man_n can_v see_v the_o face_n of_o god_n 20._o &_o live_v and_o although_o moses_n have_v a_o wonderful_a revelation_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n 22._o as_o he_o speak_v in_o exodus_fw-la 33_o that_o the_o lord_n speak_v face_n to_o face_n unto_o he_o 1●_o as_o a_o man_n speak_v unto_o his_o friend_n yet_o be_v it_o say_v that_o he_o see_v but_o the_o back_n of_o god_o only_o but_o this_o be_v to_o the_o end_n always_o to_o show_v we_o that_o while_o we_o be_v environ_v in_o this_o flesh_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o approach_v unto_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_o or_o think_v to_o mount_v so_o high_a 2._o for_o if_o the_o very_a angel_n of_o heaven_n under_o the_o figure_n of_o cherubim_n hide_v their_o eye_n when_o there_o be_v any_o mention_n of_o the_o appearance_n of_o god_n what_o must_v we_o do_v which_o do_v but_o trail_v here_o and_o creep_v on_o the_o ground_n but_o how_o so_o ever_o it_o be_v god_n will_v condemn_v we_o of_o unthankfulness_n when_o we_o will_v not_o behold_v his_o face_n &_o be_v sufficient_o content_v with_o those_o visible_a sign_n which_o he_o show_v we_o of_o his_o presence_n above_o all_o let_v we_o be_v mindful_a of_o this_o when_o any_o question_n be_v of_o submit_v ourselves_o both_o to_o the_o law_n &_o the_o gospel_n for_o it_o be_v there_o especial_o that_o god_n will_v be_v know_v of_o man_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v worship_v he_o receive_v simple_o what_o soever_o come_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n to_o what_o purpose_n then_o shall_v we_o apply_v this_o sentence_n of_o moses_n forsooth_o to_o this_o that_o when_o the_o scripture_n be_v set_v before_o we_o when_o one_o preach_v and_o expound_v it_o unto_o we_o or_o that_o we_o ourselves_o read_v it_o this_o speech_n of_o he_o must_v serve_v to_o humble_v we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o god_n may_v be_v with_o all_o reverence_n exalt_v and_o that_o we_o presume_v not_o to_o make_v any_o reply_n to_o his_o word_n but_o that_o we_o tremble_v at_o it_o 2._o as_o he_o speak_v thereof_o to_o the_o prophet_n esaie_n for_o all_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v in_o such_o sort_n prove_v that_o one_o may_v say_v that_o god_n have_v speak_v to_o man_n even_o after_o a_o visible_a manner_n now_o moses_n after_o this_o add_v that_o he_o stand_v between_o the_o lord_n and_o they_o as_o a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n because_o the_o people_n fear_v and_o dare_v not_o ascend_v up_o into_o the_o mount_n whereby_o moses_n signify_v that_o though_o the_o law_n be_v bring_v by_o a_o mortal_a man_n yet_o ought_v it_o not_o to_o be_v derogation_n to_o the_o authority_n thereof_o and_o why_o because_o this_o be_v for_o the_o instruction_n of_o the_o people_n so_o that_o the_o fault_n rest_v in_o they_o and_o this_o place_n be_v well_o worth_a the_o note_n for_o we_o always_o seek_v some_o start_a hole_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v set_v light_a by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n true_o we_o do_v not_o pretend_v it_o open_o but_o in_o covert_n but_o yet_o all_o the_o world_n be_v set_v upon_o this_o wickedness_n so_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v find_v man_n think_v themselves_o well_o and_o at_o very_o good_a rest_n when_o they_o can_v find_v any_o colour_n to_o say_v oh_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o no_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o it_o be_v speak_v to_o i_o i_o know_v not_o what_o condition_n it_o have_v thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o world_n seek_v always_o to_o exempt_v itself_o from_o the_o obedience_n to_o god_n word_n and_o this_o excuse_n be_v over_o common_a to_o say_v yea_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n ought_v to_o be_v obey_v but_o they_o be_v but_o man_n which_o preach_v it_o to_o we_o as_o we_o be_v must_v we_o then_o receive_v their_o doctrine_n as_o if_o angel_n appear_v to_o we_o from_o heaven_n many_o think_v it_o suffice_v to_o say_v thus_o when_o notwithstanding_o they_o show_v themselves_o herein_o rebellious_a to_o god_n or_o rather_o they_o have_v no_o care_n to_o submit_v themselves_o to_o he_o &_o his_o word_n but_o we_o