the_o argument_n carry_v more_o strength_n be_v willing_a and_o ready_a to_o do_v all_o christian_a office_n of_o love_n and_o show_v tender_a respect_n to_o little_a one_o and_o so_o receive_v they_o and_o you_o shall_v receive_v not_o angel_n but_o christ_n himself_o how_o willing_o woo_a man_n receive_v christ_n receive_v these_o and_o you_o receive_v he_o and_o if_o little_a one_o must_v be_v thus_o tender_o receive_v and_o regard_v how_o wary_a shall_v man_n be_v of_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v offend_v they_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o only_o advise_v to_o receive_v such_o but_o also_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v prove_v unto_o young_a believer_n matter_n of_o offence_n &_o scandal_n and_o so_o he_o take_v occasion_n to_o enter_v upon_o a_o large_a discourse_n concern_v scandal_n this_o verse_n be_v part_n of_o that_o discourse_n and_o in_o it_o there_o be_v two_o principal_a point_n 1._o the_o necessity_n of_o scandal_n 2._o the_o mischief_n 1._o the_o necessity_n of_o scandal_n for_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o offence_n come_v 2._o the_o mischief_n and_o the_o misery_n that_o come_v by_o they_o and_o that_o be_v a_o twofold_a woe_n 1._o a_o woe_n to_o such_o as_o be_v scandalize_v that_o do_v stumble_v and_o be_v offend_v woe_n to_o the_o world_n because_o of_o offence_n offence_n shall_v come_v and_o must_v come_v but_o to_o the_o sorrow_n and_o smart_n of_o some_o man_n shall_v they_o come_v they_o shall_v come_v to_o make_v way_n for_o the_o great_a woe_n to_o some_o person_n such_o event_n shall_v be_v but_o yet_o they_o will_v prove_v event_n of_o woe_n to_o man_n of_o the_o world_n 2._o a_o woe_n to_o such_o as_o do_v cause_n and_o give_v the_o offence_n but_o woe_n to_o the_o man_n by_o who_o the_o offence_n come_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o offence_n come_v and_o infallible_o they_o will_v fall_v out_o but_o yet_o this_o necessity_n of_o the_o event_n shall_v no_o whit_n at_o all_o excuse_n or_o protect_v the_o offender_n but_o as_o a_o woe_n to_o they_o that_o take_v the_o offence_n so_o a_o woe_n to_o they_o that_o give_v the_o offence_n woe_n to_o he_o by_o who_o the_o offence_n come_v to_o make_v way_n for_o what_o follow_v it_o be_v fit_a to_o consider_v what_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o scandal_n or_o offence_n that_o we_o call_v a_o scandal_n which_o be_v or_o may_v be_v in_o itself_o a_o occasion_n of_o fall_v unto_o another_o any_o thing_n whereby_o we_o so_o offend_v another_o as_o that_o he_o be_v hinder_v from_o good_a draw_v into_o or_o confirm_v in_o evil_a be_v a_o scandal_n now_o a_o scandal_n may_v be_v 1._o first_o in_o doctrine_n and_o this_o be_v scandal_n give_v in_o heresy_n false_a doctrine_n second_o by_o the_o abuse_n or_o the_o unseasonable_a use_n of_o christian_a liberty_n of_o which_o kind_n of_o scandal_n the_o apostle_n speak_v rom._n 14._o 1._o cor._n 8._o 10._o three_o scandal_n may_v be_v give_v by_o man_n life_n when_o their_o life_n and_o action_n be_v such_o as_o cross_v and_o thwart_v the_o religion_n profess_v by_o we_o and_o dishonour_v the_o name_n of_o god_n which_o we_o have_v take_v up_o as_o when_o a_o man_n profess_v the_o name_n &_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o profess_v it_o zealous_o and_o yet_o fall_v into_o uncleanness_n drunkenness_n into_o gross_a and_o notorious_a act_n of_o fraud_n and_o cozenage_n these_o be_v scandal_n and_o offence_n because_o they_o be_v occasion_n to_o make_v other_o fall_v they_o hinder_v some_o from_o come_v towards_o goodness_n and_o religion_n and_o they_o harden_v and_o confirm_v some_o in_o their_o sinful_a and_o evil_a course_n thus_o david_n murder_n and_o adultery_n noah_n drunkenness_n the_o incestuous_a corinthian_n marriage_n be_v scandalous_a action_n now_o though_o this_o text_n reach_v to_o offence_n of_o all_o kind_n yet_o i_o will_v only_o meddle_v with_o offence_n of_o this_o last_o kind_n such_o as_o be_v the_o gross_a and_o foul_a course_n and_o practice_n of_o any_o such_o as_o have_v take_v upon_o they_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v then_o to_o the_o first_o point_n the_o necessity_n of_o scandal_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o offence_n come_v the●e_n must_v and_o there_o shall_v assure_o fall_v out_o scandalous_a and_o offensive_a action_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n even_o among_o those_o that_o profess_v