affectionate_a for_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o love_n to_o show_v itself_o most_o love_a when_o it_o be_v a_o leave_v so_o have_v i_o see_v two_o friend_n that_o have_v keep_v their_o

this_o week_n free_a for_o meditation_n meditation_n for_o tuesday_n rise_v up_o with_o thy_o saviour_n o_o my_o soul_n and_o put_v on_o he_o for_o thy_o garment_n that_o thou_o may_v follow_v back_o this_o morning_n to_o jerusalem_n cleave_v to_o he_o also_o as_o he_o go_v and_o listen_v what_o he_o say_v for_o this_o be_v a_o day_n in_o which_o the_o double_a door_n of_o his_o lip_n be_v open_a

of_o judge_n it_o may_v be_v be_v put_v among_o those_o wise_a tree_n that_o refuse_v the_o kingdom_n over_o the_o other_o but_o there_o be_v no_o wisdom_n nor_o understanding_n nor_o counsel_n against_o the_o lord_n if_o christ_n command_v the_o poor_a figtree_n must_v wither_v have_v it_o never_o so_o well_o provide_v against_o weather_n in_o his_o late_a and_o deliberate_a bud_n this_o be_v the_o very_a use_n that_o our_o saviour_n make_v of_o this_o accident_n for_o hence_o he_o take_v occasion_n to_o show_v his_o disciple_n what_o miracle_n their_o faith_n shall_v work_v if_o it_o be_v true_a and_o settle_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o only_o have_v tree_n but_o the_o earth_n and_o sea_n obedient_a to_o it_o so_o that_o mountain_n shall_v remove_v and_o the_o sea_n stand_v still_o at_o their_o faith_n be_v it_o not_o waver_v this_o be_v much_o but_o the_o next_o privilege_n be_v great_a namely_o that_o they_o shall_v obtain_v of_o god_n whatsoever_o they_o ask_v in_o christ_n name_n observe_v but_o one_o condition_n that_o be_v to_o forgive_v as_o they_o will_v be_v forgive_v i_o think_v this_o be_v something_o like_o man_n state_n in_o his_o innocency_n who_o have_v but_o one_o condition_n to_o observe_v to_o keep_v himself_o happy_a even_o as_o mankind_n here_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o disciple_n have_v but_o one_o rule_n prescribe_v to_o restore_v it_o to_o god_n favour_n by_o forgiveness_n that_o be_v to_o forgive_v other_o who_o repent_v towards_o they_o mankind_n i_o say_v not_o the_o disciple_n alone_o for_o in_o other_o place_n our_o saviour_n make_v both_o the_o duty_n and_o condition_n general_a therefore_o look_v to_o thy_o faith_n whosoever_o thou_o be_v for_o thou_o be_v warn_v as_o well_o as_o the_o disciple_n and_o if_o thou_o look_v thy_o prayer_n shall_v find_v entrance_n by_o it_o to_o obtain_v forgiveness_n in_o christ_n believe_v this_o one_o thing_n ere_o thou_o begin_v to_o pray_v that_o faith_n be_v not_o faith_n unless_o love_n go_v with_o it_o thou_o must_v forgive_v therefore_o and_o that_o from_o the_o bottom_n of_o thy_o heart_n thy_o repentant_a brother_n which_o be_v a_o work_n of_o love_n or_o else_o thou_o can_v never_o be_v forgive_v with_o the_o end_n of_o this_o doctrine_n we_o be_v come_v now_o with_o our_o saviour_n into_o jerusalem_n and_o no_o soon_o there_o but_o enter_v into_o the_o temple_n which_o to_o this_o purpose_n lay_v next_o the_o gate_n that_o lead_v to_o bethanle_n that_o christ_n may_v have_v the_o ready_a entrance_n into_o his_o own_o house_n there_o he_o have_v not_o be_v long_o a_o teach_n say_v s._n matthew_n and_o that_o as_o he_o be_v late-walking_a say_v s._n mark_v because_o he_o will_v loose_v no_o time_n but_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o scribe_n and_o elder_n of_o the_o people_n all_o man_n of_o authority_n and_o therefore_o the_o pharisy_n who_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o monk_n be_v not_o with_o they_o be_v upon_o he_o to_o know_v his_o authority_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o high_a treason_n if_o they_o will_v have_v consider_v it_o for_o they_o to_o call_v he_o to_o account_v for_o his_o authority_n from_o who_o they_o hold_v they_o for_o if_o they_o be_v high_a priest_n he_o be_v their_o king_n if_o they_o be_v scribe_n he_o be_v their_o high_a priest_n if_o they_o be_v elder_n he_o be_v from_o everlasting_a for_o this_o cause_n he_o please_v not_o to_o answer_v they_o direct_o but_o by_o another_o question_n touch_v the_o baptism_n of_o john_n whether_o it_o be_v from_o heaven_n or_o of_o man_n this_o be_v a_o question_n that_o they_o be_v sure_a to_o be_v take_v in_o whatsoever_o they_o answer_v for_o if_o the_o say_v it_o be_v of_o man_n they_o fear_v the_o people_n lest_o they_o shall_v stone_n they_o because_o all_o man_n hold_v john_n for_o a_o prophet_n if_o they_o say_v from_o heaven_n they_o condemn_v themselves_o for_o not_o believe_v john_n nor_o christ_n neither_o who_o john_n have_v teach_v and_o point_v at_o when_o he_o say_v behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n and_o again_o when_o he_o say_v this_o be_v he_o who_o come_v after_o i_o but_o be_v great_a than_o i_o who_o shoe_n latchet_n i_o be_o not_o worthy_a to_o unloose_v therefore_o when_o they_o will_v not_o speak_v truth_n for_o shame_v and_o dare_v not_o speak_v falsehood_n for_o endanger_v themselves_o they_o unfit_o for_o man_n of_o place_n and_o learning_n put_v the_o question_n off_o with_o we_o can_v tell_v and_o because_o they_o will_v not_o confess_v the_o truth_n that_o they_o know_v neither_o therefore_o will_v our_o saviour_n instruct_v they_o who_o be_v already_o inform_v yet_o contrary_a to_o their_o conscience_n deny_v to_o know_v that_o which_o they_o know_v well_o enough_o for_o they_o have_v evidence_n enough_o not_o only_o to_o teach_v but_o enforce_v upon_o they_o also_o that_o our_o lord_n authority_n can_v not_o but_o be_v from_o god_n but_o pride_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o acknowledge_v he_o for_o this_o cause_n he_o who_o resist_v the_o proud_a and_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a care_v not_o to_o give_v grace_n to_o they_o who_o be_v not_o humble_a enough_o to_o stoop_v to_o his_o authority_n but_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n even_o till_o they_o come_v to_o that_o height_n of_o malice_n as_o to_o crucify_v he_o who_o seek_v their_o salvation_n this_o teach_v we_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o we_o oppose_v ourselves_o to_o the_o know_a truth_n lest_o we_o be_v leave_v to_o ourselves_o as_o these_o high_a priest_n scribe_n &_o elder_n be_v to_o
