concern_v our_o faith_n in_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v the_o three_o person_n in_o trinity_n and_o this_o be_v the_o eight_o article_n of_o our_o belief_n i_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o be_v to_o say_v i_o that_o be_o a_o christian_a man_n do_v believe_v and_o trust_v in_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o bless_a trinity_n which_o proceed_v equal_o from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n be_v the_o natural_a &_o essential_a power_n of_o they_o both_o &_o of_o the_o same_o substance_n which_o spirit_n sanctifi_v &_o comfort_v i_o in_o

article_n we_o learn_v two_o thing_n first_o what_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n second_o what_o be_v his_o effect_n &_o work_n as_o well_o in_o itself_o as_o in_o man_n in_o who_o heart_n it_o work_v and_o move_v he_o forward_o to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a to_o embrace_v and_o follow_v it_o with_o all_o earnestness_n but_o to_o hate_v and_o abhor_v from_o the_o heart_n that_o which_o be_v naught_o and_o wicked_a this_o holy_a ghost_n or_o spirit_n be_v the_o everlasting_a power_n and_o infinite_a might_n of_o god_n the_o father_n which_o spirit_n be_v no_o creature_n but_o a_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o very_a god_n because_o we_o be_v here_o teach_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o which_o sure_o except_o he_o be_v very_a god_n be_v idolatry_n to_o do_v for_o we_o must_v not_o believe_v in_o any_o creature_n or_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o any_o but_o in_o god_n only_o and_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n which_o certain_a heretic_n have_v deny_v it_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o five_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n where_o saint_n peter_n speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n name_v he_o god_n for_o he_o reprehend_v ananias_n and_o sapphira_n his_o wife_n for_o their_o hypocrisy_n and_o dissimulation_n and_o tell_v they_o that_o they_o lie_v unto_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o immediate_o after_o say_v that_o they_o lie_v not_o unto_o man_n but_o unto_o god_n in_o the_o first_o of_o genesis_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n move_v upon_o the_o water_n this_o be_v the_o three_o person_n in_o trinity_n which_o except_o he_o have_v be_v god_n can_v not_o have_v so_o move_v upon_o this_o great_a depth_n and_o secret_o by_o his_o power_n and_o majesty_n preserve_v and_o maintain_v it_o from_o fall_v to_o nothing_o david_n say_v all_o thing_n be_v make_v and_o create_v by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n therefore_o if_o he_o make_v all_o thing_n he_o be_v very_o god_n for_o this_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n alone_o to_o make_v &_o to_o create_v thing_n that_o argument_n of_o paul_n in_o the_o 1._o cor._n 2._o chap._n do_v sufficient_o prove_v this_o matter_n unto_o we_o where_o he_o say_v that_o this_o spirit_n search_v all_o thing_n yea_o the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n and_o that_o no_o man_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n now_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n know_v all_o thing_n search_v all_o thing_n they_o be_v he_o very_a god_n for_o no_o creature_n do_v this_o if_o this_o be_v so_o they_o we_o right_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n &_o here_o we_o gather_v this_o singular_a comfort_n that_o we_o may_v pray_v to_o this_o holy_a ghost_n at_o all_o time_n for_o his_o help_n &_o to_o impart_v some_o of_o his_o knowledge_n unto_o we_o

