thus_o you_o see_v what_o they_o esteem_v to_o be_v pureness_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n but_o we_o know_v that_o the_o cheefseruice_n which_o god_n require_v be_v that_o we_o shall_v whole_o

they_o be_v angel_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o poor_a soul_n that_o behave_v themselves_o after_o the_o manner_n aforesaid_a and_o why_o because_o they_o sing_v matin_n very_o devout_o &_o chant_v

when_v all_o come_v to_o all_o it_o be_v but_o flat_a mockery_n &_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o they_o wilful_o corrupt_v god_n word_n for_o there_o be_v such_o gross_a and_o beastly_a ignorance_n in_o they_o that_o very_a child_n may_v just_o spit_v in_o their_o face_n for_o it_o so_o then_o the_o papist_n be_v a_o fair_a look_a glass_n too_o we_o at_o this_o day_n for_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v here_o in_o s._n paul_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o many_o of_o they_o vaunt_v themselves_o to_o be_v god_n child_n and_o householdmeynie_a of_o his_o church_n and_o yet_o

not_o to_o go_v any_o further_a too_o show_v that_o the_o matter_n which_o s._n paul_n treat_v of_o here_o be_v verify_v too_o much_o of_o the_o popedom_n for_o where_o abouts_o be_v our_o great_a strife_n now_o adays_o but_o for_o freewill_n for_o merit_n for_o satisfaction_n and_o for_o such_o other_o thing_n the_o papist_n say_v that_o we_o be_v able_a by_o our_o own_o freewill_n to_o purchase_v grace_n at_o god_n hand_n not_o that_o we_o need_v not_o too_o be_v aid_v and_o succour_v by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n but_o because_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a match_v together_o say_v they_o between_o god_n and_o we_o so_o as_o god_n work_v one_o piece_n and_o we_o another_o thus_o do_v they_o make_v we_o god_n marrow_n and_o like_a as_o our_o strength_n will_v be_v to_o weak_a if_o it_o be_v not_o succour_v on_o god_n behalf_n so_o shall_v god_n grace_v say_v they_o be_v unavaylable_a if_o we_o make_v it_o not_o of_o force_n by_o our_o own_o move_v thereunto_o and_o hereupon_o again_o they_o forge_v &_o build_v their_o merit_n there_o be_v none_o other_o talk_n among_o they_o but_o of_o purchace_v the_o realm_n of_o paradise_n by_o make_v god_n behold_v too_o they_o &_o then_o step_v forth_o their_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n to_o ransom_n all_o the_o fault_n that_o they_o have_v commit_v thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o the_o papist_n prate_n and_o jangle_n thereupon_o they_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v blasphemy_n too_o say_v that_o god_n law_n be_v impossible_a and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o perform_v it_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o he_o may_v full_o discharge_v himself_o of_o it_o when_o he_o list_v it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o they_o too_o prate_v after_o that_o fashyon_n in_o the_o shadow_n but_o they_o that_o say_v so_o be_v naughty_a ruffian_n drunkard_n swearer_n and_o folk_n give_v too_o all_o villainy_n and_o outrage_n for_o man_n know_v well_o enough_o what_o the_o holiness_n of_o the_o moonke_n of_o the_o shaveling_n and_o of_o all_o the_o whole_a rabble_n of_o their_o rifraffe_n and_o cankerwoorme_n be_v but_o we_o on_o our_o side_n say_v that_o we_o be_v b●●ne_v the_o bondslave_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v h●ld_v in_o so_o streyt_n band_n under_o the_o tyranny_n of_o satan_n that_o we_o can_v so_o much_o as_o think_v one_o good_a thought_n of_o well_o do_v but_o go_v forward_o still_o unto_o all_o evil_a like_a as_o if_o a_o ass_n shall_v always_o bear_v his_o yoke_n or_o burden_n with_o he_o and_o yet_o we_o sin_v not_o but_o willing_o but_o how_o soever_o we_o fare_v we_o be_v so_o sape_v in_o sin_n that_o natural_o we_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n but_o offend_v god_n and_o therefore_o that_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o enlarge_v we_o and_o set_v we_o at_o liberty_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n moreover_o we_o say_v that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v unpossible_a to_o be_v fulfil_v and_o that_o it_o show_v we_o our_o duty_n to_o the_o end_n to_o condemn_v we_o &_o to_o stop_v our_o mouth_n &_o too_o make_v we_o come_v before_o god_n as_o wretched_a offender_n too_o obtain_v grace_n at_o his_o hand_n for_o the_o sin_n which_o we_o have_v commit_v and_o to_o confound_v we_o with_o shame_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v grant_v ourselves_o to_o be_v damn_v and_o seek_v to_o be_v save_v at_o god_n hand_n through_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n final_o we_o say_v that_o too_o justify_v ourselves_o before_o he_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o pass_v all_o our_o ability_n and_o that_o he_o supply_v our_o want_n because_o he_o sift_v we_o not_o with_o rigour_n nor_o enter_v into_o account_n with_o we_o &_o that_o when_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o there_o be_v none_o other_o satisfaction_n for_o it_o than_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v offer_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n nor_o any_o other_o clenze_v than_o to_o plunge_v ourselves_o over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o his_o blood_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o s._n paul_n be_v to_o be_v put_v in_o practice_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o disputation_n of_o the_o papist_n against_o us._n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o for_o all_o their_o

