before_o he_o and_o in_o his_o sight_n here_o the_o apostle_n brynk_v these_o philippian_n to_o his_o love_n first_o in_o that_o he_o do_v gyve_v god_n thanks_n for_o they_o that_o they_o have_v receyve_v the_o gospel_n and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o eternal_a health_n declare_v by_o the_o gospel_n to_o they_o second_o he_o get_v their_o love_n in_o that_o he_o pray_v for_o they_o always_o in_o his_o prayer_n to_o god_n desyre_v and_o wyssh_v they_o good_a and_o godly_a thing_n as_o mercy_n peace_n fovour_n and_o love_n with_o god_n the_o father_n and_o such_o like_a three_o they_o culde_v not_o but_o love_v he_o which_o not_o only_o in_o wealth_n and_o prosperyte_n do_v remember_v they_o wysshe_v they_o good_a and_o pray_v for_o they_o but_o also_o do_v remember_v they_o in_o his_o affliction_n and_o in_o preson_z for_o the_o gospel_n sake_n preach_v to_o the_o gentyl_n and_o write_v unto_o they_o so_o comfortable_a and_o also_o profitable_a a_o epistle_n also_o here_o he_o remember_v his_o affliction_n which_o he_o call_v the_o defence_n &_o confyrmation_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o rather_o to_o be_v love_v and_o wyssh_v for_o then_o to_o be_v hate_v of_o any_o christiane_n so_o the_o apostle_n call_v his_o affliction_n for_o the_o gospel_n the_o defence_n of_o the_o gospel_n 2._o timo._n 4._o in_o my_o first_o defence_n no_o man_n be_v present_a with_o i_o i_o pray_v god_n it_o be_v not_o impute_v to_o they_o of_o god_n but_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v ●uer_o present_a with_o i_o and_o do_v strength_n i_o that_o by_o i_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v preach_v and_o the_o gentyle_n here_o the_o gospel_n and_o i_o be_v delyver_v from_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lion_n so_o he_o call_v ne●o_o the_o emperor_n a_o lion_n for_o his_o ●ruelnes_n so_o paul_n use_v himself_o in_o preson_z and_o defend_v the_o gospel_n that_o the_o gospel_n be_v stout_o defend_v and_o also_o great_o increase_v by_o his_o imprisonment_n as_o here_o after_o be_v show_v /_o so_o afflyctions_n imprysonment_n persecution_n and_o death_n of_o faithful_a preacher_n be_v not_o shameful_a worthy_a rebuke_n nor_o be_v hynderaunce_n to_o the_o gospel_n but_o be_v laudable_a defend_v promote_v and_o increase_v it_o and_o therefore_o faithful_a minister_n of_o god_n word_n have_v no_o cause_n to_o be_v sorry_a in_o their_o trybulation_n for_o the_o gospel_n sake_n but_o rather_o to_o rejoice_v and_o be_v glade_n for_o such_o be_v bless_v of_o god_n that_o suffer_v for_o christ_n and_o for_o his_o word_n and_o shall_v be_v partaker_n of_o glory_n with_o christe_n and_o so_o shall_v they_o all_o be_v that_o suffer_v with_o christe_n roma_fw-it 8._o wherefore_o he_o say_v you_o philippian_n as_o you_o be_v partaker_n of_o my_o affliction_n and_o so_o with_o i_o suffer_v with_o christe_n /_o if_o you_o continue_v with_o i_o in_o my_o affliction_n you_o shall_v be_v partaker_n of_o the_o grace_n glory_n and_o everla_a life_n with_o i_o which_o thing_n i_o

for_o god_n be_v my_o record_n how_o i_o long_o after_o you_o all_o even_o from_o the_o very_a herte_fw-fr rote_n in_o jesu_n christe_n the_o apostle_n bring_v in_o god_n to_o wytnes_n which_o know_v all_o thing_n and_o the_o secret_n of_o man_n heart_n for_o god_n be_v only_o the_o searcher_n of_o the_o heart_n that_o he_o speak_v these_o word_n of_o no_o carnal_a affection_n or_o for_o any_o lucre_n sake_n but_o for_o the_o pure_a love_n he_o have_v towards_o they_o &_o that_o he_o love_v they_o for_o no_o other_o cause_n but_o that_o he_o do_v see_v they_o lover_n of_o christe_n and_o of_o his_o holy_a word_n and_o they_o such_o as_o declare_v by_o their_o lyve_v that_o they_o love_v god_n have_v receyve_v his_o word_n and_o be_v doer_n of_o it_o and_o that_o they_o be_v constante_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o worthy_a praise_n here_o we_o may_v learn_v of_o paul_n that_o it_o be_v lauful_a for_o christe_n man_n sometime_o to_o bring_v in_o god_n for_o wytnes_n as_o
