behold_v god_n complain_v of_o we_o and_o accuse_v we_o of_o rebel_a against_o his_o mouth_n and_o there_o be_v two_o part_n of_o this_o rebelliousnesse_n the_o one_o be_v when_o we_o distrust_v god_n promise_n and_o the_o other_o be_v when_o we_o disobey_v his_o commandment_n &_o those_o two_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v learn_v in_o god_n word_n when_o we_o have_v toss_v and_o turn_v over_o the_o leaf_n of_o all_o the_o holy_a scripture_n never_o so_o much_o there_o be_v but_o these_o two_o point_n contain_v in_o it_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n y_z t_z for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n be_v desirous_a to_o be_v our_o father_n and_o saviour_n open_v we_o the_o infinite_a treasure_n of_o his_o mercy_n call_v we_o to_o he_o and_o set_v his_o free_a goodness_n and_o free_a love_n before_o we_o we_o shall_v believe_v his_o promise_n and_o rest_n whole_o upon_o they_o say_v lord_n see_v thou_o be_v so_o freehearted_a as_o to_o offer_v thyself_o thus_o unto_o we_o behold_v we_o cast_v all_o our_o care_n upon_o thou_o and_o hope_v for_o all_o welfare_n through_o thy_o bountifulness_n the_o first_o thing_n then_o which_o we_o have_v to_o do_v be_v to_o settle_v ourselves_o upon_o god_n promise_n when_o he_o offer_v they_o unto_o us._n second_o there_o be_v the_o obedience_n which_o god_n require_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v unto_o we_o go_v to_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o live_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o you_o obey_v i_o and_o yield_v i_o such_o service_n as_o your_o come_n to_o i_o be_v of_o your_o own_o accord_n and_o here_o moses_n say_v y_o it_o the_o people_n be_v always_o rebellious_a against_o god_n mouth_n forasmuch_o as_o they_o obey_v not_o his_o commandment_n nor_o trust_v to_o his_o promise_n now_o let_v we_o look_v into_o ourselves_o where_o be_v the_o faith_n y_fw-fr t_o we_o boast_v of_o in_o deed_n we_o can_v well_o unough_o say_v y_o it_o we_o believe_v the_o gospel_n but_o if_o god_n promise_n touch_v we_o effectual_o there_o will_v be_v another_o manner_n of_o steadfastness_n in_o we_o and_o we_o will_v not_o bow_v with_o every_o wind_n like_o waver_a reed_n as_o we_o do_v our_o unbelief_n betray_v itself_o &_o we_o be_v too_o much_o convict_v of_o it_o insomuch_o y_o it_o we_o can_v trust_v god_n even_o in_o worldly_a thing_n and_o if_o we_o can_v trust_v to_o he_o for_o small_a thing_n how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o we_o shall_v trust_v to_o he_o for_o the_o everlasting_a life_n we_o have_v daily_a experience_n of_o his_o succour_n and_o help_v &_o yet_o do_v we_o doubt_v thereof_o still_o and_o how_o shall_v we_o then_o trust_v in_o he_o when_o the_o case_n concern_v invisible_a thing_n 〈…〉_o col._n 〈…〉_o as_o the_o life_n which_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o till_o god_n discover_v it_o unto_o we_o

but_o yet_o be_v all_o but_o counterfeit_v for_o let_v we_o see_v if_o any_o of_o we_o do_v live_v so_o faithful_o and_o upright_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v where_o be_v the_o love_a kindness_n and_o charity_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v among_o the_o faithful_a and_o among_o god_n child_n nay_o we_o be_v rather_o like_o cat_n and_o dog_n and_o when_o the_o case_n require_v that_o we_o shall_v

in_o we_o we_o will_v show_v no_o less_o lewdness_n when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v great_a and_o more_o excellent_a i_o call_v they_o small_a thing_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o

to_o sermon_n we_o can_v well-enough_o pretend_v y_o it_o there_o be_v some_o agreement_n among_o we_o and_o special_o when_o we_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n &_o yet_o notwithstanding_o even_o in_o that_o behalf_n there_o appear_v such_o contempt_n of_o god_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o for_o i_o know_v that_o upon_o the_o last_o lord_n day_n while_o we_o be_v minister_a of_o the_o communion_n and_o while_o we_o shall_v have_v assemble_v altogether_o to_o make_v a_o general_a protestation_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o to_o offer_v up_o our_o prayer_n unto_o god_n about_o

