that_o thou_o be_v obstinate_a and_o thy_o neck_n be_v a_o iron_n sinew_n and_o thy_o brow_n brass_n and_o lest_o thou_o shall_v say_v my_o idol_n have_v do_v they_o and_o my_o grave_a image_n and_o

of_o be_v convince_v of_o his_o eternal_a power_n and_o godhead_n yet_o be_v they_o so_o vile_a as_o to_o question_v it_o have_v in_o they_o a_o emnitie_n to_o the_o true_a god_n and_o choose_v rather_o to_o worship_v idol_n and_o deny_v the_o eternal_a god_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o forty_o six_o chapter_n of_o isaiah_n and_o therefore_o at_o the_o eight_o and_o nine_o verse_n he_o say_v

whereby_o they_o be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v roman_n the_o first_o and_o the_o twenty_o but_o they_o have_v lose_v reason_n be_v now_o become_v vain_a in_o their_o

frothy_a and_o blasphemous_a discourse_n yet_o they_o be_v become_v fool_n change_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n into_o a_o lie_n and_o the_o apostle_n give_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n have_v thus_o give_v they_o over_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n the_o one_o and_o twenty_o and_o the_o eight_o and_o twenty_o verse_n because_o they_o do_v not_o like_a to_o retain_v god_n in_o their_o knowledge_n and_o because_o that_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god._n the_o like_a reason_n he_o give_v why_o they_o that_o perish_v be_v deceive_v by_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n as_o in_o the_o second_o epistle_n to_o the_o thessalonian_n the_o second_o chapter_n and_o the_o ten_o verse_n because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o now_o though_o atheist_n and_o papist_n deny_v the_o eternal_a god_n and_o observe_v not_o his_o wonderful_a work_n how_o he_o declare_v thing_n long_o before_o they_o come_v to_o pass_v say_v my_o

