least_o of_o all_o the_o apostle_n because_o he_o persecute_v the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o who_o do_v not_o know_v what_o a_o famous_a preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o be_v and_o suffer_v much_o upon_o that_o score_n so_o then_o the_o thing_n lie_v clear_a and_o plain_a that_o possible_o the_o last_o may_v be_v first_o and_o the_o first_o may_v be_v last_o in_o point_n of_o suffering_n three_o how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_n be_v this_o true_a first_o it_o be_v true_a in_o regard_n of_o privilege_n and_o enjoyment_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o regard_n of_o privilege_n and_o enjoyment_n shall_v be_v last_o at_o the_o work_n of_o suffer_v for_o christ_n and_o many_o that_o be_v last_o in_o privilege_n and_o enjoyment_n shall_v be_v first_o in_o the_o work_n of_o suffer_v for_o christ_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o privilege_n and_o enjoyment_n shall_v be_v last_o in_o suffering_n here_o be_v a_o young_a man_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o christ_n love_v he_o and_o he_o say_v unto_o christ_n what_o shall_v i_o do_v 10_o inherit_v eternal_a life_n keep_v the_o commandment_n say_v christ_n i_o have_v do_v it_o say_v he_o i_o but_o say_v christ_n one_o thing_n thou_o lack_v go_v sell_v what_o thou_o have_v and_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a and_o come_v and_o follow_v i_o and_o thou_o shall_v have_v treasure_n in_o heaven_n and_o say_v the_o text_n he_o go_v away_o sorrowful_a for_o he_o have_v a_o great_a estate_n he_o be_v rich_a he_o be_v a_o privilege_a man_n and_o he_o have_v great_a enjoyment_n for_o he_o be_v a_o rich_a man_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v the_o most_o backward_o for_o to_o leave_v all_o for_o christ_n on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o poor_a receive_v the_o gospel_n and_o as_o the_o poor_a do_v receive_v the_o gospel_n so_o they_o hold_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o and_o suffer_v for_o it_o so_o that_o it_o be_v true_a then_o in_o regard_n of_o privilege_n and_o enjoyment_n second_o this_o be_v true_a in_o regard_n of_o ability_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o regard_n of_o ability_n shall_v be_v last_o in_o suffer_v for_o christ_n and_o many_o that_o be_v last_o in_o ability_n shall_v be_v first_o in_o suffer_v for_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o ability_n so_o the_o disciple_n when_o christ_n say_v to_o they_o be_v you_o able_a to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n that_o i_o be_o to_o drink_v of_o and_o be_v you_o able_a to_o be_v baptize_v with_o the_o baptism_n that_o i_o be_o to_o be_v baptize_v with_o yea_o lord_n say_v they_o we_o be_v able_a but_o when_o christ_n come_v to_o suffer_v it_o be_v say_v they_o all_o forsake_v he_o and_o flee_v first_o in_o point_n of_o ability_n and_o last_o in_o point_n of_o suffering_n but_o marry_o and_o a_o company_n of_o weak_a woman_n cleave_v unto_o christ_n and_o follow_v he_o to_o the_o very_a last_o the_o first_o be_v last_o and_o the_o last_o be_v first_o and_o look_v into_o the_o book_n of_o martyr_n where_o do_v you_o find_v the_o martyr_n grow_v do_v you_o find_v they_o grow_v upon_o university_n few_o be_v scholar_n and_o doctor_n that_o be_v martyr_n but_o grow_v in_o country-town_n and_o village_n so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o origen_n that_o when_o he_o be_v a_o young_a man_n about_o sixteen_o or_o seventeen_o year_n old_a his_o mother_n be_v force_v to_o hide_v his_o very_a shift_n from_o he_o so_o that_o he_o be_v ashamed_a to_o go_v into_o the_o street_n for_o otherwise_o he_o will_v have_v go_v to_o have_v suffer_v martyrdom_n but_o afterward_o when_o he_o come_v to_o be_v a_o great_a doctor_n than_o he_o offer_v to_o the_o idol_n insomuch_o as_o they_o cry_v out_o origen_n have_v sacrifice_v while_o he_o be_v weak_a and_o young_a very_o forward_o to_o suffer_v when_o he_o be_v grow_v strong_a and_o have_v ability_n then_o backward_o the_o last_o shall_v be_v first_o and_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v last_o three_o this_o be_v true_a also_o in_o regard_n of_o action_n professional_a action_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o profession_n and_o of_o great_a performance_n shall_v be_v last_o in_o suffer_v for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o many_o that_o have_v not_o be_v of_o so_o great_a profession_n and_o such_o high_a performance_n shall_v suffer_v when_o it_o come_v to_o it_o they_o shall_v suffer_v for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n you_o have_v a_o instance_n in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o stony_a ground_n it_o receive_v the_o word_n with_o joy_n yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o tribulation_n and_o persecution_n arise_v because_o of_o the_o word_n by_o and_o by_o they_o be_v offend_v so_o they_o be_v high_a and_o first_o in_o profession_n yea_o action_n too_o and_o yet_o the_o last_o in_o suffering_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n