that_o the_o jew_n be_v too_o to_o blind_v vaunt_v themselves_o in_o their_o father_n as_o though_o the_o dignity_n which_o they_o sometime_o have_v come_v from_o the_o holiness_n and_o virtue_n of_o man_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o isaac_n asmuch_o as_n in_o he_o lay_v overthrow_v the_o election_n of_o god_n not_o that_o he_o have_v a_o will_v so_o to_o do_v for_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v ask_v he_o how_o now_o will_v thou_o resist_v god_n will_v thou_o let_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o put_v in_o execution_n that_o which_o he_o have_v pronounce_v will_v thou_o alter_v that_o which_o he_o have_v pronounce_v by_o his_o mouth_n he_o will_v have_v say_v no_o and_o his_o intent_n be_v not_o such_o but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v he_o be_v drive_v and_o draw_v that_o way_n so_o then_o we_o may_v not_o say_v that_o isaac_n go_v about_o to_o help_v the_o election_n of_o god_n nor_o set_v it_o forward_o but_o contrariwise_o he_o hinder_v it_o now_o by_o this_o we_o see_v that_o all_o mouth_n must_v be_v shut_v and_o that_o man_n pretend_v not_o too_o have_v have_v any_o thing_n in_o their_o person_n to_o say_v that_o god_n shall_v confirm_v unto_o they_o the_o blissing_n which_o he_o have_v already_o give_v they_o to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v hereby_o that_o like_o as_o the_o election_n of_o god_n be_v free_a &_o undeserved_a in_o his_o first_o beginning_n &_o foundation_n and_o in_o full_a force_n so_o also_o it_o behove_v that_o god_n show_v unto_o the_o end_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o his_o only_a mercy_n and_o that_o all_o that_o be_v say_v on_o man_n behalf_n do_v cease_v &_o be_v abolish_v &_o that_o this_o be_v not_o either_o of_o the_o willer_n or_o of_o the_o runner_n as_o s._n paul_n say_v rom._n 9_o mark_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v now_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o see_v also_o the_o steadfastness_n which_o be_v in_o this_o counsel_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o choose_v those_o who_o he_o think_v good_a so_o we_o have_v to_o resolve_v ourselves_o although_o the_o whole_a world_n shall_v labour_v to_o overthrow_v our_o salvation_n that_o yet_o it_o will_v remain_v sure_a so_o that_o we_o have_v our_o refuge_n always_o to_o that_o which_o have_v be_v show_v we_o before_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v into_o his_o keep_v all_o that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v he_o as_o be_v his_o own_o &_o that_o nothing_o thereof_o shall_v perish_v forasmuch_o as_o god_n be_v strong_a than_o man_n for_o it_o be_v thither_o that_o he_o do_v lead_v we_o the_o father_n who_o have_v give_v you_o unto_o i_o be_v strong_a than_o all_o so_o they_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o stay_v ourselves_o whole_o upon_o the_o invincible_a power_n of_o god_n when_o there_o be_v any_o question_n of_o be_v assure_v that_o in_o call_v upon_o he_o we_o shall_v be_v hear_v &_o that_o we_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o as_o he_o have_v bring_v we_o into_o a_o good_a way_n so_o he_o will_v give_v we_o perseverance_n and_o although_o that_o we_o be_v weak_a and_o frail_a yet_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o fall_v but_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v lead_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o he_o will_v more_o and_o more_o increase_v his_o power_n in_o we_o we_o must_v therefore_o come_v even_o thus_o far_o namely_o that_o jacob_n have_v not_o only_o those_o his_o enemy_n which_o have_v no_o fear_n of_o god_o and_o be_v irreligious_a but_o even_o his_o own_o father_n isaac_n yea_o who_o be_v then_o as_o chief_a in_o the_o church_n god_n have_v put_v he_o in_o trust_n as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o covenant_n to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o treasurer_n thereof_o and_o despense_v it_o and_o yet_o nevertheless_o he_o as_o it_o shall_v seem_v be_v a_o enemy_n to_o the_o election_n of_o jacob_n wherefore_o if_o we_o see_v many_o contrariety_n and_o that_o it_o seem_v our_o salvation_n must_v be_v overthrow_v by_o many_o mean_n and_o that_o we_o see_v no_o issue_n let_v we_o then_o know_v that_o god_n will_v be_v victorious_a in_o the_o end_n and_o whatsoever_o weakness_n be_v find_v in_o we_o