he_o be_v a_o rewarder_n of_o those_o that_o do_v well_o by_o consequent_a they_o acknowledge_v his_o providence_n and_o by_o consequence_n hereof_o they_o believe_v that_o god_n have_v a_o mean_n

the_o scripture_n or_o else_o if_o you_o can_v except_v against_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v speak_v reply_n trau_n reply_v why_o by_o such_o interpretation_n you_o may_v make_v any_o thing_n

to_o make_v man_n err_v but_o because_o you_o shall_v not_o hereafter_o thus_o wind_n out_o of_o matter_n i_o will_v now_o instance_n in_o such_o plain_a and_o evident_a place_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o you_o can_v deny_v without_o impudency_n but_o that_o they_o be_v most_o false_a since_o in_o yourself_o you_o have_v by_o experience_n prove_v they_o to_o be_v so_o the_o place_n be_v these_o where_o christ_n say_v 15._o joh._n 15._o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o if_o you_o ask_v any_o thing_n in_o my_o name_n of_o my_o father_n 21._o math._n 21._o he_o will_v give_v it_o you_o and_o in_o a_o other_o place_n ask_v what_o you_o will_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v give_v you_o and_o in_o a_o other_o place_n all_o thing_n whatsoever_o you_o ask_v not_o in_o doubt_v you_o shall_v receive_v i_o must_v believe_v that_o i_o shall_v have_v they_o else_o i_o shall_v not_o receive_v they_o and_o hereupon_o when_o i_o live_v here_o in_o oxford_n in_o very_o mean_a &_o base_a estate_n yet_o i_o confess_v i_o never_o bear_v a_o base_a mind_n it_o grieve_v i_o much_o i_o be_v very_o desirous_a to_o be_v advance_v therefore_o at_o that_o time_n think_v those_o word_n of_o christ_n true_a in_o a_o blind_a simplicity_n i_o pray_v long_o and_o often_o to_o be_v in_o better_a estate_n but_o for_o all_o my_o devotion_n i_o be_v never_o the_o better_a when_o i_o see_v that_o i_o begin_v a_o better_a course_n to_o provide_v for_o myself_o and_o use_v such_o mean_n whereby_o now_o i_o be_o in_o good_a estate_n and_o i_o mean_v to_o better_v it_o have_v i_o not_o take_v this_o course_n here_o in_o oxford_n i_o may_v have_v yet_o be_v pray_v and_o believe_v and_o never_o the_o better_a and_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v i_o believe_v your_o own_o experience_n this_o be_v so_o why_o shall_v i_o take_v that_o for_o truth_n which_o all_o man_n by_o experience_n in_o themselves_o and_o other_o have_v always_o find_v to_o be_v most_o false_a stud._n whereas_o you_o say_v that_o by_o interpretation_n i_o may_v make_v any_o thing_n true_a it_o be_v not_o so_o no_o interpretation_n can_v make_v that_o which_o be_v indeed_o true_a to_o be_v false_a or_o that_o which_o be_v false_a true_a word_n can_v alter_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n and_o make_v truth_n falsehood_n or_o falsehood_n truth_n whereas_o in_o scorn_n you_o demand_v whether_o god_n do_v delight_n to_o make_v man_n err_v because_o many_o thing_n in_o the_o scripture_n be_v hard_a to_o be_v understand_v you_o be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n have_v appoint_v a_o general_a day_n of_o judgement_n wherein_o the_o deed_n of_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v judge_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n and_o therefore_o before_o hand_n have_v so_o temper_v thing_n that_o all_o man_n in_o their_o deed_n may_v show_v what_o they_o be_v when_o the_o lord_n give_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n unto_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n he_o may_v have_v destroy_v all_o the_o canaanite_n when_o he_o bring_v the_o israelite_n first_o into_o the_o land_n 3._o judg._n 3._o but_o he_o do_v not_o that_o by_o those_o canaanite_n which_o be_v leave_v alive_a in_o the_o land_n 15._o deut._n 15._o the_o heart_n of_o the_o israelite_n may_v be_v manifest_v to_o try_v whether_o they_o will_v be_v draw_v to_o idolatrye_a to_o try_v whether_o they_o will_v enter_v into_o league_n and_o familiarity_n or_o no_o with_o the_o canaanite_n the_o which_o be_v precise_o forbid_v they_o so_o likewise_o god_n can_v have_v make_v the_o scripture_n in_o all_o place_n so_o easy_a that_o it_o shall_v nor_o need_v any_o interpreter_n but_o he_o have_v not_o to_o try_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n these_o hard_a place_n of_o the_o scripture_n they_o who_o be_v of_o a_o humble_a spirit_n seek_v to_o understand_v with_o humility_n &_o reverence_n because_o god_n have_v command_v they_o to_o read_v the_o scripture_n &_o make_v it_o their_o study_n that_o out_o of_o it_o they_o may_v know_v what_o be_v his_o will_n all_o they_o therefore_o who_o be_v desirous_a to_o obey_v his_o will_n will_v read_v his_o word_n that_o they_o may_v know_v what_o his_o will_n be_v reveal_v in_o his_o word_n that_o they_o may_v do_v it_o and_o observe_v it_o if_o they_o meet_v with_o any_o difficult_a place_n to_o be_v understand_v they_o will_v not_o presume_v to_o censure_v it_o or_o as_o you_o &_o the_o like_a draw_v it_o to_o a_o absurdity_n but_o acknowledge_v that_o weakness_n of_o their_o capacity_n they_o learn_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n that_o many_o thing_n there_o in_o contain_v be_v not_o write_v for_o every_o man_n understanding_n but_o be_v reserve_v unto_o their_o due_a time_n in_o which_o god_n have_v appoint_v they_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o many_o prophecy_n both_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o new_a 12.9_o dan._n 12.9_o the_o understanding_n whereof_o be_v not_o know_v before_o the_o thing_n prophesy_v of_o be_v perform_v that_o man_n compare_v the_o event_n of_o thing_n with_o the_o former_a prophecy_n may_v see_v that_o thing_n come_v not_o to_o pass_v by_o chance_n since_o such_o event_n be_v foretell_v that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v many_o