within_o a_o while_n must_v needs_o go_v to_o havoc_n and_o by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o here_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v to_o show_v we_o the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 3.17_o 2._o tim._n 3.17_o for_o as_o say_v saint_n paul_n it_o be_v behooveful_a to_o make_v the_o man_n of_o god_n perfect_a in_o all_o good_a work_n therefore_o whensoever_o we_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n or_o hear_v it_o preach_v let_v we_o have_v this_o regard_n of_o profit_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o let_v we_o not_o think_v ourselves_o to_o be_v so_o far_o forward_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o go_v on_o still_o all_o our_o life_n long_o a_o man_n may_v think_v it_o strange_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v that_o he_o shall_v learn_v to_o

yes_o very_o but_o yet_o do_v it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n to_o be_v learner_n still_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o learn_v perfect_o at_o the_o first_o day_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o continue_v in_o it_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n and_o yet_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o we_o have_v live_v never_o so_o long_o we_o be_v but_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o our_o journey_n the_o thing_n then_o which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o mosese_n word_n be_v that_o when_o king_n have_v you_o e_o book_n of_o the_o law_n they_o must_v not_o keep_v it_o shut_v

who_o shall_v say_v i_o have_v read_v it_o and_o that_o be_v a_o sufficient_a discharge_n for_o i_o but_o it_o must_v be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o which_o be_v in_o good_a forwardness_n already_o and_o have_v serve_v god_n in_o his_o youth_n shall_v be_v the_o more_o quicken_v up_o to_o do_v so_o still_o know_v well_o that_o in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n come_v so_o near_o unto_o he_o he_o be_v the_o more_o strait_o bind_v to_o live_v virtuous_o that_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n in_o effect_n which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v away_o and_o moreover_o we_o ●ust_z every_o one_o of_o we_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o his_o own_o use_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o now_o it_o be_v say_v likewise_o that_o they_o bow_n not_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n nor_o to_o the_o left_a wherein_o it_o be_v

that_o all_o they_o which_o turn_v aside_o either_o one_o way_n or_o other_o do_v show_v sufficient_o by_o their_o life_n that_o they_o be_v despiser_n of_o god._n but_o will_v we_o have_v a_o good_a

presuppose_v a_o willingness_n and_o desire_n that_o we_o have_v to_o obey_v he_o if_o a_o man_n allege_v that_o he_o fear_v god_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n regard_v not_o to_o be_v

of_o their_o horse_n for_o covetousness_n sake_n but_o here_o be_v set_v down_o a_o special_a reason_n which_o be_v that_o this_o covetousness_n of_o they_o may_v provoke_v they_o to_o go_v down_o

let_v we_o not_o doubt_v then_o but_o that_o our_o lord_n will_v always_o maintain_v his_o church_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o show_v himself_o soothe_v fast_o although_o all_o thing_n seem_v forlorn_a

give_v we_o such_o power_n to_o resist_v he_o as_o we_o may_v have_v victory_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v upon_o this_o text_n of_o mosese_n furthermore_o where_o as_o he_o say_v that_o god_n lead_v his_o people_n about_o by_o the_o space_n of_o eight_o and_o thirty_o year_n until_o such_o time_n as_o all_o those_o that_o be_v able_a to_o

