principal_o follow_v three_o observe_v from_o these_o word_n but_o a_o few_o name_n that_o god_n take_v particular_a note_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o zealous_a christian_n by_o name_n and_o one_o of_o they_o be_v better_o than_o a_o hundred_o drowsy_a christian_n he_o know_v they_o by_o name_n 4_o as_o he_o do_v noah_n and_o lot_n before_o the_o destroyer_n go_v the_o lord_n cause_v they_o all_o to_o be_v mark_v on_o the_o forehead_n in_o jerusalem_n that_o mourn_v for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o time_n now_o good_a people_n labour_n to_o be_v upright_o in_o heart_n and_o though_o thou_o be_v never_o so_o poor_a yet_o if_o thou_o be_v godly_a the_o lord_n sure_o have_v a_o special_a care_n of_o thou_o and_o he_o will_v in_o the_o end_n take_v thou_o unto_o himself_o therefore_o comfort_n thyself_o in_o this_o that_o god_n and_o his_o holy_a angel_n do_v love_n and_o respect_v thou_o what_o though_o the_o world_n and_o the_o profane_a sort_n hate_v thou_o scoff_n and_o

a_o velvet_n coat_n yet_o they_o be_v but_o as_o the_o scullion_n and_o in_o base_a account_n before_o god_n that_o have_v keep_v their_o garment_n from_o defile_v etc._n etc._n in_o this_o the_o lord_n commend_v these_o few_o godly_a one_o in_o sardis_n namely_o for_o that_o they_o have_v not_o defile_v their_o garment_n which_o indeed_o be_v a_o borrow_a speech_n for_o here_o be_v mean_v that_o either_o they_o have_v not_o spot_v their_o soul_n with_o contagious_a sin_n or_o else_o stain_v and_o blot_v their_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o a_o ungodly_a conversation_n and_o of_o this_o thing_n also_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v very_o wary_a and_o careful_a to_o bemer_a or_o pollute_v of_o our_o garment_n we_o know_v we_o be_v to_o blame_v young_a child_n if_o they_o defile_v their_o new_a clothes_n let_v not_o we_o then_o which_o profess_v the_o gospel_n and_o thereby_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n let_v we_o not_o i_o say_v stain_n and_o blot_v our_o holy_a profession_n by_o a_o wicked_a conversation_n but_o alack_o alack_o there_o be_v many_o who_o though_o they_o have_v some_o goodness_n in_o they_o and_o have_v receive_v some_o grace_n from_o god_n yet_o now_o and_o then_o defile_v their_o garment_n few_o walk_n as_o zacharie_n do_v just_o without_o reproof_n many_o hereby_o give_v occasion_n to_o the_o profane_a to_o speak_v evil_a of_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o let_v we_o consider_v this_o god_n have_v give_v we_o new_a garment_n which_o we_o shall_v not_o defile_v if_o a_o man_n have_v the_o king_n livery_n he_o will_v keep_v it_o well_o and_o clean_o if_o it_o be_v but_o for_o the_o king_n sake_n that_o give_v it_o unto_o he_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o a_o true_a christian_n his_o garment_n may_v as_o it_o be_v catch_v lint_n that_o be_v be_v soil_v with_o some_o infirmity_n but_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o our_o garment_n be_v not_o defile_v that_o be_v our_o profession_n stain_v with_o gross_a sin_n as_o pride_n worldliness_n impudency_n and_o such_o like_a it_o be_v a_o comely_a thing_n as_o can_v be_v see_v on_o god_n earth_n to_o see_v a_o christian_a walk_n answerable_o to_o his_o call_n i_o grant_v that_o many_o have_v slanderous_a report_n raise_v against_o they_o but_o yet_o let_v we_o be_v careful_a to_o give_v no_o just_a offence_n or_o occasion_n to_o the_o wicked_a to_o reproach_v our_o profession_n and_o to_o say_v lo_o such_o a_o one_o for_o all_o his_o profession_n he_o be_v as_o much_o give_v to_o the_o world_n as_o other_o or_o bring_v up_o his_o child_n as_o proud_o as_o other_o and_o they_o shall_v walk_v with_o he_o in_o white_a for_o they_o be_v worthy_a here_o now_o he_o come_v to_o make_v a_o excellent_a promise_n to_o sincere_a and_o good_a

which_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o this_o borrow_a speech_n of_o walk_v with_o he_o in_o white_a a_o fit_a promise_n to_o those_o which_o in_o their_o life_n time_n have_v care_n to_o keep_v their_o garment_n from_o defile_v such_o as_o walk_v after_o christ_n in_o holiness_n shall_v walk_v with_o he_o in_o glory_n and_o happiness_n this_o be_v a_o excellent_a promise_n to_o they_o which_o hold_v out_o to_o the_o end_n and_o a_o argument_n to_o encourage_v we_o unto_o this_o cheerful_a keep_v our_o garment_n clean_o in_o this_o life_n though_o it_o be_v somewhat_o painful_a and_o troublesome_a who_o will_v not_o be_v content_a to_o endure_v some_o cross_n &_o take_v some_o pain_n here_o to_o live_v godly_a see_v such_o may_v be_v assure_v they_o shall_v one_o day_n reign_v with_o christ_n in_o glory_n let_v not_o all_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o world_n or_o flesh_n or_o devil_n make_v we_o loose_v our_o white_a garment_n in_o heaven_n that_o be_v eternal_a glory_n holiness_n &_o happiness_n with_o jesus_n christ_n there_o we_o shall_v be_v pay_v for_o all_o our_o pain_n as_o for_o those_o which_o be_v ungodly_a they_o shall_v not_o walk_v in_o white_a but_o in_o black_a yea_o they_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o blackness_n of_o darkness_n for_o that_o they_o live_v here_o to_o commit_v the_o work_n of_o darkness_n they_o shall_v partake_v of_o the_o

conscience_n to_o keep_v they_o clean_o still_o such_o shall_v be_v sure_a that_o their_o labour_n shall_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a in_o the_o lord_n but_o let_v not_o lazy_a christian_n think_v to_o have_v the_o like_a portion_n of_o eternal_a joy_n and_o happiness_n as_o the_o other_o sort_n that_o be_v zealous_a christiansas_n before_o say_v and_o as_o for_o such_o as_o be_v whole_o give_v to_o

they_o so_o they_o be_v worthy_a because_o their_o work_n be_v perfect_o wicked_a as_o for_o the_o godly_a their_o worthiness_n be_v only_o in_o regard_n of_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n there_o

for_o they_o also_o to_o be_v free_v from_o that_o their_o estate_n and_o to_o become_v partaker_n of_o mercy_n for_o if_o either_o thou_o be_v ignorant_a or_o a_o liver_n still_o in_o some_o gross_a
