power_n or_o wisdom_n of_o this_o world_n do_v blind_a our_o eye_n at_o any_o time_n but_o that_o we_o may_v direct_v our_o sight_n eye_n and_o sense_n always_o to_o behold_v the_o kingdom_n of_o thy_o son_n and_o that_o we_o may_v so_o be_v there_o fix_v that_o nothing_o may_v hinder_v we_o to_o haste_v forward_o in_o the_o course_n of_o our_o vocation_n while_o that_o at_o the_o length_n we_o may_v come_v to_o the_o mark_n which_o thou_o have_v set_v before_o we_o and_o unto_o the_o which_o thou_o do_v call_v we_o at_o this_o day_n by_o the_o trump_n and_o preach_v of_o thy_o gospel_n and_o that_o at_o the_o length_n thou_o will_v gather_v we_o into_o that_o bless_a eternity_n which_o be_v purchase_v for_o we_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o this_o thy_o son_n and_o that_o we_o may_v never_o be_v break_v by_o this_o stone_n with_o the_o wicked_a world_n but_o that_o be_v strengthen_v with_o his_o power_n we_o may_v by_o he_o be_v raise_v up_o above_o all_o the_o heaven_n amen_n 44_o and_o in_o the_o day_n of_o these_o king_n shall_v the_o god_n of_o heaven_n set_v up_o a_o kingdom_n which_o shall_v never_o be_v destroy_v and_o this_o kingdom_n shall_v not_o be_v give_v to_o a_o other_o people_n but_o it_o shall_v break_v and_o destroy_v all_o the_o other_o kingdom_n and_o it_o shall_v stand_v for_o ever_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n shall_v they_o raise_v up_o a_o kingdom_n which_o shall_v never_o be_v destroy_v neither_o shall_v this_o kingdom_n be_v give_v to_o a_o other_o people_n it_o shall_v destroy_v all_o and_o itself_o shall_v for_o ever_o the_o which_o comfortable_a promise_n of_o this_o eternal_a kingdom_n do_v not_o only_o pertain_v to_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o only_a king_n that_o live_v and_o reign_v for_o ever_o but_o also_o to_o his_o church_n which_o be_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o his_o kingdom_n to_o all_o his_o people_n and_o subject_n and_o to_o every_o particular_a member_n and_o person_n of_o the_o same_o thus_o do_v this_o eternal_a king_n communicate_v his_o eternity_n to_o all_o his_o because_o he_o will_v have_v always_o a_o kingdom_n in_o this_o world_n though_o the_o world_n can_v not_o always_o see_v it_o and_o he_o do_v regenerate_v all_o his_o true_a subject_n of_o this_o kingdom_n with_o his_o eternal_a spirit_n into_o everlasting_a life_n to_o reign_v with_o he_o in_o his_o kingdom_n for_o ever_o therefore_o the_o perpetuity_n of_o this_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v true_a after_o two_o sort_n beside_o the_o eternity_n that_o be_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n first_o in_o the_o whole_a body_n which_o be_v the_o church_n who_o though_o it_o be_v often_o time_n so_o scatter_v that_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v in_o man_n eye_n yet_o do_v it_o never_o utter_o perish_v but_o god_n do_v preserve_v it_o by_o his_o secret_a and_o incomprehensible_a wisdom_n and_o power_n so_o that_o it_o shall_v remain_v for_o ever_o second_o in_o every_o one_o of_o the_o faithful_a there_o be_v a_o other_o perpetuity_n because_o they_o be_v bear_v again_o by_o the_o incorruptible_a seed_n and_o be_v bear_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v not_o only_o the_o mortal_a child_n of_o adam_n but_o they_o carry_v the_o heavenly_a life_n in_o themselves_o because_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v in_o they_o be_v life_n as_o paul_n say_v to_o the_o roman_n 8.10_o and_o we_o see_v how_o this_o kingdom_n have_v be_v eternal_a ever_o since_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v