of_o wondrous_a comfort_n likewise_o to_o we_o in_o all_o affliction_n whatsoever_o especial_o such_o as_o concern_v the_o state_n of_o the_o church_n we_o be_v now_o in_o ill_a time_n if_o we_o look_v about_o we_o however_o god_n continue_v better_a to_o we_o than_o we_o deserve_v we_o be_v as_o the_o three_o young_a man_n in_o the_o fiery_a furnace_n untouched_a when_o all_o be_v in_o a_o combustion_n round_o about_o we_o where_o be_v christ_n rule_v now_o his_o poor_a church_n be_v thus_o use_v and_o trample_v upon_o in_o france_n in_o the_o palatinate_n in_o bohemia_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o germany_n belove_a it_o be_v our_o fault_n perhaps_o we_o waken_v not_o christ_n as_o the_o disciple_n they_o awake_v christ_n when_o there_o be_v a_o mighty_a storm_n and_o move_v he_o to_o rebuke_v the_o wind_n and_o the_o wave_n and_o there_o follow_v a_o calm_a so_o shall_v we_o christ_n love_v to_o be_v awake_v by_o our_o prayer_n and_o if_o the_o church_n will_v join_v in_o force_n one_o church_n with_o another_o altogether_o they_o may_v work_v wonder_n let_v we_o offer_v a_o holy_a violence_n to_o christ_n by_o prayer_n and_o the_o use_n of_o holy_a mean_n he_o be_v lord_n still_o of_o the_o church_n and_o take_v thing_n at_o the_o worst_a as_o they_o be_v he_o be_v but_o carry_v thing_n to_o his_o own_o end_n belove_a if_o we_o consider_v thing_n aright_o it_o can_v hardly_o be_v otherwise_o with_o the_o church_n than_o it_o be_v if_o we_o consider_v the_o former_a security_n and_o dullness_n and_o want_v of_o prize_v the_o great_a thing_n of_o christ_n the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n and_o the_o sacrament_n we_o live_v under_o the_o gospel_n in_o such_o deadness_n and_o such_o sin_n as_o a_o turk_n will_v scarce_o commit_v we_o be_v no_o more_o affect_v with_o it_o than_o a_o jew_n or_o a_o turk_n that_o have_v not_o the_o mean_n will_v christ_n endure_v this_o that_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v careless_a whether_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n the_o bless_a truth_n of_o god_n or_o no_o and_o grow_v sinful_a and_o have_v less_o conscience_n than_o a_o turk_n or_o a_o jew_n will_v christ_n continue_v his_o bless_a prerogative_n and_o privilege_n to_o such_o therefore_o if_o we_o do_v but_o look_v to_o the_o ordinary_a disposition_n of_o most_o man_n a_o man_n will_v think_v it_o impossible_a but_o that_o judgement_n shall_v come_v will_v there_o be_v a_o reformation_n of_o these_o man_n without_o a_o spirit_n of_o fire_n without_o some_o purge_a flame_n then_o again_o christ_n be_v humble_v his_o church_n for_o the_o advancement_n of_o it_o and_o suffer_v the_o enemy_n to_o triumph_v for_o their_o further_a abasement_n he_o be_v compass_v a_o bless_a work_n there_o be_v a_o great_a wheel_n a_o go_v but_o we_o do_v not_o see_v the_o issue_n of_o thing_n all_o this_o great_a wheel_n the_o lord_n rule_v and_o govern_v and_o move_v you_o shall_v see_v at_o length_n what_o it_o will_v drive_v to_o we_o see_v in_o a_o clock_n there_o be_v many_o wheel_v one_o contrary_a to_o another_o but_o all_o help_v the_o clock_n to_o strike_v all_o join_v in_o that_o so_o there_o be_v a_o stroke_n there_o be_v somewhat_o that_o will_v come_v out_o of_o all_o these_o trouble_n that_o seem_v contrary_a one_o to_o another_o some_o up_o and_o some_o down_o but_o all_o these_o wheel_n will_v help_v to_o bring_v out_o some_o stroke_n some_o glorious_a thing_n that_o posterity_n perhaps_o may_v see_v that_o be_v now_o a_o work_n therefore_o let_v none_o take_v scandal_n christ_n rule_v now_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o enemy_n we_o must_v not_o catch_v at_o piece_n of_o christ_n workmanship_n as_o in_o a_o poem_n we_o judge_v not_o by_o a_o piece_n but_o look_v to_o the_o catastrophe_n we_o look_v to_o the_o upshot_n and_o closure_n of_o all_o though_o all_o be_v in_o a_o combustion_n there_o we_o see_v all_o thing_n bring_v to_o a_o excellent_a and_o wise_a issue_n therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o suspend_v your_o judgement_n a_o while_n and_o then_o you_o shall_v see_v with_o a_o spirit_n of_o faith_n all_o the_o enemy_n overthrow_v even_o as_o if_o we_o do_v see_v it_o with_o our_o eye_n of_o sense_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n persuade_v ourselves_o that_o christ_n be_v about_o a_o bless_a work_n as_o he_o be_v king_n of_o his_o church_n one_o question_n the_o papist_n move_v upon_o such_o text_n as_o this_o that_o i_o will_v assoil_v brief_o because_o it_o