apostle_n of_o christ_n go_v about_o earnest_o to_o sever_v hypocrisy_n from_o love_n for_o paul_n say_v let_v not_o your_o love_n be_v feign_v again_o the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v love_n of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n not_o feign_v on_o the_o other_o side_n john_n cry_v out_o say_v my_o babe_n let_v we_o not_o love_v in_o word_n nor_o in_o tongue_n

it_o be_v to_o be_v look_v for_o of_o ourselves_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o for_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v love_n thy_o neighbour_n as_o thy_o sel●_n that_o

this_o he_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o bestow_v on_o other_o as_o ardent_a love_n as_o may_v be_v to_o wit_n the_o very_a same_o affection_n that_o we_o bear_v to_o ourselves_o and_o our_o own_o estate_n and_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v ready_a to_o do_v good_a to_o other_o or_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o harm_n with_o the_o same_o care_n faith_n and_o diligence_n with_o the_o same_o zeal_n &_o goodwill_n wherewith_o we_o provide_v for_o ourselves_o or_o our_o own_o safety_n whereupon_o the_o lord_n in_o another_o place_n say_v what_o soever_o thou_o will_v have_v do_v to_o thou_o self_n that_o do_v thou_o to_o another_o and_o what_o so_o ever_o thou_o will_v not_o have_v do_v to_o thyself_o do_v not_o thou_o the_o same_o to_o another_o and_o herein_o do_v the_o lord_n require_v two_o thing_n at_o our_o hand_n not_o to_o hurt_v &_o to_o do_v good_a for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o not_o to_o hurt_v a_o man_n but_o also_o to_o do_v he_o good_a so_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o we_o to_o do_v for_o we_o ourselves_o desire_v not_o only_o to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o hurt_n but_o to_o do_v ourselves_o good_a also_o but_o if_o so_o it_o be_v dear_o belove_v that_o us._n you_o do_v not_o yet_o sufficient_o understand_v the_o manner_n how_o we_o ought_v to_o love_v our_o neighbour_n then_o mark_v i_o beseech_v you_o the_o third_o part_n of_o my_o description_n of_o this_o love_n where_o i_o say_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o love_v our_o neighbour_n with_o that_o same_o love_n wherewith_o the_o lord_n christ_n love_v we_o for_o in_o the_o gospel_n after_o s._n john_n the_o lord_n say_v this_o be_v my_o commandment_n that_o you_o love_v one_o another_o as_o i_o have_v love_v you_o so_o then_o here_o you_o have_v the_o manner_n of_o our_o love_n we_o must_v love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o christ_n have_v love_v we_o but_o in_o what_o sort_n have_v christ_n love_v we_o here_o

again_o in_o the_o gospel_n he_o say_v no_o man_n have_v great_a love_n than_o this_o that_o a_o man_n bestow_v his_o life_n for_o his_o friend_n so_o then_o such_o must_v the_o manner_n of_o our_o love_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n be_v as_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v to_o give_v our_o life_n for_o our_o neighbour_n and_o i●_z so_o it_o be_v then_o ▪_o that_o for_o our_o neighbour_n sake_n we_o owe_v the_o loss_n of_o our_o life_n there_o be_v nothing_o very_o that_o we_o owe_v he_o not_o consider_v that_o to_o a_o man_n nothing_o be_v more_o dear_a they_o life_n for_o soon_o will_v he_o loose_v all_o that_o he_o have_v they_o once_o to_o put_v his_o life_n in_o jeopardy_n whereupon_o the_o apostle_n john_n cry_v out_o and_o say_v hereby_o perceive_v we_o love_v because_o he_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o and_o we_o ought_v to_o lay_v down_o our_o life_n for_o the_o brethren_n this_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v understand_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o most_o evident_a example_n let_v we_o pray_v earnest_o and_o continual_o to_o the_o lor●_n stand_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n lest_o peradventure_o the_o same_o apostle_n condemn_v we_o who_o say_v who_o so_o have_v this_o world_n good_a and_o see_v his_o brother_n have_v need_n and_o shut_v up_o his_o compassion_n from_o he_o how_o dwell_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o he_o and_o now_o let_v we_o also_o declare_v that_o four_o steed_n &_o last_o manner_n how_o we_o ought_v to_o stand_v our_o neighbour_n in_o steed_n and_o how_o to_o do_v he_o good_a in_o show_v our_o dutiful_a love_n and_o civil_a humanity_n that_o have_v the_o lord_n already_o very_o fine_o set_v out_o in_o the_o very_o same_o parable_n wherein_o he_o teach_v we_o who_o be_v our_o neighbour_n for_o he_o have_v brief_o and_o yet_o very_o evident_o touch_v all_o the_o point_n of_o the_o love_n that_o we_o owe_v to_o our_o neighbour_n first_o the_o samaritane_n at_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o wound_a man_n be_v move_v with_o pity_n there_o be_v therefore_o require_v of_o we_o a_o merciful_a motion_n of_o pity_n so_o to_o regard_v other_o man_n calamity_n as_o though_o they_o be_v our_o own_o it_o be_v look_v for_o at_o our_o hand_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v as_o sorrowful_a mind_v for_o another_o man_n trouble_n as_o he_o that_o feel_v the_o misery_n according_a to_o that_o say_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v mindful_a of_o

the_o samaritane_n pass_v not_o by_o but_o come_v unto_o he_o he_o do_v not_o with_o sorrowful_a word_n wish_v health_n to_o the_o wound_a and_o so_o let_v he_o lie_v depart_v to_o dispatch_v his_o own_o affair_n for_o james_n the_o apostle_n say_v if_o a_o brother_n or_o sister_n be_v naked_a and_o destitute_a of_o daily_a food_n and_o one_o of_o you_o say_v unto_o they_o depart_v in_o peace_n

we_o read_v that_o the_o saint_n do_v simple_o attribute_v the_o benefit_n of_o justification_n or_o satisfaction_n unto_o their_o affliction_n i_o confess_v that_o daniel_n the_o prophet_n give_v

with_o all_o man_n therefore_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o sin_n before_o god_n but_o before_o man_n for_o there_o be_v salvation_n in_o none_o other_o than_o in_o christ_n alone_o but_o if_o any_o man_n do_v stubborn_o stick_v upon_o the_o letter_n we_o say_v that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christian_n be_v faith_n by_o which_o their_o sin_n be_v proper_o cleanse_v
