say_v i_o that_o we_o be_v resolve_v hereof_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v too_o blockish_a if_o we_o be_v not_o touch_v yet_o more_o to_o the_o quick_a and_o set_v on_o fire_n with_o

be_v that_o no_o impediment_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o pray_v general_o for_o all_o man_n for_o the_o wretched_a unbeliever_n and_o the_o ignorant_a sort_n have_v great_a need_n too_o be_v sew_v for_o unto_o god_n for_o behold_v they_o be_v in_o the_o high_a way_n too_o destruction_n if_o we_o see_v a_o beast_n at_o the_o point_n to_o perish_v we_o will_v have_v pity_n of_o it_o and_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v when_o we_o see_v a_o soul_n in_o peril_n which_o be_v so_o precious_a before_o god_n as_o he_o have_v show_v in_o that_o he_o have_v ransom_v they_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o

so_o then_o saint_n paul_n meaning_n in_o this_o text_n be_v not_o that_o we_o shall_v let_v the_o wretched_a unbeliever_n alone_o without_o care_n of_o they_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v pray_v general_o for_o all_o man_n howbeit_o he_o show_v we_o therewithal_o that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o special_a care_n of_o those_o who_o god_n have_v knit_v unto_o we_o by_o a_o straight_a bond_n likewise_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o almesedeede_n 1●_o his_o intent_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v do_v too_o all_o man_n without_o exception_n which_o have_v need_v but_o yet_o he_o add_v that_o we_o must_v special_o succour_v they_o that_o be_v of_o the_o household_n of_o faith_n even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o our_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n for_o the_o spiritual_a brotherhood_n which_o god_n have_v set_v among_o we_o ought_v too_o touch_v we_o the_o more_o and_o too_o make_v the_o church_n of_o god_n too_o come_v before_o our_o eye_n and_o into_o our_o remembrance_n as_o oft_o as_o we_o pray_v and_o these_o word_n our_o father_n ought_v too_o teach_v we_o too_o make_v our_o prayer_n common_a for_o none_o of_o we_o can_v say_v my_o father_n alone_o of_o himself_o but_o we_o call_v he_o we_o too_o show_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v such_o care_n of_o ourselves_o as_o to_o forget_v they_o that_o belong_v unto_o we_o and_o be_v link_v to_o we_o with_o so_o near_o a_o knot_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o the_o saint_n now_o be_v this_o well_o print_v in_o our_o heart_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o we_o shall_v be_v well_o wake_v too_o pray_v too_o our_o god_n without_o end_n or_o cease_v for_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o state_n and_o plight_n of_o the_o church_n in_o these_o day_n although_o our_o lord_n give_v we_o some_o rest_n yet_o be_v our_o poor_a brethren_n torment_v by_o tyrant_n and_o by_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o faith_n some_o be_v fain_o too_o flee_v some_o have_v their_o good_n take_v from_o they_o many_o be_v thrust_v into_o prison_n and_o other_o some_o be_v burn_v at_o the_o stake_n all_o these_o poor_a soul_n be_v in_o unquietness_n and_o put_v too_o some_o new_a terror_n every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v as_o terrible_a manace_v and_o threaten_v as_o may_v be_v we_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n drive_v all_o those_o forward_a with_o outrageous_a fury_n which_o will_v abolish_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o see_v what_o scatter_n be_v make_v by_o the_o stumble_a block_n that_o satan_n thrust_v in_o by_o his_o champion_n we_o see_v how_o a_o great_a sort_n seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o too_o put_v the_o gospel_n too_o all_o shame_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n the_o poor_a servant_n of_o god_n which_o employ_v themselves_o in_o his_o service_n be_v trouble_v and_o vex_v by_o all_o mean_n then_o if_o we_o gather_v together_o all_o the_o misery_n and_o adversity_n wheretoo_o the_o church_n be_v subject_a and_o consider_v well_o the_o distress_n of_o every_o of_o our_o brethren_n must_v it_o not_o needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v dull_a than_o brut_v beast_n if_o we_o be_v not_o move_v too_o pray_v unto_o god_n yea_o even_o with_o a_o right_a perseverance_n in_o the_o same_o for_o though_o i_o be_v at_o my_o ease_n too_o day_n there_o be_v many_o thousand_o in_o great_a perplexity_n and_o i_o show_v well_o that_o i_o cut_v of_o myself_o as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v