have_v promise_v not_o to_o quench_v the_o smoke_a flax_n and_o break_v the_o bruise_a reed_n undoubted_o he_o will_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o honour_n to_o be_v under_o the_o government_n of_o christ_n so_o rational_o and_o sweet_o he_o draw_v we_o with_o the_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n it_o be_v the_o government_n of_o a_o husband_n and_o of_o a_o wise_a husband_n i_o do_v but_o give_v a_o

we_o come_v sweet_o under_o christ_n government_n we_o need_v fear_v nothing_o he_o that_o fear_v christ_n all_o thing_n fear_v he_o since_o christ_n have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o the_o

nature_n then_o he_o be_v such_o a_o king_n as_o we_o may_v be_v secure_a under_o he_o as_o a_o universal_a king_n over_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o may_v be_v king_n over_o his_o church_n for_o he_o have_v all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n mat._n 28._o all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o i_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o for_o the_o government_n of_o his_o church_n it_o be_v our_o security_n to_o be_v under_o he_o that_o govern_v all_o thing_n for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n he_o say_v john_n 17._o thou_o have_v give_v i_o power_n over_o all_o flesh_n christ_n have_v all_o power_n give_v to_o he_o in_o relation_n to_o his_o church_n therefore_o he_o have_v power_n over_o the_o devil_n over_o hell_n and_o over_o all_o wicked_a man_n and_o all_o monarch_n and_o opposite_a power_n be_v subject_a to_o he_o that_o they_o shall_v serve_v the_o church_n when_o they_o do_v scourge_v the_o church_n they_o be_v but_o christ_n rod_n they_o be_v but_o instrumental_a to_o christ_n they_o do_v but_o his_o work_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o great_a security_n and_o we_o need_v to_o fear_v none_o if_o we_o be_v under_o christ._n again_o to_o go_v on_o as_o it_o be_v our_o honour_n and_o security_n so_o it_o be_v a_o spring_n of_o duty_n christ_n be_v

much_o perhaps_o out_o of_o principle_n of_o self_n love_n desire_v he_o to_o be_v we_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n while_o we_o live_v therefore_o let_v we_o submit_v to_o his_o government_n and_o