nevertheless_o he_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o proceed_v and_o although_o there_o be_v resistance_n and_o contradiction_n here_o beneath_o yet_o nevertheless_o he_o will_v overcome_v all_o and_o bring_v it_o well_o about_o but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o be_v here_o admonish_v by_o the_o example_n of_o isaac_n to_o hold_v ourselves_o under_o the_o bridle_n for_o if_o this_o happen_v unto_o such_o a_o man_n as_o isaac_n be_v so_o excellent_a and_o of_o a_o angelical_a holiness_n that_o he_o resist_v god_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o in_o comparison_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v every_o day_n be_v overtake_v a_o hundred_o time_n with_o some_o vain_a fantasy_n that_o we_o shall_v rush_v against_o god_n although_o we_o have_v no_o such_o purpose_n we_o have_v great_a need_n therefore_o to_o distrust_v our_o own_o judgement_n and_o to_o call_v upon_o god_n to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o will_v govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n otherwise_o as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o be_v as_o wretched_a stray_n and_o we_o shall_v go_v hither_o and_o thither_o at_o all_o adventure_n and_o when_o we_o ween_v to_o be_v very_o wise_a there_o will_v be_v nothing_o but_o folly_n in_o we_o yea_o rebellion_n although_o it_o be_v not_o with_o our_o will_n and_o knowledge_n mark_v this_o then_o for_o one_o lesson_n but_o we_o must_v mark_v here_o the_o cause_n which_o be_v here_o note_v by_o moses_n when_o he_o say_v that_o isaac_n love_v esau_n and_o wherefore_o do_v he_o love_v he_o because_o that_o venison_n be_v his_o meat_n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o be_v not_o lead_v by_o our_o carnal_a and_o earthly_a appetite_n if_o we_o will_v keep_v our_o array_n towards_o god_n it_o be_v true_a that_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_n be_v not_o condemn_v for_o god_n have_v place_v we_o in_o this_o world_n under_o that_o condition_n that_o we_o shall_v enjoy_v his_o creature_n and_o see_v he_o have_v ordain_v we_o to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o offend_v he_o not_o when_o we_o desire_v to_o have_v for_o our_o necessity_n &_o search_v out_o also_o the_o use_n of_o those_o benefit_n which_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o we_o for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v without_o cause_n that_o we_o must_v do_v all_o thing_n in_o his_o name_n yea_o both_o in_o eat_v &_o drink_v but_o in_o that_o we_o be_v corrupt_v it_o can_v be_v but_o there_o will_v be_v always_o excess_n in_o our_o appetite_n &_o this_o excess_n make_v we_o to_o forget_v our_o duty_n towards_o god_n so_o as_o we_o be_v be_v altogether_o draw_v away_o on_o every_o side_n &_o when_o we_o think_v to_o do_v our_o duty_n we_o be_v far_o therefrom_o but_o isaac_n ought_v always_o to_o have_v have_v this_o before_o his_o eye_n yea_o &_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v have_v it_o engrave_v in_o his_o heart_n this_o voice_n shall_v have_v sound_v in_o his_o ear_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o great_a shall_v serve_v the_o less_o he_o ought_v without_o end_n and_o without_o cease_v thus_o to_o have_v think_v well_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n will_v have_v his_o election_n to_o remain_v in_o jacob_n it_o behove_v that_o i_o agree_v unto_o it_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n his_o meat_n turn_v he_o &_o draw_v he_o quit_v contrary_a let_v we_o therefore_o be_v well_o advise_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v on_o our_o part_n to_o repress_v our_o desire_n yea_o though_o they_o be_v natural_a &_o of_o themselves_o not_o unlawful_a but_o to_o the_o end_n that_o there_o be_v no_o excess_n nor_o intemperance_n let_v we_o be_v advise_v i_o say_v to_o check_v and_o to_o tame_v they_o in_o such_o sort_n that_o they_o never_o turn_v we_o away_o or_o hinder_v we_o from_o order_v ourselves_o according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n mark_v therefore_o brief_o what_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v here_o but_o here_o also_o we_o see_v that_o rebecca_n have_v a_o affection_n better_o guide_v then_o her_o husband_n it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o always_o man_n shall_v see_v or_o for_o the_o most_o part_n that_o if_o the_o father_n love_v one_o of_o his_o child_n the_o mother_n will_v set_v her_o love_n quite_o contrary_a a_o man_n may_v see_v these_o contention_n in_o most_o house_n also_o it_o may_v be_v that_o rebecca_n have_v conceive_v some_o kind_n of_o jealousy_n forasmuch_o as_o she_o see_v esau_n prefer_v &_o therefore_o she_o love_v jacob_n the_o better_a forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v not_o so_o acceptable_a to_o his_o father_n nor_o have_v no_o such_o favour_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o that_o
