and_o yet_o the_o papist_n set_v all_o their_o holiness_n therein_o again_o they_o have_v invent_v sacrament_n of_o their_o own_o brain_n as_o their_o sacrament_n of_o conformation_n as_o they_o

to_o be_v say_v of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o read_v of_o in_o this_o text_n where_o moses_n break_v the_o two_o table_n which_o thing_n he_o do_v not_o through_o hasty_a mood_n but_o as_o lead_v

that_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o angry_a and_o that_o he_o shall_v on_o god_n behalf_n break_v and_o disannul_v the_o covenant_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v he_o mean_v to_o banish_v the_o people_n from_o

to_o abase_v themselves_o utter_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n find_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o they_o why_o he_o shall_v choose_v they_o but_o that_o all_o come_v of_o his_o own_o free_a goodness_n

what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o must_v come_v back_o to_o this_o lesson_n of_o saint_n paul_n 1._o 2._o cor._n 5_o 1._o that_o if_o our_o outward_a man_n decay_n we_o have_v a_o building_n

they_o be_v but_o as_o arbour_n make_v of_o leave_n which_o be_v of_o no_o continuance_n one_o blast_n of_o wind_n will_v blow_v they_o quite_o and_o clean_o down_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o walk_v in_o lowliness_n and_o lift_v our_o mind_n aloft_o for_o we_o have_v promise_v that_o there_o we_o shall_v be_v immortal_a &_o uncorruptible_a and_o we_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v compare_v to_o arbour_n of_o leaf_n which_o be_v of_o no_o continuance_n for_o take_v i_o the_o strong_a body_n in_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o can_v the_o force_n

for_o as_o much_o as_o man_n be_v natural_o give_v to_o superstition_n &_o seem_v to_o seek_v even_o wilful_o to_o be_v beguile_v god_n here_o do_v first_o withdraw_v we_o from_o all_o error_n and_o

it_o not_o a_o thing_n that_o ought_v to_o make_v we_o afraid_a yes_o and_o this_o do_v we_o to_o understande_v that_o when_o sword_n be_v once_o draw_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v horrible_a

he_o intend_v to_o set_v down_o here_o the_o perfect_a law_n of_o arm_n that_o can_v be_v among_o man_n then_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o if_o war_n be_v once_o kindle_v there_o be_v no_o remedy_n to_o appease_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v man_n to_o have_v the_o more_o stay_n of_o themselves_o before_o hand_n and_o to_o consider_v thus_o what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o come_v to_o

and_o bethink_v they_o thus_o what_o peradventure_o i_o must_v come_v to_o the_o sack_n of_o a_o city_n and_o so_o from_o one_o to_o another_o and_o battle_n upon_o battle_n shall_v be_v fight_v

in_o hand_n sure_o they_o will_v deal_v much_o more_o myldly_a than_o they_o do_v but_o if_o they_o benefit_n not_o themselves_o thereby_o yet_o let_v we_o look_v to_o ourselves_o and_o consider_v that_o the_o mischief_n which_o our_o lord_n show_v we_o to_o be_v in_o war_n may_v also_o befall_v to_o private_a person_n for_o when_o two_o man_n fall_v at_o variance_n and_o run_v out_o into_o heat_n of_o evil_a speech_n stripe_n will_v ensue_v of_o it_o and_o when_o sword_n be_v once_o draw_v bloodshed_n do_v lyght_o follow_v after_o and_o in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v no_o lawfulness_n at_o all_o it_o be_v not_o as_o when_o god_n give_v man_n leave_v to_o kill_v their_o enemy_n in_o battle_n for_o whosever_v slea_v a_o man_n for_o any_o private_a quarrel_n be_v a_o murderer_n so_o then_o we_o must_v look_v neerely_a to_o ourselves_o and_o eschew_v quarrel_n and_o debate_n the_o more_o know_v that_o it_o be_v a_o give_v way_n and_o a_o open_n of_o a_o gap_n to_o satan_n that_o

we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o this_o text_n be_v that_o see_v god_n have_v give_v leave_n as_o it_o be_v of_o force_n and_o necessity_n to_o kill_v such_o as_o resist_v the_o assault_n of_o a_o

the_o shed_n of_o blood_n for_o if_o we_o be_v slay_v in_o any_o such_o fray_n unhappy_a be_v we_o and_o if_o we_o chance_v to_o slay_v our_o adversary_n unhappy_a be_v we_o so_o too_o for_o we_o see_v that_o god_n spirit_n bear_v not_o the_o sway_n in_o that_o case_n true_a it_o be_v that_o if_o a_o man_n that_o be_v assault_v do_v slay_v he_o that_o assault_v he_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o it_o neither_o ought_v he_o to_o be_v but_o yet_o be_v he_o not_o excusable_a before_o god._n for_o why_o who_o be_v he_o that_o can_v so_o bridle_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v not_o inflame_v with_o choler_n or_o with_o some_o excessive_a and_o inordinate_a passion_n see_v then_o that_o such_o thing_n do_v reign_v in_o we_o we_o be_v blame_v worthy_a though_o we_o have_v just_a

quiet_a mind_n so_o as_o we_o proceed_v not_o into_o such_o extremity_n as_o to_o commit_v manslaughter_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o prevent_v satan_n and_o to_o seek_v mean_n of_o atonement_n that_o our_o quarrel_n may_v not_o proceed_v into_o shed_v of_o blood_n beside_o this_o we_o have_v also_o one_o other_o lesson_n to_o gather_v namely_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o agreement_n among_o we_o or_o any_o mean_a of_o reconcilement_n whereas_o we_o be_v deadly_a enemy_n before_o the_o cause_n thereof_o be_v that_o god_n stablish_v a_o holy_a brotherhood_n among_o we_o

