say_v i_o that_o we_o be_v resolve_v hereof_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v too_o blockish_a if_o we_o be_v not_o touch_v yet_o more_o to_o the_o quick_a and_o set_v on_o fire_n with_o this_o carefulness_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o and_o therewithal_o continue_v in_o the_o same_o howbeit_o saint_n paul_n speak_v here_o express_o of_o the_o saint_n or_o faithful_a but_o yet_o be_v that_o no_o impediment_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o pray_v general_o for_o all_o man_n for_o the_o wretched_a unbeliever_n and_o the_o ignorant_a sort_n have_v great_a need_n too_o be_v sew_v for_o unto_o god_n for_o behold_v they_o be_v in_o the_o high_a way_n too_o destruction_n if_o we_o see_v a_o beast_n at_o the_o point_n to_o perish_v we_o will_v have_v pity_n of_o it_o and_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v when_o we_o see_v a_o soul_n in_o peril_n which_o be_v so_o precious_a before_o god_n as_o he_o have_v show_v in_o that_o he_o have_v ransom_v they_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o

so_o then_o saint_n paul_n meaning_n in_o this_o text_n be_v not_o that_o we_o shall_v let_v the_o wretched_a unbeliever_n alone_o without_o care_n of_o they_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v pray_v general_o for_o all_o man_n howbeit_o he_o show_v we_o therewithal_o that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o special_a care_n of_o those_o who_o god_n have_v knit_v unto_o we_o by_o a_o straight_a bond_n likewise_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o almesedeede_n 1●_o his_o intent_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v do_v too_o all_o man_n without_o exception_n which_o have_v need_v but_o yet_o he_o add_v that_o we_o must_v special_o succour_v they_o that_o be_v of_o the_o household_n of_o faith_n even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o our_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n for_o the_o spiritual_a brotherhood_n which_o god_n have_v set_v among_o we_o ought_v too_o touch_v we_o the_o more_o and_o too_o make_v the_o church_n of_o god_n too_o come_v before_o our_o eye_n and_o into_o our_o remembrance_n as_o oft_o as_o we_o pray_v and_o these_o word_n our_o father_n ought_v too_o teach_v we_o too_o make_v our_o prayer_n common_a for_o none_o of_o we_o can_v say_v my_o father_n alone_o of_o himself_o but_o we_o call_v he_o we_o too_o show_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v such_o care_n of_o ourselves_o as_o to_o forget_v they_o that_o belong_v unto_o we_o and_o be_v link_v to_o we_o with_o so_o near_o a_o knot_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v pray_v for_o the_o saint_n now_o be_v this_o well_o print_v in_o our_o heart_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o we_o shall_v be_v well_o wake_v too_o pray_v too_o our_o god_n without_o end_n or_o cease_v for_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o state_n and_o plight_n of_o the_o church_n in_o these_o day_n although_o our_o lord_n give_v we_o some_o rest_n yet_o be_v our_o poor_a brethren_n torment_v by_o tyrant_n and_o by_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o faith_n some_o be_v fain_o too_o flee_v some_o have_v their_o good_n take_v from_o they_o many_o be_v thrust_v into_o prison_n and_o other_o some_o be_v burn_v at_o the_o stake_n all_o these_o poor_a soul_n be_v in_o unquietness_n and_o put_v too_o some_o new_a terror_n every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v as_o terrible_a manace_v and_o threaten_v as_o may_v be_v we_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n drive_v all_o those_o forward_a with_o outrageous_a fury_n which_o will_v abolish_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o see_v what_o scatter_n be_v make_v by_o the_o stumble_a block_n that_o satan_n thrust_v in_o by_o his_o champion_n we_o see_v how_o a_o great_a sort_n seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o too_o put_v the_o gospel_n too_o all_o shame_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n the_o poor_a servant_n of_o god_n which_o employ_v themselves_o in_o his_o service_n be_v trouble_v and_o vex_v by_o all_o mean_n then_o if_o we_o gather_v together_o all_o the_o misery_n and_o adversity_n wheretoo_o the_o church_n be_v subject_a and_o consider_v well_o the_o distress_n of_o every_o of_o our_o brethren_n must_v it_o not_o needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v dull_a than_o brut_v beast_n if_o we_o be_v not_o move_v too_o pray_v unto_o god_n yea_o even_o with_o a_o right_a perseverance_n in_o the_o same_o for_o though_o i_o be_v at_o my_o ease_n too_o day_n there_o be_v many_o thousand_o in_o great_a perplexity_n and_o i_o show_v