from_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n if_o i_o pity_v not_o the_o member_n too_o who_o i_o be_o link_v not_o without_o cause_n therefore_o do_v saint_n paul_n set_v all_o the_o saint_n here_o afore_o we_o when_o be_v intend_v too_o inflame_v we_o the_o better_a too_o a_o right_a dispozed_a mind_n in_o pray_v and_o too_o continue_v throughout_o in_o the_o same_o and_o thereupon_o he_o require_v also_o that_o man_n shall_v pray_v for_o he_o you_o shall_v pray_v for_o i_o also_o say_v he_o that_o god_n give_v i_o boldness_n in_o open_v my_o mouth_n so_o as_o i_o may_v utter_v the_o secret_a of_o the_o gospel_n according_o when_o saint_n paul_n commend_v himself_o too_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o neighbour_n thereby_o he_o show_v well_o in_o what_o humility_n we_o ought_v too_o walk_v for_o he_o do_v not_o counterfeit_v in_o exhort_v the_o ephesian_n too_o such_o pray_v he_o protest_v before_o god_n and_o his_o angel_n that_o he_o have_v need_n of_o it_o but_o now_o let_v we_o compare_v ourselves_o with_o saint_n paul_n what_o man_n be_v of_o such_o abilttie_n that_o he_o can_v forbear_v too_o be_v succour_v by_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o neighbour_n when_o saint_n paul_n exempt_v not_o himself_o from_o it_o now_o then_o let_v every_o man_n in_o his_o pray_n unto_o god_n desire_n too_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o the_o prayer_n that_o be_v make_v throughout_o the_o church_n 18._o both_o general_o and_o particular_o in_o deed_n this_o promise_n shall_v always_o stand_v true_a that_o god_n will_v be_v near_o at_o hand_n too_o all_o such_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o jonas_n fail_v not_o too_o be_v succour_v of_o god_n 2._o though_o he_o be_v in_o the_o whale_n belly_n now_o therefore_o when_o we_o be_v forsake_v of_o man_n when_o we_o be_v as_o good_a as_o dead_a and_o the_o remembrance_n of_o we_o be_v as_o good_a as_o bury_v yet_o will_v not_o god_n cease_v to_o regard_v we_o and_o too_o cast_v his_o eye_n upon_o we_o too_o succour_v we_o according_a too_o this_o say_n that_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n be_v always_o upon_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o 18._o and_o his_o ear_n open_v too_o such_o as_o repair_v unto_o he_o notwithstanding_o too_o the_o intent_n too_o humble_v we_o the_o better_a 16._o our_o lord_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o have_v need_v one_o of_o another_o help_n and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o intercommon_v among_o we_o and_o beside_o this_o there_o be_v also_o another_o reason_n which_o be_v that_o he_o will_v keep_v our_o charity_n occupy_v wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o show_v both_o by_o our_o almesdeed_n and_o by_o our_o counsel_n and_o by_o all_o other_o help_n that_o none_o of_o we_o be_v give_v too_o himself_o nor_o too_o he_o too_o own_o private_a profit_n but_o that_o after_o as_o god_n have_v link_v we_o together_o every_o of_o we_o covet_v too_o succour_v our_o member_n and_o too_o communicate_v together_o in_o our_o prayer_n &_o supplication_n for_o our_o commend_v one_o of_o we_o of_o another_o after_o that_o manner_n unto_o god_n be_v the_o chief_a duty_n of_o charity_n and_o therefore_o it_o cause_v saint_n paul_n too_o desire_v the_o ephesian_n express_o too_o pray_v for_o he_o now_o if_o any_o man_n allege_v that_o that_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o unbelief_n for_o if_o this_o promise_n suffyze_v we_o not_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v obtain_v his_o own_o request_n be_v it_o not_o a_o point_n of_o distrust_n the_o answer_v thereunto_o be_v easy_a for_o whereas_o god_n say_v that_o he_o will_v have_v pity_n upon_o all_o such_o as_o seek_v it_o at_o his_o hand_n he_o mean_v not_o too_o disannul_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o command_v we_o in_o so_o many_o other_o text_n which_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v mindful_a one_o of_o another_o furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o in_o follow_v god_n word_n we_o can_v never_o be_v blame_v of_o misbeleef_n for_o how_o come_v it_o too_o pass_v that_o man_n fall_v to_o misbelief_n but_o by_o pass_v
withdraw_v ourselves_o from_o all_o the_o defilement_n of_o the_o world_n here_o you_o see_v that_o the_o law_n which_o god_n have_v give_v we_o too_o rule_v our_o life_n by_o must_v continue_v still_o for_o that_o be_v not_o abolish_v but_o only_o that_o which_o consist_v in_o tradition_n and_o in_o the_o figure_n that_o serve_v but_o for_o the_o time_n and_o be_v too_o have_v a_o end_n

