much_o every_o day_n and_o therefore_o not_o only_a while_n as_o yet_o we_o live_v we_o must_v seek_v he_o but_o we_o must_v not_o neglect_v any_o time_n yea_o we_o must_v with_o expedition_n accept_v any_o occasion_n of_o seek_v christ_n for_o we_o know_v not_o if_o ever_o he_o will_v knock_v at_o our_o door_n again_o the_o second_o error_n man_n commit_v in_o seek_v of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o manner_n it_o be_v long_o ere_o we_o begin_v to_o seek_v he_o who_o we_o shall_v seek_v before_o all_o thing_n but_o when_o we_o do_v begin_v to_o seek_v it_o be_v after_o a_o negligent_a and_o

after_o we_o have_v by_o faith_n work_v by_o charity_n apprehend_v christ_n we_o must_v not_o seek_v after_o any_o other_o faith_n no_o nor_o if_o we_o will_v follow_v the_o policy_n of_o some_o

no_o examination_n or_o discussion_n yet_o as_o often_o as_o factious_a or_o schismatical_a spirit_n shall_v offer_v disputation_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o faith_n or_o governemrnt_v to_o accept_v of_o that_o challenge_n be_v to_o bring_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v sound_o and_o sure_o settle_v to_o new_a trial_n and_o to_o seek_v after_o that_o which_o be_v already_o find_v which_o neither_o

without_o curiosity_n or_o distrust_v we_o ought_v to_o maintain_v even_o with_o the_o peril_n of_o our_o life_n as_o we_o have_v learn_v christ_n so_o let_v we_o go_v on_o root_v and_o ground_v in_o

heart_n by_o affection_n to_o which_o purpose_n i_o shall_v speak_v more_o in_o convenient_a place_n the_o three_o error_n man_n commit_v in_o seek_v after_o christ_n be_v that_o they_o seek_v he_o not_o in_o the_o place_n they_o shall_v seek_v he_o this_o be_v the_o error_n commit_v by_o these_o holy_a woman_n for_o which_o the_o angel_n blame_v they_o and_o therefore_o a_o little_a long_o to_o be_v insist_v upon_o and_o this_o error_n may_v be_v collect_v easy_o and_o plain_o from_o the_o speech_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o gospel_n who_o tell_v we_o that_o false_a christ_n 26._o