have_v here_o one_o answer_n to_o cut_v off_o all_o such_o vain_a allegation_n that_o be_v when_o god_n send_v his_o word_n by_o the_o hand_n &_o ministry_n of_o man_n he_o do_v it_o because_o of_o our_o fault_n &_o infirmity_n ▪_o howbeit_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o show_v we_o some_o mark_n of_o his_o glory_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o his_o word_n may_v be_v know_v to_o be_v heavenly_a &_o so_o that_o be_v due_o consider_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o god_n have_v warrant_v enough_o &_o more_o than_o enough_o neither_o have_v moses_n speak_v this_o only_a for_o the_o instruction_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n but_o this_o admonition_n serve_v also_o for_o we_o that_o if_o man_n as_o we_o be_v be_v appoint_v messenger_n to_o preach_v unto_o we_o the_o word_n of_o god_n it_o ought_v not_o in_o our_o estimation_n derogate_v any_o thing_n from_o the_o majesty_n thereof_o and_o in_o very_a deed_n we_o consider_v little_a of_o our_o own_o frailty_n &_o weakness_n when_o we_o desire_v that_o god_n shall_v teach_v we_o by_o miracle_n every_o day_n &_o we_o know_v not_o what_o be_v meet_v &_o convenient_a for_o we_o for_o as_o for_o miracle_n there_o have_v be_v enough_o already_o show_v to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n both_o of_o the_o law_n &_o of_o the_o gospel_n that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o full_a &_o certain_a assurance_n of_o they_o yet_o it_o be_v most_o behooveful_a that_o god_n deal_v so_o merciful_o with_o we_o that_o he_o send_v man_n like_a to_o ourselves_o &_o commit_v unto_o they_o the_o charge_n and_o office_n of_o teach_v we_o in_o his_o name_n and_o in_o his_o room_n as_o one_o that_o allure_v we_o unto_o himself_o with_o all_o kindness_n &_o gentleness_n for_o can_v we_o think_v ourselves_o able_a to_o sustain_v and_o abide_v his_o presence_n if_o he_o shall_v appear_v to_o we_o as_o he_o be_v alas_o we_o shall_v be_v all_o utter_o consume_v if_o god_n shall_v speak_v in_o his_o majesty_n &_o power_n we_o know_v it_o be_v say_v 29._o that_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v enough_o to_o shake_v mighty_a rock_n &_o move_v huge_a mountain_n out_o of_o their_o place_n &_o can_v we_o which_o be_v so_o feeble_a &_o weak_a as_o nothing_o more_o stand_v before_o so_o puissant_a a_o power_n &_o not_o be_v daunt_v &_o cast_v down_o as_o with_o the_o force_n of_o some_o vehement_a thunder_a to_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n of_o hell_n let_v we_o note_v then_o that_o when_o god_n have_v ordain_v that_o his_o word_n shall_v be_v preach_v to_o we_o by_o man_n &_o commit_v to_o writing_n therein_o he_o appli_v himself_o to_o our_o weakness_n and_o deal_v with_o we_o as_o if_o he_o be_v a_o mortal_a man_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o fear_v to_o come_v unto_o he_o be_v draw_v by_o so_o great_a lenity_n and_o gentleness_n and_o withal_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o honour_n he_o do_v we_o when_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o choose_v out_o from_o among_o we_o poor_a and_o vile_a wretch_n to_o represent_v his_o person_n and_o to_o speak_v unto_o we_o in_o his_o name_n for_o what_o great_a thing_n can_v he_o yield_v unto_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n what_o more_o honourable_a charge_n &_o office_n can_v he_o commit_v unto_o they_o therefore_o when_o he_o dain_v &_o vouchsafe_v man_n of_o so_o great_a and_o excellent_a honour_n as_o to_o carry_v abroad_o his_o word_n as_o his_o ambassador_n do_v he_o not_o declare_v unto_o we_o in_o this_o one_o thing_n his_o more_o than_o fatherly_a goodness_n towards_o we_o now_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o make_v trial_n of_o our_o humility_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v thunder_v from_o heaven_n if_o he_o shall_v appear_v in_o visible_a manner_n if_o the_o angel_n shall_v descend_v unto_o we_o we_o need_v not_o great_o marvel_v if_o man_n do_v give_v credit_n to_o his_o word_n but_o when_o all_o both_o great_a &_o small_a receive_v the_o order_n which_o god_n have_v set_v in_o his_o church_n as_o they_o yield_v obedience_n to_o his_o word_n when_o it_o be_v preach_v therein_o be_v our_o faith_n try_v but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n let_v we_o always_o remember_v this_o that_o god_n have_v sufficient_o declare_v himself_o to_o man_n so_o that_o we_o have_v no_o occasion_n at_o all_o to_o doubt_v of_o his_o word_n &_o to_o dispute_v whence_o it_o come_v for_o his_o will_n be_v make_v more_o than_o certain_a if_o so_o hew_v be_v not_o unthankful_a in_o receive_v the_o sign_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o thus_o you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o note_v in_o this_o place_n when_o moses_n say_v the_o people_n dare_v
