saviour_n all_o people_n seek_v after_o every_o man_n make_v unto_o himself_o some_o god_n or_o other_o 1.32_o exod._n 1.32_o make_v we_o god_n to_o go_v before_o we_o say_v the_o people_n to_o aaron_n but_o few_o there_o be_v that_o seek_v after_o the_o saviour_n the_o isralite_n seek_v after_o a_o christ_n when_o they_o seek_v he_o in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n but_o can_v never_o find_v he_o 9.32_o rom._n 9.32_o but_o the_o gentile_n which_o seek_v he_o by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n find_v the_o christ_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n it_o be_v say_v i_o be_v find_v of_o they_o that_o seek_v i_o not_o now_o if_o the_o queen_n and_o concubine_n do_v bless_v and_o praise_v themselves_o as_o in_o heart_n they_o do_v in_o seek_v after_o a_o christ_n then_o they_o do_v also_o bless_v and_o praise_v the_o bride_n in_o seek_v after_o the_o christ_n also_o if_o it_o be_v good_a in_o they_o as_o in_o their_o opinion_n it_o be_v good_a to_o seek_v for_o a_o christ_n than_o it_o be_v also_o good_a and_o very_a good_a in_o the_o bride_n to_o seek_v for_o the_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o true_a christ_n indeed_o they_o all_o agree_v in_o word_n gospel_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o man_n to_o live_v in_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n but_o to_o seek_v for_o a_o christ_n in_o the_o law_n be_v to_o deny_v the_o gospel_n that_o jesus_n be_v the_o true_a christ_n but_o the_o question_n be_v how_o to_o seek_v he_o so_o as_o to_o find_v he_o the_o queen_n and_o concubine_n say_v thou_o must_v live_v in_o a_o active_a conformity_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n then_o shall_v thou_o have_v a_o evidence_n of_o thy_o faith_n in_o christ_n but_o the_o bride_n say_v in_o the_o first_o place_n thou_o must_v seek_v he_o by_o faith_n without_o the_o law_n otherwise_o thou_o must_v die_v in_o thy_o sin_n for_o so_o say_v christ_n to_o the_o jew_n you_o shall_v seek_v i_o and_o not_o find_v i_o 3._o joh._n 3._o and_o shall_v die_v in_o your_o sin_n this_o show_v we_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o daughter_n the_o queen_n and_o concubine_n be_v so_o earnest_a in_o press_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n why_o they_o require_v it_o of_o necessity_n under_o the_o penalty_n of_o everlasting_a damnation_n and_o also_o why_o they_o be_v so_o rigid_a so_o severe_a and_o look_v so_o lofty_o upon_o those_o poor_a creature_n that_o have_v gross_o break_v the_o law_n as_o if_o they_o themselves_o be_v make_v of_o pure_a metal_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o seek_v for_o a_o christ_n in_o the_o law_n and_o also_o it_o show_v we_o why_o the_o godly_a can_v submit_v give_v place_n to_o all_o do_v not_o count_v themselves_o for_o a_o rule_n for_o all_o man_n to_o conform_v unto_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o outward_a carriage_n but_o be_v willing_a to_o yield_v to_o obey_v not_o to_o separate_v themselves_o from_o sinner_n but_o to_o equalise_v themselves_o with_o the_o worst_a to_o show_v kindness_n and_o respect_n to_o all_o to_o friend_n and_o foe_n good_a and_o bad_a worthy_a and_o unworthy_a on_o purpose_n to_o gain_v their_o heart_n and_o win_v their_o affection_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o love_v and_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o have_v find_v thou_o christ_n the_o true_a messiah_n without_o the_o law_n hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o when_o the_o daughter_n come_v to_o die_v for_o want_n of_o a_o right_a understanding_n in_o this_o point_n and_o sin_n begin_v to_o appear_v in_o the_o conscience_n they_o know_v not_o how_o to_o fasten_v upon_o any_o one_o promise_n nor_o to_o pray_v with_o any_o manner_n of_o confidence_n but_o be_v even_o force_v to_o cry_v out_o with_o those_o that_o have_v crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n 2.37_o act_n 2.37_o man_n and_o brethren_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v to_o be_v save_v all_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v because_o they_o have_v spend_v all_o their_o time_n in_o seek_v for_o a_o christ_n a_o suppose_a a_o imaginary_a christ_n but_o none_o for_o the_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o true_a christ_n indeed_o according_a to_o s._n paul_n the_o gentile_n which_o follow_v not_o righteousness_n have_v attain_v