which_o thing_n seem_v not_o to_o be_v needful_a say_v they_o see_v the_o elect_a shall_v be_v save_v and_o the_o reprobate_n condemn_v by_o decree_n and_o sentence_n give_v upon_o they_o before_o they_o be_v bear_v to_o this_o we_o do_v answer_v that_o these_o exhortation_n and_o comnination_n be_v very_o necessary_a to_o both_o twain_o because_o god_n lead_v we_o man_n always_o like_o reasonable_a creature_n not_o like_a in_o sensible_a stock_n or_o stone_n and_o to_o the_o elect_v they_o be_v mooste_o necessary_a prick_n and_o spur_n to_o stir_v the_o dull_a flesh_n towards_o his_o duty_n as_o all_o good_a man_n feal_v and_o can_v bear_v wytnesse_n to_o the_o reprobate_n they_o be_v testymony_n of_o the_o good_a will_n of_o the_o almighty_a god_n to_o they_o open_v and_o utter_v but_o open_o resist_v refuse_v and_o reject_v accord_v to_o the_o say_n of_o our_o savioure_n christ_n if_o i_o have_v not_o come_v and_o speak_v to_o they_o they_o have_v have_v no_o sin_n but_o now_o they_o have_v no_o pretence_n or_o excuse_n for_o their_o sin_n peradventure_o you_o will_v answer_v i_o they_o can_v not_o obey_v unto_o it_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o i_o pray_v you_o because_o they_o lack_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n to_o lead_v they_o you_o will_v say_v i_o dare_v easy_o grant_v you_o but_o will_v they_o grant_v this_o will_v they_o think_v you_o submytte_a theym selfe_o under_o poor_a christ_n and_o the_o folyshenes_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o not_o rather_o boast_n and_o brag_v their_o wisdom_n their_o knowledge_n and_o their_o up_o right_a deal_n and_o rightousnes_n be_v not_o these_o the_o man_n that_o dare_v thus_o boast_v we_o know_v aswell_o as_o the_o preacher_n can_v tell_v us._n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n depart_v from_o we_o to_o speak_v with_o he_o as_o be_v say_v to_o micha_n ii_o of_o the_o king_n xxii_o chap._n or_o as_o the_o phariseis_n do_v answer_n unto_o christ_n be_v we_o blind_a to_o who_o our_o savioure_n

submission_n and_o subieccyon_n to_o poor_a christ_n that_o contrary_a wise_n they_o do_v willing_o and_o natural_o follow_v their_o father_n lucifer_n who_o do_v lift_v himself_o arrogant_o above_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o ryghteousnesse_n and_o evermore_o fight_v against_o christ_n though_o the_o mighty_a power_n and_o high_a wysdome_n of_o god_n turn_v his_o evell_a will_n and_o all_o theyre_n to_o his_o glory_n and_o good_a purpose_n none_o other_o way_n then_o bodilye_o and_o natural_a darkness_n which_o by_o the_o wonderful_a wysdome_n of_o god_n clearelye_o set_v forth_o the_o