to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o shortness_n thereof_o be_v not_o obscure_a unto_o we_o we_o have_v further_o more_o perfection_n in_o the_o gospel_n see_v god_n then_o have_v revel_v unto_o we_o that_o which_o be_v profitable_a for_o we_o to_o know_v we_o must_v not_o desire_v vision_n at_o this_o day_n but_o as_o often_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o any_o perplexity_n or_o doubt_n we_o must_v have_v recourse_n unto_o the_o scripture_n and_o when_o we_o shall_v think_v upon_o the_o mean_n let_v we_o mark_v whether_o the_o same_o be_v permit_v unto_o we_o and_o whether_o god_n allow_v of_o they_o and_o when_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o mean_n which_o shall_v come_v into_o our_o head_n be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n according_a as_o it_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n and_o in_o the_o gospel_n that_o we_o then_o forsake_v all_o mark_v how_o we_o have_v to_o follow_v our_o father_n isaac_n yea_o to_o overcome_v this_o temptation_n which_o be_v very_o heavy_a and_o troublesome_a that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o we_o have_v nothing_o wherewith_o to_o be_v nourish_v and_o feed_v but_o a_o very_a small_a pittance_n for_o oftentimes_o the_o unbeliever_n be_v find_v to_o have_v thirty_o time_n more_o than_o be_v necessary_a for_o they_o likewise_o a_o man_n shall_v find_v prodigal_a &_o dissolute_a person_n that_o will_v waste_v and_o spend_v all_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n yea_o and_o they_o will_v make_v havoc_n of_o they_o but_o what_o of_o the_o poor_a faithful_a one_o have_v travel_v for_o to_o maintain_v their_o life_n yet_o scarce_o do_v they_o find_v in_o the_o end_n how_o to_o get_v their_o bread_n when_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o god_n will_v oftentimes_o thus_o prove_v those_o that_o be_v he_o let_v every_o one_o prepare_v himself_o thereto_o and_o let_v we_o not_o be_v abash_v although_o that_o our_o lord_n do_v handle_v we_o with_o such_o rigour_n and_o severity_n nevertheless_o this_o be_v not_o to_o defeat_v we_o of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v promise_v we_o or_o not_o to_o hold_v we_o for_o his_o child_n &_o let_v we_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o office_n of_o feed_v and_o nourish_v we_o appertain_v unto_o he_o and_o that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o although_o not_o according_a to_o our_o desire_n and_o fantasy_n and_o moreover_o when_o we_o see_v that_o god_n press_v we_o not_o thereto_o that_o hunger_n shall_v drive_v we_o as_o they_o say_v from_o door_n to_o door_n let_v we_o know_v that_o he_o bear_v so_o much_o with_o we_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o weakness_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v concern_v the_o example_n of_o isaac_n but_o here_o a_o question_n mig●●_n be_v ask_v why_o god_n permit_v our_o father_n abraham_n to_o go_v into_o egypt_n and_o forbid_v his_o son_n isaac_n but_o concern_v this_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o god_n know_v who_o we_o be_v what_o our_o strength_n be_v and_o according_a to_o this_o also_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o be_v tempt_v above_o our_o strength_n as_o s._n paul_n have_v speak_v call_v he_o faithful_a in_o this_o behalf_n god_n then_o know_v that_o which_o he_o have_v put_v into_o we_o for_o that_o which_o be_v there_o of_o nature_n shall_v always_o be_v to_o throw_v we_o down_o but_o when_o he_o have_v give_v unto_o we_o any_o power_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n he_o know_v whether_o it_o be_v in_o little_a or_o in_o great_a portion_n ▪_o &_o accord_a to_o this_o also_o he_o exercise_v our_o faith_n &_o our_o patience_n &_o when_o he_o see_v that_o we_o be_v weak_a he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o