be_v to_o gather_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o send_v in_o haste_n unto_o we_o neither_o yet_o that_o god_n determine_v in_o a_o minute_n of_o time_n to_o send_v he_o unto_o we_o for_o our_o

sort_n as_o that_o the_o ancient_a father_n be_v build_v uqpon_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o in_o he_o be_v their_o hope_n and_o salvation_n to_o be_v short_a that_o be_v a_o help_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v contemn_v but_o when_o we_o shall_v compare_v the_o shadow_n with_o the_o body_n we_o shall_v see_v that_o our_o redemption_n be_v more_o to_o be_v wish_v than_o the_o state_n of_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o we_o see_v why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o bless_a be_v the_o eye_n which_o see_v that_o that_o the_o disciple_n have_v see_v for_o many_o king_n and_o

with_o a_o assure_a confidence_n that_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v accomplish_v in_o time_n convenient_a as_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v see_v when_o as_o jacob_n in_o pass_v out_o of_o this_o life_n say_v i_o shall_v see_v thy_o save_a health_n o_o lord_n 49.18_o gen._n 49.18_o and_o will_v put_v my_o confidence_n therein_o now_o then_o when_o we_o shall_v make_v such_o comparison_n we_o have_v wherewithal_o mighty_o to_o be_v strengthen_v and_o to_o be_v angry_a at_o whatsoever_o the_o devil_n may_v thrust_v in_o to_o withdraw_v we_o from_o the_o purity_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o stir_v up_o to_o embrace_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n see_v that_o he_o have_v bring_v the_o full_a and_o perfect_a truth_n of_o that_o which_o be_v figure_v in_o the_o law_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o we_o be_v to_o benefit_n ourselves_o by_o this_o place_n of_o scripture_n as_o touch_v melchisedech_n his_o dwell_a place_n it_o be_v most_o like_a to_o be_v

that_o be_v the_o city_n wherein_o melchisedech_n have_v be_v and_o there_o also_o where_o jesus_n christ_n exercise_v his_o office_n of_o priesthood_n not_o only_a when_o he_o preach_v the_o gospel_n but_o also_o when_o he_o be_v crucify_v for_o we_o and_o offer_v up_o a_o holy_a oblation_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n to_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o he_o for_o ever_o and_o to_o cleanse_v we_o of_o all_o our_o sin_n let_v we_o now_o prostrate_v ourselves_o before_o the_o majestic_a of_o our_o good_a god_n in_o acknowledge_v our_o offence_n beseech_v he_o to_o receive_v we_o to_o his_o mercy_n and_o see_v that_o we_o be_v condemn_v as_o of_o ourselves_o that_o we_o may_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o redeemer_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o curse_n in_o which_o we_o shall_v be_v plunge_v if_o it_o be_v not_o that_o he_o have_v redeem_v we_o by_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o that_o as_o he_o have_v stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o pull_v we_o unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o will_v more_v and_o more_o confirm_v we_o in_o such_o perseverance_n of_o faith_n as_o that_o we_o may_v cleave_v unto_o to_o he_o &_o never_o be_v withdraw_v from_o he_o by_o any_o temptation_n of_o this_o world_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v rathet_n fight_v against_o all_o the_o alarm_n wherewith_o satan_n shall_v set_v upon_o we_o until_o such_o time_n as_o we_o do_v come_v unto_o that_o everlasting_a kingdom_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o we_o before_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o which_o be_v so_o dear_o purchase_v for_o us._n that_o