you_o know_v the_o story_n there_o that_o go_v together_o a_o certain_a man_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o say_v lord_n i_o will_v follow_v thou_o whithersoever_o thou_o go_v say_v christ_n the_o fox_n have_v hole_n and_o the_o bird_n of_o the_o air_n have_v nest_n but_o the_o son_n of_o man_n have_v not_o whereon_o to_o lay_v his_o head_n then_o christ_n come_v to_o another_o and_o say_v to_o he_o follow_v i_o lord_n say_v he_o i_o must_v go_v bury_v my_o father_n why_o let_v the_o dead_a bury_v their_o dead_a what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o but_o to_o show_v thus_o much_o that_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v last_o and_o the_o last_o shall_v be_v first_o in_o forsake_v their_o worldly_a interest_n for_o christ_n and_o for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n four_o this_o be_v true_a also_o in_o point_n of_o resolution_n many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o resolve_v to_o suffer_v shall_v be_v last_o to_o suffer_v when_o it_o come_v to_o and_o many_o that_o be_v last_o in_o resolve_v shall_v be_v first_o in_o suffering_n lord_n say_v peter_z though_o all_o man_n forsake_v thou_o yet_o will_v not_o i_o brave_o resolve_v but_o though_o he_o be_v first_o in_o the_o resolve_n yet_o he_o be_v first_o in_o forsake_v christ_n the_o cock_n shall_v not_o crow_v before_o thou_o deny_v i_o and_o you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o those_o sanders_n those_o pendleton_n and_o sanders_n two_o in_o the_o book_n of_o martyr_n the_o one_o be_v a_o very_a fat_a man_n and_o he_o will_v burn_v his_o grease_n shall_v fry_v in_o the_o fire_n for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n the_o other_o be_v a_o lean_a man_n and_o he_o cry_v out_o oh_o i_o be_o afraid_a i_o shall_v never_o hold_v out_o but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o lean_a man_n be_v the_o martyr_n and_o the_o fat_a man_n will_v not_o burn_v so_o that_o that_o be_v true_a in_o the_o point_n of_o resolution_n and_o true_a it_o be_v also_o in_o the_o point_n of_o indurance_n and_o pain_n in_o the_o work_n of_o suffer_v and_o in_o that_o many_o that_o be_v first_o in_o the_o work_n of_o suffering_n shall_v be_v last_o in_o the_o reward_n and_o many_o that_o be_v last_o in_o the_o work_n of_o suffering_n shall_v be_v first_o in_o the_o reward_n 1_o cor._n 13._o 3._o though_o i_o give_v all_o my_o good_n to_o feed_v the_o poor_a and_o though_o i_o give_v my_o body_n to_o be_v burn_v and_o have_v not_o charity_n it_o profit_v i_o nothing_o possible_o a_o man_n may_v give_v his_o good_n to_o the_o poor_a part_n with_o his_o worldly_a interest_n to_o the_o poor_a and_o give_v his_o body_n to_o be_v burn_v and_o yet_o want_v love_n so_o then_o the_o first_o in_o the_o very_a work_n of_o suffering_n may_v be_v last_o in_o the_o reward_n it_o be_v true_a in_o that_o respect_n and_o so_o i_o have_v do_v with_o that_o but_o then_o in_o the_o four_o place_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o and_o how_o come_v this_o to_o pass_v that_o many_o that_o ●re_n first_o shall_v be_v last_o and_o many_o that_o be_v last_o shall_v be_v first_o in_o suffering-work_n there_o be_v two_o reason_n for_o it_o the_o first_o be_v draw_v from_o god_n and_o his_o grace_n the_o second_o be_v draw_v from_o ourselves_o and_o suffering_n the_o first_o be_v draw_v from_o god_n and_o his_o grace_n thus_o it_o be_v god_n ordinary_a way_n in_o his_o deal_n with_o his_o creature_n to_o set_v those_o thing_n and_o person_n before_o that_o do_v stand_v behind_o and_o those_o behind_o that_o do_v stand_v before_o as_o in_o printing_n you_o do_v take_v the_o letter_n and_o place_n that_o first_o that_o be_v first_o in_o the_o alphabet_n but_o that_o which_o be_v first_o in_o the_o word_n as_o in_o zeal_n z_o be_v the_o first_o but_o it_o be_v the_o last_o in_o the_o alphabet_n and_o so_o god_n in_o write_v down_o the_o name_n of_o man_n in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n he_o write_v down_o they_o that_o

be_v sure_a therefore_o that_o you_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o that_o you_o fear_v before_o he_o and_o the_o more_o you_o fear_v god_n and_o fear_v before_o he_o the_o less_o will_v you_o fear_v man_n but_o than_o three_o and_o so_o i_o end_v now_o in_o such_o a_o time_n give_v yourself_o much_o to_o prayer_n in_o psal_n 109._o 4._o for_o my_o love_n they_o be_v my_o adversary_n but_o i_o give_v

they_o be_v my_o adversary_n but_o i_o give_v myself_o to_o prayer_n now_o in_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o when_o they_o be_v angry_a and_o their_o rage_n ascend_v up_o to_o heaven_n now_o do_v i_o

look_v into_o that_o four_o of_o the_o act_n there_o you_o find_v that_o they_o be_v angry_a why_o do_v the_o heathen_a rage_n v._o 25._o they_o bring_v the_o second_o psalm_n to_o their_o purpose_n

and_o in_o their_o prayer_n their_o mind_n be_v more_o upon_o their_o duty_n than_o upon_o their_o safety_n they_o go_v to_o god_n and_o spread_v the_o threaten_n of_o the_o enemy_n before_o the_o
