like_o peter_n if_o he_o see_v one_o love_n one_o virtue_n he_o make_v he_o love_v another_o virtue_n if_o he_o see_v one_o hate_n one_o vice_n he_o make_v he_o hate_v another_o vice_n if_o he_o see_v

thy_o servant_n hear_v 3._o than_o he_o take_v he_o up_o to_o the_o mount_n like_o moses_n and_o open_v his_o heart_n unto_o he_o teach_v he_o a_o way_n to_o make_v use_n of_o all_o that_o he_o see_v and_o of_o all_o that_o he_o hear_v and_o of_o all_o that_o he_o read_v and_o of_o all_o that_o he_o feel_v thus_o when_o god_n have_v strain_a and_o fine_v he_o he_o be_v apt_a to_o every_o good_a

if_o he_o see_v one_o meditate_v he_o have_v a_o zeal_n to_o meditate_v too_o if_o he_o see_v one_o sorrow_v he_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o sorrow_n too_o like_o the_o disciple_n which_o when_o they_o

be_v never_o well_o but_o when_o he_o be_v walk_v with_o god_n like_o enoch_n or_o when_o christ_n be_v speak_v to_o he_o or_o when_o he_o be_v speak_v to_o christ_n for_o when_o god_n meet_v with_o his_o child_n like_o a_o nurse_n he_o empti_v himself_o of_o his_o milk_n according_a to_o this_o text_n which_o we_o now_o handle_v to_o he_o which_o have_v shall_v be_v give_v thus_o when_o you_o

have_v a_o little_a knowledge_n to_o judge_v and_o speak_v of_o god_n worde_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o of_o doctrine_n then_o thou_o shall_v ascend_v to_o faith_n which_o will_v bring_v thou_o unto_o peace_n of_o conscience_n then_o thou_o shall_v meet_v with_o good_a book_n and_o god_n will_v send_v thou_o teacher_n to_o instruct_v thou_o and_o encourage_v thou_o like_o the_o angel_n which_o come_v to_o christ_n when_o he_o hunger_v thus_o a_o traveller_n pass_v from_o town_n unto_o town_n until_o he_o come_v to_o his_o inn_n so_o a_o christian_n pass_v from_o virtue_n to_o virtue_n

servant_n take_v his_o talon_n from_o he_o here_o be_v one_o like_o jaacob_n who_o god_n love_v to_o he_o he_o say_v shall_v be_v give_v here_o be_v another_o like_a esau_n who_o god_n hate_v from_o he_o he_o say_v shall_v be_v take_v so_o one_o may_v say_v like_o job_n the_o lord_n have_v give_v and_o the_o other_o may_v say_v like_o job_n the_o lord_n have_v take_v but_o from_o who_o do_v he_o

they_o which_o want_n joseph_n marvel_v to_o see_v jaacob_n lay_v his_o left_a hand_n upon_o manasses_n and_o his_o right_a hand_n upon_o ephraim_n as_o though_o the_o young_a shall_v be_v more_o

that_o he_o which_o command_v we_o to_o give_v unto_o they_o which_o want_n shall_v take_v from_o they_o which_o want_n and_o give_v to_o they_o which_o have_v isaac_n will_v not_o have_v bless_v

