for_o his_o glory_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o his_o glory_n then_o certain_o the_o power_n of_o god_n must_v not_o be_v bring_v down_o for_o the_o work_n of_o it_o and_o as_o it_o be_v against_o his_o glory_n so_o it_o be_v against_o his_o wisdom_n for_o the_o lord_n do_v nothing_o to_o no_o purpose_n he_o do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a he_o never_o wrought_v miracle_n when_o they_o may_v be_v spare_v where_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v without_o a_o miracle_n since_o this_o may_v be_v do_v without_o a_o miracle_n all_o that_o we_o have_v by_o christ_n all_o that_o be_v represent_v in_o the_o sacrament_n what_o necessity_n be_v there_o and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n it_o beseem_v not_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o do_v it_o again_o will_v not_o the_o small_a miracle_n real_o and_o visible_o expose_v to_o sense_n help_v more_o than_o such_o a_o miracle_n as_o this_o beside_o all_o this_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o possible_a make_v your_o own_o sense_n judge_n you_o see_v nothing_o but_o bread_n now_o this_o be_v a_o sure_a rule_n that_o of_o all_o demonstration_n of_o reason_n that_o we_o have_v to_o prove_v thing_n nothing_o be_v so_o firm_a as_o that_o which_o be_v take_v from_o sense_n to_o prove_v the_o fire_n be_v hot_a we_o feel_v it_o hot_a or_o honey_n to_o be_v sweet_a when_o we_o taste_v it_o to_o be_v sweet_a there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n make_v it_o so_o firm_a as_o sense_n as_o it_o be_v true_a in_o these_o case_n so_o it_o be_v a_o undoubted_a truth_n in_o divinity_n that_o in_o all_o matter_n of_o sense_n sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n indeed_o if_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o reason_n there_o sense_n be_v not_o able_a to_o judge_v the_o eye_n be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o his_o own_o sense_n of_o sound_n it_o can_v judge_v but_o i_o say_v object_n proper_a to_o sense_n peculiar_a to_o sense_n in_o these_o sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n and_o therefore_o christ_n himself_o in_o this_o very_a business_n when_o he_o will_v prove_v that_o he_o have_v a_o true_a body_n he_o send_v they_o to_o their_o sense_n a_o spirit_n have_v not_o flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o you_o see_v i_o have_v and_o thomas_n he_o bid_v put_v thy_o hand_n into_o my_o side_n and_o feel_v etc._n etc._n he_o send_v they_o to_o their_o sense_n look_v through_o the_o scripture_n and_o see_v if_o there_o be_v one_o miracle_n there_o if_o sense_n be_v not_o a_o competent_a judge_n according_a to_o that_o part_n of_o the_o miracle_n that_o concern_v the_o sense_n will_v you_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o christ_n shall_v have_v come_v to_o the_o master_n of_o the_o feast_n when_o he_o wrought_v the_o miracle_n and_o have_v say_v sir_n you_o must_v believe_v that_o this_o be_v wine_n though_o you_o see_v nothing_o though_o you_o taste_v nothing_o but_o water_n yet_o you_o must_v believe_v that_o it_o be_v turn_v into_o wine_n and_o if_o god_n shall_v have_v say_v unto_o moses_n though_o you_o see_v nothing_o but_o a_o rod_n thou_o must_v believe_v it_o be_v turn_v into_o a_o serpent_n if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o change_n indeed_o and_o such_o as_o sense_n may_v see_v we_o will_v think_v it_o a_o ridiculous_a thing_n and_o next_o door_n to_o a_o imposture_n and_o therefore_o certain_o in_o matter_n of_o sense_n sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n and_o therefore_o when_o all_o the_o sense_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v bread_n when_o we_o taste_v when_o the_o eye_n and_o the_o touch_n when_o every_o thing_n make_v it_o evident_a that_o it_o be_v bread_n why_o shall_v we_o say_v there_o be_v any_o thing_n else_o but_o bread_n beside_o if_o we_o will_v add_v to_o sense_n reason_n it_o be_v against_o reason_n as_o well_o as_o against_o sense_n it_o be_v against_o reason_n that_o