the_o infinite_a marvelous_a wisdom_n of_o god_n which_o by_o a_o way_n altogether_o wonderful_a have_v knit_v or_o join_v together_o his_o perfect_a justice_n with_o his_o perfect_a mercy_n and_o that_o as_o well_o to_o his_o own_o glory_n as_o to_o our_o salvation_n and_o benefit_n mat._n true_a indeed_o but_o if_o thou_o do_v with_o a_o little_a more_o diligence_n mark_v that_o way_n thou_o shall_v find_v three_o thing_n which_o the_o reason_n of_o man_n can_v never_o have_v devise_v and_o which_o out_o of_o christ_n be_v find_v no_o where_o else_o for_o the_o avoid_n of_o the_o punishment_n due_a for_o our_o sin_n and_o they_o be_v these_o that_o we_o shall_v ourselves_o pay_v our_o debt_n unto_o god_n or_o else_o seek_v another_o which_o be_v both_o able_a to_o pay_v they_o and_o also_o do_v acquit_v we_o of_o they_o or_o that_o god_n himself_o shall_v forgive_v we_o whatsoever_o we_o be_v indebt_v unto_o he_o theoph._n i_o will_v have_v these_o thing_n declare_v by_o thou_o a_o little_a more_o large_o matth._n first_o therefore_o i_o will_v show_v that_o these_o three_o can_v any_o where_n be_v find_v save_v in_o christ_n and_o very_o whatsoever_o man_n can_v imagine_v they_o shall_v never_o find_v in_o themselves_o wherewith_o to_o satisfy_v god_n who_o also_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 32_o rom._n 11._o 32_o have_v shut_v all_o under_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n upon_o all_o neither_o shall_v they_o find_v any_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n sufficient_a to_o do_v this_o office_n but_o if_o they_o fly_v unto_o god_n his_o mercy_n to_o obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o their_o sin_n his_o perfect_a justice_n will_v be_v a_o let_v which_o require_v to_o be_v full_o satisfy_v theoph._n let_v we_o now_o see_v how_o god_n have_v join_v these_o three_o thing_n together_o in_o christ_n to_o reconcile_v his_o exceed_a great_a mercy_n with_o his_o most_o perfect_a righteousness_n unto_o our_o salvation_n matth._n be_v make_v one_o with_o christ_n by_o faith_n and_o therefore_o also_o partaker_n of_o his_o good_n we_o ourselves_o pay_v all_o our_o debt_n unto_o god_n and_o that_o of_o the_o riches_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v true_o make_v we_o and_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o perfect_a justice_n of_o god_n be_v full_o satisfy_v which_o indeed_o require_v this_o that_o he_o which_o owe_v the_o debt_n shall_v pay_v it_o nevertheless_o another_o have_v pay_v it_o for_o we_o namely_o christ_n who_o alone_o have_v drink_v up_o the_o cup_n of_o god_n his_o wrath_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v have_v 24_o 1._o pet._n 2._o 24_o bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o body_n upon_o the_o tree_n and_o therein_o most_o manifest_o appear_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o give_v his_o most_o dear_o belove_a son_n for_o we_o his_o enemy_n unto_o a_o most_o shameful_a death_n finnally_n because_o he_o that_o have_v satisfy_v the_o heavenly_a father_n for_o we_o be_v his_o dear_o belove_a son_n &_o everlasting_a god_n with_o the_o father_n free_o give_v unto_o we_o the_o continual_a forgiveness_n of_o sin_n as_o have_v be_v say_v be_v join_v with_o his_o satisfaction_n and_o that_o do_v especial_o make_v steadfast_a and_o sure_a his_o immeasurable_a mercy_n theoph._n very_o a_o notable_a discourse_n and_o very_o full_a of_o comfort_n let_v we_o now_o return_v to_o the_o exposition_n of_o our_o petition_n why_o be_v this_o clause_n add_v in_o the_o end_n as_o we_o forgive_v they_o that_o trespass_n against_o we_o matth._n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o promise_n make_v we_o of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n upon_o this_o condition_n that_o we_o forgive_v they_o that_o hurt_n us._n and_o christ_n will_v have_v it_o express_o mention_v because_o he_o know_v how_o hardly_o we_o forgive_v other_o their_o trespass_n therefore_o in_o this_o clause_n he_o call_v we_o to_o remember_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n except_o we_o also_o forgive_v our_o neighbour_n their_o offence_n hereupon_o be_v that_o threaten_n of_o god_n by_o the_o prophet_n against_o the_o israelite_n when_o you_o shall_v stretch_v out_o your_o hand_n 15._o isay_n 1._o 15._o i_o will_v hide_v my_o eye_n from_o you_o although_o you_o make_v many_o prayer_n i_o will_v not_o hear_v you_o for_o your_o hand_n be_v full_a of_o blood_n theoph._n therefore_o this_o manner_n of_o speech_n do_v not_o appoint_v a_o equality_n as_o if_o god_n forgive_v we_o so_o much_o as_o we_o shall_v forgive_v mat._n no_o not_o so_o for_o our_o forgiveness_n even_o as_o we_o ourselves_o be_v imperfect_a be_v always_o imperfect_a and_o savour_v of_o the_o uncleanness_n of_o our_o flesh_n whereupon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o even_o in_o they_o that_o be_v most_o regenerate_v notwithstanding_o they_o do_v unfeigned_o forgive_v as_o god_n require_v and_o desire_v no_o revenge_n yea_o rather_o be_v ready_a to_o do_v good_a unto_o such_o as_o have_v hurt_v they_o and_o do_v daily_o pray_v for_o they_o yet_o there_o remain_v some_o bitterness_n so_o as_o we_o do_v not_o embrace_v they_o with_o that_o affection_n of_o heart_n which_o we_o will_v have_v embrace_v they_o with_o if_o we_o have_v always_o be_v well_o please_v with_o they_o which_o if_o god_n shall_v do_v we_o be_v in_o very_o ill_a case_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o petition_n o_o lord_n according_a to_o thy_o promise_n forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n full_o and_o perfect_o as_o the_o most_o perfect_a god_n for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o as_o most_o imperfect_a man_n according_a to_o thy_o commandment_n have_v be_v favourable_a unto_o they_o that_o have_v hurt_v us._n theoph._n in_o what_o place_n be_v this_o commandment_n and_o promise_n matth._n they_o be_v present_o add_v by_o christ_n after_o this_o prayer_n in_o these_o word_n if_o you_o forgive_v man_n their_o offence_n 14._o mat._n 6._o 14._o your_o heavenly_a father_n will_v also_o forgive_v you_o but_o if_o you_o shall_v not_o forgive_v man_n their_o offence_n neither_o will_v your_o father_n forgive_v you_o your_o offence_n theoph._n i_o grant_v it_o be_v very_o right_a that_o we_o shall_v do_v those_o thing_n to_o our_o neighbour_n which_o we_o desire_v to_o be_v do_v to_o ourselves_o and_o so_o that_o god_n do_v most_o worthy_o deny_v they_o forgiveness_n that_o will_v not_o forgive_v their_o neighbour_n matth._n true_a especial_o see_v our_o sin_n against_o god_n whereof_o we_o crave_v pardon_n be_v far_o more_o grievous_a and_o far_o more_o in_o number_n then_o be_v they_o which_o our_o neighbour_n can_v ever_o commit_v against_o us._n and_o this_o do_v christ_n plain_o teach_v in_o a_o excellent_a parable_n when_o he_o say_v 23_o mat._n 18._o 23_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v like_a unto_o a_o king_n which_o will_v demand_v a_o account_n of_o his_o servant_n and_o when_o he_o begin_v to_o reckon_v there_o be_v one_o bring_v unto_o he_o which_o ought_v ten_o thousand_o talent_n and_o when_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o pay_v it_o his_o lord_n command_v he_o to_o be_v sell_v and_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n and_o all_o he_o have_v and_o the_o debt_n to_o be_v pay_v the_o servant_n therefore_o fall_v down_o and_o beseech_v he_o say_v master_n appease_v thy_o anger_n towards_o i_o and_o i_o will_v pay_v thou_o all_o then_o that_o

