of their money goods and Iewels multiplying his cattel in exceeding number encreasing his offpring with a faire issue beholding his posteritie vnto the fourth generation and finally in crowning him with honourable olde age and fulnesse of daies Iohn the last Chapter So our Sauiour Mat. 13.12 Whosoeuer hath to him shall be giuen and he shall haue aboundance but whosoeuer hath not shall be taken away euen that which he hath As we may see in Elizeus the Prophet vpon whom for his willingnes and forwardnesse in accepting that holy function and for his faithfulnesse and zeale in following the same and for his earnest and feruent praier was doubled vpon him the spirit of Elias 2. Kings 2.9 but otherwise in Saul from whom the good spirit of the Lorde was taken away and an euil spirit of God was sent to vex him 1. Sam. 16.14 Of both which we haue a double euident demonstration First in the parable of the Virgins of the which the first fiue being wise vsed well their lampes by trimming preparing and filling them with oyle against the comming of the bridegroome and therefore were receiued into the wedding but the other fiue foolish abused their lampes in suffering them to go out for want of oyle and for not watching the time and season of the bridegroomes comming and therefore were worthely thrust out of doores Secondly in the similitude of the talents wherein is declared that first he that had fiue talents occupying with them and gaining other fiue to his masters profit and againe he that receiued two to get other two to his masters vse and that therefore they had not onely the praise of good and faithfull seruants but also the reward of their weldoing in being made rulers ouer much because they were found faithfull in little and were bidden to enter into their masters ioye But as for that other euill and slothfull seruant which had but one talent who wrapt it vp in a napkin went and hid it in the earth accusing his masters hardnes His Lord did not onely reprooue him of idlenesse and bereft him of his talent bestowing it on him that had tenne talents yeelding that for a reason before remembred mentioned of our Sauiour Mat. 13. but did also cast him as an vnprofitable seruaunt into vtter darkenesse where is weeping wailing and gnashing of teeth Mat. 25. The vse hereof in a word is thus much vnto vs all vpon whom God in any manner or measure hath bestowed any temporall benefits and blessings or spirituall gifts and graces that we take heede that we neither disuse them idly nor abuse them vainely nor misuse them vnlawfully but wisely and warily carefully and circumspectly to vse them to the honor and glorie of God to the good of our neighbour and brother and to our owne soules health and saluation As for those in generall that haue the world at will that they follow the precept of the Apostle in vsing the world as thogh they vsed it not and particularly for those that haue riches that they make themselues friends of the vnrighteous Māmon for those that haue wit and wisedome that they be wise not in their generation but vnto regeneration for those that are indued with knowledge that they be not therby puffed vp but that they vse it vnto edification and so foorth of the rest For we are all of vs from the highest to the lowest but Gods stewards of such gifts graces and other good things which he lendeth vs and letteth vs haue for the tearme and time of our life to be disposed not according to our will and wish but for his aduantage and aduancement of the which we shall all at the last day of iudgement be called to a reckening when as our Sauiour shall say vnto euerie one of vs as the Lord vnto the vnrighteous steward in the Gospell Redde rationem villicationis tuae Render an account of thy Baylieweeke when as Iustice with equitie and iudgment with seueritie shall be ministred vnto vs. And thus much of the two former points of this first principall part of my text Of this hauing and of the persons that are heere said to haue Now therefore let vs go forward to the next that is to the thing that they are here said to haue which is said to be an ointment But ye haue an ointment Of many kindes of ointments read we in the Scriptures Manie kindes of ointments The first whereof as far as I can remember is that of Iacobs with which he annointed the Pillar which hoerected at Zuz when he consecrated and named it Bethel the house of God The second Bethel Gen. 6.28.18.31.13 that of Moises the oyle of holy ointment which God commanded him to make for matter of the principall spices namely of pure mirrh sweete Cynamon sweet Calamus Cassia and oyle oliue for forme after the art of the Apothecarie for vse to annoint the Tabernacle therewith The holy ointment the Arke of the testimonie the table the candlesticks the Altar of incense with all their implements yea and Aaron himselfe with his sonnes with an inhibition of not annointing any mans flesh therewith nor to make any composition like vnto it Ex. 30. Of the which ointment Dauid Psal 133. to the which brotherly loue is by him resembled where he calleth it the precious ointment which was powred on Aarons head The priests ointment and ranne downe on his beard and so to the skirts of his cloathing The semblable or the selfesame was that oyle or ointment with which the Kings and Priests of Israel were wont ro be annointed As that viole of oyle with which Samuel annointed Saul 1. Sam. 20.1 The Kings ointment And that horne of oyle with which the same Prophet annointed Dauid 1. Sam. 16.13 And that box of oyle with which one of the children of the Prophets annointed Iehu 2. Kin. 9.1 And finally as that ointment with which Elias annointed Elizeus 1. Kin. 19.16 Other ointments likewise we reade of as of a feasting ointment of which Dauid Thou shalt prepare a table before me against them that trouble me thou hast annointed my head with oile and my cuppe runneth ouer Psal 23.5 Where the Propheticall king or kingly prophet reckening vp his outward blessings princely pleasurs with which God had enriched him at his royall banquets among his ful dishes of delicates and plentifull bowles of wine for which he gaue the Lord thanks he had likewise no want of euerie precious ointment both for the refection of his body and the refreshing of his spirits all which he acknowledgeth to proceede from the diuine prouidence of God After the manner of the great Kings and Keysars of the world who for their more magnificēce at their pompous feasts wherein is all excesse are woont to haue three sorts of costly ointments as sumptuous as may be 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 The first 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which being liquid they vsed to drinke

