confess_v that_o our_o chief_a desire_n be_v willing_o &_o unfeigned_o to_o honour_n god_n &_o that_o we_o can_v suffer_v any_o reproachful_o to_o abuse_v his_o majesty_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n upon_o this_o place_n which_o we_o ought_v at_o this_o day_n with_o all_o diligence_n to_o observe_v albeit_o it_o be_v precise_o give_v in_o commandment_n to_o the_o jew_n for_o in_o substance_n &_o truth_n it_o belong_v unto_o we_o for_o as_o in_o old_a time_n our_o lord_n bring_v this_o people_n out_o of_o egypt_n so_o at_o this_o day_n have_v he_o draw_v we_o out_o of_o the_o gulf_n of_o hell_n &_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o eternal_a death_n &_o from_o those_o deep_a and_o dark_a dungeon_n wherein_o we_o be_v plunge_v to_o bring_v we_o into_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n have_v redeem_v and_o purchase_v we_o to_o himself_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o well-beloved_a son_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n now_o let_v we_o cast_v ourselves_o down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledge_v our_o fault_n pray_v he_o to_o make_v we_o feel_v they_o better_o than_o we_o have_v do_v that_o labour_v to_o reform_v ourselves_o more_o and_o more_o to_o his_o justice_n we_o fight_v daily_o against_o the_o lust_n and_o desire_n of_o our_o flesh_n and_o continue_v so_o long_o in_o this_o combat_n until_o he_o have_v full_o free_v we_o from_o it_o and_o reform_v we_o unto_o his_o image_n in_o the_o which_o we_o be_v first_o create_v that_o he_o will_v grant_v this_o grace_n not_o only_o to_o we_o but_o to_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n etc_n etc_n the._n 7._o sermon_n wherein_o it_o be_v entreat_v of_o the_o second_o table_n deut._n chap._n 5._o 16_o honour_n thy_o father_n and_o thy_o mother_n as_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n have_v command_v thou_o that_o thy_o day_n may_v be_v prolong_v and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v well_o with_o thou_o in_o the_o land_n which_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n give_v thou_o we_o be_v now_o come_v unto_o the_o second_o table_n of_o the_o law_n wherein_o god_n show_v we_o how_o we_o ought_v all_o to_o live_v here_o together_o for_o as_o it_o have_v be_v above_o touch_v there_o be_v two_o principal_a thing_n require_v in_o our_o life_n the_o one_o that_o we_o serve_v god_n pure_o and_o sincere_o the_o other_o that_o we_o live_v with_o man_n in_o all_o integrity_n and_o uprightness_n render_v unto_o every_o one_o that_o which_o appertain_v and_o belong_v unto_o he_o now_o as_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o all_o that_o which_o concern_v man_n so_o it_o behove_v that_o in_o the_o first_o and_o principal_a place_n the_o rule_n of_o honour_v god_n as_o we_o ought_v shall_v be_v give_v and_o this_o be_v handle_v &_o dispatch_v in_o the_o first_o table_n here_o then_o god_n begin_v to_o declare_v unto_o we_o in_o what_o sort_n our_o life_n ought_v to_o be_v order_v if_o we_o will_v apply_v ourselves_o unto_o the_o duty_n we_o owe_v unto_o man_n now_o we_o have_v also_o declare_v that_o god_n require_v no_o honour_n of_o we_o for_o any_o need_n he_o have_v of_o it_o or_o for_o any_o profit_n it_o bring_v unto_o he_o but_o it_o be_v for_o our_o welfare_n and_o salvation_n that_o he_o require_v it_o so_o then_o he_o will_v prove_v our_o obedience_n and_o the_o love_n we_o bear_v he_o when_o he_o command_v we_o to_o walk_v in_o all_o equity_n and_o uprightness_n with_o our_o neighbour_n and_o that_o we_o live_v together_o in_o such_o concord_n and_o fellowship_n that_o any_o one_o be_v not_o give_v unto_o himself_o but_o that_o we_o communicate_v together_o and_o that_o every_o one_o according_a to_o his_o ability_n and_o power_n to_o do_v well_o employ_v and_o force_v himself_o thereunto_o this_o say_v i_o be_v the_o proof_n which_o god_n make_v to_o know_v whether_o we_o worship_v he_o unfeigned_o and_o from_o our_o heart_n for_o we_o may_v make_v many_o fair_a countenance_n and_o use_v great_a ceremony_n but_o god_n shall_v not_o content_v himself_o with_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v 