learn_v not_o to_o be_v over_o effeminate_a and_o that_o when_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o exercise_v we_o in_o what_o sect_n soever_o to_o be_v tractable_a to_o be_v lead_v to_o ●im_v

afrer_n tri_v we_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o any_o whit_n strange_a for_o we_o serve_v he_o not_o with_o this_o condition_n that_o after_o he_o have_v rough_o handle_v we_o for_o a_o day_n o●_n a_o year_n we_o may_v by_o and_o by_o be_v discharge_v and_o so_o crave_v a_o paspot_n but_o contrariwise_o to_o harden_v we_o because_o god_n cease_v not_o continual_o to_o send_v such_o proof_n to_o try_v our_o faith_n withal_o but_o the_o s●me_n shall_v be_v i_o say_v as_o a_o habit_n unto_o we_o because_o we_o see_v that_o a_o old_a beat_a soldier_n can_v abide_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o pain_n than_o a_o young_a fresh_a water_n soldier_n as_o we_o say_v for_o a_o young_a novice_n know_v not_o what_o it_o mean_v ●he_n will_v be_v weary_a with_o one_o night_n watch_n he_o be_v not_o

be_v far_o betterable_a to_o endure_v these_o thing_n even_o so_o must_v it_o fare_v with_o we_o that_o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v exercise_v we_o every_o manner_n of_o way_n we_o shall_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o able_a and_o ready_a the_o better_a and_o long_o to_o continue_v and_o although_o it_o shall_v seem_v to_o we_o that_o god_n deal_v very_o severe_o with_o we_o in_o lay_v too_o great_a load_n upon_o we_o yet_o let_v not_o we_o think_v our_o case_n to_o be_v strange_a and_o why_o so_o because_o we_o see_v here_o a_o pattern_n thereof_o in_o our_o father_n abraham_n unto_o who_o we_o must_v be_v configure_v now_o as_o concern_v this_o word_n tempt_v we_o know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o it_o when_o it_o be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o he_o tempt_v we_o to_o lead_v we_o to_o do_v ill_a for_o we_o be_v of_o of_o ourselves_o thereunto_o overmuch_o incline_v and_o as_o s._n james_n say_v every_o man_n be_v tempt_v of_o his_o own_o concupiscence_n 1.14_o james_n 1.14_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o seek_v after_o the_o cause_n of_o these_o fault_n any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o god_n tempt_v we_o not_o so_o as_o to_o say_v that_o the_o salt_n be_v in_o he_o and_o that_o we_o may_v impute_v the_o evil_a which_o we_o commit_v unto_o he_o as_o if_o he_o be_v author_n thereof_o but_o god_n tempt_v those_o that_o be_v he_o to_o sound_v they_o and_o therefore_o this_o word_n import_v to_o examine_v to_o prove_v not_o that_o he_o need_v to_o inquire_v what_o be_v in_o we_o thought_n god_n see_v our_o thought_n for_o we_o know_v that_o nothing_o be_v unknow_v to_o he_o the_o book_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o open_a but_o yet_o so_o as_o that_o god_n know_v and_o judge_v that_o which_o he_o will_v make_v manifest_a at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v no_o need_n to_o sound_v and_o try_v we_o faith_n affliction_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o trial_n of_o out_o faith_n for_o he_o do_v that_o that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o this_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o probation_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o gift_n to_o be_v unprofitable_a but_o will_v apply_v they_o to_o some_o use_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v thereby_o be_v glorify_v and_o we_o thereby_o also_o so_o much_o the_o better_o be_v confirm_v consider_v how_o wonderful_o he_o regard_v we_o and_o will_v have_v we_o with_o patience_n fight_v against_o all_o the_o assalt_v of_o satan_n &_o of_o the_o world_n that_o we_o thereby_o may_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o love_v we_o wherefore_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n the_o more_o confident_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o to_o run_v unto_o he_o and_o stay_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o goodness_n and_o not_o to_o doubt_v of_o his_o help_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n salvation_n god_n tri_v we_o by_o affliction_n both_o for_o his_o own_o glory_n and_o also_o for_o our_o salvation_n thus_o we_o see_v then_o in_o sum_n why_o god_n tri_v we_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v have_v the_o gift_n which_o he_o bestow_v on_o we_o to_o be_v apply_v to_o serve_v he_o to_o the_o end_n all_o man_n may_v know_v his_o power_n goodness_n and_o wisdom_n that_o thereby_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v as_o he_o deserve_v but_o it_o be_v chief_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v know_v his_o fatherly_a goodness_n towards_o we_o and_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o stir_v up_o to_o honour_v he_o and_o full_o and_o whole_o dedicate_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o and_o withal_o to_o trust_v altogether_o in_o he_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o abraham_n be_v tempt_v and_o so_o be_v also_o all_o the_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n at_o this_o day_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v live_v at_o ease_n and_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n cost_v we_o nothing_o what_o proof_n shall_v there_o be_v of_o our_o faith_n moreover_o which_o way_n shall_v the_o true_a child_n of_o god_n and_o such_o as_o serve_v he_o in_o simplicity_n of_o heart_n be_v discern_v from_o hypocrite_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v be_v try_v by_o temptation_n even_o as_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v try_v in_o the_o furnaise_n see_v also_o why_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n shall_v be_v try_v 6_o 1._o pet._n ●1_n 6_o now_o because_o gold_n &_o silver_n be_v precious_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o meet_v they_o shall_v be_v try_v by_o the_o fire_n and_o yet_o be_v but_o these_o corruptible_a metal_n &_o shall_v our_o faith_n which_o be_v far_o more_o excellent_a