execute_v the_o vengeance_n which_o he_o have_v threaten_v to_o his_o people_n and_o as_o we_o see_v it_o be_v a_o very_a profitable_a lesson_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o tremble_v at_o god_n threaten_n as_o well_o as_o to_o be_v move_v at_o his_o promise_n such_o be_v our_o nature_n that_o when_o god_n promise_v we_o any_o thing_n we_o fall_v to_o scan_n and_o dispute_v of_o it_o so_o as_o we_o can_v rest_v upon_o it_o to_o say_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o we_o can_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v god_n will_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o will_v confess_v it_o with_o our_o mouth_n but_o as_o for_o to_o be_v full_o resolve_v of_o it_o we_o will_v none_o of_o that_o unless_o his_o truth_n be_v well_o seal_v and_o warrant_v in_o our_o heart_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o yet_o even_o then_o too_o we_o be_v so_o incline_v to_o distrust_n that_o we_o draw_v still_o back_o from_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n promise_v we_o so_o brutish_a and_o dulheaded_a be_v we_o and_o this_o appear_v yet_o more_o when_o he_o threaten_v we_o so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o ought_v we_o to_o think_v upon_o his_o judgement_n and_o to_o consider_v that_o if_o he_o be_v provoke_v the_o threaten_n that_o he_o have_v utter_v with_o his_o mouth_n shall_v not_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o have_v their_o effect_n and_o performance_n thus_o you_o see_v to_o what_o purpose_n moses_n rehearse_v again_o that_o all_o they_o which_o be_v above_o twenty_o year_n old_a at_o the_o time_n that_o the_o people_n murmur_v be_v consume_v and_o that_o not_o by_o casualty_n but_o according_a to_o the_o lord_n own_o say_n and_o this_o be_v to_o assure_v the_o people_n yet_o more_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v perceive_v that_o god_n threaten_v of_o they_o be_v in_o good_a earnest_n and_o herewith_o all_o let_v we_o also_o call_v to_o remembrance_n that_o god_n can_v abide_v that_o man_n shall_v despise_v and_o refuse_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o offer_v and_o let_v occasion_n slip_v for_o if_o he_o open_v the_o gate_n and_o man_n will_v not_o enter_v he_o can_v bear_v with_o that_o negligence_n of_o they_o match_v with_o disobedience_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o god_n be_v so_o provoke_v to_o anger_n that_o he_o swear_v that_o all_o the_o carkeise_n of_o the_o people_n shall_v rot_v in_o the_o wilderness_n 14.31_o num._n 14.31_o and_o that_o he_o use_v so_o sharp_a word_n unto_o they_o it_o be_v for_o that_o they_o have_v refuse_v to_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v they_o we_o see_v then_o that_o unthankfulness_n provoke_v god_n vengeance_n against_o we_o to_o the_o uttermost_a special_o when_o we_o refuse_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o offer_v we_o and_o that_o such_o refusal_n proceed_v of_o wilfulness_n and_o malice_n which_o happen_v in_o manner_n continual_o for_o what_o make_v we_o so_o loath_a to_o receive_v the_o good_a turn_n that_o god_n will_v do_v we_o but_o our_o own_o unbelief_n forasmuch_o as_o we_o think_v not_o that_o he_o will_v keep_v touch_n with_o we_o but_o rather_o fall_v to_o reason_v what_o will_v become_v of_o it_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o man_n shall_v never_o bereave_v themselves_o of_o god_n benefit_n but_o through_o their_o own_o distrust_n wherefore_o it_o stand_v we_o so_o much_o the_o more_o on_o hand_n to_o endeavour_v to_o believe_v all_o the_o promise_n of_o our_o god_n and_o to_o receive_v his_o say_n pure_o and_o simple_o and_o to_o yield_v unto_o they_o without_o any_o gainsay_n lo_o whereupon_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o rest_v now_o as_o concern_v the_o time_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n can_v have_v destroy_v they_o all_o at_o the_o first_o day_n which_o provoke_v he_o so_o to_o anger_n he_o can_v have_v send_v a_o angel_n to_o have_v make_v

they_o up_o and_o down_o by_o the_o space_n of_o forty_o year_n and_o why_o do_v he_o so_o to_o the_o end_n that_o other_o shall_v take_v example_n by_o they_o for_o god_n see_v that_o we_o profit_v better_o by_o his_o correction_n and_o judgement_n in_o process_n of_o time_n than_o if_o he_o shall_v punish_v we_o out_o of_o hand_n and_o away_o indeed_o in_o our_o own_o imagination_n we_o have_v lever_n that_o god_n shall_v thunder_v down_o at_o the_o first_o dash_n and_o we_o think_v we_o shall_v perceive_v his_o power_n much_o better_o if_o he_o wipe_v they_o quite_o out_o of_o the_o

