be_v great_a and_o therefore_o deserve_v the_o most_o cruel_a death_n the_o second_o point_n follow_v namely_o what_o god_n be_v answer_n moses_n desire_v to_o see_v god_n face_n be_v not_o permit_v but_o to_o see_v his_o hinder_a part_n 32._o and_o therefore_o no_o man_n can_v be_v able_a to_o describe_v god_n by_o his_o nature_n but_o by_o his_o effect_n &_o property_n on_o this_o or_o such_o

how_o they_o bind_v he_o and_o take_v he_o away_o for_o the_o first_o before_o they_o enterprise_v this_o matter_n they_o do_v wise_o and_o wary_o lay_v their_o head_n together_o to_o consult_v of_o the_o time_n and_o place_n and_o also_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o apprehend_v he_o so_o s._n matthew_n say_v there_o assemble_v together_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o the_o scribe_n and_o the_o

he_o but_o god_n do_v so_o order_v the_o matter_n and_o dispose_v of_o their_o purpose_n and_o consultation_n that_o hereby_o he_o do_v both_o confound_v they_o and_o their_o nation_n for_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o heinous_a sin_n against_o christ_n come_v the_o just_a wrath_n of_o god_n upon_o they_o and_o so_o remain_v unto_o this_o day_n whereby_o we_o see_v that_o those_o which_o will_v be_v wise_a without_o the_o direction_n of_o god_n word_n and_o against_o christ_n the_o lord_n will_v overthrow_v they_o in_o their_o own_o wisdom_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o achitophel_n who_o for_o wisdom_n be_v as_o the_o oracle_n of_o god_n yet_o because_o he_o rebel_v against_o the_o lord_n anoint_v god_n confound_v he_o in_o his_o own_o wisdom_n for_o when_o his_o counseil_fw-fr which_o he_o give_v against_o david_n be_v not_o follow_v 17.23_o he_o think_v himself_o despise_v as_o the_o text_n say_v and_o saddle_v his_o ass_n and_o arise_v and_o go_v home_o into_o his_o city_n and_o put_v his_o household_n in_o order_n and_o hang_v himself_o wherein_o he_o show_v himself_o more_o senseless_a than_o a_o bruit_n beast_n and_o in_o our_o day_n the_o leaguer_n that_o

other_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v be_v wise_a we_o must_v learn_v to_o be_v wise_a in_o christ_n for_o else_o our_o counsel_n will_v be_v our_o own_o confusion_n second_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o if_o man_n will_v live_v in_o their_o stubbernnesse_n and_o rebellion_n against_o christ_n the_o lord_n will_v so_o carry_v and_o order_v those_o man_n or_o that_o people_n that_o they_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o own_o perdition_n this_o we_o may_v plain_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o these_o jew_n for_o they_o evermore_o envy_v christ_n and_o now_o they_o go_v on_o to_o take_v counsel_n against_o he_o but_o god_n so_o dispose_v of_o it_o that_o thereby_o they_o bring_v destruction_n upon_o themselves_o &_o theit_n country_n this_o must_v teach_v thou_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o thou_o live_v in_o thy_o sin_n for_o if_o thou_o do_v so_o the_o lord_n have_v many_o way_n to_o work_v thy_o confusion_n as_o thy_o conscience_n to_o condemn_v thou_o thy_o friend_n to_o

himself_o and_o indeed_o among_o god_n judgement_n there_o be_v none_o more_o fearful_a than_o this_o and_o how_o fearful_a soever_o it_o be_v it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v among_o we_o in_o these_o

when_o any_o man_n that_o put_v his_o whole_a confidence_n in_o god_n shall_v either_o in_o his_o own_o person_n in_o his_o good_a name_n or_o in_o his_o good_n feel_v the_o heavy_a hand_n of_o god_n god_n do_v not_o as_o a_o judge_n curse_v he_o but_o as_o a_o father_n correct_v he_o here_o then_o be_v condemn_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o hold_v that_o we_o by_o our_o

the_o crucify_a of_o christ_n two_o thing_n special_o must_v be_v consider_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o do_v of_o it_o and_o his_o continuance_n alive_a upon_o the_o cross_n touch_v the_o manner_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v note_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o that_o christ_n be_v crucify_v between_o two_o thief_n the_o one_o upon_o his_o left_a hand_n the_o other_o upon_o his_o right_n in_o which_o action_n be_v verify_v the_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n esay_n he_o be_v number_v among_o the_o wicked_a 53.6_o and_o the_o jew_n for_o their_o part_n do_v hereby_o testify_v that_o

upon_o the_o cross_n in_o our_o room_n and_o stead_n be_v repute_v the_o head_n and_o prince_n of_o all_o sinner_n it_o serve_v to_o teach_v every_o one_o of_o we_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o to_o

christ_n be_v crucify_v naked_a because_o he_o be_v strip_v of_o his_o garment_n by_o the_o soldier_n when_o he_o be_v to_o be_v crucify_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o suffer_v naked_a be_v these_o first_o adam_n by_o his_o fall_n bring_v upon_o all_o mankind_n death_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o also_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n which_o befall_v man_n in_o this_o life_n among_o which_o this_o be_v one_o that_o the_o nakedness_n of_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v ignominious_a and_o hereupon_o when_o adam_n have_v sin_v &_o see_v himself_o naked_a he_o flee_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n &_o hide_v himself_o even_o for_o very_a shame_n 8._o christ_n therefore_o be_v strip_v of_o his_o garment_n and_o suffer_v naked_a that_o he_o may_v bear_v all_o the_o punishment_n and_o

which_o be_v when_o a_o man_n have_v his_o sin_n lie_v open_a before_o god_n eye_n and_o by_o reason_n thereof_o he_o himself_o lie_v open_a to_o all_o god_n judgement_n hereof_o the_o angel_n speak_v

that_o sin_n and_o solomon_n say_v where_o there_o be_v no_o vision_n there_o the_o people_n be_v make_v naked_a that_o be_v 29.18_o their_o sin_n lie_v open_a before_o god_n and_o by_o reason_n

and_o also_o give_v unto_o we_o meet_v garment_n to_o clothe_v we_o withal_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n call_v white_a raiment_n 3.18_o as_o christ_n say_v i_o counsel_v thou_o to_o buy_v of_o