be_v preach_v for_o though_o the_o church_n have_v seem_v sometime_o as_o it_o have_v be_v bury_v yet_o god_n give_v life_n in_o the_o very_a grave_n of_o idolatry_n and_o ignorance_n unto_o his_o elect_a and_o now_o how_o be_v it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o child_n of_o the_o church_n &_o the_o soldier_n of_o christ_n kingdom_n be_v come_v forth_o as_o it_o be_v of_o the_o grave_n in_o such_o abundance_n but_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o zion_n because_o his_o time_n appoint_v be_v come_v 102.13_o and_o therefore_o his_o servant_n delight_v to_o build_v up_o zion_n yea_o he_o himself_o will_v build_v it_o and_o his_o glory_n shall_v appear_v and_o the_o heathen_a shall_v fear_v and_o all_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n at_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o people_n which_o shall_v be_v as_o it_o be_v new_a create_v shall_v praise_v the_o lord_n furthermore_o daniel_n say_v that_o this_o kingdom_n can_v not_o be_v translate_v from_o one_o to_o a_o other_o as_o the_o first_o be_v from_o baltazar_n to_o darius_n the_o second_o from_o darius_n to_o alexander_n the_o third_o from_o that_o curse_a kindred_n of_o alexander_n and_o his_o prince_n to_o the_o roman_n the_o four_o of_o the_o roman_n be_v turn_v not_o only_o to_o stranger_n of_o foreign_a nation_n but_o to_o swineherd_n as_o justine_n write_v to_o beast_n as_o be_v heliogabalus_n to_o monster_n in_o nature_n as_o be_v nero_n and_o caligula_n and_o such_o like_a like_v as_o also_o as_o the_o gospel_n do_v grow_v it_o continual_o decay_v because_o it_o be_v so_o manifest_a a_o enemy_n to_o christ_n kingdom_n but_o as_o for_o christ_n kingdom_n neither_o can_v christ_n be_v spoil_v of_o his_o power_n and_o dominion_n neither_o yet_o we_o his_o member_n can_v lose_v this_o kingdom_n whereof_o he_o have_v make_v we_o partaker_n therefore_o christ_n reign_v for_o ever_o as_o well_o in_o himself_o as_o in_o his_o member_n without_o any_o peril_n of_o alteration_n for_o we_o shall_v be_v preserve_v for_o ever_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o he_o have_v receive_v we_o into_o his_o protection_n that_o we_o can_v not_o perish_v john_n 10._o 1.5_o we_o that_o be_v keep_v through_o his_o power_n by_o faith_n as_o peter_n say_v may_v be_v sure_a and_o quiet_a for_o what_o so_o ever_o the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n devise_v against_o we_o we_o shall_v for_o ever_o remain_v safe_a and_o sure_a in_o christ_n and_o thus_o will_v daniel_n have_v all_o man_n to_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o stability_n any_o where_o how_o great_a so_o ever_o the_o power_n or_o glory_n appear_v but_o only_o in_o christ_n where_o daniel_n say_v that_o this_o stone_n be_v hew_v forth_o of_o the_o mountain_n without_o hand_n he_o declare_v that_o nothing_o in_o christ_n kingdom_n be_v wrought_v by_o man_n power_n but_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n be_v wrought_v by_o god_n as_o isa._n 63_o 63.5_o because_o the_o lord_n do_v see_v no_o helper_n in_o the_o world_n he_o arm_v himself_o with_o his_o own_o strength_n again_o herein_o we_o note_v his_o low_a and_o base_a beginning_n like_v unto_o a_o stone_n that_o have_v no_o form_n nor_o fashion_n which_o both_o be_v comprehend_v in_o micha_n 5.2_o where_o he_o say_v thou_o bethleem_n ephratha_n be_v the_o least_o amongst_o the_o thousand_o of_o juda_n yet_o forth_o of_o thou_o shall_v he_o come_v unto_o i_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o ruler_n in_o israel_n who_o go_n forth_o