man_n be_v so_o perfect_a as_o can_v be_v in_o this_o sinful_a life_n put_v all_o these_o together_o and_o it_o be_v as_o if_o s._n paul_n shall_v say_v quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n by_o despise_v of_o prophesy_v neither_o despise_v prophesy_v because_o all_o do_v not_o preach_v alike_o but_o rather_o when_o you_o hear_v some_o preach_v one_o way_n and_o some_o another_o way_n do_v you_o try_v their_o doctrine_n by_o the_o scripture_n as_o the_o man_n of_o berea_n do_v and_o then_o choose_v that_o which_o be_v best_a and_o sound_a and_o true_a have_v always_o such_o a_o eye_n to_o the_o truth_n that_o thou_o abstain_v from_o all_o appearance_n of_o error_n so_o zealous_a the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v have_v we_o of_o our_o faith_n that_o we_o set_v no_o atticle_n upon_o our_o religion_n but_o that_o which_o be_v a_o undoubted_a truth_n the_o spirit_n be_v quench_v as_o our_o zeal_n our_o faith_n and_o our_o love_n be_v quench_v with_o sin_n every_o vain_a thought_n every_o vain_a word_n and_o every_o wicked_a deed_n be_v like_o so_o many_o drop_n to_o quench_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o business_n of_o this_o world_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o the_o care_n of_o the_o mind_n some_o quench_v it_o with_o long_a delay_n that_o be_v not_o apply_v the_o motion_n when_o it_o come_v but_o cross_v the_o good_a thought_n with_o bad_a thought_n and_o do_v a_o thing_n when_o the_o spirit_n say_v do_v it_o not_o sometime_n a_o man_n shall_v feel_v himself_o stir_v to_o a_o good_a work_n as_o though_o he_o be_v lead_v to_o it_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o again_o he_o shall_v be_v fright_v from_o some_o evil_a thing_n as_o though_o he_o be_v reproove_v in_o his_o ear_n then_o if_o he_o resist_v he_o shall_v straight_o seel_v the_o spirit_n go_v out_o of_o he_o and_o hear_v as_o it_o be_v a_o voice_n pronounce_v he_o guilty_a and_o shall_v hardly_o recover_v his_o peace_n again_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n say_v grieve_v not_o the_o spirit_n show_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v often_o grieve_a before_o it_o be_v quench_v and_o that_o when_o a_o man_n begin_v to_o grieve_v and_o check_v and_o persecute_v it_o that_o be_v until_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v no_o spirit_n at_o all_o but_o walk_v like_o a_o temple_n of_o flesh_n it_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n no_o man_n say_v paul_n can_v say_v that_o jesus_n be_v the_o lord_n but_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n again_o the_o spirit_n help_v our_o infirmity_n the_o same_o spirit_n bear_v witness_v with_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n it_o be_v he_o that_o lead_v we_o into_o all_o truth_n and_o open_v our_o heart_n to_o understand_v and_o guide_v our_o foot_n into_o the_o way_n of_o peace_n o_o despise_v not_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o spirit_n refuse_v not_o his_o help_n but_o seek_v it_o that_o you_o may_v be_v strengthen_v comfort_v yourselves_o in_o his_o testimony_n of_o your_o adoption_n quench_v not_o the_o light_n he_o have_v kindle_v in_o your_o heart_n disdain_v not_o his_o lead_n abuse_v not_o his_o mercy_n abuse_v not_o the_o time_n of_o your_o visitation_n let_v not_o so_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n bestow_v on_o you_o be_v in_o vain_a fulfil_v not_o your_o own_o will_n abstain_v from_o fleshly_a joust_n walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n desire_n the_o best_a gift_n and_o let_v every_o man_n as_o he_o have_v receive_v the_o gift_n so_o minister_v the_o same_o to_o another_o as_o good_a disposer_n of_o the_o manifold_a grace_n of_o god_n despise_v not_o prophesy_v this_o admonition_n be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o keeper_n of_o the_o former_a for_o by_o prophesy_v the_o spirit_n be_v