shall_v have_v more_o than_o manasseth_n as_o god_n love_v not_o as_o man_n love_v so_o he_o give_v not_o as_o man_n give_v why_o shall_v abraham_n have_v three_o angel_n and_o let_v but_o two_o and_o balaam_n but_o one_o and_o balaac_n none_o why_o shall_v not_o philip_n go_v up_o the_o mount_n as_o well_o as_o james_n why_o shall_v not_o aaron_n behold_v god_n as_o well_o as_o moses_n why_o shall_v not_o moses_n go_v to_o chanaan_n as_o well_o as_o caleb_n according_a to_o our_o love_n be_v god_n love_n and_o according_a to_o our_o hatred_n be_v god_n hatred_n reuben_n shall_v have_v have_v as_o good_a a_o blessing_n as_o judah_n but_o when_o jaacob_n bless_v he_o genesis_n the_o 35._o chapter_n &_o 22._o verse_n he_o remember_v his_o sin_n with_o bilhah_n and_o therefore_o curb_v his_o blessing_n for_o when_o he_o bless_v he_o he_o say_v 4._o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v excellent_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v reuben_n thou_o shall_v have_v some_o thing_n but_o thou_o shall_v not_o have_v so_o much_o as_o thou_o shall_v have_v because_o of_o thy_o uncleanness_n with_o bilhah_n so_o moses_n shall_v have_v go_v to_o canaan_n as_o well_o as_o caleb_n but_o god_n remember_v his_o murmur_a at_o the_o water_n of_o bitterness_n and_o when_o he_o desire_v to_o go_v unto_o it_o god_n will_v not_o hear_v he_o but_o let_v he_o see_v it_o from_o a_o hill_n and_o so_o he_o die_v so_o the_o three_o servant_n shall_v have_v receive_v as_o many_o talent_n as_o his_o fellow_n but_o the_o lord_n remember_v how_o he_o hide_v the_o talon_n which_o he_o have_v and_o therefore_o will_v give_v he_o no_o more_o lest_o he_o shall_v hide_v they_o too_o so_o we_o shall_v have_v more_o understanding_n more_o judgement_n and_o more_o knowledge_n but_o god_n see_v what_o we_o do_v with_o this_o and_o therefore_o stay_v his_o hand_n lest_o we_o shall_v abuse_v any_o more_o this_o be_v saint_n johns_n meaning_n when_o he_o say_v god_n give_v grace_n for_o grace_n 16._o that_o be_v where_o he_o find_v one_o grace_n there_o he_o give_v another_o this_o be_v saint_n paul_n meaning_n rom._n 1._o where_o he_o say_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o faith_n to_o faith_n signify_v that_o they_o which_o have_v faith_n shall_v have_v more_o faith_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o fearful_a sign_n that_o we_o have_v no_o faith_n nor_o grace_n if_o god_n do_v not_o increase_v our_o faith_n and_o his_o grace_n in_o we_o for_o to_o he_o which_o have_v shall_v be_v give_v therefore_o if_o we_o have_v faith_n we_o shall_v have_v love_n if_o we_o have_v love_n we_o shall_v have_v knowledge_n if_o we_o have_v knowledge_n we_o shall_v have_v zeal_n if_o we_o have_v zeal_n we_o shall_v have_v holiness_n as_o he_o which_o have_v break_v one_o commandment_n be_v make_v guilty_a of_o all_o so_o he_o which_o have_v one_o virtue_n be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o it_o be_v say_v so_o long_o as_o jehoiada_n live_v 24._o joash_n prosper_v and_o do_v well_o because_o jehoiada_n instruct_v &_o guide_v he_o but_o when_o jehoiada_n die_v joash_n goodness_n die_v with_o he_o and_o he_o be_v never_o like_o himself_o after_o but_o turn_v like_o his_o father_n so_o there_o be_v a_o seed_n in_o the_o heart_n which_o while_o it_o live_v and_o be_v foster_v we_o sprout_v and_o prosper_v as_o joash_n do_v but_o when_o that_o seed_n die_v for_o want_v of_o cherish_v than_o we_o begin_v to_o droop_v and_o fade_v and_o decay_v again_o as_o loash_fw-mi do_v if_o one_o virtue_n be_v offend_v she_o lure_v all_o her_o fellow_n from_o we_o as_o many_o of_o ishbosheths_n friend_n shrink_v with_o abner_n david_n set_v forth_o the_o godly_a man_n like_o a_o tree_n plant_v by_o the_o water_n side_n 3._o which_o sprowt_v and_o grwo_v and_o bring_v forth_o

gain_v against_o all_o they_o in_o the_o verse_n before_o which_o hold_v that_o gain_n be_v godliness_n these_o two_o opinion_n be_v very_o contrary_a and_o here_o be_v many_o against_o one_o a_o