there_o be_v another_o manner_n of_o righteousness_n in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v it_o whereof_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n a_o man_n may_v be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o angel_n in_o all_o

not_o shut_v up_o within_o himself_o to_o have_v it_o for_o himself_o only_o but_o so_o to_o communicate_v it_o unto_o we_o as_o that_o by_o his_o mean_n we_o may_v be_v make_v just_a before_o god_n and_o how_o shall_v that_o be_v we_o have_v already_o show_v that_o god_n repute_v we_o for_o just_a &_o innocent_a when_o as_o it_o please_v he_o to_o bury_v our_o sin_n &_o iniquity_n and_o again_o according_o as_o he_o have_v regenerate_v we_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v also_o to_o clothe_v we_o with_o his_o righteousness_n howbeit_o this_o be_v but_o

we_o see_v in_o what_o sort_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o righteousness_n here_o we_o see_v the_o first_o point_n that_o we_o be_v to_o note_v the_o second_o be_v of_o the_o place_n salem_n and_o salem_n be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o peace_n and_o the_o apostle_n show_v we_o that_o over_o and_o beside_o the_o righteousness_n which_o we_o receive_v from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o eftsoon_o enjoy_v a_o peace_n which_o he_o only_o open_v &_o which_o by_o none_o other_o mean_v we_o can_v obtain_v and_o although_o the_o wicked_a &_o contemner_n of_o god_n strive_v to_o be_v at_o rest_n and_o peace_n yet_o do_v the_o lord_n so_o awaken_v they_o with_o a_o spirit_n of_o frenzy_n as_o that_o they_o be_v like_o man_n half_o dead_a for_o mark_v how_o the_o wicked_a strive_v to_o be_v at_o rest_n and_o peace_n that_o be_v they_o forget_v god_n as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v &_o so_o become_v very_o brutish_a and_o yet_o in_o despite_n of_o their_o tooth_n god_n will_v put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o he_o and_o when_o he_o appear_v unto_o they_o they_o tremble_v as_o before_o their_o judge_n and_o beside_o they_o have_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o witness_n for_o their_o own_o conscience_n be_v more_o than_o all_o the_o action_n in_o the_o world_n yea_o they_o can_v but_o condemn_v themselves_o and_o although_o god_n seem_v to_o hold_v his_o peace_n yet_o can_v the_o wicked_a be_v pardon_v but_o that_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v enforce_v to_o feel_v their_o curse_n 57.21_o esay_n 48.22_o and_o 57.21_o and_o therefore_o as_o esaie_n witness_v there_o be_v no_o peace_n for_o the_o wicked_a but_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v to_o the_o ephesian_n christ_n be_v our_o peace_n because_o he_o have_v conjoin_v and_o unite_v we_o unto_o god_n his_o father_n 2.14_o ephes_n 2.14_o mark_v also_o why_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n he_o say_v that_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o god_n he_o make_v a_o difference_n of_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v to_o say_v between_o the_o peace_n which_o they_o seek_v after_o and_o can_v find_v it_o and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o faithful_a the_o wicked_a will_v turn_v their_o back_n upon_o god_n and_o fly_v from_o he_o as_o far_o as_o they_o possible_o can_v but_o the_o faithful_a come_v before_o he_o and_o