secret_a will_v be_v know_v or_o no_o a._n if_o he_o do_v reveal_v it_o it_o may_v q._n how_o do_v god_n reveal_v his_o secret_a will_n a._n two_o way_n sometime_o by_o his_o spirit_n as_o when_o he_o show_v his_o prophet_n many_o of_o his_o judgement_n that_o be_v to_o come_v sometime_o by_o the_o thing_n itself_o which_o he_o will_v or_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o will_n as_o when_o a_o thing_n do_v fall_v out_o which_o be_v before_o unknowen_a as_o for_o example_n a_o man_n do_v not_o know_v before_o it_o come_v whether_o he_o be_v sick_a or_o not_o or_o of_o what_o disease_n or_o when_o or_o how_o long_a but_o when_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v come_v to_o pass_v than_o it_o be_v manifest_v what_o be_v god_n will_n before_o concern_v that_o matter_n q._n show_v i_o what_o be_v our_o duty_n in_o respect_n of_o this_o secret_a will_n of_o god_n a._n our_o duty_n be_v twofold_a first_o we_o must_v not_o curious_o search_v after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o but_o worship_n &_o reverence_v it_o second_o before_o it_o be_v make_v manifest_a by_o the_o effect_n we_o must_v general_o rest_v quiet_o in_o the_o same_o q._n show_v i_o how_o by_o a_o example_n a._n thus_o a_o christian_a must_v resolve_v with_o himself_o whatsoever_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v with_o i_o whether_o i_o live_v or_o die_v whether_o he_o make_v i_o rich_a or_o poor_a etc._n etc._n i_o rest_v content_a with_o his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n q._n what_o must_v we_o do_v when_o his_o will_n be_v reveal_v unto_o we_o a._n then_o much_o more_o we_o must_v rest_v in_o it_o and_o be_v thankful_a for_o it_o as_o job_n be_v who_o say_v the_o lord_n have_v give_v &_o take_v even_o as_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n and_o so_o forth_o q._n what_o call_v you_o the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n a._n the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n be_v twofolde_v the_o one_o be_v that_o which_o be_v proper_o reveal_v in_o the_o law_n that_o be_v what_o god_n require_v to_o be_v do_v of_o we_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o law_n and_o after_o this_o we_o must_v inquire_v the_o other_o be_v in_o the_o gospel_n which_o show_v god_n will_n towards_o we_o and_o what_o he_o have_v decree_v of_o we_o in_o his_o eternal_a council_n as_o touch_v our_o salvation_n how_o god_n his_o will_n be_v reveal_v q._n god_n indeed_o by_o his_o law_n have_v make_v it_o know_v what_o his_o will_n be_v that_o of_o we_o must_v be_v do_v and_o fulfil_v but_o have_v he_o reveal_v in_o his_o word_n what_o be_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n towards_o we_o a._n yea_o he_o have_v so_o and_o that_o be_v prove_v by_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n follow_v joh._n 6.40_o ephe._n 1.5_o matth._n 3.17_o joh._n 5.39_o and_o after_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o will_n of_o god_n we_o must_v diligent_o inquire_v q._n but_o whether_o may_v this_o will_n of_o god_n be_v know_v of_o we_o or_o no_o a._n yes_o it_o may_v for_o as_o it_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o scripture_n so_o it_o be_v also_o confirm_v &_o seal_v before_o our_o eye_n in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o daily_a benefit_n which_o we_o receive_v from_o the_o lord_n q._n and_o be_v this_o sufficient_a to_o persuade_v we_o to_o believe_v his_o will_n a._n no_o for_o except_v the_o lord_n do_v persuade_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n we_o shall_v neither_o believe_v it_o nor_o know_v it_o as_o appeareth_z by_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n 1._o cor._n 2.16_o matth._n 11.25_o but_o if_o we_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o need_n to_o go_v up_o into_o heaven_n or_o to_o go_v beyond_o the_o sea_n to_o know_v it_o because_o the_o word_n be_v near_o unto_o we_o in_o our_o heart_n as_o paul_n say_v rom._n 10.16_o for_o touch_v the_o matter_n of_o our_o salvation_n the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v so_o clear_o lay_v open_a in_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o it_o need_v not_o to_o be_v more_o clear_a q._n if_o at_o any_o time_n we_o can_v know_v nor_o understand_v this_o will_n of_o god_n as_o touch_v our_o salvation_n in_o who_o be_v the_o fault_n a._n the_o fault_n be_v in_o ourselves_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o we_o be_v carnal_a and_o natural_a and_o destitute_a of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ._n 2.14_o for_o paul_n say_v the_o carnal_a and_o natural_a man_n can_v perceive_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n