love_v their_o brethren_n and_o every_o one_o that_o love_v be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o our_o saviour_n make_v it_o the_o true_a character_n of_o christianity_n by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o love_v one_o another_o joh._n 13._o 35._o 3._o because_o this_o be_v the_o unite_n grace_n among_o christian_n this_o make_v their_o society_n sweet_a

see_v themselves_o belove_v of_o their_o brethren_n even_o then_o when_o all_o man_n seem_v to_o hate_v they_o this_o make_v paul_n himself_o rejoice_v in_o his_o suffering_n phil._n 4._o 10_o 14._o i_o rejoice_v in_o the_o lord_n great_o that_o now_o at_o the_o last_o your_o care_n of_o i_o have_v flourish_v again_o you_o have_v well_o do_v that_o you_o have_v communicate_v with_o i_o in_o my_o affliction_n let_v we_o touch_v the_o thing_n brief_o which_o may_v be_v sure_a evidence_n of_o this_o brotherly_a love_n 1._o if_o then_o we_o love_v the_o brotherhood_n we_o be_v much_o concern_v about_o they_o in_o our_o thought_n for_o what_o be_v the_o object_n of_o a_o man_n love_n be_v the_o subject_a of_o his_o meditation_n all_o true_a lover_n know_v this_o by_o experience_n and_o let_v the_o love_n of_o the_o brotherhood_n exceed_v our_o love_n in_o other_o case_n a_o instance_n of_o this_o love_n we_o have_v in_o st._n paul_n col._n 2._o 1_o 2._o for_o i_o will_v that_o you_o

be_v comfort_v be_v knit_v together_o in_o love_n etc._n etc._n 2._o if_o we_o love_v our_o brethren_n we_o bear_v they_o much_o upon_o our_o heart_n in_o our_o prayer_n we_o can_v forget_v they_o if_o we_o right_o love_v they_o paul_n make_v mention_v of_o he_o in_o every_o prayer_n of_o his_o who_o he_o dear_o love_v 2_o tim._n 1._o 3_o let_v all_o christian_a brethren_n do_v so_o too_o for_o we_o can_v do_v less_o for_o any_o of_o they_o or_o for_o many_o of_o they_o we_o can_v do_v no_o more_o 3._o if_o we_o love_v the_o brotherhood_n we_o will_v esteem_v they_o high_o according_a to_o the_o virtue_n which_o we_o see_v in_o they_o 2_o john_n v_o 1_o 2_o 3._o and_o who_o we_o love_v we_o will_v commend_v and_o advance_v as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v because_o it_o be_v the_o native_a property_n of_o love_n to_o do_v so_o as_o appear_v in_o the_o interchange_n of_o love_n in_o the_o song_n of_o solomon_n between_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n and_o be_v the_o way_n too_o to_o increase_v love_n as_o all_o experience_n show_v 4._o if_o we_o love_v our_o brethren_n we_o will_v to_o our_o best_a defend_v their_o reputation_n against_o those_o that_o injure_v they_o thus_o paul_n vindicate_v not_o himself_o only_o but_o those_o faithful_a minister_n which_o be_v with_o he_o when_o some_o report_v of_o they_o that_o they_o walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o say_v let_v we_o do_v evil_a that_o good_a may_v come_v who_o damnation_n for_o such_o vile_a reproach_n against_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n he_o aver_v to_o be_v just_a 5._o if_o we_o love_v the_o brotherhood_n we_o will_v to_o our_o power_n relieve_v their_o necessity_n for_o he_o that_o have_v this_o world_n good_a and_o see_v his_o brother_n want_n and_o shut_v up_o the_o bowel_n of_o his_o compassion_n how_o dwell_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o he_o and_o say_v another_o apostle_n if_o a_o brother_n or_o sister_n be_v destitute_a of_o daily_a food_n and_o you_o say_v be_v you_o fill_v and_o give_v they_o not_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v necessary_a what_o do_v it_o profit_n wherefore_o let_v love_n be_v without_o dissimulation_n let_v it_o be_v fervent_a for_o to_o this_o end_n be_v our_o soul_n purify_v in_o obey_v the_o truth_n through_o the_o spirit_n even_o unto_o unfeigned_a love_n of_o the_o brethren_n 1_o pet._n 1._o 22._o 6._o the_o last_o evidence_n if_o we_o love_v the_o brotherhood_n we_o will_v seek_v and_o preserve_v as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o whole_a and_o the_o prosperity_n of_o every_o part_n pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n say_v david_n they_o shall_v prosper_v that_o love_n thou_o for_o my_o brethren_n and_o companion_n sake_n i_o will_v now_o say_v peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o prosperity_n within_o thy_o palace_n how_o great_o do_v the_o true_a son_n of_o david_n our_o lord_n jesus_n pray_v for_o this_o blessing_n upon_o the_o whole_a church_n that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v one_o as_o he_o and_o his_o father_n be_v one_o and_o what_o christian_a will_v not_o tremble_v to_o think_v of_o do_v any_o thing_n against_o the_o tenor_n of_o his_o bless_a prayer_n i_o will_v conclude_v this_o point_n with_o a_o solemn_a protestation_n against_o those_o evil_n which_o chief_o hinder_v the_o love_n of_o the_o brotherhood_n and_o the_o first_o be_v pride_n 1._o only_o through_o pride_n

love_n of_o the_o brotherhood_n diotrephes_n be_v get_v to_o this_o point_n present_o make_v havoc_n of_o the_o church_n by_o cast_v the_o brethren_n out_o of_o the_o church_n that_o show_v their_o brotherly_a love_n to_o the_o travel_a minister_n and_o why_o because_o he_o love_v to_o have_v the_o pre-eminence_n insomuch_o as_o he_o spare_v not_o to_o undervalue_v the_o apostle_n himself_o aproud_a professor_n can_v love_v the_o brotherhood_n 2._o as_o all_o proud_a man_n be_v enemy_n to_o brotherly_a love_n so_o most_o of_o all_o such_o as_o take_v themselves_o to_o be_v infallible_a about_o thing_n most_o disputable_a be_v vain_o confident_a that_o god_n be_v oppose_v when_o their_o imposition_n be_v not_o obey_v these_o man_n common_o drive_v furious_o rend_v and_o tear_v if_o

to_o become_v necessary_a 3._o those_o who_o make_v gain_v their_o godliness_n be_v great_a enemy_n to_o brotherly_a love_n these_o be_v call_v greedy_a dog_n by_o the_o prophet_n greedy_a wolf_n by_o the_o apostle_n these_o seek_v their_o own_o not_o the_o thing_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v enemy_n to_o he_o their_o god_n be_v their_o belly_n they_o mind_v earthly_a thing_n they_o change_v with_o
