in_o the_o mire_n when_o he_o shall_v have_v wash_v himself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n will_v find_v mean_n to_o shake_v i_o off_o as_o a_o wretched_a and_o unperfect_a creature_n &_o although_o i_o have_v give_v my_o mind_n to_o all_o pureness_n that_o my_o life_n may_v be_v rule_v by_o his_o law_n and_o by_o his_o ordinance_n and_o that_o my_o work_v might_n be_v good_a and_o holy_a yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o say_a pureness_n shall_v be_v but_o filth_n if_o god_n rightfulness_n pass_v upon_o it_o and_o i_o have_v say_v already_o that_o this_o present_a lesson_n ought_v well_o to_o astonish_v we_o for_o though_o we_o be_v as_o pure_a as_o the_o angel_n yet_o be_v we_o not_o able_a too_o stand_v but_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o he_o uphold_v we_o as_o his_o creature_n without_o use_v his_o rigour_n against_o we_o for_o if_o he_o list_v to_o handle_v we_o as_o we_o deserve_v how_o shall_v we_o do_v now_o than_o if_o god_n may_v overwhelm_v we_o be_v like_o the_o angel_n alas_o be_v there_o any_o cause_n why_o we_o shall_v advance_v ourselves_o see_v we_o drink_v sin_n as_o a_o fish_n suck_v in_o water_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o this_o self_n same_o book_n see_v we_o cease_v not_o to_o go_v against_o the_o rule_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o and_o see_v we_o perceive_v not_o some_o one_o condemnation_n but_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o yea_o &_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o condemnation_n before_o we_o alas_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o man_n pride_n hereby_o we_o see_v what_o rage_n or_o rather_o fury_n have_v be_v &_o still_o be_v in_o the_o popedom_n in_o allege_v their_o own_o merit_n for_o the_o wretched_a folk_n be_v so_o puff_v up_o with_o pride_n as_o they_o ween_v themselves_o able_a to_o purchase_v paradise_n and_o if_o they_o do_v amiss_o in_o any_o point_n they_o have_v mean_n of_o their_o own_o too_o recompense_n god_n they_o have_v their_o satisfaction_n and_o they_o have_v their_o work_v of_o overplusse_n or_o supererogation_n as_o they_o term_v they_o and_o all_o these_o be_v payment_n too_o discharge_v themselves_o with_o against_o god_n the_o devil_n must_v needs_o have_v be_v witch_v man_n when_o they_o can_v so_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o bind_v god_n to_o they_o by_o their_o work_n and_o so_o let_v we_o weigh_v well_o this_o doctrine_n but_o by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o repress_v our_o affection_n and_o hold_v they_o short_a that_o we_o come_v not_o to_o the_o same_o point_n that_o job_n be_v at_o not_o that_o he_o rest_v upon_o that_o point_n for_o that_o have_v be_v a_o blasphemy_n but_o he_o confess_v himself_o too_o have_v be_v tempt_v and_o too_o have_v be_v provoke_v too_o say_v go_v too_o if_o god_n be_v a_o man_n as_o i_o be_o that_o i_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o answer_v he_o that_o we_o may_v go_v to_o law_n together_o and_o that_o some_o body_n may_v take_v upon_o he_o too_o be_v umper_n betwixt_o we_o then_o will_v i_o speak_v free_o and_o not_o be_v afraid_a if_o god_n will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o hold_v plea_n with_o he_o and_o suffer_v a_o judge_n to_o be_v set_v over_o we_o both_o then_o can_v i_o talk_v bold_o against_o he_o behold_v here_o a_o right_n dangerous_a temptation_n and_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o if_o job_n have_v conclude_v thereupon_o in_o himself_o it_o have_v be_v a_o curse_a blasphemy_n therefore_o he_o show_v that_o he_o be_v toss_v with_o that_o temptation_n howbeit_o that_o he_o withstand_v it_o all_o the_o while_n and_o it_o may_v happen_v that_o we_o also_o shall_v be_v in_o such_o trouble_n at_o time_n for_o unto_o man_n understanding_n it_o be_v a_o very_a strange_a thing_n that_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v keep_v god_n law_n that_o be_v to_o say_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v do_v yet_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v discharge_v before_o he_o man_n have_v always_o some_o what_o too_o reply_n in_o this_o case_n and_o at_o least_o they_o will_v lament_v their_o state_n &_o make_v their_o moan_n say_v be_v it_o possible_a that_o god_n shall_v deal_v so_o rigorous_o with_o we_o as_o that_o our_o fulfil_n of_o his_o law_n shall_v be_v nothing_o worth_a man_n than_o have_v a_o case_n which_o they_o themselves_o shall_v think_v too_o be_v very_o worthy_a of_o favour_n and_o so_o shall_v it_o seem_v too_o be_v too_o the_o worldward_o but_o when_o we_o be_v egg_v after_o that_o sort_n we_o must_v hold_v ourselves_o in_o awe_n &_o learn_v to_o know_v that_o god_n rightfulness_n the_o which_o we_o can_v comprehend_v as_o now_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v honour_v it_o for_o we_o have_v two_o way_n to_o magnify_v god_n the_o one_o be_v according_a to_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o manifest_v of_o himself_o unto_o we_o you_o see_v how_o god_n do_v in_o his_o law_n show_v himself_o a_o judge_n too_o condemn_v we_o and_o in_o his_o gospel_n he_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n to_o acquit_v we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o command_v we_o to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o righteous_a and_o therewithal_o threaten_v we_o that_o if_o we_o have_v fail_v in_o any_o thing_n we_o must_v be_v accurse_v when_o god_n show_v himself_o after_o that_o manner_n we_o have_v wherefore_o to_o glorify_v he_o and_o too_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v righteous_a howesoever_o the_o case_n stand_v for_o if_o we_o perish_v yet_o have_v we_o no_o cause_n to_o grudge_v at_o it_o again_o if_o god_n call_v we_o too_o himself_o offer_v we_o his_o grace_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o show_v that_o he_o desire_v nothing_o but_o to_o be_v at_o one_o with_o we_o you_o see_v yet_o a_o great_a cause_n too_o glorify_v he_o in_o his_o righteousness_n forasmuch_o as_o he_o have_v pull_v we_o