death_n to_o life_n to_o fulfil_v his_o promise_n &_o therefore_o doubt_v not_o to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n in_o sacrifice_v he_o so_o this_o woman_n doubt_v not_o but_o god_n must_v needs_o find_v a_o mean_a whereby_o his_o promise_n may_v be_v verify_v to_o she_o howsoever_o christ_n be_v not_o send_v but_o to_o the_o lose_a sheep_n of_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o therefore_o as_o she_o do_v not_o reason_n nor_o dispute_v against_o the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o she_o do_v still_o simple_o continue_v her_o suit_n and_o say_v lord_n help_v i_o which_o import_v as_o much_o as_o if_o she_o have_v say_v although_o thou_o be_v not_o send_v to_o offer_v thy_o grace_n unto_o the_o gentile_n but_o unto_o the_o jew_n only_o yet_o in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v promise_v that_o whosoever_o put_v his_o trust_n in_o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v confound_v and_o i_o be_o one_o of_o 28._o those_o that_o put_v my_o trust_n in_o thou_o thou_o can_v not_o send_v i_o away_o confound_v and_o therefore_o help_v i_o for_o god_n promise_n must_v needs_o be_v true_a let_v we_o learn_v here_o so_o firm_o to_o hold_v the_o general_a principle_n of_o our_o salvation_n that_o we_o admit_v nothing_o that_o may_v seem_v contrary_a unto_o they_o for_o of_o this_o we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o how_o soever_o any_o thing_n may_v seem_v contrary_a unto_o they_o yet_o from_o god_n proceed_v nothing_o either_o in_o word_n or_o deed_n that_o be_v contrary_a unto_o they_o and_o as_o for_o all_o the_o creature_n of_o y●_n world_n beside_o if_o they_o shall_v oppose_v &_o set_v themselves_o against_o they_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o prevail_v therefore_o saint_n paul_n say_v with_o great_a confidence_n i_o be_o persuade_v 8._o that_o neither_o death_n nor_o life_n neither_o angel_n nor_o principality_n nor_o power_n nor_o thing_n present_a nor_o thing_n to_o come_v neither_o height_n nor_o depth_n nor_o any_o creature_n can_v separate_v we_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n for_o if_o god_n be_v on_o our_o side_n who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o or_o if_o any_o be_v against_o we_o how_o can_v they_o be_v able_a to_o hurt_v we_o but_o if_o god_n himself_o seem_v to_o be_v against_o we_o who_o have_v we_o then_o to_o comfort_v we_o for_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n pronounce_v damnation_n to_o all_o that_o transgress_v his_o law_n but_o for_o asmuch_o as_o god_n of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n have_v promise_v salvation_n to_o all_o penitent_a sinner_n he_o have_v find_v a_o mean_a by_o which_o both_o his_o justice_n be_v satisfy_v &_o yet_o no_o penitent_a sinner_n that_o believe_v his_o promise_n shall_v be_v damn_v this_o only_a means_n be_v christ_n our_o saviour_n who_o by_o his_o obedience_n have_v thorough_o satisfy_v for_o all_o our_o disobedience_n and_o transgression_n as_o many_o as_o believe_v to_o have_v remission_n of_o our_o sin_n by_o he_o see_v therefore_o we_o have_v not_o only_o the_o general_a promise_n of_o god_n contain_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n but_o also_o the_o full_a execution_n per_fw-la formance_n &_o establishment_n of_o they_o in_o christ_n what_o shame_n be_v it_o for_o we_o to_o be_v find_v inferior_a in_o faith_n to_o his_o cananitish_a woman_n which_o have_v no_o more_o but_o the_o first_o whereunto_o nevertheless_o she_o clean_v so_o fast_o that_o by_o no_o mean_n she_o will_v be_v draw_v from_o they_o and_o sure_o even_o the_o very_a general_a promise_n of_o god_n be_v sufficient_a that_o our_o faith_n be_v build_v upon_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v remove_v for_o by_o they_o god_n have_v so_o bind_v himself_o unto_o we_o that_o by_o no_o mean_n he_o can_v revoke_v his_o promise_a salvation_n and_o yet_o for_o more_o confirmation_n and_o to_o take_v away_o all_o scruple_n of_o doubt_n and_o waver_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o the_o hebrew_n he_o have_v establish_v they_o with_o a_o oath_n that_o by_o two_o thing_n immutable_a in_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v lie_v we_o may_v have_v consolation_n &_o comfort_n as_o many_o as_o flee_v for_o refuge_n to_o take_v hold_n of_o the_o hope_n that_o be_v propound_v and_o set_v forth_o unto_o us._n therefore_o the_o anchor_n of_o our_o faith_n have_v then_o most_o unchangeable_a hold_n namely_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o the_o oath_n of_o god_n in_o both_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v lie_v for_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v lie_v