god_n so_o we_o shall_v return_v all_o to_o he_o again_o by_o public_a thankfulness_n for_o they_o as_o paul_n say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o we_o shall_v turn_v from_o these_o vain_a idol_n to_o the_o live_a god_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o sea_n and_o all_o that_o therein_o be_v because_o he_o make_v they_o therefore_o we_o shall_v go_v back_o again_o in_o the_o consideration_n of_o it_o and_o return_v thanks_n to_o he_o three_o 3_o see_v god_n make_v all_o thing_n we_o shall_v not_o look_v upon_o his_o work_n without_o great_a consideration_n of_o they_o as_o his_o work_n of_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n if_o a_o workman_n make_v a_o excellent_a work_n it_o be_v a_o great_a indignity_n simile_n and_o injury_n offer_v to_o the_o workman_n to_o pass_v by_o it_o slight_a it_o not_o to_o look_v on_o it_o or_o regard_v it_o so_o see_v the_o lord_n have_v hang_v as_o it_o be_v the_o chamber_n of_o this_o world_n with_o many_o goodly_a work_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o judgement_n it_o be_v a_o great_a injury_n and_o indignity_n offer_v unto_o god_n for_o man_n to_o pass_v by_o they_o and_o never_o to_o look_v upon_o they_o so_o god_n complain_v psal_n 28._o 5._o because_o they_o regard_v not_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n nor_o the_o operation_n of_o his_o hand_n therefore_o he_o shall_v break_v they_o down_o and_o not_o build_v they_o up_o so_o it_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n to_o pass_v by_o his_o wondrous_a work_n and_o not_o to_o look_v upon_o they_o and_o consider_v of_o they_o the_o three_o point_n be_v all_o how_o he_o make_v they_o by_o no_o instrument_n but_o by_o his_o word_n as_o psal_n 33._o 6._o by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o heaven_n and_o all_o the_o host_n of_o they_o by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n all_o now_o we_o be_v not_o to_o think_v it_o be_v a_o vocal_a word_n of_o god_n but_o it_o be_v his_o commandment_n psal_n 33._o 9_o for_o he_o speak_v and_o it_o be_v do_v he_o command_v and_o it_o stand_v or_o be_v create_v so_o psal_n 148._o 5._o he_o command_v and_o they_o be_v create_v solomon_n when_o he_o build_v the_o temple_n have_v thousand_o of_o workman_n to_o do_v it_o but_o god_n when_o he_o make_v the_o world_n make_v it_o with_o his_o word_n therefore_o we_o may_v see_v the_o excellent_a power_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o let_v he_o but_o speak_v and_o there_o be_v a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o earth_n and_o a_o sea_n and_o sky_n and_o beast_n and_o bird_n for_o the_o use_n of_o man_n 1_o therefore_o the_o centurion_n say_v well_o matthew_n 8._o do_v but_o speak_v the_o word_n and_o thy_o servant_n shall_v be_v whole_a so_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o excellent_a power_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o if_o he_o say_v to_o sickness_n depart_v it_o shall_v depart_v if_o to_o health_n come_v it_o shall_v come_v look_v what_o god_n speak_v shall_v be_v do_v as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n he_o send_v out_o his_o word_n and_o heal_v they_o second_o 2._o see_v god_n make_v the_o world_n with_o a_o word_n we_o may_v wonder_v at_o our_o untowardness_n that_o there_o be_v never_o a_o creature_n save_o man_n but_o do_v yield_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n have_v speak_v ten_o word_n in_o his_o law_n nay_o many_o more_o in_o the_o gospel_n unto_o we_o and_o yet_o what_o ado_n be_v there_o a_o almighty_a power_n must_v join_v with_o the_o word_n to_o bring_v a_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n therefore_o we_o may_v wonder_v at_o our_o untowardness_n that_o the_o creature_n yield_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o sinful_a man_n can_v submit_v to_o a_o thousand_o word_n of_o god_n to_o bring_v he_o to_o repentance_n the_o four_o point_n be_v of_o what_o he_o make_v the_o world_n of_o and_o that_o be_v of_o nothing_o hebrew_n 11._o 3._o through_o faith_n we_o understand_v that_o the_o world_n be_v make_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o that_o the_o thing_n we_o see_v be_v make_v of_o thing_n that_o do_v not_o appear_v philosopher_n say_v of_o nothing_o nothing_o can_v he_o make_v it_o be_v true_a in_o nature_n but_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o god_n power_n in_o nature_n indeed_o there_o be_v no_o artificer_n that_o