that_o their_o mother_n be_v agar_n or_o sinai_n and_o consequent_o that_o they_o be_v bondman_n bear_v and_o do_v tie_v the_o rope_n about_o their_o own_o neck_n because_o they_o have_v no_o will_n to_o go_v unto_o god_n too_o receyve_v the_o freedom_n that_o he_o offer_v they_o but_o will_v rather_o usurp_v to_o themselves_o the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o god_n only_o and_o will_v needs_o justify_v themselves_o by_o their_o own_o merit_n and_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o themselves_o therefore_o they_o be_v bondchildren_n and_o continue_v slave_n still_o and_o in_o the_o end_n must_v be_v drive_v quite_o out_o of_o the_o house_n as_o for_o we_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o what_o proof_n the_o doctrine_n have_v which_o we_o hold_v &_o what_o it_o bring_v with_o it_o which_o be_v

for_o we_o will_v hold_v altogether_o with_o the_o world_n if_o he_o shall_v let_v we_o alone_o too_o ourselves_o again_o in_o the_o sixteen_o of_o saint_n matthew_n it_o be_v say_v that_o fl●she_n

flesh_n and_o blood_n namely_o when_o they_o be_v compare_v untoo_o god_n to_o show_v that_o we_o have_v not_o aught_o but_o corruption_n in_o us._n true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o soul_n be_v immortal_a nevertheless_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o of_o we_o in_o way_n of_o contempt_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v void_a of_o presumption_n but_o as_o for_o the_o apostle_n they_o be_v

notwithstanding_o whensoever_o they_o be_v compare_v with_o god_n then_o must_v all_o that_o be_v of_o our_o own_o nature_n be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o term_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o why_o for_o else_o it_o shall_v come_v in_o question_n too_o know_v whether_o the_o apostle_n may_v by_o their_o own_o worthiness_n and_o excellency_n prejudice_n the_o gospel_n as_o the_o foresay_a troubler_n pretend_v to_o shroud_v themselves_o withal_o but_o saint_n paul_n show_v that_o if_o god_n withdraw_v that_o which_o be_v his_o there_o shall_v remain_v nothing_o either_o in_o peter_n john_n or_o james_n but_o that_o they_o be_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n as_o other_o man_n be_v so_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o corruption_n so_o then_o let_v we_o not_o abuse_v the_o

still_o that_o which_o be_v his_o own_o and_o if_o we_o compare_v he_o with_o his_o creature_n let_v we_o consider_v that_o all_o be_v but_o vanity_n and_o whatsoever_o commendation_n they_o have_v

the_o wash_n of_o they_o away_o which_o be_v do_v by_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n you_o see_v then_o that_o our_o righteousness_n be_v that_o god_n accept_v we_o

be_v the_o first_o benefit_n which_o we_o have_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o second_o be_v that_o whereas_o we_o be_v froward_a of_o our_o own_o nature_n and_o all_o that_o the_o papist_n

that_o be_v the_o second_o benefit_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n bring_v we_o and_o they_o be_v two_o thing_n knit_v together_o by_o unseparable_a band_n so_o that_o like_a as_o the_o

