therefore_o say_v chrysostom_n as_o i_o have_v say_v wine_n antioch_n be_v not_o ill_o but_o drunkenness_n be_v ill_a so_o say_v i_o riches_n be_v not_o ill_o but_o covetousness_n be_v ill_a a_o

because_o he_o want_v mercy_n for_o it_o may_v be_v that_o one_o have_v riches_n join_v with_o mercy_n may_v attain_v to_o all_o goodness_n by_o these_o testimony_n of_o the_o ancient_a learned_a father_n ground_v upon_o the_o example_n and_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n you_o may_v perceive_v that_o riches_n be_v the_o good_a gift_n and_o blessing_n of_o god_n that_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n have_v use_v and_o enjoy_v they_o that_o wealth_n &_o possession_n of_o themselves_o be_v not_o hinderous_a to_o piety_n &_o godliness_n but_o rather_o instrument_n of_o virtue_n and_o mean_n to_o come_v to_o heaven_n that_o god_n do_v not_o condemn_v they_o in_o his_o servant_n that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o man_n void_a of_o land_n and_o possession_n but_o a_o heart_n void_a of_o

that_o any_o state_n of_o his_o disciple_n or_o faithful_a servant_n and_o follower_n ought_v not_o to_o have_v land_n possession_n or_o ample_a and_o large_a live_n or_o that_o they_o be_v by_o his_o

consider_v the_o particular_a place_n of_o this_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n whereon_o this_o assertion_n be_v ground_v where_o christ_n say_v hoard_v not_o up_o treasure_n for_o yourselves_o on_o earth_n 6._o he_o say_v not_o you_o shall_v have_v no_o treasure_n to_o have_v treasure_n and_o to_o hoard_v treasure_n be_v diverse_a he_o that_o hoard_v up_o treasure_n show_v that_o he_o have_v a_o careful_a mind_n to_o keep_v they_o but_o a_o man_n may_v possess_v treasure_n and_o yet_o with_o free_a heart_n be_v willing_a to_o employ_v they_o to_o godly_a purpose_n like_v as_o job_n do_v who_o have_v his_o riches_n always_o ready_a to_o pleasure_v other_o when_o christ_n affirm_v that_o where_o a_o man_n treasure_n be_v there_o be_v his_o heart_n by_o treasure_n he_o mean_v not_o the_o possession_n of_o riches_n simple_o but_o he_o mean_v that_o wherein_o a_o man_n repose_v his_o chief_a treasure_n and_o felicity_n to_o consist_v and_o in_o deed_n it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o that_o

in_o building_n give_v over_o his_o cogitation_n unto_o that_o so_o he_o that_o judge_v his_o blessedness_n in_o this_o life_n to_o be_v in_o possession_n of_o riches_n &_o land_n undoubted_o can_v not_o but_o have_v his_o heart_n fasten_v upon_o they_o and_o see_v that_o god_n challenge_v unto_o himself_o all_o our_o whole_a heart_n and_o our_o whole_a soul_n and_o mind_n they_o that_o so_o