out_o of_o hell_n and_o reach_v we_o his_o hand_n you_o see_v then_o by_o this_o how_o we_o must_v glorify_v god_n in_o double_a wise_a when_o he_o utter_v himself_o unto_o we_o by_o his_o word_n as_o much_o be_v too_o be_v say_v of_o his_o work_n when_o god_n bear_v with_o we_o by_o his_o mercy_n let_v we_o understand_v that_o he_o can_v thunder_v down_o upon_o we_o and_o that_o it_o be_v of_o his_o special_a favour_n that_o he_o do_v it_o not_o again_o when_o he_o chastize_v we_o for_o our_o offence_n of_o purpose_n to_o draw_v we_o to_o repentance_n see_v you_o not_o how_o he_o minister_v as_o many_o cause_n too_o sing_v his_o praise_n unto_o he_o yes_o very_o and_o so_o inasmuch_o as_o god_n show_v himself_o too_o be_v both_o good_a and_o righteous_a and_o wise_a as_o well_o by_o his_o word_n as_o by_o his_o work_n we_o have_v wherefore_o to_o glorify_v he_o but_o have_v we_o do_v so_o we_o must_v mount_v yet_o high_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n we_o must_v glorify_v god_n though_o he_o hide_v himself_o from_o we_o and_o show_v not_o himself_o too_o we_o neither_o by_o his_o righteousness_n nor_o by_o his_o goodness_n nor_o by_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o may_v cause_v we_o too_o say_v that_o the_o say_a glory_n be_v due_a unto_o he_o as_o for_o example_n when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v too_o we_o of_o his_o election_n that_o he_o choose_v who_o he_o like_v and_o cast_v away_o the_o residue_n and_o that_o he_o dispose_v of_o mankind_n at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n and_o likewise_o when_o he_o scourge_v the_o good_a and_o seave_v they_o oppress_v and_o we_o see_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v confound_v in_o this_o world_n in_o these_o caces_fw-la god_n hide_v himself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o show_v not_o himself_o to_o usafter_o such_o a_o fashion_n as_o our_o reason_n may_v be_v able_a to_o take_v hold_n of_o his_o rightfulness_n goodness_n power_n and_o wisdom_n and_o yet_o must_v we_o yield_v he_o his_o due_a glory_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o this_o strain_v and_o in_o so_o do_v we_o may_v well_o correct_v and_o beat_v back_o the_o temptation_n whereof_o job_n speak_v here_o he_o say_v let_v god_n go_v to_o law_n with_o i_o &_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o plead_v against_o he_o and_o i_o will_v do_v it_o bold_o alas_o and_o how_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o bring_v our_o matter_n to_o pass_v as_o i_o have_v touch_v afore_o job_n mean_v too_o express_v here_o that_o he_o be_v tempt_v to_o repine_v against_o god_n in_o that_o wise_a but_o he_o resist_v that_o encounter_n and_o even_o so_o must_v we_o do_v how_o be_v that_o because_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o although_o god_n shall_v give_v we_o the_o say_a liberty_n of_o plead_v against_o he_o yet_o shall_v we_o be_v confound_v but_o job_n

that_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n so_o to_o do_v but_o come_v we_o once_o too_o the_o great_a iudgementseate_n there_o we_o must_v all_o of_o we_o stand_v confound_v and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o god_n withdraw_v not_o his_o wrath_n all_o strong_a help_n shall_v be_v beat_v down_o by_o he_o and_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v gather_v together_o all_o that_o may_v

no_o hope_n at_o all_o that_o we_o shall_v prevail_v against_o he_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o fall_v to_o some_o agreement_n and_o how_o may_v god_n be_v set_v at_o one_o with_o man_n be_v it_o by_o make_v payment_n of_o themselves_o or_o be_v it_o by_o show_v themselves_o to_o be_v righteous_a when_o he_o make_v inquisition_n no_o but_o by_o make_v entreatance_n according_a to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v already_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v how_o it_o
show_v that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o genesis_n namely_o that_o his_o spirit_n shall_v not_o strive_v any_o long_o with_o man_n god_n have_v bear_v with_o as_o outrageous_a wickedness_n as_o can_v be_v and_o when_o he_o see_v that_o man_n abuse_v his_o patience_n after_o that_o manner_n he_o say_v i_o will_v no_o long_o plead_v with_o you_o i_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o put_v to_o my_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o the_o wicked_a may_v well_o file_v their_o tongue_n to_o justify_v themselves_o for_o they_o can_v good_a skill_n to_o chop_v logic_n with_o god_n but_o shall_v that_o further_o their_o case_n no_o no._n they_o rather_o sharpen_v the_o sword_n and_o god_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o execute_v the_o sore_a justice_n and_o the_o terribler_n vengeance_n upon_o their_o head_n so_o then_o man_n may_v be_v arm_v with_o their_o tongue_n to_o plead_v against_o god_n but_o god_n have_v his_o hand_n arm_v and_o will_v stretch_v it_o out_o of_o heaven_n to_o confound_v all_o such_o as_o shall_v so_o plead_v against_o he_o and_o this_o say_n ought_v too_o touch_v the_o wicked_a more_o than_o it_o do_v but_o what_o hereby_o it_o be_v see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o brutish_a blockishness_n in_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n nowadays_o there_o be_v no_o bow_v under_o the_o word_n of_o god_n nor_o under_o the_o correction_n that_o

if_o they_o have_v great_a wrong_n do_v unto_o they_o you_o wretched_a man_n you_o shall_v have_v prepare_v yourselves_o too_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o i_o tell_v you_o of_o that_o shameful_a