can_v make_v any_o thing_n unless_o he_o have_v matter_n to_o make_v it_o of_o as_o a_o smith_n can_v work_v without_o iron_n and_o a_o mason_n must_v have_v stone_n and_o a_o carpenter_n must_v have_v timber_n but_o god_n be_v able_a to_o make_v all_o thing_n of_o nothing_o the_o use_n be_v first_o 1_o that_o see_v god_n do_v make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o he_o be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o man_n somewhat_o when_o he_o be_v nothing_o he_o be_v able_a to_o give_v grace_n where_o there_o be_v none_o to_o create_v faith_n where_o there_o be_v no_o faith_n and_o to_o work_v repentance_n where_o there_o be_v none_o so_o say_v paul_n 2_o cor._n 4._o 6._o for_o god_n who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o if_o god_n be_v able_a to_o make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o he_o be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o man_n something_o that_o be_v nothing_o in_o himself_o second_o 2._o see_v god_n be_v able_a to_o make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o he_o be_v able_a when_o we_o be_v nothing_o in_o our_o worldly_a estate_n to_o raise_v we_o up_o of_o nothing_o and_o to_o make_v we_o great_a man_n in_o the_o world_n so_o faith_n hanna_n 1_o sam._n 2._o 6_o 7._o the_o lord_n kill_v &_o make_v alive_a bring_v down_o to_o the_o grave_n and_o raise_v up_o the_o lord_n make_v poor_a and_o make_v rich_a bring_v low_a and_o exali_v he_o raise_v the_o poor_a out_o of_o the_o dust_n and_o lift_v up_o the_o beggar_n from_o the_o dunghill_n to_o set_v they_o among_o prince_n three_o 3_o see_v god_n make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o so_o let_v we_o know_v the_o world_n will_v dissolve_v and_o come_v to_o nothing_o again_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o uphold_v it_o for_o natural_o all_o thing_n dissolve_v into_o that_o they_o be_v make_v of_o as_o a_o man_n make_v of_o dust_n so_o natural_o turn_v and_o come_v to_o dust_n again_o so_o ice_n be_v make_v of_o water_n it_o turn_v to_o water_n again_o and_o snow_n be_v make_v of_o rain_n it_o dissolve_v to_o it_o again_o simile_n so_o the_o world_n be_v make_v of_o nothing_o will_v come_v to_o nothing_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o uphold_v it_o therefore_o how_o much_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o god_n for_o every_o hour_n continuance_n of_o this_o world_n which_o heb._n 1._o 3._o be_v say_v to_o be_v uphold_v by_o his_o mighty_a power_n and_o word_n four_o see_v he_o make_v the_o world_n of_o nothing_o we_o may_v see_v the_o mean_n of_o our_o beginning_n 4._o that_o it_o be_v of_o nothing_o and_o therefore_o howsoever_o some_o swell_v with_o greatness_n of_o their_o ancestor_n and_o of_o their_o nobility_n yet_o we_o see_v the_o meanness_n of_o our_o beginning_n we_o come_v of_o nothing_o therefore_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o humble_v we_o how_o great_a soever_o we_o be_v abraham_n he_o confess_v he_o be_v but_o dust_n this_o do_v humble_v he_o and_o be_v know_v the_o dust_n be_v make_v of_o nothing_o which_o shall_v serve_v to_o humble_v we_o in_o that_o all_o our_o greatness_n come_v of_o nothing_o the_o five_o point_n be_v world_n ●_o what_o estate_n god_n make_v this_o world_n in_o in_o exceed_o good_a estate_n genesis_n 1._o 25._o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o creature_n that_o be_v not_o good_a or_o have_v any_o defect_n in_o it_o we_o be_v to_o thank_v ourselves_o and_o our_o own_o sin_n as_o we_o see_v in_o a_o clock_n simile_n if_o there_o be_v any_o alteration_n or_o stop_v in_o the_o little_a wheel_n it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v first_o a_o stop_n in_o the_o great_a wheel_n for_o the_o little_a one_o do_v depend_v on_o the_o great_a wheel_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o stand_n in_o that_o there_o be_v a_o stand_n in_o the_o little_a wheel_n in_o like_a manner_n if_o there_o be_v any_o defect_n in_o the_o creature_n or_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o be_v not_o good_a it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v a_o defect_n and_o a_o fail_n in_o we_o for_o man_n be_v as_o the_o great_a wheel_n of_o the_o clock_n therefore_o if_o he_o be_v out_o of_o order_n no_o marvel_n though_o the_o creature_n be_v so_o also_o hence_o we_o may_v learn_v that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o which_o be_v not_o good_a or_o have_v defect_n in_o they_o we_o may_v