well_o that_o i_o cut_v of_o myself_o as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v from_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n if_o i_o pity_v not_o the_o member_n too_o who_o i_o be_o link_v not_o without_o cause_n therefore_o do_v saint_n paul_n set_v all_o the_o saint_n here_o afore_o we_o when_o be_v intend_v too_o inflame_v we_o the_o better_a too_o a_o right_a dispozed_a mind_n in_o pray_v and_o too_o continue_v throughout_o in_o the_o same_o and_o thereupon_o he_o require_v also_o that_o man_n shall_v pray_v for_o he_o you_o shall_v pray_v for_o i_o also_o say_v he_o that_o god_n give_v i_o boldness_n in_o open_v my_o mouth_n so_o as_o i_o may_v utter_v the_o secret_a of_o the_o gospel_n according_o when_o saint_n paul_n commend_v himself_o too_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o neighbour_n thereby_o he_o show_v well_o in_o what_o humility_n we_o ought_v too_o walk_v for_o he_o do_v not_o counterfeit_v in_o exhort_v the_o ephesian_n too_o such_o pray_v he_o protest_v before_o god_n and_o his_o angel_n that_o he_o have_v need_n of_o it_o but_o now_o let_v we_o compare_v ourselves_o with_o saint_n paul_n what_o man_n be_v of_o such_o abilttie_n that_o he_o can_v forbear_v too_o be_v succour_v by_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o neighbour_n when_o saint_n paul_n exempt_v not_o himself_o from_o it_o now_o then_o let_v every_o man_n in_o his_o pray_n unto_o god_n desire_n too_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o the_o prayer_n that_o be_v make_v throughout_o the_o church_n 18._o both_o general_o and_o particular_o in_o deed_n this_o promise_n shall_v always_o stand_v true_a that_o god_n will_v be_v near_o at_o hand_n too_o all_o such_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o jonas_n fail_v not_o too_o be_v succour_v of_o god_n 2._o though_o he_o be_v in_o the_o whale_n belly_n now_o therefore_o when_o we_o be_v forsake_v of_o man_n when_o we_o be_v as_o good_a as_o dead_a and_o the_o remembrance_n of_o we_o be_v as_o good_a as_o bury_v yet_o will_v not_o god_n cease_v to_o regard_v we_o and_o too_o cast_v his_o eye_n upon_o we_o too_o succour_v we_o according_a too_o this_o say_n that_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n be_v always_o upon_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o 18._o and_o his_o ear_n open_v too_o such_o as_o repair_v unto_o he_o notwithstanding_o too_o the_o intent_n too_o humble_v we_o the_o better_a 16._o our_o lord_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o have_v need_v one_o of_o another_o help_n and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o intercommon_v among_o we_o and_o beside_o this_o there_o be_v also_o another_o reason_n which_o be_v that_o he_o will_v keep_v our_o charity_n occupy_v wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o show_v both_o by_o our_o almesdeed_n and_o by_o our_o counsel_n and_o by_o all_o other_o help_n that_o none_o of_o we_o be_v give_v too_o himself_o nor_o too_o he_o too_o own_o private_a profit_n but_o that_o after_o as_o god_n have_v link_v we_o together_o every_o of_o we_o covet_v too_o succour_v our_o member_n and_o too_o communicate_v together_o in_o our_o prayer_n &_o supplication_n for_o our_o commend_v one_o of_o we_o of_o another_o after_o that_o manner_n unto_o god_n be_v the_o chief_a duty_n of_o charity_n and_o therefore_o it_o cause_v saint_n paul_n too_o desire_v the_o ephesian_n express_o too_o pray_v for_o he_o now_o if_o any_o man_n allege_v that_o that_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o unbelief_n for_o if_o this_o promise_n suffyze_v we_o not_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v obtain_v his_o own_o request_n be_v it_o not_o a_o point_n of_o distrust_n the_o answer_v thereunto_o be_v easy_a for_o whereas_o god_n say_v that_o he_o will_v have_v pity_n upon_o all_o such_o as_o seek_v it_o at_o his_o hand_n he_o mean_v not_o too_o disannul_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o command_v we_o in_o so_o many_o other_o text_n which_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v mindful_a one_o of_o another_o furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o in_o follow_v god_n word_n we_o can_v never_o be_v blame_v of_o misbeleef_n for_o how_o come_v it_o too_o pass_v that_o man_n fall_v to_o misbelief_n but_o by_o pass_v
have_v vengeance_n ready_a for_o all_o such_o as_o ●et_v themselves_o against_o our_o doctrine_n yea_o though_o they_o be_v the_o high_a in_o the_o world_n yet_o if_o they_o set_v up_o their_o bristle_n against_o god_n and_o de●pyze_v he_o they_o shall_v not_o escape_v the_o damnation_n that_o be_v threaten_v they_o at_o leastwise_o when_o the_o faithful_a have_v once_o perform_v their_o

