by_o the_o lay_n on_o of_o my_o hand_n be_v not_o hinder_v saint_n paul_n challenge_v not_o to_o himself_o y_o e_fw-la thing_n that_o be_v peculiar_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n neither_o mean_v he_o that_o he_o have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o his_o sleeve_n to_o give_v he_o to_o who_o he_o list_v by_o the_o reach_a out_o of_o his_o arm_n but_o he_o show_v we_o that_o the_o sign_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v unto_o it_o be_v not_o vain_a or_o uneffectual_a moreover_o the_o same_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v more_o in_o all_o the_o sacrament_n whereof_o the_o scripture_n speak_v than_o in_o all_o other_o sign_n that_o be_v to_o be_v have_v in_o the_o world_n i_o have_v already_o allege_v a_o similitude_n of_o y_z e_z deliver_v of_o a_o feather_n or_o of_o a_o wand_n to_o he_o y_o it_o purchase_v a_o inheritance_n but_o there_o be_v yet_o much_o more_o in_o the_o sacrament_n we_o must_v go_v yet_o one_o step_n high_o forthere_o our_o lord_n work_v that_o by_o his_o power_n which_o man_n can_v do_v true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o such_o a_o ceremony_n be_v once_o do_v &_o perform_v the_o law_n will_v maintain_v a_o man_n in_o possession_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v purchase_v howbeit_o that_o be_v not_o all_o for_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o god_n perform_v by_o the_o secret_a power_n of_o his_o spirit_n whatsoever_o he_o show_v and_o witness_v to_o the_o eye_n so_o then_o we_o must_v ever_o come_v to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v effectual_a &_o that_o they_o be_v no_o trifle_a sign_n which_o vanish_v away_o in_o the_o air_n but_o that_o the_o truth_n be_v always_o match_v with_o they_o because_o that_o god_n who_o be_v faithful_a show_v that_o he_o have_v not_o ordain_v any_o thing_n in_o vain_a and_o y_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o y_o it_o in_o baptism_n we_o receive_v true_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n we_o be_v wash_v and_o cleanse_v which_o it_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o be_v renew_v by_o y_z e_z operation_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o how_o so_o have_v a_o little_a water_n such_o power_n when_o it_o be_v cast_v upon_o y_o e_o head_n of_o a_o child_n no_o but_o because_o it_o be_v y_z e_z will_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n y_fw-fr t_o the_o water_n shall_v be_v a_o visible_a sign_n of_o his_o blood_n &_o of_o y_fw-fr e_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o baptism_n have_v y_o it_o virtue_n &_o whatsoever_o be_v there_o set_v forth_o to_o the_o eye_n be_v forth_o with_o accomplish_a in_o very_a deed_n if_o we_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o a_o little_a cantle_n of_o bread_n and_o a_o drop_n of_o wine_n can_v quicken_v our_o soul_n for_o they_o be_v corruptible_a thing_n but_o thereby_o we_o have_v a_o record_n y_fw-fr t_o we_o be_v feed_v with_o y_z e_z body_n &_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n &_o by_o y_a to_o record_v we_o know_v you_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n show_v y_o it_o will_v not_o deceive_v we_o in_o his_o promise_n nor_o hold_v we_o down_o with_o our_o nebbe_n in_o the_o water_n as_o they_o say_v but_o that_o he_o perform_v all_o that_o ever_o be_v tell_v we_o there_o insomuch_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o that_o holy_a table_n we_o must_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o our_o soul_n be_v nourish_v with_o the_o spiritual_a food_n which_o we_o see_v not_o and_o that_o our_o faith_n must_v mount_v up_o unto_o heaven_n there_o to_o be_v join_v with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n here_o than_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v unto_o we_o of_o the_o sign_n which_o we_o have_v in_o use_n according_a to_o god_n ordinance_n the_o very_a truth_n of_o they_o be_v present_a with_o they_o and_o why_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v our_o lord_n allow_v of_o our_o say_v in_o that_o behalf_n show_v unto_o we_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o proceed_v from_o he_o be_v not_o deceivable_a and_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v full_o resolve_v hereof_o in_o the_o sacrament_n so_o let_v we_o mark_v