acknowledge_v he_o for_o their_o father_n because_o they_o know_v that_o he_o will_v not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o forsomuch_o as_o jesus_n christ_n have_v forgive_v they_o they_o and_o thus_o have_v they_o peace_n and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o infinite_a mercy_n which_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v call_v the_o king_n of_o peace_n and_o there_o be_v more_o in_o it_o then_o so_o for_o the_o faithful_a be_v not_o only_o assure_v for_o the_o time_n present_a but_o also_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v for_o they_o know_v that_o god_n have_v begin_v his_o work_n in_o they_o conditional_o that_o he_o will_v perform_v it_o 1.6_o philip._n 1.6_o and_o therefore_o their_o trust_n be_v that_o he_o will_v never_o fail_v they_o but_o that_o he_o will_v more_o and_o more_o guide_n and_o govern_v they_o until_o they_o come_v unto_o his_o kingdom_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o we_o have_v peace_n and_o shall_v possess_v it_o in_o jesus_n christ_n because_o that_o without_o he_o we_o can_v be_v but_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o as_o we_o make_v war_n against_o he_o through_o our_o sin_n and_o rebellion_n he_o can_v choose_v also_o but_o arm_n himself_o against_o us._n here_o be_v also_o to_o be_v note_v that_o he_o be_v a_o priest_n for_o ever_o when_o as_o melchisedech_n be_v bring_v in_o as_o

more_o to_o increase_v his_o grace_n in_o us._n and_o beside_o these_o prayer_n of_o we_o must_v have_v regard_n unto_o the_o time_n past_a concern_v our_o give_n of_o thanks_o and_o praise_n unto_o

such_o a_o one_o in_o deed_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o benefit_n which_o he_o have_v heretofore_o bestow_v upon_o us._n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o we_o be_v here_o to_o observe_v as_o concern_v the_o word_n of_o melchisedech_n bless_a be_v god_n which_o have_v deliver_v thy_o enemy_n into_o thy_o hand_n the_o same_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o victory_n come_v from_o god._n and_o also_o that_o

to_o show_v that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o give_v he_o that_o prosperous_a success_n we_o see_v also_o that_o although_o david_n have_v a_o strong_a and_o mighty_a array_n and_o have_v valiant_a and_o renown_a soldier_n and_o himself_o likewise_o a_o expert_a man_n of_o war_n beside_o that_o god_n have_v make_v he_o a_o king_n 18.32.33_o psal_n 18.32.33_o yet_o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v god_n that_o have_v give_v he_o the_o foot_n of_o a_o hart_n that_o it_o be_v he_o that_o have_v advance_v he_o and_o so_o strengthen_v he_o as_o that_o he_o break_v in_o sunder_o the_o bar_n of_o brass_n &_o that_o it_o be_v he_o that_o have_v overthrow_v his_o enemy_n david_n then_o protest_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o he_o as_o of_o himself_o that_o get_v he_o all_o his_o victory_n see_v

unto_o god_n and_o unto_o himself_o to_o the_o end_n that_o his_o name_n may_v thereby_o be_v glorify_v what_o shall_v we_o then_o say_v abram_n who_o never_o in_o all_o his_o life_n follow_v the_o

for_o this_o point_n moreover_o we_o be_v to_o apply_v this_o unto_o a_o second_o use_n which_o be_v concern_v the_o spiritual_a power_n that_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o to_o surmount_v &_o overcome_v