be_v tempt_v so_o strong_o mark_v then_o how_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o this_o diversity_n which_o be_v here_o put_v between_o abraham_n &_o isaac_n be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o faithful_a shall_v not_o always_o be_v alike_o handle_v of_o god_n for_o this_o reason_n that_o i_o have_v allege_v isaac_n be_v the_o successor_n of_o abraham_n he_o have_v the_o promise_n and_o in_o this_o that_o he_o be_v try_v and_o examine_v by_o diverse_a affliction_n it_o be_v evident_o see_v that_o god_n make_v he_o to_o pass_v by_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o path_n but_o notwithstanding_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v it_o follow_v not_o that_o he_o have_v one_o and_o the_o like_a rule_n in_o all_o point_n for_o our_o lord_n support_v who_o he_o will_v and_o when_o he_o suffer_v man_n to_o be_v more_o hardly_o entreat_v by_o and_o by_o he_o likewise_o fortify_v and_o strengthen_v they_o abraham_n forsake_v not_o to_o return_v to_o the_o country_n of_o canaan_n after_o he_o have_v dwell_v in_o egypt_n but_o god_n also_o draw_v he_o out_o of_o egypt_n as_o if_o he_o have_v hold_v he_o by_o the_o hand_n for_o he_o may_v long_o time_n have_v remain_v there_o see_v himself_o rich_a there_o but_o he_o may_v have_v be_v hate_v of_o the_o inhabitant_n &_o therefore_o god_n draw_v he_o from_o thence_o he_o may_v likewise_o have_v do_v the_o like_a to_o isaac_n but_o we_o must_v not_o set_v he_o a_o law_n if_o any_o man_n reply_v here_o can_v not_o god_n have_v give_v aswell_o a_o invincible_a constancy_n to_o isaac_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v sleep_v there_o and_o can_v he_o not_o have_v make_v aswell_o he_o to_o have_v return_v yes_o very_o well_o but_o can_v we_o bind_v he_o to_o that_o it_o behove_v that_o he_o govern_v we_o according_a to_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o not_o according_a to_o our_o foolish_a dream_n and_o fantasy_n let_v we_o mark_v well_o then_o that_o when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o diversity_n in_o the_o tentation_n of_o the_o faithful_a it_o be_v because_o god_n know_v what_o every_o one_o will_v be_v able_a to_o bear_v and_o always_o let_v we_o have_v recourse_n to_o this_o sentence_n of_o s._n paul_n that_o we_o hope_v in_o he_o if_o he_o examine_v we_o if_o he_o place_v we_o in_o the_o battle_n if_o he_o try_v we_o with_o many_o grief_n that_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v provide_v for_o this_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v altogether_o overcome_v or_o vanquish_v mark_v wherefore_o it_o be_v forbid_v isaac_n to_o go_v into_o egypt_n now_o it_o be_v say_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v dwell_v in_o the_o country_n of_o canaan_n and_o that_o god_n will_v always_o be_v with_o he_o and_o that_o he_o will_v fulfil_v the_o oath_n which_o he_o have_v swear_v unto_o his_o father_n abraham_n this_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o will_v multiply_v his_o seed_n as_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n &_o that_o in_o his_o seed_n all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v bless_v here_o we_o see_v why_o god_n suffer_v not_o isaac_n to_o go_v into_o egypt_n that_o be_v that_o he_o may_v not_o forget_v the_o promise_n which_o have_v by_o give_v unto_o he_o concern_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n &_o likewise_o that_o he_o shall_v content_v himself_o therein_o and_o altogether_o rest_v himself_o there_o now_o if_o isaac_n who_o be_v so_o excellent_a in_o the_o faith_n as_o we_o see_v by_o all_o his_o life_n &_o to_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v give_v such_o a_o testimony_n have_v such_o need_n nevertheless_o to_o be_v so_o bridle_v what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o even_o so_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o marvel_v if_o our_o lord_n do_v oftentimes_o hold_v we_o as_o it_o be_v chain_v in_o and_o that_o he_o give_v we_o not_o licence_n to_o rove_v here_o and_o there_o for_o he_o know_v that_o this_o shall_v be_v to_o cast_v we_o to_o utter_v confusion_n so_o in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o have_v so_o slippery_a a_o memory_n insomuch_o as_o there_o need_v nothing_o to_o cause_v we_o to_o stray_v so_o as_o we_o know_v no_o more_o which_o shall_v be_v our_o