have_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n thus_o daniel_n will_v answer_v man_n gross_a imagination_n which_o may_v think_v that_o because_o christ_n glory_n do_v not_o appear_v so_o great_a at_o the_o first_o as_z in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n and_o because_o yet_o his_o kingdom_n be_v under_o the_o cross_n that_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o will_v have_v we_o to_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n to_o the_o heaven_n and_o behold_v god_n power_n herein_o who_o work_v his_o glory_n contrary_a to_o man_n judgement_n 45_o where_o thou_o see_v that_o the_o stone_n be_v cut_v out_o of_o the_o mountain_n without_o hand_n and_o that_o it_o break_v in_o piece_n the_o iron_n the_o brass_n the_o clay_n the_o silver_n and_o the_o gold_n so_o the_o great_a god_n have_v show_v the_o king_n what_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v hereafter_o and_o the_o dream_n be_v true_a and_o the_o interpretation_n thereof_o be_v sure_a this_o must_v we_o always_o consider_v that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v unto_o pilate_n that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n no_o man_n can_v see_v how_o it_o spring_v or_o spread_v 18._o &_o how_o soever_o the_o child_n of_o this_o kingdom_n be_v disperse_v or_o scatter_v and_o be_v neither_o name_v nor_o know_v in_o the_o world_n yet_o be_v it_o certain_a that_o this_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o his_o christ_n remain_v safe_a &_o sound_a 19_o though_o neither_o eliah_n nor_o any_o other_o man_n can_v see_v it_o and_o that_o this_o kingdom_n shall_v overcome_v all_o power_n that_o stand_v up_o against_o it_o ¶_o the_o prayer_n grant_v almighty_a god_n see_v thou_o have_v make_v it_o open_a and_o know_v unto_o we_o by_o so_o many_o so_o clear_a and_o most_o sure_a testimony_n that_o we_o may_v look_v for_o none_o other_o redeemer_n than_o

than_o other_o so_o shall_v we_o use_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n &_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o instruct_v other_o for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o a_o man_n himself_o only_o to_o abstain_v from_o evil_a unless_o he_o help_v other_o and_o join_v they_o also_o with_o he_o into_o the_o society_n of_o goodness_n and_o true_a holiness_n the_o which_o example_n may_v teach_v we_o our_o duty_n now_o and_o at_o all_o time_n 8_o but_o daniel_n purpose_v in_o his_o heart_n not_o to_o be_v pollute_v with_o the_o portion_n of_o the_o king_n meat_n and_o drink_n and_o he_o desire_v of_o the_o master_n of_o the_o eunuch_n that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v pollute_v hear_v again_o daniel_n declare_v that_o he_o have_v always_o his_o heart_n bend_v to_o avoid_v all_o thing_n that_o may_v any_o way_n pollute_v he_o and_o make_v he_o forget_v himself_o and_o his_o state_n but_o here_o some_o do_v doubt_n whether_o any_o such_o matter_n be_v in_o the_o meat_n and_o the_o drink_n that_o daniel_n ought_v to_o abstain_v from_o they_o for_o this_o seem_v some_o note_n of_o superstition_n and_o we_o know_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v pure_a unto_o the_o pure_a which_o rule_n be_v true_a in_o all_o world_n again_o we_o do_v read_v no_o such_o thing_n of_o joseph_n and_o it_o be_v very_o like_o that_o daniel_n afterward_o do_v use_v such_o meat_n when_o he_o be_v in_o his_o great_a authority_n with_o the_o king_n wherefore_o this_o be_v not_o always_o observe_v of_o daniel_n and_o therefore_o it_o may_v seem_v now_o either_o a_o unadvised_a zeal_n or_o to_o much_o singularity_n to_o