and_o what_o then_o shall_v be_v do_v when_o god_n come_v not_o only_o too_o will_v we_o too_o yield_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o but_o also_o too_o offer_v himself_o too_o we_o and_o will_v have_v we_o too_o possess_v he_o and_o all_o his_o good_n in_o the_o person_n of_o jesus_n christ_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o if_o we_o refuse_v such_o grace_n when_o he_o use_v such_o kindness_n towards_o we_o must_v not_o horrible_a damnation_n light_v upon_o so_o villainous_a pride_n and_o scornfulness_n when_o man_n vouchsafe_v not_o too_o receive_v he_o even_o he_o which_o not_o only_o procure_v their_o salvation_n but_o also_o create_v they_o and_o by_o who_o they_o be_v maintain_v then_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o mark_v well_o this_o doctrine_n wherein_o peace_n be_v speak_v of_o too_o the_o end_n we_o provoke_v not_o god_n any_o more_o ne_o turn_v our_o bread_n into_o bane_n and_o our_o meat_n into_o mortal_a poison_n but_o that_o we_o may_v be_v quicken_v true_o by_o the_o grace_n which_o god_n offer_v we_o daily_o and_o for_o that_o cause_n saint_n paul_n conclude_v that_o they_o which_o be_v so_o touch_v with_o god_n spirit_n to_o obey_v the_o gospel_n simple_o and_o substantial_o be_v no_o more_o stranger_n but_o rather_o fellowcit●zens_n with_o the_o saint_n and_o god_n household_n folk_n and_o this_o tend_v still_o too_o the_o end_n that_o i_o have_v note_v afore_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o god_n name_n shall_v be_v glorify_v as_o it_o deserve_v and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o step_v light_o too_o he_o as_o we_o be_v wont_v too_o do_v for_o we_o think_v too_o discharge_v ourselves_o with_o one_o word_n by_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o redeemer_n but_o let_v we_o always_o call_v to_o remembrance_n what_o we_o have_v be_v and_o in_o what_o take_v we_o be_v till_o jesus_n christ_n draw_v we_o out_o of_o the_o dungeon_n of_o death_n for_o the_o word_n stranger_n import_v that_o which_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o namely_o that_o before_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v the_o gentile_n be_v without_o hope_n of_o salvation_n cut_v of_o from_o god_n favour_n without_o promise_n without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n insomuch_o that_o although_o they_o live_v here_o although_o they_o be_v feed_v and_o sustain_v by_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o god_n give_v they_o although_o they_o enjoy_v the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n yet_o nevertheless_o they_o be_v without_o god_n and_o at_o the_o same_o point_n be_v all_o unbeliever_n so_o then_o s._n paul_n reherce_v what_o our_o redemption_n be_v when_o jesus_n christ_n come_v too_o find_v we_o &_o reach_v we_o his_o hand_n to_o guide_v we_o too_o god_n his_o father_n be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v learn_v to●_n yield_v he_o the_o whole_a praise_n of_o our_o salvation_n hereupon_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v citizen_n of_o heaven_n companion_n with_o the_o angel_n of_o paradise_n and_o fellow_n with_o the_o holy_a king_n and_o prophet_n when_o there_o be_v any_o talk_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n or_o of_o any_o of_o the_o saint_n and_o martyr_n we_o have_v they_o in_o admiration_n and_o good_a reason_n we_o shall_v so_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o regard_v not_o wherefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n set_v they_o before_o we_o the_o papist_n make_v idol_n of_o they_o and_o too_o their_o seem_n they_o have_v honour_v s._n paul_n and_o s._n peter_n well_o when_o they_o have_v deck_v they_o with_o god_n feather_n but_o contrariwise_o it_o be_v say_v h●ere_o that_o when_o god_n set_v forth_o the_o grace_n that_o he_o give_v unto_o they_o it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v bethink_v we_o of_o the_o benefit_n that_o he_o bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o that_o he_o muster_v we_o in_o their_o band_n according_a whereunto_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 1._o xii_o to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v that_o they_o may_v to_o be_v unto_o we_o as_o a_o great_a &_o thick_a cloud_n of_o witness_n that_o we_o may_v follow_v their_o example_n the_o more_o cheerful_o and_o walk_v on_o in_o the_o way_n that_o they_o show_v we_o again_o when_o god_n have_v make_v we_o too_o perceive_v the_o inestimable_a good_a which_o he_o do_v we_o in_o match_v we_o with_o the_o prophet_n apostle_n martyr_n and_o all_o the_o faithful_a let_v we_o go_v yet_o further_o and_o consider_v that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o fellowcitizen_n

