if_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o as_o a_o mean_a to_o he_o now_o therefore_o for_o a_o three_o point_n s._n paul_n add_v that_o we_o must_v communicate_v all_o of_o one_o spirit_n for_o although_o the_o

son_n the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o come_v unto_o god_n be_v very_o small_a for_o this_o cause_n s._n paul_n say_v that_o we_o must_v have_v god_n spirit_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o by_o nature_n we_o be_v variable_a and_o not_o only_o every_o one_o of_o we_o will_v needs_o have_v his_o opinion_n by_o himself_o but_o also_o we_o change_v every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n by_o mean_n whereof_o we_o be_v so_o far_o of_o from_o be_v all_o of_o one_o accord_n that_o none_o of_o we_o abide_v settle_v in_o his_o opinion_n from_o morning_n to_o night_n except_o he_o be_v govern_v of_o god_n it_o stand_v we_o then_o on_o hand_n when_o we_o hear_v the_o gospel_n preach_v too_o have_v god_n spirit_n to_o guide_v and_o govern_v we_o so_o as_o we_o may_v thorough_o embrace_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o he_o have_v access_n too_o the_o father_n now_o therefore_o we_o must_v bear_v in_o mind_n first_o that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n exhort_v we_o by_o his_o minister_n according_a also_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o the_o second_o too_o the_o corinthian_n we_o ought_v too_o be_v well_o dispose_v too_o come_v unto_o he_o 4._o yea_o and_o to_o run_v

god_n too_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o holy_a spirit_n &_o to_o cause_v he_o to_o make_v we_o way_n unto_o he_o as_o be_v say_v in_o the_o eight_o to_o the_o roman_n 15._o and_o as_o we_o have_v see_v also_o likewise_o too_o the_o galatian_n for_o there_o s._n paul_n put_v a_o difference_n betwixt_o god_n child_n 6._o and_o the_o reprobat_n we_o say_v he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o we_o cry_v abba_n father_n we_o shall_v not_o know_v he_o of_o our_o selnes_z say_v he_o because_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o infirmity_n and_o it_o be_v too_o great_a a_o rashness_n in_o we_o too_o call_v god_n our_o father_n but_o when_o god_n have_v once_o seal_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o gospel_n in_o we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o inlyghten_v we_o inward_o so_o as_o we_o know_v it_o be_v he_o that_o speak_v and_o thereunto_o have_v assure_v we_o of_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n then_o may_v we_o free_o and_o with_o open_a mouth_n cry_v out_o that_o he_o be_v our_o father_n and_o so_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v in_o mind_n too_o the_o intent_n that_o none_o of_o we_o trust_v too_o his_o own_o brain_n when_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v unto_o he_o but_o that_o in_o cosideration_n of_o the_o rudeness_n and_o weakness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o we_o suffer_v ourselves_o too_o be_v govern_v by_o god_n spirit_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a kine_n whereby_o the_o gate_n of_o paradise_n be_v open_v unto_o we_o and_o for_o that_o cause_n also_o be_v it_o say_v that_o we_o must_v be_v besprinkle_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n 〈…〉_o as_o s._n peter_n term_v it_o in_o his_o first_o epistle_n for_o the_o same_o cause_n also_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v 14._o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v offer_v up_o in_o spirit_n mean_v that_o his_o sacrifice_n whereby_o he_o purchase_v we_o righteousness_n shall_v still_o be_v as_o a_o vain_a thing_n to_o

do_v but_o transfigure_v he_o after_o our_o own_o fancy_n therefore_o it_o behove_v our_o prayer_n not_o only_o to_o be_v make_v with_o our_o mouth_n but_o also_o too_o come_v from_o the_o bottom_n of_o our_o heart_n and_o now_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o have_v not_o that_o of_o our_o own_o power_n the_o holy_a ghost_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o work_v therein_o and_o therefore_o by_o the_o word_n spirit_n may_v be_v understand_v that_o we_o shall_v beseech_v god_n to_o govern_v we_o in_o such_o wise_n as_o he_o touch_v we_o thorough_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v pray_v to_o he_o as_o we_o ought_v too_o do_v and_o he_o also_o accept_v our_o prayer_n acknowledge_n in_o they_o the_o mark_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n for_o we_o must_v always_o remember_v how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o epistle_n too_o the_o roman_n 26._o that_o we_o know_v not_o what_o too_o pray_v for_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o surmount_v all_o our_o understanding_n and_o the_o able_a of_o we_o all_o fail_v in_o that_o behalf_n notwithstanding_o that_o there_o be_v a_o number_n which_o bear_v themselves_o on_o hand_n that_o they_o know_v perfect_o how_o and_o what_o too_o pray_v unto_o god_n howbeit_o all_o such_o opinion_n do_v but_o shut_v we_o out_o of_o the_o gate_n unless_o that_o upon_o the_o know_n of_o our_o default_n and_o infirmity_n we_o resort_v