this_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o god_n allow_v it_o in_o daniel_n &_o in_o his_o fellow_n as_o it_o be_v by_o miracle_n preserve_v they_o fair_a like_v in_o their_o mourn_a &_o straight_o diet_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o by_o god_n spirit_n they_o be_v thus_o at_o the_o first_o move_v to_o abstain_v for_o a_o time_n from_o the_o king_n delicate_n and_o so_o to_o record_n that_o they_o be_v exile_n and_o captive_n bring_v from_o the_o holy_a city_n and_o the_o holy_a kindred_n of_o abraham_n into_o a_o idolatrous_a country_n and_o people_n who_o manner_n be_v abominable_a unto_o they_o and_o so_o they_o count_v their_o fine_a meat_n and_o dainty_a fare_n pollution_n and_o abomination_n for_o the_o consequence_n that_o will_v have_v ensue_v if_o they_o have_v greedy_o give_v themselves_o unto_o they_o for_o daniel_n know_v the_o danger_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v be_v corrupt_v with_o heathenish_a manner_n if_o they_o have_v thus_o at_o the_o first_o give_v themselves_o up_o to_o have_v be_v abuse_v with_o sumptuous_a fare_n and_o princely_a dish_n wherefore_o abstain_v from_o they_o he_o keep_v his_o mind_n in_o reverence_n to_o god_n he_o retain_v the_o remembrance_n of_o his_o own_o state_n and_o country_n he_o disappoint_v the_o king_n of_o his_o crafty_a purpose_n and_o grow_v into_o more_o credit_n through_o god_n providence_n ¶_o the_o prayer_n grant_v oh_o most_o merciful_a god_n that_o so_o long_o as_o we_o wander_v in_o this_o wretched_a world_n we_o may_v so_o take_v our_o meat_n and_o drink_v for_o the_o infirmity_n of_o our_o flesh_n that_o we_o never_o be_v corrupt_v by_o fine_a fare_n wherein_o the_o flesh_n delight_v neither_o yet_o by_o any_o foolish_a superstition_n nor_o that_o we_o be_v draw_v away_o at_o any_o time_n from_o temperance_n and_o sobriety_n but_o let_v we_o always_o remember_v so_o to_o use_v our_o abundance_n that_o when_o we_o abound_v in_o all_o thing_n most_o plentiful_o we_o may_v geve_v ourselves_o to_o moderate_a abstinence_n continual_o as_o also_o that_o we_o may_v patient_o bear_v all_o poverty_n and_o hunger_n when_o it_o come_v and_o that_o we_o may_v so_o use_v liberty_n in_o our_o meat_n and_o drink_n that_o always_o the_o glory_n of_o thy_o name_n oh_o lord_n may_v be_v before_o our_o eye_n and_o that_o such_o frugality_n may_v appear_v in_o all_o our_o life_n that_o we_o may_v continual_o seek_v that_o satiety_n and_o fullness_n whereby_o we_o shall_v be_v satiate_v for_o ever_o most_o abundant_o when_o the_o glory_n of_o thy_o countenance_n shall_v appear_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o heaven_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n amen_o 9_o now_o god_n have_v bring_v daniel_n into_o favour_n and_o tender_a love_n with_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o eunuch_n 10_o and_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o eunuch_n say_v unto_o daniel_n i_o fear_v my_o lord_n the_o king_n who_o have_v appoint_v your_o meat_n and_o your_o drink_n therefore_o if_o he_o see_v your_o face_n worse_o like_a than_o the_o other_o child_n which_o be_v of_o your_o sort_n they_o shall_v you_o make_v i_o lose_v my_o head_n unto_o the_o king_n 11_z then_o say_v daniel_n to_o melzar_n who_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o eunuch_n have_v set_v over_o daniel_n hananiah_n mishael_n and_o azariah_n 12_o prove_v thy_o servant_n i_o beseech_v thou_o ten_o day_n and_o let_v they_o geve_v we_o pulse_n to_o eat_v and_o water_n to_o drink_v 13_o then_o let_v our_o countenance_n be_v look_v upon_o before_o thou_o and_o