right_a way_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o our_o lord_n give_v we_o not_o so_o great_a liberty_n as_o we_o will_v and_o likewise_o as_o often_o as_o we_o be_v hold_v within_o straight_a bound_n than_o our_o fantasy_n desire_v let_v we_o know_v that_o if_o our_o father_n isaac_n have_v such_o need_n thereof_o we_o by_o great_a reason_n who_o be_v come_v nothing_o so_o near_o to_o such_o excellency_n of_o virtue_n as_o he_o have_v great_a need_n now_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o see_v that_o in_o isaac_n which_o ere_o while_n be_v declare_v to_o be_v in_o abraham_n god_n say_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o will_v give_v he_o all_o those_o country_n that_o he_o see_v and_o through_o which_o he_o walk_v yea_o but_o notwithstanding_o he_o say_v unto_o he_o thou_o shall_v dwell_v there_o as_o a_o stranger_n mark_v two_o thing_n which_o yet_o seem_v contrary_a for_o if_o god_n will_v give_v he_o that_o land_n for_o

through_o faith_n the_o three_o article_n contain_v a_o horrible_a blasphemy_n that_o if_o god_n have_v create_v man_n to_o damn_v they_o his_o will_n and_o the_o devil_n be_v all_o one_o they_o that_o speak_v so_o show_v plain_o enough_o that_o they_o be_v altogether_o mocker_n of_o god_n and_o despiser_n of_o all_o religion_n it_o please_v god_n that_o job_n shall_v be_v rob_v and_o spoil_v

of_o christian_n see_v he_o know_v not_o
and_o that_o they_o be_v value_v of_o we_o as_o they_o ought_v we_o shall_v have_v always_o good_a cause_n to_o honour_v he_o &_o to_o rejoice_v ourselves_o in_o he_o but_o alack_o we_o devour_v up_o the_o benefit_n that_o he_o bestow_v upon_o we_o &_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o mow_v at_o they_o &_o never_o think_v upon_o they_o and_o we_o may_v see_v that_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o

it_o be_v say_v a_o little_a after_o that_o isaac_n erect_v a_o altar_n and_o that_o he_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o that_o place_n we_o have_v see_v already_o why_o altar_n be_v erect_v by_o the_o holy_a father_n &_o to_o what_o intent_n but_o yet_o we_o must_v here_o speak_v somewhat_o of_o it_o even_o as_o the_o place_n require_v the_o altar_n which_o isaac_n erect_v be_v to_o this_o end_n that_o he_o may_v make_v profession_n of_o his_o faith_n thus_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n for_o if_o we_o pray_v unto_o god_n we_o have_v no_o need_n to_o erect_v a_o altar_n unto_o he_o the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v of_o itself_o spiritual_a isaac_n therefore_o erect_v not_o a_o altar_n that_o he_o may_v only_o invocate_v and_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o god_n or_o make_v his_o prayer_n &_o supplication_n unto_o he_o but_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o his_o faith_n may_v be_v know_v &_o that_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v before_o man_n for_o although_o we_o ought_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o spirit_n and_o inward_o in_o our_o heart_n yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o let_v not_o also_o but_o that_o we_o must_v give_v he_o that_o praise_n which_o he_o deserve_v before_o man_n and_o that_o we_o protest_v asmuch_o as_n lie_v in_o we_o that_o we_o be_v whole_o he_o both_o body_n and_o soul_n here_o therefore_o we_o be_v instruct_v that_o the_o faithful_a after_o they_o have_v put_v their_o trust_n in_o god_n &_o shall_v have_v call_v upon_o he_o &_o give_v unto_o he_o the_o praise_n of_o all_o his_o benefit_n that_o they_o must_v yet_o further_o make_v a_o confession_n of_o their_o faith_n before_o man_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o may_v whole_o as_o also_o all_o be_v he_o dedicate_v themselves_o to_o he_o there_o be_v also_o a_o second_o reason_n and_o that_o be_v that_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o slougth_n and_o slackness_n we_o have_v need_v every_o manner_n of_o way_n to_o be_v prick_v forward_o to_o the_o end_n too_o stir_v we_o up_o to_o march_v cheerful_o forward_o in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n how_o so_o it_o be_v true_a that_o when_o we_o pray_v unto_o god_n he_o embusi_v himself_o with_o no_o ceremony_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o bow_v our_o knee_n we_o hold_v up_o our_o hand_n towards_o heaven_n and_o uncover_v our_o head_n and_o why_o so_o first_o