well_o at_o first_o and_o have_v the_o success_n we_o desire_v yet_o we_o must_v not_o give_v over_o but_o to_o it_o again_o and_o again_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n that_o if_o thing_n do_v not_o succeed_v well_o at_o the_o first_o they_o give_v over_o a_o good_a cause_n and_o be_v discourage_v as_o hag._n 1._o when_o the_o jew_n be_v hinder_v from_o build_v the_o temple_n straightway_o they_o leave_v off_o so_o man_n be_v quick_o discourage_v in_o good_a course_n but_o it_o must_v be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o a_o christian_a though_o thing_n do_v not_o succeed_v present_o yet_o to_o go_v on_o again_o and_o again_o this_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o pilate_n and_o must_v be_v our_o wisdom_n also_o as_o it_o be_v observe_v of_o the_o spider_n proverb_n that_o although_o

a_o christian_a though_o he_o do_v not_o succeed_v well_o in_o a_o good_a course_n and_o in_o his_o labour_n at_o first_o yet_o he_o must_v not_o give_v over_o but_o to_o it_o again_o and_o again_o as_o long_o as_o there_o be_v life_n in_o he_o the_o three_o time_n time_n when_o he_o labour_v to_o free_a christ_n be_v when_o he_o join_v christ_n and_o barrabas_n together_o think_v by_o this_o

fault_n in_o he_o it_o be_v against_o my_o conscience_n to_o put_v he_o to_o death_n therefore_o he_o take_v water_n and_o wash_v his_o hand_n but_o yet_o he_o can_v not_o clear_v himself_o from_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n all_o the_o water_n in_o the_o sea_n be_v not_o able_a to_o wash_v he_o clean_o now_o there_o be_v some_o that_o have_v their_o hand_n as_o deep_a as_o pilate_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n i_o do_v not_o say_v it_o of_o myself_o but_o the_o apostle_n paul_n tell_v we_o as_o much_o hebr._n 6._o 5_o 6._o that_o they_o which_o have_v taste_v of_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v if_o they_o fall_v away_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v renew_v again_o by_o repentance_n see_v they_o crucify_v

heed_n thou_o have_v thy_o hand_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o four_o time_n be_v time_n when_o they_o cry_v crucify_v he_o crucify_v he_o i_o but_o pilate_n will_v not_o do_v it_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v the_o magistrate_n who_o have_v power_n in_o his_o hand_n to_o do_v it_o which_o must_v teach_v we_o that_o although_o there_o be_v a_o power_n in_o our_o hand_n to_o do_v hurt_v unto_o our_o neighbour_n yet_o we_o must_v not_o do_v it_o as_o it_o be_v proverb_n 3._o withhold_v not_o good_a from_o they_o to_o who_o it_o be_v due_a when_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o thy_o

labour_n to_o clear_a christ_n which_o show_v his_o innocence_n that_o he_o die_v a_o innocent_a man_n and_o that_o not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o we_o therefore_o never_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o have_v make_v expiation_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o thou_o by_o his_o death_n now_o there_o be_v four_o particular_a mean_n that_o pilate_n use_v to_o deliver_v christ_n 2_o but_o before_o we_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o they_o christ_n we_o will_v answer_v a_o doubt_n or_o two_o that_o may_v arise_v first_o 1._o whether_o pilate_n do_v well_o to_o seek_v to_o deliver_v christ_n see_v that_o peter_n be_v reprove_v and_o reprehend_v for_o the_o same_o thing_n second_o 2_o whether_o pilate_n do_v well_o to_o labour_v to_o free_a christ_n see_v it_o do_v cross_v the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o pilate_n do_v well_o to_o seek_v to_o deliver_v christ_n but_o peter_n do_v not_o well_o because_o he_o do_v not_o seek_v to_o deliver_v christ_n by_o good_a mean_n and_o in_o due_a order_n but_o he_o will_v have_v deliver_v he_o by_o resist_v and_o fight_v for_o he_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n to_o he_o but_o pilate_n seek_v to_o deliver_v he_o by_o good_a mean_n and_o in_o due_a order_n threfore_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o he_o again_o peter_n he_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o man_n redemption_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n in_o he_o but_o pilate_n be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o who_o take_v he_o to_o be_v but_o a_o innocent_a man_n therefore_o pilate_n do_v well_o do_v deliver_v christ_n to_o the_o scond_v i_o answer_v 2._o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v twofold_a 1._o the_o will_n of_o his_o decree_n 2._o the_o will_n of_o his_o commandment_n the_o will_n of_o his_o decree_n be_v the_o dispose_n of_o every_o particular_a man_n and_o of_o the_o whole_a world_n to_o his_o best_a pleasure_n and_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v resist_v the_o will_n of_o his_o commandment_n be_v what_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o do_v now_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n indeed_o that_o christ_n shall_v die_v but_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o his_o decree_n for_o the_o will_n of_o his_o commandment_n be_v that_o when_o he_o bring_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n all_o man_n shall_v kiss_v he_o seek_v to_o he_o for_o his_o favour_n and_o do_v he_o all_o the_o honour_n that_o may_v be_v therefore_o pilate_n do_v well_o in_o endeavour_v to_o deliver_v christ_n now_o to_o draw_v this_o down_o low_a to_o ourselves_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v poor_a or_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v rich_a therefore_o must_v we_o not_o be_v idle_a and_o do_v nothing_o for_o this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n decree_n which_o be_v secret_a to_o himself_o but_o the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n the_o will_n of_o his_o command_n be_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v eat_v his_o bread_n in_o the_o sweat_n of_o his_o face_n and_o apply_v himself_o to_o the_o mean_n notwithstanding_o that_o god_n have_v appoint_v but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o mean_n that_o pilate_n use_v for_o christ_n deliverance_n the_o first_o mean_n that_o