and_o when_o his_o other_o fellow_n see_v what_o be_v do_v they_o be_v very_o sorry_a and_o come_v and_o declare_v unto_o their_o master_n all_o that_o be_v do_v then_o his_o master_n call_v he_o and_o say_v unto_o he_o o_o evil_a servant_n i_o forgive_v thou_o all_o that_o debt_n because_o thou_o pray_v i_o ought_v not_o thou_o also_o to_o have_v have_v pity_n upon_o thy_o fellow_n even_o

commandment_n the_o lord_n forbid_v false_a witness_n bear_v which_o be_v no_o small_a hindrance_n to_o the_o end_n of_o controversy_n &_o do_v command_v that_o we_o speak_v the_o truth_n both_o

that_o be_v that_o not_o only_o outward_a obedience_n be_v require_v by_o it_o as_o the_o law_n make_v by_o man_n do_v but_o even_o the_o inward_a affection_n of_o the_o heart_n therefore_o under_o

any_o thing_n in_o we_o be_v it_o never_o so_o little_a that_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o will_n the_o five_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n honour_n thy_o father_n &_o thy_o mother_n that_o thy_o

which_o be_v that_o they_o shall_v live_v long_o wherein_o secret_o be_v contain_v a_o threaten_n against_o such_o as_o break_v it_o theoph._n that_o we_o may_v clear_o understand_v the_o former_a

and_o second_o what_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o name_n of_o honor._n answer_v therefore_o to_o the_o first_o question_n matth._n under_o the_o name_n of_o parent_n they_o all_o be_v comprehend_v who_o by_o any_o mean_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o office_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v the_o duty_n of_o parent_n towards_o we_o namely_o they_o that_o ought_v to_o have_v care_n for_o our_o

what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o god_n have_v comprehend_v all_o these_o above_o mention_v under_o the_o name_n of_o parent_n mat._n because_o such_o be_v the_o naughtiness_n and_o pride_n of_o man_n nature_n for_o it_o be_v puff_v up_o with_o the_o desire_n of_o highness_n and_o excellency_n that_o it_o hardly_o suffer_v itself_o to_o be_v subject_a unto_o any_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o

