shall_v have_v deep_o consider_v of_o these_o thing_n we_o must_v pray_v unto_o god_n and_o beseech_v he_o to_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o remedy_n of_o all_o the_o misery_n whereunto_o we_o be_v

never_o understand_v one_o word_n of_o that_o which_o be_v teach_v they_o and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n forsooth_o we_o shall_v be_v continual_o unable_a to_o any_o goodness_n without_o god_n shall_v first_o correct_v this_o ignorance_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o ought_v great_o to_o humble_a us._n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o our_o hear_n of_o whatsoever_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o will_v be_v to_o no_o purpose_n and_o that_o because_o it_o be_v speak_v as_o unto_o a_o block_n until_o such_o time_n as_o god_n take_v away_o the_o grossness_n of_o our_o corrupt_a

condemn_v the_o ignorance_n of_o the_o apostle_n they_o their_o own_o word_n for_o the_o question_n which_o they_o ask_v jesus_n christ_n be_v foolish_a &_o of_o no_o valour_n but_o only_o a_o superfluous_a curiosity_n whenas_o they_o say_v unto_o he_o will_v thou_o at_o this_o time_n restore_fw-mi the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n now_o by_o say_v at_o this_o time_n they_o declare_v that_o they_o will_v even_o at_o the_o first_o dash_n have_v come_v to_o honour_n without_o any_o more_o pain_n take_v &_o whereas_o they_o be_v call_v to_o take_v pain_n for_o the_o plant_v of_o the_o gospel_n throughout_o the_o world_n they_o will_v in_o no_o wise_a away_o with_o that_o but_o be_v forth_o with_o fill_v with_o all_o manner_n of_o prosperity_n with_o be_v a_o double_a fault_n beside_o when_o they_o speak_v of_o the_o kingdom_n they_o nail_v also_o in_o that_o for_o they_o think_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v have_v be_v a_o earthly_a king_n and_o reign_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o worldly_a prince_n and_o so_o they_o be_v near_o about_o he_o shall_v take_v no_o pain_n nor_o have_v any_o harm_n but_o live_v honourable_o with_o great_a office_n and_o in_o high_a dignity_n and_o they_o fail_v also_o in_o name_v of_o israel_n because_o they_o restrain_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o israel_n which_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o all_o the_o world_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o they_o speak_v never_o a_o word_n which_o be_v not_o false_a and_o erroneous_a moreover_o jesus_n christ_n reprove_v they_o with_o the_o answer_n which_o he_o make_v they_o and_o although_o he_o say_v not_o flat_o you_o be_v deceive_v yet_o the_o word_n which_o he_o use_v declare_v no_o less_o but_o that_o he_o speak_v they_o to_o their_o reproof_n when_o as_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o you_o to_o know_v the_o time_n and_o the_o season_n which_o the_o father_n have_v put_v in_o his_o own_o power_n he_o reprove_v they_o of_o this_o fond_a curiosity_n for_o where_o they_o shall_v have_v inquire_v after_o some_o necessary_a or_o profitable_a matter_n their_o mind_n rove_v at_o curious_a thing_n and_o of_o no_o valour_n howbéeit_n we_o must_v
satan_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o rather_o to_o make_v a_o observation_n of_o this_o doctrine_n that_o as_o god_n have_v not_o set_v down_o in_o the_o law_n and_o say_v you_o shall_v not_o serve_v i_o this_o way_n and_o that_o as_o please_v you_o but_o place_v and_o ordain_v the_o sacrifice_n &_o ceremony_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n &_o thereon_o stay_v themselves_o without_o devise_v any_o new_a and_o strange_a kind_n of_o service_n &_o mean_v to_o obtain_v favour_n &_o grace_n even_o so_o likewise_o must_v we_o at_o this_o day_n be_v content_v with_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o we_o know_v that_o that_o be_v the_o only_a mean_a by_o which_o god_n will_v be_v merciful_a &_o favourable_a unto_o we_o &_o by_o which_o also_o he_o will_v receive_v &_o adopt_v we_o unto_o himself_o thus_o we_o namely_o see_v what_o it_o be_v that_o the_o prophet_n mean_v to_o offer_v here_o unto_o us._n now_o it_o be_v moreover_o say_v that_o he_o will_v prolong_v his_o day_n &_o that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o seed_n to_o be_v permanent_a &_o that_o the_o will_v or_o pleasure_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v prosper_v in_o his_o hand_n here_o he_o bring_v we_o yet_o once_o again_o back_o unto_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o glory_n &_o excellency_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o assure_a that_o we_o may_v come_v unto_o he_o for_o if_o he_o have_v remove_v in_o death_n as_o a_o vanquish_a person_n it_o have_v be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o have_v be_v ever_o justify_v &_o quicken_v by_o his_o grace_n for_o how_o can_v death_n a_o lone_a have_v bring_v righteousness_n &_o life_n with_o it_o as_o of_o itself_o but_o because_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o death_n he_o rise_v again_o therein_o rest_v our_o full_a &_o whole_a confidence_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o we_o