not_o learn_v this_o do_v overshoote_v himself_o and_o herein_o also_o many_o deceive_v themselves_o which_o think_v they_o have_v no_o faith_n because_o they_o have_v no_o feel_n for_o the_o chief_a feeling_n that_o we_o must_v have_v in_o this_o life_n must_v be_v the_o feel_n of_o our_o sin_n &_o the_o misery_n of_o this_o life_n &_o though_o we_o have_v no_o other_o feel_n at_o all_o yet_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n deal_n with_o thomas_n we_o may_v consider_v three_o action_n 20.27_o the_o first_o that_o he_o speak_v to_o thomas_n alone_o and_o answer_v he_o according_a to_o the_o very_a word_n which_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o he_o in_o his_o absence_n and_o that_o word_n for_o word_n and_o by_o this_o he_o labour_v to_o overthrow_v his_o unbelief_n and_o to_o convince_v he_o that_o be_v absent_a he_o know_v what_o he_o speak_v and_o by_o this_o we_o learn_v that_o though_o we_o want_v the_o bodily_a presence_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v now_o in_o heaven_n yet_o he_o know_v well_o what_o we_o say_v and_o if_o need_n be_v can_v repeat_v all_o our_o say_n word_n by_o word_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o how_o can_v it_o be_v true_a that_o we_o must_v give_v a_o account_n of_o every_o idle_a word_n now_o this_o must_v teach_v we_o to_o look_v that_o our_o speech_n be_v gracious_a according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n holy_a word_n second_o this_o must_v make_v we_o willing_a and_o cheerful_a to_o direct_v our_o prayer_n to_o christ_n consider_v he_o know_v what_o we_o pray_v for_o and_o hear_v every_o word_n we_o speak_v the_o second_o action_n be_v that_o christ_n condescend_v to_o thomas_n and_o give_v he_o liberty_n to_o feel_v the_o print_n of_o the_o nail_n and_o to_o put_v his_o finger_n into_o his_o side_n he_o may_v have_v reject_v thomas_n for_o his_o wilfulness_n yet_o to_o help_v his_o unbelief_n he_o yield_v unto_o his_o weakness_n this_o show_v that_o christ_n be_v most_o compassionate_a to_o all_o ●hose_n that_o unfeigned_o repent_v they_o of_o their_o sin_n and_o cleave_v unto_o he_o although_o they_o do_v it_o lade_v with_o manifold_a want_n david_n say_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v compassion_n on_o all_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o 103.13_o as_o a_o father_n have_v compassion_n on_o his_o child_n and_o he_o add_v the_o reason_n for_o he_o know_v of_o what_o we_o be_v make_v and_o the_o prophet_n isai_n 42.3_o he_o will_v not_o break_v the_o bruise_a reed_n and_o smoke_a flax_n he_o will_v not_o quench_v when_o a_o child_n be_v very_o sick_a insomuch_o that_o it_o cast_v up_o all_o the_o meat_n which_o it_o take_v the_o mother_n will_v not_o be_v offend_v thereat_o but_o rather_o pity_v it_o now_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v ten_o thousand_o time_n more_o merciful_a to_o they_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o than_o any_o mother_n be_v or_o can_v be_v the_o three_o action_n be_v that_o when_o thomas_n have_v see_v and_o feel_v the_o wound_n christ_n revive_v his_o faith_n whereupon_o he_o break_v forth_o and_o say_v 20.28_o my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n in_o which_o word_n he_o do_v most_o notable_o bewail_v his_o blindness_n and_o unbelief_n and_o as_o a_o fire_n that_o have_v be_v smother_v so_o do_v his_o faith_n burst_v forth_o and_o show_v itself_o and_o in_o this_o example_n of_o thomas_n we_o may_v see_v the_o state_n of_o god_n people_n in_o this_o life_n first_o god_n give_v they_o faith_n yet_o afterward_o for_o a_o time_n he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v hide_v the_o same_o in_o some_o corner_n of_o their_o heart_n so_o as_o they_o have_v no_o feel_n thereof_o but_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v void_a of_o all_o grace_n and_o this_o he_o do_v for_o no_o other_o end_n but_o to_o humble_v they_o and_o yet_o again_o after_o all_o this_o the_o first_o grace_n be_v further_o renew_v and_o reviue_v thus_o deal_v the_o lord_n with_o david_n and_o solomon_n for_o whereas_o he_o be_v a_o penman_n of_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o a_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n we_o may_v not_o think_v that_o he_o be_v whole_o forsake_v with_o peter_n and_o in_o this_o place_n with_o thomas_n and_o the_o experience_n of_o this_o shall_v every_o servant_n of_o god_n find_v in_o himself_o the_o second_o