but_o yet_o let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n need_v to_o study_v how_o to_o tell_v a_o long_a tale_n for_o he_o will_v conclude_v and_o execute_v his_o sentence_n without_o pronounce_v it_o new_a again_o for_o we_o have_v enough_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n wherein_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o text_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o confess_v our_o fault_n afore_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v forgive_v at_o his_o hand_n but_o if_o we_o stand_v plead_v with_o he_o or_o if_o we_o seek_v lurkinghole_n to_o hide_v our_o iniquity_n we_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v convince_v by_o his_o word_n but_o also_o he_o will_v lay_v so_o rough_a hand_n upon_o we_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v overwhelm_v under_o he_o yea_o even_o without_o any_o remedy_n and_o then_o will_v it_o be_v no_o time_n too_o ask_v forgiveness_n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v the_o convenient_a time_n that_o god_n assign_v we_o while_o he_o offer_v we_o the_o mean_a to_o obtain_v mercy_n of_o he_o by_o his_o gospel_n now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o too_o make_v we_o so_o to_o feel_v they_o as_o it_o may_v lead_v we_o too_o true_a repentance_n and_o that_o in_o steed_n of_o harden_v of_o ourselves_o we_o may_v be_v so_o hartbroken_a yea_o even_o before_o he_o make_v we_o feel_v the_o soreness_n of_o his_o wrath_n as_o every_o one_o of_o we_o maybe_o his_o own_o judge_n to_o the_o

and_o so_o let_v we_o all_o say_v almighty_a god_n our_o heavenly_a father_n etc_n etc_n the_o lxxvij_o sermon_n which_o be_v the_o first_o upon_o the_o xxj_o chapter_n and_o job_n answer_v and_o say_v 2_o hear_v my_o word_n and_o let_v it_o be_v for_o your_o comfort_n 3_o bear_n with_o i_o and_o i_o will_v speak_v and_o when_o i_o have_v speak_v mock_v you_o on_o 4_o be_v my_o talk_n unto_o

afraid_a and_o fear_n take_v hold_v on_o my_o flesh_n it_o seem_v after_o a_o sort_n that_o the_o word_n which_o job_n set_v down_o here_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n inasmuch_o as_o he_o avouch_v that_o god_n punish_v notthe_v wicked_a but_o let_v they_o alone_o so_o as_o they_o prosper_v but_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o that_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o judgement_n that_o god_n execute_v in_o the_o world_n according_a to_o the_o record_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n then_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n this_o talk_n of_o job_n seem_v utter_o repugnant_a too_o all_o truth_n but_o we_o must_v remember_v what_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o namely_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n speak_v of_o god_n judgement_n it_o say_v not_o that_o he_o accomplish_v they_o peremptory_o for_o sometime_o he_o take_v in_o hand_n to_o show_v himself_o judge_v of_o the_o world_n but_o that_o be_v not_o in_o all_o point_n and_o all_o caces_fw-la nor_o yet_o after_o all_o one_o rate_n therefore_o it_o ought_v to_o suffice_v we_o that_o god_n give_v we_o some_o token_n that_o the_o wicked_a can_v escape_v his_o hand_n but_o must_v come_v too_o account_v before_o he_o nevertheless_o god_n do_v sometime_o dissemble_v and_o we_o see_v it_o by_o experience_n so_o than_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n do_v by_o his_o providence_n govern_v the_o world_n maintain_v and_o preserve_v the_o good_a and_o punish_v the_o wicked_a as_o we_o make_v it_o no_o general_a rule_n that_o all_o such_o
say_a text_n too_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v here_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v the_o treasure_n of_o ezechias_n and_o of_o all_o his_o people_n isaiah_n therefore_o do_v well_o show_v there_o that_o which_o job_n mean_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o such_o as_o know_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n teach_v by_o his_o word_n will_v not_o be_v wed_v to_o these_o small_a and_o fond_a subtlety_n but_o will_v be_v well_o ground_v in_o knowledge_n how_o to_o rule_v their_o life_n &_o to_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o under_o the_o word_n treasure_n he_o show_v that_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n whereupon_o man_n must_v whole_o settle_v themselves_o as_o upon_o their_o full_a and_o perfect_v felicity_n and_o wherein_o they_o must_v take_v their_o full_a contentation_n and_o rest_n now_o we_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v speak_v here_o be_v very_o true_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o man_n shall_v then_o be_v wise_a and_o skilful_a when_o they_o shall_v have_v profit_v so_o far_o as_o to_o walk_v in_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o in_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o furthermore_o let_v we_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o have_v be_v touch_v already_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o therewithal_o we_o must_v apply_v our_o whole_a study_n and_o set_v our_o whole_a mind_n upon_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n because_o there_o be_v nothing_o there_o which_o be_v not_o for_o our_o profit_n and_o sure_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o fear_n god_n and_o to_o give_v ourselves_o to_o his_o service_n unless_o we_o be_v acquaint_v with_o his_o goodness_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o hundred_o and_o thirty_o psalm_n lord_n thou_o be_v good_a and_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o thou_o too_o the_o end_n that_o man_n shall_v fear_v thou_o we_o see_v then_o that_o man_n can_v not_o be_v ground_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n until_o they_o have_v know_v god_n mercy_n and_o take_v hold_n of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n to_o come_v to_o he_o with_o a_o free_a heart_n and_o too_o seek_v he_o for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o shun_v god_n we_o be_v fierce_a against_o he_o and_o consequent_o rebel_n but_o man_n shall_v never_o conceive_v a_o right_n taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n except_o they_o be_v teach_v it_o by_o the_o scripture_n and_o that_o also_o be_v the_o place_n where_o true_a fear_n be_v for_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o under_o this_o word_n fear_n the_o scripture_n mean_v only_o some_o bondage_n that_o man_n shall_v yield_v unto_o god_n as_o though_o they_o be_v enforce_v thereunto_o