have_v obtain_v victory_n over_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v take_v to_o be_v righteous_a &_o death_n be_v abolish_v in_o we_o that_o we_o may_v have_v life_n in_o deed_n this_o in_o the_o first_o place_n have_v relation_n unto_o the_o person_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v he_o die_v according_a to_o the_o infirmity_n of_o his_o flesh_n 4._o 2._o cor._n 13._o 4._o howbeit_o the_o heavenly_a power_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n be_v show_v in_o his_o resurrection_n and_o hereof_o he_o give_v this_o testimony_n for_o these_o be_v his_o word_n destroy_v you_o this_o temple_n and_o within_o three_o day_n i_o will_v raise_v it_o up_o again_o 2.19_o john_n 2.19_o loe_o here_o how_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o touch_v his_o person_n do_v see_v a_o great_a age_n for_o he_o rise_v not_o again_o to_o show_v himself_o unto_o the_o world_n for_o a_o while_n and_o then_o die_v again_o but_o after_o he_o have_v show_v himself_o unto_o his_o disciple_n and_o make_v they_o witness_n of_o his_o resurrection_n he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n and_o so_o exempt_v himself_o from_o all_o humane_a frailty_n this_o than_o it_o be_v whereon_o we_o must_v build_v our_o faith_n in_o he_o when_o as_o we_o see_v he_o to_o have_v in_o such_o sort_n overcome_v death_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o triumph_v over_o he_o as_o that_o after_o that_o he_o be_v offer_v up_o for_o a_o sacrifice_n he_o be_v receive_v and_o exalt_v unto_o this_o power_n and_o dignity_n whereof_o mention_n have_v already_o be_v make_v but_o we_o must_v also_o note_v by_o the_o way_n that_o all_o this_o belong_v to_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o purpose_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o separate_v himself_o from_o it_o 2.11_o heb._n 2.11_o and_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v further_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o seed_n true_a it_o be_v we_o be_v call_v the_o brethren_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o can_v not_o be_v call_v the_o child_n of_o god_n but_o by_o the_o same_o name_n and_o therefore_o he_o who_o be_v the_o only_o belove_a must_v receive_v and_o join_v we_o so_o unto_o himself_o as_o that_o we_o may_v have_v that_o by_o adoption_n which_o be_v only_o he_o by_o nature_n howbeit_o this_o be_v no_o let_v unto_o we_o from_o be_v as_o child_n engender_v of_o his_o seed_n for_o what_o be_v the_o true_a seed_n of_o the_o church_n very_o even_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o saint_n peter_n tell_v us._n 25._o 1._o pet._n 1._o 23._o &_o 25._o and_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v the_o very_a self_n &_o same_o which_o we_o have_v already_o see_v verify_v unto_o we_o out_o of_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n endure_v for_o ever_o because_o by_o it_o we_o be_v make_v incorruptible_a 40.8_o isaiah_n 40.8_o whenas_o we_o receive_v profit_n thereby_o according_a to_o that_o measure_n that_o it_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o then_o be_v the_o seed_n by_o which_o we_o be_v regenerate_v into_o everlasting_a life_n howbeit_o we_o must_v first_o come_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o the_o gospel_n have_v this_o office_n and_o property_n to_o beget_v we_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n forsooth_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o true_a seed_n to_o quicken_v us._n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o naught_o say_v here_o that_o he_o shall_v see_v a_o seed_n of_o long_a continuance_n or_o a_o everlasting_a seed_n so_o then_o we_o be_v again_o to_o conclude_v that_o the_o benefit_n which_o our_o lord_n obtain_v by_o his_o resurrection_n be_v not_o particular_a for_o himself_o alone_o but_o that_o we_o may_v have_v part_n thereof_o and_o be_v call_v unto_o his_o company_n because_o we_o be_v member_n of_o his_o body_n now_o we_o be_v here_o by_o the_o way_n admonish_v not_o to_o seek_v for_o one_o drop_n of_o life_n in_o ourselves_o but_o to_o take_v it_o whole_o from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n why_o how_o will_v god_n then_o acknowledge_v we_o to_o be_v his_o child_n how_o shall_v we_o have_v any_o place_n in_o his_o church_n how_o shall_v we_o be_v take_v to_o be_v of_o his_o flock_n forsooth_o we_o must_v come_v to_o this_o point_n because_o we_o be_v partaker_n with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o god_n accept_v of_o we_o this_o be_v our_o beget_n and_o first_o birth_n and_o now_o let_v our_o fréewill_n man_n go_v and_o brag_v of_o their_o free_a will_n by_o which_o they_o suppose_v themselves_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n for_o what_o ability_n be_v he_o able_a to_o have_v to_o do_v either_o good_a or_o ill_a that_o be_v not_o yet_o beget_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o his_o mother_n wherefore_o let_v we_o understande_v thus_o much_o that_o since_o our_o chief_a and_o first_o creation_n be_v this_o that_o we_o be_v beget_v in_o jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o be_v

