withstand_v the_o interruption_n by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o spite_n the_o devil_n have_v to_o hinder_v one_o sermon_n therefore_o no_o marvel_n though_o he_o cause_v so_o many_o to_o

evangelist_n for_o mathewe_n say_v that_o 10._o one_o bring_v this_o message_n unto_o christ_n mark_v and_o luke_n attribute_v it_o unto_o more_o both_o may_v stand_v for_o the_o word_n which_o his_o mother_n give_v of_o call_v he_o forth_o be_v receive_v of_o the_o rest_n and_o so_o pass_v amongst_o many_o till_o it_o come_v unto_o christ_n so_o that_o one_o and_o many_o may_v be_v say_v to_o bring_v this_o message_n because_o one_o may_v send_v it_o first_o and_o many_o noise_n it_o after_o the_o second_o doubt_n be_v because_o christ_n have_v no_o brethren_n how_o then_o they_o say_v thy_o brethren_n will_v speak_v with_o thou_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o they_o which_o be_v here_o call_v christ_n brethren_n be_v his_o cousin_n by_o the_o mother_n side_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o mother_n sister_n child_n for_o there_o be_v three_o mary_n and_o these_o three_o be_v sister_n marry_o the_o virgin_n and_o marie_n the_o mother_n of_o james_n &_o marie_n the_o wife_n of_o cleophas_n who_o son_n these_o be_v their_o name_n be_v james_n and_o joseph_n &_o judas_n and_o simon_n and_o they_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n brethren_n because_o they_o we●e_v kin_n unto_o he_o therefore_o note_v that_o in_o holy_a scripture_n there_o be_v iiij_o sort_n of_o brethren_n brethren_n by_o nature_n so_o esau_n and_o jacob_n be_v call_v 25_o brethren_n because_o they_o have_v one_o father_n and_o one_o mother_n brethren_n by_o nation_n so_o all_o the_o jew_n be_v call_v brethren_n because_o they_o be_v of_o one_o 22._o country_n brethren_n by_o affinity_n so_o all_o be_v call_v brethren_n which_o be_v of_o one_o family_n and_o so_o abraham_n cal●ed_v 5._o lott_n his_o brother_n and_o sara_n his_o sister_n because_o they_o be_v of_o one_o line_n brethren_n by_o profession_n so_o all_o christian_n be_v call_v brethren_n because_o they_o be_v of_o one_o religion_n these_o be_v brethren_n of_o the_o third_o order_n that_o be_v by_o affinity_n because_o they_o be_v of_o one_o family_n now_o when_o his_o mother_n and_o his_o brethren_n be_v come_v to_o see_v he_o it_o ●s_v say_v that_o they_o can_v not_o come_v near_o he_o because_o of_o the_o press_n here_o be_v auditor_n enough_o christ_n see_v now_o that_o his_o mother_n can_v have_v no_o room_n to_o hear_v he_o but_o after_o a_o while_o it_o be_v low_a water_n again_o when_o the_o shepherd_n be_v strike_v the_o sheep_n be_v scatter_v when_o he_o preach_v in_o the_o street_n and_o in_o the_o temple_n and_o in_o the_o field_n than_o many_o flock_v after_o he_o but_o when_o he_o preach_v upon_o the_o cross_n than_o they_o leave_v he_o which_o say_v they_o will_v never_o forsake_v he_o than_o there_o be_v as_o great_a a_o press_n to_o see_v he_o die_v as_o there_o be_v here_o to_o hear_v he_o preach_v and_o many_o of_o these_o which_o he_o call_v his_o mother_n and_o his_o brethren_n &_o his_o sister_n be_v his_o betrayer_n and_o accuser_n and_o persecutor_n so_o inconstant_a we_o be_v in_o our_o zeal_n more_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o thus_o much_o of_o their_o come_n to_o the_o doctrine_n here_o be_v two_o speaker_n one_o say_v thy_o mother_n and_o thy_o brethren_n be_v come_v to_o speak_v with_o thou_o the_o other_o say_v these_o be_v my_o mother_n &_o my_o brethren_n which_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n &_o do_v it_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o evangelist_n be_v this_o first_o to_o show_v that_o christ_n will_v not_o hinder_v his_o doctrine_n for_o mother_n or_o brethren_n or_o any_o kinsman_n then_o to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o near_a conjunction_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o faithful_a than_o between_o the_o mother_n and_o the_o son_n the_o first_o be_v