begin_v to_o declare_v that_o melchisedech_n of_o who_o mention_n be_v here_o make_v be_v a_o figure_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v the_o more_o attentive_o hearken_v unto_o this_o doctrine_n we_o be_v to_o remember_v that_o which_o yesterday_o be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o that_o be_v that_o god_n swear_v by_o a_o solemn_a oath_n that_o he_o that_o shall_v be_v king_n over_o the_o people_n shall_v also_o be_v a_o priest_n now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n be_v very_o spare_v and_o careful_a of_o his_o name_n and_o cast_v it_o not_o out_o at_o all_o adventure_n for_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v it_o in_o all_o reverend_a regard_n &_o not_o take_v it_o but_o upon_o necessity_n &_o to_o such_o a_o use_n as_o be_v worthy_a the_o holiness_n thereof_o and_o for_o his_o part_n also_o give_v we_o a_o example_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o conclude_v that_o this_o be_v a_o point_n of_o great_a importance_n and_o marvelous_a profitable_a for_o we_o to_o know_v that_o he_o which_o shall_v be_v the_o redeemer_n of_o the_o people_n shall_v also_o have_v the_o title_n both_o of_o a_o king_n &_o a_o priest_n and_o in_o deed_n if_o we_o shall_v separate_v the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o the_o faith_n that_o we_o have_v in_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v very_o weak_a and_o shall_v have_v no_o certain_a nor_o firm_a foundation_n for_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n requisite_a to_o our_o salvation_n the_o one_o be_v that_o god_n accept_v we_o as_o rightuous_a and_o vow_v we_o for_o his_o child_n the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o may_v be_v guide_v by_o his_o hand_n and_o maintain_v and_o warrant_v by_o his_o invincible_a power_n if_o we_o shall_v take_v but_o one_o of_o these_o point_n we_o shall_v understand_v it_o but_o by_o half_n and_o mark_v how_o put_v the_o case_n that_o god_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o will_v not_o impute_v unto_o we_o our_o sin_n yet_o if_o the_o devil_n have_v power_n over_o we_o and_o we_o leave_v as_o a_o prey_n unto_o all_o the_o assault_n wherewith_o he_o shall_v assail_v we_o how_o can_v it_o otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o we_o must_v be_v most_o miserable_a castaway_n on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o god_n shall_v display_v his_o power_n for_o our_o defence_n and_o yet_o we_o not_o reconcile_v unto_o he_o and_o so_o not_o repute_v and_o hold_v to_o be_v righteous_a and_o just_a no_o doubt_n of_o it_o but_o that_o we_o must_v needs_o still_o come_v to_o reckon_n and_o then_o woe_n unto_o we_o when_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_v without_o mercy_n but_o we_o know_v that_o all_o our_o righteousness_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o god_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o have_v bury_v all_o our_o offence_n and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v both_o a_o king_n and_o a_o priest_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v on_o the_o one_o side_n make_v a_o atonement_n between_o god_n and_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v bold_o come_v when_o as_o we_o be_v drive_v to_o call_v upon_o he_o for_o aid_n and_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o vow_v we_o for_o his_o child_n and_o all_o this_o we_o have_v by_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o in_o that_o he_o shed_v his_o blood_n it_o be_v to_o to_o wash_v &_o cleanse_v we_o of_o all_o our_o spot_n he_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o satisfaction_n on_o so_o that_o we_o thereby_o be_v discharge_v of_o a_o our_o debt_n &_o the_o obligation_n that_o be_v against_o our_o salvation_n be_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v to_o the_o collossian_o break_a &_o cancel_v thus_o we_o