be_v much_o more_o reason_n that_o the_o christian_a church_n shall_v not_o now_o adays_o be_v burden_v with_o man_n invention_n according_a whereunto_o s._n paul_n kell_v we_o that_o we_o must_v

mercy_n and_o special_o by_o call_v upon_o god_n pure_o and_o after_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n again_o he_o say_v that_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v in_o these_o day_n not_o only_o be_v superfluous_a but_o also_o as_o a_o curtain_n to_o keep_v we_o still_o in_o darkness_n and_o too_o let_v we_o from_o see_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o ought_v too_o do_v in_o the_o mirror_n of_o his_o gospel_n therefore_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o the_o righteousness_n which_o god_n require_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v another_o manner_n of_o one_o than_o that_o which_o the_o papist_n have_v imagine_v for_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o they_o term_v god_n service_n be_v but_o stark_a gewgaw_n yea_o and_o wheretoo_o serve_v they_o all_o but_o

between_o we_o and_o the_o angel_n now_o hereupon_o s._n paul_n add_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v obtain_v a_o name_n that_o be_v too_o say_v a_o majesty_n which_o be_v above_o all_o name_n as_o

be_v mean_v that_o the_o knowledge_n which_o we_o have_v of_o jesus_n christ_n will_v suffice_v we_o for_o the_o heavenly_a life_n now_o it_o shall_v seem_v at_o the_o first_o blush_n that_o there_o

true_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n speak_v thereof_o in_o the_o fifteen_o of_o s._n john_n my_o father_n and_o i_o say_v he_o have_v always_o our_o hand_n at_o work_n there_o he_o

wherewith_o we_o be_v compass_v about_o as_o now_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v abse_z for_o he_o shall_v be_v then_o much_o better_a in_o his_o perfection_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o three_o too_o the_o colossian_n that_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v in_o god_n with_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n

the_o thing_n that_o lie_v as_o yet_o but_o in_o hope_n &_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v gather_v all_o thing_n too_o himself_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v then_o partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n every_o man_n according_a too_o his_o own_o degree_n and_o measure_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o these_o two_o text_n agree_v very_o well_o namely_o that_o god_n have_v give_v christ_n a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n and_o also_o that_o he_o shall_v yield_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o why_o for_o we_o shall_v then_o see_v his_o heavenly_a majesty_n which_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o conceive_v as_o now_o because_o we_o be_v fleshly_a also_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o whereas_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o a_o mortal_a man_n he_o have_v be_v so_o glorify_v in_o his_o humane_a nature_n that_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o be_v god_n of_o oneself_o same_o substance_n with_o his_o father_n this_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v full_o know_v then_o whereas_o now_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a shadow_n of_o it_o furthermore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n be_v exalt_v by_o god_n his_o father_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o his_o advancement_n shall_v serve_v too_o our_o everlasting_a salvation_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o ix_o of_o isaiah_n he_o be_v call_v the_o father_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o also_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o faith_n which_o be_v ground_v in_o he_o be_v in_o

into_o full_a possession_n of_o all_o the_o good_n that_o be_v give_v too_o he_o already_o thus_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n have_v purposely_o make_v express_a mention_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v he_o add_v immediate_o that_o god_n have_v put_v all_o thing_n under_o his_o foot_n and_o make_v he_o head_n of_o the_o church_n above_o all_o thing_n his_o speak_v here_o of_o the_o

here_o too_o bethink_v ourselves_o furthermore_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o be_v short_a witted_a in_o magnify_v god_n grace_n let_v we_o weigh_v well_o this_o word_n which_o s._n paul_n use_v here_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o remembrance_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o may_v forget_v for_o when_o we_o be_v endue_v with_o god_n grace_n and_o it_o have_v please_v he_o too_o give_v we_o some_o good_a

whereby_o s._n paul_n put_v the_o ephesian_n in_o mind_n what_o they_o be_v afore_o be_v that_o although_o god_n have_v put_v away_o the_o thing_n that_o shall_v have_v make_v they_o ashamed_a and_o