religion_n and_o godliness_n for_o that_o our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o the_o sin_n of_o those_o that_o be_v in_o the_o church_n it_o be_v plain_a by_o that_o verse_n 15_o 16_o 17._o if_o thy_o brother_n shall_v trespass_v etc._n etc._n therefore_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o offence_n of_o brethren_n if_o he_o shall_v neglect_v to_o hear_v they_o tell_v it_o to_o the_o church_n now_o if_o not_o of_o the_o church_n why_o shall_v he_o be_v complain_v of_o to_o the_o church_n what_o have_v the_o church_n to_o do_v to_o judge_v those_o and_o exercise_v discipline_n upon_o those_o that_o be_v without_o and_o again_o scandal_v proper_o so_o call_v can_v be_v no_o where_o but_o in_o the_o church_n and_o among_o such_o as_o profess_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n chap._n ii_o the_o necessity_n of_o scandalous_a event_n in_o god_n church_n the_o point_n we_o have_v then_o first_o to_o handle_v be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o scandalous_a event_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n that_o scandalous_a event_n and_o offence_n shall_v assure_o and_o infallible_o fall_v out_o among_o those_o that_o profess_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n it_o must_v be_v and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o offence_n come_v so_o luke_n 17._o 1._o it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o offence_n shall_v come_v and_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o heresy_n and_o of_o offence_n give_v in_o that_o kind_n 1._o cor._n 11._o 19_o there_o must_v be_v heresy_n so_o be_v it_o true_a of_o these_o kind_n of_o offence_n which_o be_v give_v by_o sinful_a and_o foul_a action_n that_o there_o must_v be_v scandal_n this_o necessity_n arise_v from_o a_o threefold_a ground_n 1._o from_o the_o decree_n and_o council_n of_o god_n and_o his_o secret_n but_o most_o just_a judgement_n for_o god_n that_o bring_v light_a out_o of_o darkness_n can_v bring_v good_a out_o of_o evil_a and_o can_v work_v out_o his_o glory_n even_o from_o those_o thing_n which_o in_o their_o event_n seem_v to_o make_v exceed_o to_o the_o impeach_a and_o obscure_v thereof_o god_n can_v gather_v grape_n of_o these_o thistle_n and_o fig_n of_o these_o thorn_n and_o therefore_o his_o pleasure_n it_o be_v and_o so_o will_v he_o have_v it_o that_o such_o thorn_n and_o thistle_n shall_v grow_v and_o come_v up_o in_o his_o garden_n his_o way_n be_v not_o as_o our_o way_n nor_o his_o thought_n as_o our_o thought_n he_o can_v make_v that_o which_o for_o the_o present_a and_o in_o our_o eye_n and_o apprehension_n be_v for_o the_o great_a dishonour_n and_o disgrace_n of_o his_o name_n and_o truth_n to_o turn_v at_o the_o last_o to_o the_o great_a honour_n and_o glory_n of_o both_o he_o by_o his_o permissive_a decree_n order_v all_o such_o scandalous_a event_n to_o work_v together_o to_o bring_v he_o in_o a_o great_a and_o a_o rich_a return_n of_o glory_n therefore_o ezek._n 3._o 20._o god_n be_v say_v to_o lay_v a_o stumble_a block_n before_o a_o man_n and_o i_o lay_v a_o stumble_a block_n before_o he_o god_n have_v decree_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v scandal_n not_o a_o sparrow_n fall_v on_o the_o ground_n without_o our_o father_n math._n 10._o 29._o and_o therefore_o not_o a_o professor_n of_o his_o name_n fall_v into_o scandal_n without_o he_o and_o therefore_o god_n have_v decree_v that_o scandal_n shall_v be_v there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o the_o event_n it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v offence_n but_o yet_o this_o decree_n do_v in_o no_o wise_n make_v god_n the_o author_n of_o these_o evil_n because_o his_o decree_n have_v no_o necessitate_v influence_n into_o the_o will_n of_o man_n it_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o infallibility_n and_o certainty_n of_o the_o event_n but_o not_o a_o constrain_a force_a necessity_n to_o make_v they_o to_o do_v that_o which_o shall_v give_v scandal_n scandal_n shall_v necessary_o that_o be_v infallible_o come_v to_o pass_v but_o yet_o such_o as_o give_v scandal_n shall_v not_o be_v force_v and_o necessary_o constrain_v by_o the_o decree_n of_o god_n to_o do_v that_o they_o do_v they_o shall_v work_v free_o and_o voluntary_o in_o that_o which_o they_o do_v or_o else_o it_o be_v injustice_n in_o god_n to_o bring_v a_o woe_n upon_o he_o by_o who_o a_o offence_n come_v if_o he_o by_o a_o superior_a power_n from_o