take_v away_o all_o those_o out_o of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o live_v in_o it_o if_o it_o be_v so_o we_o will_v within_o a_o day_n or_o twain_o forget_v the_o thing_n that_o

they_o have_v their_o delight_n sport_n and_o triumph_n at_o their_o pleasure_n and_o that_o be_v to_o try_v our_o patience_n nevertheless_o sometime_o god_n set_v they_o languish_v as_o well_o as_o

than_o if_o he_o shall_v send_v they_o their_o punishment_n out_o of_o hand_n this_o say_v i_o stick_v fast_o in_o our_o remembrance_n you_o see_v then_o how_o we_o be_v better_o teach_v by_o the_o

and_o meek_a as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v no_o they_o come_v far_o short_a of_o it_o again_o there_o be_v a_o blockishness_n in_o we_o so_o as_o we_o dote_v upon_o these_o worldly_a thing_n we_o

there_o it_o be_v say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v not_o forget_v the_o brotherly_a love_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v in_o succour_v our_o neighbour_n that_o be_v distress_v for_o they_o be_v the_o sacrifice_n which_o god_n require_v and_o allow_v sith_o it_o be_v so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o if_o a_o man_n have_v wherewith_o to_o maintain_v himself_o abundant_o he_o must_v not_o exempt_v himself_o from_o do_v service_n unto_o god_n therewithal_o and_o after_o what_o manner_n every_o man_n must_v strain_n himself_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o his_o power_n to_o succour_v and_o relieve_v such_o as_o have_v scarcetie_n &_o want_n of_o worldly_a good_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o right_a use_n which_o our_o lord_n appoint_v to_o all_o his_o creature_n be_v to_o offer_v they_o up_o unto_o he_o to_o show_v that_o we_o hold_v all_o of_o he_o that_o be_v the_o very_a meaning_n that_o be_v intend_v in_o all_o the_o first_o fruit_n of_o old_a time_n and_o although_o the_o ceremony_n continue_v not_o at_o this_o day_n yet_o ought_v the_o truth_n thereof_o to_o reign_v still_o among_o us._n wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o cherish_v ourselves_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o forget_v not_o other_o folk_n and_o special_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o our_o unthankfulness_n will_v defile_v all_o our_o good_a fare_n if_o we_o acknowledge_v not_o god_n to_o be_v the_o giver_n of_o all_o thing_n unto_o us._n we_o hear_v what_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v to_o the_o hypocrite_n that_o take_v great_a pain_n to_o make_v clean_a their_o vessel_n that_o there_o may_v be_v no_o spot_n in_o they_o 26_o mat._n 13.23_o ●5_n 26_o make_v clean_o the_o inside_n of_o they_o too_o quoth_v he_o and_o afterward_o he_o add_v that_o the_o

according_a to_o jesus_n christ_n exhortation_n if_o we_o mean_v that_o the_o meat_n which_o we_o take_v shall_v be_v sanctify_v unto_o we_o let_v we_o look_v that_o god_n be_v honour_v by_o they_o and_o let_v we_o bear_v well_o in_o mind_n how_o it_o be_v of_o his_o only_a freegoodnesse_n that_o we_o be_v nourish_v by_o they_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o can_v neither_o do_v he_o good_a nor_o

receive_v the_o fine_n and_o other_o duty_n that_o we_o owe_v he_o for_o all_o his_o benefit_n thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o that_o say_n now_o it_o be_v

rest_v simple_o upon_o his_o will_n as_o shall_v be_v declare_v more_o at_o large_a to_o morrow_n by_o god_n will_n nevertheless_o moses_n warn_v the_o people_n here_o as_o he_o do_v in_o many_o

