have_v sin_v it_o away_o yet_o there_o be_v the_o natural_a image_n of_o god_n and_o that_o remain_v in_o all_o of_o you_o for_o what_o be_v natural_a light_n knowledge_n understanding_n what_o be_v skill_n to_o discern_v and_o wisdom_n to_o choose_v what_o be_v all_o the_o intellective_a and_o elective_a power_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o man_n and_o what_o be_v this_o image_n for_o but_o in_o order_n to_o recover_v that_o which_o be_v lose_v it_o be_v to_o capacitate_v we_o to_o know_v god_n to_o seek_v he_o to_o choose_v he_o to_o live_v to_o he_o here_o that_o so_o we_o may_v for_o ever_o enjoy_v he_o and_o if_o we_o do_v not_o make_v this_o our_o chief_a work_n we_o be_v make_v in_o vain_a and_o degenerate_a into_o brute_n be_v whole_o act_v by_o sense_n and_o the_o design_n of_o this_o image_n be_v lose_v for_o by_o partake_v of_o his_o likeness_n we_o become_v bind_v to_o his_o law_n three_o that_o power_n that_o create_v we_o at_o first_o do_v create_v we_o every_o day_n you_o be_v make_v of_o god_n every_o day_n for_o preservation_n be_v a_o continue_a creation_n as_o he_o give_v life_n so_o he_o hold_v our_o soul_n in_o life_n if_o god_n

and_o support_v from_o he_o and_o shall_v we_o not_o pay_v respect_n to_o he_o this_o violate_v the_o very_a law_n of_o nature_n and_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o wonder_n therefore_o god_n do_v summons_n heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o hear_v his_o complaint_n against_o such_o rebel_n isa_n 1.2_o hear_v o_o heaven_n and_o give_v ear_n o_o earth_n say_v god_n but_o why_o do_v he_o summon_v these_o why_o first_o to_o rebuke_n and_o shame_v the_o stupidity_n of_o his_o people_n that_o the_o senseless_a creature_n be_v more_o like_a to_o hear_v god_n speak_v than_o they_o second_o to_o show_v that_o these_o creature_n by_o which_o god_n have_v do_v they_o much_o good_a may_v well_o bear_v witness_n on_o his_o behalf_n against_o their_o ingratitude_n three_o to_o convince_v they_o how_o stupendous_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v that_o god_n complain_v of_o against_o they_o even_o such_o as_o the_o senseless_a creature_n may_v stand_v amaze_v to_o hear_v be_v they_o capable_a of_o that_o sense_n and_o what_o be_v the_o complaint_n that_o god_n make_v here_o it_o be_v twofold_a the_o one_o be_v horrid_a ingratitude_n the_o other_o be_v transcendent_a brutishness_n first_o horrid_a ingratitude_n hear_v o_o heaven_n and_o give_v ear_n o_o earth_n what_o must_v they_o hear_v why_o what_o god_n have_v to_o say_v against_o this_o people_n the_o lord_n have_v say_v i_o have_v nourish_v and_o bring_v up_o child_n and_o they_o have_v rebel_v against_o i_o for_o any_o of_o we_o parent_n to_o bring_v forth_o and_o breed_v up_o child_n and_o after_o all_o our_o trouble_n cost_n and_o care_n when_o they_o be_v come_v to_o year_n of_o knowledge_n not_o to_o own_v we_o nay_o when_o they_o be_v grow_v to_o be_v man_n to_o turn_v to_o be_v rebel_n to_o violate_v such_o bond_n and_o break_v such_o strong_a tie_n heaven_n and_o earth_n may_v well_o cry_v out_o against_o they_o why_o this_o be_v my_o case_n say_v god_n i_o make_v these_o child_n i_o maintain_v they_o i_o bring_v they_o up_o at_o my_o cost_n and_o yet_o after_o all_o they_o will_v not_o know_v i_o they_o will_v not_o own_o i_n instead_o of_o choose_v i_o they_o turn_v their_o back_n upon_o i_o and_o turn_v rebel_n against_o i_o they_o have_v not_o a_o bit_n of_o bread_n to_o eat_v but_o as_o i_o feed_v they_o nor_o a_o rag_n to_o wear_v but_o as_o i_o clothe_v they_o it_o be_v my_o wool_n and_o my_o flax_n yet_o i_o be_o forget_v and_o the_o very_a law_n of_o nature_n break_v thus_o god_n complain_v of_o their_o base_a ingratitude_n second_o he_o complain_v of_o their_o transcendent_a brutishness_n which_o be_v such_o that_o it_o outdo_v the_o most_o brutish_a among_o brute_n the_o ox_n and_o the_o ass_n be_v reckon_v among_o the_o dull_a and_o most_o stupid_a creature_n yet_o say_v god_n they_o be_v worse_o than_o these_o for_o the_o ox_n know_v his_o owner_n and_o the_o ass_n his_o master_n crib_n but_o israel_n do_v not_o know_v i_o my_o people_n do_v not_o consider_v these_o beast_n as_o stupid_a as_o they_o be_v yet_o they_o after_o their_o kind_a own_v they_o that_o feed_v they_o and_o be_v ready_a at_o all_o time_n to_o submit_v to_o and_o serve_v they_o yet_o say_v god_n they_o will_v not_o own_v i_o nay_o say_v god_n they_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o consider_v what_o i_o have_v do_v for_o they_o that_o thereby_o they_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o own_o and_o serve_v i_o my_o people_n do_v not_o consider_v four_o he_o that_o make_v we_o can_v unmake_v we_o he_o that_o give_v we_o our_o be_v can_v turn_v we_o into_o nothing_o he_o that_o create_v we_o can_v destroy_v we_o he_o who_o breathe_v thy_o soul_n into_o thy_o body_n can_v take_v it_o away_o and_o throw_v it_o into_o hell_n and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a argument_n our_o lord_n christ_n make_v use_v of_o mat._n 10.28_o fear_v he_o who_o be_v able_a to_o cast_v body_n and_o soul_n into_o hell_n all_o these_o argument_n do_v result_v from_o the_o relation_n we_o stand_v in_o to_o god_n as_o he_o be_v our_o creator_n he_o make_v we_o he_o make_v we_o after_o his_o own_o image_n he_o make_v we_o continual_o by_o preserve_v we_o and_o he_o that_o make_v we_o can_v destroy_v we_o and_o will_v you_o forget_v your_o maker_n this_o will_v provoke_v he_o when_o they_o that_o be_v make_v by_o he_o seek_v not_o after_o he_o none_o say_v where_o be_v god_n my_o maker_n job_n 35._o v._o