will_v observe_v this_o for_o say_v the_o psalmist_n in_o the_o hundred_o and_o eleven_o psalm_n and_o the_o second_o and_o three_o verse_n the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v great_a seek_v out_o of_o all_o they_o that_o have_v pleasure_n therein_o his_o work_n be_v honourable_a and_o glorious_a and_o his_o righteousness_n endure_v for_o ever_o he_o have_v make_v his_o wonderful_a work_n to_o be_v remember_v etc._n etc._n the_o lord_n have_v make_v his_o wonderful_a work_n to_o be_v remember_v among_o his_o saint_n though_o other_o remember_v they_o not_o yet_o his_o saint_n have_v pleasure_n in_o they_o and_o therefore_o search_v they_o out_o and_o they_o have_v a_o promise_v make_v to_o they_o that_o in_o the_o observe_v the_o wonderful_a thing_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o shall_v understand_v his_o love_a kindness_n it_o run_v thus_o who_o so_o be_v wise_a and_o will_v observe_v these_o thing_n even_o they_o shall_v understand_v the_o love_a kindness_n of_o the_o lord_n increase_v as_o psalm_n the_o hundred_o and_o three_o and_o the_o forty_o three_o verse_n now_o it_o be_v so_o let_v saint_n diligent_o observe_v the_o ensue_a discourse_n wherein_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o god_n have_v bring_v to_o pass_v the_o thing_n he_o do_v fifteen_o hundred_o year_n ago_o predeclare_v which_o they_o observe_v it_o may_v tend_v much_o to_o the_o strengthen_n of_o their_o faith_n in_o this_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v begin_v and_o be_v go_v on_o to_o avenge_v they_o on_o their_o enemy_n for_o in_o the_o ensue_a discourse_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o as_o jesus_n christ_n do_v long_o since_o reveal_v to_o john_n how_o that_o after_o the_o mystical_a babylonian_n have_v persecute_v his_o saint_n a_o long_a time_n he_o will_v raise_v up_o his_o saint_n out_o of_o their_o persecute_a condition_n and_o bring_v down_o those_o their_o babylonian_a enemy_n so_o he_o have_v already_o begin_v to_o do_v this_o thing_n even_o to_o raise_v up_o his_o saint_n and_o to_o bring_v down_o their_o enemy_n and_o that_o punctual_o according_a to_o what_o he_o do_v reveal_v to_o john_n now_o i_o know_v there_o have_v be_v observe_v by_o many_o saint_n many_o thing_n that_o god_n reveal_v to_o john_n which_o he_o have_v bring_v to_o pass_v many_o of_o which_o observation_n be_v already_o in_o print_n but_o that_o which_o i_o chief_o aim_v at_o in_o this_o discourse_n be_v that_o which_o be_v not_o yet_o print_v by_o any_o other_o and_o whether_o any_o other_o have_v yet_o observe_v it_o i_o know_v not_o but_o they_o be_v passage_n so_o eminent_o worthy_a to_o be_v observe_v in_o this_o present_a time_n because_o they_o give_v the_o saint_n such_o ground_n of_o encouragement_n and_o consolation_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o happy_a success_n that_o shall_v be_v of_o the_o very_a present_a affair_n of_o this_o kingdom_n how_o knotty_a and_o difficult_a so_o ever_o for_o the_o present_a or_o for_o sometime_o yet_o they_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v as_o that_o in_o love_n to_o all_o saint_n i_o can_v not_o but_o communicate_v they_o to_o they_o in_o this_o way_n but_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n which_o it_o may_v be_v may_v cause_v some_o to_o retain_v some_o unbelieved_a and_o doubtful_a thought_n concern_v the_o happy_a success_n of_o present_a thing_n although_o it_o be_v make_v clear_a in_o the_o follow_a discourse_n that_o the_o time_n of_o saint_n be_v clothe_v
instrument_n in_o reveal_v and_o discover_v his_o mind_n to_o his_o people_n and_o build_v up_o of_o his_o saint_n may_v be_v to_o maintain_v a_o communion_n among_o saint_n for_o if_o god_n shall_v reveal_v himself_o to_o all_o alike_o then_o will_v not_o his_o people_n have_v such_o communion_n one_o with_o another_o as_o they_o have_v to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v partake_v one_o of_o another_o gift_n and_o therefore_o do_v it_o please_v the_o lord_n to_o make_v use_n of_o instrument_n whereas_o if_o it_o please_v he_o he_o can_v have_v effect_v all_o thing_n immediate_o without_o mean_n or_o instrument_n and_o since_o it_o be_v so_o then_o first_o it_o reprehend_v those_o that_o have_v a_o low_a esteem_n of_o instrument_n and_o sleight_n and_o undervalue_v mean_n upon_o this_o ground_n that_o god_n can_v work_v without_o instrument_n and_o without_o mean_n but_o let_v such_o know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o make_v use_n of_o instrument_n and_o in_o slight_v instrument_n they_o contradict_v his_o will_n and_o as_o they_o that_o sleight_v the_o king_n officer_n do_v sleight_n the_o king_n so_o they_o in_o slight_v the_o instrument_n and_o mean_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o work_v by_o do_v sleight_n god_n himself_o and_o they_o do_v as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v endeavour_v to_o break_v the_o communion_n of_o saint_n and_o sure_o what_o ever_o the_o pretence_n of_o such_o person_n be_v that_o do_v neglect_v mean_n and_o sleight_v instrument_n this_o come_v not_o from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o they_o for_o the_o spirit_n teach_v not_o to_o undervalue_v any_o mean_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o be_v use_v though_o it_o be_v true_a the_o spirit_n teach_v we_o not_o to_o idolise_v mean_n nor_o to_o tie_v god_n to_o work_v only_o by_o mean_n but_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n can_v and_o sometime_o do_v work_n without_o mean_n and_o instrument_n though_o he_o do_v usual_o work_v by_o mean_n and_o instrument_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v as_o great_a a_o evil_n on_o the_o one_o side_n to_o reject_v the_o instrument_n or_o mean_n that_o god_n use_v to_o work_v by_o because_o he_o have_v not_o absolute_o tie_v himself_o to_o they_o as_o on_o the_o other_o side_n to_o idolise_v mean_n or_o instrument_n because_o god_n do_v usual_o work_v by_o they_o therefore_o in_o the_o second_o place_n saint_n be_v here_o exhort_v to_o have_v a_o high_a esteem_n of_o instrument_n as_o be_v of_o god_n appointment_n by_o who_o he_o will_v reveal_v himself_o to_o his_o people_n and_o quicken_v and_o comfort_n and_o build_v they_o up_o upon_o the_o true_a foundation_n since_o the_o lord_n will_v make_v use_n of_o instrument_n o_o saint_n do_v not_o you_o sleight_v they_o lest_o you_o sleight_v god_n himself_o but_o esteem_v they_o very_o high_o in_o love_n for_o their_o work_n sake_n it_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o the_o apostle_n 1_o thes_n 5._o 12_o 13._o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o we_o beseech_v you_o brethren_n to_o know_v they_o which_o labour_n among_o you_o and_o be_v over_o you_o in_o the_o lord_n and_o admonish_v you_o and_o to_o esteem_v they_o very_o high_o in_o love_n for_o their_o work_n sake_n the_o apostle_n know_v very_o well_o that_o god_n can_v if_o he_o have_v please_v have_v build_v up_o his_o people_n without_o employ_v some_o to_o labour_n among_o they_o in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n and_o without_o the_o admonition_n of_o man_n but_o these_o be_v instrument_n and_o mean_n of_o god_n appointment_n he_o therefore_o press_v the_o saint_n to_o esteem_v very_o high_o of_o those_o instrument_n for_o that_o work_v sake_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v they_o unto_o for_o though_o paul_n and_o apollo_n and_o cephas_n can_v do_v nothing_o of_o themselves_o yet_o they_o be_v to_o be_v high_o esteem_v as_o be_v instrument_n in_o god_n hand_n by_o which_o god_n will_v work_v and_o so_o all_o the_o mean_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v for_o his_o people_n to_o make_v use_n of_o in_o which_o he_o will_v be_v find_v of_o they_o and_o in_o which_o he_o will_v have_v communion_n with_o they_o let_v they_o prize_n and_o embrace_v and_o make_v use_n of_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o the_o use_n of_o they_o who_o will_v be_v find_v of_o they_o at_o last_o and_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o have_v not_o seek_v he_o in_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n in_o vain_a though_o for_o a_o time_n he_o seem_v to_o be_v silent_a towards_o they_o yet_o at_o last_o he_o that_o shall_v come_v will_v come_v an_o i_o will_v not_o tarry_v it_o be_v unquestionable_o the_o policy_n of_o satan_n to_o take_v off_o saint_n from_o use_v mean_n that_o they_o may_v be_v deprive_v of_o that_o comfort_n and_o benefit_n which_o otherwise_o they_o may_v obtain_v in_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n therefore_o let_v all_o saint_n beware_v of_o such_o delusion_n whereby_o they_o be_v draw_v to_o dishonour_n god_n in_o slight_v the_o instrument_n and_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v appoint_v and_o let_v they_o be_v exhort_v to_o embrace_v mean_n and_o make_v diligent_a use_n of_o they_o for_o they_o be_v bless_v that_o so_o do_v as_o will_v appear_v in_o the_o handle_n of_o the_o five_o particular_a but_o so_o much_o for_o this_o three_o particular_a the_o instrument_n of_o the_o divulgation_n of_o this_o book_n the_o four_o particular_a be_v the_o faithfulness_n of_o those_o instrument_n in_o the_o divulgation_n of_o this_o book_n it_o be_v express_v in_o these_o word_n who_o bare_a record_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n and_o of_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o see_v we_o see_v that_o as_o the_o angel_n signify_v it_o to_o john_n so_o john_n do_v not_o fail_v in_o record_v any_o thing_n of_o it_o but_o he_o bare_a record_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o see_v whence_o the_o observation_n be_v this_o observe_v 4._o that_o when_o god_n set_v instrument_n about_o a_o work_n which_o he_o will_v have_v do_v they_o must_v and_o they_o shall_v effect_v it_o jesus_n christ_n will_v have_v his_o secret_n declare_v to_o his_o servant_n and_o he_o imploi_v john_n about_o this_o work_n and_o john_n

