think_v what_o cause_n we_o have_v to_o glorify_v and_o magnify_v god_n our_o father_n see_v that_o we_o see_v he_o be_v come_v to_o elect_v and_o choose_v we_o from_o amongst_o all_o other_o not_o only_o to_o be_v his_o servant_n but_o also_o to_o be_v his_o child_n and_o to_o be_v king_n and_o heir_n of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o that_o he_o leave_v a_o great_a number_n of_o other_o that_o be_v wise_a rich_a and_o that_o bear_v a_o great_a show_n than_o we_o to_o put_v the_o treasure_n of_o his_o grace_n into_o so_o poor_a vessel_n of_o earth_n as_o we_o be_v so_o vile_a so_o base_a so_o weak_a so_o frail_a and_o brittle_a and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v great_o to_o fear_v sect._n sect._n to_o abuse_v this_o great_a goodness_n of_o god_n towards_o we_o and_o the_o gift_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o we_o must_v take_v good_a heed_n we_o hide_v they_o not_o in_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o slothful_a and_o unfaithful_a servant_n do_v hide_v his_o talon_n but_o as_o the_o other_o good_a and_o faithful_a servant_n do_v we_o must_v put_v they_o to_o some_o use_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o may_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n to_o their_o master_n and_o lord_n who_o to_o this_o end_n have_v pu●_n they_o into_o our_o hand_n for_o why_o do_v god_n call_v we_o into_o his_o service_n but_o to_o serve_v he_o why_o do_v god_n communicate_v his_o grace_n unto_o we_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v employ_v they_o to_o his_o honour_n and_o glory_n and_o to_o the_o edify_n of_o his_o church_n how_o can_v we_o be_v god_n servant_n and_o remain_v idle_a in_o his_o house_n and_o do_v nothing_o but_o which_o be_v worse_o how_o will_n he_o suffer_v we_o there_o if_o in_o steed_n of_o serve_v christ_n jesus_n we_o serve_v antichrist_n and_o the_o devil_n his_o adversary_n let_v we_o therefore_o remember_v that_o which_o the_o lord_n say_v to_o he_o that_o have_v it_o shall_v be_v give_v and_o to_o he_o that_o have_v nothing_o it_o shall_v be_v take_v from_o he_o even_o that_o he_o have_v we_o see_v this_o by_o experience_n before_o our_o eye_n everye_o day_n to_o come_v to_o pass_v we_o see_v sect._n sect._n how_o god_n increase_v his_o grace_n towards_o they_o which_o use_v they_o as_o they_o ought_v and_o how_o on_o the_o contrary_n he_o deprive_v they_o thereof_o which_o abuse_v they_o and_o how_o he_o give_v they_o up_o into_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n for_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n but_o give_v the_o honour_n which_o appertain_v to_o he_o only_o to_o creature_n and_o idol_n wherefore_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o marvel_v if_o we_o see_v many_o to_o who_o god_n have_v give_v some_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n which_o become_v godless_a &_o mocker_n of_o holy_a scripture_n &_o to_o become_v as_o dog_n to_o eat_v that_o which_o they_o once_o vomit_v and_o as_o swine_n to_o wallow_v themselves_o in_o the_o mire_n and_o filth_n out_o of_o the_o which_o god_n have_v draw_v they_o we_o can_v doubt_v but_o such_o a_o curse_n be_v the_o most_o horrible_a &_o most_o fearful_a judgement_n of_o god_n which_o can_v come_v to_o man_n it_o be_v the_o judgement_n which_o he_o be_v wont_v to_o execute_v upon_o the_o ingrateful_a and_o contemner_n of_o his_o word_n and_o blasphemer_n of_o his_o grace_n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o neither_o dally_v of_o he_o nor_o with_o he_o let_v we_o hearken_v how_o the_o apostle_n warn_v we_o let_v we_o not_o abuse_v ourselves_o for_o god_n can_v neither_o be_v delude_v nor_o mock_v and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o walk_v with_o sect._n sect._n he_o in_o all_o fear_n honour_n and_o reverence_n let_v we_o make_v our_o profit_n of_o his_o severe_a judgement_n which_o he_o set_v before_o our_o eye_n as_o in_o a_o glass_n when_o he_o punish_v so_o sharp_o those_o which_o after_o they_o have_v know_v he_o have_v forsake_v he_o and_o despise_v his_o word_n let_v we_o beware_v we_o esteem_v not_o light_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v command_v or_o forbid_v but_o let_v we_o fear_v to_o offend_v he_o in_o any_o thing_n whatsoever_o either_o in_o omit_v that_o which_o he_o have_v command_v we_o to_o do_v or_o in_o do_v that_o which_o he_o have_v forbid_v let_v we_o look_v more_o to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o sect._n sect._n law_n maker_n and_o to_o his_o will_n then_o to_o the_o naked_a law_n and_o let_v we_o judge_v thereof_o according_a to_o his_o will_n and_o not_o according_a to_o our_o own_o let_v we_o consider_v with_o ourselves_o that_o we_o can_v transgress_v the_o left_a commandment_n that_o ever_o he_o give_v without_o despise_v his_o majesty_n and_o authority_n for_o if_o we_o regard_v not_o his_o commandment_n we_o declare_v manifest_o thereby_o that_o we_o fear_v he_o not_o but_o that_o we_o dally_v with_o he_o as_o though_o we_o hold_v he_o in_o our_o sleeve_n to_o do_v with_o he_o as_o please_v we_o or_o else_o we_o give_v to_o understand_v that_o we_o will_v correct_v he_o as_o not_o well_o advise_v and_o as_o though_o he_o have_v fail_v either_o in_o command_v or_o forbid_v thing_n unworthy_a to_o be_v command_v or_o forbid_v ought_v this_o arrogancy_n &_o presumption_n &_o despise_v of_o god_n his_o authority_n to_o be_v esteem_v a_o small_a fault_n be_v it_o not_o great_a than_o high_a treason_n see_v that_o the_o majesty_n and_o authority_n of_o god_n pass_v all_o authority_n and_o excellency_n of_o man_n what_o less_o punishment_n then_o can_v he_o deserve_v then_o death_n and_o eternal_a damnation_n if_o god_n will_v condemn_v he_o according_a to_o the_o rigour_n of_o his_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o my_o brethren_n we_o must_v take_v himself_o sect._n seduce_v of_o himself_o good_a heed_n that_o we_o deceive_v not_o ourselves_o or_o that_o we_o suffer_v not_o ourselves_o to_o be_v easy_o seduce_v by_o other_o which_o may_v be_v among_o we_o for_o many_o do_v boast_v of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n which_o notwithstanding_o make_v no_o great_a conscience_n to_o do_v contrary_a to_o his_o will_n in_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o no_o small_a importance_n which_o notwithstanding_o seem_v to_o they_o very_o small_a because_o they_o persuade_v themselves_o so_o and_o that_o they_o judge_v thereof_o according_a to_o their_o own_o affection_n but_o if_o they_o do_v judge_v of_o they_o according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o shall_v know_v that_o they_o be_v very_o unpleasant_a &_o detestable_a before_o god_n &_o of_o that_o nature_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o he_o do_v more_o abhor_v &_o detest_v nor_o that_o he_o have_v punish_v more_o grievous_o at_o all_o time_n it_o be_v not_o a_o small_a matter_n to_o provoke_v god_n to_o anger_n and_o we_o can_v more_o provoke_v he_o then_o by_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n which_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o other_o evil_n and_o a_o sin_n which_o do_v estrange_v and_o draw_v we_o whole_o from_o god_n let_v we_o not_o abuse_v