kindle_v and_o without_o prophesy_v the_o spirit_n be_v quench_v and_o therefore_o after_o quench_v not_o the_o spirit_n say_v paul_n show_v that_o as_o our_o sin_n do_v quench_v the_o spirit_n so_o prophesy_v do_v kindle_v it_o this_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o disciple_n that_o go_v to_o emaus_n of_o who_o it_o be_v say_v when_o christ_n preach_v unto_o they_o out_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n the_o spirit_n be_v so_o kindle_v with_o his_o preach_n that_o their_o heart_n wax_v hot_a within_o they_o this_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o kindle_v and_o reviue_v and_o refresh_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o the_o word_n be_v call_v the_o food_n of_o the_o soul_n take_v away_o the_o word_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o it_o have_v no_o food_n to_o eat_v as_o if_o you_o shall_v take_v food_n from_o the_o body_n the_o body_n will_v pine_v therefore_o solomon_n say_v without_o preach_v the_o people_n perish_v therefore_o he_o which_o love_v his_o soul_n have_v no_o need_n to_o despise_v prophesy_v for_o than_o he_o famish_v his_o own_o soul_n and_o be_v guilty_a of_o her_o death_n prophesy_v be_v the_o preach_n and_o expound_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o he_o be_v call_v a_o prophet_n and_o do_v prophecy_n that_o open_v unto_o we_o the_o will_n of_o god_n despise_v not_o therefore_o to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v turn_v not_o away_o thy_o ear_n from_o understanding_n god_n give_v power_n to_o his_o word_n that_o it_o may_v work_v according_a to_o his_o good_a pleasure_n it_o will_v let_v thou_o see_v the_o weakness_n of_o thy_o error_n and_o settle_v thou_o in_o the_o way_n wherein_o thou_o shall_v walk_v if_o it_o have_v be_v dangerous_a for_o thou_o to_o hear_v the_o prophesy_a of_o the_o gospel_n he_o will_v not_o have_v send_v his_o disciple_n into_o the_o world_n to_o preach_v it_o if_o lydia_n shall_v not_o have_v like_v to_o hear_v paul_n preach_v how_o may_v she_o have_v know_v god_n if_o those_o great_a number_n which_o hear_v peter_n and_o be_v convert_v have_v despise_v prophesy_v and_o will_v not_o have_v hear_v he_o declare_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o they_o they_o have_v never_o consider_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n nor_o seek_v to_o be_v instruct_v in_o their_o

please_v god_n say_v paul_n by_o foolishness_n of_o preach_v to_o save_v they_o that_o believe_v 1_o cor._n 1._o despise_v not_o then_o to_o come_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n to_o pray_v with_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o faithful_a to_o hear_v the_o scripture_n of_o god_n read_v and_o expound_v it_o be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n offer_v unto_o thou_o he_o that_o despise_v it_o shall_v be_v despise_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o shall_v be_v leave_v in_o darkness_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o negative_a part_n which_o we_o must_v not_o do_v it_o follow_v to_o try_v all_o thing_n and_o keep_v that_o which_o be_v good_a after_o despise_v not_o prophesy_v it_o follow_v try_v all_o thing_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v but_o for_o all_o that_o try_v prophesy_v lest_o thou_o believe_v error_n for_o truth_n for_o as_o among_o ruler_n there_o be_v bad_a ruler_n so_o among_o preacher_n there_o be_v false_a preacher_n this_o make_v christ_n warn_v his_o disciple_n to_o be_v ware_n of_o the_o leaven_n of_o the_o pharisy_n that_o be_v of_o their_o false_a doctrine_n this_o make_v john_n say_v try_v the_o spirit_n therefore_o we_o read_v in_o the_o act_v 17.11_o how_o the_o man_n of_o berea_n will_v not_o receive_v paul_n doctrine_n before_o they_o have_v try_v it_o and_o how_o do_v they_o try_v it_o it_o be_v say_v they_o search_v the_o scripture_n this_o be_v the_o way_n which_o