already_o and_o preach_v his_o conscience_n in_o reprove_v sin_n a_o voice_n come_v to_o he_o again_o as_o this_o do_v to_o christ_n and_o say_v thy_o friend_n will_v have_v thou_o be_v quiet_a or_o thou_o will_v be_v envy_a for_o that_o which_o thou_o say_v or_o there_o be_v fellow_n which_o lie_v in_o wait_n to_o return_v scorn_n for_o thy_o pain_n so_o sometime_o with_o a_o little_a entreaty_n he_o begin_v to_o draw_v up_o his_o hand_n and_o lay_v his_o finger_n to_o his_o mouth_n and_o preach_v peace_n when_o he_o be_v send_v with_o war_n thus_o be_v we_o cumber_v like_o our_o master_n before_o our_o sermon_n and_o in_o our_o sermon_n and_o after_o our_o sermon_n even_o of_o those_o sometime_o which_o shall_v encourage_v we_o and_o therefore_o as_o christ_n say_v beware_v of_o man_n so_o 14._o i_o say_v beware_v of_o kinsman_n so_o soon_o as_o the_o child_n be_v bear_v their_o parent_n bring_v they_o to_o the_o temple_n and_o baptise_v they_o and_o offer_v they_o unto_o god_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v able_a to_o serve_v he_o they_o tempt_v they_o away_o from_o he_o some_o to_o the_o law_n some_o to_o physic_n some_o to_o merchandise_n and_o some_o to_o husbandry_n and_o have_v rather_o they_o shall_v be_v of_o any_o other_o tribe_n than_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o leni_fw-la which_o serve_v in_o the_o temple_n he_o which_o will_v be_v hinder_v shall_v have_v block_n enough_o but_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o leap_v over_o all_o as_o christ_n do_v over_o this_o if_o we_o shall_v leave_v father_n and_o mother_n and_o wife_n and_o child_n for_o christ_n much_o less_o shall_v we_o care_v for_o labour_n or_o loss_n or_o shame_n or_o trouble_v or_o displeasure_n for_o we_o will_v venture_v these_o for_o our_o friend_n thus_o much_o of_o his_o natural_a kindred_n now_o of_o his_o spiritual_a kindred_n here_o be_v another_o genealogy_n of_o christ_n which_o matthew_n and_o luke_n never_o speak_v of_o as_o christ_n say_v i_o have_v another_o bread_n which_o you_o know_v not_o so_o he_o say_v that_o i_o have_v other_o kinsman_n which_o you_o know_v not_o saint_n john_n write_v to_o a_o christian_a lady_n which_o bring_v up_o her_o child_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n call_v she_o the_o elect_a lady_n show_v that_o 1._o the_o chief_a honour_n of_o lord_n and_o lady_n and_o prince_n be_v to_o be_v elect_a of_o god_n luke_n speak_v of_o certain_a beroean_n which_o receive_v the_o word_n 11._o of_o god_n with_o love_n call_v they_o more_o noble_a man_n than_o the_o rest_n show_v that_o god_n count_v none_o noble_a but_o those_o which_o be_v of_o a_o noble_a spirit_n as_o saint_n john_n call_v none_o elect_v but_o the_o virtuous_a and_o saint_n luke_n call_v none_o noble_a but_o the_o religious_a so_o our_o saviour_n christ_n call_v none_o his_o kinsman_n but_o such_o as_o be_v righteous_a these_o be_v my_o mother_n and_o my_o brethren_n which_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o do_v it_o as_o abraham_n child_n be_v not_o count_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n so_o christ_n kinsman_n be_v not_o count_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o ●_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o flesh_n be_v not_o make_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n but_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o god_n be_v not_o call_v the_o father_n of_o body_n but_o the_o father_n 9_o of_o spirit_n now_o god_n which_o be_v a_o spirit_n prefer_v they_o which_o be_v kin_n unto_o he_o in_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o esau_n be_v not_o bless_v because_o he_o be_v of_o isaack_n flesh_n but_o jacob_n be_v bless_v because_o he_o be_v of_o isaack_n spirit_n as_o we_o love_v in_o the_o flesh_n so_o christ_n love_v in_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o he_o call_v none_o his_o kinsman_n but_o they_o which_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o do_v it_o it_o seem_v that_o paul_n think_v of_o this_o say_n when_o he_o say_v till_o christ_n 10_o be_v reform_v in_o you_o if_o christ_n be_v find_v in_o we_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v than_o we_o be_v chist_n mother_n every_o one_o which_o will_v have_v christ_n to_o be_v his_o saviour_n must_v be_v christ_n his_o mother_n the_o virgin_n ask_v the_o angel_n how_o she_o can_v bear_v christ_n see_v she_o have_v not_o know_v a_o man_n so_o you_o may_v ask_v how_o you_o can_v bear_v christ_n see_v he_o be_v bear_v already_o as_o there_o be_v a_o second_o come_v of_o christ_n so_o there_o be_v a_o second_o birth_n of_o christ._n when_o we_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o then_o christ_n be_v bear_v in_o we_o again_o the_o virgin_n marie_n be_v his_o mother_n by_o the_o flesh_n

as_o isaac_n love_v esav_n for_o venison_n then_o we_o may_v miss_v the_o blessing_n as_o esav_n do_v but_o as_o john_n say_v he_o love_v in_o the_o truth_n so_o christ_n love_v in_o the_o truth_n