the_o true_a and_o natural_a meaning_n of_o moses_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o good_a and_o profitable_a doctrine_n namely_o that_o although_o we_o be_v not_o at_o first_o when_o the_o gospel_n be_v publish_v although_o we_o have_v not_o see_v with_o our_o eye_n those_o thing_n which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o law_n yet_o ought_v we_o not_o therefore_o to_o have_v in_o less_o estimation_n &_o price_n the_o authority_n of_o he_o word_n of_o god_n and_o why_o i_o grant_v that_o when_o god_n raise_v up_o moses_n it_o be_v a_o especial_a token_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o goodness_n towards_o the_o people_n which_o then_o live_v yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o law_n must_v not_o at_o any_o time_n be_v diminish_v for_o it_o contain_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n which_o always_o abide_v and_o be_v not_o variable_a and_o transitory_a as_o man_n be_v it_o be_v say_v that_o man_n be_v as_o a_o flower_n 7._o or_o as_o a_o herb_n which_o by_o and_o by_o dry_v and_o wither_v but_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o lord_n endure_v for_o ever_o 24._o now_o this_o truth_n which_o be_v unchangeable_a be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n true_o the_o law_n as_o touch_v the_o ceremony_n be_v utter_o abolish_v but_o as_o touch_v the_o substance_n &_o doctrine_n which_o it_o contain_v it_o retain_v always_o his_o force_n &_o power_n still_o not_o one_o jot_n thereof_o fall_v away_o or_o perish_v so_o then_o let_v we_o note_v that_o though_o we_o have_v not_o live_v in_o the_o time_n of_o moses_n this_o serve_v not_o to_o allege_v that_o we_o may_v therefore_o contemn_v the_o admonition_n he_o have_v give_v &_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n and_o why_o for_o he_o have_v speak_v to_o we_o he_o have_v not_o only_o speak_v to_o the_o multitude_n which_o be_v assemble_v at_o mount_n horeb_n but_o general_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o if_o this_o be_v say_v of_o the_o law_n by_o a_o great_a &_o more_o strong_a reason_n be_v it_o to_o be_v say_v of_o the_o gospel_n for_o as_o we_o have_v say_v the_o law_n concern_v the_o shadow_n thereof_o be_v clean_o do_v away_o but_o the_o gospel_n have_v no_o such_o thing_n for_o in_o it_o our_o lord_n make_v a_o new_a &_o everlasting_a testament_n &_o a_o covenant_n to_o last_v from_o generation_n to_o generation_n how_o then_o must_v we_o be_v affect_v when_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_a we_o must_v remember_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n come_v into_o the_o world_n not_o only_o to_o instruct_v they_o with_o who_o he_o be_v conversant_a in_o his_o manhood_n but_o that_o he_o have_v win_v we_o to_o god_n his_o father_n and_o have_v call_v we_o to_o salvation_n by_o send_v his_o apostle_n that_o their_o voice_n shall_v sound_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n to_o they_o which_o hear_v not_o he_o to_o make_v they_o partaker_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n the_o which_o at_o this_o day_n also_o we_o ought_v to_o receive_v as_o if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v yet_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o we_o or_o as_o if_o the_o apostle_n with_o their_o own_o mouth_n do_v speak_v unto_o we_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n upon_o this_o place_n that_o we_o make_v no_o alteration_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_o neither_o attempt_n to_o change_v any_o thing_n in_o his_o word_n know_v that_o he_o will_v always_o have_v keep_v therein_o one_o equal_a train_n for_o see_v that_o he_o have_v deliver_v unto_o we_o his_o