yet_o understand_v the_o principle_n and_o rudiment_n of_o christianity_n no_o more_o than_o brute_n beast_n without_o sense_n and_o what_o a_o fearful_a thing_n be_v this_o that_o they_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o brag_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o yet_o they_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o great_a divine_n in_o the_o world_n when_o as_o they_o have_v make_v a_o distinction_n forsooth_o between_o unform_v and_o form_v faith_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o they_o have_v say_v a_o god_n in_o who_o be_v no_o power_n nor_o virtue_n &_o then_o a_o god_n who_o show_v himself_o powerful_a and_o just_a and_o thus_o have_v they_o forge_v unto_o themselves_o a_o double_a faith_n and_o why_o then_o do_v s._n james_n use_v here_o this_o word_n and_o why_o do_v we_o use_v this_o word_n church_n this_o word_n bishop_n this_o say_v god_n service_n devotion_n &_o zeal_n but_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o papist_n we_o never_o yield_v unto_o they_o in_o truth_n that_o they_o have_v any_o church_n which_o be_v to_o be_v obey_v for_o in_o deed_n they_o have_v nothing_o but_o some_o ruin_n of_o a_o church_n and_o a_o certain_a canvas_v and_o toss_v of_o service_n of_o their_o own_o devise_v and_o as_o they_o think_v to_o serve_v god_n withal_o but_o that_o be_v the_o church_n where_o god_n dwell_v by_o his_o word_n afterwards_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o they_o we_o use_v honourable_a word_n and_o yet_o our_o meaning_n be_v none_o other_o but_o that_o they_o usurp_v these_o title_n with_o jolly_a show_n &_o mark_n howbeit_o we_o do_v not_o altogether_o stand_v upon_o word_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n deal_v s._n james_n for_o he_o stand_v not_o upon_o the_o word_n but_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o frivolous_a vaunt_v which_o be_v in_o the_o mouth_n of_o these_o scoffer_n that_o will_v be_v take_v for_o good_a christian_n &_o say_v your_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o faith_n which_o you_o talk_v of_o be_v nothing_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v ask_v the_o question_n at_o this_o day_n what_o be_v the_o catholic_a church_n which_o the_o papist_n so_o brag_v of_o sure_o it_o be_v a_o very_a harlot_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o true_a church_n be_v the_o spouse_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v purge_v and_o wash_v with_o his_o blood_n 3.15_o eph._n 5.27_o 1._o tim._n 3.15_o that_o she_o may_v be_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v without_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n and_o after_o that_o to_o be_v the_o pillar_n of_o truth_n and_o in_o steed_n hereof_o behold_v a_o den_n of_o the_o eve_n and_o a_o harlot_n which_o have_v corrupt_v all_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o beget_v nothing_o but_o bastard_n thus_o shall_v we_o say_v and_o then_o we_o see_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o think_v saint_n james_n his_o phrase_n of_o reason_v to_o be_v strange_a because_o it_o be_v a_o ordinary_a and_o common_a thing_n among_o us._n we_o now_o then_o first_o see_v that_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o faith_n justifi_v we_o we_o speak_v not_o of_o faith_n but_o after_o the_o accustom_a manner_n but_o when_o saint_n james_n say_v that_o faith_n without_o work_n be_v dead_a it_o be_v to_o bar_v such_o as_o abuse_v this_o name_n and_o have_v a_o jollity_n to_o brag_v and_o glory_n thereof_o but_o in_o deed_n have_v it_o not_o let_v we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o part_n when_o saint_n james_n say_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o our_o work_n it_o shall_v by_o this_o seem_v that_o he_o be_v contrary_a unto_o saint_n paul_n now_o work_n must_v not_o be_v join_v with_o faith_n to_o part_v half_a stake_n with_o it_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v for_o if_o that_o be_v so_o than_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v certain_a and_o sure_a and_o therefore_o all_o consideration_n of_o our_o work_n must_v needs_o be_v exclude_v or_o the_o call_n upon_o god_n with_o true_a confidence_n to_o be_v take_v for_o his_o child_n to_o hope_v for_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n which_o be_v promise_v we_o work_n must_v needs_o