to_o be_v persuade_v of_o our_o faith_n but_o we_o must_v be_v assure_v of_o it_o for_o religion_n be_v not_o build_v upon_o doubt_n but_o upon_o knowledge_n here_o we_o may_v marvel_v why_o paul_n bid_v we_o abstain_v from_o all_o appearance_n of_o evil_n because_o sin_n and_o heresy_n and_o superstition_n be_v hypocrite_n that_o be_v sin_n have_v the_o appearance_n of_o virtue_n and_o heresy_n have_v the_o appearance_n of_o truth_n &_o superstition_n have_v the_o appearance_n of_o religion_n but_o by_o this_o the_o apostle_n do_v note_n that_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n nor_o heresy_n nor_o superstition_n but_o if_o the_o visor_n be_v take_v away_o from_o it_o it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v a_o sin_n and_o heresy_n and_o superstition_n though_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n the_o visor_n do_v make_v it_o seem_v none_o because_o it_o cover_v the_o evil_a like_o a_o paint_a sepulchre_n upon_o worm_n and_o rot_a bone_n hereby_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o judge_v of_o all_o thing_n as_o they_o be_v and_o not_o as_o they_o seem_v to_o be_v as_o we_o draw_v aside_o the_o curtain_n before_o we_o behold_v the_o picture_n so_o we_o must_v remove_v our_o prudence_n and_o all_o surmise_n and_o then_o behold_v the_o thing_n naked_a as_o it_o be_v if_o we_o will_v know_v it_o indeed_o here_o i_o may_v admonish_v they_o which_o separate_v themselves_o from_o our_o church_n as_o paul_n say_v examine_v whether_o you_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n so_o examine_v whether_o you_o have_v the_o show_n of_o error_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o broach_v a_o religion_n which_o be_v never_o hear_v of_o before_o have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o retain_v a_o opinion_n which_o the_o author_n himself_o have_v recant_v as_o though_o you_o will_v suck_v up_o that_o which_o the_o dog_n have_v vomit_v have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o affirm_v that_o those_o preacher_n may_v not_o be_v hear_v which_o by_o their_o own_o confession_n have_v convert_v they_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o daily_o convert_v other_o have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o affirm_v that_o the_o lord_n prayer_n may_v not_o be_v use_v for_o a_o prayer_n which_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o or_o they_o can_v read_v be_v so_o use_v from_o the_o beginning_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o say_v that_o no_o man_n may_v use_v any_o set_a prayer_n see_v there_o be_v many_o prayer_n and_o psalm_n and_o blessing_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v use_v in_o the_o same_o form_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o affirm_v that_o we_o have_v no_o church_n and_o yet_o to_o grant_v that_o our_o martyr_n which_o die_v in_o popery_n be_v true_a member_n of_o the_o church_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o affirm_v that_o two_o or_o three_o may_v excommunicate_v all_o the_o rest_n without_o a_o minister_n see_v the_o pastor_n be_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o church_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o affirm_v that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v ever_o invisible_a before_o this_o age_n and_o that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o small_a flock_n as_o their_o number_n be_v &_o that_o it_o have_v set_v foot_n no_o where_o but_o in_o england_n have_v it_o not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n to_o hold_v that_o for_o sound_n and_o good_a religion_n which_o be_v alter_v every_o day_n add_v and_o detract_n as_o though_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v a_o religion_n of_o his_o own_o invention_n so_o fast_o as_o new_a conceit_n come_v into_o his_o brain_n let_v they_o think_v that_o paul_n say_v unto_o they_o 3._o be_v wise_a unto_o sobriety_n and_o suspect_v that_o construction_n which_o yourselves_o devise_v 27._o for_o solomon_n say_v there_o be_v a_o error_n upon_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o well_o as_o upon_o the_o left_a that_o be_v as_o i_o may_v call_v it_o the_o zealous_a error_n and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o it_o i_o know_v none_o within_o this_o land_n yet_o shall_v i_o say_v that_o we_o have_v not_o the_o show_n of_o error_n nay_o i_o will_v that_o we_o be_v but_o in_o the_o show_n of_o error_n i_o may_v not_o call_v evil_a good_a no_o more_o than_o i_o may_v call_v