to_o rejoice_v because_o our_o redemption_n draw_v on_o for_o how_o shall_v we_o fear_v when_o christ_n will_v make_v we_o judge_n with_o he_o as_o he_o say_v you_o that_o have_v follow_v i_o in_o the_o regeneration_n shall_v sit_v upon_o twelve_o throne_n &_o judge_v the_o twelve_o tribe_n of_o israel_n and_o paul_n say_v do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o the_o saint_n shall_v judge_v the_o world_n not_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_n with_o christ_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v allow_v &_o approve_v his_o judgement_n for_o to_o speak_v proper_o the_o elect_a shall_v not_o be_v judge_v but_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v judge_v to_o everlasting_a fire_n this_o certain_o be_v no_o small_a comfort_n for_o weak_a conscience_n to_o consider_v that_o the_o prince_n shall_v judge_v his_o own_o people_n &_o subject_n the_o head_n his_o member_n &_o the_o advocate_n his_o client_n how_o then_o can_v he_o condemn_v those_o for_o who_o safeguard_n he_o do_v come_v &_o will_v ratify_v y●_z promise_v of_o everlasting_a bliss_n which_o he_o have_v promise_v here_o in_o this_o life_n by_o his_o gospel_n we_o shall_v not_o they_o be_v cite_v before_o any_o other_o tribunal_n seat_n they_o of_o our_o love_a bridegrone_n who_o shall_v make_v himself_o ready_a to_o receive_v his_o spouse_n &_o wife_n unto_o himself_o for_o ever_o revelat._n 21._o this_o day_n be_v call_v the_o marriage_n day_n of_o the_o lamb_n and_o his_o supper_n and_o his_o wife_n shall_v then_o be_v array_v with_o pure_a and_o fine_a linen_n and_o shine_a which_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o saint_n let_v we_o therefore_o be_v glad_a and_o rejoice_v and_o give_v glory_n to_o he_o that_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n there_o can_v be_v no_o day_n here_o so_o joyful_a as_o this_o yea_o all_o comfort_n be_v nothing_o to_o this_o that_o christ_n shall_v be_v our_o judge_n he_o can_v cast_v away_o they_o for_o who_o he_o have_v die_v he_o can_v deny_v himself_o paul_n when_o he_o consider_v of_o this_o judge_n and_o judgement_n rejoice_v even_o in_o prison_n that_o a_o crown_n of_o righteousness_n be_v lay_v up_o for_o he_o which_o the_o righteous_a judge_n christ_n jesus_n will_v give_v unto_o he_o in_o that_o day_n 2._o tim._n 4._o and_o here_o we_o learn_v a_o very_a good_a lesson_n by_o the_o way_n that_o if_o christ_n be_v our_o judge_n we_o must_v when_o we_o can_v not_o have_v redress_n here_o or_o judgement_n equal_o minister_v unto_o we_o refer_v our_o cause_n and_o matter_n of_o injury_n to_o he_o who_o be_v able_a to_o reform_v all_o thing_n and_o will_v at_o his_o come_n so_o that_o we_o must_v not_o which_o be_v private_a man_n revenge_v our_o own_o quarrel_n and_o injury_n but_o commit_v they_o all_o to_o he_o without_o murmur_v and_o he_o will_v judge_v they_o just_o then_o this_o do_v teach_v we_o patience_n to_o wait_v for_o this_o come_n of_o christ_n to_o judge_v all_o thing_n orderly_o and_o this_o good_a counsel_n do_v saint_n james_n give_v in_o his_o time_n to_o the_o poor_a oppress_a labourer_n &_o husbandman_n which_o be_v defraud_v by_o the_o rich_a man_n &_o have_v their_o hire_n and_o wage_n keep_v back_o he_o do_v comfort_v they_o in_o this_o respect_n that_o christ_n will_v come_v to_o judge_v their_o cause_n say_v be_v patient_a brethren_n until_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o settle_v your_o heart_n for_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n draw_v never_o yea_o and_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v luk._n 18._o that_o god_n will_v avenge_v his_o elect_a which_o cry_v day_n and_o night_n unto_o he_o and_o that_o short_o whereby_o we_o may_v gather_v also_o that_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n be_v not_o far_o off_o as_o the_o wicked_a do_v suppose_v but_o draw_v on_o every_o day_n near_o than_o other_o let_v we_o therefore_o as_o our_o saviour_n do_v counsel_v we_o watch_n and_o pray_v continual_o that_o we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v before_o he_o at_o his_o come_n to_o judgement_n we_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v commit_v our_o cause_n to_o christ_n &_o offer_v our_o complaint_n against_o the_o wicked_a to_o he_o and_o then_o doubtless_o with_o our_o eye_n we_o shall_v behold_v &_o see_v the_o reward_n of_o the_o wicked_a psal_n 91._o as_o this_o be_v very_o comfortable_a doctrine_n to_o the_o godly_a to_o hear_v that_o christ_n be_v their_o judge_n and_o auditor_n of_o all_o their_o cause_n so_o be_v it_o as_o doleful_a and_o grievous_a a_o thing_n to_o the_o wicked_a and_o cast_v aways_o to_o weigh_v with_o themselves_o that_o christ_n their_o enemy_n shall_v be_v their_o judge_n who_o they_o have_v always_o in_o their_o life_n time_n hate_v make_v a_o mock_n of_o and_o have_v in_o utter_a contempt_n both_o he_o his_o gospel_n and_o minister_n of_o his_o word_n and_o sacrament_n this_o shall_v pierce_v they_o to_o the_o very_a heart_n to_o see_v he_o their_o judge_n who_o they_o can_v never_o abide_v yea_o his_o sight_n and_o presence_n shall_v be_v so_o fearful_a and_o terrible_a unto_o they_o all_o that_o they_o shall_v curse_v the_o time_n that_o ever_o they_o be_v bear_v for_o they_o shall_v hide_v themselves_o in_o den_n and_o rock_n of_o the_o mountain_n and_o shall_v say_v to_o the_o hill_n fall_v upon_o we_o and_o hide_v we_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o he_o that_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n and_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lamb_n for_o the_o great_a day_n of_o his_o wrath_n be_v come_v and_o who_o can_v stand_v these_o and_o the_o like_a word_n shall_v they_o utter_v for_o dolour_n and_o anguish_n of_o mind_n and_o yet_o find_v no_o

not_o vaunt_v of_o their_o worthiness_n as_o paul_n do_v tell_v we_o in_o the_o 1._o corinthian_n 1_o chap._n most_o notable_o to_o conclude_v this_o part_n see_v the_o lord_n shall_v be_v judge_n to_o the_o wicked_a even_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o render_v flame_a fire_n and_o vengeance_n unto_o they_o that_o know_v not_o god_n and_o obey_v not_o his_o gospel_n this_o may_v teach_v they_o to_o fear_n and_o to_o live_v somewhat_o more_o orderly_o if_o not_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o virtue_n yet_o for_o fear_n of_o hell_n death_n and_o damnation_n to_o avoid_v the_o punishment_n that_o will_v light_v upon_o sin_n at_o that_o day_n let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o third_z point_n the_o person_n that_o shall_v come_v before_o this_o judge_n to_o be_v examine_v