but_o this_o fear_n here_o import_v that_o we_o must_v be_v full_o mind_v to_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v govern_v by_o god_n hand_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n know_v what_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n be_v and_o yield_v he_o such_o reverence_n as_o we_o may_v be_v true_o join_v unto_o he_o and_o undoubted_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o honour_n that_o belong_v unto_o he_o he_o not_o only_o allege_v his_o majesty_n nor_o only_o say_v that_o he_o be_v master_n and_o lord_n but_o therewithal_o also_o say_v that_o he_o be_v a_o father_n for_o he_o cry_v out_o by_o his_o prophet_n malachi_n if_o i_o be_v your_o master_n where_o be_v your_o fear_n and_o if_o i_o be_v your_o father_n where_o be_v your_o love_n true_a it_o be_v that_o in_o that_o place_n he_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o love_n and_o fear_n but_o afterward_o he_o show_v that_o those_o two_o word_n come_v both_o to_o one_o end_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v he_o both_o as_o a_o father_n and_o a_o master_n we_o ought_v to_o love_v he_o howbeit_o with_o such_o reverence_n as_o in_o all_o our_o life_n we_o desire_v nothing_o ne_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o obey_v he_o so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o that_o job_n be_v so_o far_o off_o here_o from_o intend_v to_o reject_v faith_n that_o he_o rather_o lead_v we_o unto_o it_o for_o that_o also_o be_v the_o point_n whereat_o we_o must_v begin_v too_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o our_o god_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o wisdom_n pray_v god_n to_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o ephesian_n too_o the_o end_n they_o may_v know_v how_o to_o hope_v for_o the_o salvation_n that_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o

for_o a_o certainty_n that_o when_o we_o have_v go_v to_o &_o fro_o all_o that_o ever_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o know_v be_v but_o to_o conceive_v how_o god_n show_v himself_o a_o father_n &_o

than_o we_o see_v that_o to_o fear_n god_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v sure_a of_o his_o goodness_n but_o here_o job_n have_v set_v down_o one_o particular_a for_o the_o whole_a purposely_o to_o

therein_o it_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o our_o whole_a wisdom_n consist_v this_o than_o ought_v to_o inflame_v we_o great_o to_o seek_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a

be_v to_o be_v desire_v of_o it_o own_o nature_n yea_o and_o that_o we_o will_v fain_o be_v bereave_v of_o it_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o be_v inflame_v with_o such_o zeal_n to_o profit_n

same_o consist_v in_o two_o point_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o be_v pitiful_a towards_o our_o neighbour_n when_o we_o see_v they_o in_o adversity_n and_o also_o when_o we_o have_v such_o a_o pitiful_a affection_n as_o we_o seek_v the_o mean_n to_o succour_v they_o and_o every_o man_n strain_v himself_o to_o his_o power_n
sleep_n trouble_v they_o and_o also_o that_o he_o speak_v by_o chastisement_n it_o seem_v unto_o they_o that_o here_o be_v the_o two_o manner_n of_o speak_v unto_o we_o which_o god_n use_v so_o as_o sometime_o he_o reveal_v himself_o by_o inspiration_n and_o sometime_o also_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o hand_n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n &_o it_o be_v a_o constrain_a sense_n furthermore_o we_o need_v not_o to_o beat_v our_o brain_n much_o in_o seek_v diversity_n of_o exposition_n see_v that_o the_o natural_a sense_n be_v manifest_a unto_o we_o therefore_o let_v we_o follow_v that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o which_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v speak_v once_o or_o twice_o yea_o and_o yet_o not_o be_v understand_v thus_o we_o know_v what_o eliu_n mean_v to_o say_v and_o now_o remain_v to_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o our_o instruction_n and_o how_o first_o of_o all_o by_o know_v our_o own_o slenderness_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o man_n take_v so_o high_o upon_o they_o to_o seek_v and_o search_v after_o such_o a_o sort_n as_o nothing_o may_v escape_v they_o but_o because_o they_o think_v themselves_o able_a enough_o too_o find_v out_o all_o thing_n but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v thorough_o well_o tame_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o challenge_v nothing_o to_o himself_o he_o will_v be_v no_o more_o so_o proud_a and_o lofty_a to_o search_v god_n secret_n to_o far_o out_o of_o measure_n so_o then_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v take_v profit_n of_o this_o text_n special_o first_o let_v we_o humble_v ourselves_o yea_o even_n by_o acknowledge_v that_o our_o understanding_n be_v to_o small_a and_o gross_a mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n let_v we_o consider_v also_o that_o god_n secret_a judgement_n be_v a_o dreadful_a dungeon_n that_o his_o way_n be_v incomprehensible_a and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n to_o wade_v to_o far_o in_o they_o but_o must_v content_v themselves_o with_o that_o which_o he_o declare_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o second_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v be_v that_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v ravish_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o it_o &_o conclude_v that_o we_o must_v not_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o be_v able_a to_o know_v &_o comprehend_v all_o that_o be_v in_o he_o for_o whither_o be_v that_o to_o go_v we_o creep_v here_o upon_o the_o earth_n &_o we_o know_v that_o he_o far_o surmount_v the_o heaven_n then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o honour_v his_o secret_a judgement_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o will_v always_o have_v authority_n to_o speak_v &_o utter_v what_o he_o list_v maugre_o all_o they_o that_o speak_v against_o he_o