encouragement_n to_o this_o duty_n of_o bear_v the_o reproach_n of_o the_o wicked_a patient_o first_o no_o false_a report_n of_o man_n can_v take_v away_o god_n love_n from_o they_o when_o the_o

as_o odious_a as_o they_o can_v yet_o all_o their_o plot_v against_o they_o can_v take_v they_o out_o of_o god_n heart_n second_o consider_v this_o be_v a_o less_o affliction_n than_o god_n may_v lay_v upon_o they_o god_n may_v try_v they_o with_o other_o manner_n of_o suffering_n than_o these_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v you_o have_v not_o yet_o resist_v unto_o blood_n strive_v against_o

that_o god_n make_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o wicked_a as_o a_o warn_n against_o such_o and_o such_o a_o sin_n second_o it_o be_v for_o instruction_n to_o all_o those_o that_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o

consider_v what_o a_o great_a sin_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o the_o 9th_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o bear_v false_a witness_n against_o thy_o neighbour_n it_o be_v a_o sin_n make_v a_o