good_a evil_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o pull_v out_o the_o beam_n out_o of_o our_o own_o eye_n as_o we_o will_v pull_v the_o moat_n out_o of_o their_o eye_n if_o paul_n will_v have_v we_o abstain_v from_o every_o appearance_n of_o evil_a sure_o he_o will_v have_v we_o abstain_v from_o heresy_n and_o from_o idolatry_n for_o these_o be_v the_o great_a evil_n but_o if_o we_o be_v not_o idolater_n yet_o we_o have_v the_o show_n of_o idolatry_n if_o we_o be_v not_o of_o antichrist_n religion_n yet_o we_o be_v of_o antichrist_n fashion_n so_o long_o as_o we_o have_v the_o same_o vesture_n and_o the_o same_o order_n and_o the_o same_o title_n that_o antichrist_n know_v his_o minister_n by_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o serpent_n sting_n be_v in_o his_o tail_n and_o so_o it_o seem_v 55._o for_o this_o tail_n of_o antichrist_n which_o the_o pope_n have_v leave_v behind_o he_o like_o a_o evil_a savour_n be_v unto_o we_o as_o the_o remnant_n of_o the_o chanaanite_n be_v unto_o the_o jew_n they_o shall_v have_v destroy_v all_o the_o chanaanite_n but_o because_o they_o spare_v some_o therefore_o they_o who_o they_o leave_v be_v goad_n in_o their_o side_n and_o prick_v in_o their_o eye_n that_o they_o can_v never_o be_v quiet_a for_o they_o so_o we_o shall_v have_v expel_v the_o head_n and_o the_o tail_n too_o of_o antichrist_n but_o because_o we_o do_v not_o therefore_o the_o remnant_n of_o popery_n be_v goad_n in_o our_o side_n and_o prick_v in_o our_o eye_n that_o we_o can_v yet_o be_v quiet_a for_o they_o therefore_o let_v we_o pray_v that_o he_o which_o have_v take_v away_o the_o evil_a will_v take_v away_o the_o show_n of_o evil_a too_o finis_fw-la to_o the_o reader_n to_o control_v those_o false_a copy_n of_o this_o sermon_n which_o be_v print_v without_o my_o knowledge_n patch_v as_o it_o seem_v out_o of_o some_o borrow_a note_n and_o to_o stop_v the_o print_n of_o it_o again_o without_o my_o correction_n as_o it_o be_v intend_v because_o they_o have_v get_v it_o license_v before_o although_o utter_o unwilling_a for_o some_o respect_n to_o have_v it_o publish_v which_o make_v i_o withstand_v their_o importunity_n so_o long_o yet_o see_v more_o inconvenience_n than_o i_o think_v of_o i_o suffer_v that_o which_o i_o can_v not_o hinder_v and_o now_o hope_v that_o it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o profit_v some_o by_o it_o 11._o as_o jacob_n part_v from_o benjamin_n so_o that_o which_o must_v be_v let_v be_v and_o the_o lord_n give_v thou_o a_o blessing_n with_o it_o the_o wedding_n garment_n rom._n 13._o 14._o put_v you_o on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n i_o have_v choose_v a_o text_n which_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o the_o bible_n for_o all_o scripture_n run_v upon_o christ_n like_o the_o title_n of_o a_o book_n because_o he_o be_v alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n of_o man_n salvation_n 8._o therefore_o he_o be_v figure_v in_o the_o law_n foretell_v in_o the_o prophet_n and_o fulfil_v in_o the_o gospel_n some_o place_n point_n to_o his_o divinity_n some_o to_o his_o humanity_n some_o to_o his_o kingdom_n some_o to_o his_o priesthood_n some_o to_o his_o prophecy_n some_o to_o his_o conception_n some_o to_o his_o birth_n some_o to_o his_o life_n some_o to_o his_o miracle_n some_o to_o his_o passion_n some_o to_o his_o resurrection_n some_o to_o his_o ascension_n some_o to_o his_o glorification_n all_o point_n to_o the_o saviour_n like_o john_n baptist_n 29._o when_o he_o say_v this_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o learn_v christ_n and_o learn_v all_o now_o to_o teach_v we_o how_o we_o shall_v hear_v and_o how_o we_o shall_v love_v and_o how_o we_o shall_v fear_v and_o how_o we_o shall_v believe_v and_o how_o we_o shall_v follow_v christ_n that_o we_o may_v know_v when_o we_o have_v learn_v he_o the_o apostle_n say_v put_v you_o on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o though_o this_o word_n do_v contain_v all_o our_o duty_n unto_o christ_n to_o put_v he_o on_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o level_a of_o this_o phrase_n if_o you_o mark_v how_o it_o come_v in_o for_o before_o paul_n say_v cast_v away_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n 12._o and_o put_v on_o the_o armour_n of_o light_n then_o he_o name_v the_o work_n of_o darkness_n which_o we_o shall_v cast_v off_o that_o be_v 13._o gluttony_n drunkenness_n strife_n envy_n chamber_v wantonness_n after_o he_o name_v the_o armour_n of_o light_n 14._o which_o