when_o he_o simple_o affirm_v so_o be_v it_o more_o impossible_a if_o there_o may_v be_v degree_n in_o impossibility_n that_o god_n shall_v lie_v when_o he_o sware_v and_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v lie_v or_o be_v forswear_v so_o be_v it_o impossible_a that_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n which_o take_v hold_v of_o god_n promise_n by_o faith_n shall_v miss_v the_o performance_n of_o they_o whatsoever_o seem_v to_o be_v let_n or_o impediment_n unto_o they_o for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o let_v or_o impediment_n so_o great_a as_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o compel_v god_n to_o lie_v or_o perjury_n which_o be_v as_o great_a impossibility_n as_o can_v be_v think_v of_o for_o if_o the_o general_a or_o universal_a promise_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o be_v grant_v to_o any_o one_o person_n that_o embrace_v they_o by_o faith_n god_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o true_a of_o his_o word_n &_o his_o oath_n which_o be_v as_o impossible_a as_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o god_n for_o example_n sing_v god_n have_v say_v whosoever_o call_v 2._o upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v save_v if_o i_o poor_a wretch_n embrace_v this_o promise_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n do_v call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n whatsoever_o let_v or_o impediment_n be_v in_o the_o way_n it_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o i_o shall_v be_v save_v therefore_o if_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n shall_v tell_v i_o on_o their_o own_o credit_n or_o as_o it_o be_v by_o god_n commandment_n that_o i_o shall_v be_v damn_v i_o must_v hold_v they_o all_o accurse_v rather_o than_o to_o grant_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v a_o liar_n or_o perjure_a person_n and_o for_o asmuch_o as_o christ_n have_v say_v who_o soever_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v if_o i_o be_v baptize_v into_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n repose_v my_o whole_a trust_n &_o confidence_n in_o he_o whatsoever_o can_v be_v object_v against_o i_o i_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v save_v for_o neither_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o law_n nor_o the_o gyltynes_n of_o my_o sin_v nor_o the_o accusation_n of_o the_o devil_n nor_o witness_n of_o my_o own_o conscience_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o condemn_v i_o so_o long_o as_o i_o depend_v upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n for_o there_o be_v now_o no_o condemnation_n 8._o to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesu._n for_o what_o soever_o can_v be_v object_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n how_o soever_o contrary_a at_o the_o first_o sight_n it_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o in_o deed_n direct_o contrary_a to_o these_o &_o such_o like_a general_a promise_n as_o these_o say_n they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n 8._o if_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o the_o body_n be_v dead_a unto_o sin_v they_o that_o be_v christ_n have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n 5._o with_o the_o lust_n and_o concupiscence_n thereof_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o these_o and_o such_o like_a place_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o perfect_a innocency_n free_a from_o all_o sin_v but_o only_o of_o such_o innocency_n as_o be_v but_o inchoacted_a and_o begin_v in_o this_o life_n and_o make_v perfect_a in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v therefore_o if_o thou_o feel_v in_o thyself_o with_o thy_o faith_n in_o god_n a_o hatred_n of_o sin_v and_o a_o desire_n of_o righteousness_n which_o refrain_v thou_o from_o much_o wickedness_n &_o stir_v thou_o up_o to_o some_o work_n of_o virtue_n although_o there_o remain_v in_o thou_o the_o relic_n of_o sin_v yea_o a_o lust_n unto_o sin_v contrary_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n which_o also_o break_v out_o some_o time_n into_o actual_a sin_v yet_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n that_o dwell_v in_o thou_o thy_o body_n be_v dead_a unto_o sin_n thou_o have_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o lust_n and_o concupiscence_n thereof_o thou_o walk_v in_o the_o spi_n rit_v &_o not_o in_o the_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o god_n promise_n thou_o shall_v be_v save_v through_o thy_o faith_n for_o thy_o sin_n and_o infirmity_n shall_v not_o 4_o be_v impute_v unto_o thou_o but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v impute_v to_o thou_o