christ_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o yet_o have_v ten_o thousand_o body_n on_o earth_n and_o yet_o christ_n have_v but_o one_o body_n and_o a_o body_n can_v be_v but_o in_o one_o place_n and_o again_o this_o body_n must_v be_v without_o all_o circumscription_n and_o quality_n and_o property_n of_o a_o body_n and_o again_o that_o the_o bread_n that_o we_o see_v shall_v be_v no_o bread_n say_v they_o there_o be_v the_o whiteness_n of_o bread_n there_o be_v the_o taste_n of_o bread_n there_o be_v the_o quantity_n of_o bread_n and_o that_o be_v all_o i_o will_v but_o ask_v they_o one_o thing_n when_o this_o bread_n be_v eat_v since_o there_o be_v nothing_o there_o but_o these_o accident_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o mere_a quantity_n and_o the_o like_a i_o will_v ask_v whether_o it_o nourish_v the_o body_n or_o no_o they_o must_v needs_o answer_v no_o if_o they_o follow_v their_o principle_n because_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o there_o they_o say_v it_o be_v remove_v as_o soon_o as_o the_o bread_n be_v destroy_v when_o it_o begin_v to_o turn_v into_o flesh_n it_o lose_v these_o accident_n well_o the_o bread_n return_v not_o again_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o accident_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o yet_o certain_o it_o do_v nourish_v for_o it_o be_v report_v by_o credible_a author_n that_o some_o have_v be_v so_o holy_a that_o they_o will_v feed_v upon_o nothing_o else_o but_o the_o eucharist_n for_o a_o priest_n may_v consecrate_v a_o cellar_n of_o wine_n and_o as_o much_o bread_n as_o he_o will_v and_o may_v feed_v upon_o this_o and_o with_o these_o he_o may_v be_v nourish_v and_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o accident_n of_o bread_n in_o a_o word_n the_o school_n that_o traverse_v this_o so_o accute_o be_v not_o satisfy_v at_o all_o in_o this_o but_o they_o leave_v it_o as_o a_o wonder_n as_o a_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v explain_v so_o it_o be_v against_o reason_n as_o it_o be_v against_o sense_n but_o you_o will_v say_v faith_n be_v beyond_o sense_n and_o reason_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v beyond_o both_o but_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o both_o faith_n teach_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o reason_n for_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v god_n work_n as_o well_o as_o grace_v now_o one_o work_n of_o god_n do_v not_o destroy_v another_o if_o they_o shall_v there_o must_v be_v a_o imperfection_n in_o the_o workman_n and_o therefore_o grace_n and_o faith_n contrary_v not_o sense_n and_o reason_n indeed_o it_o elevate_v reason_n and_o make_v it_o high_o it_o make_v it_o see_v further_o than_o reason_n can_v it_o be_v contrary_a indeed_o to_o corrupt_v reason_n but_o to_o reason_n that_o be_v right_a reason_n it_o be_v not_o contrary_a only_o it_o raise_v it_o high_o and_o therefore_o faith_n teach_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o sense_n and_o reason_n but_o beside_o these_o if_o we_o show_v they_o scripture_n too_o what_o will_v they_o have_v then_o to_o say_v when_o we_o say_v it_o be_v against_o sense_n and_o reason_n say_v they_o the_o scripture_n affirm_v it_o if_o it_o do_v we_o will_v yield_v let_v we_o examine_v the_o word_n if_o the_o scripture_n affirm_v it_o yes_o say_v they_o the_o scripture_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n they_o be_v christ_n word_n but_o if_o the_o scripture_n say_v so_o yet_o the_o scripture_n say_v no_o where_o that_o that_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o the_o body_n that_o no_o where_o say_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o transubstantiation_n only_o those_o word_n use_v which_o as_o you_o hear_v may_v have_v a_o metaphorical_a tropical_a figurative_a sense_n but_o beside_o this_o what_o if_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o contrary_a you_o shall_v find_v this_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n five_o time_n call_v bread_n and_o after_o it_o be_v consecrate_v