oftentimes_o god_n servant_n be_v accuze_v of_o conspiracy_n and_o of_o spiteful_a malice_n and_o stubbornness_n because_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n too_o consent_v too_o any_o

saint_n paul_n call_v we_o back_o here_o too_o god_n and_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o unto_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o baptism_n too_o show_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o agree_v among_o ourselves_o now_o then_o we_o have_v here_o two_o point_n too_o bear_v in_o mind_n the_o one_o be_v that_o in_o seek_v atonement_n with_o man_n we_o must_v always_o have_v our_o eye_n upon_o god_n and_o when_o we_o be_v come_v too_o it_o we_o must_v be_v settle_v in_o it_o more_o and_o more_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o we_o must_v ever_o have_v a_o care_n of_o now_o in_o general_n it_o be_v true_a that_o peace_n be_v too_o be_v desire_v and_o that_o the_o very_a name_n of_o it_o be_v have_v in_o estimation_n among_o man_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v not_o so_o shroud_v ourselves_o under_o the_o shadow_n of_o peace_n as_o too_o separate_v ourselves_o from_o god_n that_o in_o the_o end_n we_o make_v war_n against_o he_o and_o he_o proclaim_v we_o too_o be_v his_o enemy_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o must_v be_v at_o continual_a battle_n with_o the_o wicked_a for_o in_o asmuch_o as_o they_o serve_v satan_n they_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o fight_v against_o god_n and_o our_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o be_v cold_a and_o negligent_a in_o that_o behalf_n but_o zealous_a in_o set_v ourselves_o against_o they_o insomuch_o that_o although_o they_o be_v in_o honour_n and_o credit_n yet_o let_v we_o abhor_v they_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n let_v they_o be_v unto_o we_o as_o stink_v and_o loathsome_a thing_n and_o full_a of_o filth_n and_o uncleanness_n though_o they_o boast_v never_o somuch_o of_o their_o greatness_n yet_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o it_o be_v much_o better_a that_o they_o be_v drown_v with_o all_o their_o bravery_n in_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n than_o that_o they_o shall_v so_o exalt_v themselves_o against_o god_n you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v esteem_v the_o great_a man_n of_o the_o world_n no_o better_a than_o worm_n when_o they_o dare_v so_o bend_v their_o horn_n against_o god_n and_o consequent_o that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o peace_n with_o they_o see_v we_o shall_v be_v fain_o too_o forsake_v god_n for_o their_o pleasure_n but_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o it_o be_v better_a that_o the_o world_n be_v turn_v upside_o down_o than_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o now_o than_o if_o we_o knit_v together_o in_o god_n let_v we_o follow_v the_o rule_n that_o be_v give_v we_o here_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n too_o be_v so_o abse_z in_o ourselves_o as_o the_o world_n may_v perceive_v by_o our_o mildness_n that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o loftiness_n in_o we_o too_o set_v we_o at_o odds_n and_o like_v as_o kyndhartednesse_n bring_v patience_n so_o also_o let_v we_o condemn_v man_n vice_n and_o yet_o labour_v always_o to_o draw_v the_o party_n unto_o god_n and_o too_o win_v they_o unto_o he_o rather_o than_o too_o set_v they_o of_o through_o sharpness_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v too_o the_o word_n that_o be_v couch_v here_o by_o s._n paul_n he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n as_o we_o be_v

like_o a_o heap_n of_o stone_n but_o we_o must_v be_v knit_v together_o with_o a_o hearty_a good_a will._n and_o like_v as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o heart_n and_o one_o mind_n among_o the_o faithful_a in_o the_o primitive_a church_n 32._o so_o must_v the_o same_o appear_v among_o we_o too_o at_o this_o day_n saint_n paul_n then_o in_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v one_o

that_o be_v to_o say_v so_o knit_v together_o as_o the_o finger_n of_o a_o hand_n for_o without_o that_o we_o can_v never_o show_v that_o we_o be_v desirous_a too_o attain_v too_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n that_o therefore_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o he_o mean_v by_o the_o two_o word_n body_n and_o spirit_n true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o god_n spirit_n govern_v we_o he_o reform_v our_o

or_o call_n too_o be_v short_a we_o must_v be_v but_o all_o as_o one_o as_o shall_v be_v declare_v anon_o more_o at_o length_n forasmuch_o then_o as_o there_o be_v none_o other_o too_o govern_v we_o

too_o stir_v we_o up_o the_o better_a heruntoo_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v call_v unto_o a_o inheritance_n in_o say_v so_o he_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o much_o holy_a atonement_n between_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

you_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_n be_v to_o absent_v himself_o from_o we_o in_o his_o body_n too_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v the_o better_o feel_v his_o presence_n through_o his_o

to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o all_o our_o enemy_n and_o to_o the_o bridle_a or_o rather_o too_o the_o fetter_n of_o they_o so_o as_o they_o can_v hurt_v we_o do_v what_o they_o can_v therefore_o according_a too_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v here_o from_o out_o of_o the_o psalm_n it_o be_v very_o requisite_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v above_o too_o obtain_v the_o upper_a hand_n of_o our_o

continual_o withal_o for_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o as_o a_o mortal_a man_n he_o have_v such_o force_n as_o be_v terrible_a out_o of_o measure_n what_o may_v he_o do_v be_v it_o not_o that_o jesus_n

as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o foot_n upon_o their_o throat_n you_o see_v then_o the_o kingdom_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v give_v he_o with_o full_a warrant_n that_o we_o shall_v ever_o