23._o that_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o the_o law_n be_v justice_n judgement_n uprightness_n faith_n which_o word_n import_v here_o fidelity_n or_o faithfulness_n therefore_o when_o we_o live_v with_o man_n without_o hypocrisy_n and_o dissimulation_n when_o we_o be_v not_o give_v to_o our_o subtle_a sleight_n nor_o malicious_a practice_n we_o study_v to_o minister_v unto_o and_o to_o serve_v every_o one_o in_o his_o commodity_n we_o maintain_v right_a &_o resist_v wrong_a as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o we_o lo_o the_o chief_a and_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o law_n not_o that_o the_o service_n of_o god_n ought_v in_o the_o mean_a while_n to_o be_v forget_v or_o that_o it_o be_v of_o less_o importance_n but_o because_o it_o be_v unpossible_a that_o man_n acquit_v themselves_o in_o their_o duty_n towards_o their_o neighbour_n except_o they_o be_v lead_v hereunto_o by_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n now_o let_v we_o handle_v this_o commandment_n last_o recite_v which_o concern_v the_o honour_n of_o father_n and_o mother_n and_o here_o although_o express_o mention_v be_v make_v of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o mother_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o god_o mean_v to_o deliver_v a_o general_a doctrine_n of_o have_v all_o superiority_n in_o honour_n for_o grant_v we_o which_o must_v needs_o be_v confess_v that_o the_o law_n contain_v a_o perfect_a rule_n of_o doctrine_n wherein_o nothing_o be_v want_v and_o this_o which_o we_o have_v say_v must_v needs_o be_v so_o for_o if_o it_o have_v not_o touch_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o duty_n we_o owe_v to_o other_o superior_n as_o prince_n and_o magistrate_n and_o those_o which_o have_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n if_o it_o have_v deliver_v nothing_o concern_v master_n it_o shall_v have_v some_o default_n in_o it_o therefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o god_n have_v command_v that_o all_o they_o which_o be_v in_o any_o degree_n of_o honour_n and_o authority_n be_v honour_v and_o obey_v moreover_o see_v all_o preeminence_n and_o superiority_n come_v from_o god_n and_o that_o this_o order_n be_v establish_v and_o appoint_v by_o he_o without_o the_o which_o the_o world_n can_v not_o stand_v what_o may_v be_v think_v if_o god_n make_v no_o account_n of_o this_o when_o he_o give_v forth_o a_o certain_a form_n of_o live_v well_o and_o in_o all_o holiness_n neither_o ought_v we_o to_o account_v it_o strange_a that_o under_o one_o special_a kind_n of_o obedience_n to_o be_v yield_v to_o all_o superior_n the_o whole_a be_v comprise_v for_o we_o have_v already_o touch_v how_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o law_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v it_o more_o plain_o hereafter_o and_o this_o be_v not_o do_v because_o god_n can_v speak_v in_o no_o other_o manner_n but_o for_o our_o better_a profit_n and_o instruction_n for_o we_o know_v that_o albeit_o man_n desire_v to_o seem_v subtle_a and_o sharp_a witted_a yet_o cease_v they_o not_o always_o to_o cover_v themselves_o with_o the_o buckler_n of_o ignorance_n if_o we_o may_v espy_v that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n press_v we_o over_o sore_o we_o will_v feign_v have_v some_o excuse_n to_o exempt_v ourselves_o from_o the_o subjection_n of_o it_o and_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v not_o apt_a and_o convenient_a to_o instruct_v the_o rude_a and_o ignorant_a many_o will_v allege_v that_o they_o be_v no_o great_a clerk_n that_o they_o never_o go_v to_o school_n it_o shall_v seem_v then_o that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n may_v not_o bind_v they_o but_o when_o we_o see_v that_o god_n abase_v himself_o to_o our_o rudeness_n and_o that_o he_o speak_v gross_o according_a to_o our_o capacity_n this_o take_v from_o we_o all_o excuse_n this_o remove_v all_o pretence_n whatsoever_o and_o every_o one_o be_v bind_v to_o order_n himself_o aright_o and_o we_o all_o must_v confess_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o which_o