abominable_a hellish_a mass_n of_o they_o they_o be_v so_o mad_a withal_o as_o that_o to_o they_o it_o be_v a_o far_o great_a offence_n once_o to_o swear_v by_o that_o idol_n the_o mass_n then_o to_o blaspheme_v the_o name_n of_o god_n a_o hundred_o time_n thus_o than_o we_o see_v that_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v most_o hellish_a and_o as_o for_o the_o jew_n they_o do_v utter_o renounce_v our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n we_o have_v now_o already_o show_v that_o the_o son_n can_v be_v separate_v from_o the_o father_n and_o have_v reject_v he_o they_o have_v shut_v themselves_o clean_o out_o of_o the_o door_n and_o forsake_v the_o principal_a covenant_n which_o god_n make_v with_o they_o to_o wit_n because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o salvation_n which_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n bring_v with_o he_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o they_o abuse_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o every_o condition_n and_o so_o have_v it_o be_v even_o from_o abram_n his_o time_n we_o see_v here_o then_o why_o he_o call_v he_o the_o eternal_a and_o soon_o alter_v the_o most_o high_a god_n because_o he_o will_v discern_v he_o from_o the_o idol_n of_o the_o heathen_a for_o the_o very_a heathen_a right_n well_o know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o most_o high_a and_o excellent_a heavenly_a nature_n but_o yet_o they_o have_v ever_o a_o desire_n to_o have_v a_o warren_n of_o petty_a god_n after_o their_o own_o will_n &_o pleasure_n abram_n be_v far_o from_o that_o &_o say_v that_o there_o be_v none_o but_o the_o eternal_a which_o be_v the_o most_o high_a god_n and_o withal_o he_o add_v possessor_n of_o heaven_n &_o earth_n to_o show_v that_o god_n be_v not_o in_o heaven_n as_o fantastical_a head_n imagine_v as_o to_o say_v that_o he_o sit_v there_o only_o to_o behold_v that_o which_o be_v do_v in_o the_o world_n &_o content_v himself_o that_o he_o once_o make_v all_o thing_n &_o now_o let_v we_o alone_o scip_v &_o leap_v here_o below_o up_o &_o down_o like_o frog_n but_o abram_n show_v that_o he_o have_v not_o so_o blockish_a a_o opinion_n of_o his_o majesty_n but_o attribute_v unto_o he_o a_o infinite_a power_n that_o spread_v itself_o all_o over_o both_o henen_fw-la &_o earth_n and_o this_o be_v do_v to_o make_v we_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n and_o to_o advertise_v we_o that_o we_o be_v always_o before_o his_o eye_n &_o that_o both_o our_o wit_n &_o very_a thought_n shall_v come_v in_o a_o reckon_n before_o he_o for_o god_n be_v not_o the_o possessor_n of_o heaven_n &_o earth_n to_o eat_v &_o feed_v &_o to_o do_v nothing_o else_o he_o be_v not_o possessor_n of_o they_o to_o make_v nothing_o but_o dumb_a show_n with_o they_o but_o content_v himself_o also_o with_o his_o alone_a &_o infinite_a majesty_n have_v in_o himself_o all_o blessedness_n and_o although_o he_o have_v never_o create_v any_o thing_n yet_o have_v he_o be_v thereby_o no_o whit_n either_o lessen_v nor_o increase_v and_o therefore_o when_o he_o be_v thus_o call_v it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o have_v all_o thing_n in_o subjection_n and_o that_o we_o must_v all_o answer_n before_o he_o and_o that_o he_o so_o rule_v the_o world_n as_o that_o nothing_o be_v hide_v from_o he_o and_o that_o his_o office_n be_v so_o to_o sound_v the_o thought_n and_o to_o examine_v all_o our_o word_n and_o deed_n as_o that_o be_v possessor_n both_o of_o heaven_n &_o earth_n he_o be_v also_o with_o all_o our_o lord_n and_o judge_n thus_o we_o see_v why_o this_o title_n be_v impose_v upon_o he_o because_o we_o may_v walk_v here_o as_o before_o his_o majesty_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o wise_a catch_n of_o it_o to_o hunt_v after_o secret_a corner_n see_v that_o all_o thing_n shall_v come_v to_o light_v and_o if_o so_o be_v we_o do_v think_v at_o this_o day_n to_o deceive_v he_o with_o our_o cunning_a shift_n yet_o will_v it_o in_o the_o end_n light_n all_o upon_o our_o own_o head_n again_o when_o as_o god_n be_v name_v