gospel_n and_o establish_v a_o certain_a rule_n of_o regiment_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n we_o must_v hold_v the_o same_o and_o thereon_o rest_v ourselves_o if_o we_o do_v otherwise_o it_o be_v as_o if_o we_o will_v make_v the_o word_n of_o god_n mortal_a and_o corruptible_a with_o we_o so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o though_o the_o world_n be_v variable_a and_o inconstant_a and_o have_v every_o day_n his_o backturn_v and_o though_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o which_o have_v not_o always_o many_o gad_a opinion_n which_o trot_n in_o our_o brain_n that_o yet_o not_o withstand_v concern_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v appoint_v we_o be_v not_o to_o take_v that_o liberty_n to_o do_v at_o one_o time_n this_o and_o at_o a_o other_o time_n that_o as_o we_o listen_v and_o as_o we_o fancy_n wherefore_o because_o god_n have_v not_o make_v this_o covenant_n with_o our_o father_n but_o with_o we_o which_o be_v alive_a at_o this_o day_n as_o long_o then_o as_o we_o be_v in_o the_o world_n let_v we_o know_v that_o god_n govern_v of_o we_o and_o his_o show_v we_o the_o way_n be_v to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v as_o wander_a pilgrim_n to_o stray_v hither_o and_o thither_o and_o to_o range_v as_o our_o lust_n and_o appetite_n turn_v we_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v conduct_v as_o by_o his_o hand_n to_o be_v short_a whereas_o moses_n say_v hear_v we_o that_o be_v all_o alive_a at_o this_o day_n it_o be_v to_o declare_v &_o prove_v that_o man_n during_o their_o life_n time_n ought_v not_o to_o forge_v any_o new_a law_n that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v to_o day_n one_o to_o morrow_n a_o other_o and_o why_o for_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o ought_v to_o suffice_v we_o let_v we_o then_o make_v our_o profit_n by_o regard_v the_o thing_n that_o tend_v thereunto_o and_o further_o it_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o moses_n here_o charge_v the_o people_n with_o unthankfulness_n which_o shall_v be_v in_o they_o if_o they_o dedicate_v not_o their_o life_n to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v how_o live_v we_o be_v it_o not_o for_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v place_v we_o in_o this_o world_n if_o then_o our_o life_n we_o have_v be_v give_v of_o he_o ought_v we_o not_o to_o bestow_v it_o &_o employ_v it_o in_o his_o service_n aught_v it_o not_o to_o be_v whole_o consecrate_v to_o his_o will_n we_o see_v then_o how_o moses_n reprove_v here_o all_o they_o which_o wander_v and_o continue_v not_o then_o course_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n let_v we_o withal_o retain_v in_o memory_n that_o which_o i_o have_v above_o touch_v that_o be_v that_o we_o have_v not_o a_o doctrine_n for_o three_o day_n but_o one_o wherein_o we_o must_v be_v confirm_v as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v therefore_o when_o we_o have_v once_o receive_v and_o embrace_v that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n let_v we_o study_v to_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o it_o and_o to_o go_v forward_o increase_a in_o the_o knowledge_n &_o practice_n of_o it_o till_o god_n shall_v draw_v we_o out_o of_o this_o world_n know_v that_o he_o will_v vouchsafe_v to_o take_v we_o into_o his_o covenant_n and_o that_o he_o for_o his_o part_n will_v not_o be_v unfaithful_a and_o unconstant_a but_o sure_a and_o steadfast_a in_o his_o purpose_n and_o promise_n let_v we_o do_v the_o like_a that_o we_o may_v be_v join_v to_o he_o and_o as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v let_v we_o have_v no_o other_o purpose_n but_o to_o cleave_v unto_o he_o howbeit_o as_o he_o have_v declare_v in_o his_o word_n but_o let_v we_o not_o think_v to_o join_v and_o unite_v ourselves_o to_o our_o god_n by_o our_o own_o fantasy_n but_o since_o he_o come_v unto_o we_o let_v we_o go_v unto_o he_o and_o when_o we_o be_v come_v thither_o let_v we_o take_v good_a heed_n to_o stay_v ourselves_o there_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v together_o upon_o this_o place_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v the_o better_o be_v dispose_v and_o prepare_v to_o receive_v the_o instruction_n which_o