hinder_v we_o from_o do_v our_o duty_n but_o that_o we_o be_v rebellious_a against_o god_n and_o will_v not_o bear_v his_o yoke_n lo_o why_o under_o one_o kind_n god_n comprehend_v the_o whole_a that_o he_o may_v instruct_v &_o train_v we_o up_o like_o young_a child_n which_o be_v not_o capable_a nor_o apt_a to_o be_v teach_v after_o some_o absolute_a and_o perfect_a manner_n this_o therefore_o be_v the_o true_a and_o natural_a sense_n of_o the_o place_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o for_o as_o god_n deliver_v the_o ten_o commandment_n or_o word_n as_o he_o call_v they_o so_o he_o annex_v also_o the_o exposition_n of_o they_o to_o the_o end_n nothing_o may_v be_v obscure_a and_o that_o man_n may_v not_o doubt_v or_o dispute_v of_o that_o which_o

it_o be_v certain_a when_o he_o punish_v they_o this_o shall_v not_o be_v without_o good_a cause_n but_o we_o shall_v always_o know_v that_o he_o proceed_v herein_o in_o all_o equity_n &_o justice_n as_o a_o upright_o judge_v by_o great_a reason_n they_o which_o be_v elder_a &_o further_o strike_v in_o year_n be_v punish_v as_o not_o innocent_a for_o one_o shall_v find_v they_o by_o many_o degree_n more_o faulty_a and_o so_o as_o concern_v the_o place_n of_o ezechiel_n the_o case_n be_v clear_a that_o god_n punish_v not_o the_o innocent_a child_n for_o the_o transgression_n of_o their_o father_n for_o the_o fault_n shall_v be_v also_o find_v in_o themselves_o as_o for_o this_o when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o punish_v the_o iniquity_n of_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n let_v we_o consider_v how_o this_o be_v do_v and_o then_o this_o hard_a knot_n shall_v be_v easy_o untie_v first_o then_o let_v we_o know_v that_o god_n owe_v we_o nothing_o and_o that_o if_o he_o bestow_v any_o benefit_n upon_o we_o this_o be_v altogether_o of_o his_o mere_a liberality_n not_o that_o he_o be_v any_o thing_n behold_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n if_o he_o will_v use_v his_o rigour_n towards_o we_o he_o may_v leave_v we_o in_o condemnation_n as_o we_o be_v let_v god_n only_o withdraw_v his_o mercy_n and_o show_v himself_o judge_v over_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o sure_o we_o shall_v all_o perish_v there_o be_v no_o remedy_n little_a and_o great_a father_n and_o child_n without_o exception_n i_o say_v we_o be_v all_o condemn_v if_o god_o draw_v we_o not_o out_o of_o the_o curse_n in_o which_o we_o be_v and_o that_o by_o his_o free_a mercy_n without_o the_o least_o occasion_n of_o be_v bind_v unto_o we_o so_o now_o see_v god_o may_v bring_v we_o all_o to_o destruction_n if_o it_o please_v he_o to_o use_v his_o goodness_n and_o clemency_n towards_o some_o if_o he_o call_v they_o to_o himself_o if_o he_o deliver_v they_o from_o this_o deep_a dungeon_n of_o damnation_n in_o which_o they_o be_v may_v any_o one_o accuse_v he_o for_o this_o may_v any_o one_o reprove_v he_o herein_o the_o least_o that_o may_v be_v no._n for_o our_o eye_n must_v not_o be_v evil_a if_o he_o of_o his_o goodness_n take_v pity_n and_o compassion_n of_o his_o creature_n and_o although_o he_o use_v not_o the_o like_a measure_n towards_o all_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o must_v have_v our_o mouth_n close_v up_o or_o rather_o wide_a open_a not_o to_o murmur_v but_o to_o confess_v that_o all_o which_o he_o do_v be_v in_o equity_n and_o justice_n although_o it_o surmount_v our_o sense_n and_o reason_n for_o we_o comprehend_v not_o always_o the_o reason_n why_o god_o dispose_v so_o of_o man_n and_o yet_o must_v we_o lay_v aside_o our_o prate_n and_o learn_v to_o reverence_n and_o adore_v god_n in_o his_o judgement_n when_o they_o shall_v be_v over_o high_a for_o we_o over_o wonderful_a over_o secret_a how_o ever_o it_o be_v let_v this_o general_a rule_n abide_v certain_a that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n may_v leave_v we_o in_o our_o destruction_n wherein_o we_o be_v if_o so_o it_o please_v he_o and_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o whole_a world_n shall_v perish_v but_o because_o it_o please_v he_o to_o show_v himself_o gentle_a and_o pitiful_a not_o towards_o all_o but_o