grace_n grace_n unto_o it_o i_o perceive_v that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o temple_n build_v which_o have_v be_v long_o neglect_v partly_o by_o the_o worldliness_n of_o the_o people_n who_o have_v great_a care_n of_o their_o own_o house_n then_o of_o the_o house_n of_o god_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o prophet_n haggai_n 1._o v_o 3_o 4._o he_o reprove_v they_o for_o this_o fault_n that_o they_o care_v more_o for_o their_o own_o house_n than_o for_o the_o house_n of_o god_n partly_o because_o of_o the_o great_a impediment_n and_o difficulty_n they_o apprehend_v in_o the_o work_n yet_o god_n have_v a_o purpose_n to_o have_v it_o build_v send_v his_o prophet_n to_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o the_o build_n of_o it_o hag._n 2._o 4._o as_o for_o impediment_n he_o promise_v to_o remove_v they_o all_o and_o assure_v they_o of_o this_o by_o haggai_n and_o zechariah_n yea_o he_o show_v to_o zerubbabel_n and_o the_o people_n that_o although_o impediment_n be_v as_o mountain_n yet_o they_o shall_v be_v remove_v i_o need_v not_o stand_v upon_o introduction_n and_o connection_n this_o verse_n i_o have_v read_v show_v the_o scope_n of_o the_o prophet_n to_o wit_n god_n will_v have_v his_o work_n go_v on_o and_o all_o impediment_n remove_v these_o time_n require_v that_o i_o shall_v rather_o insist_v upon_o application_n to_o the_o present_a work_n of_o reformation_n in_o hand_n then_o to_o stand_v upon_o the_o temple_n of_o jerusalem_n which_o we_o know_v well_o enough_o be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n kirk_n which_o in_o this_o land_n be_v once_o build_v but_o now_o have_v be_v deface_v by_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n we_o have_v long_o neglect_v the_o re-edifying_a of_o it_o partly_o man_n be_v give_v more_o to_o build_v their_o own_o house_n nor_o the_o house_n of_o christ_n and_o partly_o because_o of_o the_o great_a impediment_n that_o have_v discourage_v god_n people_n to_o meddle_v with_o it_o now_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o stir_v up_o prophet_n nobleman_n and_o people_n of_o the_o land_n to_o put_v to_o their_o hand_n to_o this_o work_n and_o i_o think_v god_n say_v to_o you_o in_o this_o text_n who_o be_v thou_o o_o great_a mountain_n thou_o shall_v become_v a_o plain_a there_o be_v two_o part_n in_o this_o text_n first_o a_o impediment_n remove_v under_o the_o name_n of_o a_o mountain_n who_o be_v thou_o o_o great_a mountain_n before_o zerubbabel_n thou_o shall_v become_v a_o plain_a 2_o in_o the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o text_n the_o work_n go_v up_o and_o be_v finish_v the_o impediment_n be_v remove_v he_o shall_v bring_v forth_o the_o head_n stone_n thereof_o with_o shout_v cry_v grace_n grace_n be_v unto_o it_o but_o that_o you_o may_v take_v up_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v say_v in_o order_n and_o method_n there_o be_v six_o step_n in_o the_o text_n three_o in_o the_o mountain_n impede_v the_o work_n and_o three_o in_o the_o work_n itself_o the_o three_o in_o the_o mountain_n be_v these_o 1._o it_o be_v a_o mountain_n see_v o_o great_a mountain_n 2._o a_o mountain_n reprove_v who_o be_v thou_o o_o great_a mountain_n before_o zerubbabel_n 3._o a_o mountain_n remove_v thou_o shall_v become_v a_o

shall_v bring_v forth_o the_o head_n stone_n thereof_o with_o shout_v cry_v grace_n grace_n be_v unto_o it_o i_o shall_v speak_v of_o all_o these_o god_n willing_a and_o apply_v they_o to_o the_o time_n as_o for_o the_o three_o in_o the_o mountain_n 1._o it_o be_v a_o mountain_n see_v it_o be_v call_v a_o great_a mountain_n under_o this_o be_v comprehend_v all_o impediment_n and_o difficulty_n

i_o find_v that_o king_n be_v call_v mountain_n in_o scripture_n and_o good_a king_n be_v so_o call_v for_o these_o three_o first_o for_o their_o sublimity_n as_o mountain_n be_v high_a above_o the_o

the_o kirk_n building_n that_o be_v make_v by_o they_o as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o ps._n 144._o this_o mountain_n that_o i_o may_v speak_v more_o plain_o be_v prelacy_n which_o have_v ever_o be_v in_o the_o mountain_n in_o the_o way_n of_o our_o reformation_n it_o may_v be_v some_o of_o you_o that_o hear_v i_o be_v not_o of_o my_o judgement_n concern_v episcopacy_n for_o my_o judgement_n i_o ever_o

that_o prelacy_n be_v antichrstian_n be_v intolerable_a but_o such_o be_v the_o prelacy_n of_o this_o kirk_n it_o be_v antichristian_a i_o may_v easy_o prove_v that_o that_o among_o many_o mark_n of_o

and_o error_n may_v be_v see_v in_o their_o service-book_n their_o tyranny_n may_v be_v see_v in_o their_o book_n of_o canon_n i_o think_v there_o be_v none_o here_o but_o they_o may_v see_v this_o mountain_n no_o great_a tyranny_n have_v ever_o be_v use_v by_o antichrist_n than_o have_v be_v use_v by_o our_o prelate_n and_o exercise_v upon_o this_o kirk_n this_o mountain_n be_v see_v by_o you_o all_o i_o will_v have_v you_o take_v a_o view_n of_o the_o quality_n of_o it_o i_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o kirk_n be_v call_v mountain_n be_v so_o call_v because_o of_o