that_o be_v too_o say_v we_o be_v so_o i●●yghtened_v that_o god_n light_n be_v in_o we_o namely_o because_o we_o be_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o and_o

because_o god_n have_v ordain_v they_o and_o there_o be_v no_o pre-eminence_n but_o of_o he_o as_o saint_n paul_n declare_v to_o the_o roman_n it_o be_v true_a that_o there_o he_o speak_v express_o of_o prince_n and_o magistrate_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o extend_v too_o all_o authority_n as_o too_o that_o which_o parent_n have_v over_o their_o child_n husband_n over_o wife_n and_o

god_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n will_v needs_o remove_v all_o order_n that_o he_o have_v set_v among_o we_o all_o that_o we_o speak_v with_o our_o mouth_n be_v but_o hypocrisy_n therefore_o we_o must_v give_v a_o proof_n of_o our_o humility_n too_o godward_n by_o our_o willing_a and_o easy_a bear_n of_o man_n yoke_n which_o he_o have_v lay_v upon_o we_o as_o it_o be_v his_o own_o hand_n let_v that_o be_v for_o one_o point_n now_o as_o i_o say_v this_o comprehend_v all_o subjection_n as_o well_o of_o people_n towards_o prince_n and_o magistrate_n of_o child_n towards_o their_o parent_n and_o of_o wife_n towards_o their_o husband_n as_o also_o of_o servant_n towards_o their_o master_n and_o when_o we_o once_o have_v that_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a for_o we_o too_o withstand_v all_o

who_o have_v give_v he_o more_o authority_n than_o i_o but_o see_v god_n have_v tell_v we_o that_o he_o will_v have_v it_o so_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o hold_v our_o peace_n therefore_o if_o we_o be_v

for_o if_o a_o master_n have_v a_o great_a multitude_n of_o folk_n in_o his_o house_n he_o shall_v be_v of_o sufficient_a authority_n too_o appoint_v who_o he_o list_v too_o have_v the_o oversight_n

such_o as_o he_o have_v appoint_v without_o make_v any_o reply_n for_o what_o can_v it_o boot_n too_o say_v the_o contrary_a therefore_o as_o i_o say_v let_v we_o print_v this_o counsel_n of_o saint_n paul_n thorough_o in_o our_o heart_n that_o when_o we_o do_v our_o duty_n willing_o and_o unfeigned_o towards_o those_o who_o god_n have_v set_v in_o authority_n over_o we_o we_o serve_v god_n

among_o man_n yet_o be_v it_o nothing_o worth_a before_o god_n and_o why_o for_o god_n will_v be_v honour_v at_o our_o hand_n he_o will_v have_v man_n too_o enjoy_v their_o right_a in_o such_o wise_n as_o neither_o he_o be_v forget_v nor_o they_o as_o it_o be_v deface_v therefore_o if_o we_o will_v but_o only_o obey_v man_n and_o despise_v the_o thing_n which_o god_n will_v have_v too_o be_v as_o

we_o face_n to_o face_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v first_o of_o all_o not_o to_o sor●_n in_o the_o air_n when_o the_o receive_n of_o god_n word_n come_v in_o question_n let_v we_o be_v content_v

saint_n paul_n show_v that_o there_o be_v very_o good_a agreement_n between_o the_o law_n the_o prophet_n and_o the_o gospel_n in_o deed_n we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o that_o the_o use_n of_o the_o

we_o ought_v too_o have_v no_o more_o but_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o that_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v superfluous_a it_o be_v true_a indeed_o 3._o that_o all_o perfection_n of_o wisdom_n be_v
