by_o the_o prophet_n jonas_n say_v it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o city_n of_o ninive_n shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o that_o after_o 40._o day_n and_o by_o esay_n the_o prophet_n he_o

chapter_n thus_o speak_v if_o i_o shall_v speak_v of_o any_o kingdom_n or_o nation_n to_o root_v it_o out_o and_o to_o destroy_v it_o and_o they_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n repent_v they_o i_o also_o will_v repent_v i_o and_o on_o the_o other_o seed_n if_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o plant_v and_o to_o build_v any_o kingdom_n or_o nation_n and_o they_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n behave_v themselves_o wicked_o i_o will_v not_o perform_v these_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v but_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o promise_n whereof_o paul_n here_o conditional_o paul_n speak_v not_o of_o such_o a_o promise_n as_o be_v annex_v with_o a_o condition_n that_o which_o consist_v free_o be_v not_o conditional_o speak_v depend_v not_o of_o any_o condition_n as_o do_v a_o great_a many_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n unto_o which_o pertain_v these_o threaten_n which_o be_v now_o allege_v yea_o the_o apostle_n himself_o sufficient_o express_v of_o what_o kind_n of_o promise_n he_o speak_v when_o he_o say_v by_o faith_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v of_o grace_n for_o if_o it_o consist_v frealy_a they_o hang_v it_o not_o of_o any_o condition_n or_o supposition_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o promise_n can_v in_o no_o case_n be_v make_v frustrate_a this_o may_v the_o easy_o be_v understand_v by_o a_o similitude_n if_o a_o physician_n shall_v by_o take_v of_o any_o medicine_n promise_v health_n but_o yet_o upon_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o will_v have_v for_o his_o pain_n infinite_a sum_n of_o money_n &_o that_o the_o similitude_n a_o similitude_n sick_a person_n shall_v observe_v a_o very_a hard_a diet_n a_o poor_a man_n may_v easy_o answer_v that_o that_o promise_n of_o health_n be_v vain_a both_o for_o that_o he_o have_v not_o the_o money_n to_o pay_v and_o also_o for_o that_o be_v weak_a he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o observe_v the_o diet_n which_o be_v prescribe_v he_o but_o contrariwyse_o if_o a_o man_n promise_v a_o medicine_n which_o he_o will_v geve_v free_o nether_a require_v any_o work_n of_o the_o sick_a person_n but_o only_o that_o he_o will_v drink_v or_o some_o other_o way_n receive_v his_o medicine_n this_o promise_n be_v easy_o make_v firm_a so_o undoubted_o stand_v the_o case_n here_o the_o promise_n be_v offer_v unto_o we_o and_o that_o free_o for_o only_o be_v of_o we_o require_v that_o by_o faith_n we_o receive_v it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o principal_a point_n whereupon_o depend_v the_o certaynty_a of_o the_o promise_n namely_o for_o that_o the_o promise_n consist_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v offer_v free_o the_o other_o principal_a point_n be_v the_o nature_n of_o faith_n for_o faith_n be_v a_o firm_a faith_n be_v not_o a_o uncertain_a or_o doubtful_a assent_n of_o the_o certainty_n of_o salvation_n we_o must_v not_o doubt_v of_o perseverance_n the_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v firm_a assent_n not_o uncertain_a or_o doubtful_a but_o fix_v and_o constant_a as_o the_o apostle_n will_v afterward_o more_o at_o large_a declare_v when_o he_o discourse_v the_o example_n of_o abraham_n by_o these_o two_o principal_a point_n it_o be_v manifest_v how_o wicked_o they_o deal_v which_o teach_v man_n continual_o to_o doubt_v of_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n for_o if_o as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n teach_v we_o we_o ought_v to_o hope_v and_o such_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o hope_n not_o to_o confound_v we_o may_v manifest_o infer_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v of_o our_o salvation_n there_o be_v which_o pretend_v that_o their_o doubt_n hereof_o spring_v for_o that_o they_o be_v uncertain_a whether_o they_o shall_v persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n or_o no._n but_o these_o man_n shall_v consider_v that_o we_o ought_v always_o to_o pray_v for_o perseverance_n for_o as_o say_v cyprian_n who_o also_o augustine_n follow_v in_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o ask_v in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v include_v perseverance_n and_o as_o james_n teach_v we_o must_v ask_v without_o doubt_v wherefore_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o we_o must_v by_o no_o mean_n doubt_v of_o preseverance_n and_o especial_o see_v we_o have_v in_o our_o heart_n the_o holy_a ghost_n always_o doubt_v they_z which_o believe_v that_o their_o sin_n be_v a_o let_v unto_o the_o promise_n be_v easy_o drive_v into_o desperation_n they_o which_o be_v not_o sure_a of_o their_o salvation_n can_v neither_o have_v peace_n nor_o tranquillity_n of_o conscience_n what_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o as_o touch_v certainty_n of_o salvation_n sin_n that_o waste_v the_o conscience_n we_o be_v never_o so_o assure_v but_o that_o there_o arise_v some_o doubt_n these_o thing_n be_v not_o repugnant_a in_o a_o man_n to_o be_v certain_a &_o yet_o somewhat_o to_o doubt_v bear_v a_o excellent_a testemony_n unto_o we_o thereof_o for_o as_o paul_n say_v in_o this_o epistle_n it_o be_v the_o spirit_n which_o bear_v witness_n unto_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o he_o which_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o he_o and_o paul_n write_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v sure_a that_o nether_a life_n nor_o death_n nor_o principality_n nor_o power_n can_v pluck_v he_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n namely_o from_o that_o love_n wherewith_o god_n love_v he_o but_o that_o be_v frivoulous_a which_o some_o allege_v namely_o that_o paul_n speak_v these_o thing_n of_o himself_o only_o and_o that_o by_o a_o certain_a peculiar_a and_o assure_a revelation_n for_o when_o we_o come_v to_o that_o place_n we_o will_v declare_v that_o those_o thing_n pertain_v to_o all_o man_n universal_o other_o say_v that_o sin_n fear_v we_o away_o from_o the_o assure_a confidence_n of_o our_o salvation_n but_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o life_n we_o can_v not_o be_v without_o sin_n for_o john_n say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o us._n wherefore_o so_o to_o teach_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o drive_v man_n to_o desperation_n final_o forasmuch_o as_o paul_n say_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v free_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n it_o manifest_o declare_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v certain_a of_o their_o salvation_n otherwise_o there_o can_v be_v no_o tranquillity_n &_o peace_n in_o the_o conscience_n howbeit_o there_o be_v certain_a thing_n to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o that_o we_o be_v not_o dangerous_o deceive_v in_o this_o certaynty_a for_o first_o we_o ought_v to_o knowâ—_n that_o it_o spring_v not_o of_o any_o righteousness_n

