and_o commandment_n proceed_v from_o the_o angelical_a world_n and_o be_v ordain_v by_o the_o disposition_n of_o angel_n galat._n 3.19_o act_n 7.53_o speak_v and_o express_v by_o angel_n heb._n 2.2_o which_o word_n few_o man_n do_v understand_v viz._n that_o the_o law_n be_v from_o the_o angelical_a and_o not_o from_o the_o divine_a world_n see_v the_o divine_a world_n be_v and_o abide_v clean_a without_o law_n therefore_o the_o filiation_n or_o childship_n proceed_v only_o from_o the_o divine_a world_n the_o servantship_n from_o the_o angelical_a and_o the_o creatureship_n from_o the_o elementary_a world_n further_n love_n surpass_v all_o mystery_n all_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n be_v no_o man_n be_v able_a to_o search_v out_o the_o mystery_n of_o this_o depth_n or_o abyss_n yea_o no_o man_n can_v right_o believe_v that_o god_n so_o love_v sinner_n unless_o he_o find_v in_o himself_o the_o upright_a love_n for_o without_o love_n all_o be_v in_o vain_a but_o through_o love_n all_o thing_n be_v sanctify_v and_o without_o it_o nothing_o be_v profitable_a whosoever_o therefore_o have_v this_o love_n dwell_v in_o himself_o he_o have_v right_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o can_v search_v and_o know_v all_o thing_n even_o above_o angel_n for_o he_o can_v see_v clear_o and_o evident_o how_o god_n love_v the_o fall_v man_n and_o not_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o devil_n o_o what_o a_o deep_a mystery_n be_v this_o which_o with_o no_o tongue_n can_v be_v express_v unless_o a_o man_n true_o have_v know_v mysterium_fw-la magnum_fw-la creationis_fw-la the_o great_a mystery_n of_o creation_n which_o therefore_o be_v so_o unknown_a to_o man_n because_o they_o know_v nothing_o of_o the_o threefold_a world_n wherein_o the_o key_n of_o david_n be_v comprise_v namely_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n of_o those_o three_o that_o bear_v witness_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n now_o if_o we_o intend_v to_o edify_v one_o another_o in_o love_n than_o we_o must_v first_o know_v the_o love_n speak_v of_o it_o and_o search_v for_o it_o many_o be_v ready_a enough_o to_o talk_v of_o love_n but_o what_o love_n proper_o be_v in_o its_o self_n thereof_o they_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a yea_o they_o abhor_v it_o when_o a_o man_n right_o name_v it_o and_o yet_o fierce_a they_o grow_v when_o a_o man_n with_o truth_n will_v lead_v they_o to_o it_o thus_o far_o they_o be_v go_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o his_o wisdom_n that_o they_o carry_v nothing_o about_o they_o but_o the_o lust_n of_o wrath_n wherefore_o god_n can_v neither_o have_v his_o mansion_n and_o habitation_n by_o they_o but_o they_o abide_v in_o death_n for_o love_n only_o have_v all_o promise_n in_o it_o &_o be_v profitable_a to_o all_o thing_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o godliness_n and_o by_o it_o all_o thing_n be_v clean_a unto_o the_o clean_a good_a work_n also_o by_o love_n obtain_v the_o promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n thus_o by_o love_n a_o man_n both_o pray_v fa_v and_o eat_v aright_o otherwise_o all_o be_v in_o vain_a though_o a_o man_n suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v burn_v chap._n vii_o wherein_o do_v the_o daily_a practice_n of_o love_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n true_o consist_v see_v love_n be_v a_o thing_n of_o so_o great_a consequence_n that_o the_o new_a creature_n in_o man_n consist_v in_o it_o therefore_o have_v christ_n so_o earnest_o command_v we_o the_o serious_a and_o daily_a practice_n of_o it_o in_o so_o much_o that_o we_o shall_v love_v our_o very_a enemy_n for_o therein_o perfection_n consist_v it_o be_v necessary_a therefore_o that_o we_o lay_v hold_v on_o love_n even_o enter_v into_o it_o if_o we_o mean_v to_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n and_o obtain_v everlasting_a happiness_n it_o be_v not_o in_o man_n own_o free_a will_n to_o choose_v whether_o he_o will_v do_v it_o or_o no_o but_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n for_o it_o if_o we_o will_v be_v call_v christian_n in_o truth_n and_o moreover_o what_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v better_a graceful_a i_o pray_v then_o to_o grow_v and_o increase_v in_o this_o love_n towards_o all_o man_n which_o love_n must_v be_v without_o any_o respect_n of_o person_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o concern_v the_o common_a love_n if_o we_o therefore_o be_v find_v to_o be_v in_o this_o love_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o we_o shall_v despise_v judge_v