sin_n from_o the_o world_n for_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o strong_a and_o common_a encouragement_n that_o man_n take_v to_o live_v in_o a_o sin_n if_o they_o think_v it_o likely_a to_o be_v conceal_v but_o here_o they_o see_v how_o false_a a_o ground_n that_o be_v for_o if_o they_o can_v conceal_v it_o from_o man_n yet_o can_v they_o not_o from_o god_n and_o if_o god_n know_v it_o then_o can_v he_o reveal_v it_o to_o the_o world_n when_o it_o please_v he_o again_o whereas_o abel_n blood_n cry_v when_o he_o be_v dead_a it_o teach_v we_o that_o god_n have_v a_o care_n of_o abel_n both_o live_n and_o dead_a for_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o say_v his_o blood_n cry_v if_o god_n hear_v not_o that_o cry_n but_o it_o be_v apparent_a he_o hear_v it_o for_o he_o revenge_v it_o and_o punish_v cain_n when_o abel_n be_v dead_a and_o can_v not_o revenge_v it_o himself_o and_o this_o care_n god_n have_v not_o over_o abel_n alone_o but_o over_o all_o his_o child_n and_o as_o the_o psalmist_n say_v precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o death_n of_o his_o saint_n 116.115_o that_o which_o be_v vile_a and_o of_o no_o regard_n in_o the_o world_n be_v precious_a with_o god_n tyrant_n make_v havoc_n of_o the_o church_n and_o kill_v they_o up_o by_o heap_n but_o god_n record_v up_o every_o one_o and_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o revenge_v it_o when_o they_o be_v dead_a for_o if_o god_n have_v bottle_n for_o the_o tear_n of_o his_o servant_n sure_o much_o more_o have_v he_o bottle_n for_o their_o blood_n the_o use_n whereof_o be_v to_o teach_v we_o in_o all_o extremity_n of_o danger_n or_o distress_n to_o learn_v patience_n yea_o though_o we_o be_v sure_a to_o die_v yet_o as_o christ_n say_v to_o possess_v our_o soul_n with_o patience_n for_o we_o have_v one_o 21.19_o will_v hear_v the_o cause_n and_o revenge_v our_o quarrel_n when_o we_o be_v go_v so_o that_o if_o we_o be_v patient_a we_o lose_v nothing_o but_o if_o we_o be_v impatient_a we_o get_v nothing_o let_v we_o therefore_o hold_v our_o tongue_n for_o the_o wrong_n do_v to_o we_o cry_v loud_o enough_o to_o god_n for_o revenge_n who_o will_v hear_v it_o as_o assure_o as_o he_o do_v abel_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o abel_n speak_v then_o even_o after_o he_o be_v dead_a the_o second_o point_n be_v he_o speak_v also_o yet_o and_o that_o three_o way_n first_o his_o faith_n yet_o speak_v because_o it_o admonish_v all_o man_n every_o where_o who_o either_o hear_v or_o read_v this_o story_n to_o become_v such_o as_o abel_n be_v namely_o true_a worshipper_n of_o the_o true_a god_n for_o in_o abel_n example_n it_o provoke_v all_o man_n to_o be_v like_o he_o because_o it_o assure_v they_o of_o the_o same_o regard_n and_o reward_n with_o god_n that_o abel_n have_v and_o so_o abel_n faith_n be_v a_o never_o die_a preacher_n to_o all_o age_n of_o the_o church_n here_o we_o learn_v that_o the_o holy_a example_n of_o god_n child_n be_v real_a teach_n and_o loud_o preach_v to_o other_o man_n for_o there_o be_v a_o double_a teach_n namely_o in_o word_n or_o deed_n it_o belong_v to_o the_o minister_n to_o teach_v in_o word_n and_o to_o all_o man_n to_o teach_v by_o their_o deed_n and_o good_a example_n and_o if_o the_o minister_n teach_v not_o thus_o also_o it_o be_v the_o worse_a both_o for_o he_o and_o his_o hearer_n it_o suffice_v not_o for_o he_o to_o teach_v by_o vocal_a sermon_n that_o be_v by_o good_a doctrine_n but_o withal_o by_o real_a sermon_n that_o be_v by_o good_a life_n his_o faith_n his_o zeal_n his_o patience_n his_o mercy_n and_o all_o other_o his_o virtue_n must_v speak_v and_o cry_v &_o call_v to_o other_o man_n to_o be_v like_a unto_o he_o which_o if_o he_o practise_v careful_o in_o his_o life_n as_o abel_n do_v then_o shall_v his_o virtue_n speak_v for_o he_o to_o all_o posterity_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a again_o abel_n though_o dead_a may_v be_v say_v to_o speak_v because_o howsoever_o his_o body_n be_v dead_a yet_o in_o soul_n and_o spirit_n he_o live_v with_o god_n in_o heaven_n and_o thus_o the_o word_n speak_v may_v be_v understand_v because_o it_o be_v here_o oppose_v to_o death_n by_o which_o he_o be_v dead_a yet_o speak_v that_o be_v be_v dead_a in_o body_n yet_o live_v in_o soul_n which_o life_n with_o god_n be_v obtain_v unto_o by_o his_o true_a and_o save_a faith_n