it_o be_v requisite_a to_o say_v something_o by_o way_n of_o explication_n to_o this_o truth_n and_o then_o by_o way_n of_o application_n whosoever_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d every_o one_o

it_o be_v not_o lawful_a proper_o and_o indeed_o to_o hate_v a_o man_n self_n or_o his_o relation_n though_o he_o may_v gain_v heaven_n thereby_o observe_v luke_n the_o evangelist_n say_v cap._n 14.26_o if_o a_o man_n hate_v not_o brethren_n he_o can_v be_v christ_n disciple_n and_o john_n the_o apostle_n affirm_v whosoever_o hate_v his_o brother_n be_v a_o murderer_n so_o that_o we_o must_v take_v the_o term_n hate_n in_o some_o place_n to_o signify_v a_o less_o degree_n of_o love_n so_o in_o luke_n he_o that_o love_v not_o christ_n more_o than_o himself_o more_o than_o his_o wife_n or_o child_n more_o than_o brethren_n or_o sister_n can_v be_v my_o disciple_n as_o suppose_v a_o man_n must_v either_o forsake_v jesus_n christ_n or_o else_o his_o natural_a and_o near_a relation_n this_o for_o sake_z of_o they_o and_o cleave_v to_o christ_n the_o scripture_n express_v by_o hate_v of_o they_o not_o that_o man_n hate_v or_o may_v lawful_o hate_v their_o friend_n but_o they_o love_v they_o less_o than_o they_o love_v the_o lord_n christ_n so_o matth._n 10.37_o he_o that_o love_v father_n or_o mother_n more_o than_o i_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o i_o and_o he_o that_o love_v son_n or_o daughter_n more_o than_o i_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o i_o 2._o hate_v be_v take_v for_o a_o very_a strong_a disrespect_n and_o a_o mighty_a implacable_a disaffection_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o one_o man_n towards_o another_o man_n person_n insomuch_o that_o a_o man_n can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o say_v well_o of_o or_o do_v good_a unto_o another_o but_o he_o can_v find_v in_o his_o