towards_o a_o part_n see_v what_o discern_v the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o now_o hereupon_o he_o leave_v they_o as_o it_o seem_v good_a unto_o he_o in_o the_o curse_n wherein_o they_o be_v bear_v and_o if_o one_o demand_v why_o god_n use_v his_o mercy_n towards_o some_o when_o on_o other_o he_o execute_v his_o severity_n it_o be_v certain_a the_o first_o and_o principal_a cause_n be_v unknown_a unto_o we_o neither_o ought_v we_o to_o inquire_v after_o it_o and_o why_o for_o it_o behove_v that_o all_o our_o sense_n be_v lock_v up_o captive_n in_o that_o behalf_n and_o that_o we_o confess_v that_o god_n have_v liberty_n to_o choose_v who_o he_o please_v and_o to_o refuse_v the_o rest_n but_o howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v he_o make_v this_o promise_n to_o the_o faithful_a that_o he_o will_v take_v pity_n on_o their_o child_n and_o that_o as_o he_o have_v begin_v his_o mercy_n in_o their_o person_n so_o he_o will_v continue_v it_o in_o their_o posterity_n even_o to_o a_o thousand_o generation_n see_v god_n have_v make_v this_o promise_n to_o his_o servant_n we_o see_v now_o there_o be_v some_o cause_n why_o god_n have_v pity_n of_o the_o one_o rather_o than_o of_o the_o other_o 〈…〉_o contrary_n part_n he_o threaten_v the_o unfaithful_a that_o the_o 〈…〉_o not_o only_o in_o themselves_o but_o also_o in_o their_o issue_n and_o 〈…〉_o which_o shall_v descend_v from_o their_o stock_n and_o family_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o mercy_n which_o god_n show_v and_o to_o the_o punishment_n he_o execute_v his_o mercy_n then_o be_v not_o in_o this_o that_o he_o bless_v the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a with_o riches_n with_o health_n or_o other_o like_a thing_n or_o that_o he_o make_v they_o to_o prosper_v to_o the_o world_n ward_n those_o be_v not_o the_o chief_a blessing_n of_o god_n that_o be_v not_o the_o end_n whereat_o he_o begin_v but_o rather_o he_o show_v they_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n when_o he_o govern_v they_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n when_o he_o give_v they_o the_o mark_n and_o seal_v of_o the_o adoption_n of_o his_o child_n when_o he_o correct_v they_o and_o purge_v they_o from_o their_o sin_n to_o reform_v and_o renew_v they_o to_o his_o image_n and_o likeness_n you_o see_v then_o the_o mercy_n which_o god_n extend_v to_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o suffer_v they_o not_o to_o remain_v in_o their_o corruption_n and_o wickedness_n but_o that_o he_o reform_v they_o and_o govern_v they_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n this_o be_v do_v he_o continue_v his_o mercy_n further_o more_o and_o more_o and_o make_v they_o to_o prosper_v even_o in_o this_o world_n until_o the_o fullness_n of_o his_o mercy_n be_v heap_v upon_o they_o namely_o until_o he_o have_v draw_v they_o out_o of_o this_o world_n into_o his_o kingdom_n and_o give_v they_o there_o the_o fruition_n of_o everlasting_a life_n on_o the_o contrary_a side_n whereas_o he_o punish_v the_o iniquity_n of_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n this_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o that_o he_o will_v leave_v the_o stock_n of_o they_o in_o the_o same_o plight_n they_o be_v in_o there_o be_v a_o wicked_a man_n there_o be_v a_o despiser_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n there_o be_v a_o unfaithful_a and_o unbelieve_a man_n well_o he_o shall_v have_v child_n god_n will_v as_o we_o may_v see_v forget_v they_o and_o account_v they_o for_o stranger_n and_o whereas_o he_o acknowledge_v they_o not_o in_o the_o number_n of_o his_o own_o he_o dain_v not_o nor_o vouchsale_v to_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n towards_o they_o so_o he_o leave_v they_o as_o forsake_v and_o then_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o satan_n possess_v they_o &_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n what_o other_o thing_n may_v happen_v unto_o they_o than_o evil_n and_o mischief_n so_o as_o they_o procure_v to_o themselves_o the_o wrath_n and_o anger_n of_o god_n more_o and_o more_o now_o then_o do_v our_o lord_n punish_v