as_o god_n have_v command_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n this_o exposition_n in_o deed_n seem_v to_o be_v somewhat_o more_o witty_a and_o more_o likely_a howbeit_o by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o

for_o paul_n seem_v to_o speak_v against_o that_o sentence_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o 22._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n he_o be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n for_o if_o he_o be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o yâ—_z dead_a how_o be_v he_o here_o say_v to_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o if_o the_o matter_n be_v more_o narrow_o examine_v there_o be_v not_o herein_o contrariety_n for_o there_o the_o lord_n will_v hereby_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a for_o that_o god_n can_v not_o be_v true_o the_o god_n of_o abraham_n of_o isaac_n and_o of_o jacob_n unless_o he_o will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v save_v and_o that_o whole_o both_o as_o touch_v soul_n and_o body_n for_o it_o be_v the_o propriety_n of_o god_n to_o save_v thâ—se_a who_o god_n he_o be_v and_o the_o scripture_n in_o exodus_fw-la pronounce_v that_o god_n be_v the_o god_n of_o those_o patriarch_n wherefore_o they_o live_v and_o shall_v more_o full_o live_v in_o the_o bless_a resurrection_n hereby_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o christ_n speak_v of_o those_o which_o be_v think_v to_o be_v utter_o dead_a both_o in_o soul_n and_o in_o body_n but_o god_n can_v not_o be_v their_o god_n for_o he_o can_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o death_n to_o prevail_v against_o he_o but_o here_o paul_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v lord_n of_o of_o the_o dead_a which_o be_v dead_a in_o body_n only_o but_o live_v in_o spirit_n and_o when_o time_n come_v shall_v rise_v again_o wherefore_o we_o see_v that_o between_o these_o place_n there_o be_v undoubted_o no_o contrarity_n but_o because_o we_o be_v by_o the_o way_n light_v upon_o those_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v as_o i_o think_v in_o they_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v first_o that_o although_o of_o they_o be_v proper_o conclude_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o godly_a who_o god_n god_n confess_v himself_o to_o be_v yet_o follow_v it_o that_o of_o the_o self_n same_o word_n may_v be_v conclude_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o wicked_a for_o if_o god_n of_o his_o goodness_n do_v so_o
favour_v the_o godly_a that_o he_o will_v not_o only_o have_v their_o soul_n to_o be_v bless_v but_o also_o will_v geve_v blessedness_n to_o their_o body_n he_o will_v also_o restore_v unto_o the_o

the_o prophet_n there_o be_v touch_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a certain_a other_o more_o notable_a place_n which_o yet_o christ_n allege_v prophet_n why_o christ_n bring_v not_o

beseech_v god_n not_o to_o suffer_v this_o singular_a benefit_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n to_o wear_v away_o for_o age_n in_o our_o mind_n that_o the_o common_a proverb_n be_v not_o apply_v