without_o the_o which_o we_o can_v not_o utter_v so_o much_o as_o this_o word_n father_n 6._o according_a also_o as_o he_o say_v too_o the_o galatian_n that_o when_o the_o spirit_n cry_v in_o we_o we_o can_v open_v our_o mouth_n too_o call_v free_o upon_o god_n 15._o as_o be_v rehearse_v in_o another_o place_n now_o then_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v thorough_o dispose_v too_o pray_v unto_o god_n except_o he_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n moreover_o saint_n paul_n intent_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o be_v too_o exclude_v all_o counterfeit_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o hope_v too_o justify_v our_o case_n before_o god_n by_o ceremony_n or_o by_o popeholines_n as_o they_o term_v it_o in_o make_v of_o long_a prayer_n and_o many_o circumstance_n but_o suffer_v the_o spirit_n too_o bear_v sway_n wherefore_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o be_v so_o touch_v as_o the_o spirit_n may_v be_v our_o master_n and_o teacher_n and_o endite_v the_o thing_n too_o we_o which_o we_o have_v too_o utter_a in_o call_v upon_o our_o god_n and_o second_o let_v our_o prayer_n proceed_v from_o the_o bottom_n of_o our_o heart_n &_o let_v we_o put_v this_o say_n of_o the_o psalm_n in_o ure_n 18._o that_o we_o must_v sue_v unto_o our_o god_n in_o truth_n for_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v not_o near_o too_o any_o but_o too_o such_o as_o have_v that_o quality_n and_o not_o without_o cause_n be_v such_o exposition_n set_v down_o for_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o we_o be_v so_o much_o incline_v too_o shift_v that_o too_o our_o seem_n god_n ought_v too_o yield_v too_o we_o and_o too_o our_o nature_n but_o it_o be_v clean_o contrary_a now_o then_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n perceive_v that_o man_n abuse_v his_o name_n after_o that_o fashion_n and_o make_v prayer_n after_o their_o own_o manner_n that_o be_v too_o say_v prayer_n that_o be_v wrap_v in_o hypocrisy_n and_o untruth_n and_o have_v no_o substancialnesse_n nor_o

a_o right_a meaning_n that_o be_v too_o say_v unless_o we_o pray_v with_o a_o hearty_a affection_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v upon_o that_o say_n of_o saint_n paul_n and_o that_o whereas_o he_o say_v steadfast_o and_o with_o hold_v out_o throughout_o too_o the_o end_n it_o be_v too_o express_v the_o better_a that_o it_o be_v never_o out_o of_o season_n too_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o even_o therefore_o be_v this_o add_v because_o we_o will_v fain_o exempt_v ourselves_o from_o our_o god_n wherein_o a_o man_n may_v well_o perceive_v how_o unperfect_a our_o mind_n be_v and_o how_o destitute_a of_o wit_n and_o reason_n we_o be_v for_o all_o our_o welfare_n consist_v in_o have_v access_n too_o our_o god_n that_o we_o seek_v help_v at_o his_o hand_n and_o too_o

fain_o be_v hear_v yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o we_o shall_v pray_v unto_o god_n it_o seem_v that_o we_o be_v hale_v to_o it_o as_o it_o be_v by_o force_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v ravish_v in_o love_n with_o it_o as_o i_o have_v show_v already_o now_o then_o this_o vice_n of_o recklessness_n and_o coldness_n in_o that_o we_o never_o pray_v unto_o god_n but_o when_o we_o be_v compel_v or_o