were Aaron and his sonnes so called after they were so consecrated to minister before the Lord in the Priests office Exod. 30.30 And so are the Prophets of the Lord tearmed in those words of the Psalmist in the person of God himselfe Touch not mine annointed and doe my Prophets no harme the latter being put exegeticos expounding the former as who to be the Lordes annointed euen the Prophets Psal 105.15 Euen so doth this inward pure and precious ointment of the holy ghost of the which the other outward holy oyle was a type and figure consecrate and sanctifie the chosen children of God to bee vnto him spirituall Kings Priests and Prophets as wee are oftentimes so tearmed in the Scriptures As first king and priest so called by Peter A chosen generation a royall priesthood an holy nation a peculiar people 1. Pet. 2.9 out of the 19. Exod. 6. where the Lord promiseth to his people the children of Israel that he will make them a kingdome of Priests and an holy nation Againe by Iohn he hath made vs kings and priests vnto God euen his father Apoc. 1.6 As also Prophets as likewise Peter I will power out my spirit in the last daies vpon all flesh and your sonnes and daughters shall prophesie out of the Prophet Ioel 2.28 The elect and the faithfull shewing themselues to be such kings whē the kingdome of God is within them when Christ hath set vp his throne in their hearts and when they rule and raigne ouer sinne by the power of God the sword of the word and the Scepter of the spirit not onely making their appetite to be subiect to their reason and their will to their vnderstanding but also their outward man to be obedient to their inner man and the law of the members to the law of the spirit by macerating their lust and lustful bodies by mortifying their carnall and corrupt affections and by crucifying their fleshie and filthy lusts concupiscences and by giuing their members seruants vnto righteousnesse in holinesse and not as seruants to vncleannes to commit iniquitie Rom. 6.19 And such priests declare they themselues to be when they offer vp those Christian spirituall sacrifices which God requireth of them As first that whole burnt offring which Paul commendeth in giuing vp their bodies a liuing holy and acceptable sacrifice vnto God which is their reasonable seruing of God Rom. 12.1 And secondly the sacrifice of righteousnes which Dauid commandeth when he saith Offer the sacrifice of Righteousnesse and put your trust in the Lord Psal 4.5 Which sacrifice of righteousnesse is twofold of the hart whereof the prophet A sorrowfull spirit is a sacrifice to God a broken and contrite heart Lord shalt thou not despise Ps 51.17 And of the hands of which the Apostle To doe good and to distribute forget not for with such sacrifice the Lord is well pleased Heb. 13.16 And finally such Prophets doe they appeare to be when they search the Scripture as our Sauiour biddeth Ioh. 5.39 when they exhort one another daily while it is called to day as Paul warneth Heb. 3.13 and when they labour to growe vp more and more in grace and knowledge as Peter requireth 2. Epist 3.18 and last verse we see then how honourable holy and happy the estate of all the children of God is in being made partakers of this heauenly ointment in not onely bringing forth the former blessed fruits and effects as thereby to be made both valiant Champions and victorious conquerours ouer our spiritual and ghostly enemies and contraries to be refreshed and eased in the middest of our afflictions aduersities to be healed and helped of all the outward sicknesses of our bodies and inward sinnes of our soules to present vs as a sweet smelling sauour or odour in the nostrels of the Lord to giue vs a glad heart and a cheerefull countenance both before God and man The spirituall effect of this heauenly ointment and to consecrate vs Kings Priests and Prophets vnto God but also in bestowing vpon vs so high a dignitie priuiledge and prerogatiue as to make vs the elect vessels of such a diuine liquor whereby we may be worthily tearmed not the gally Pots for that is too base a name but rather the Allabaster boxes of so precious an ointment yea and to be no siluer shrines for that is too meane a mettall for such an excellent matter and that not of Danae the Image that came downe from Iupiter but indeede the golden Temples and Tabernacles of the holy ghost the spirit of God which discended downe from Iehoua himselfe This being that 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 of which first our Sauiour himselfe is called Christ and we next his members tearmed of the same Christians that glorious title wherein we haue cause to ioie and reioice for this is that precious ointment which Dauid figuratiuely prophesied should first be powred vpon Aarons head which is Christ and then fall downe vpon his Disciples and Apostles which were the goodly ornaments of the golden age of the Church Psal 133. and the beard as it were of Aarons body annexed to the Head Christ and lastly which ran downe to the skirts of his cloathing euen to the Preachers and teachers of the gospell which liue in this last age of the Church which are as it were the hemme of Aarons garment euen the lowest and least members of the Church and last ministers of Christ And not only vnto them but vnto all the number of the elect and faithfull in generall as being purfles and appurtenances of Aarons body the church and partaking as being the communion of Saints in proportion according to the measure of Gods gifts and graces of this holy and heauenly ointment The duetie therefore of vs all and euerie one of vs is this so to prepare our selues as that wee possesse our vessels in holinesse and purenesse As the Apostle warneth vs euen to purge our hearts from all Hypocrisie to cleanse our soules from all iniquitie and to purifie our mindes from all impietie that being washed with the water of regeneration perfumed with the incense of faith and seasoned with the salt of grace and sweetned with the fruits of charitie wee may be found fit vessels and sweet receptacles for so soueraigne an ointment For as new wine as our Sauiour saith in the gospell must be put in new vessels least that both perish so must this precious liquor be powred into new and pure vessels that both may be preserued For euen as the dead flies as Salomon saith doth cause to stincke and putrisie the ointment of the Apothecarie Eccl. 10.1 So doe the carnall affections of our mortall bodies corrupt and contaminate this spirituall ointment of the holy ghost by making it to be vnto vs not the sweete odour of life vnto life but the bitter sauour of death vnto death and to preuent it rather to our destruction and damnation then to conuert it to our soules health and