be_v lay_v aside_o for_o what_o be_v it_o if_o work_v justify_v now_o this_o word_n justify_v be_v not_o take_v in_o saint_n james_n to_o be_v approve_v before_o god_n to_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o he_o and_o to_o make_v he_o receive_v we_o as_o his_o child_n how_o be_v it_o then_o take_v even_o as_o himself_o declare_v it_o without_o any_o other_o exposition_n for_o he_o add_v that_o abram_n be_v justify_v when_o he_o go_v about_o to_o offer_v up_o in_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n isahack_n now_o we_o never_o yet_o read_v that_o he_o sacrifice_v he_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o mean_v to_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o son_n unto_o god_n what_o mean_v he_o then_o forsooth_o this_o obedience_n whereof_o we_o shall_v hereafter_o speak_v be_v it_o that_o justify_v abram_n if_o we_o do_v speak_v of_o the_o approve_v of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v at_o that_o time_n do_v and_o be_v yet_o not_o indeed_o do_v we_o must_v therefore_o conclude_v that_o saint_n james_n speak_v not_o in_o that_o place_n how_o we_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n but_o how_o we_o be_v make_v righteous_a for_o what_o a_o blockish_a speech_n be_v this_o to_o say_v that_o the_o son_n have_v beget_v the_o father_n now_o we_o right_o well_o know_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o righteousness_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o mean_a and_o instrument_n by_o which_o we_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n and_o allow_v for_o his_o child_n and_o therefore_o faith_n must_v go_v before_o righteousness_n for_o it_o be_v the_o mean_a cause_n the_o instrumental_a or_o formal_a cause_n as_o we_o call_v it_o let_v we_o now_o come_v unto_o the_o obedience_n of_o abram_n when_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n for_o if_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o abram_n his_o righteousness_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o it_o go_v before_o for_o what_o a_o doltish_a speech_n be_v this_o to_o say_v that_o the_o corn_n that_o shall_v grow_v a_o year_n hence_o shall_v feed_v i_o from_o this_o day_n until_o this_o time_n twelue_v month_n now_o there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o child_n in_o the_o world_n which_o see_v not_o this_o now_o there_o be_v a_o long_a time_n part_n before_o god_n command_v abram_n to_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n and_o yet_o be_v he_o justify_v before_o we_o see_v then_o in_o sum_n that_o we_o need_v not_o to_o look_v for_o any_o gloze_n out_o of_o saint_n james_n his_o word_n he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v justify_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v show_v to_o be_v justify_v for_o these_o scoffer_n against_o who_o he_o contend_v say_v we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o therefore_o what_o need_v we_o to_o take_v any_o great_a care_n to_o serve_v god_n see_v our_o work_n be_v of_o no_o worth_a neither_o any_o reckon_n be_v make_v of_o they_o in_o time_n to_o come_v now_o first_o and_o foremost_a they_o pervert_v all_o in_o say_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o reckon_n make_v of_o work_n for_o they_o shall_v come_v in_o account_n with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n but_o when_o they_o shall_v scoff_o say_v that_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o do_v good_a work_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o they_o will_v tear_v jesus_n christ_n in_o piece_n for_o by_o faith_n we_o receive_v he_o and_o be_v unite_v unto_o he_o with_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o his_o father_n put_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o regenerate_v and_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o these_o be_v inseparable_a thing_n as_o we_o have_v allege_v out_o of_o saint_n paul_n see_v then_o it_o be_v so_o saint_n james_n have_v good_a cause_n to_o say_v how_o can_v you_o be_v justify_v without_o work_n for_o faith_n say_v he_o without_o work_n be_v dead_a and_o beside_o if_o you_o be_v the_o faithful_a child_n of_o god_n you_o can_v be_v none_o otherwise_o justify_v than_o your_o father_n abram_n be_v now_o abram_n be_v so_o justify_v as_o that_o good_a work_n be_v join_v with_o faith_n and_o therefore_o you_o must_v