yea_o &_o that_o when_o he_o speak_v once_o or_o twice_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o show_v his_o pleasure_n and_o will_n man_n shall_v know_v nothing_o of_o it_o because_o they_o be_v to_o rude_a to_o conceive_v the_o thing_n in_o one_o word_n which_o god_n have_v determine_v in_o his_o purpose_n but_o shall_v daily_o see_v one_o thing_n &_o yet_o not_o withstand_v be_v new_a to_o seek_v of_o it_o yea_o &_o still_o dazzle_v at_o it_o even_o at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o year_n or_o ten_o &_o although_o they_o have_v see_v one_o thing_n often_o yet_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v hide_v from_o they_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o pride_n that_o be_v in_o we_o it_o be_v sufficient_o confirm_v unto_o we_o by_o experience_n that_o we_o never_o come_v to_o any_o reason_n but_o by_o compulsion_n &_o that_o we_o will_v always_o needs_o be_v selfwise_o even_o though_o our_o ignorance_n show_v itself_o enough_o &_o to_o much_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o we_o be_v warn_v in_o this_o text_n that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o determination_n as_o it_o be_v bury_v &_o hide_v we_o see_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o daily_o &_o we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v save_v that_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n &_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o bridle_v ourselves_o in_o wait_v till_o our_o lord_n revele_v it_o in_o great_a perfection_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v till_o we_o be_v bereave_v of_o this_o mortal_a flesh_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o and_o according_a to_o the_o article_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o let_v we_o note_v also_o that_o here_o be_v no_o speak_v but_o of_o the_o judgement_n which_o god_n will_v have_v hide_v because_o it_o be_v not_o for_o our_o behoof_n to_o have_v full_a knowledge_n of_o they_o as_o yet_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the._n 62._o psalm_n that_o god_n speak_v once_o &_o david_n protest_v that_o he_o will_v bear_v it_o twice_o namely_o that_o there_o be_v might_n &_o mercy_n in_o god_n there_o be_v no_o treat_v of_o god_n wonderful_a judgement_n as_o there_o be_v here_o of_o what_o then_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o learn_v by_o his_o word_n which_o be_v bring_v to_o our_o remembrance_n &_o set_v before_o we_o continual_o for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n god_n make_v we_o to_o feel_v his_o mighty_a power_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v fear_v he_o &_o walk_n according_a to_o his_o will_n on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o give_v we_o his_o mercy_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v take_v comfort_n &_o joy_n at_o it_o what_o learn_v we_o daily_o by_o god_n word_n but_o that_o he_o be_v the_o master_n to_o who_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v subject_a &_o that_o we_o must_v not_o live_v after_o our_o own_o lust_n but_o that_o god_n must_v reign_v over_o we_o &_o his_o law_n be_v a_o bridle_n that_o we_o may_v be_v teach_v under_o it_o thus_o the_o first_o point_n be_v to_o serve_v god_n &_o to_o know_v what_o he_o require_v &_o allow_v the_o second_o be_v that_o we_o know_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n &_o saviour_n to_o the_o end_n to_o put_v our_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o and_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v he_o by_o ground_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o mere_a mercy_n know_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o death_n and_o damnation_n in_o we_o and_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o have_v draw_v we_o out_o of_o death_n through_o his_o own_o mere_a goodness_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n thus_o as_o concern_v this_o second_o point_n the_o two_o thing_n wherein_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v confirm_v be_v that_o we_o must_v resort_v to_o he_o for_o resuge_a and_o also_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o his_o mercy_n be_v set_v before_o we_o daily_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v receive_v we_o so_o then_o this_o text_n of_o david_n speak_v not_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v keep_v hide_v from_o our_o knowledge_n but_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o declare_v unto_o we_o and_o teach_v we_o therefore_o he_o say_v god_n have_v speak_v that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n have_v so_o manifest_v his_o will_n in_o his_o speak_n as_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v any_o more_o nor_o to_o reply_v against_o that_o which_o he_o say_v i_o have_v hear_v it_o twice_o say_v he_o herein_o he_o betoken_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v hear_v god_n at_o a_o glance_n but_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o mind_v the_o thing_n without_o cease_v which_o he_o speak_v and_o although_o he_o speak_v but_o once_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o let_v his_o doctrine_n slip_v but_o settle_v it_o thorough_o in_o our_o remembrance_n and_o learn_v to_o print_v it_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o think_v upon_o it_o early_o and_o late_o because_o our_o memory_n be_v short_a so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o faithful_a to_o apply_v themselves_o thorough_o to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n show_v they_o by_o his_o word_n and_o to_o set_v their_o whole_a mind_n upon_o it_o assure_v themselves_o that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o tell_v and_o promise_v they_o for_o their_o welfare_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n howbeit_o heerewithall_o let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o seek_v any_o further_a and_o let_v we_o not_o covet_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v and_o how_o may_v that_o be_v by_o learning_n in_o his_o school_n and_o if_o he_o reserve_v any_o secret_a judgement_n to_o himself_o let_v we_o be_v ignorant_a in_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v know_v unto_o we_o until_o he_o have_v take_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n as_o for_o example_n it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n govern_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o providence_n and_o eliu_n speak_v too_o the_o same_o purpose_n here_o you_o see_v then_o that_o god_n