on_o the_o contrary_a part_n that_o when_o man_n invent_v thing_n of_o their_o own_o head_n without_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n they_o be_v but_o toy_n and_o may-game_n and_o no_o better_o as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o popedom_n they_o have_v many_o sign_n which_o they_o will_v have_v man_n to_o accept_v as_o high_a mystery_n what_o a_o sort_n fond_a thing_n be_v in_o the_o mass_n and_o yet_o if_o a_o man_n will_v believe_v they_o there_o be_v nothing_o which_o be_v not_o well_o worthy_a to_o be_v commend_v they_o will_v have_v it_o y_o it_o there_o they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v ravish_v up_o among_o the_o angel_n when_o they_o play_v their_o pretty_a pageante_n and_o yet_o all_o be_v but_o utter_a vanity_n and_o a_o blear_a or_o dazzle_n of_o man_n eye_n and_o why_o for_o if_o a_o man_n demand_v from_o whence_o those_o thing_n come_v he_o shall_v find_v that_o man_n forge_v they_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o warrant_n for_o they_o from_o god_n yea_o and_o even_o we_o ourselves_o do_v see_v that_o they_o have_v defile_v baptism_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o can_v not_o utter_o dispatch_v it_o out_o of_o the_o way_n but_o that_o even_o in_o spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n and_o in_o spite_n of_o satan_n who_o stir_v they_o thereunto_o and_o reign_v over_o they_o yet_o still_o at_o this_o day_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v bring_v to_o pass_v that_o his_o baptism_n continue_v still_o in_o his_o church_n but_o yet_o we_o see_v how_o it_o be_v infect_v with_o many_o spot_v among_o the_o papist_n so_o as_o the_o baptism_n itself_o be_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o rest_n for_o they_o esteem_v not_o a_o child_n to_o be_v baptize_v with_o the_o water_n as_o it_o be_v of_o itself_o but_o the_o water_n must_v be_v charm_v aforehande_v and_o it_o must_v have_v conjuration_n make_v over_o it_o and_o then_o must_v other_o invention_n be_v mingle_v with_o it_o as_o spital_n sault_n and_o taper_n &_o a_o number_n of_o other_o gaud_n which_o will_v make_v a_o man_n amaze_v and_o what_o import_v all_o this_o every_o whit_n of_o it_o be_v but_o dung_n take_v from_o satan_n and_o hold_v still_o and_o yet_o the_o papist_n set_v all_o their_o holiness_n therein_o again_o they_o have_v invent_v sacrament_n of_o their_o own_o brain_n as_o their_o sacrament_n of_o conformation_n as_o they_o term_v it_o and_o their_o sacrament_n of_o aneal_v and_o all_o their_o other_o pelt_a toy_n and_o to_o be_v short_a what_o else_o be_v all_o the_o ceremony_n which_o we_o see_v among_o they_o but_o utter_a illusion_n of_o satan_n therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o discern_v the_o thing_n which_o god_n ordeyn_v and_o allow_v by_o his_o word_n from_o the_o thing_n that_o man_n have_v putfoorth_o at_o adventure_n and_o after_o their_o own_o fancy_n and_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o as_o god_n truth_n be_v always_o certain_a and_o infallible_a so_o y_z e_z thing_n that_o be_v bring_v up_o by_o man_n can_v not_o proceed_v but_o of_o untruth_n and_o falsehood_n for_o they_o be_v govern_v by_o satan_n who_o be_v the_o father_n thereof_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n in_o effect_n which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n and_o let_v we_o mark_v further_o that_o when_o man_n be_v choose_v to_o govern_v god_n church_n so_o it_o be_v by_o orderly_o proceed_v according_a to_o his_o word_n they_o shall_v be_v guide_v and_o govern_v by_o he_o and_o he_o will_v furnish_v they_o with_o his_o gracious_a gift_n as_o far_o as_o shall_v be_v needful_a for_o they_o and_o whereas_o we_o perceive_v not_o nowadays_o the_o thing_n by_o experience_n which_o be_v contain_v here_o it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o unbelief_n and_o leaudnesse_n for_o have_v we_o such_o order_n of_o election_n as_o aught_o to_o be_v in_o choose_v minister_n to_o preach_v god_n word_n and_o that_o we_o go_v about_o it_o with_o such_o reverence_n as_o be_v requisite_a with_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o god_n &_o with_o observe_v the_o order_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o have_v set_v it_o down_o by_o his_o word_n and_o again_o if_o the_o like_a be_v do_v in_o the_o choose_n of_o magistrate_n and_o officer_n of_o justice_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n also_o will_v shedfoorth_o the_o gracious_a gift_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o his_o blessing_n shall_v not_o be_v vain_a in_o those_o election_n but_o what_o because_o we_o be_v oftentimes_o puff_v up_o with_o presumption_n and_o every_o man_n deal_v after_o his_o own_o fancy_n and_o a_o great_a sort_n of_o we_o never_o pass_v for_o the_o observe_n of_o the_o thing_n