too_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n that_o we_o bless_v and_o the_o bread_n that_o we_o break_v after_o he_o have_v bless_v the_o bread_n than_o he_o take_v it_o and_o after_o he_o have_v take_v it_o than_o he_o break_v it_o he_o thus_o take_v that_o which_o be_v call_v bread_n again_o they_o say_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o break_v but_o that_o be_v break_v which_o be_v always_o after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n but_o it_o be_v the_o bread_n that_o we_o break_v again_o if_o it_o can_v be_v understand_v otherwise_o you_o see_v what_o a_o tautology_n will_v be_v in_o the_o word_n the_o bread_n that_o we_o break_v it_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n if_o the_o meaning_n be_v that_o it_o be_v the_o body_n here_o the_o word_n must_v be_v thus_o render_v the_o body_n that_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n but_o i_o say_v five_o time_n you_o shall_v find_v it_o in_o this_o next_o chapter_n that_o it_o be_v bread_n after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n and_o you_o know_v it_o be_v say_v to_o

impute_v to_o we_o such_o a_o necessity_n be_v there_o that_o man_n be_v humble_v now_o that_o you_o may_v a_o little_a better_o understand_v this_o point_n 2._o christ._n you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v but_o two_o thing_n that_o keep_v man_n off_o from_o come_v to_o christ._n one_o be_v unbelief_n when_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v the_o messiah_n or_o that_o they_o be_v to_o be_v save_v by_o he_o unbelief_n this_o be_v the_o great_a hindrance_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o you_o have_v faith_n in_o the_o messiah_n press_v so_o much_o to_o believe_v that_o that_o be_v he_o but_o that_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v press_v so_o much_o in_o these_o time_n but_o as_o you_o see_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n when_o the_o prophet_n speak_v to_o a_o church_n to_o confirm_v it_o in_o the_o truth_n they_o do_v not_o press_v so_o much_o to_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o that_o he_o be_v one_o god_n and_o that_o a_o god_n of_o truth_n but_o to_o trust_v in_o god_n and_o to_o make_v use_n of_o their_o knowledge_n so_o must_v we_o do_v there_o be_v therefore_o another_o thing_n that_o hinder_v from_o christ_n twofold_a and_o that_o be_v negligence_n man_n care_v not_o for_o christ_n they_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o he_o and_o this_o be_v twofold_a totall_n or_o partial_a totall_n totall_n be_v that_o which_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o that_o be_v bid_v to_o the_o feast_n and_o excuse_v themselves_o and_o have_v buy_v a_o yoke_n of_o ox_n another_o have_v marry_v a_o wife_n another_o have_v take_v a_o farm_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o come_v they_o be_v persuade_v there_o be_v a_o feast_n of_o fatling_n provide_v but_o they_o mind_v other_o thing_n for_o they_o be_v not_o hungry_a and_o therefore_o care_v not_o for_o it_o and_o in_o this_o kind_a the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n of_o your_o common_a protestant_n neglect_v the_o gospel_n tell_v they_o of_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o justification_n they_o mind_n it_o not_o second_o partial_a there_o be_v a_o partial_a neglect_n and_o so_o many_o profess_v christ_n do_v many_o thing_n for_o he_o but_o regard_v he_o not_o and_o in_o this_o the_o second_o and_o three_o ground_n fail_v the_o second_o do_v much_o but_o not_o so_o far_o regard_v he_o as_o to_o endure_v persecution_n the_o three_o do_v respect_v he_o more_o but_o not_o so_o as_o to_o forgo_v their_o lust_n for_o he_o this_o be_v a_o partial_a neglect_n and_o that_o that_o help_v this_o double_a neglect_n be_v humiliation_n now_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n or_o two_o of_o this_o point_n and_o so_o we_o will_v make_v use_n of_o it_o and_o come_v to_o the_o other_o which_o be_v the_o main_a and_o that_o i_o most_o intend_v god_n will_v have_v it_o thus_o for_o these_o two_o reason_n first_o it_o with_o reference_n to_o our_o justification_n he_o will_v justify_v none_o till_o he_o have_v bring_v he_o to_o acknowledge_v both_o his_o

