after_o the_o flesh_n 16._o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v too_o the_o galatian_n therefore_o we_o must_v show_v by_o our_o outward_a fruit_n that_o we_o be_v true_o join_v too_o jesus_n christ_n 5._o and_o that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n now_o hereupon_o saint_n paul_n add_v further_a that_o we_o must_v be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o charity_n this_o word_n charity_n or_o love_n may_v be_v take_v as_o well_o for_o the_o love_n that_o god_n bear_v we_o as_o for_o the_o mutual_a love_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o bear_v one_o towards_o another_o but_o the_o very_a true_a and_o native_a sense_n of_o saint_n paul_n here_o be_v that_o he_o mean_v too_o have_v we_o knit_v together_o for_o as_o he_o speak_v heretofore_o of_o god_n free_a love_n towards_o we_o so_o now_o he_o show_v how_o faith_n import_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v brotherly_a love_v one_o towards_o another_o and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n bring_v we_o always_o to_o that_o point_n insomuch_o that_o when_o there_o be_v any_o speak_n of_o the_o full_a perfection_n of_o good_a life_n faith_n go_v before_o &_o then_o come_v charity_n next_o unto_o it_o for_o the_o end_n that_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o be_v the_o utter_a abace_v of_o ourselves_o too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v seek_v all_o our_o welfare_n at_o god_n hand_n and_o that_o our_o seek_v of_o it_o there_o may_v be_v first_o too_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o only_a son_n and_o second_o too_o call_v upon_o he_o too_o settle_v our_o faith_n in_o he_o too_o flee_v whole_o for_o refuge_n too_o his_o mercy_n and_o after_o as_o every_o man_n feel_v himself_o bind_v unto_o he_o as_o all_o of_o we_o be_v exceed_o so_o to_o acknowledge_v by_o our_o thanksgiving_n that_o he_o be_v our_o righteousness_n our_o holiness_n our_o victory_n our_o joy_n our_o glory_n and_o our_o happiness_n that_o we_o may_v perform_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v say_v

whole_o upon_o our_o god_n or_o else_o all_o the_o virtuousness_n which_o we_o seem_v too_o have_v before_o man_n shall_v be_v but_o filth_n and_o dung_n now_o then_o have_v we_o faith_n charity_n must_v be_v match_v with_o it_o and_o we_o must_v live_v even_o and_o upright_o one_o with_o another_o &_o every_o of_o we_o acknowledge_v thus_o i_o be_v not_o create_v for_o myself_o nor_o to_o seek_v my_o own_o private_a benefit_n &_o commodity_n but_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o my_o neighbour_n also_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o abstain_v from_o all_o guile_n wrong_v outrage_n and_o

add_v now_o that_o we_o must_v also_o be_v ground_v in_o charity_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v we_o must_v not_o have_v alone_a some_o fit_n or_o pang_n of_o love_n as_o many_o man_n have_v but_o there_o must_v be_v a_o steadfastness_n and_o even_o hold_v on_o in_o it_o all_o our_o life_n long_o for_o a_o thing_n may_v give_v a_o great_a blaze_n and_o yet_o quail_v anon_o after_o behold_v a_o

correct_v the_o vice_n of_o love_a by_o start_n or_o fit_n as_o they_o say_v which_o be_v too_o common_a a_o thing_n nevertheless_o it_o be_v a_o fondness_n too_o concluâ—â—_n therefore_o that_o our_o

naughtipacke_n will_v be_v afraid_a of_o he_o and_o that_o fear_n be_v as_o a_o bond_n that_o can_v be_v break_v howbeit_o saint_n paul_n presuppose_v here_o that_o the_o faithful_a be_v at_o one_o

and_o all_o shall_v be_v whist_a and_o still_o out_o of_o hand_n again_o no_o for_o the_o devil_n do_v so_o set_v in_o his_o foot_n that_o the_o strife_n and_o contention_n turn_v too_o a_o deadly_a

that_o peace_n shall_v never_o be_v good_a nor_o allow_v of_o god_n but_o rather_o accurse_a unless_o it_o have_v a_o good_a groundwork_n for_o what_o a_o peace_n be_v it_o if_o we_o will_v now_o adays_o link_v in_o with_o the_o papist_n we_o shall_v be_v fain_o too_o forsake_v the_o pure_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o too_o bend_v ourselves_o against_o god_n and_o too_o defile_v

much_o shall_v we_o be_v fain_o too_o do_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o turk_n for_o there_o be_v none_o of_o they_o both_o but_o he_o seek_v too_o wrap_v we_o in_o destruction_n and_o too_o pluck_v we_o away_o from_o god_n now_o if_o there_o be_v such_o atonement_n among_o we_o as_o we_o will_v needs_o enjoy_v all_o that_o our_o fleshly_a lust_n crave_v what_o confusion_n will_v there_o be_v uere_o oftentimes_o god_n servant_n be_v accuze_v of_o conspiracy_n and_o of_o spiteful_a malice_n and_o stubbornness_n because_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n too_o consent_v too_o any_o

too_o be_v and_o devise_v what_o they_o listen_v of_o their_o own_o brain_n so_o that_o albeit_o there_o be_v preach_v still_o yet_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v free_a according_a too_o god_n word_n if_o god_n servant_n be_v drive_v too_o this_o needs_o must_v we_o be_v trouble_v by_o satan_n &_o his_o champion_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v both_o blame_v and_o defame_a everywhere_o for_o such_o folk_n will_v always_o do_v their_o office_n in_o turn_v good_a into_o evil_a by_o their_o false_a report_n and_o flanders_n howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v no_o peace_n be_v commendable_a but_o such_o as_o

saint_n paul_n call_v we_o back_o here_o too_o god_n and_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o unto_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o baptism_n too_o show_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o agree_v among_o ourselves_o now_o then_o we_o have_v here_o two_o point_n too_o bear_v in_o mind_n the_o one_o be_v that_o in_o seek_v atonement_n with_o man_n we_o must_v always_o have_v our_o eye_n upon_o god_n and_o when_o we_o be_v come_v too_o it_o we_o must_v be_v settle_v in_o it_o more_o and_o more_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o we_o must_v ever_o have_v a_o care_n of_o now_o in_o general_n it_o be_v true_a that_o peace_n be_v too_o be_v desire_v and_o that_o the_o very_a name_n of_o it_o be_v have_v in_o estimation_n among_o man_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v not_o so_o shroud_v ourselves_o under_o the_o shadow_n of_o peace_n as_o too_o separate_v ourselves_o from_o god_n that_o in_o the_o end_n we_o make_v war_n against_o he_o and_o he_o proclaim_v we_o too_o be_v his_o enemy_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o must_v be_v at_o continual_a battle_n with_o the_o wicked_a for_o in_o asmuch_o as_o they_o serve_v satan_n they_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o fight_v against_o god_n and_o our_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o be_v cold_a and_o negligent_a in_o that_o behalf_n but_o zealous_a in_o set_v ourselves_o against_o they_o insomuch_o that_o although_o they_o be_v in_o honour_n and_o credit_n yet_o let_v we_o abhor_v they_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n let_v they_o be_v unto_o we_o as_o

than_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o now_o than_o if_o we_o knit_v together_o in_o god_n let_v we_o follow_v the_o rule_n that_o be_v give_v we_o here_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n too_o be_v so_o abse_z in_o