or_o condemn_v one_o another_o much_o less_o envy_n persecute_v destroy_v and_o kill_v one_o another_o for_o we_o have_v all_o of_o we_o one_o father_n and_o one_o and_o the_o same_o god_n have_v create_v we_o all_o wherefore_o then_o shall_v we_o despise_v one_o another_o transgress_v the_o covenant_n of_o our_o father_n which_o be_v love_n therefore_o i_o can_v see_v how_o he_o that_o call_v himself_o of_o paul_n shall_v be_v better_o than_o he_o that_o call_v himself_o of_o apollo_n and_o cephas_n be_v not_o they_o all_o christian_n and_o believe_v in_o christ_n therefore_o they_o among_o themselves_o be_v compare_v one_o with_o another_o be_v humane_a glory_v in_o man_n they_o be_v carnal_a be_v they_o do_v not_o judge_n according_a to_o the_o spirit_n but_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n they_o be_v his_o child_n as_o the_o very_a apostle_n strong_a and_o spiritual_a man_n themselves_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n none_o be_v better_a than_o another_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n for_o as_o it_o be_v among_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n viz._n the_o foot_n can_v see_v the_o eye_n do_v neither_o be_v they_o so_o clear_a and_o pure_a as_o the_o eye_n be_v but_o be_v not_o they_o for_o all_o this_o member_n of_o the_o body_n the_o foot_n have_v no_o such_o light_n perspection_n and_o discern_a faculty_n as_o the_o eye_n have_v yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o eye_n do_v not_o despise_v the_o foot_n for_o they_o be_v fellow-member_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o body_n they_o be_v not_o envious_a one_o against_o the_o other_o though_o the_o foot_n now_o and_o then_o shall_v be_v unsavoury_a for_o god_n almighty_n have_v so_o order_v and_o dispose_v the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n that_o one_o shall_v not_o exalt_v and_o raise_v itself_o up_o against_o the_o other_o see_v the_o foot_n be_v not_o only_a member_n of_o the_o body_n but_o fellow-member_n with_o the_o eye_n and_o how_o can_v the_o eye_n be_v exalt_v and_o see_v in_o its_o state_n and_o beauty_n if_o it_o be_v not_o raise_v up_o and_o support_v up_o and_o support_v by_o the_o foot_n be_v it_o not_o so_o that_o one_o member_n must_v praise_v and_o set_v forth_o the_o other_o the_o foot_n likewise_o can_v despise_v the_o eye_n much_o less_o judge_n and_o censure_v they_o for_o they_o can_v see_v nor_o go_v aright_o without_o the_o eye_n and_o if_o the_o eye_n do_v not_o lead_v and_o guide_v they_o they_o will_v soon_o go_v into_o the_o ditch_n and_o together_o with_o they_o the_o whole_a body_n also_o therefore_o as_o the_o foot_n do_v see_v by_o the_o eye_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v not_o eye_n so_o likewise_o the_o eye_n go_v by_o the_o foot_n though_o they_o themselves_o be_v not_o foot_n but_o eye_n now_o as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n so_o it_o be_v with_o christian_n for_o as_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n be_v different_a yet_o not_o disagree_v nor_o divide_v otherwise_o the_o whole_a body_n will_v go_v to_o ruin_v so_o also_o love_v christian_n i_o say_v the_o love_a christian_n who_o be_v endue_v with_o love_n and_o do_v love_v another_o whether_o he_o be_v friend_n or_o foe_n jew_n or_o turk_n heathen_a or_o christian_n for_o this_o we_o owe_v one_o to_o another_o as_o the_o scripture_n exhort_v we_o say_v owe_v no_o man_n any_o thing_n but_o to_o love_v one_o another_o thus_o by_o love_n all_o christian_n be_v right_o and_o easy_o know_v though_o according_a to_o the_o outward_a letter_n they_o be_v heathen_n jew_n and_o turk_n and_o in_o humane_a censure_n and_o opinion_n infidel_n as_o know_v nothing_o of_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o literal_a faith_n yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v christian_n in_o deed_n and_o in_o truth_n even_o because_o they_o love_v their_o neighbour_n and_o do_v good_a to_o he_o and_o thus_o it_o appear_v plain_o what_o a_o christian_a be_v what_o it_o be_v that_o make_v a_o christian_n or_o whereby_o a_o man_n come_v to_o be_v a_o christian_n be_v and_o abide_v so_o according_a to_o christ_n own_o word_n and_o say_n viz._n hereby_o it_o shall_v be_v know_v that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o love_v one_o another_o in_o a_o word_n this_o be_v both_o the_o old_a and_o new_a commandment_n on_o which_o both_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n even_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n depend_v by_o which_o all_o heathen_n jew_n turk_n and_o all_o that_o be_v not_o christian_n shall_v