to_o righteousness_n even_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n but_o israel_n which_o follow_v after_o righteousness_n 9.30_o rom._n 9.30_o have_v not_o attain_v to_o the_o law_n of_o righteousness_n because_o they_o seek_v it_o not_o by_o faith_n but_o in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o see_v christ_n say_v here_o that_o the_o daughter_n bless_v she_o also_o that_o the_o queen_n and_o concubine_n by_o their_o practice_n praise_v she_o in_o seek_v after_o a_o christ_n which_o they_o seek_v only_o in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o find_v he_o let_v we_o learn_v right_o to_o seek_v after_o christ_n by_o faith_n that_o so_o when_o we_o seek_v he_o we_o may_v not_o seek_v he_o in_o vain_a verse_n x._o who_o be_v she_o that_o look_v forth_o as_o the_o morning_n by_o look_v forth_o as_o the_o morning_n christ_n mean_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n for_o even_o as_o the_o night_n be_v a_o time_n of_o darkness_n and_o while_o the_o darkness_n remain_v no_o man_n can_v tell_v whether_o he_o go_v so_o before_o the_o gospel_n come_v there_o be_v nothing_o but_o abominable_a darkness_n blindness_n and_o blasphemy_n in_o the_o world_n and_o also_o as_o when_o the_o morning_n come_v it_o expel_v darkness_n and_o bring_v light_a so_o the_o gospel_n be_v that_o bright_a and_o morning_n star_n that_o send_v into_o the_o world_n the_o light_n of_o life_n the_o gospel_n do_v not_o find_v man_n holy_a but_o make_v they_o holy_a for_o the_o morning_n do_v not_o find_v man_n light_a but_o bring_v the_o light_n therefore_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o to_o be_v so_o preach_v to_o a_o people_n as_o if_o they_o be_v all_o believer_n before_o only_o show_v they_o how_o they_o shall_v walk_v in_o the_o world_n but_o so_o teach_v that_o it_o may_v make_v believer_n therefore_o christ_n say_v as_o long_o as_o i_o be_o in_o the_o world_n i_o be_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n which_o can_v not_o be_v if_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o teach_v we_o a_o certainty_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o how_o can_v that_o be_v a_o light_n unto_o i_o that_o only_o require_v certain_a thing_n to_o be_v believe_v and_o do_v if_o it_o do_v not_o also_o show_v i_o a_o certain_a way_n how_o i_o may_v attain_v the_o same_o this_o light_n we_o have_v by_o the_o gospel_n which_o make_v a_o merry_a heart_n and_o a_o joyful_a conscience_n let_v we_o learn_v then_o so_o to_o hear_v and_o understand_v the_o gospel_n that_o we_o may_v come_v under_o this_o note_n of_o admiration_n and_o also_o that_o by_o the_o shine_a light_n of_o that_o bright_a and_o morningstar_n we_o may_v learn_v to_o cast_v off_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n and_o to_o put_v on_o the_o armour_n of_o light_n fair_a as_o the_o moon_n the_o church_n be_v liken_v to_o the_o moon_n because_o her_o brightness_n be_v by_o a_o borrow_a light_n even_o from_o christ_n the_o sun_n of_o righteousness_n and_o fountain_n of_o light_n and_o this_o light_n she_o preach_v in_o the_o world_n and_o also_o because_o as_o the_o moon_n she_o shine_v in_o the_o night_n and_o be_v create_v to_o rule_v the_o night_n for_o god_n set_v two_o great_a light_n in_o the_o firmament_n of_o heaven_n to_o give_v light_n upon_o the_o earth_n 1._o gen._n 1._o the_o great_a light_n to_o rule_v the_o day_n and_o the_o lesser_a light_n to_o rule_v the_o night_n for_o although_o the_o moon_n have_v her_o defect_n and_o rise_n sometime_o increase_v and_o be_v sometime_o more_o obscure_a appear_v in_o divers_a form_n and_o figure_n in_o the_o firmament_n yet_o be_v she_o a_o planet_n create_v to_o rule_v the_o night_n therefore_o the_o bride_n be_v here_o liken_v to_o the_o moon_n because_o she_o be_v set_v to_o give_v light_n upon_o the_o earth_n and_o because_o by_o the_o light_n that_o she_o give_v she_o be_v to_o rule_v the_o night_n she_o give_v not_o her_o own_o light_n upon_o the_o earth_n which_o she_o have_v natural_o but_o a_o

for_o a_o time_n the_o light_n of_o the_o moon_n may_v be_v hide_v yet_o as_o soon_o as_o she_o appear_v the_o darkness_n expel_v now_o in_o that_o the_o light_n of_o this_o heavenly_a planet_n be_v

understanding_n the_o other_o be_v the_o mountain_n of_o despair_n which_o stand_v in_o a_o false_a opinion_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o even_o as_o before_o a_o man_n be_v humble_v he_o presume_v
