postulat_fw-la our_o youth_n require_v other_o kind_n of_o manner_n and_o it_o be_v needless_a for_o we_o to_o do_v thus_o till_o we_o be_v grow_v in_o year_n for_o young_a man_n do_v common_o make_v account_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v long_o that_o god_n will_v allow_v they_o more_o liberty_n while_o they_o be_v young_a and_o will_v not_o require_v so_o much_o of_o they_o as_o of_o old_a man_n but_o they_o shall_v rather_o consider_v that_o which_o experience_n may_v teach_v they_o that_o they_o who_o be_v young_a be_v as_o well_o subject_a to_o death_n as_o they_o who_o be_v ancient_a like_a glass_n which_o be_v as_o brittle_a when_o it_o be_v new_o make_v as_o when_o it_o be_v old_a and_o so_o though_o they_o be_v young_a yet_o they_o may_v die_v soon_o and_o therefore_o need_v always_o to_o be_v in_o a_o readiness_n against_o god_n shall_v call_v they_o they_o shall_v consider_v that_o which_o reason_n may_v teach_v they_o that_o the_o long_o it_o be_v before_o they_o seek_v god_n the_o long_a it_o will_v be_v before_o they_o can_v find_v he_o as_o the_o further_a a_o man_n stray_v out_o of_o his_o way_n the_o long_a it_o will_v be_v before_o he_o can_v find_v the_o same_o and_o they_o shall_v consider_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n teach_v they_o that_o young_a man_n as_o well_o as_o old_a shall_v be_v call_v to_o a_o account_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n of_o all_o they_o have_v do_v and_o they_o shall_v remember_v the_o precept_n which_o the_o apostle_n give_v here_o not_o in_o the_o future_a but_o in_o the_o present_a time_n resist_v the_o devil_n not_o resist_v he_o hereafter_o if_o god_n as_o they_o imagine_v regard_v not_o what_o they_o do_v in_o their_o youthful_a day_n what_o need_v david_n to_o pray_v 10.14_o psa_fw-la 25.7_o eccles_n 12.1_o levit._fw-la 5.7_o mar._n 10.14_o remember_v not_o the_o sin_n of_o my_o youth_n or_o solomon_n to_o say_v remember_v thy_o creator_n in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n why_o do_v god_n in_o the_o old_a law_n command_v that_o young_a pigeon_n shall_v be_v offer_v unto_o he_o or_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n forbid_v that_o young_a child_n shall_v be_v keep_v from_o he_o but_o to_o show_v that_o our_o youth_n be_v to_o be_v consecrate_v to_o god_n and_o to_o be_v season_v with_o religion_n if_o they_o think_v it_o too_o soon_o to_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o to_o begin_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o their_o young_a year_n god_n will_v think_v it_o too_o late_o when_o they_o come_v to_o be_v old_a to_o entertain_v they_o to_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o as_o they_o have_v spend_v the_o great_a part_n of_o their_o time_n in_o the_o devil_n service_n so_o god_n will_v leave_v they_o to_o he_o who_o work_n they_o have_v do_v to_o pay_v they_o their_o wage_n we_o ourselves_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o take_v such_o a_o servant_n as_o be_v lame_a or_o old_a and_o so_o unfit_a or_o unable_a to_o do_v we_o service_n especial_o if_o he_o be_v one_o who_o while_n he_o be_v young_a and_o strong_a refuse_v to_o serve_v we_o and_o do_v we_o think_v that_o god_n when_o we_o have_v refuse_v to_o serve_v he_o in_o our_o young_a year_n will_v be_v content_a to_o receive_v we_o when_o we_o be_v old_a and_o impotent_a to_o be_v his_o servant_n when_o we_o have_v serve_v his_o enemy_n with_o the_o best_a of_o our_o day_n will_v god_n be_v content_a to_o have_v the_o leave_n 3_o sardus_n de_fw-fr morib_n gen._n lib._n 3_o for_o if_o we_o serve_v he_o thus_o what_o do_v we_o else_o then_o as_o some_o of_o the_o heathen_a be_v wont_a to_o do_v who_o custom_n it_o be_v that_o when_o they_o have_v eat_v the_o meat_n themselves_o they_o do_v sacrifice_v the_o bone_n unto_o their_o go_n 25._o deut._n 25._o we_o be_v forbid_v by_o god_n to_o have_v diverse_a measure_n a_o great_a and_o a_o less_o because_o they_o that_o do_v thus_o be_v a_o abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n if_o god_n count_v it_o abominable_a for_o a_o man_n to_o have_v divers_a measure_n a_o great_a for_o himself_o &_o a_o less_o for_o his_o neighbour_n or_o a_o great_a for_o his_o friend_n &_o a_o less_o for_o a_o stranger_n how_o abominable_a then_o must_v it_o need_v be_v to_o god_n when_o we_o have_v divers_a measure_n for_o god_n and_o his_o enemy_n serve_v sin_n and_o satan_n with_o the_o best_a and_o great_a part_n of_o our_o life_n and_o alot_v