appearance_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o seven_o of_o the_o disciple_n as_o they_o go_v on_o fish_v 21._o in_o which_o he_o give_v three_o testimony_n of_o his_o godheade_n and_o that_o by_o death_n his_o power_n be_v nothing_o diminish_v the_o first_o that_o when_o the_o disciple_n have_v fish_v all_o night_n and_o catch_v nothing_o afterward_o by_o his_o direction_n they_o catch_v fish_n in_o abundance_n and_o that_o present_o this_o teach_v we_o that_o christ_n be_v a_o sovereign_a lord_n over_o all_o creature_n and_o have_v the_o dispose_n of_o they_o in_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o that_o if_o good_a success_n follow_v not_o when_o man_n be_v painful_a in_o their_o calling_n it_o be_v because_o god_n will_v prepare_v and_o make_v they_o fit_v for_o a_o further_a blessing_n christ_n come_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o give_v his_o disciple_n a_o great_a draught_n of_o fish_n yet_o before_o this_o can_v be_v they_o must_v labour_v all_o night_n in_o vain_a joseph_n must_v be_v make_v ruler_n over_o all_o egypt_n but_o first_o he_o must_v be_v cast_v into_o a_o dungeon_n where_o he_o can_v see_v no_o sun_n nor_o light_n to_o prepare_v he_o to_o that_o honour_n and_o david_n must_v be_v king_n over_o israel_n but_o the_o lord_n will_v first_o prepare_v he_o hereunto_o by_o raise_v up_o saul_n to_o persecute_v he_o therefore_o when_o god_n send_v any_o hindrance_n unto_o we_o in_o our_o calling_n we_o must_v not_o despair_v nor_o be_v discourage_v for_o they_o be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o god_n make_v we_o fit_n to_o receive_v great_a blessing_n at_o his_o hand_n either_o in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v the_o second_o be_v that_o the_o net_n be_v unbroken_a though_o it_o have_v in_o it_o great_a fish_n to_o the_o number_n of_o a_o hundred_o fifty_o three_o the_o three_o that_o when_o the_o disciple_n come_v to_o land_n they_o see_v ●otte_a coal_n and_o fish_n lay_v thereon_o and_o bread_n now_o some_o may_v ask_v whence_o be_v this_o food_n answer_n the_o same_o lord_n that_o be_v able_a to_o provide_v a_o whale_n to_o swallow_v up_o jonas_n and_o so_o to_o save_v he_o and_o he_o that_o be_v able_a to_o provide_v a_o fish_n for_o peter_n angle_n with_o a_o piece_n of_o twenty_o penny_n in_o the_o mouth_n and_o to_o make_v a_o little_a bread_n and_o a_o few_o fish_n to_o feed_v so_o many_o thousand_o in_o the_o wilderness_n the_o same_o also_o do_v of_o himself_o provide_v bread_n and_o fish_n for_o his_o disciple_n this_o teach_v we_o that_o not_o only_o the_o blessing_n but_o also_o the_o very_a have_v of_o meat_n drink_n apparel_n be_v from_o christ_n and_o hereupon_o all_o state_n of_o man_n even_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v teach_v to_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o their_o daily_a bread_n again_o when_o we_o sit_v down_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v this_o must_v put_v we_o in_o mind_n that_o we_o be_v the_o guest_n of_o christ_n himself_o our_o food_n which_o we_o have_v come_v of_o his_o mere_a gift_n and_o he_o it_o be_v that_o entertain_v we_o if_o we_o can_v see_v it_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n we_o must_v sober_o and_o with_o great_a reverence_n in_o fear_n and_o tremble_a use_n all_o god_n creature_n as_o in_o his_o presence_n and_o when_o we_o eat_v and_o drink_v we_o must_v always_o look_v that_o all_o our_o speech_n be_v such_o as_o may_v beseem_v the_o guest_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ._n usual_o the_o common_a practice_n of_o man_n be_v far_o otherwise_o for_o in_o feast_v many_o take_v liberty_n to_o surfeit_v and_o to_o be_v drink_v to_o swear_v and_o to_o blaspheme_v but_o if_o we_o serve_v the_o lord_n let_v we_o remember_v who_o guest_n we_o be_v and_o who_o be_v our_o entertainer_n and_o so_o behave_v ourselves_o as_o be_v in_o his_o presence_n that_o all_o our_o action_n and_o word_n may_v tend_v to_o his_o glory_n the_o third_o appearance_n be_v to_o james_n as_o saint_n paul_n record_v 15.7_o although_o the_o same_o be_v not_o mention_v in_o any_o of_o the_o evangelist_n the_o four_o be_v to_o all_o his_o disciple_n in_o a_o mountain_n whither_o he_o have_v appoint_v they_o to_o come_v 28.16_o the_o five_o and_o last_o appearance_n be_v in_o the_o mount_n of_o olive_n 5._o when_o he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n of_o these_o three_o last_o appearance_n