further_o for_o this_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n and_o also_o where_o we_o have_v heretofore_o speak_v of_o dust_n some_o man_n in_o a_o speculative_a sort_n have_v think_v the_o

behold_v his_o power_n &_o not_o by_o his_o own_o discourse_n &_o reason_n judge_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o promise_n which_o in_o the_o natural_a conceit_n of_o man_n be_v incredible_a for_o

infinite_a power_n of_o god_n to_o behold_v this_o infinite_a multitude_n of_o star_n of_o heaven_n create_v in_o a_o moment_n and_o we_o see_v also_o in_o the_o psalm_n why_o this_o miracle_n be_v

we_o see_v that_o the_o heavenly_a host_n be_v create_v in_o a_o minute_n and_o be_v continual_o obedient_a unto_o his_o majesty_n we_o see_v that_o all_o the_o star_n keep_v their_o due_a course_n

have_v promise_v but_o because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o can_v not_o keep_v himself_o within_o such_o compass_n but_o that_o he_o will_v needs_o ask_v the_o question_n how_o it_o can_v be_v

take_v my_o word_n for_o it_o this_o then_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o faith_n to_o have_v all_o our_o sense_n subject_a unto_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o believe_v his_o truth_n our_o ear_n also_o must_v be_v open_a and_o attentive_a to_o receive_v whatsoever_o he_o speak_v unto_o we_o and_o that_o when_o he_o have_v once_o say_v the_o word_n conclude_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o but_o which_o way_n can_v that_o be_v o_o we_o be_v not_o to_o reason_v that_o neither_o be_v it_o in_o our_o disposition_n but_o we_o must_v leave_v it_o unto_o the_o counsel_n and_o will_n of_o god_n as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v this_o then_o be_v the_o honour_n winch_v we_o must_v do_v unto_o god_n even_o to_o believe_v his_o holy_a word_n more_o over_o we_o be_v still_o to_o observe_v that_o which_o have_v heretofore_o be_v speak_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n simple_o give_v the_o land_n of_o chanaan_n unto_o his_o servant_n abraham_n for_o a_o pawn_n to_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v not_o muse_v to_o himself_o nor_o trouble_v his_o head_n about_o it_o for_o than_o have_v abraham_n have_v but_o a_o cold_a pull_n if_o he_o have_v have_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o land_n but_o without_o doubt_n he_o be_v lead_v by_o another_o spirit_n which_o be_v he_o see_v the_o very_a day_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n as_o in_o the_o gospel_n according_a to_o john_n it_o be_v write_v and_o beside_o he_o confess_v himself_o to_o be_v but_o a_o pylgrime_n here_o in_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o look_v for_o his_o inheritance_n elsewhere_o and_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o this_o land_n be_v give_v he_o for_o to_o inherit_v that_o be_v not_o the_o mark_n which_o he_o shoot_v at_o his_o mind_n be_v not_o set_v thereon_o but_o have_v a_o further_a reach_n for_o by_o reason_n as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v that_o he_o forsake_v his_o native_a country_n and_o leave_v it_o to_o live_v in_o a_o strange_a and_o a_o unknowen_a place_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o his_o mind_n be_v altogether_o occupy_v about_o the_o heavenly_a inheritance_n so_o then_o we_o be_v here_o to_o note_v that_o although_o the_o land_n of_o chanaan_n be_v here_o call_v his_o inheritance_n as_o also_o god_n house_n and_o rest_a place_n yet_o be_v it_o but_o as_o a_o pawn_n or_o to_o speak_v more_o proper_o but_o as_o a_o earnest_a penny_n for_o a_o pawn_n import_v as_o much_o at_o the_o least_o as_o the_o full_a worth_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o be_v assure_v of_o but_o a_o earnest_a penny_n be_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v nothing_o and_o to_o give_v a_o penny_n as_o we_o call_v it_o unto_o god_n for_o a_o bargain_n worth_a a_o hundred_o thousand_o crown_n and_o more_o be_v nothing_o