the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v afflict_v too_o how_o be_v it_o it_o do_v but_o make_v they_o hard-hearted_a and_o chafe_v against_o god_n and_o so_o little_a fare_n they_o the_o better_a by_o their_o affliction_n that_o it_o do_v the_o more_o bewray_v thire_z wickedness_n &_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o full_a measure_n of_o it_o but_o when_o god_n afflict_v his_o choose_a he_o overmaster_v &_o mortify_v they_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o they_o tremble_v before_o his_o majesty_n &_o become_v utter_o dismay_v &_o like_a man_n half_o dead_a insomuch_o that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o hope_n of_o life_n in_o they_o in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o and_o to_o the_o worldward_n and_o final_o there_o remain_v nothing_o for_o they_o but_o that_o god_n shall_v have_v pity_n of_o they_o and_o eliu_n set_v out_o the_o mean_a whereby_o god_n make_v his_o chastizement_n available_a towards_o the_o faithful_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o comfort_v they_o through_o his_o goodness_n and_o by_o tell_v they_o that_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o forgive_v their_o sin_n for_o although_o affliction_n be_v for_o our_o profit_n and_o serve_v we_o for_o medicine_n and_o salve_n as_o be_v show_v yesterday_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o appear_v not_o so_o but_o by_o the_o end_n now_o the_o end_n be_v show_v we_o here_o which_o be_v that_o god_n reach_v we_o his_o hand_n assure_v we_o that_o he_o will_v be_v merciful_a too_o we_o how_o so_o ever_o the_o world_n go_v notwithstanding_o that_o he_o have_v handle_v we_o rough_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o the_o life_n of_o our_o soul_n consist_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o give_v we_o assurance_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n towards_o we_o and_o too_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v esteem_v this_o benefit_n as_o it_o deserve_v it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o which_o be_v the_o warrant_a of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v as_o a_o odd_a man_n among_o a_o thousand_o so_o as_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v at_o adventure_n but_o be_v a_o treasure_n which_o god_n reserve_v to_o those_o who_o he_o think_v good_a beside_o this_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o that_o god_n in_o promise_a man_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o their_o sin_n give_v charge_n and_o commission_n too_o the_o minister_n of_o his_o word_n to_o draw_v they_o from_o death_n according_a as_o it_o be_v express_o say_v that_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v commit_v to_o those_o which_o preach_v the_o gospel_n too_o what_o end_n to_o forgive_v sin_n not_o of_o their_o own_o authority_n but_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o wretched_a sinner_n may_v be_v the_o better_o assure_v of_o their_o salvation_n and_o not_o doubt_v but_o god_n receive_v they_o to_o mercy_n therefore_o the_o minister_n tell_v they_o in_o his_o name_n that_o they_o be_v quit_v before_o his_o judgement_n seat_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v express_o say_v that_o god_n will_v have_v mercy_n of_o a_o man_n when_o he_o send_v he_o a_o good_a and_o faithful_a teacher_n and_o give_v his_o appoint_a minister_n the_o say_a charge_n and_o office_n of_o rescue_v and_o deliver_v the_o wretched_a creature_n that_o be_v in_o way_n of_o damnation_n how_o be_v it_o to_o the_o end_n that_o all_o these_o thing_n may_v be_v the_o better_a understand_v here_o be_v three_o point_n to_o be_v mark_v the_o one_o be_v that_o eliu_n show_v we_o the_o cause_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n namely_o that_o god_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o perish_v that_o be_v one_o point_n the_o second_o be_v that_o the_o office_n of_o such_o as_o preach_v the_o gospel_n be_v to_o draw_v wretched_a soul_n out_o of_o death_n and_o to_o set_v they_o at_o liberty_n and_o the_o three_o be_v that_o the_o same_o be_v not_o do_v but_o by_o express_a commission_n give_v of_o god_n according_a also_o as_o it_o belong_v not_o to_o a_o mortal_a man_n to_o take_v upon_o he_o so_o high_a a_o thing_n which_o be_v above_o our_o ability_n then_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n we_o see_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n bring_v we_o here_o to_o the_o wellspring_n of_o the_o grace_n which_o we_o obtain_v of_o god_n when_o he_o forgive_v we_o oursinne_n why_o be_v it_o not_o for_o that_o we_o be_v worthy_a of_o it_o not_o for_o that_o we_o be_v able_a too_o be_v beforehand_o with_o he_o not_o for_o that_o we_o bring_v any_o thing_n that_o ought_v to_o procure_v his_o favour_n towards_o we_o but_o because_o he_o look_v upon_o we_o with_o mercy_n to_o be_v short_a the_o holy_a ghost_n father_v the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n upon_o the_o only_a free_a goodness_n of_o god_n for_o we_o be_v so_o wretched_a as_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o damnation_n in_o we_o behold_v it_o please_v god_n to_o succour_v we_o and_o he_o do_v it_o not_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o find_v in_o we_o save_v only_o infinite_a misery_n but_o of_o his_o own_o goodness_n which_o move_v he_o thereunto_o this_o then_o be_v a_o point_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o obtain_v forgiveness_n at_o god_n hand_n we_o may_v not_o imagine_v to_o appease_v