may_v trouble_v some_o though_o it_o be_v of_o no_o great_a moment_n it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o christ_n die_v and_o rise_v again_o and_o revive_v that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o of_o the_o live_n hence_o not_o only_a papist_n but_o some_o other_o move_v this_o question_n which_o i_o will_v give_v a_o little_a light_n unto_o whether_o christ_n by_o his_o die_a and_o abasement_n do_v merit_v any_o thing_n for_o himself_o because_o it_o be_v say_v here_o he_o do_v this_o that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n of_o the_o dead_a etc._n etc._n he_o abase_v himself_o to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n therefore_o god_n give_v he_o a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n phil._n 2._o the_o papist_n they_o fall_v upon_o calvin_n that_o say_v he_o do_v not_o and_o that_o make_v i_o the_o rather_o to_o touch_v it_o calvin_n as_o he_o be_v a_o very_a holy_a man_n so_o out_o of_o his_o holiness_n he_o avoid_v curious_a question_n as_o much_o as_o he_o may_v therefore_o give_v a_o excellent_a answer_n say_v he_o whether_o he_o do_v or_o no_o it_o be_v curious_a to_o search_v it_o be_v rash_a to_o define_v for_o satisfaction_n take_v these_o ground_n and_o all_o be_v well_o first_o of_o all_o that_o christ_n be_v perfect_o glorious_a now_o in_o heaven_n both_o body_n and_o soul_n there_o be_v no_o question_n of_o that_o and_o that_o he_o come_v to_o this_o glory_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o the_o manifestation_n of_o it_o after_o his_o abasement_n by_o his_o humiliation_n first_o he_o must_v die_v and_o suffer_v and_o then_o enter_v into_o glory_n again_o remember_v this_o for_o a_o ground_n that_o christ_n as_o man_n merit_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o union_n or_o unction_n for_o how_o can_v he_o merit_v before_o he_o be_v can_v christ_n merit_v to_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o second_o person_n that_o be_v the_o great_a grace_n that_o ever_o be_v no_o nor_o the_o grace_n of_o unction_n habitual_a grace_n in_o christ_n whereby_o the_o humane_a nature_n be_v fill_v with_o all_o grace_n it_o be_v upon_o unction_n present_o they_o follow_v one_o another_o there_o be_v no_o merit_v of_o that_o thing_n because_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o his_o incarnation_n it_o be_v by_o union_n of_o his_o nature_n these_o thing_n be_v think_v upon_o for_o other_o thing_n they_o be_v not_o material_a only_o it_o be_v best_a and_o safe_a to_o think_v that_o he_o do_v not_o for_o himself_o merit_v any_o thing_n for_o if_o so_o be_v all_o glory_n be_v due_a to_o he_o by_o virtue_n of_o union_n which_o he_o have_v by_o grace_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o unction_n if_o he_o have_v die_v present_o he_o may_v have_v go_v to_o heaven_n present_o indeed_o without_o die_v if_o there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o dispensation_n lay_v upon_o he_o to_o die_v for_o we_o and_o therefore_o by_o virtue_n of_o union_n and_o unction_n that_o be_v free_a heaven_n be_v due_a to_o he_o present_o and_o all_o that_o glory_n that_o he_o have_v afterward_o why_o be_v there_o a_o stop_n of_o that_o glory_n that_o his_o body_n be_v unite_v to_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v not_o present_o glorify_v as_o now_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n so_o that_o he_o live_v in_o abasement_n and_o die_v a_o most_o curse_a death_n belove_a all_o this_o be_v for_o we_o and_o then_o after_o the_o dispensation_n be_v finish_v for_o we_o after_o god_n justice_n be_v satisfy_v for_o we_o there_o be_v no_o more_o stop_n or_o stay_v of_o his_o glory_n but_o then_o his_o divine_a nature_n do_v flow_v into_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o then_o his_o humane_a nature_n become_v glorious_a so_o glorious_a as_o it_o be_v capable_a of_o what_o he_o do_v be_v for_o we_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o think_v of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o consider_v we_o and_o not_o himself_o in_o that_o his_o abasement_n as_o the_o scripture_n run_v in_o that_o strain_n to_o we_o a_o son_n be_v give_v for_o we_o a_o child_n be_v bear_v he_o die_v for_o we_o he_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o he_o rise_v for_o we_o he_o ascend_v for_o we_o he_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n for_o we_o himself_o indeed_o have_v glory_n but_o together_o with_o we_o and_o therefore_o when_o we_o think_v of_o the_o