for_o of_o what_o worth_n be_v that_o piece_n which_o we_o give_v forsooth_o of_o no_o value_n now_o can_v a_o potte●●_n or_o galen_v of_o wine_n be_v worth_a a_o great_a possession_n or_o land_n that_o be_v able_a to_o enrich_v three_o or_o foureman_n and_o yet_o be_v as_o be_v may_v this_o earnest_a penny_n be_v destine_v unto_o such_o a_o use_n and_o therefore_o this_o land_n of_o chanaan_n be_v the_o inheritance_n of_o all_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n and_o of_o as_o many_o as_o have_v descend_v of_o his_o line_n but_o yet_o so_o as_o that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o earnest_a penny_n for_o heaven_n insomuch_o that_o the_o very_a faithful_a look_v not_o so_o much_o unto_o that_o neither_o yet_o set_v so_o their_o mind_n on_o it_o but_o settle_v their_o cogitation_n &_o thought_n a_o great_a deal_n high_o we_o see_v then_o whether_o god_n mean_v to_o call_v abram_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v that_o he_o do_v he_o no_o wrong_n in_o leave_v he_o to_o languish_v because_o he_o be_v sure_a that_o the_o promise_n shall_v be_v perform_v &_o therefore_o not_o to_o stand_v upon_o his_o own_o wit_n and_o why_o so_o because_o he_o be_v to_o look_v unto_o he_o that_o speak_v the_o word_n who_o be_v the_o unchangeable_a god_n now_o by_o reason_n that_o we_o ourselves_o be_v so_o changeable_a as_o that_o our_o mind_n alter_v every_o minute_n we_o therefore_o grieve_v and_o vex_v when_o we_o see_v that_o god_n perform_v not_o that_o at_o the_o very_a first_o which_o he_o have_v promise_v us._n and_o because_o we_o see_v our_o life_n to_o be_v so_o short_a and_o the_o time_n we_o have_v to_o live_v to_o be_v but_o as_o a_o shadow_n which_o fleet_v sudden_o away_o we_o think_v that_o god_n will_v never_o come_v time_n enough_o wherefore_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o correct_v this_o fault_n by_o these_o word_n that_o we_o hear_v here_o to_o be_v speak_v to_o abram_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n which_o change_v not_o and_o beside_o we_o hear_v what_o be_v say_v in_o other_o place_n 4.8_o the_o song_n of_o moses_n psal_n 90.4_o 2._o pet._n 4.8_o that_o a_o thousand_o year_n be_v but_o as_o one_o day_n with_o he_o and_o saint_n peter_n also_o say_v that_o in_o the_o last_o day_n there_o shall_v come_v mocker_n who_o shall_v say_v where_o be_v the_o promise_n of_o his_o come_n as_o though_o the_o threaten_n &_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v of_o none_o effect_n no_o no_o say_v he_o deceive_v not_o yourselves_o he_o will_v accomplish_v whatsoever_o he_o have_v speak_v though_o it_o be_v late_o for_o a_o thousand_o year_n with_o he_o be_v as_o but_o one_o day_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v look_v a_o great_a deal_n high_o and_o know_v that_o since_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v say_v it_o and_o never_o change_v that_o he_o will_v do_v that_o which_o he_o have_v speak_v but_o not_o whenas_o it_o please_v we_o but_o whenas_o he_o know_v it_o to_o be_v best_a first_o for_o his_o own_o glory_n and_o next_o for_o our_o salvation_n and_o good_a neither_o must_v we_o be_v over_o earnest_n nor_o yet_o over_o remise_n and_o slack_v but_o go_v out_o of_o ourselves_o &_o come_v unto_o he_o in_o who_o be_v no_o inconstancy_n nor_o show_n of_o change_n for_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o let_v we_o learn_v thus_o much_o that_o when_o he_o have_v once_o speak_v the_o word_n that_o it_o be_v enough_o because_o his_o word_n be_v a_o infallible_a truth_n furthermore_o let_v we_o acknowledge_v his_o goodness_n in_o support_v and_o bear_v with_o our_o weakness_n herein_o because_o he_o speak_v not_o only_o once_o but_o put_v we_o still_o in_o remembrance_n of_o his_o promise_n meaning_n thereby_o to_o have_v we_o profit_n and_o be_v confirm_v by_o they_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n and_o not_o believe_v he_o only_o for_o a_o day_n or_o two_o but_o for_o ever_o and_o let_v we_o be_v