paul_n will_v teach_v you_o to_o try_v other_o whereby_o he_o be_v try_v himself_o thereby_o you_o may_v see_v that_o if_o you_o use_v to_o read_v the_o scripture_n you_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o try_v all_o doctrine_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o touchstone_n of_o every_o doubt_n like_o the_o light_n which_o god_n make_v to_o behold_v all_o his_o creature_n so_o be_v the_o scripture_n to_o decide_v all_o question_n every_o doubt_n must_v come_v to_o the_o word_n and_o all_o controversy_n must_v be_v end_v at_o this_o tribunal_n the_o scripture_n must_v speak_v which_o be_v right_a and_o which_o be_v wrong_a which_o be_v truth_n and_o which_o be_v error_n and_o all_o tongue_n must_v keep_v silence_n to_o hear_v it_o a_o man_n tri_v his_o friend_n before_o he_o trust_v he_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o try_v our_o faith_n which_o must_v save_v we_o saint_n paul_n say_v let_v every_o
come_v from_o heaven_n as_o saint_n peter_n affirm_v say_v all_o scripture_n be_v give_v by_o inspiration_n of_o god_n and_o be_v profitable_a to_o doctrine_n to_o reprocue_v to_o correction_n to_o instruction_n which_o be_v in_o righteousness_n that_o the_o man_n of_o god_n may_v be_v perfect_o instruct_v unto_o all_o good_a work_n 2._o tim._n 3.16_o and_o again_o it_o be_v say_v the_o scripture_n come_v not_o by_o man_n neither_o by_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n speak_v as_o they_o be_v move_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o therefore_o this_o word_n of_o truth_n must_v always_o go_v before_o we_o like_o the_o fiery_a pillar_n to_o show_v we_o when_o we_o be_v in_o the_o way_n and_o when_o we_o be_v not_o or_o else_o the_o broad_a way_n will_v seem_v the_o best_a way_n therefore_o all_o they_o which_o care_v not_o for_o the_o word_n go_v like_o blind_a man_n to_o hell_n for_o heaven_n for_o the_o papist_n devise_v many_o way_n to_o come_v to_o heaven_n not_o be_v ground_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n therefore_o they_o be_v blind_a leader_n of_o the_o blind_a therefore_o the_o apostle_n do_v warn_v we_o to_o examine_v ourselves_o whether_o we_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n that_o be_v in_o the_o true_a faith_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o believe_v but_o we_o must_v care_v how_o to_o believe_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o pray_v but_o we_o must_v care_v how_o we_o pray_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o hear_v but_o we_o must_v care_v how_o we_o hear_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o work_v but_o we_o must_v care_v how_o we_o work_v for_o we_o can_v do_v good_a unless_o we_o do_v it_o well_o now_o we_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o perfect_a truth_n which_o lead_v all_o true_a christian_n unto_o eternal_a happiness_n therefore_o god_n have_v prepare_v the_o right_a way_n wherein_o every_o true_a christian_a may_v learn_v to_o travel_v towards_o heaven_n and_o to_o walk_v true_o and_o evermore_o to_o know_v the_o true_a way_n from_o the_o false_a and_o be_v manifest_o and_o true_o declare_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n have_v lay_v down_o the_o true_a foundation_n of_o this_o way_n which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n alone_o and_o as_o he_o himself_o testife_v say_v i_o be_o the_o w●y_a the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n that_o be_v the_o true_a way_n to_o everlasting_a life_n john_n 14._o therefore_o learn_v christ_n and_o learn_v the_o true_a and_o petfect_a way_n to_o heaven_n for_o to_o learn_v christ_n true_o be_v as_o much_o as_o be_v needful_a to_o be_v learn_v in_o all_o the_o whole_a scripture_n for_o all_o the_o scripture_n run_v upon_o christ_n and_o christ_n be_v unto_o the_o faithful_a all_o in_o all_o for_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o