do_v come_v &_o open_v our_o understanding_n and_o correct_v our_o affection_n we_o can_v no_o long_o doubt_v of_o his_o will_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n immediate_o after_o add_v and_o say_v but_o we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ._n god_n will_v reveal_v to_o the_o elect._n q._n whether_o be_v this_o will_n of_o god_n make_v know_v to_o every_o one_o of_o god_n child_n particular_o or_o no_o a._n yes_o it_o be_v for_o paul_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n say_v 2.20_o that_o this_o will_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v unto_o he_o when_o he_o say_v christ_n love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o and_o to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o say_v but_o god_n have_v reveal_v therein_o id_fw-la est_fw-la the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n to_o we_o by_o his_o spirit_n q._n how_o do_v this_o prove_v that_o we_o can_v have_v this_o knowledge_n a._n very_o well_o for_o if_o all_o the_o elect_a be_v lead_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o paul_n have_v it_o will_v also_o persuade_v they_o of_o this_o will_n of_o god_n aswell_o as_o paul_n q._n but_o how_o prove_v you_o that_o they_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n a._n that_o the_o same_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o all_o the_o elect_a i_o prove_v it_o out_o of_o the_o prophet_n esay_n who_o say_v thus_o my_o word_n &_o my_o spirit_n shall_v not_o depart_v from_o thy_o mouth_n 59.21_o nor_o from_o thy_o seed_n for_o ever_o which_o be_v such_o a_o blessing_n as_o no_o blessing_n can_v be_v desire_v in_o this_o world_n great_n more_o excellent_a nor_o more_o heavenly_a for_o when_o we_o be_v once_o arm_v with_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o will_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v pass_v through_o fire_n and_o water_n without_o any_o danger_n we_o overcome_v the_o world_n &_o death_n and_o triumph_v over_o our_o enemy_n 8.38.39_o as_o paul_n do_v how_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v but_o one_o q._n whether_o be_v there_o more_o will_n in_o god_n then_o one_o or_o no_o a._n the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o some_o respect_n be_v but_o one_o and_o in_o some_o respect_n it_o be_v manifold_a q._n how_o be_v it_o but_o one_o a._n for_o the_o better_a determine_v of_o this_o point_n we_o must_v first_o consider_v how_o many_o signification_n there_o be_v of_o this_o word_n will_n in_o god_n 1_o it_o signify_v the_o faculty_n or_o ability_n of_o willing_a and_o this_o faculty_n or_o ability_n of_o willing_a in_o god_n be_v god_n himself_o and_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o god_n and_o so_o his_o will_n be_v but_o one_o 2_o it_o signify_v the_o act_n itself_o of_o willing_a and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o take_v it_o be_v also_o but_o one_o for_o god_n do_v in_o one_o and_o that_o eternal_a act_n will_v whatsoever_o he_o will_n 3_o it_o signify_v the_o free_a decree_n of_o his_o will_n concern_v either_o the_o do_v or_o the_o suffering_n of_o any_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v if_o we_o take_v it_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v still_o but_o one_o and_o that_o eternal_a and_o immutable_a q._n may_v we_o call_v the_o decree_n of_o god_n will_n the_o will_n of_o god_n a._n yea_o very_o well_o as_o the_o testament_n of_o one_o that_o be_v decease_v be_v call_v the_o last_o will_n of_o the_o testator_n because_o it_o be_v the_o firm_a and_o last_o decree_n of_o the_o testator_n will_v and_o mind_n concern_v the_o dispose_n of_o his_o good_n and_o the_o scripture_n do_v make_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o the_o counsel_n or_o decree_n of_o his_o will_n to_o be_v all_o one_o as_o appear_v in_o these_o place_n follow_v esay_n 46.10_o act._n 4.27.28_o joh._n 6.40_o how_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v manifold_a q._n how_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n manifold_a a._n there_o be_v two_o respect_n chief_o for_o which_o respect_n the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v manifold_a or_o more_o than_o one_o first_o for_o the_o diverse_a kind_n of_o thing_n which_o god_n do_v will_n &_o hereof_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v call_v some_o time_n the_o will_n of_o god_n concern_v we_o and_o sometime_o the_o will_n of_o god_n do_v by_o us._n the_o first_o be_v his_o favour_n and_o love_n towards_o we_o in_o christ_n jesus_n in_o which_o he_o will_v and_o decree_v that_o we_o be_v save_v through_o