the_o custom_n of_o subjection_n theoph._n signify_v what_o the_o word_n honour_n signify_v let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o other_o question_n what_o contain_v the_o honour_n which_o we_o be_v command_v to_o give_v to_o our_o parent_n matth._n it_o stand_v upon_o three_o part_n first_o 1_o upon_o outward_a salvation_n proceed_v from_o the_o inward_a reverence_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o yield_v unto_o they_o which_o shall_v be_v do_v if_o we_o acknowledge_v they_o to_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n for_o our_o good_a 2_o the_o second_o be_v the_o obedience_n that_o we_o perform_v to_o their_o commandment_n so_o as_o they_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o then_o by_o the_o rule_n of_o peter_n 29._o act._n 5._o 29._o we_o ought_v to_o obey_v god_n rather_o than_o man_n 3_o the_o three_o be_v that_o when_o they_o be_v poor_a we_o do_v help_v they_o with_o our_o good_n it_o be_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o be_v observe_v that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o prescribe_v a_o rule_n to_o inferior_n whereby_o they_o may_v give_v due_a honour_n to_o their_o superior_n but_o do_v also_o teach_v superior_n their_o duty_n which_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v to_o their_o inferior_n theop._n what_o if_o the_o superior_n fail_v in_o their_o duty_n be_v not_o the_o inferior_n discharge_v from_o the_o honour_n due_a to_o they_o matth._n no_o not_o so_o for_o our_o sin_n be_v not_o excuse_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o other_o moreover_o the_o obedience_n we_o give_v they_o be_v direct_o refer_v unto_o god_n of_o who_o it_o be_v command_v and_o not_o proper_o to_o themselves_o theoph._n we_o have_v stay_v long_o enough_o upon_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o commandment_n let_v we_o therefore_o come_v to_o the_o other_o it_o be_v the_o promise_n the_o word_n whereof_o be_v these_o that_o thou_o may_v live_v long_o in_o the_o land_n which_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n give_v thou_o to_o the_o exposition_n whereof_o there_o be_v five_o thing_n whereof_o i_o will_v ask_v thou_o 1_o first_o why_o the_o lord_n join_v a_o promise_n to_o this_o commandment_n rather_o than_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o commandment_n of_o this_o late_a table_n 2_o why_o he_o

mention_n be_v make_v in_o this_o place_n 5_o how_o this_o promise_n be_v fulfil_v forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o sometime_o obedient_a child_n be_v take_v away_o by_o untimely_a death_n and_o the_o stubborn_a and_o disobedient_a live_v long_o now_o therefore_o answer_v to_o the_o first_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o the_o lord_n join_v a_o promise_n to_o this_o commandment_n matt._n he_o teach_v superior_n by_o his_o own_o example_n how_o they_o ought_v to_o behave_v themselves_o towards_o their_o inferior_n namely_o to_o allure_v they_o to_o obedience_n rather_o by_o gentleness_n &_o promise_n they_o by_o severity_n &_o punishment_n theoph._n go_v forward_o and_o in_o like_a sort_n answer_v to_o the_o second_o why_o be_v long_a life_n promise_v by_o god_n rather_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o matth._n the_o promise_n be_v very_o fit_o apply_v to_o the_o commandment_n itself_o for_o it_o teach_v modest_a and_o obedient_a child_n while_o they_o honour_v the_o instrument_n of_o this_o life_n grant_v to_o they_o namely_o their_o parent_n that_o they_o shall_v long_o enjoy_v it_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n it_o threaten_v death_n to_o the_o disobedient_a because_o they_o be_v altogether_o unworthy_a to_o have_v the_o use_n of_o that_o benefit_n the_o instrument_n whereof_o they_o honour_v not_o theoph._n the_o three_o point_n follow_v what_o profit_n have_v we_o by_o a_o long_a life_n see_v it_o be_v subject_a to_o so_o many_o affliction_n math._n i_o grant_v indeed_o that_o this_o corporal_a life_n if_o it_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n be_v most_o miserable_a &_o unhappy_a but_o it_o be_v a_o blessing_n to_o the_o faithful_a for_o continue_v in_o it_o we_o serve_v to_o his_o glory_n and_o sometime_o he_o grant_v we_o this_o that_o with_o great_a peace_n and_o quietness_n we_o enjoy_v sundry_a temporal_a benefit_n moreover_o this_o promise_n be_v apply_v to_o the_o common_a opinion_n of_o man_n for_o they_o account_v long_a life_n for_o a_o great_a blessing_n theoph._n let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o four_o point_n what_o be_v that_o land_n whereof_o the_o lord_n make_v mention_v in_o this_o place_n matth._n in_o respect_n of_o the_o israelite_n it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n which_o they_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n to_o possess_v it_o but_o in_o

last_o point_n be_v behind_o how_o this_o promise_n be_v fulfil_v see_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o in_o many_o place_n obedient_a and_o sober_a child_n die_v be_v young_a and_o the_o disobedient_a