who_o we_o have_v misuse_v do_v forgive_v we_o yet_o will_v god_n ever_o be_v a_o judge_n to_o we_o until_o we_o have_v acknowledge_v our_o fault_n and_o endeavour_n to_o amend_v they_o insomuch_o that_o although_o his_o wrath_n appear_v not_o towards_o we_o &_o that_o our_o wrong_a deal_n have_v lyen_fw-we long_o conceal_v so_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v stark_o dead_a &_o quite_o forget_v yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o remembrance_n thereof_o be_v always_o fresh_a before_o god_n let_v we_o consider_v this_o and_o let_v every_o of_o we_o in_o true_a repentance_n rebuke_v himself_o and_o amend_v his_o misdoing_n indevor_v to_o live_v quiet_o &_o without_o do_v any_o harm_n and_o for_o the_o do_v thereof_o let_v we_o think_v upon_o the_o outcry_n whereof_o the_o apostle_n speak_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrews_n say_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n cry_v much_o better_a than_o do_v the_o blood_n of_o abel_n 12.25_o heb._n 12.25_o not_o to_o ask_v vengeance_n of_o god_n against_o we_o so_o we_o receive_v he_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o our_o sin_n be_v wash_v &_o cleanse_v away_o for_o to_o that_o purpose_n be_v that_o holy_a blood_n of_o his_o shed_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v cry_v out_o for_o vengeance_n against_o all_o the_o faithless_a and_o froward_a sort_n &_o against_o such_o as_o have_v refuse_v the_o doctrine_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o gospel_n &_o tread_v it_o under_o foot_n &_o make_v a_o scorn_n of_o it_o &_o all_o profane_a folk_n for_o all_o such_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o bloodshed_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n but_o when_o we_o receive_v his_o blood_n by_o faith_n &_o know_v you_o to_o it_o ought_v to_o serve_v we_o as_o a_o purgation_n to_o make_v we_o righteous_a and_o innocent_a before_o god_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o y_o it_o the_o same_o blood_n have_v his_o cry_n and_o in_o deed_n we_o see_v how_o the_o gospel_n sound_v and_o ring_n in_o our_o ear_n to_o y_fw-fr e_o intent_n we_o shall_v know_v the_o virtue_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n for_o it_o be_v no_o dead_a thing_n but_o it_o be_v ever_o fresh_a as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o it_o in_o another_o place_n 10.20_o heb._n 10.20_o yea_o &_o it_o be_v so_o fresh_a y_fw-mi t_o it_o have_v his_o lively_a force_n continual_o to_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n therefore_o let_v we_o right_o weigh_v this_o inestimable_a benefit_n &_o receive_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o gospel_n whereby_o god_n witness_v unto_o we_o that_o he_o admit_v the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n for_o our_o wash_n that_o we_o may_v appear_v before_o his_o majesty_n with_o full_a hope_n now_o let_v we_o cast_v ourselves_o down_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o good_a

by_o ourselves_o and_o which_o we_o perceive_v &_o whereof_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v ashamed_a before_o man_n but_o also_o our_o ignorances_n &_o our_o secret_a sin_n whereof_o we_o be_v now_o guilty_a and_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o know_v how_o there_o be_v many_o vice_n and_o infirmity_n in_o we_o let_v we_o mourn_v for_o they_o before_o god_n and_o let_v it_o make_v we_o to_o proceed_v more_o and_o

a_o bullock_n or_o a_o brute_n beast_n to_o answer_v for_o we_o nowadays_o as_o though_o the_o blood_n thereof_o shall_v serve_v we_o for_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o let_v we_o resort_v to_o our_o lord_n

the_o twenty-five_o of_o december_n 1555._o the_o cxxi_o sermon_n which_o be_v the_o second_o upon_o the_o one_o and_o twentieth_o chapter_n 10_o when_o thou_o go_v to_o battle_n against_o thy_o
