and_o get_v unto_o ourselves_o the_o sound_n preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n as_o the_o chief_a and_o most_o princiyall_a mean_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v and_o sanctify_v for_o the_o save_n of_o

of_o preach_v to_o save_v they_o that_o believe_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o when_o as_o man_n neither_o by_o natural_a wisdom_n nor_o the_o contemplation_n of_o the_o creature_n can_v sufficient_o attain_v to_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n according_a to_o his_o heavenly_a and_o infinite_a wisdom_n think_v of_o a_o other_o course_n which_o be_v to_o save_v man_n by_o preach_v which_o the_o world_n count_v foolishness_n and_o by_o the_o way_n note_n that_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n of_o humane_a invention_n but_o it_o be_v god_n own_o device_n and_o come_v first_o out_o of_o his_o brain_n as_o the_o next_o and_o near_a way_n to_o save_v man_n soul_n wise_a solomon_n also_o in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o proverbe_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o preach_n of_o god_n word_n which_o he_o call_v uision_n use_v the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n which_o call_v their_o sermon_n uision_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v spare_v or_o that_o we_o may_v be_v at_o choice_n whether_o we_o have_v it_o or_o no_o but_o he_o make_v it_o to_o be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n unto_o eternal_a life_n for_o he_o say_v where_o vision_n fail_v the_o people_n be_v leave_v naked_a 18._o so_o indeed_o it_o be_v in_o the_o original_a but_o the_o old_a translation_n give_v we_o the_o sense_n thus_o where_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v not_o preach_v there_o the_o people_n perish_v then_o you_o see_v that_o solomon_n strike_v it_o dead_a in_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o they_o which_o be_v without_o preach_v of_o the_o word_n be_v in_o exceed_a danger_n of_o lose_v their_o soul_n oh_o that_o man_n can_v be_v persuade_v of_o this_o saint_n paul_n also_o say_v that_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o word_n preach_v for_o he_o say_v how_o can_v they_o 14._o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n if_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v the_o word_n preach_v than_o i_o reason_v thus_o no_o preach_v no_o faith_n no_o faith_n no_o christ_n no_o christ_n no_o eternal_a life_n for_o eternal_a life_n be_v only_o in_o he_o let_v we_o then_o put_v they_o together_o thus_o take_v away_o the_o word_n take_v away_o faith_n take_v away_o faith_n take_v away_o christ_n take_v away_o christ_n and_o take_v away_o eternal_a life_n so_o than_o it_o follow_v take_v away_o the_o word_n and_o take_v away_o eternal_a life_n or_o we_o may_v read_v they_o backward_o thus_o if_o we_o will_v have_v heaven_n we_o must_v have_v christ_n if_o we_o will_v have_v christ_n we_o must_v have_v faith_n if_o we_o will_v have_v faith_n we_o must_v have_v the_o word_n preach_v then_o it_o follow_v thus_o if_o we_o will_v have_v heaven_n we_o must_v have_v the_o word_n preach_v then_o i_o conclude_v that_o preach_v general_o and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n unto_o eternal_a life_n as_o meat_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o our_o body_n as_o grass_n and_o fodder_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o the_o uphold_v of_o the_o life_n of_o beast_n and_o water_n of_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o the_o life_n of_o fish_n then_o this_o be_v so_o man_n be_v with_o great_a care_n and_o conscience_n to_o hear_v the_o gospel_n preach_v to_o frequent_a sermon_n to_o resort_v much_o to_o god_n house_n and_o habitation_n where_o his_o honour_n dwell_v with_o david_n to_o

to_o the_o first_o move_v of_o the_o spiritual_a water_n of_o life_n by_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o our_o spiritual_a impotency_n may_v be_v holpen_v and_o relieve_v for_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v that_o golden_a pipe_n whereby_o and_o wherethrough_a all_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n all_o the_o sweetness_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o heavenly_a grace_n

the_o pomegranate_n the_o sweet_a savour_n of_o christ_n death_n note_v thereby_o that_o the_o sweet_a savour_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o all_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o passion_n shall_v be_v spread_v abroad_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o if_o ever_o man_n purpose_v to_o be_v save_v they_o must_v make_v more_o account_n of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o

that_o their_o hear_n be_v make_v unfruitful_a the_o other_o that_o the_o devil_n have_v a_o hundred_o device_n to_o hinder_v the_o effectual_a work_n of_o the_o word_n so_o as_o it_o shall_v do_v