the_o least_o and_o the_o worst_a part_n unto_o god_n service_n and_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v we_o ever_o while_o we_o be_v young_a to_o resist_v and_o withstand_v the_o devil_n temptation_n to_o renounce_v our_o pleasure_n and_o to_o betake_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n service_n and_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o former_a part_n of_o these_o word_n resist_v the_o devil_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o reason_n which_o i_o will_v dispatch_v brief_o resist_v the_o devil_n and_o he_o will_v see_v from_o you_o the_o devil_n though_o he_o be_v fierce_a when_o he_o give_v the_o first_o assault_n yet_o where_o he_o find_v resistance_n he_o will_v break_v up_o the_o siege_n and_o fly_v like_o a_o coward_n you_o know_v when_o he_o tempt_v our_o saviour_n christ_n in_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o st._n matthew_n though_o he_o give_v the_o first_o blow_n yet_o he_o take_v the_o last_o and_o though_o he_o give_v the_o onset_n and_o set_v first_o upon_o he_o yet_o he_o be_v the_o first_o that_o sound_v the_o retreat_n and_o be_v glad_a to_o leave_v he_o but_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v whether_o the_o devil_n will_v flee_v if_o he_o be_v resist_v will_v he_o flee_v into_o hell_n and_o be_v see_v no_o more_o no_o that_o he_o will_v not_o but_o if_o he_o flee_v from_o though_o godly_a he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o take_v his_o pleasure_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o he_o will_v make_v they_o pay_v for_o it_o if_o he_o can_v prevail_v against_o our_o saviour_n he_o will_v enter_v into_o judas_n if_o he_o can_v have_v his_o will_n of_o man_n yet_o rather_o than_o fail_v he_o will_v enter_v into_o the_o swine_n 8.32_o math._n 8.32_o as_o a_o hawk_n when_o she_o can_v speed_v of_o her_o prey_n she_o will_v seize_v upon_o carrion_n but_o though_o the_o devil_n flee_v when_o we_o resist_v he_o yet_o we_o must_v not_o be_v secure_a for_o though_o he_o can_v not_o speed_v at_o the_o first_o assault_n yet_o he_o will_v come_v again_o as_o when_o he_o take_v the_o foil_n in_o tempt_v our_o saviour_n he_o depart_v from_o he_o as_o st._n luke_n say_v 20.40_o luke_n 4.13_o luke_n 20.40_o but_o for_o a_o season_n he_o be_v not_o like_o the_o sadducee_n luke_n 20._o who_o be_v so_o confound_v with_o our_o saviour_n answer_n that_o they_o never_o dare_v ask_v he_o any_o more_o question_n but_o be_v overcome_v yet_o he_o will_v come_v again_o like_o pharaoh_n who_o though_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o let_v the_o israelite_n go_v yet_o they_o be_v no_o soon_o go_v but_o he_o present_o pursue_v they_o or_o like_o the_o philistine_n judges_n 16._o who_o though_o they_o have_v often_o set_v upon_o samson_n and_o can_v not_o prevail_v yet_o they_o will_v not_o give_v he_o over_o but_o still_o assault_v he_o for_o though_o the_o devil_n do_v take_v the_o foil_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o quite_o give_v over_o but_o when_o he_o see_v that_o he_o can_v prevail_v one_o way_n he_o will_v try_v if_o he_o can_v prevail_v another_o we_o see_v when_o god_n have_v give_v he_o leave_n to_o afflict_v job_n to_o try_v whether_o he_o can_v draw_v he_o to_o impatientie_n and_o the_o devil_n have_v take_v away_o all_o his_o good_n kill_v his_o servant_n and_o destroy_v his_o child_n and_o can_v not_o in_o all_o this_o prevail_v against_o he_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o leave_v he_o thus_o but_o get_v leave_n of_o god_n to_o assault_v he_o afresh_o and_o to_o afflict_v his_o whole_a body_n with_o sore_n and_o ulcer_n for_o he_o know_v that_o our_o weakness_n and_o infirmity_n be_v such_o that_o though_o he_o can_v prevail_v one_o way_n yet_o another_o he_o may_v prevail_v against_o we_o if_o he_o can_v prevail_v against_o david_n to_o lay_v hand_n on_o saul_n the_o lord_n anoint_v yet_o he_o will_v try_v if_o he_o can_v tempt_v he_o to_o murder_n vriah_n if_o he_o can_v draw_v the_o pharisee_fw-mi to_o extortion_n adultery_n and_o the_o like_a vice_n he_o will_v go_v another_o way_n to_o work_v and_o try_v if_o he_o can_v make_v he_o proud_a of_o his_o virtue_n and_o so_o though_o he_o be_v vanquish_v in_o one_o temptation_n yet_o he_o will_v tempt_v we_o again_o &_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v secure_a but_o after_o that_o one_o temptation_n be_v past_a we_o must_v expect_v and_o prepare_v ourselves_o for_o another_o yet_o this_o be_v our_o
