Deuided so in any land If Sathan cast out Sathan sure Or I by Beelzebub do so His kingdome cannot long endure One thing I aske you and no mo By whom do your sonnes cast them out They shall you iudge in this no doubt If through God cast out the same Then is his kingdome come this day If one man to a strong man came To spoile his house and runne away Can he his purpose bring to passe Ere he be bound that owner was But I by force gaue him the foyle Whose helpe you say I daily vse The more for you that I do toyle The more you still do me abuse He that on my side is not he Against me fully sure must be Blasphemie Each sinne and so each blasphemy Shall be forgiuen men I say If they repent it hartely And for remission do pray Except against the holy Ghost Of all this sinne offendeth most The sinne against the sonne of man Which oftentimes doth hap and chance Both francke and free remit I can For it may come of ignorance The works Gods spirit works are such That they cannot be hidden much Take heed ye do not then offend Or sinne against the holy Ghost God will not sure world without end Forgiue that sinne he hates it most The tree and fruit make good I say Or make both ●it to cast away As by the fruit we know the tree So by your wordes ye knowen are Oh vipers you that euill be Your speaches do your workes declare The hart it storeth good or ill Whereof the mouth doth sauour still Both good men and the euill show What treasure they haue hid in hart At the last iudgement you shall know How well or ill you plaide your part Vaine talke who so doth here affoord Shall answer for each idle word Christ denied the Iewes any signe sauing onely the signe of Ionas The Scribes and Pharisies withall Came tempting Christ and sought a signe As if on sight thereof they all From former faults would then decline But Christ that knew the inward mind With words they could not so make blind Christ answered and said againe Thou wicked generation Adulterous and very vaine Though signes thou doest depend vpon No signe shall geuen be to thee But that of Ionas thou shalt see As three dayes and three nights he was Within the whale all couered So shortly it will come to passe I shall in earth be buried Three dayes and three nights verely In graue the sonne of man shall lye Christ argued the Iewes of impenitencie The men of Niniuie shall rise With these and shall condemne them to They Ionas words did not despise But did repent as you should do One greater then Ionas is here Yet small repentance doth appeare The Queene of Saba she shall rise In Iudgement with these men also And them she shall condemne likewise That so farre from her home would go To heare king Salomon I say His greater yet you heare this day Christ prnounced an heauie sentence against such as reuolt from the truth receiued They which are once deliuered From vncleane spirits free and well Are after iustly punished If in them they againe do dwell Their last end sure farre worse shalbe Then was the first take this of me The vncleane spirit places dry Doth walke throughout seeking a rest Where faith where hope where charitie Is setled sure within mans brest It is so dried with Gods grace That deuils haue there no resting place Then he returneth home againe Into the house from whence he went For all this while he walkt in vaine And missed still of his intent This house he findeth swept within Cleane voide of vertue deckt with sinne Then taketh he seauen spirits more As ill as he in euery thing And dwels where he did dwell before His end is worse then beginning So shall it with this people be They mend not for all that they see This spirit is the deuill indeed His house is man where he doth dwell The drie place where he cannot speed Mans heart it is heat by God well With godly zeale and hate of sinne He rests not there though he come in Christ shewed who his mother sisters and brethren are While Christ spake to the company His mother and his brethren were Without desiring earnestly To talke with him as may appeare Then one of them that was there came And told our sauiour of the same But he preferring farre before The worke that he then had in hand Encreasing daily more and more He said to such as there did stand My mother and brethren be they That do my doctrine still obey My mother whom I loue so well My brethren whom I like also Are these and they marke what I tell For brother and sister shall go My friends they are who so do still Performe and keepe my fathers will The state of the kingdome of God set forth by seauen parables and first of the seed By parables Christ taught men plaine The state nature and worthinesse Of Gods word he did not disdaine To shew alwaies his readinesse His chosen in all things he may To helpe and winne them eu'ry way Christ though of late he had bene let And interrupted by his friends His office he did not forget For their great fault he made amends To the sea side from thence he went To preach againe with like intent And the same place was the sea side That by Genezaret doth lie Where he sat downe for to abide But preased on with company He tooke a ship wherein he sate And taught them as he had done late The people standing on the shore With diligence did giue him eare The multitude encreasing more The more of him did stand in feare Whose words and workes they all did see In eu'ry thing so well agree Behold said Christ a sower went To sowe his seed but some seed fell Farre otherwise then he had meant By the way side which could not well Yeeld fruite the fowle without delay Deuour'd them all so cleane away Some fell on stonie ground also Where they of earth had little store They sprung the rather there but lo The sunne rose vp and parcht them sore And so for lack of roote I say Anon they witherd all away Among the thornes some other fell Which springing vp were choakt withall Some fell in good ground and did well The same brought fruite where they did fall One corne an hundreth fold or moe Some sixtie some thirty also He that hath eares to heare may heare For herein the condition Of Gods word may to thee appeare The rule of thy saluation Three sorts decayed all you see The fourth yeelds onely fruite to me Then his disciples askt him why By parables he taught them then To you said Christ this verely Giu'n is to know not to those men The secrets of Gods kingdome ye Shall learne
