much_o give_v too_o his_o own_o profit_n for_o although_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o he_o to_o have_v his_o find_n because_o he_o bear_v abroad_o god_n word_n yet_o notwithstanding_o as_o we_o see_v

to_o edify_v his_o church_n therefore_o he_o may_v rebuke_v the_o unthankfulness_n of_o such_o as_o behave_v themselves_o amiss_o towards_o their_o shepherd_n in_o abridge_n they_o of_o sustenance_n for_o their_o body_n whereas_o by_o their_o mean_n they_o have_v food_n and_o sustenance_n for_o their_o soul_n now_o it_o be_v a_o very_a unkind_a deal_n when_o a_o man_n consider_v not_o that_o he_o

that_o be_v too_o say_v by_o such_o as_o be_v teach_v or_o as_o be_v bring_v as_o scholar_n unto_o god_n now_o we_o see_v saint_n paul_n meening_a and_o thereupon_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o must_v not_o take_v any_o nowadays_o for_o minister_n and_o herdsman_n of_o god_n church_n but_o such_o as_o bring_v his_o word_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o 〈…〉_o for_o our_o

some_o end_n which_o they_o have_v purpoze_v to_o themselves_o ▪_o i_o say_v even_o because_o they_o hope_v for_o fruit_n to_o their_o commodity_n that_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n why_o they_o be_v not_o weary_a of_o their_o labour_n as_o for_o example_n he_o that_o intend_v too_o get_v much_o will_v suffer_v hunger_n and_o thirst_n cold_a and_o heat_n and_o nothing_o will_v appall_v he_o and_o why_o for_o his_o covetousness_n carry_v he_o on_o still_o so_o as_o he_o forget_v all_o thing_n else_o and_o torment_v himself_o more_o than_o if_o he_o be_v in_o his_o enemy_n hand_n nay_o his_o enemy_n will_v not_o torment_v he_o so_o much_o so_o then_o when_o a_o man_n take_v great_a pain_n too_o gather_v good_n it_o be_v like_o the_o sow_v of_o a_o husbandman_n and_o he_o hope_v that_o

not_o seek_v any_o other_o mean_v to_o be_v save_v than_o by_o his_o only_a grace_n but_o s._n paul_n have_v speak_v more_o brief_o here_o because_o he_o be_v full_o resolve_v of_o all_o that_o i_o

they_o to_o receyve_v the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o lowliness_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o when_o we_o keep_v ourselves_o aloof_o from_o god_n and_o every_o man_n bear_v himself_o in_o hand_n that_o he_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v accept_v of_o he_o our_o lord_n will_v sure_o be_v advenge_v of_o such_o presumptuousnesse_n and_o say_v go_v to_o let_v i_o

your_o labour_n therefore_o hie_v you_o apace_o and_o let_v i_o see_v how_o you_o will_v serve_v i_o but_o as_o i_o say_v our_o lord_n in_o say_v so_o prepare_v and_o dispoze_v we_o to_o know_v in_o what_o plight_n we_o be_v for_o when_o we_o once_o perceive_v our_o own_o need_n then_o will_v we_o seek_v our_o want_n at_o his_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o law_n lead_v we_o to_o faith_n but_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a kind_n of_o lead_v howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v there_o be_v always_o this_o contrariety_n which_o s._n paul_n set_v down_o here_o namely_o that_o we_o can_v be_v

that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o damnation_n in_o us._n now_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o s._n paul_n have_v stretch_v this_o say_n of_o abacuck_n too_o far_o see_v he_o speak_v there_o but_o of_o the_o affliction_n of_o this_o transitory_a life_n the_o rightuous_a shall_v live_v that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o shall_v hold_v out_o and_o although_o god_n afflict_v he_o &_o scourge_v he_o yet_o shall_v he_o not_o quail_v if_o he_o ground_n himself_o upon_o god_n promise_n and_o here_o the_o case_n concern_v not_o god_n comfort_v and_o deliver_v of_o we_o from_o the_o misery_n whereunto_o we_o be_v subject_a in_o this_o world_n but_o it_o concern_v our_o everlasting_a salvation_n which_o far_o pass_v all_o the_o state_n of_o this_o transitory_a life_n it_o seem_v therefore_o that_o s._n paul_n appli_v not_o this_o text_n of_o the_o prophet_n aright_o howbeit_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o if_o the_o prophet_n have_v look_v no_o further_a than_o too_o this_o world_n that_o say_v of_o his_o have_v be_v very_o vain_a see_v that_o affliction_n be_v common_a both_o to_o good_a and_o bad_a again_o how_o be_v it_o that_o we_o live_v by_o faith_n see_v we_o be_v continual_o subject_a to_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o danger_n
to_o lament_v their_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v rest_v themselves_o whole_o upon_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n yet_o do_v they_o it_o not_o till_o god_n have_v strike_v they_o as_o it_o have_v be_v with_o many_o blow_n of_o a_o beetle_n upon_o the_o head_n which_o thing_n he_o do_v by_o the_o law_n moreover_o saint_n paul_n show_v that_o we_o abuse_v the_o gentleness_n of_o our_o god_n through_o our_o unthankfulness_n because_o that_o the_o more_o courteous_a he_o show_v himself_o towards_o we_o the_o more_o occasion_n do_v we_o take_v thereby_o too_o flatter_v ourselves_o therefore_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o rouse_v we_o up_o and_o to_o make_v we_o feel_v what_o we_o be_v thereby_o too_o scare_v we_o and_o drive_v we_o too_o seek_v his_o