he_o with_o our_o own_o merit_n nor_o to_o be_v particauser_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o look_v upon_o that_o which_o be_v tell_v we_o here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o god_n will_v have_v pity_n of_o we_o he_o receive_v we_o to_o mercy_n out_o of_o hand_n and_o so_o eliu_n mean_v to_o advertise_v we_o that_o god_n do_v not_o always_o make_v we_o to_o feel_v that_o goodness_n but_o that_o although_o he_o love_v we_o and_o be_v mind_v to_o provide_v for_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o know_v to_o be_v profitable_a for_o we_o yet_o do_v he_o not_o always_o give_v we_o that_o feel_n but_o hide_v it_o utter_o from_o we_o as_o when_o god_n afflict_v we_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o turn_v his_o back_n to_o we_o or_o else_o that_o he_o vouchsafe_v not_o too_o look_v upon_o we_o or_o else_o that_o his_o countenance_n be_v lour_a towards_o we_o and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o behold_v it_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o the_o faithful_a shall_v now_o and_o then_o be_v dismay_v and_o seek_v god_n and_o not_o be_v able_a to_o find_v he_o not_o that_o he_o have_v forget_v they_o or_o reject_v they_o but_o because_o he_o will_v not_o as_o then_o make_v they_o too_o feel_v his_o love_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o eliu_n say_v express_o that_o god_n be_v merciful_a to_o we_o when_o he_o send_v we_o witness_v of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n by_o his_o word_n not_o that_o he_o be_v not_o so_o before_o but_o because_o we_o be_v then_o sure_a of_o it_o by_o experience_n and_o do_v as_o it_o be_v take_v possession_n of_o his_o goodness_n which_o be_v unknown_a unto_o we_o for_o a_o time_n the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o the_o office_n of_o such_o as_o preach_v the_o gospel_n be_v to_o forgive_v sin_n and_o it_o be_v a_o notable_a point_n for_o without_o that_o we_o be_v utter_o forlese_v and_o past_a recovery_n there_o be_v none_o other_o mean_a to_o give_v we_o hope_v of_o salvation_n than_o by_o assure_v we_o that_o our_o sin_n be_v forgive_v afore_o god_n and_o we_o quite_o and_o clean_o discharge_v for_o as_o it_o have_v be_v say_v that_o be_v the_o righteousness_n whereby_o we_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o so_o long_o as_o our_o sin_n be_v impute_v unto_o we_o god_n must_v needs_o

have_v good_a and_o faithful_a teacher_n too_o preach_v the_o gospel_n unto_o we_o for_o the_o end_n whereat_o god_n am_z be_v atonement_n or_o reconciliation_n with_o we_o according_a as_o saint_n paul_n declare_v where_o he_o express_v that_o the_o property_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v a_o message_n of_o atonement_n between_o god_n and_o man_n which_o be_v that_o jesus_n christ_n who_o know_v no_o sin_n but_o be_v the_o unspotted_a lamb_n do_v put_v himself_o under_o the_o curse_n of_o our_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v find_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o that_o be_v too_o say_v after_o we_o be_v wash_v in_o his_o blood_n and_o have_v put_v ourselves_o under_o the_o
conceive_v any_o heartburning_n or_o bitterness_n against_o he_o for_o we_o shall_v gain_v nothing_o by_o it_o but_o rather_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n what_o the_o holy_a scripture_n show_v we_o namely_o that_o it_o be_v needful_a for_o we_o too_o be_v mortify_v because_o we_o be_v to_o much_o give_v to_o the_o world_n &_o be_v loath_a to_o think_v upon_o the_o heavenly_a life_n if_o we_o have_v our_o own_o desire_n in_o what_o plight_n shall_v we_o be_v but_o there_o be_v yet_o moreover_o that_o god_n know_v how_o there_o be_v many_o secret_a rebellion_n in_o our_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v subdue_v as_o it_o be_v by_o main_n hand_n and_o again_o we_o shall_v nor_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o obey_v he_o if_o he_o shall_v handle_v we_o always_o after_o our_o own_o like_n &_o with_o our_o ease_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o chastise_v we_o and_o to_o play_v rough_a play_n with_o we_o howbeit_o therein_o he_o procure_v our_o welfare_n by_o try_v we_o and_o by_o send_v we_o rough_a and_o troublesome_a thing_n for_o if_o we_o grudge_v not_o against_o he_o at_o those_o time_n they_o be_v our_o obedience_n well_o allow_v and_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o be_v that_o if_o we_o judge_v discret_o of_o the_o affliction_n that_o god_n send_v to_o we_o &_o likewise_o to_o our_o neighbour_n we_o shall_v have_v the_o say_a rightness_n whereof_o god_n bear_v witness_v here_o by_o his_o own_o mouth_n now_o for_o a_o conclusion_n it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n send_v eliphas_n &_o his_o companion_n unto_o job_n &_o command_v they_o to_o offer_v sacrifice_n &_o say_v that_o job_n shall_v find_v grace_n to_o the_o end_n that_o their_o sin_n may_v be_v forgive_v they_o here_o first_o of_o all_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v that_o although_o god_n rebuke_v eliphas_n and_o his_o companion_n after_o that_o manner_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o drive_v they_o quite_o away_o and_o that_o although_o condemnation_n be_v pronounce_v upon_o they_o yet_o be_v it_o not_o to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v suffer_v it_o so_o as_o they_o shall_v lie_v still_o there_o utter_o throw_v down_o without_o remission_n there_o be_v then_o two_o sort_n of_o condemnation_n which_o god_n pronounce_v upon_o man_n and_o of_o those_o two_o the_o first_o may_v also_o be_v divide_v into_o other_o two_o general_o god_n condemn_v we_o either_o to_o the_o end_n to_o acquit_v we_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v find_v we_o too_o be_v humble_v or_o else_o to_o destroy_v we_o utter_o as_o he_o do_v the_o unbeliever_n yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o condemnation_n which_o be_v to_o our_o welfare_n the_o one_o be_v of_o such_o as_o be_v already_o faithful_a who_o god_n chastize_v daily_o for_o although_o god_n account_v