the_o truth_n thereof_o be_v not_o evident_a to_o they_o as_o do_v the_o nobly-minded_n beraean_n 1â.11_n beraean_n acts._n 17_o 1â.11_n but_o if_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o word_n be_v deliver_v to_o their_o conscience_n then_o must_v they_o believe_v it_o without_o any_o demur_v so_o the_o apostle_n believe_v that_o christ_n his_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o his_o blood_n drink_v indeed_o 61.66.67.6â_n indeed_o joh._n 6.55_o ââ_o 61.66.67.6â_n and_o follow_v he_o without_o any_o offence_n because_o he_o have_v the_o word_n of_o eternal_a life_n whereas_o other_o seem_a disciple_n be_v offend_v and_o give_v over_o follow_v christ_n because_o it_o seem_v to_o their_o natural_a reason_n to_o be_v a_o hard_a say_n so_o abraham_n 4.18.19.20.21_o abraham_n âom_n 4.18.19.20.21_o above_o hope_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o old_a age_n and_o his_o wife_n barrenness_n but_o under_o hope_n in_o regard_n of_o god_n power_n believe_v the_o word_n of_o god_n promise_v to_o make_v he_o a_o father_n of_o many_o nation_n so_o hezekiah_n 8_o hezekiah_n âsa_fw-la 39.5.6_o â_o 8_o though_o a_o king_n be_v not_o angry_a with_o the_o prophet_n prophesy_v most_o grievous_a thing_n to_o he_o but_o believe_v his_o prophecy_n so_o cross_v natural_a affection_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o say_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v good_a here_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v be_v some_o comfort_n to_o know_v how_o you_o may_v judge_v of_o yourselves_o in_o the_o time_n of_o hear_v whether_o the_o word_n be_v mix_v with_o faith_n i_o will_v show_v you_o if_o your_o heart_n answer_v god_n word_n as_o do_v david_n when_o god_n say_v 27.8_o say_v psal_n 27.8_o seek_v you_o my_o face_n his_o heart_n answer_v o_o lord_n i_o will_v seek_v thy_o face_n for_o faith_n be_v such_o a_o assent_n to_o every_o word_n of_o god_n as_o produce_v affection_n and_o action_n answerable_a to_o the_o word_n whereunto_o the_o heart_n assent_v so_o that_o when_o john_n baptist_n preach_v repentance_n 1.16.17.18.1â_n repentance_n math._n 11_o 1.16.17.18.1â_n we_o grieve_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n and_o when_o christ_n preach_v the_o gospel_n we_o be_v comfort_v in_o hope_n of_o forgivenensse_n hereby_o be_v condemn_v such_o as_o be_v like_o those_o proud_a man_n 43.2_o man_n jere._n 43.2_o who_o tell_v jeremy_n that_o he_o speak_v false_o when_o he_o deliver_v the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o cross_v their_o purpose_n second_o such_o as_o be_v like_o the_o prince_n 7.1.2.17_o prince_n 2_o king_n 7.1.2.17_o who_o contrary_v the_o word_n of_o god_n touch_v sudden_a

which_o in_o these_o last_o day_n will_v walk_v after_o their_o lust_n not_o believe_v the_o promise_n of_o christ_n his_o come_n to_o judgement_n because_o it_o be_v defer_v yea_o fourthly_a those_o weak_a one_o who_o be_v like_a to_o david_n 116.11_o david_n psal_n 116.11_o who_o say_v in_o his_o fear_n all_o man_n be_v liar_n mean_v especial_o samuel_n who_o anoint_v he_o to_o be_v king_n 16.13_o king_n sam._n 16.13_o but_o before_o he_o get_v the_o crown_n saul_n so_o persecute_v he_o that_o he_o doubt_v of_o the_o word_n which_o samuel_n have_v speak_v five_o much_o more_o be_v they_o hereby_o condemn_v who_o out_o of_o a_o humour_n trouble_v by_o the_o word_n do_v cavil_n against_o it_o contrary_a to_o the_o apostle_n james_n his_o exhortation_n 1.21.19_o exhortation_n tam._n 1.21.19_o that_o we_o shall_v receive_v the_o word_n with_o meekness_n and_o therefore_o shall_v be_v swift_a to_o hear_v slow_a to_o speak_v &_o slow_a to_o wrath_n for_o wrath_n because_o the_o word_n cross_v our_o mind_n stir_v up_o the_o tongue_n unto_o gainsaying_n and_o therefore_o the_o word_n be_v not_o believe_v as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n six_o hereby_o be_v condemn_v such_o as_o despair_v in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n and_o do_v not_o live_v by_o faith_n 2.3.4_o faith_n hab._n 2.3.4_o wait_v for_o the_o appoint_a time_n when_o the_o vision_n will_v speak_v