rigour_n against_o we_o too_o beat_v we_o down_o by_o that_o mean_n and_o so_o to_o prepare_v we_o too_o the_o seek_n of_o his_o grace_n the_o which_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n whensoever_o we_o list_v and_o heerewythall_o saint_n paul_n add_v that_o the_o law_n serve_v but_o till_o the_o seed_n come_v to_o who_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v this_o concern_v proper_o

mark_v saint_n paul_n discourse_n for_o he_o take_v the_o law_n as_o contain_v the_o promise_n and_o threaten_n 5_o and_o also_o the_o ceremony_n then_o on_o the_o one_o side_n there_o be_v this_o

short_a of_o that_o and_o therefore_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n be_v to_o no_o purpose_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n if_o it_o be_v allege_v what_o sirrah_n mentivole_n god_n too_o mock_v

and_o therefore_o god_n be_v fain_o too_o say_v untoo_o they_o goto_n if_o you_o be_v so_o able_a man_n as_o you_o think_v show_v it_o as_o for_o i_o i_o give_v you_o my_o law_n and_o because_o you_o

it_o be_v not_o guileful_a for_o it_o serve_v we_o to_o another_o end_n as_o touch_v the_o threat_n of_o it_o it_o be_v infallible_a for_o we_o be_v all_o damn_a by_o this_o threaten_n curse_a be_v

ceremony_n for_o a_o overplus_n to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o solemn_a bond_n against_o us._n but_o now_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o all_o this_o gear_n serve_v but_o till_o the_o

christ_n but_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o he_o that_o there_o they_o may_v find_v the_o thing_n which_o they_o want_v in_o the_o law_n so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o god_n use_v of_o rigour_n in_o

tell_v you_o already_o and_o experience_n show_v it_o too_o much_o that_o we_o cease_v not_o to_o abuse_v his_o gentleness_n and_o too_o draw_v it_o clean_o contrary_a to_o his_o meen_n therefore_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o rouse_v we_o up_o and_o to_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o judge_n and_o to_o make_v we_o here_o this_o dreadful_a sentence_n able_a to_o cast_v we_o into_o despair_n that_o

than_o till_o the_o promise_a seed_n be_v come_v now_o if_o a_o man_n demand_v how_o then_o do_v the_o father_n obtain_v salvation_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o law_n reign_v and_o have_v his_o full_a

they_o be_v both_o one_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o but_o in_o this_o text_n the_o word_n faith_n have_v yet_o a_o more_o peculiar_a signification_n which_o be_v the_o revelation_n or_a

that_o abraham_n perceive_v how_o it_o stand_v he_o on_o hand_n to_o put_v his_o whole_a trust_n in_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n give_v over_o himself_o and_o so_o his_o believe_v be_v reckon_v

half_n it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n to_o mark_v this_o text_n so_o much_o the_o better_a where_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o whosoever_o be_v circumcyse_v be_v a_o debtor_n of_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n when_o saint_n paul_n speak_v after_o that_o sort_n of_o circumcision_n we_o must_v mark_v that_o he_o talk_v not_o according_a to_o god_n first_o institute_v of_o it_o for_o too_o what_o purpose_n do_v god_n give_v it_o untoo_o abraham_n he_o give_v it_o he_o as_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o rightuousnesse_n of_o faith_n 11._o and_o so_o do_v he_o himself_o say_v in_o the_o

set_v our_o father_n abraham_n at_o full_a liberty_n why_o then_o do_v he_o take_v it_o because_o god_n give_v it_o he_o as_o a_o record_n and_o sacrament_n of_o his_o free_a goodness_n but_o contrariwise_o those_o against_o who_o saint_n paul_n reason_v take_v circumcision_n as_o a_o meritorious_a work_n and_o think_v thereby_o to_o deserve_v at_o god_n hand_n they_o enter_v intoo_o a_o

must_v not_o bargain_n in_o this_o case_n man_n must_v not_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o can_v partly_o bind_v god_n so_o as_o he_o shall_v of_o right_o be_v in_o their_o debt_n and_o bind_v of_o necessity_n to_o take_v they_o into_o his_o paradise_n for_o do_v this_o or_o that_o for_o he_o no_o no_o say_v saint_n paul_n we_o must_v go_v more_o substantial_o too_o work_v we_o

come_v to_o that_o point_n we_o be_v debtor_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n to_o be_v short_a saint_n paul_n stryve_v here_o against_o the_o divelishe_a error_n that_o reign_v in_o the_o popedom_n they_o

lo_o what_o the_o life_n of_o christian_n be_v but_o s._n paul_n say_v here_o that_o if_o man_n will_v not_o acknowledge_v themselves_o to_o be_v utter_a enemy_n too_o god_n and_o full_a of_o all_o

you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o this_o streyne_v be_v that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v beguile_v with_o our_o own_o hypocrisy_n but_o every_o of_o we_o
