contrary_a nature_n 2._o reason_n 2._o the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o care_n of_o the_o world_n choke_v the_o word_n if_o they_o hinder_v not_o a_o man_n from_o receive_v it_o as_o full_a hand_n be_v able_a to_o receive_v nothing_o no_o not_o gold_n when_o they_o be_v full_a of_o clay_n before_o now_o affection_n be_v like_o hand_n say_v augustine_n which_o when_o they_o be_v full_a of_o the_o world_n how_o shall_v they_o receive_v the_o word_n or_o if_o they_o receive_v it_o a_o little_a they_o will_v soon_o choke_v it_o then_o when_o the_o word_n be_v god_n instrument_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o repentance_n when_o either_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v or_o choke_v what_o shall_v beget_v this_o in_o they_o how_o must_v not_o care_n needs_o keep_v they_o from_o repentance_n 3._o reason_n 3._o 3._o because_o by_o these_o man_n be_v make_v licentious_a and_o voluptuous_a and_o so_o can_v never_o profit_v by_o the_o word_n no_o more_o than_o seed_n sow_v in_o

such_o a_o state_n as_o they_o can_v desire_v they_o ought_v to_o remember_v that_o say_n of_o christ_n who_o advise_v every_o man_n 6.33_o matth._n 6.33_o first_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n