any_o man_n accuse_v the_o gospel_n that_o it_o give_v liberty_n to_o do_v evil_a and_o too_o sin_n we_o may_v always_o answer_v how_o so_o by_o the_o law_n we_o be_v always_o dead_a for_o there_o we_o see_v our_o own_o cursednesse_n which_o will_v leave_v we_o dismay_v in_o despair_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n although_o we_o be_v crucify_v that_o be_v too_o say_v although_o there_o be_v a_o

unto_o god_n they_o be_v wretched_a carcase_n full_a of_o rottenness_n but_o when_o they_o dye_v in_o themselves_o they_o live_v untoo_o god_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n saint_n paul_n in_o the_o twelve_o too_o the_o roman_n call_v we_o lyve_a sacrifice_n 1_o where_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o must_v be_v transform_v and_o utter_o gyve_v over_o our_o own_o reason_n and_o our_o own_o will_n too_o yield_v god_n such_o service_n as_o be_v meet_v for_o he_o too_o have_v he_o say_v offer_v up_o yourselves_o as_o lyve_a sacrifice_n so_o then_o in_o the_o law_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o deadly_a death_n a_o death_n that_o leave_v we_o utter_o overwhelm_v and_o sink_v even_o down_o intoo_o hell_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v a_o quicken_a death_n and_o why_o for_o we_o be_v crucify_v with_o jesus_n christ_n too_o live_v unto_o god_n that_o be_v too_o say_v 4_o our_o old_a man_n as_o saint_n paul_n term_v it_o in_o the_o six_o too_o the_o roman_n and_o that_o which_o we_o have_v of_o our_o own_o nature_n be_v do_v away_o howebeeit_v not_o at_o the_o first_o day_n but_o by_o little_a and_o little_a but_o how_o soever_o the_o case_n stand_v we_o shall_v perceyve_v that_o

which_o the_o law_n bring_v do_v not_o now_o than_o we_o see_v the_o very_a intent_n of_o saint_n paul_n and_o the_o natural_a meaning_n of_o this_o text_n therefore_o now_o a_o day_n when_o the_o

o_o say_v they_o be_v they_o so_o that_o be_v the_o next_o way_n to_o give_v every_o man_n the_o bridle_n too_o live_v after_o his_o own_o like_n and_o too_o cause_n that_o there_o may_v be_v no_o

that_o the_o liberty_n be_v purchase_v for_o we_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v tie_v too_o the_o thing_n which_o man_n will_v lay_v upon_o we_o of_o law_n and_o necessity_n in_o matter_n concern_v the_o spiritual_a government_n of_o our_o soul_n o_o say_v they_o see_v what_o come_v of_o it_o their_o desire_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o too_o

if_o we_o shall_v abide_v in_o the_o quamyre_n of_o the_o papist_n sure_o there_o will_v be_v nothing_o but_o death_n for_o us._n for_o be_v they_o not_o too_o fast_a asleep_a and_o utter_o dull_v

preace_v near_o unto_o god_n and_o all_o the_o people_n keep_v themselves_o a_o far_o off_o but_o we_o have_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v our_o priest_n by_o who_o the_o way_n be_v open_v we_o in_o his_o blood_n to_o make_v we_o to_o come_v unto_o god_n his_o father_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o he_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrews_n 11_o then_o if_o we_o receive_v the_o

if_o the_o angel_n shall_v come_v to_o account_v before_o god_n they_o can_v not_o answer_v to_o that_o perfection_n of_o rightuousnesse_n &_o much_o less_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o we_o which_o

at_o all_o adventure_n but_o accept_v the_o grace_n that_o he_o offer_v us._n then_o in_o asmuch_o as_o god_n promise_n depend_v not_o upon_o our_o desert_n but_o be_v altogether_o free_o and_o

lo_o what_o the_o life_n of_o christian_n be_v but_o s._n paul_n say_v here_o that_o if_o man_n will_v not_o acknowledge_v themselves_o to_o be_v utter_a enemy_n too_o god_n and_o full_a of_o all_o

if_o they_o will_v come_v unto_o he_o you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o first_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v be_v that_o we_o must_v fashion_v our_o 〈…〉_o example_n of_o our_o god_n so_o
