from_o heaven_n to_o be_v the_o sole_a doctor_n and_o prophet_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n present_o without_o delay_n as_o be_v mark_n 1._o 12._o he_o be_v lead_v aside_o to_o be_v tempt_v of_o the_o devil_n in_o that_o christ_n be_v no_o soon_o baptize_v 1._o but_o he_o be_v present_o tempt_v it_o show_v we_o that_o all_o those_o which_o have_v be_v baptize_v and_o give_v up_o their_o name_n to_o christ_n must_v make_v account_n to_o be_v tempt_v and_o look_v for_o temptation_n for_o if_o satan_n dare_v be_v so_o bold_a to_o set_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n the_o head_n who_o be_v not_o only_a man_n but_o very_a god_n how_o much_o more_o will_v he_o be_v bold_a to_o set_v upon_o we_o who_o be_v but_o weak_a and_o sinful_a man_n and_o therefore_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o have_v true_o give_v up_o our_o name_n to_o god_n and_o become_v the_o faithful_a soldier_n of_o christ_n and_o refuse_v to_o serve_v sin_n and_o satan_n then_o will_v the_o devil_n encounter_v we_o and_o set_v upon_o we_o and_o we_o must_v look_v for_o to_o be_v tempt_v prepare_v ourselves_o to_o this_o spiritual_a battle_n and_o put_v upon_o we_o the_o whole_a complete_a armour_n of_o god_n ephes_n 6._o 11._o but_o most_o man_n will_v say_v this_o doctrine_n be_v not_o true_a for_o they_o never_o feel_v any_o such_o combat_n in_o themselves_o though_o they_o have_v be_v baptize_v many_o year_n i_o answer_v such_o man_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v they_o have_v only_o the_o outward_a baptism_n of_o water_n and_o never_o receive_v the_o inward_a baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o such_o man_n do_v indeed_o wear_v christ_n livery_n but_o do_v service_n to_o the_o devil_n his_o enemy_n and_o therefore_o let_v such_o person_n reform_v themselves_o turn_v from_o their_o wicked_a and_o sinful_a life_n and_o seek_v to_o serve_v the_o lord_n and_o then_o they_o shall_v find_v this_o doctrine_n most_o true_a for_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v under_o pharaoh_n in_o egypt_n they_o be_v not_o persecute_v by_o pharaoh_n but_o when_o they_o do_v set_v their_o face_n towards_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n then_o present_o he_o pursue_v they_o with_o all_o his_o malice_n and_o might_n so_o all_o the_o while_n man_n live_v in_o egypt_n that_o be_v in_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o serve_v the_o devil_n he_o will_v let_v they_o be_v at_o quiet_a but_o if_o ever_o we_o once_o set_v our_o heart_n on_o that_o heavenly_a canaan_n and_o give_v ourselves_o to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n than_o he_o will_v with_o open_a mouth_n pursue_v we_o follow_v we_o with_o many_o army_n and_o cast_v a_o hundred_o temptation_n in_o our_o way_n and_o as_o a_o poor_a bird_n which_o come_v to_o the_o shop_n and_o when_o she_o think_v to_o get_v away_o then_o come_v all_o her_o pain_n and_o the_o net_n be_v spread_v over_o she_o so_o when_o man_n begin_v to_o leave_v their_o evil_a course_n and_o to_o set_v themselves_o to_o serve_v the_o lord_n present_o the_o devil_n do_v spread_v his_o net_n to_o entangle_v they_o this_o must_v teach_v we_o to_o watch_v and_o pray_v that_o we_o enter_v not_o into_o temptation_n second_o 2._o in_o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v no_o soon_o baptize_v &_o ordain_v to_o be_v the_o great_a doctor_n of_o the_o church_n but_o he_o be_v present_o tempt_v and_o encounter_v by_o satan_n hence_o we_o learn_v that_o all_o those_o which_o be_v appoint_v of_o god_n to_o any_o special_a office_n in_o the_o church_n or_o commonweal_n they_o must_v make_v account_n they_o shall_v be_v tempt_v and_o look_v for_o satan_n temptation_n one_o way_n or_o other_o it_o be_v that_o which_o befall_v the_o head_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o all_o that_o be_v his_o member_n reckon_v of_o it_o example_n of_o this_o we_o have_v in_o moses_n 14._o who_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o be_v new_o call_v to_o be_v the_o guide_n and_o deliverer_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n he_o be_v fain_o to_o fly_v when_o he_o have_v kill_v the_o egyptian_a 18._o and_o david_n be_v no_o soon_o appoint_v by_o god_n to_o be_v king_n of_o israel_n but_o saul_n do_v persecute_v he_o as_o soon_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n have_v call_v the_o apostle_n to_o that_o office_n he_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o sea_n and_o there_o by_o his_o divine_a power_n raise_v a_o storm_n 23._o so_o as_o they_o cry_v out_o master_n save_v we_o or_o else_o we_o perish_v and_o this_o the_o lord_n do_v in_o great_a wisdom_n for_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o show_v a_o man_n that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a of_o himself_o to_o execute_v the_o duty_n of_o his_o particular_a call_n without_o the_o special_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o by_o these_o temptation_n and_o trial_n the_o lord_n stir_v up_o a_o great_a love_n of_o his_o majesty_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o child_n and_o with_o it_o many_o other_o grace_n as_o prayer_n patience_n etc._n etc._n and_o make_v these_o grace_n the_o better_a to_o show_v themselves_o see_v that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n begin_v his_o prophetical_a office_n of_o teach_v the_o church_n of_o god_n with_o temptation_n 3_o this_o shall_v admonish_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o they_o of_o all_o other_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o satan_n temptation_n because_o they_o be_v the_o lord_n standard-bearer_n and_o his_o lieutenant_n against_o who_o satan_n and_o all_o his_o soldier_n bend_v all_o their_o force_n as_o soldier_n often_o do_v against_o the_o standard-bearer_n when_o as_o jehoshua_n the_o high_a priest_n stand_v before_o the_o lord_n satan_n stand_v at_o his_o right_a hand_n to_o hinder_v he_o

fight_v not_o against_o small_a or_o great_a but_o against_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n so_o satan_n fight_v not_o against_o any_o so_o much_o as_o the_o prophet_n of_o israel_n the_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n so_o then_o we_o may_v see_v that_o temptation_n be_v necessary_a for_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n that_o they_o may_v both_o know_v what_o they_o be_v and_o also_o learn_v how_o to_o comfort_v other_o in_o time_n o●_n temptation_n also_o to_o teach_v we_o the_o true_a use_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o force_n of_o it_o in_o resist_a temptation_n for_o