of_o all_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o we_o do_v homage_n unto_o god_n with_o our_o body_n which_o he_o have_v create_v and_o which_o he_o have_v appoint_v to_o his_o glory_n &_o to_o the_o crown_n of_o immortality_n but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v forasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v slack_a it_o behove_v we_o that_o these_o mean_n stand_v we_o in_o steed_n to_o provoke_v we_o too_o have_v a_o more_o fervent_a zeal_n to_o pray_v unto_o god_n and_o with_o a_o more_o hearty_a affection_n loe_o then_o why_o it_o be_v meet_v for_o we_o to_o have_v our_o join_a hand_n lift_v up_o too_o kneel_v upon_o our_o knee_n and_o have_v our_o head_n uncover_v for_o it_o be_v too_o show_v that_o we_o present_v ourselves_o before_o god_n as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v and_o poor_a wretch_n who_o be_v thou_o with_o what_o lowliness_n ought_v thou_o too_o come_v before_o he_o who_o have_v create_v and_o fashion_v thou_o and_o to_o who_o thou_o haste_v to_o render_v a_o account_n of_o thy_o whole_a life_n and_o again_o this_o also_o be_v to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v bereave_v ourselves_o of_o all_o vain_a fantasy_n that_o make_v we_o to_o stray_v here_o and_o there_o and_o that_o we_o shall_v whole_o rest_n upon_o he_o so_o then_o the_o altar_n that_o isaac_n erect_v serve_v to_o this_o purpose_n to_o wit_n that_o by_o this_o mean_a he_o may_v be_v the_o more_o provoke_v and_o have_v his_o heart_n so_o much_o the_o more_o inflame_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o make_v a_o confession_n before_o man_n to_o give_v example_n to_o his_o family_n and_o to_o testify_v that_o he_o mingle_v not_o himself_o with_o the_o superstition_n of_o the_o paynim_n but_o have_v a_o pure_a and_o undefiled_a religion_n in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v rule_v by_o his_o word_n and_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o altar_n and_o by_o the_o way_n we_o have_v also_o to_o learn_v here_o this_o thing_n which_o be_v declare_v before_o that_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o holy_a father_n and_o the_o confession_n which_o they_o make_v of_o their_o faith_n be_v not_o join_v with_o the_o sacrifice_n for_o no_o other_o end_n but_o to_o lead_v they_o unto_o our_o

the_o world_n but_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o they_o rest_v there_o but_o now_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v down_o &_o that_o he_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o &_o have_v say_v unto_o we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n that_o he_o be_v the_o way_n 10_o the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n that_o he_o be_v our_o advocate_n to_o god_n his_o

any_o question_n of_o call_v upon_o he_o that_o we_o know_v that_o our_o request_n shall_v be_v hear_v of_o he_o and_o the_o gate_n shall_v be_v open_a for_o we_o &_o that_o we_o shall_v always_o find_v he_o ready_a and_o favourable_a to_o help_v and_o succour_v we_o now_o howsoever_o it_o be_v let_v we_o mark_v that_o altar_n in_o old_a time_n and_o special_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n be_v always_o erect_v to_o this_o end_n that_o the_o faithful_a may_v know_v that_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o pray_v unto_o god_n nor_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o in_o their_o own_o name_n but_o that_o always_o they_o must_v come_v to_o he_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n &_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o that_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o must_v offer_v up_o to_o his_o father_n for_o the_o reconciliation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o indeed_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o abraham_n and_o isaac_n devise_v altar_n according_a to_o their_o own_o fantasy_n for_o their_o sacrifice_n be_v never_o acceptable_a but_o through_o faith_n as_o the_o apostle_n show_v now_o they_o can_v never_o have_v be_v ground_v in_o faith_n unless_o the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v go_v before_o to_o enlighten_v they_o let_v we_o know_v then_o that_o isaac_n offer_v not_o up_o a_o sacrifice_n at_o all_o adventure_n as_o if_o he_o have_v think_v o_o this_o shall_v be_v find_v good_a but_o he_o be_v teach_v that_o he_o be_v a_o wretched_a sinner_n he_o must_v not_o presume_v to_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o god_n unless_o he_o put_v his_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o who_o must_v be_v send_v to_o make_v satisfaction_n and_o to_o purge_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n the_o paynim_n have_v in_o deed_n their_o altar_n and_o sacrifice_v as_o do_v the_o holy_a father_n but_o they_o want_v the_o principal_a they_o be_v whole_o occupy_v in_o the_o ceremony_n which_o of_o itself_o be_v frivolous_a because_o they_o look_v not_o up_o to_o that_o heavenly_a pattern_n whereof_o