we_o of_o his_o household_n and_o that_o we_o be_v full_o reconcile_v to_o he_o yet_o have_v we_o need_v to_o be_v condemn_v and_o to_o be_v stir_v up_o thereby_o continual_o more_o and_o more_o that_o we_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o ourselves_o and_o be_v sorry_a and_o hate_v our_o sin_n and_o seek_v the_o remedy_n of_o they_o to_o the_o end_n to_o magnify_v his_o mercy_n the_o more_o which_o he_o show_v to_o we_o in_o that_o we_o obtain_v forgiveness_n at_o his_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v there_o be_v a_o condemnation_n which_o god_n lay_v upon_o his_o choose_a notwithstanding_o that_o they_o be_v at_o one_o with_o he_o and_o he_o have_v take_v they_o into_o his_o flock_n and_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o condemnation_n which_o be_v healthful_a also_o and_o that_o be_v of_o such_o as_o be_v after_o a_o sort_n stranger_n from_o god_n church_n and_o have_v none_o acquaintance_n with_o he_o according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o he_o condemn_a saint_n paul_n at_o such_o time_n as_o he_o be_v a_o persecuter_n and_o even_o in_o the_o person_n of_o saint_n paul_n we_o may_v the_o better_o understand_v the_o thing_n which_o i_o intend_v too_o say_v for_o if_o i_o shall_v allege_v two_o several_a person_n the_o thing_n will_v not_o be_v so_o easy_a to_o be_v understand_v behold_v saint_n paul_n be_v so_o wicked_a a_o man_n as_o you_o will_v have_v think_v he_o have_v be_v utter_o past_o recovery_n and_o yet_o be_v he_o one_o of_o god_n choose_v he_o be_v mark_v out_o afore_o hand_n from_o his_o mother_n womb_n to_o be_v a_o apostle_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v of_o god_n church_n but_o rather_o a_o utter_a enemy_n too_o it_o neverthelater_n god_n condemn_v he_o when_o he_o do_v beat_v he_o down_o and_o rid_v he_o of_o the_o pride_n wherewith_o he_o be_v inflame_v before_o and_o make_v he_o in_o that_o case_n as_o a_o poor_a slave_n that_o burden_n be_v very_o heavy_a too_o he_o and_o it_o be_v a_o condemnation_n too_o he_o yea_o but_o yet_o be_v it_o to_o his_o welfare_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o the_o same_o pride_n of_o he_o shall_v be_v subdue_v and_o beat_v down_o by_o force_n you_o see_v then_o how_o it_o be_v a_o healthful_a condemnation_n but_o yet_o be_v it_o of_o a_o man_n utter_o estrange_v from_o god_n and_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v quite_o past_a hope_n of_o recovery_n now_o after_o that_o saint_n paul_n be_v once_o condemn_v after_o that_o fashion_n and_o thereby_o bring_v into_o the_o fold_n of_o god_n flock_n so_o as_o he_o become_v a_o sheep_n yea_o and_o therewithal_o also_o a_o shepherd_n &_o be_v not_o only_o one_o of_o the_o lamb_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o also_o a_o shepherd_n of_o his_o flock_n yet_o behove_v it_o he_o to_o be_v condemn_v again_o as_o how_o god_n buffet_v he_o for_o he_o say_v that_o god_n give_v satan_n leave_v too_o give_v he_o buffet_n as_o it_o be_v in_o way_n of_o reproach_n too_o the_o intent_n he_o shall_v not_o exalt_v himself_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o highness_n of_o the_o revelation_n which_o god_n have_v give_v he_o and_o it_o behove_v he_o too_o have_v that_o counterpoison_v too_o drive_v out_o the_o poison_n of_o pride_n and_o keep_v he_o from_o it_o thus_o we_o see_v in_o saint_n paul_n person_n that_o there_o be_v two_o manner_n of_o condemn_v which_o be_v too_o our_o welfare_n we_o see_v the_o like_a in_o this_o present_a place_n where_o job_n friend_n be_v condemn_v to_o their_o own_o salvation_n for_o thereby_o god_n open_v they_o the_o gate_n and_o show_v they_o that_o they_o may_v hope_v for_o pardon_n if_o they_o come_v too_o he_o with_o true_a repentance_n but_o yet_o do_v he_o draw_v back_o from_o they_o so_o as_o he_o come_v not_o familiar_o unto_o they_o as_o he_o do_v to_o job_n neither_o grant_v he_o they_o access_n and_o entrance_n unto_o he_o but_o by_o the_o mean_a that_o be_v express_v here_o that_o it_o too_o wit_n that_o job_n shall_v make_v intercession_n for_o they_o here_o therefore_o we_o see_v two_o diverse_a example_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o although_o he_o handle_v man_n after_o diverse_a fashion_n yet_o must_v we_o always_o consider_v that_o he_o procure_v the_o welfare_n of_o those_o who_o he_o have_v not_o utter_o forsake_v and_o thereby_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o take_v all_o the_o correction_n patient_o which_o god_n send_v and_o although_o he_o seem_v not_o too_o handle_v we_o as_o his_o child_n but_o to_o take_v we_o as_o stranger_n yet_o let_v we_o nor_o cease_v to_o hope_v that_o he_o will_v pity_v we_o at_o length_n &_o turn_v the_o condemnation_n which_o we_o shall_v have_v endure_v for_o a_o time_n to_o our_o benefit_n and_o soul-health_n now_o although_o we_o can_v lay_v forth_o all_o that_o be_v speak_v here_o concern_v sacrifice_n yet_o must_v we_o note_v in_o one_o word_n that_o god_n in_o no_o time_n receive_v man_n to_o mercy_n without_o sacrifice_n and_o that_o be_v to_o betoken_v that_o if_o we_o will_v obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n we_o must_v have_v recourse_n too_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v offer_v up_o once_o for_o all_o for_o our_o redemption_n for_o so_o long_o as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o the_o mean_a between_o god_n and_o we_o we_o must_v continue_v accurse_v forlotne_n and_o hopeless_a behold_v god_n be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o righteousness_n show_v himself_o a_o enemy_n of_o all_o sin_n but_o sin_n dwell_v in_o we_o therefore_o must_v god_n needs_o be_v at_o open_a war_n with_o we_o and_o his_o vengeance_n must_v light_v upon_o we_o yea_o and_o tarry_v upon_o we_o for_o ever_o and_o there_o be_v no_o shift_n to_o escape_v from_o it_o but_o by_o resort_v to_o the_o sacrifice_n whereby_o we_o have_v be_v once_o reconcile_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o less_o to_o be_v excuse_v nowadays_o after_o that_o christ_n have_v suffer_v his_o death_n