he_o whereof_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n and_o effect_n of_o all_o that_o which_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v of_o but_o by_o the_o way_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v also_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n the_o better_a taste_n of_o his_o death_n &_o passion_n it_o be_v say_v because_o he_o give_v his_o soul_n a_o offer_n for_o sin_n to_o wit_n for_o satisfaction_n or_o for_o sacrifice_n that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o seed_n for_o we_o right_o well_o show_v that_o we_o will_v blot_v out_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n if_o we_o glorify_v not_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o say_v true_o they_o that_o proud_o disdain_v to_o cleave_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o he_o

and_o so_o by_o this_o mean_a they_o have_v aswadle_v faith_n wherein_o their_o teacher_n have_v instruct_v they_o in_o say_v that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o they_o to_o believe_v as_o the_o

the_o iniquity_n of_o man_n when_o we_o see_v simple_a soul_n guide_v by_o such_o instructer_n of_o satan_n to_o bring_v they_o tumble_v headlonge_v together_o into_o the_o bottomless_a pyt_n of_o

man_n have_v stop_v up_o the_o way_n against_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o be_v content_v to_o be_v lycour_v with_o lease_v but_o by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o come_v home_o to_o ourselves_o and_o let_v we_o neither_o condemn_v the_o papist_n nor_o yet_o any_o other_o but_o eftsoon_o apply_v this_o doctrine_n unto_o our_o own_o use_n first_o of_o all_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n the_o