that_o he_o can_v not_o be_v receive_v but_o in_o the_o name_n &_o favour_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o at_o this_o day_n as_o often_o as_o we_o will_v pray_v unto_o god_n

be_v altogether_o blind_a other_o be_v blind_a in_o part_n for_o the_o hireling_n of_o who_o we_o have_v speak_v they_o be_v altogether_o blockish_a and_o know_v nothing_o but_o the_o good_a and_o

in_o what_o sort_n and_o oftentimes_o their_o purpose_n be_v quite_o overthrow_v this_o then_o be_v that_o we_o have_v too_o learn_v and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n see_v god_n have_v declare_v unto_o we_o that_o his_o word_n be_v the_o open_a way_n to_o the_o heavenly_a life_n and_o that_o he_o will_v ratify_v all_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v pronounce_v here_o by_o man_n in_o his_o name_n let_v we_o keep_v we_o too_o that_o and_o not_o doubt_n whatsoever_o want_n shall_v be_v in_o we_o aswell_o concern_v he_o that_o speak_v as_o he_o that_o hear_v that_o yet_o nevertheless_o when_o we_o shall_v receive_v this_o word_n by_o faith_n &_o it_o shall_v be_v faithful_o &_o in_o truth_n handle_v unto_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v partaker_n of_o this_o blessing_n and_o herein_o we_o may_v see_v the_o beastliness_n of_o all_o those_o false_a wretch_n of_o the_o papacy_n for_o mark_v whereupon_o they_o have_v found_v that_o idol_n which_o they_o have_v to_o make_v a_o god_n of_o a_o morcel_n of_o bread_n they_o say_v if_o a_o priest_n have_v no_o intention_n to_o consecrate_v it_o be_v nothing_o &_o in_o that_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o god_n it_o be_v by_o the_o intention_n of_o he_o which_o cosecrate_v â–ª_o so_o as_o they_o must_v be_v idolater_n in_o all_o their_o mass_n i_o speak_v of_o their_o own_o doctrine_n if_o they_o make_v not_o this_o condition_n for_o what_o know_v we_o say_v they_o whether_o the_o priest_n which_o consecrate_v do_v his_o business_n as_o he_o ought_v &_o whether_o his_o mind_n be_v upon_o his_o kitchen_n or_o chambermaid_n for_o in_o so_o do_v the_o bread_n remain_v bread_n there_o be_v no_o god_o and_o why_o so_o for_o say_v they_o if_o his_o intention_n be_v not_o there_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o they_o show_v very_o well_o how_o one_o error_n draw_v another_o for_o because_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o that_o there_o be_v a_o change_n make_v of_o the_o bread_n into_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o which_o they_o have_v invent_v that_o same_o charm_n they_o add_v straight_o way_n the_o intention_n but_o notwithstanding_o we_o see_v that_o they_o know_v nothing_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o sacrament_n i_o leave_v now_o to_o speak_v of_o this_o conversion_n which_o they_o imagine_v &_o call_v transubstantiation_n but_o if_o he_o that_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n &_o have_v this_o charge_n and_o calling_n hold_v the_o people_n bind_v to_o his_o intention_n what_o shall_v this_o be_v a_o wicked_a man_n that_o shall_v baptise_v he_o may_v mock_v

be_v mock_v who_o come_v thither_o to_o seek_v a_o pledge_n of_o their_o salvation_n he_o therein_o manifest_o despit_v god_n to_o be_v short_a they_o must_v hold_v the_o power_n of_o god_n which_o he_o most_o notable_o set_v forth_o in_o the_o sacrament_n shut_v up_o in_o their_o fist_n and_o what_o a_o blasphemy_n be_v this_o &_o how_o detestable_a but_o see_v how_o far_o they_o be_v come_v for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o in_o the_o mass_n if_o they_o have_v a_o angel_n there_o yet_o it_o shall_v never_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o devilish_a thing_n but_o contrariwise_o if_o there_o be_v a_o devil_n in_o the_o supper_n which_o be_v minister_v yet_o it_o