as_o god_n ordain_v it_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o jew_n use_v it_o holy_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a warrant_n to_o they_o of_o god_n adoption_n as_o if_o he_o have_v cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o the_o

he_o show_v that_o the_o sacrament_n take_v and_o borrow_v their_o force_n of_o god_n word_n for_o if_o there_o be_v nomore_o but_o the_o bare_a sign_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o great_a

will_v say_v confirm_v that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n join_v here_o the_o common_a weal_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o instrument_n of_o god_n promise_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

and_o that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n now_o hereupon_o saint_n paul_n add_v further_a that_o we_o must_v be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o charity_n this_o word_n charity_n or_o love_n may_v be_v take_v as_o well_o for_o the_o love_n that_o god_n bear_v we_o as_o for_o the_o mutual_a love_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o bear_v one_o towards_o another_o but_o the_o

so_o now_o he_o show_v how_o faith_n import_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v brotherly_a love_v one_o towards_o another_o and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n bring_v we_o always_o to_o that_o point_n insomuch_o that_o when_o there_o be_v any_o speak_n of_o the_o full_a perfection_n of_o good_a life_n faith_n go_v before_o &_o then_o come_v charity_n next_o unto_o it_o for_o the_o end_n that_o we_o

first_o too_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o only_a son_n and_o second_o too_o call_v upon_o he_o too_o settle_v our_o faith_n in_o he_o too_o

whole_o upon_o our_o god_n or_o else_o all_o the_o virtuousness_n which_o we_o seem_v too_o have_v before_o man_n shall_v be_v but_o filth_n and_o dung_n now_o then_o have_v we_o faith_n charity_n must_v be_v match_v with_o it_o and_o we_o must_v live_v even_o and_o upright_o one_o with_o another_o &_o every_o of_o we_o acknowledge_v thus_o i_o be_v not_o create_v for_o myself_o nor_o to_o seek_v my_o own_o private_a benefit_n &_o commodity_n but_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o my_o neighbour_n also_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o abstain_v from_o all_o guile_n wrong_v outrage_n and_o

add_v now_o that_o we_o must_v also_o be_v ground_v in_o charity_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v we_o must_v not_o have_v alone_a some_o fit_n or_o pang_n of_o love_n as_o many_o man_n have_v but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o steadfastness_n and_o even_o hold_v on_o in_o it_o all_o our_o life_n long_o for_o a_o thing_n may_v give_v a_o great_a blaze_n and_o yet_o quail_v anon_o after_o behold_v a_o

all_o the_o earth_n over_o about_o other_o science_n what_o profit_n will_v come_v of_o it_o it_o will_v be_v but_o vanity_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o seek_v any_o thing_n

himself_o protest_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v here_o be_v that_o when_o we_o once_o know_v that_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o benefit_n that_o he_o bring_v we_o namely_o that_o we_o may_v resort_v too_o god_n in_o his_o name_n with_o full_a trust_n we_o shall_v no_o more_o have_v our_o mind_n so_o vex_v with_o unquietness_n but_o we_o shall_v

when_o we_o have_v our_o measure_n let_v we_o consider_v the_o two_o point_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v afore_o 43._o namely_o that_o he_o which_o have_v receive_v the_o large_a measure_n be_v the_o

too_o humble_v we_o and_o afterward_o ●oo_o exalt_v we_o again_o therefore_o we_o must_v on_o the_o one_o side_n confess_v that_o all_o the_o wisdom_n and_o wit_n which_o we_o have_v do_v fail_v we_o

too_o submit_v themselves_o too_o it_o and_o too_o bear_v the_o yoke_n that_o be_v so_o hard_a and_o heavy_a now_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o he_o do_v servant_n wrong_v therein_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v rather_o have_v cry_v out_o against_o the_o common_a abuse_n that_o such_o outrage_n may_v have_v be_v lay_v down_o but_o we_o have_v two_o principle_n to_o remember_v to_o restrain_v we_o

that_o it_o come_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o must_v take_v it_o patient_o the_o other_o be_v that_o the_o gospel_n serve_v not_o too_o change_v the_o common_a policy_n of_o the_o

and_o too_o frame_v themselves_o unto_o his_o word_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o our_o lord_n have_v give_v they_o liberty_n too_o make_v such_o law_n as_o they_o shall_v perceive_v too_o be_v
