be_v once_o endue_v with_o god_n gift_n they_o fall_v too_o thrust_v of_o themselves_o into_o his_o place_n and_o will_v be_v esteem_v in_o his_o stead_n after_o that_o manner_n do_v we_o dealer_n

more_o than_o be_v lawful_a again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o we_o hear_v jesus_n christ_n speak_v of_o how_o he_o be_v abse_z for_o our_o sake_n how_o he_o go_v down_o into_o the_o dungeon_n of_o death_n how_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o all_o reproach_n it_o seem_v too_o we_o that_o we_o may_v well_o despise_v he_o s._n paul_n therefore_o too_o beat_v down_o all_o pride_n

have_v be_v but_o like_o a_o green_a flower_n which_o wither_v out_o of_o hand_n as_o soon_o as_o god_n breathe_v upon_o it_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o imagine_v ourselves_o too_o be_v

of_o nature_n who_o order_v the_o day_n moon_n and_o year_n and_o who_o make_v the_o intercourse_n of_o day_n and_o night_n it_o be_v god_n who_o do_v all_o in_o all_o thing_n as_o much_o be_v too_o be_v say_v of_o all_o other_o thing_n which_o we_o perceive_v in_o the_o universal_a government_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o imagine_v that_o god_n be_v a_o creator_n but_o for_o a_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n but_o that_o he_o do_v also_o hold_v on_o in_o maintain_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o create_v howbeit_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o spiritual_a good_n which_o be_v as_o you_o will_v say_v the_o peculiar_a heritage_n of_o god_n child_n god_n then_o do_v all_o thing_n in_o we_o yea_o but_o not_o alone_a by_o the_o common_a order_n of_o nature_n but_o

all_o thing_n as_o if_o s._n paul_n have_v declare_v in_o one_o word_n that_o the_o faithful_a be_v not_o any_o thing_n ne_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n ne_o have_v any_o thing_n of_o themselves_o then_o

with_o they_o after_o a_o visible_a fashion_n as_o well_o as_o he_o do_v when_o he_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n but_o we_o must_v not_o dispute_v of_o this_o matter_n after_o our_o own_o

so_o let_v we_o be_v like_o scholar_n unto_o he_o but_o let_v we_o come_v now_o too_o the_o truth_n whereof_o saint_n paul_n speak_v which_o be_v say_v he_o that_o you_o put_v of_o the_o old_a man_n which_o be_v corrupt_v with_o earthly_a lust_n even_o according_a too_o the_o conversation_n that_o you_o have_v lead_v heretofore_o he_o express_v yet_o better_a that_o all_o they_o which_o vaunt_v

deny_v jesus_n christ_n in_o his_o whole_a life_n how_o much_o soever_o he_o confess_v he_o in_o word_n therefore_o let_v we_o bethink_v ourselves_o and_o consider_v that_o if_o we_o mean_v to_o be_v allow_v of_o god_n we_o must_v learn_v too_o rid_v away_o our_o old_a man_n and_o by_o that_o word_n the_o scripture_n mean_v all_o that_o we_o have_v of_o nature_n for_o we_o know_v there_o be_v as_o

there_o be_v not_o one_o drop_n of_o goodness_n and_o uprightness_n in_o we_o that_o all_o our_o thought_n be_v wicked_a and_o that_o all_o our_o desire_n and_o affection_n be_v rebellious_a against_o

here_o we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v two_o part_n in_o rule_v our_o life_n and_o in_o come_v unto_o god_n the_o one_o be_v the_o forsake_v of_o ourselves_o and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o be_v

