A12703	The high vvay to Heaven by the cleare light of the Gospell cleansed of a number of most dangerous stumbling stones thereinto throwen by Bellarmine and others In a treatise made vpon the 37. 38. and 39. verses of the 7. of Iohn: wherein is so handled the most sweete and comfortable doctrine of the true vnion and communication of Christ and his Church, and the contrarie is so confuted, as that not onely thereby also summarilie and briefly, and yet plainly all men may learne rightly to receiue the sacrament of Christs blessed bodie and blood, but also how to beleeue and to liue to saluation. And therefore entitled The highway to Heauen. By Thomas Sparke Doctor of Diuinitie.	Sparke, Thomas, 1548-1616.	1597 (1597)	STC 23021; ESTC S102434	161,682	384

not_o up_o and_o that_o because_o it_o flow_v for_o as_o christ_n have_v teach_v we_o by_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o talent_n matth._n 25.4_o etc._n etc._n in_o no_o case_n we_o may_v conceal_v or_o

we_o lie_v they_o forth_o and_o use_v they_o to_o the_o gain_n of_o he_o that_o bestow_v they_o they_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v increase_v but_o in_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o most_o

the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n as_o therefore_o we_o believe_v with_o the_o heart_n to_o righteousness_n so_o saint_n paul_n teach_v we_o that_o we_o must_v confess_v with_o our_o mouth_n to_o

while_o then_o we_o teach_v thus_o as_o no_o otherwise_o we_o do_v do_v we_o set_v open_v any_o gap_n of_o liberty_n or_o licentiousness_n to_o our_o hearer_n or_o be_v we_o in_o our_o doctrine_n any_o way_n enemy_n to_o good_a work_n as_o our_o adversary_n slander_n we_o nay_o do_v we_o not_o as_o earnest_o and_o vehement_o as_o they_o can_v for_o their_o life_n urge_v man_n to_o do_v they_o indeed_o we_o dare_v not_o teach_v they_o when_o they_o have_v do_v never_o so_o many_a of_o they_o in_o any_o case_n to_o make_v any_o piece_n of_o a_o saviour_n either_o of_o any_o thing_n they_o do_v or_o suffer_v because_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v we_o learn_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n that_o that_o office_n so_o entire_o and_o whole_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v to_o christ_n that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v impart_v or_o communicate_v without_o antichristian_a rob_v of_o he_o of_o that_o special_a honour_n that_o belong_v unto_o he_o to_o any_o thing_n or_o person_n else_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o as_o now_o you_o hear_v we_o most_o plain_o teach_v that_o none_o can_v have_v any_o certainty_n in_o himself_o without_o which_o our_o faith_n be_v but_o a_o fruitless_o waver_a conceit_n that_o as_o yet_o he_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o shall_v be_v save_v undoubted_o for_o his_o sake_n until_o the_o power_n of_o he_o dwell_v in_o he_o true_o appear_v by_o these_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v here_o for_o their_o purity_n multiplicity_n utility_n and_o continuance_n call_v river_n of_o water_n of_o life_n flow_v out_o of_o the_o belly_n of_o such_o and_o therefore_o though_o we_o dare_v not_o with_o our_o adversary_n teach_v man_n nor_o encourage_v man_n to_o do_v good_a work_n either_o in_o part_n or_o in_o whole_a to_o earn_v deserve_v or_o merit_v

urge_v all_o the_o argument_n that_o the_o scripture_n have_v teach_v us._n for_o we_o beseech_v they_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n with_o paul_n rom._n 12.1_o to_o give_v up_o their_o body_n a_o live_a sacrifice_n holy_a and_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n in_o serve_v he_o according_a to_o his_o word_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o fashion_n of_o the_o world_n for_o that_o by_o these_o

we_o for_o by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v that_o you_o be_v his_o disciple_n john_n 13.34.36_o and_o with_o peter_n we_o exhort_v all_o man_n to_o join_v virtue_n to_o their_o faith_n to_o

go_v beyond_o our_o adversary_n in_o lead_v man_n aright_o to_o good_a work_n for_o we_o urge_v and_o show_v the_o law_n of_o god_n to_o be_v so_o perfect_a and_o absolute_a a_o rule_n of_o good_a