no_o man_n say_v the_o apostle_n can_v lay_v any_o other_o foundation_n that_o can_v stand_v he_o exhort_v therefore_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o he_o build_v for_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o scripture_n shall_v try_v every_o man_n work_n that_o be_v every_o man_n preach_v every_o man_n faith_n every_o man_n life_n and_o if_o any_o man_n build_v upon_o this_o foundation_n lay_v by_o paul_n i_o mean_v jesus_n christ_n build_v sure_o to_o stand_v fast_o for_o ever_o because_o he_o be_v alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n of_o our_o salvation_n therefore_o he_o be_v figure_v in_o the_o law_n fortolde_v in_o the_o prophet_n and_o fulfil_v in_o the_o gospel_n some_o place_n point_n to_o his_o diulnity_n some_o to_o his_o humanity_n some_o to_o his_o kingdom_n some_o to_o his_o priesthood_n some_o to_o his_o pprophecy_n soem_n to_o his_o conception_n some_o to_o his_o birth_n some_o to_o his_o life_n some_o to_o his_o miracle_n some_o to_o his_o passion_n some_o to_o his_o resurrection_n some_o to_o his_o ascension_n some_o to_o his_o glorification_n all_o point_n to_o our_o saviour_n therefore_o learn_v christ_n and_o learn_v all_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o learn_v we_o must_v be_v teach_v how_o we_o shall_v hear_v how_o we_o shall_v pray_v how_o we_o shall_v love_v how_o we_o shall_v believe_v and_o how_o we_o shall_v follow_v christ_n that_o we_o may_v know_v when_o we_o have_v learn_v he_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 13._o to_o the_o rom._n say_v put_v you_o on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o though_o this_o word_n do_v contain_v all_o our_o duty_n unto_o christ_n to_o put_v he_o on_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o level_n of_o this_o phrase_n if_o you_o mark_v how_o it_o come_v in_o for_o before_o s._n paul_n say_v cast_v away_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n and_o put_v on_o the_o armour_n of_o light_n than_o he_o name_v the_o work_n which_o he_o shall_v put_v off_o that_o be_v gluttony_n drunkenness_n strife_n envy_n chamber_v wantonness_n after_o he_o name_v the_o armour_n of_o light_n which_o he_o shall_v put_v on_o and_o call_v it_o by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o giver_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o do_v not_o apply_v virtue_n against_o vice_n as_o one_o will_v think_v when_o he_o have_v say_v cast_v off_o gluttony_n he_o shall_v have_v say_v put_v on_o sobriety_n also_o when_o he_o say_v cast_v off_o wantonness_n he_o shall_v have_v say_v put_v on_o continency_n when_o he_o say_v cast_v off_o envy_n he_o shall_v have_v say_v put_v on_o love_n but_o in_o stead_n of_o all_o virtue_n he_o commend_v the_o ensample_n of_o christ_n for_o every_o virtue_n and_o oppose_v it_o against_o every_o vice_n for_o his_o ensample_n will_v teach_v he_o what_o he_o shall_v do_v and_o what_o he_o shall_v fly_v better_a than_o all_o the_o precept_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o study_v what_o this_o mean_v to_o put_v on_o christ_n this_o phrase_n be_v

christ_n unto_o us._n and_o in_o no_o term_n he_o have_v show_v it_o more_o lively_a then_o in_o this_o phrase_n for_o it_o signifi_v that_o christ_n do_v cover_v we_o like_o a_o garment_n and_o

his_o death_n that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n can_v find_v we_o judgement_n can_v spy_v we_o the_o curse_n can_v see_v we_o but_o christ_n be_v not_o our_o head_n and_o safeguard_n unless_o we_o be_v his_o member_n christ_n be_v not_o our_o garment_n unless_o we_o put_v he_o on_o as_o christ_n do_v put_v on_o our_o garment_n when_o he_o clothe_v himself_o with_o our_o flesh_n and_o take_v our_o

from_o foyl_v and_o rent_v it_o lest_o such_o a_o precious_a garment_n be_v not_o take_v from_o we_o again_o therefore_o many_o seem_v to_o wear_v this_o garment_n which_o shall_v be_v thrust_v from_o