the_o end_n and_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n lo_o how_o these_o text_n do_v teach_v we_o charity_n again_o our_o lord_n also_o intend_v too_o conclude_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n 39_o set_v down_o these_o two_o point_n namely_o that_o we_o shall_v love_v he_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n with_o all_o our_o mind_n and_o with_o all_o our_o power_n and_o strength_n and_o our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o then_o if_o we_o think_v too_o be_v allow_v of_o god_n and_o charity_n reign_v not_o in_o we_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o the_o world_n may_v like_v well_o of_o we_o but_o all_o our_o whole_a life_n shall_v be_v utter_o loathsome_a before_o god_n until_o charity_n be_v settle_v in_o our_o heart_n so_o as_o she_o govern_v we_o and_o we_o tend_v always_o unto_o she_o yea_o and_o work_v all_o our_o work_v by_o she_o now_o then_o see_v that_o love_n be_v the_o true_a perfection_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o of_o all_o god_n child_n let_v we_o see_v what_o it_o import_v for_o if_o a_o man_n brag_v that_o he_o have_v it_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n have_v neither_o lowliness_n nor_o gentleness_n nor_o patience_n he_o make_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o liar_n who_o not_o without_o cause_n show_v what_o be_v betoken_a by_o charity_n or_o love_n for_o he_o have_v not_o set_v down_o the_o bare_a word_n and_o only_o say_v be_v you_o charitable_a but_o he_o have_v also_o show_v we_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o it_o namely_o first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o must_v beat_v down_o this_o pride_n which_o beguile_v we_o and_o make_v we_o doss_n with_o our_o horn_n against_o god_n insomuch_o that_o it_o be_v right_o hard_a for_o we_o too_o be_v low_o mind_v towards_o man_n when_o we_o can_v hold_v ourselves_o meek_o in_o obedience_n under_o god_n now_o then_o let_v we_o fight_v in_o such_o wise_n as_o all_o pride_n may_v be_v correct_v in_o we_o and_o therewithal_o enforce_v ourselves_o always_o too_o humility_n that_o we_o may_v be_v kind_a heart_a and_o fellowlyke_a with_o the_o faithful_a which_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o bear_v one_o with_o another_o the_o very_a heathen_a man_n have_v the_o skill_n too_o say_v that_o if_o we_o have_v the_o wit_n and_o discretion_n too_o see_v the_o vice_n that_o be_v in_o ourselves_o we_o shall_v be_v patient_a towards_o other_o for_o why_o i_o have_v need_n too_o be_v bear_v withal_o myself_o and_o if_o i_o do_v not_o the_o like_a too_o other_o folk_n how_o partial_o do_v i_o deal_v this_o consideration_n alone_o ought_v too_o tame_v we_o sufficient_o though_o there_o be_v neither_o law_n nor_o gospel_n wherefore_o in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o know_v that_o charity_n import_v these_o three_o thing_n let_v we_o learn_v too_o be_v patient_a not_o only_a when_o any_o wrong_n be_v do_v we_o but_o also_o when_o we_o see_v our_o neighbour_n too_o be_v weak_a and_o feeble_a and_o not_o yet_o come_v too_o such_o perfection_n as_o be_v requisite_a and_o though_o they_o be_v not_o so_o well_o forward_o and_o settle_v in_o god_n word_n as_o we_o will_v wish_v yet_o let_v we_o pity_v they_o and_o with_o all_o meekness_n endeavour_n too_o use_v such_o correction_n towards_o they_o as_o neither_o their_o vice_n may_v be_v nourish_v nor_o the_o party_n themselves_o be_v cast_v in_o despair_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o that_o strain_v now_o heeruppon_o saint_n paul_n infer_v further_a that_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n or_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n for_o he_o set_v here_o the_o unity_n of_o spirit_n as_o a_o mark_n that_o be_v requisite_n in_o the_o church_n and_o flock_n of_o god_n insomuch_o that_o if_o we_o be_v at_o odds_n among_o ourselves_o we_o be_v at_o odds_n with_o god_n and_o therewithal_o he_o show_v we_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v see_v brief_o before_o which_o be_v that_o if_o we_o be_v not_o at_o one_o among_o ourselves_o god_n disclaim_v we_o and_o tell_v we_o we_o belong_v not_o unto_o he_o this_o unity_n therefore_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o ought_v too_o be_v much_o set_v by_o now_o adays_o see_v it_o be_v the_o mean_a in_o respect_n whereof_o we_o be_v acknowledge_v for_o god_n child_n true_a