have_v take_v the_o former_a verse_n which_o say_v that_o gain_n be_v godliness_n than_o you_o shall_v have_v have_v matter_n and_o example_n enough_o the_o merchant_n and_o mercer_n and_o lawyer_n and_o landlord_n and_o patron_n and_o all_o will_v come_v in_o and_o speak_v for_o gain_v 28_o as_o the_o ephesian_n cry_v for_o diana_n but_o if_o you_o will_v be_v cross_a to_o all_o and_o preach_v godliness_n be_v gain_v to_o they_o which_o account_n gain_v godliness_n man_n will_v think_v of_o you_o as_o festus_n do_v that_o you_o speak_v you_o know_v not_o what_o 24_o these_o lesson_n be_v for_o paul_n himself_o as_o christ_n say_v 11_o all_o do_v not_o receive_v this_o word_n so_o all_o do_v not_o count_v this_o gain_n but_o loss_n we_o count_v he_o rich_a which_o have_v his_o barn_n full_a like_o the_o churl_n his_o coffer_n full_a like_o the_o glutton_n his_o table_n full_a like_o belshazzar_n his_o stable_n full_a like_o solomon_n his_o ground_n full_a like_o job_n his_o purse_n full_a like_o croesus_n you_o speak_v against_o your_o master_n for_o christ_n send_v word_n unto_o john_n that_o the_o poor_a receive_v the_o gospel_n as_o though_o the_o godly_a be_v of_o the_o poor_a sort_n and_o david_n call_v the_o wicked_a rich_a 12._o they_o prosper_v and_o flourish_v say_v he_o their_o seed_n blast_v not_o their_o cow_n cast_v not_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v not_o as_o you_o take_v it_o paul_n that_o godliness_n do_v make_v man_n rich_a for_o this_o i_o have_v observe_v in_o my_o time_n that_o the_o wicked_a be_v the_o wealthy_a and_o good_a lazarus_n be_v the_o poor_a man_n and_o wicked_a dives_fw-la be_v the_o rich_a man_n again_o we_o read_v that_o the_o officer_n be_v ask_v which_o of_o the_o pharisy_n or_o of_o the_o ruler_n do_v follow_v christ_n yet_o these_o be_v count_v rich_a man_n though_o they_o have_v no_o godliness_n and_o if_o we_o shall_v examine_v your_o own_o self_n it_o seem_v you_o be_v no_o great_a rich_a man_n for_o all_o your_o godliness_n when_o you_o do_v work_v with_o your_o hand_n for_o your_o live_n therefore_o if_o godliness_n be_v such_o gain_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o your_o share_n be_v no_o better_o so_o they_o which_o be_v like_o nicodemus_n when_o christ_n say_v that_o they_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o 4._o think_v that_o he_o can_v have_v no_o other_o meaning_n but_o that_o they_o must_v return_v again_o into_o their_o mother_n womb_n 6._o and_o when_o he_o call_v himself_o bread_n that_o he_o must_v needs_o mean_v such_o bread_n as_o they_o dine_v with_o as_o the_o jew_n hear_v the_o prophet_n speak_v so_o often_o of_o christ_n kingdom_n 20_o and_o call_v he_o a_o king_n look_v for_o a_o temporal_a king_n that_o shall_v bring_v they_o peace_n and_o joy_n and_o glory_n and_o make_v they_o like_o king_n themselves_o so_o the_o carnal_a ear_n when_o they_o hear_v of_o a_o kingdom_n &_o treasure_n and_o riches_n straight_o their_o mind_n run_v upon_o earthly_a and_o worldly_a and_o transitory_a thing_n such_o as_o they_o love_v to_o who_o paul_n answer_v as_o christ_n answer_v his_o disciple_n i_o have_v another_o meat_n which_o you_o know_v not_o of_o 3._o so_o there_o be_v other_o riches_n which_o you_o know_v not_o of_o i_o say_v no●_n that_o godliness_n be_v earthly_a or_o worldly_a or_o transitory_a gain_n but_o great_a gain_n he_o will_v not_o only_o prove_v godliness_n to_o be_v gain_n but_o great_a gain_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v more_o gainful_a than_o your_o ware_n and_o rent_n and_o fine_n and_o interest_n as_o though_o he_o will_v make_v the_o lawyer_n and_o merchant_n and_o mercer_n and_o draper_n and_o patron_n and_o landlord_n and_o all_o the_o man_n of_o riches_n believe_v that_o godliness_n will_v make_v they_o rich_a far_o soon_o than_o covetousness_n i_o fear_v this_o say_n may_v be_v renew_v if_o a_o man_n tell_v you_o 5._o you_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o nay_o if_o god_n tell_v you_o yet_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o as_o the_o lord_n look_v down_o upon_o earth_n to_o see_v if_o any_o do_v regard_v he_o 2._o and_o say_v there_o be_v not_o one_o so_o this_o sentence_n may_v go_v from_o court_n to_o

mean_v riches_n and_o honour_n &_o pleasure_n which_o be_v not_o good_a but_o when_o he_o come_v to_o goodness_n itself_o he_o leave_v out_o many_o &_o pray_v in_o his_o own_o person_n lord_n lift_v up_o the_o light_n of_o thy_o countenance_n upon_o we_o as_o though_o none_o will_v join_v with_o he_o 19_o yet_o wisdom_n be_v justify_v of_o she_o own_o child_n and_o the_o godly_a count_n godliness_n gain_v to_o make_v we_o love_v godliness_n he_o call_v it_o by_o the_o name_n of_o that_o we_o love_v most_o that_o be_v gain_n 51_o as_o the_o father_n call_v his_o son_n which_o he_o

command_v man_n to_o be_v godly_a only_o because_o it_o make_v for_o his_o glory_n but_o because_o godliness_n be_v profitable_a to_o us._n for_o godliness_n be_v not_o call_v gain_n 8._o in_o

the_o health_n of_o our_o soul_n so_o it_o be_v not_o call_v a_o kingdom_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o 33._o because_o we_o be_v entitle_v to_o the_o kingdom_n by_o this_o

call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o man_n count_v best_a to_o show_v that_o the_o godly_a be_v as_o well_o as_o merry_a as_o content_v with_o their_o love_n towards_o god_n and_o god_n love_n towards_o they_o as_o other_o be_v with_o health_n and_o wealth_n and_o pleasure_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o godly_a 36._o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v his_o

riches_n be_v cast_v to_o they_o they_o know_v not_o how_o but_o as_o if_o god_n have_v say_v be_v rich_a and_o they_o be_v rich_a straight_o for_o all_o good_a thing_n be_v create_v for_o the_o