they_o without_o good_a cause_n can_v then_o say_v they_o be_v innocent_a and_o guiltless_a no._n for_o there_o be_v sufficient_a fault_n in_o they_o before_o hand_n we_o see_v then_o a_o great_a deal_n the_o better_a how_o this_o which_o god_n have_v pronounce_v by_o ezechiel_n be_v true_a namely_o that_o he_o which_o have_v sin_v shall_v bear_v the_o payment_n and_o punishment_n as_o he_o have_v deserve_v and_o that_o the_o innocent_a shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o sinner_n and_o transgressor_n notwithstanding_o we_o see_v also_o that_o not_o without_o cause_n he_o declare_v that_o he_o will_v punish_v the_o iniquity_n of_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n for_o why_o it_o be_v in_o he_o to_o show_v mercy_n to_o the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o unbelieving_a or_o of_o the_o contemner_n of_o his_o word_n or_o of_o hypocrite_n which_o abuse_v his_o name_n it_o be_v i_o say_v in_o the_o choice_n and_o liberty_n of_o god_n to_o withdraw_v his_o grace_n from_o their_o posterity_n and_o when_o their_o child_n be_v estrange_v from_o god_n what_o retain_v they_o but_o the_o filth_n and_o corruption_n of_o adam_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o in_o they_o but_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o therefore_o needs_o it_o must_v be_v that_o they_o be_v enemy_n to_o god_n you_o see_v then_o how_o he_o punish_v they_o in_o justice_n and_o that_o they_o

such_o shift_n will_v serve_v we_o to_o escape_v and_o why_o god_n follow_v on_o always_o to_o condemn_v wicked_a desire_n have_v condemn_v wicked_a counsel_n and_o purpose_n now_o this_o doctrine_n

fore_o god_n loe_o what_o the_o first_o use_n of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v namely_o that_o we_o have_v this_o zeal_n to_o call_v upon_o god_n to_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o that_o

any_o thought_n in_o we_o which_o shall_v tend_v unto_o evil_n let_v we_o come_v forth_o to_o oppose_v ourselves_o against_o it_o let_v we_o make_v this_o bar_n to_o say_v what_o god_n must_v bear_v rule_n whole_o in_o thou_o he_o must_v possess_v not_o only_o thy_o mind_n but_o all_o thy_o sense_n and_o thought_n for_o the_o second_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o condemn_v ourselves_o &_o give_v all_o glory_n unto_o god_n in_o confess_v that_o we_o be_v all_o culpable_a &_o guilty_a and_o that_o if_o he_o call_v we_o to_o account_v &_o shall_v use_v severity_n with_o we_o lo_o we_o all_o

and_o as_o it_o be_v forbid_v they_o to_o scratch_v themselves_o when_o they_o itch_v but_o we_o must_v come_v to_o know_v this_o misery_n and_o wretchedness_n which_o be_v in_o we_o namely_o that_o we_o have_v neither_o thought_n nor_o affection_n which_o be_v not_o rebellious_a unto_o god_n let_v we_o not_o therefore_o marvel_v if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o strife_n and_o combat_n between_o

nothing_o but_o all_o manner_n of_o corruption_n and_o damnable_a wickedness_n for_o we_o can_v conceive_v one_o only_a thought_n which_o tend_v not_o unto_o evil_n see_v it_o be_v so_o with_o we_o and_o that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o a_o perfect_a rule_n of_o all_o goodness_n and_o upright_o live_v have_v he_o not_o as_o it_o be_v thunder_v against_o we_o and_o be_v it_o not_o manifest_a that_o the_o fire_n and_o the_o water_n be_v at_o less_o strife_n yea_o agree_v better_o than_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n and_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n let_v we_o not_o therefore_o think_v it_o

for_o in_o stead_n of_o glorify_v of_o god_o in_o his_o justice_n they_o fling_v themselves_o and_o spurn_v against_o he_o as_o savage_a and_o furious_a beast_n lo_o what_o we_o have_v to_o note_v touch_v the_o frailty_n and_o weakness_n of_o man_n that_o albeit_o it_o be_v so_o great_a yet_o he_o condemn_v it_o in_o his_o law_n and_o why_o for_o when_o god_o order_v our_o life_n and_o show_v

either_o in_o their_o body_n or_o their_o soul_n now_o withal_o let_v we_o note_v diligent_o that_o we_o can_v acquire_v we_o of_o our_o duty_n towards_o he_o but_o where_o be_v the_o cause_n hereof_o