sure_o it_o be_v well_o enough_o perceive_v and_o the_o fruit_n that_o come_v by_o it_o without_o all_o doubt_n it_o be_v true_o say_v that_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n but_o if_o we_o live_v not_o in_o all_o obedience_n thereunto_o what_o testimony_n shall_v we_o have_v that_o we_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n for_o according_a to_o that_o which_o we_o handle_v on_o sunday_n last_o we_o can_v be_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n without_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n who_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n call_v the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n for_o by_o this_o we_o be_v show_v that_o we_o can_v have_v so_o small_a a_o portion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n if_o we_o will_v continue_v it_o but_o that_o god_n will_v more_o and_o more_o augment_v it_o in_o us._n in_o very_a deed_n every_o man_n can_v have_v the_o like_a measure_n thereof_o howbeit_o that_o be_v no_o let_v why_o we_o shall_v not_o increase_v our_o small_a talon_n for_o although_o a_o man_n have_v the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n yet_o may_v he_o not_o have_v one_o some_o grace_n which_o a_o other_o man_n have_v and_o hereupon_o be_v that_o say_n of_o saint_n paul_n verify_v 4.7_o rom._n 12.3_o ephes_n 4.7_o that_o god_n will_v give_v of_o his_o grace_n to_o every_o man_n according_a to_o such_o measure_n as_o we_o be_v the_o member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o see_v that_o the_o member_n of_o one_o body_n have_v not_o all_o one_o office_n for_o the_o foot_n will_v do_v that_o which_o the_o hand_n can_v do_v the_o eye_n be_v put_v to_o a_o other_o manner_n of_o use_n then_o the_o ear_n be_v and_o so_o consequent_o be_v all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n even_o so_o our_o lord_n will_v bestow_v his_o holy_a spirit_n upon_o some_o after_o a_o other_o sort_n than_o he_o will_v upon_o other_o some_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v all_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v be_v know_v to_o be_v christian_n we_o must_v have_v the_o knowledge_n of_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o guide_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v like_a unto_o those_o blind_a one_o which_o walk_n in_o infidelity_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o say_n that_o god_n will_v pour_v out_o of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n upon_o all_o flesh_n moreover_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o shall_v prophesy_v herein_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o signify_v unto_o we_o that_o when_o god_n will_v instruct_v we_o he_o will_v do_v it_o so_o perfect_o as_o that_o the_o doctrine_n shall_v not_o only_o profit_v ourselves_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v also_o be_v able_a to_o teach_v other_o and_o in_o deed_n whosoever_o shall_v receive_v great_a grace_n from_o god_n than_o the_o rest_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o bind_v to_o instruct_v the_o base_a and_o simple_a one_o and_o give_v himself_o to_o teach_v his_o neighbour_n wherefore_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o after_o god_n have_v instruct_v we_o that_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o labour_v to_o bring_v other_o unto_o the_o knowledge_n of_o he_o and_o hereupon_o it_o be_v that_o isaiah_n speak_v say_v 4.1_o isaiah_n 2.2_o mich._n 4.1_o let_v every_o man_n take_v his_o neighbour_n by_o the_o hand_n and_o lead_v he_o up_o unto_o the_o holy_a hill_n and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o principal_a point_n whereby_o god_n allow_v our_o christianity_n when_o as_o we_o so_o love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o to_o instruct_v they_o in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n now_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o come_v out_o as_o we_o say_v last_o sunday_n of_o the_o fountain_n of_o jerusalem_n who_o river_n so_o overflow_v the_o whole_a world_n as_o that_o every_o man_n may_v not_o only_o receive_v it_o for_o his_o own_o behoof_n but_o also_o distribute_v it_o unto_o our_o neighbour_n in_o deed_n all_o man_n be_v not_o doctor_n to_o teach_v howbeit_o if_o we_o be_v christian_n we_o have_v sufficient_a wherewith_o to_o exhort_v our_o neighbour_n let_v we_o now_o come_v to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o the_o prophet_n joell_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v send_v terrible_a and_o wondrous_a sign_n blood_n and_o fire_n and_o the_o vapoure_n of_o smoke_n the_o sun_n shall_v be_v turn_v into_o darkness_n and_o the_o moon_n into_o blood_n wherein_o as_o we_o have_v brief_o say_v the_o prophet_n mean_v to_o show_v that_o when_o god_n will_v visit_v his_o people_n at_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n although_o great_a felicity_n and_o blessing_n be_v promise_v yet_o the_o meaning_n be_v not_o for_o all_o that_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v see_v horrible_a and_o merueylous_a thing_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o needful_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v tell_v of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v understande_v that_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o to_o place_v we_o in_o this_o world_n as_o in_o a_o paradise_n and_o to_o live_v in_o it_o at_o our_o ease_n and_o pleasure_n but_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v send_v to_o a_o other_o end_n to_o wit_n that_o we_o may_v be_v draw_v from_o these_o earthly_a thing_n and_o be_v lift_v up_o unto_o heavenly_a matter_n and_o to_o say_v true_o there_o be_v never_o so_o horrible_a and_o wonderful_a thing_n as_o be_v at_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n now_o if_o it_o be_v ask_v why_o such_o thing_n come_v to_o pass_v after_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v manifest_v it_o be_v because_o we_o be_v so_o curse_v as_o that_o we_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o grace_n which_o he_o will_v have_v bestow_v upon_o us._n and_o therefore_o when_o our_o lord_n offer_v himself_o unto_o we_o and_o we_o refuse_v he_o must_v he_o not_o then_o of_o necessity_n so_o lift_v up_o his_o hand_n as_o to_o thunder_n and_o storm_n that_o we_o may_v be_v afeard_a of_o that_o our_o so_o great_a unthankfulness_n we_o see_v therefore_o why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o god_n have_v pour_v out_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o we_o must_v needs_o see_v wonderful_a trouble_n and_o when_o we_o have_v look_v unto_o heaven_n above_o and_o upon_o the_o earth_n beneath_o we_o shall_v see_v in_o they_o both_o such_o great_a trouble_n and_o fear_n as_o that_o a_o man_n will_v think_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v even_o go_v together_o so_o that_o the_o sun_n shall_v be_v darken_v the_o moon_n be_v turn_v to_o blood_n the_o star_n