the_o countenance_n of_o the_o child_n that_o eat_v of_o the_o portion_n of_o the_o king_n meat_n and_o as_o thou_o see_v deal_v with_o thy_o servant_n 14_o so_o he_o consent_v to_o they_o 15_o and_o at_o the_o end_n of_o ten_o day_n their_o countenance_n appear_v fair_a and_o better_a like_n then_o all_o the_o child_n which_o do_v eat_v of_o the_o king_n meat_n ¶_o the_o meditation_n where_o it_o be_v write_v that_o god_n give_v daniel_n favour_n with_o the_o chief_a eunuch_n we_o must_v consider_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_o towards_o his_o servant_n how_o he_o turn_v the_o cruel_a heart_n unto_o mercy_n and_o pity_n that_o we_o may_v be_v the_o more_o bold_a to_o go_v forward_o with_o god_n business_n through_o all_o danger_n for_o this_o may_v many_o time_n come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o can_v not_o do_v the_o office_n whereunto_o god_n have_v call_v we_o without_o present_a danger_n of_o life_n as_o that_o he_o shall_v account_v the_o king_n meat_n a_o pollution_n which_o be_v but_o a_o captive_a and_o a_o prisoner_n can_v not_o be_v without_o great_a danger_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o eunuch_n answer_n and_o because_o we_o will_v fly_v such_o danger_n we_o wax_v coward_n and_o sluggish_a many_o time_n daniel_n therefore_o to_o encourage_v we_o in_o god_n matter_n declare_v that_o god_n give_v he_o favour_n with_o this_o eunuch_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o cast_v our_o care_n upon_o god_n when_o any_o worldly_a terror_n or_o menace_n of_o man_n will_v terrify_v we_o from_o the_o follow_v of_o god_n spirit_n and_o here_o we_o perceive_v that_o it_o be_v in_o god_n hand_n to_o turn_v their_o heart_n which_o rage_n against_o we_o so_o that_o he_o can_v deliver_v we_o from_o all_o peril_n when_o he_o please_v thus_o god_n cause_v the_o king_n which_o may_v have_v use_v he_o as_o a_o slave_n to_o command_v he_o to_o be_v use_v as_o a_o prince_n child_n and_o his_o governor_n also_o to_o be_v very_o favourable_a unto_o he_o whereby_o we_o gather_v this_o general_a doctrine_n that_o man_n heart_n be_v govern_v by_o god_n so_o that_o he_o can_v mollify_v all_o fierceness_n and_o cruelty_n and_o make_v wolf_n like_o lamb_n so_o oft_o as_o it_o like_v his_o good_a pleasure_n as_o for_o example_n when_o his_o people_n come_v forth_o of_o egypt_n god_n give_v they_o such_o favour_n that_o the_o egyptian_n deliver_v unto_o they_o all_o their_o chief_a jewel_n and_o ornament_n now_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o egyptian_n hate_v they_o nevertheless_o what_o cause_v they_o then_o to_o bring_v forth_o to_o the_o israelite_n all_o their_o precious_a jewel_n only_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o the_o israelite_n who_o even_o then_o put_v into_o their_o heart_n new_a affection_n and_o so_o of_o the_o contrary_n must_v we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v in_o god_n hand_n to_o make_v our_o dear_a friend_n our_o great_a enemy_n wherefore_o we_o must_v seek_v god_n in_o all_o thing_n truth_n it_o be_v that_o god_o frame_v &_o form_v some_o from_o their_o birth_n to_o be_v either_o mild_a or_o cruel_a but_o he_o do_v not_o this_o only_a for_o once_o but_o daily_o and_o continual_o when_o it_o so_o please_v he_o like_a as_o also_o he_o lighten_v the_o mind_n or_o blind_v they_o every_o

learn_v that_o man_n heart_n and_o mind_n be_v so_o govern_v by_o god_n secret_a inspiration_n that_o he_o change_v they_o at_o his_o good_a pleasure_n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o need_n not_o much_o to_o fear_v our_o enemy_n who_o