this_o truth_n be_v further_o confirm_v by_o two_o pertinent_a scripture_n which_o we_o have_v to_o this_o effect_n one_o be_v amos_n 3._o 8._o the_o lion_n have_v roar_v who_o will_v not_o fear_v the_o lord_n god_n have_v speak_v who_o can_v but_o prophesy_v the_o other_o be_v act_v 4._o 20._o for_o we_o can_v but_o speak_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v see_v and_o hear_v in_o both_o these_o place_n it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o instrument_n to_o be_v silent_a nor_o to_o sit_v still_o when_o god_n have_v speak_v to_o they_o and_o give_v they_o commission_n to_o do_v his_o work_n first_o be_v it_o so_o that_o when_o god_n set_v instrument_n about_o a_o work_n which_o he_o will_v have_v do_v that_o they_o must_v and_o shall_v effect_v it_o then_o this_o inform_v we_o of_o the_o reason_n why_o saint_n fear_v not_o persecution_n nor_o imprisonment_n nor_o death_n but_o choose_v rather_o to_o suffer_v they_o all_o then_o to_o conceal_v the_o truth_n that_o be_v discover_v to_o they_o or_o to_o disert_fw-la the_o work_n they_o be_v call_v to_o for_o god_n have_v stir_v up_o their_o spirit_n and_o set_v they_o about_o this_o work_n they_o can_v be_v silent_a and_o sit_v still_o but_o shall_v go_v on_o in_o despite_n of_o all_o opposition_n to_o accomplish_v the_o work_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v they_o to_o do_v thus_o do_v luther_n and_o thus_o have_v many_o other_o saint_n do_v and_o many_o shall_v do_v for_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v they_o can_v but_o prophesy_v speak_v the_o thing_n they_o have_v see_v and_o hear_v for_o their_o light_n be_v not_o give_v they_o to_o hide_v it_o under_o a_o bushel_n but_o their_o love_n to_o christ_n constrain_v they_o to_o hold_v it_o forth_o and_o the_o strength_n of_o christ_n
