and_o deride_v at_o he_o the_o jew_n make_v he_o a_o king_n but_o it_o be_v in_o mockery_n when_o they_o put_v upon_o he_o a_o purple_a robe_n and_o a_o reed_n into_o his_o hand_n neither_o will_v they_o throw_v down_o their_o righteousness_n before_o he_o think_v christ_n not_o worthy_a of_o their_o tribute_n so_o unto_o this_o day_n all_o impenitent_a sinner_n do_v rebel_n against_o the_o crown_n and_o dignity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o will_v not_o subject_v themselves_o to_o christ_n sceptre_n and_o the_o government_n of_o his_o spirit_n according_a to_o his_o word_n they_o will_v be_v lawless_a and_o live_v as_o they_o listen_v they_o will_v not_o vouchsafe_v to_o throw_v down_o the_o weapon_n of_o sin_n pride_n drunkenness_n uncleanness_n etc._n etc._n and_o their_o stubborn_a will_n and_o unruly_a affection_n jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o a_o ungodly_a world_n be_v not_o worthy_a of_o these_o thing_n so_o all_o ungodly_a man_n do_v deny_v to_o

the_o truth_n and_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o the_o child_n of_o wisdom_n do_v justisie_n wisdom_n 1_o when_o their_o love_n to_o religion_n truth_n and_o holiness_n bring_v they_o out_o of_o love_n with_o the_o world_n when_o their_o embracement_n of_o these_o thing_n divorce_v their_o heart_n from_o all_o outward_a thing_n for_o christ_n and_o for_o his_o truth_n and_o religion_n sake_n by_o our_o self-denial_n we_o justify_v wisdom_n to_o be_v the_o principal_a thing_n to_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o all_o the_o world_n to_o be_v better_a than_o riches_n honour_n the_o

when_o the_o child_n of_o wisdom_n can_v willing_o suffer_v the_o loss_n of_o riches_n liberty_n preferment_n life_n and_o all_o they_o have_v for_o religion_n for_o christ_n for_o a_o good_a cause_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n then_o do_v they_o justify_v to_o all_o the_o world_n that_o these_o thing_n be_v dear_a to_o they_o than_o their_o own_o sives_z our_o suffering_n for_o religion_n be_v our_o magnify_v of_o it_o to_o be_v condemn_v for_o righteousness_n sake_n be_v to_o justify_v righteousness_n suffer_v christian_n be_v the_o honour_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o christ_n thus_o moses_n justify_v wisdom_n he_o part_v with_o the_o best_a thing_n that_o egypt_n can_v give_v and_o content_v himself_o with_o the_o worst_a condition_n of_o the_o israelite_n this_o show_v that_o he_o justify_v christ_n to_o be_v better_o yea_o the_o suffering_n and_o reproach_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v better_a than_o all_o the_o treasure_n of_o egypt_n the_o pharisee_n will_v not_o thus_o justify_v christ_n self-denial_n and_o their_o popular_a outward_a pharisaical_a holiness_n can_v not_o stand_v together_o it_o be_v say_v of_o they_o that_o they_o love_v the_o praise_n of_o man_n more_o than_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o so_o will_v not_o be_v disciple_n of_o christ_n as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v dishonourable_a for_o they_o as_o salvian_n in_o his_o time_n

the_o synagogue_n they_o dare_v not_o justify_v christ_n so_o still_o in_o all_o generation_n too_o many_o earthly_a man_n do_v justify_v and_o have_v applaud_v the_o world_n above_o religion_n and_o holiness_n but_o yet_o still_o wisdom_n ha●h_v be_v justify_v of_o all_o her_o child_n 2._o when_o we_o stick_v to_o religion_n to_o the_o worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n then_o do_v we_o justify_v wisdom_n when_o we_o resolve_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o his_o own_o way_n let_v all_o command_n and_o threat_n affront_v we_o yet_o then_o will_v we_o stick_v to_o god_n testimony_n and_o to_o the_o pure_a worship_n of_o god_n thus_o daniel_n stick_v to_o god_n service_n against_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o king_n that_o contain_v a_o month_n atheism_n in_o it_o dan._n 6.7_o he_o have_v rather_o be_v tear_v asunder_o with_o a_o whole_a den_n of_o lion_n than_o be_v draw_v to_o worship_v a_o man_n in_o stead_n of_o god_n he_o will_v pray_v three_o time_n in_o a_o day_n to_o his_o god_n though_o the_o king_n who_o favourite_n he_o be_v will_v cast_v he_o out_o of_o favour_n and_o all_o the_o prince_n and_o precedent_n seek_v thereby_o to_o ensnare_v he_o though_o the_o wicked_a mock_v such_o as_o hear_v the_o word_n pray_v and_o perform_v all_o the_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n more_o frequent_o than_o themselves_o yet_o the_o child_n of_o wisdom_n will_v justify_v ●t_a rejoice_v as_o the_o psalmist_n speak_v of_o the_o sun_n to_o run_v their_o course_n daily_o of_o god_n service_n the_o child_n of_o wisdom_n be_v not_o like_o some_o seaman_n that_o boast_v they_o can_v sail_v with_o all_o wind_n they_o can_v do_v nothing_o against_o the_o truth_n they_o like_v wisdom_n best_o though_o it_o do_v not_o always_o se●ve_v their_o own_o end_n and_o occasion_n they_o hold_v on_o in_o the_o way_n of_o religion_n as_o a_o traveller_n ride_v in_o earnest_a business_n that_o must_v go_v on_o in_o his_o way_n whether_o fair_a or_o foul_a in_o company_n or_o alone_o

go_v not_o needful_a that_o they_o live_v and_o when_o the_o child_n of_o this_o world_n be_v resolve_v to_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o be_v ready_a not_o to_o be_v that_o they_o may_v be_v fit_a for_o those_o in_o high_a place_n who_o person_n they_o have_v in_o admiration_n for_o advantage_n sake_n the_o child_n of_o wisdom_n do_v abhor_v all_o inconstancy_n in_o religion_n or_o any_o thing_n which_o may_v argue_v the_o least_o unfaithfulness_n to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o prince_n and_o captain_n of_o their_o salvation_n religion_n be_v as_o a_o garment_n which_o
