purpose to kyll Abbimeleche for that that he wolde haue hadde to do with Isaackes wyfe And for that I wolde omyt many other examples god hath declared that he wyll not suffer vnpunisshed aduitrye euen in onely dauyd for that he did constuprate or defyle bethsabeam the wyfe of Dry the firste boke of the kynges the 11. Chapter Ye haue hearde welbeloued children both what God doth requyre of vs in this commaundemente and also that he wylleth no man to vse fraude in this precepte seyng that the thought of man is prone all way to euyll at al tymes Gene the 6. Chapter Therefore we ought to pray vnto god y t he wolde create in vs a cleane hearte and that he wolde sainctifie vs that our hole spirite soule and body may be kepte irrepre hensible in the commyng of oure lorde Iesus Christe the firste Epystle to the Thessalonyans the laste Chapter So be it The seuenth houshold Sermon vnto their Chyldren and famylye HEre foloweth the seuenth commaundement of god all myghtie wel beloued Children whiche is thou shalte not steale which precepte is vnderstanded many waies first as the wordes be spoken it doth prohibit that we shoulde not steale awaye other mens goodes Furthermore it doth commaund that in all maner of bargainynges we shoulde meane trewly and that we shoulde disceyue no man for to disceyue any man in bargaininge or makynge any promes we do euen as well steale euen as we should take any thing priuely out of oure neighbours cheste And this precept for those thinges doth admonishe all maner of men of all kind of occupations that they should not sel their marchaundice dearer then theye nede to be soulde or be worthy Finally thys precepte doth perteyne to an vnfaithfull housholde or familye that the maistet and mystres being both absent that utterly lyueth in Idlenesse or else is very neglygent in their office and suffereth many thynges to be loste often tymes vndone by their negligence and so to perishe whiche often tymes bringethe more hurte in one yeare to some house then other theues do to some mē which do steale eyther mony or goodes For that I wolde touche manye thynges in a fewe wordes the meaninge of this commaundemente is that in anye case we should not in any maner of matter hynder oure neighbour althoughe we coulde dysceyue oure neighboure with oute any punyshmente yet for the feare that wee beare chiefly vnto God whiche the lawe of God doth fyrste requyre of vs wee muste absteyne frome false dealynge for god althoughe theft is neyther perceyued nor taken of the Magistrates yet for all that he wyl not suffer thefte to be vnpunysshed That thynge bothe of other examples as of this may be perceiued that god did commaunde one to be burned whyche had stolen from one that was cursed Iosue 7. And god is not onely wonte to take a temporal punishment of theues but also and euerlastyng punyshment vnlesse they do repente and thus doth he threaten them for thenes murtherers shall not possesse the kyngedome of heauen saith S. Paule to the Corinthyans the firste Epistle the 6. Chapter And to the Ephesians the 4. Chapter S. Paul saith he that hathe stolen let hym steale noo more let him rather labour working w t his handes which is a good thyng that he may haue where with he mighte be liberall to the paciente that hathe neade Iesus Christe graunte that wee maye bountefully fulfil this same precepte of almyghtie god that and if we can not performe this our dutie in this thynge we haue an aduocate withe the father Iesus Christ ther is iuste and he is our satisfaction for oure synnes notte for our synnes onely but for the sinnes of all the worlde The firste Epistle of Ihon the seconde Chapter So be it The eight houshold sermon vnto their children and famylie I thynke that ye are not forgetfull of thys well beloued Chyldren that ye shoulde haue expounded to you this day the eyght commaundemente of god almyghtie And this it is Thou shalt bare no false witnes agaynst thy neighboure which cōmaundement as we maye coniecture easely of these wordes it doth forbyd us leste when we shuld be called into iudgemente that we ought to beare no witnesse eyther led withe hatred or blynded with coueteousnesse of monye and that we shuld not ouerpresse our neyghboure with false witnesse for often times our neghbour is both brought in daunger of his lyfe and beraued of his goodes by false witnesses And that god will haue this his prece●te straightly kepte of all men it is expedyente both with many other examples and with this one also that Danyell the 13 chapter doth make mention of Susan And this precepte onely doth not perteine vnto y e courtes of the lawe but also doth prohibyte that we shoulde not faine no lyes by any kynde of meanes vpon our neighboure but as Saincte Paul to the Ephesyans the 4. Chapter saith puttynge a parte all maner of lyenge Let euery man speake the truthe to his neyghboure for because we are the members of our misticall bodyes Furthermore this commaundemente doth forbyde that we shoulde not hurte the honistie or estimation of our neyghboure and that we shoulde not gyue eare vnto those whiche go aboute to put out of credet the estimatiō of our neyghbour for both doth offende both he that goeth aboute to destaine the honestie of his neyghboure and he that gyueth eare to him y t sclaūdereth his neighboure For and if ye shall heare anye sclaūderers welbeloued childrē enquire freely of them whether those thynges which with a sclaūderous tonge they do backebyte him that is absente they wil speake before any magistrat or not And if those sclaunderers denye that they wil speake before a iudge then tell them freely to theyr face and commaunde thē that they mai leaue to speake so rasshely suche thinges of their neighboure and if you wyll not tell those sclaunderers after this maner I wil shewe you an other waie which y e Lorde our sauiour Christe the son of god doth teache vs. Mathew the 18. chapter wheare he willeth that our brother which doth offend firste once or twice we should brotherlye admonishe him then if he wyl not heare our admonitions he shoulde be takē as an Ethenicke or a Publicane And if by chaunce ye shal fal into the companye of sclaunderers ye shall saie it doth not pertein vnto you to sclaunder youre brother that is absente gyue him warning of his fault firste and then if he shal contempne youre admonitions tell the congregation y t is to saie those the whiche the people haue giuen power to preache the worde of god God doth forbid sclaunderinge Leuiticus 19. Thou shalte not sclaunder thy neighboure But I shal come to the eight precepte and it is to be vnderstande briefly partly that we shoulde not oppresse in iudgemente our neighbour with false witnes partely that we shoulde not belye our neighbour and leste that