we_o receyve_v not_o the_o say_a message_n then_o must_v great_a war_n be_v proclaim_v against_o we_o than_o ever_o there_o be_v afore_o and_o therefore_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v to_o

neither_o behove_v it_o we_o alone_o to_o show_v our_o zeal_n in_o punish_v of_o great_a enormity_n but_o also_o to_o consider_v that_o small_a fault_n draw_v on_o the_o great_a when_o they_o be_v

the_o practice_n nowadays_o run_v clean_o contrary_a for_o man_n seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o lessen_v their_o fault_n in_o deed_n a_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v altogether_o excuse_v when_o he_o have_v offend_v but_o yet_o nevertheless_o he_o which_o do_v the_o wrong_n shall_v find_v always_o some_o advocate_n to_o plead_v for_o he_o yea_o even_o without_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o it_o he_o ought_v to_o be_v as_o a_o judge_n in_o the_o case_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v so_o mitigate_v the_o fault_n as_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v punishable_a fair_a gloss_n shall_v still_o be_v find_v to_o

of_o man_n fault_n shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o why_o they_o be_v not_o find_v so_o grievous_a and_o heinous_a as_o they_o be_v in_o deed_n no_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o y_fw-mi it_o if_o the_o

you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n now_o whereas_o god_n speak_v thus_o unto_o earthly_a judge_n let_v we_o know_v that_o for_o his_o part_n he_o may_v well_o punish_v we_o by_o his_o justice_n and_o that_o not_o for_o petty_a fault_n but_o for_o notorious_a transgression_n who_o be_v so_o just_a and_o innocent_a among_o we_o that_o he_o find_v not_o himself_o faulty_a before_o god_n yea_o and_o that_o in_o many_o offence_n moreover_o how_o many_o fault_n do_v we_o commit_v through_o unaduisednesse_n when_o we_o think_v not_o on_o they_o and_o therefore_o if_o god_n use_v not_o great_a mercy_n towards_o we_o he_o shall_v lift_v up_o his_o hand_n against_o we_o and_o drown_v we_o in_o the_o pit_n of_o destruction_n every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n so_o than_o whereas_o we_o live_v still_o and_o be_v preserve_v let_v we_o acknowledge_v that_o it_o be_v through_o the_o infinite_a goodness_n of_o our_o god_n for_o if_o as_o touch_v earthly_a justice_n he_o command_v the_o least_o fault_n to_o be_v punish_v he_o may_v himself_o by_o great_a reason_n lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o we_o even_o to_o root_v we_o out_o of_o the_o earth_n especial_o consider_v the_o infinite_a number_n of_o fault_n whereof_o we_o be_v guilty_a before_o he_o and_o if_o it_o be_v allege_v well_o then_o see_v god_n be_v so_o merciful_a ought_v not_o man_n also_o to_o be_v merciful_a and_o so_o to_o follow_v he_o it_o be_v easy_o answer_v that_o god_n have_v this_o liberty_n to_o forgive_v who_o he_o will_v beside_o this_o
when_o god_n publish_v and_o set_v forth_o his_o law_n he_o respect_v not_o what_o we_o can_v do_v or_o what_o our_o power_n or_o ability_n be_v but_o what_o we_o owe_v unto_o he_o therefore_o when_o he_o say_v you_o shall_v serve_v i_o by_o keep_v my_o statute_n with_o all_o your_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o your_o soul_n he_o speak_v not_o according_a to_o our_o ability_n he_o know_v full_a well_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o compass_v it_o we_o be_v far_o wide_o from_o it_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v bind_v unto_o he_o and_o there_o be_v good_a right_n why_o he_o shall_v require_v his_o due_n although_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o perform_v it_o for_o whence_o come_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o corruptness_n of_o our_o nature_n see_v it_o be_v so_o then_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o god_n must_v not_o be_v bar_v of_o his_o right_n and_o therefore_o although_o man_n can_v not_o whole_o discharge_v themselves_o yet_o god_n cease_v not_o to_o say_v you_o owe_v i_o this_o and_o therefore_o do_v it_o now_o whereas_o the_o law_n be_v in_o such_o sort_n give_v unto_o we_o we_o be_v so_o far_o unable_a to_o perform_v it_o that_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o have_v one_o good_a thought_n only_o to_o begin_v 3.5_o â—_o cor._n 3.5_o much_o less_o have_v we_o any_o right_a affection_n to_o stir_v one_o finger_n to_o do_v it_o that_o be_v

we_o let_v we_o know_v that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n want_v in_o our_o duty_n yet_o shall_v it_o not_o come_v into_o account_n but_o god_n will_v accept_v of_o the_o service_n which_o we_o yield_v unto_o he_o so_o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o free_a and_o sincere_a mind_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o this_o place_n be_v that_o god_n will_v be_v serve_v not_o by_o piece_n meal_n nor_o by_o force_n or_o constraint_n but_o of_o a_o pure_a and_o free-hearted_a devotion_n and_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n moreover_o let_v we_o note_v that_o we_o can_v discharge_v ourselves_o of_o all_o that_o which_o we_o owe_v he_o and_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n we_o can_v not_o any_o way_n begin_v but_o whereas_o he_o have_v publish_v his_o law_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o man_n and_o have_v cause_v it_o to_o be_v set_v down_o in_o write_v he_o must_v also_o write_v it_o in_o our_o heart_n as_o he_o

against_o he_o and_o we_o never_o come_v to_o the_o perfect_a and_o substantial_a serve_v of_o he_o which_o be_v set_v down_o here_o we_o must_v therefore_o always_o bewail_v ourselves_o crave_v

unto_o he_o that_z y_z e_z land_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a heritage_n whereunto_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n be_v to_o attain_v here_o therefore_o we_o have_v a_o sure_a record_n that_o although_o