any_o body_n so_o as_o if_o any_o speak_v evil_a of_o we_o they_o may_v have_v their_o mouth_n stop_v but_o yet_o must_v not_o man_n be_v make_v judge_n of_o their_o life_n that_o authority_n must_v be_v reserve_v unto_o god._n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o scripture_n meaning_n to_o betoken_v a_o angelical_a perfection_n say_v that_o such_o a_o man_n have_v walk_v before_o god_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v fashion_v ourselves_o after_o the_o world_n what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o we_o see_v how_o the_o great_a multitude_n live_v out_o of_o all_o order_n and_o so_o shall_v we_o make_v evil_a custom_n a_o law_n when_o whoredom_n drunkenness_n outrage_n violence_n and_o blasphemy_n reign_v we_o will_v bear_v ourselves_o in_o hand_n that_o such_o thing_n be_v permit_v us._n and_o why_o because_o they_o be_v grow_v into_o custom_n now_o therefore_o if_o we_o shall_v follow_v the_o guise_n of_o the_o world_n we_o shall_v be_v carry_v quite_o away_o again_o even_o they_o that_o pretend_v to_o be_v full_a of_o devotion_n may_v chance_v to_o use_v some_o pelt_a trash_n and_o baggage_n in_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n they_o may_v happen_v to_o make_v a_o number_n of_o geugawe_n and_o riff-raff_n but_o all_o such_o thing_n be_v nothing_o worth_a they_o be_v but_o flat_a mockery_n so_o then_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o walk_v before_o god_n &_o although_o we_o see_v thing_n utter_o out_o of_o order_n and_o all_o bring_v to_o confusion_n yet_o must_v we_o hold_v the_o right_a way_n still_o which_o god_n show_v unto_o us._n if_o we_o see_v man_n go_v astray_o and_o devise_v never_o so_o many_o fond_a devotion_n let_v we_o leave_v all_o such_o thing_n and_o be_v content_v to_o follow_v god_n ordinance_n sure_o although_o the_o world_n like_o never_o so_o well_o of_o our_o do_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o fail_v to_o be_v condemn_v but_o if_o god_n allow_v of_o we_o then_o have_v we_o a_o good_a warrant_n as_o for_o example_n because_o that_o nowadays_o we_o use_v not_o the_o gewgaw_n of_o the_o papist_n we_o have_v not_o any_o puppet_n here_o we_o have_v no_o deck_v of_o altar_n we_o have_v no_o taper_n nor_o such_o other_o stuff_n they_o laugh_v our_o

the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o our_o god_n and_o it_o be_v not_o for_o once_o only_o that_o moses_n
god_n and_o to_o yield_v he_o obedience_n his_o word_n must_v bear_v the_o whole_a sway_n so_o as_o we_o submit_v ourselves_o whole_o unto_o it_o mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n again_o whereas_o moses_n say_v this_o day_n it_o be_v a_o summon_n of_o the_o people_n to_o follow_v without_o delay_n when_o god_n call_v they_o for_o be_v it_o a_o small_a matter_n that_o god_n communicate_v himself_o so_o familiar_o unto_o we_o then_o be_v it_o not_o for_o we_o to_o require_v space_n to_o deliberate_v but_o as_o soon_o as_o god_n open_v his_o mouth_n by_z and_o by_o we_o must_v give_v

that_o our_o lord_n general_o mean_v that_o as_o soon_o as_o man_n hear_v he_o speak_v they_o shall_v by_o and_o by_o follow_v his_o say_n and_o fashion_n themselves_o thereafter_o and_o the_o

and_o without_o any_o delay_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o come_v to_o a_o sermon_n or_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n by_o ourselves_o as_o soon_o as_o we_o have_v hear_v a_o sentence_n let_v we_o enter_v into_o our_o own_o conscience_n and_o if_o we_o find_v any_o sloth_n there_o let_v we_o waken_v and_o quicken_v up_o

of_o our_o day_n reply_n that_o if_o ydolater_n shall_v be_v punish_v all_o of_o we_o shall_v die_v the_o answer_n be_v easy_a namely_o that_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n

will_v he_o not_o have_v the_o worthiness_n thereof_o to_o be_v diminish_v so_o as_o man_n shall_v not_o give_v audience_n unto_o it_o but_o he_o will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o stoop_v to_o it_o

this_o common_a order_n with_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n may_v well_o protest_v that_o they_o be_v christian_n but_o they_o come_v to_o the_o church_n as_o holy_a as_o horse_n bear_v
