and_o pursue_v he_o for_o his_o life_n with_o open_a violence_n and_o this_o must_v other_o man_n expect_v as_o well_o as_o david_n if_o they_o be_v man_n of_o knowledge_n and_o walk_v wise_o and_o be_v like_a to_o be_v of_o use_n either_o in_o church_n or_o commonwealth_n those_o that_o be_v not_o sound_v at_o the_o core_n will_v endeavour_v to_o work_v they_o sorrow_n if_o this_o man_n say_v they_o know_v the_o people_n right_a so_o well_o and_o the_o magistrate_n duty_n so_o well_o and_o begin_v to_o talk_v thus_o he_o will_v soon_o get_v the_o power_n out_o of_o our_o hand_n down_o with_o he_o and_o so_o likewise_o if_o a_o man_n be_v able_a to_o speak_v of_o god_n or_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n to_o the_o comfort_n and_o edification_n of_o other_o a_o bad_a ministry_n will_v soon_o be_v devise_v something_o to_o work_v this_o man_n grief_n oh_o say_v they_o if_o this_o man_n get_v into_o credit_n with_o the_o people_n we_o shall_v soon_o grow_v into_o contempt_n therefore_o let_v we_o remove_v he_o further_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a and_o yet_o although_o this_o and_o much_o more_o than_o this_o be_v true_a knowledge_n though_o it_o be_v attend_v with_o

contempt_n upon_o knowledge_n therefore_o i_o must_v take_v a_o little_a time_n to_o open_v this_o text_n unto_o you_o i_o therefore_o entreat_v you_o to_o look_v into_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o 7_o chapter_n and_o there_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o corinth_n write_v a_o epistle_n or_o letter_n to_o paul_n for_o satisfaction_n in_o some_o case_n of_o conscience_n among_o other_o this_o be_v one_o that_o some_o of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n go_v to_o the_o idol_n temple_n &_o together_o with_o the_o idolater_n do_v eat_v of_o the_o the_o meat_n sacrifice_v to_o idol_n to_o the_o offence_n of_o some_o and_o seandal_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o 8_o chapter_n lay_v down_o their_o argument_n which_o they_o make_v use_v of_o for_o the_o defence_n of_o this_o practice_n and_o there_o in_o that_o place_n he_o answer_v they_o first_o upon_o their_o own_o ground_n that_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v they_o that_o indeed_o they_o do_v proceed_v upon_o ground_n of_o knowledge_n as_o it_o be_v suppose_v by_o they_o they_o do_v to_o eat_v of_o that_o meat_n yet_o there_o practice_n must_v needs_o be_v evil_a the_o unbelieved_a corinth_n still_o be_v harden_v by_o this_o mean_n in_o their_o old_a sinful_a way_n of_o eat_v it_o to_o the_o defile_n of_o their_o conscience_n and_o the_o weak_a brethren_n likewise_o will_v be_v draw_v upon_o doubtful_a ground_n to_o do_v it_o to_o the_o wound_n of_o their_o conscience_n and_o this_o paul_n tell_v they_o can_v not_o stand_v with_o charity_n and_o give_v they_o to_o understand_v that_o a_o knowledge_n separate_v from_o charity_n or_o that_o act_v in_o opposition_n to_o charity_n will_v prove_v of_o no_o better_a use_n but_o to_o puff_n up_o the_o heart_n of_o he_o in_o who_o it_o be_v for_o when_o man_n will_v imply_v their_o part_n to_o outwit_n the_o weak_a and_o bring_v crafty_a argument_n to_o defend_v sinful_a action_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o such_o a_o knowledge_n as_o this_o tend_v to_o swell_v and_o puff_n up_o the_o heart_n of_o he_o that_o thus_o abuse_v his_o wit_n now_o although_o the_o corinth_n do_v plead_v ground_n of_o knowledge_n for_o their_o practice_n and_o the_o apostle_n there_o give_v it_o the_o same_o name_n yet_o you_o may_v see_v by_o what_o follow_v in_o the_o 9_o &_o 10_o chapter_n that_o he_o do_v not_o account_v their_o practice_n their_o light_n and_o their_o knowledge_n but_o their_o sin_n and_o their_o error_n for_o say_v he_o in_o the_o 10_o chap._n flee_v from_o idolatry_n and_o if_o it_o be_v idolatry_n it_o can_v not_o be_v knowledge_n and_o there_o the_o apostle_n bring_v clear_a instance_n to_o prove_v it_o so_o one_o from_o the_o lord_n supper_n there_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o they_o that_o eat_v and_o drink_v that_o together_o be_v one_o communion_n one_o bread_n and_o that_o whosoever_o eat_v of_o israel_n sacrifice_n be_v partaker_n of_o their_o altar_n and_o tell_v they_o it_o be_v the_o table_n of_o devil_n that_o they_o eat_v of_o and_o that_o they_o can_v not_o eat_v of_o it_o and_o of_o the_o lord_n table_n both_o bid_v they_o not_o to_o provoke_v the_o lord_n ask_v they_o if_o they_o be_v strong_a than_o he_o so_o that_o whosoever_o mind_v these_o argument_n and_o consider_v wherefore_o they_o be_v bring_v will_v see_v that_o here_o be_v nothing_o against_o knowledge_n but_o against_o a_o proud_a conceit_n of_o it_o for_o indeed_o the_o more_o any_o man_n know_v of_o god_n the_o humble_a he_o will_v be_v and_o when_o you_o see_v any_o man_n proud_a and_o puff_v up_o with_o his_o knowledge_n you_o may_v be_v sure_a he_o be_v no_o more_o indeed_o &_o intruth_o but_o a_o conceit_a fool_n therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o take_v
