the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o which_o shall_v have_v a_o form_n of_o religion_n without_o the_o zeal_n and_o power_n and_o life_n of_o it_o and_o if_o zeal_n turn_v away_o god_n wrath_n certain_o

again_o lord_n do_v zeal_n turn_v away_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n then_o where_o be_v our_o zealous_a affection_n why_o be_v we_o not_o zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n and_o zealous_a against_o

and_o mark_v it_o well_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o abstain_v from_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o that_o alone_a that_o god_n will_v accept_v but_o he_o look_v that_o you_o shall_v hate_v sin_n as_o it_o

be_v so_o perhaps_o you_o be_v angry_a with_o sin_n but_o zeal_n you_o know_v be_v a_o intention_n of_o the_o affection_n of_o hatred_n and_o it_o be_v require_v that_o you_o hate_v sin_n revel_v 2.6_o this_o thou_o have_v that_o thou_o hate_v the_o work_n of_o the_o nicolaitan_o which_o i_o also_o hate_n you_o will_v say_v how_o do_v they_o differ_v you_o shall_v know_v hatred_n by_o this_o first_o it_o be_v a_o constant_a affection_n it_o abide_v with_o we_o anger_n go_v away_o as_o all_o passion_n do_v it_o be_v but_o for_o a_o fit_a for_o a_o flash_n on_o some_o occasion_n species_n again_o hatred_n be_v always_o of_o general_n the_o sheep_n hate_v all_o wolf_n we_o hate_v all_o toad_n all_o serpent_n i_o say_v wheresoever_o there_o be_v hatred_n it_o turn_v to_o the_o whole_a

soever_o they_o be_v last_o hatred_n seek_v the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o the_o thing_n hate_v ●arkes_n anger_n will_v have_v but_o a_o proportion_n of_o justice_n as_o aristotle_n say_v now_o be_v it_o so_o with_o you_o do_v you_o seek_v the_o utter_a destruction_n of_o sin_n abstain_v not_o only_a from_o gross_a sin_n but_o from_o all_o dalliance_n from_o the_o least_o touch_n of_o sin_n cleanse_v yourselves_o from_o all_o pollusion_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n if_o you_o will_v be_v zealous_a for_o the_o lord_n then_o know_v that_o this_o be_v require_v that_o you_o not_o only_o do_v thing_n but_o that_o you_o do_v they_o zealous_o that_o you_o not_o only_o abstain_v from_o sin_n but_o that_o you_o hate_v it_o again_o truth_n if_o it_o be_v zeal_n that_o turn_v away_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n then_o where_o be_v our_o boldness_n our_o courage_n our_o forwardness_n for_o the_o truth_n why_o be_v we_o so_o fearful_a and_o rich_a of_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o

but_o you_o will_v say_v object_n a_o man_n may_v be_v too_o bold_a it_o be_v very_o true_a boldness_n when_o the_o horse_n run_v up_o and_o down_o and_o be_v at_o liberty_n

master_n you_o must_v take_v he_o for_o your_o husband_n so_o as_o to_o be_v divorce_v from_o all_o other_o lover_n for_o this_o know_v that_o christ_n and_o good_a fellowship_n that_o christ_n and_o

if_o you_o will_v have_v christ_n you_o must_v take_v he_o as_o a_o husband_n to_o be_v to_o he_o a_o love_n to_o love_v he_o to_o have_v your_o will_n subject_a to_o his_o will_n you_o must_v take_v

thus_o you_o shall_v have_v he_o and_o when_o you_o shall_v have_v he_o you_o shall_v have_v all_o thing_n with_o he_o as_o christ_n say_v to_o his_o father_n we_o be_v one_o thou_o in_o i_o and_o i_o

of_o yourselves_o and_o see_v what_o your_o own_o righteousness_n be_v that_o it_o will_v not_o serve_v your_o turn_n and_o therefore_o seek_v for_o a_o righteousness_n at_o his_o hand_n you_o may_v be_v sure_a he_o will_v not_o deny_v you_o you_o may_v see_v what_o paul_n say_v galat._n 3.8_o that_o you_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o seek_v you_o shall_v obtain_v say_v he_o if_o a_o angel_n from_o

now_o shall_v question_v this_o gospel_n and_o think_v to_o bring_v something_o of_o his_o own_o and_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o this_o clear_a promise_n nay_o if_o a_o angel_n come_v from_o heaven_n and_o contradict_v it_o let_v he_o be_v accurse_v this_o be_v the_o true_a gospel_n and_o you_o may_v believe_v it_o if_o you_o can_v therefore_o do_v as_o paul_n do_v philip._n 3.9_o that_o reckon_v

when_o you_o come_v to_o see_v your_o condition_n you_o desire_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n with_o that_o earnestness_n that_o he_o do_v when_o he_o reckon_v all_o as_o dross_n and_o dung_n

have_v a_o apprehension_n of_o wrath_n due_a for_o sin_n and_o so_o his_o misery_n under_o the_o same_o though_o a_o man_n be_v never_o so_o miserable_a yet_o if_o he_o have_v a_o bottom_n to_o stand_v on_o he_o will_v not_o go_v to_o christ_n but_o when_o he_o see_v his_o own_o nothingnesse_n and_o withal_o that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n hang_v over_o he_o so_o that_o he_o must_v sink_v utter_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o help_v he_o when_o both_o these_o concur_v a_o man_n be_v humble_v man_n may_v have_v one_o without_o the_o other_o as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n o_o you_o generation_n of_o viper_n who_o have_v warn_v you_o to_o fly_v from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v they_o be_v sensible_a of_o wrath_n and_o have_v so_o much_o to_o humble_v they_o but_o they_o do_v not_o see_v that_o viperous_a serpentine_a evil_a disposition_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o again_o many_o man_n may_v see_v their_o sin_n and_o acknowledge_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o they_o have_v but_o they_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o wrath_n god_n have_v not_o charge_v sin_n upon_o their_o conscience_n nor_o reveal_v his_o wrath_n and_o therefore_o they_o go_v on_o in_o a_o senseless_a manner_n and_o be_v no_o more_o move_v with_o the_o other_o

we_o shall_v draw_v near_o to_o he_o therefore_o labour_v to_o strengthen_v your_o faith_n so_o do_v moses_n it_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o his_o faith_n that_o make_v he_o cleave_v so_o fast_o to_o