will_v have_v a_o man_n acknowledge_v his_o justice_n that_o be_v confess_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o sinner_n to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o his_o sin_n to_o acknowledge_v himself_o worthy_a to_o be_v

all_o be_v nothing_o 3_o i_o will_v end_v this_o point_n with_o this_o brief_a direction_n you_o know_v there_o be_v in_o every_o man_n i_o speak_v now_o of_o every_o man_n that_o be_v holy_a thing_n and_o not_o of_o other_o who_o be_v stranger_n from_o god_n the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n there_o be_v faith_n and_o sense_n and_o one_o of_o these_o two_o every_o man_n set_v on_o work_n to_o take_v a_o view_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v before_o they_o if_o you_o set_v faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n on_o work_n to_o look_v on_o thing_n they_o will_v tell_v you_o it_o matter_n not_o what_o outward_a thing_n be_v what_o the_o creature_n be_v for_o it_o be_v god_n that_o do_v all_o set_v the_o flesh_n on_o work_n set_v sense_n and_o carnal_a reason_n on_o work_n and_o they_o will_v bring_v quite_o contrary_a news_n like_o the_o wicked_a spy_n that_o be_v send_v into_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n who_o when_o they_o do_v but_o cast_v their_o eye_n on_o the_o state_n of_o thing_n there_o they_o be_v first_o discourage_v themselves_o and_o then_o discourage_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o people_n oh_o there_o be_v giant_n and_o wall_n reach_v up_o to_o heaven_n whereas_o the_o good_a spy_n that_o look_v on_o thing_n with_o another_o eye_n bring_v another_o kind_n of_o message_n just_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o we_o in_o send_v out_o our_o spy_n to_o look_v upon_o the_o state_n of_o thing_n before_o we_o if_o we_o send_v forth_o the_o flesh_n sense_n and_o reason_n they_o bring_v report_n of_o terrible_a wall_n and_o cruel_a giant_n their_o power_n be_v so_o great_a their_o force_n so_o strong_a that_o there_o be_v no_o meddle_v with_o they_o but_o send_v faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o will_n like_o good_a spy_n look_v on_o thing_n with_o a_o right_a judgement_n and_o indeed_o that_o be_v all_o the_o difference_n between_o a_o holy_a man_n and_o another_o the_o one_o look_n on_o thing_n with_o another_o eye_n he_o see_v a_o vanity_n in_o the_o creature_n which_o the_o other_o do_v not_o he_o see_v a_o all-sufficiency_n in_o god_n which_o the_o other_o can_v and_o therefore_o he_o have_v only_o a_o eye_n to_o the_o lord_n all_o his_o care_n be_v to_o serve_v he_o and_o please_v he_o in_o all_o thing_n so_o he_o have_v no_o ill_a news_n from_o heaven_n he_o care_v for_o nothing_o on_o earth_n the_o other_o care_v not_o how_o matter_n stand_v betwixt_o god_n and_o he_o so_o all_o thing_n be_v well_o below_o so_o his_o mountain_n stand_v strong_a and_o therefore_o that_o we_o may_v judge_v of_o thing_n with_o a_o righteous_a judgement_n we_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o see_v they_o in_o their_o true_a nature_n which_o only_a faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n will_v present_v and_o so_o much_o shall_v serve_v for_o that_o point_n you_o see_v then_o wrath._n that_o it_o be_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o do_v all_o hurt_n and_o the_o favour_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o do_v all_o the_o good_a we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o point_n which_o will_v come_v in_o well_o upon_o the_o former_a that_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o cause_v wrath_n sin_n and_o wrath_n be_v knit_v together_o they_o be_v inseparable_a so_o

out_o god_n anger_n keep_v out_o sin_n object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v i_o feel_v no_o such_o thing_n i_o have_v commit_v sin_n wrath_n and_o yet_o have_v no_o experience_n of_o his_o wrath_n
