who_o have_v power_n judicial_a to_o expound_v the_o scripture_n indeed_o their_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o church_n be_v this_o judge_n and_o that_o we_o must_v consult_v at_o her_o mouth_n for_o

of_o god_n signify_v second_o the_o manner_n how_o god_n be_v tempt_v and_o three_o god_n the_o cause_n and_o root_v thereof_o for_o the_o first_o to_o tempt_v god_n signify_v to_o make_v trial_n and_o experience_n of_o god_n and_o to_o prove_v whether_o he_o be_v so_o true_a just_a merciful_a provident_a and_o powerful_a as_o his_o word_n report_v he_o to_o be_v thus_o do_v the_o israelite_n often_o tempt_v god_n as_o the_o lord_n say_v 9_o when_o your_o father_n tempt_v i_o prove_v i_o and_o see_v my_o work_n which_o latter_a word_n show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o tempt_v god_n even_o to_o seek_v to_o have_v proof_n by_o his_o work_n whether_o he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o his_o word_n say_v he_o be_v if_o any_o shall_v say_v we_o be_v command_v to_o taste_v and_o see_v how_o

prove_v he_o but_o yet_o in_o their_o way_n of_o obedience_n in_o provide_v for_o his_o sanctuary_n according_a to_o his_o ordinance_n therefore_o we_o must_v know_v for_o the_o second_o point_n that_o every_o trial_n of_o god_n be_v not_o simple_o evil_a but_o that_o which_o be_v needless_a when_o without_o warrant_n from_o his_o word_n we_o presume_v upon_o he_o beyond_o the_o mean_n of_o his_o ordinary_a providence_n three_o the_o root_n of_o this_o sin_n be_v a_o unbelieve_a heart_n whereby_o a_o man_n doubt_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n word_n of_o his_o power_n presence_n and_o

not_o content_v themselves_o with_o god_n present_a providence_n the_o root_n &_o ground_n whereof_o be_v set_v down_o vers_fw-la 22._o because_o they_o believe_v not_o in_o god_n and_o trust_v not_o in_o his_o help_n when_o a_o man_n doubt_n of_o the_o fidelity_n of_o his_o servant_n he_o will_v lay_v something_o in_o his_o way_n as_o a_o piece_n of_o silver_n his_o purse_n etc._n etc._n to_o try_v he_o withal_o so_o when_o a_o man_n begin_v to_o doubt_v of_o god_n goodness_n and_o fidelity_n towards_o he_o he_o will_v easy_o be_v bring_v to_o make_v needless_a trial_n of_o he_o by_o some_o work_n of_o god_n beside_o his_o ordinary_a providence_n the_o meaning_n than_o be_v this_o thou_o shall_v not_o tempt_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n that_o be_v thou_o shall_v not_o make_v any_o needless_a trial_n of_o god_n goodness_n mercy_n power_n or_o providence_n from_o a_o distrustful_a heart_n in_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o word_n here_o yet_o further_o for_o our_o instruction_n we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n be_v tempt_v five_o way_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v manifest_a way_n first_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v appoint_v unto_o god_n either_o the_o time_n when_o the_o

ps._n 37._o 5._o second_o god_n be_v tempt_v when_o man_n require_v a_o sign_n at_o his_o hand_n thus_o the_o pharisy_n tempt_v christ_n matt._n 12._o 38._o master_n we_o will_v see_v a_o sign_n of_o

refuse_v to_o embrace_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n because_o they_o can_v see_v the_o minister_n thereof_o to_o confirm_v the_o same_o by_o miracle_n thus_o do_v many_o papist_n plead_v against_o our_o religion_n embrace_v rather_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n because_o it_o be_v confirm_v unto_o they_o by_o lie_v wonder_n not_o consider_v that_o the_o truth_n which_o we_o

in_o god_n church_n must_v go_v together_o with_o the_o outward_a element_n else_o it_o be_v nothing_o three_o for_o the_o apostle_n creed_n they_o have_v it_o in_o word_n but_o they_o deny_v it_o in_o deed_n for_o though_o they_o say_v they_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n and_o in_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o in_o effect_n they_o deny_v both_o god_n and_o christ._n for_o the_o god_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v a_o idol_n god_n and_o the_o christ_n of_o the_o papist_n a_o false_a christ_n as_o we_o have_v show_v in_o handle_v of_o the_o creed_n four_o for_o the_o scripture_n we_o must_v know_v the_o word_n of_o god_n stand_v not_o in_o bare_a word_n and_o letter_n but_o in_o the_o true_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n now_o though_o they_o have_v the_o book_n of_o scripture_n yet_o in_o sundry_a main_a ground_n of_o religion_n they_o overthrow_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n again_o they_o keep_v the_o scripture_n as_o a_o lantern_n hold_v a_o candle_n not_o for_o itself_o but_o for_o passenger_n so_o be_v the_o scripture_n with_o they_o not_o for_o

their_o curse_a doctrine_n last_o for_o their_o plea_n to_o be_v the_o mother_n church_n we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o the_o ancient_a church_n of_o rome_n and_o the_o strumpet_n that_o now_o be_v the_o ancient_a church_n of_o rome_n to_o who_o paul_n write_v be_v a_o true_a and_o famous_a church_n and_o a_o mother_n church_n but_o she_o be_v now_o dead_a and_o bury_v and_o the_o now_o

18._o 4._o second_o use_v in_o that_o christ_n be_v bring_v to_o jerusalem_fw-la that_o holy_a city_n there_o to_o be_v tempt_v we_o learn_v that_o no_o holiness_n of_o place_n on_o earth_n can_v

of_o the_o temple_n and_o whether_o of_o these_o it_o be_v we_o can_v certain_o define_v but_o this_o we_o must_v hold_v that_o it_o be_v some_o dangerous_a steep_a down_o place_n on_o some_o corner_n of_o the_o temple_n or_o on_o the_o battlement_n from_o which_o a_o man_n may_v easy_o cast_v himself_o whereby_o we_o see_v the_o devil_n will_v omit_v no_o advantage_n that_o may_v further_o his_o

thy_o foot_n against_o a_o stone_n these_o word_n contain_v the_o second_o main_a point_n in_o this_o conflict_n to_o wit_n satan_n assault_n upon_o christ_n wherein_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v first_o his_o temptation_n then_o the_o reason_n whereby_o he_o do_v enforce_v it_o his_o temptation_n here_o be_v frame_v as_o the_o former_a be_v in_o a_o kind_n of_o reason_v thus_o if_o thou_o be_v the_o

thyself_o in_o safety_n without_o all_o hurt_n in_o the_o fall_n the_o drift_n of_o satan_n in_o this_o temptation_n be_v to_o bring_v our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o a_o vain_a confidence_n in_o his_o

answer_n of_o christ_n will_v easy_o appear_v presumption_n and_o hereby_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o one_o main_a drift_n of_o satan_n in_o his_o ordinary_a temptation_n in_o god_n church_n be_v to_o carry_v man_n to_o presumption_n and_o vain_a confidence_n in_o the_o love_n favour_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n this_o appear_v by_o the_o strange_a reason_n for_o liberty_n in_o sin_n which_o