three_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o speak_v yet_o as_o all_o other_o god_n martyr_n be_v say_v to_o cry_v in_o the_o revelation_n 6.10_o from_o under_o the_o altar_n how_o long_a lord_n holy_a and_o true_a do_v thou_o not_o avenge_v our_o blood_n on_o they_o that_o dwell_v on_o the_o earth_n as_o this_o be_v true_a of_o all_o martyr_n so_o special_o of_o abel_n the_o first_o martyr_n of_o all_o which_o word_n be_v not_o speak_v neither_o by_o he_o nor_o they_o vocal_o with_o uttrance_n of_o voice_n but_o it_o be_v so_o say_v to_o signify_v what_o fervent_a desire_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v in_o heaven_n of_o the_o full_a manifestation_n of_o god_n glory_n in_o their_o body_n and_o of_o a_o utter_a abolishment_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n which_o their_o desire_n they_o doubtless_o utter_v to_o god_n in_o a_o more_o excellent_a manner_n then_o in_o this_o world_n we_o can_v utter_v any_o thing_n with_o our_o voice_n and_o thus_o abel_n speak_v yet_o and_o shall_v speak_v till_o the_o world_n end_n hitherto_o of_o the_o first_o example_n the_o example_n of_o abel_n the_o second_o be_v of_o henoch_n in_o these_o word_n henoch_n by_o faith_n henoch_n be_v translate_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n 5._o neither_o be_v he_o find_v for_o god_n take_v he_o away_o for_o before_o he_o be_v translate_v he_o be_v report_v of_o that_o he_o have_v please_v god_n etc._n etc._n the_o second_o example_n of_o faith_n be_v take_v also_o out_o of_o the_o old_a world_n before_o the_o flood_n and_o it_o be_v of_o henoch_n the_o seven_o from_o adam_n to_o who_o strange_a and_o miraculous_a thing_n befall_v by_o reason_n of_o his_o faith_n let_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n be_v first_o examine_v by_o faith_n that_o be_v by_o his_o confidence_n in_o the_o messiah_n or_o his_o save_a faith_n he_o be_v take_v away_o take_v away_o that_o be_v from_o earth_n to_o heaven_n not_o by_o a_o ordinary_a work_n but_o miraculous_o as_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o next_o word_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n that_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o feel_v death_n nor_o any_o dissolution_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o therefore_o his_o take_v away_o be_v miraculous_a for_o to_o be_v take_v away_o by_o death_n be_v a_o ordinary_a work_n but_o to_o be_v take_v away_o and_o yet_o not_o die_v that_o be_v miraculous_a and_o extraordinary_a and_o such_o be_v henoch_n so_o then_o the_o substance_n of_o these_o word_n be_v thus_o much_o henoch_n have_v this_o grace_n from_o god_n to_o believe_v steadfast_o in_o the_o messiah_n to_o come_v be_v likewise_o honour_v with_o this_o high_a prerogative_n to_o be_v take_v into_o heaven_n without_o taste_v of_o death_n &_o further_a be_v take_v away_o to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v not_o die_v thus_o we_o have_v the_o meaning_n now_o concern_v this_o translation_n of_o henoch_n there_o be_v two_o opinion_n some_o think_v he_o be_v translate_v in_o soul_n only_o and_o not_o in_o body_n and_o they_o say_v he_o die_v in_o the_o translation_n so_o as_o his_o soul_n only_o be_v take_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o his_o body_n sleep_v in_o the_o earth_n though_o this_o appear_v false_a at_o the_o first_o sight_n yet_o let_v we_o see_v their_o reason_n and_o what_o they_o can_v say_v for_o themselves_o their_o first_o reason_n be_v this_o no_o mortal_a body_n unglorify_v can_v enter_v into_o heaven_n but_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o his_o glorification_n therefore_o his_o body_n can_v not_o come_v in_o heaven_n answer_n it_o be_v certain_a it_o be_v glorify_v ere_o it_o come_v in_o heaven_n if_o they_o reply_v it_o be_v not_o mention_v i_o answer_v it_o follow_v not_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o every_o circumstance_n of_o every_o action_n be_v not_o mention_v for_o many_o circumstance_n of_o action_n must_v necessary_o be_v suppose_v &_o such_o a_o one_o be_v this_o again_o the_o glorification_n of_o his_o body_n be_v here_o plain_o enough_o imply_v where_o it_o be_v say_v he_o be_v translate_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n now_o if_o his_o body_n see_v not_o death_n it_o be_v make_v immortal_a which_o be_v a_o special_a part_n of_o glorification_n their_o second_o