stop_v the_o way_n between_o the_o word_n and_o faith_n so_o as_o they_o can_v be_v mix_v in_o they_o that_o hear_v i_o mean_v those_o who_o hear_v the_o word_n with_o prejudicate_a opinion_n papist_n or_o other_o who_o will_v stop_v their_o ear_n and_o not_o hear_v the_o word_n so_o as_o to_o believe_v it_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n charm_v the_o charmer_n never_o so_o wise_o 58.5_o wise_o psal_n 58.5_o use_v 5_o the_o three_o thing_n require_v to_o manifest_v our_o high_a estimation_n of_o the_o word_n be_v to_o obey_v it_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o to_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o not_o to_o obey_v it_o be_v deem_v by_o god_n a_o cast_n it_o away_o 15.22.23_o away_o 1_o sam._n 15.22.23_o therefore_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o though_o we_o be_v hearer_n if_o we_o be_v not_o doer_n also_o of_o the_o word_n 1.22_o word_n jam._n 1.22_o but_o what_o be_v require_v of_o we_o that_o we_o may_v obey_v the_o word_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n i_o answer_v many_o thing_n among_o the_o rest_n especial_o absolute_a obedience_n to_o whatsoever_o the_o word_n command_v without_o make_v any_o question_n or_o difficulty_n for_o god_n be_v of_o absolute_a authority_n and_o therefore_o we_o pray_v 6.10_o pray_v math._n 6.10_o thy_o will_v be_v do_v on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o his_o word_n be_v perfect_a and_o right_a 19.7.8_o right_a psal_n 19.7.8_o therefore_o our_o absolute_a obedience_n be_v not_o blind_a as_o be_v the_o obedience_n of_o jesuite_n to_o their_o superior_n who_o they_o must_v obey_v though_o they_o command_v the_o kill_n of_o prince_n not_o inquire_v after_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o such_o a_o commandment_n but_o their_o superstitious_a and_o blind_a obedience_n condemn_v we_o if_o we_o yield_v not_o absolute_a obedience_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v of_o absolute_a authority_n and_o altogether_o without_o error_n so_o be_v not_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o pope_n or_o of_o any_o humane_a superior_a whosoever_o let_v we_o consider_v some_o few_o example_n of_o obedience_n to_o the_o word_n as_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o unmatchable_a example_n of_o abraham_n may_v well_o be_v

his_o obedience_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v remarkable_a too_o the_o rather_o because_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n take_v special_a notice_n thereof_o 11._o thereof_o heb._n 11._o show_v we_o that_o abraham_n obey_v god_n command_v he_o to_o go_v he_o know_v not_o whither_o which_o last_o word_n imply_v that_o he_o obey_v ready_o without_o question_v whether_o danger_n be_v in_o the_o way_n and_o what_o commodious_a dwell_n be_v in_o the_o place_n whereunto_o he_o shall_v go_v therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o faith_n he_o obey_v so_o also_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o same_o chapter_n verse_n 17._o that_o abraham_n offer_v up_o isaac_n by_o faith_n whereby_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n intimate_v that_o in_o both_o these_o obedience_n abraham_n esteem_v the_o commandment_n as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n i_o shall_v express_v this_o point_n yet_o more_o plain_o by_o a_o example_n of_o peter_n walk_v upon_o the_o sea_n at_o christ_n his_o bid_n 39_o bid_n âat_a 14.34_o ââ_o 36.37_o â8_o 39_o but_o note_n that_o peter_n perceive_v that_o it_o be_v christ_n and_o not_o a_o spirit_n as_o he_o and_o his_o fellow_n fear_v who_o walk_v on_o the_o sea_n in_o the_o night_n say_v master_n if_o it_o be_v thou_o bid_v i_o come_v unto_o thou_o on_o the_o water_n which_o show_v how_o high_o he_o esteem_v of_o christ_n his_o word_n persuade_v that_o obey_v it_o
