divinity_n namely_o godliness_n alter_v and_o change_v the_o perverse_a and_o greedy_a mind_n of_o man_n and_o so_o make_v it_o like_a to_o god_n mind_n and_o will_n so_o that_o god_n will_v be_v

say_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o bless_a be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o be_v more_o than_o nature_n and_o the_o natural_a man_n can_v attain_v unto_o as_o that_o example_n of_o pharaoh_n show_v and_o experience_n teach_v if_o we_o cast_v our_o eye_n upon_o the_o godless_a and_o profane_a of_o our_o day_n who_o if_o matter_n answer_v not_o their_o expectation_n swear_v murmur_n and_o grudge_v against_o god_n yea_o accuse_v god_n of_o folly_n so_o that_o godliness_n change_v the_o discontent_a will_n of_o man_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o in_o whosoever_o it_o be_v there_o be_v contentedness_n &_o that_o which_o they_o have_v be_v account_v by_o they_o sufficiency_n and_o beside_o this_o reas_n it_o need_v not_o to_o seem_v strange_a unto_o we_o if_o we_o consider_v by_o what_o tenure_n or_o service_n the_o godly_a hold_n that_o portion_n they_o have_v sure_o their_o tenure_n be_v in_o capite_fw-la which_o be_v christ_n jesus_n whereof_o they_o be_v always_o sure_a and_o in_o possession_n and_o so_o rest_v content_v with_o their_o tenure_n which_o make_v david_n to_o say_v from_o a_o feel_a soul_n that_o he_o find_v more_o joy_n in_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n that_o be_v that_o he_o have_v a_o tenure_n in_o capite_fw-la christ_n jesus_n than_o all_o earthly_a mind_a man_n which_o he_o mean_v by_o they_o in_o that_o place_n have_v or_o can_v possible_o have_v of_o their_o increase_n of_o wine_n and_o oil_n hold_v it_o not_o in_o capite_fw-la as_o he_o do_v of_o which_o mind_n paul_n be_v not_o much_o differ_v from_o he_o nay_o altogether_o agree_v with_o he_o when_o he_o say_v and_o no_o otherwise_o then_o he_o think_v that_o he_o count_v all_o thing_n dung_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o excellent_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n jesus_n which_o do_v plain_o show_v we_o the_o force_n of_o this_o reason_n that_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n child_n be_v assure_v of_o christ_n whereby_o they_o hold_v all_o they_o have_v they_o therefore_o be_v content_v with_o whatsoever_o portion_n god_n bestow_v upon_o they_o and_o count_v that_o sufficiency_n and_o enough_o and_o can_v say_v that_o their_o heritage_n be_v a_o goodly_a heritage_n to_o make_v this_o a_o touchstone_n and_o trial_n use_v 1_o what_o godliness_n there_o be_v in_o we_o by_o this_o namely_o by_o thy_o contentedness_n for_o without_o question_n according_a to_o our_o contentment_n be_v our_o growth_n in_o grace_n and_o answerable_a thereto_o be_v our_o proficiency_n in_o christ_n school_n and_o that_o we_o may_v not_o