this_o may_v serve_v as_o matter_n of_o comfort_n christ_n be_v not_o see_v at_o the_o instant_n or_o moment_n when_o he_o do_v rise_v and_o yet_o do_v show_v by_o infallible_a token_n that_o he_o

before_o the_o reason_n whereof_o be_v because_o she_o love_v her_o child_n so_o if_o there_o be_v true_a love_n among_o we_o the_o husband_n will_v bear_v with_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o wife_n

contrariwise_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o world_n if_o they_o see_v a_o great_a many_o grace_n and_o virtue_n and_o but_o one_o infirmity_n and_o weakness_n in_o one_o they_o will_v conceal_v

for_o your_o preservation_n three_o 3_o when_o the_o fault_n be_v so_o great_a that_o they_o can_v excuse_v it_o and_o so_o open_a and_o manifest_a as_o that_o they_o can_v hide_v it_o unexcusable_a yet_o still_o they_o can_v endure_v they_o wish_v well_o to_o they_o and_o pray_v for_o they_o as_o 1_o king_n 12._o 23._o when_o the_o people_n have_v sin_v against_o god_n in_o ask_v a_o king_n

that_o yet_o we_o can_v pray_v for_o the_o party_n the_o use_n be_v 1_o see_v the_o communion_n and_o society_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v such_o a_o great_a help_n to_o further_o we_o to_o heaven_n and_o to_o comfort_v we_o here_o in_o this_o world_n let_v it_o be_v our_o wisdom_n to_o nourish_v this_o holy_a communion_n one_o with_o another_o and_o to_o strengthen_v one_o another_o in_o our_o faith_n repentance_n and_o holy_a grace_n as_o also_o to_o nourish_v holy_a meeting_n for_o the_o further_o instruct_v one_o of_o another_o but_o these_o christian_a communion_n be_v now_o much_o decay_v we_o have_v see_v what_o meeting_n in_o many_o town_n there_o have_v be_v in_o former_a time_n to_o confer_v and_o pray_v one_o with_o another_o and_o to_o speak_v of_o good_a thing_n do_v christian_n think_v there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o help_v this_o way_n can_v they_o go_v to_o heaven_n without_o the_o help_n one_o of_o another_o the_o strength_n of_o samson_n lie_v in_o his_o hair_n which_o when_o dalilah_n have_v cut_v he_o become_v as_o another_o man_n simile_n so_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o strength_n of_o a_o christian_a lie_v in_o christian_a communion_n and_o in_o the_o use_n of_o good_a mean_n from_o which_o if_o the_o world_n can_v entice_v thou_o and_o cut_v off_o these_o good_a help_n and_o mean_n thy_o strength_n will_v decay_v and_o thou_o shall_v become_v as_o another_o man_n therefore_o it_o must_v be_v our_o wisdom_n to_o nourish_v this_o holy_a communion_n there_o be_v another_o communion_n now_o adays_o that_o have_v eat_v out_o and_o overrun_v this_o to_o wit_n the_o communion_n of_o good_a fellow_n that_o meet_v together_o to_o swill_v swagger_v drink_n carouse_v misspend_v their_o time_n abuse_v the_o good_a creature_n and_o dishonour_n god_n but_o there_o be_v as_o great_a difference_n between_o these_o two_o communion_n as_o between_o light_n and_o darkness_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o pitiful_a thing_n that_o on_o this_o day_n in_o

enlarge_v this_o point_n object_n and_o say_v that_o the_o saint_n may_v communicate_v their_o merit_n one_o to_o another_o for_o they_o say_v that_o the_o saint_n can_v merit_v enough_o for_o

disproove_v first_o another_o because_o no_o man_n can_v merit_v for_o himself_o so_o if_o he_o can_v merit_v for_o himself_o he_o can_v merit_v for_o another_o and_o no_o man_n can_v merit_v for_o himself_o because_o merit_n be_v a_o work_n that_o be_v not_o due_a see_v all_o that_o we_o can_v do_v to_o god_n 1._o be_v but_o our_o duty_n now_o all_o the_o service_n that_o we_o do_v to_o god_n