can_v not_o let_v god_n from_o accomplish_v his_o work_n we_o must_v not_o look_v to_o the_o woorthynessse_n of_o he_o which_o give_v the_o bread_n or_o the_o wine_n in_o the_o supper_n but_o god_n have_v so_o instruct_v we_o therein_o that_o he_o have_v give_v power_n to_o the_o visible_a sign_n it_o be_v he_o that_o work_v by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n so_o as_o we_o be_v not_o deceive_v when_o we_o come_v thither_o but_o shall_v be_v true_o unite_v and_o join_v unto_o he_o loe_o than_o what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v away_o upon_o this_o place_n too_o make_v our_o profit_n thereof_o but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o blessing_n which_o isaac_n give_v after_o he_o have_v kiss_v his_o son_n he_o say_v loe_o the_o savour_n of_o my_o son_n be_v at_o the_o savour_n of_o a_o field_n which_o god_n have_v bless_v albeit_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v deceive_v yet_o under_o the_o savour_n of_o this_o borrow_a garment_n he_o accept_v jacob_n his_o son_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v his_o first_o bear_v loe_o then_o how_o the_o savour_n whereby_o we_o be_v accept_v unto_o god_n proceed_v from_o he_o which_o be_v the_o first_o bear_v in_o the_o house_n to_o wit_n from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n moreover_o he_o add_v the_o lord_n give_v thou_o the_o dew_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o fatness_n of_o the_o earth_n abundance_n of_o wheat_n and_o wine_n here_o at_o the_o first_o show_v a_o man_n will_v judge_v that_o this_o blessing_n import_v nothing_o but_o that_o jacob_n shall_v be_v fat_a and_o well_o nourish_v for_o isaac_n mention_v not_o here_o any_o spiritual_a gift_n as_o we_o have_v show_v before_o that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o earthly_a commodity_n nor_o for_o riches_n profit_n or_o pleasure_n that_o jacob_n must_v be_v bless_v how_o shall_v these_o thing_n therefore_o be_v reconcile_v but_o we_o have_v to_o hold_v this_o rule_n that_o be_v give_v we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v always_o clothe_v as_o it_o be_v with_o some_o figure_n until_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n come_v for_o when_o the_o father_n will_v obtain_v pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n they_o have_v some_o beast_n slay_v and_o the_o blood_n be_v shed_v sometime_o the_o fat_a be_v burn_v and_o the_o blood_n be_v sprinkle_v and_o can_v a_o brute_n beast_n i_o beseech_v you_o blot_n out_o our_o sin_n whereof_o we_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n be_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n as_o a_o pledge_n &_o gage_v unto_o they_o that_o god_n have_v appoint_v a_o better_a inheritance_n for_o they_o then_o in_o this_o world_n for_o they_o may_v have_v return_v too_o the_o country_n where_o they_o be_v bear_v which_o be_v more_o fertile_a than_o this_o of_o judaea_n as_o may_v appear_v mark_v abraham_n and_o isaac_n pinch_v with_o famine_n and_o if_o they_o have_v look_v to_o nothing_o but_o to_o have_v be_v nourish_v here_o upon_o earth_n they_o will_v have_v forsake_v that_o land_n of_o promise_n but_o they_o rest_v there_o and_o wherefore_o to_o enjoy_v it_o after_o their_o death_n of_o necessity_n therefore_o must_v they_o think_v of_o a_o more_o high_a thing_n then_o this_o visible_a earth_n and_o they_o must_v take_v it_o in_o another_o respect_n to_o say_v we_o have_v here_o all_o that_o we_o can_v desire_v but_o they_o take_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n as_o a_o pledge_n that_o god_n give_v they_o until_o they_o shall_v come_v into_o the_o possession_n of_o that_o heavenly_a life_n so_o then_o when_o we_o see_v in_o this_o blessing_n of_o jacob_n that_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o dew_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o fat_a of_o the_o earth_n of_o abundance_n of_o corn_n and_o wine_n it_o mean_v not_o that_o isaac_n will_v only_o pray_v for_o this_o that_o his_o son_n may_v be_v feed_v as_o a_o hog_n in_o a_o sty_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v fat_a and_o full_a here_o beneath_o but_o he_o follow_v the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v at_o that_o time_n to_o wit_n that_o he_o do_v give_v unto_o they_o pledge_n of_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v much_o more_o excellent_a
