do_v sore_o vex_v we_o while_o we_o see_v to_o our_o dignity_n and_o to_o such_o as_o be_v we_o that_o we_o may_v make_v provision_n for_o they_o with_o all_o the_o commodity_n of_o this_o life_n and_o when_o man_n have_v get_v these_o thing_n now_o they_o labour_v no_o far_o as_o though_o they_o have_v get_v all_o but_o when_o they_o have_v not_o that_o they_o endeavour_n with_o all_o study_n and_o care_n to_o come_v thereby_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n they_o have_v no_o regard_n of_o this_o thing_n that_o be_v most_o necessary_a until_o they_o fall_v sudden_o into_o this_o snare_n even_o into_o this_o judgement_n and_o damnation_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o christ_n put_v forth_o the_o example_n of_o the_o scotfree_a man_n to_o withdraw_v we_o from_o the_o care_n of_o thing_n present_a vi_o and_o to_o make_v we_o geve_v more_o heed_n to_o everlasting_a life_n for_o if_o this_o rich_a man_n have_v not_o give_v over_o his_o heart_n to_o worldly_a prosperity_n but_o have_v rather_o trust_v in_o the_o live_n god_n he_o have_v never_o come_v to_o this_o place_n of_o torment_fw-mi and_o destruction_n but_o now_o contrary_a to_o the_o precepte_v of_o god_n he_o drown_v up_o himself_o with_o riches_n and_o forget_v his_o state_n to_o come_v he_o appli_v all_o thing_n only_o to_o his_o desire_n and_o lust_n and_o will_v suffer_v no_o other_o thing_n to_o come_v into_o his_o mind_n contrary_n to_o this_o teach_v christ_n that_o we_o shall_v watch_v lest_o we_o suffer_v with_o the_o scotfree_a man_n everlasting_a death_n as_o a_o recompense_n for_o this_o little_a joy_n xxi_o these_o two_o example_n be_v such_o as_o never_o ought_v to_o fall_v out_o of_o memory_n that_o first_o of_o all_o in_o time_n of_o trouble_n we_o may_v have_v a_o sure_a trust_n and_o comfort_v then_o also_o that_o in_o the_o prosperity_n of_o this_o world_n we_o fall_v not_o into_o danger_n of_o everlasting_a death_n and_o to_o this_o also_o do_v that_o belong_v â–ª_o that_o christ_n speak_v after_o that_o the_o scotfree_a man_n perceive_v his_o own_o cause_n to_o be_v past_a remedy_n yet_o care_v for_o his_o brotherne_a and_o desire_v that_o lazarus_n may_v be_v send_v to_o his_o father_n house_n lest_o that_o if_o they_o continue_v in_o their_o old_a conversation_n they_o also_o shall_v fall_v into_o like_a punishment_n but_o abraham_n deni_v he_o that_o and_o say_v they_o have_v moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n let_v they_o hear_v they_o but_o when_o the_o scotfree_a man_n procee_v &_o allege_v that_o there_o shall_v ensue_v much_o profit_n by_o this_o message_n if_o the_o dead_a shall_v go_v preach_v to_o they_o that_o live_v abraham_n answer_v if_o they_o hear_v not_o moses_n nor_o the_o prophet_n neither_o will_v they_o believe_v if_o any_o shall_v come_v to_o they_o from_o the_o dead_a now_o this_o scotfree_a man_n understand_v that_o he_o that_o will_v escape_v this_o have_v need_n of_o repentance_n and_o perceive_v â–ª_o that_o that_o may_v chance_v to_o other_o as_o it_o chance_v to_o he_o that_o although_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o preacher_n thereof_o abide_v with_o man_n in_o the_o world_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o move_v they_o neither_o to_o repentance_n neither_o to_o amendment_n of_o life_n wherefore_o he_o think_v it_o best_a for_o his_o brother_n if_o one_o from_o the_o dead_a that_o can_v tell_v of_o thing_n invisible_a shall_v come_v unto_o they_o neither_o will_v this_o seem_v to_o we_o also_o other_o wise_a than_o the_o matter_n require_v if_o such_o a_o prophet_n shall_v come_v amongst_o man_n but_o abraham_n can_v not_o be_v persuade_v to_o allow_v this_o and_o therefore_o he_o say_v unto_o he_o that_o will_v escape_v this_o pain_n must_v have_v respect_n to_o nothing_o but_o to_o the_o prophet_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o escape_v the_o danger_n of_o eternal_a damnation_n but_o he_o that_o will_v hear_v neither_o moses_n nor_o the_o prophet_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a if_o one_o shall_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a or_o if_o a_o angel_n or_o god_n himself_o shall_v preach_v for_o such_o will_v never_o be_v bring_v to_o believe_v this_o be_v a_o high_a praise_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o ministry_n thereof_o whereas_o man_n be_v necessary_o bind_v to_o it_o so_o that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o think_v that_o there_o be_v any_o other_o mean_v to_o avoid_v this_o pestilence_n and_o destruction_n but_o what_o do_v moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n teach_v these_o two_o thing_n special_o first_o they_o show_v the_o promise_a seed_n of_o the_o woman_n that_o shall_v break_v the_o serpent_n head_n that_o be_v shall_v deprive_v and_o strip_v the_o devil_n of_o all_o his_o power_n and_o make_v good_a the_o damage_n take_v in_o paradise_n unto_o this_o seed_n that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n prophet_n and_o bring_v divine_a power_n and_o righteousness_n to_o we_o in_o the_o earth_n both_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n be_v whole_o apply_v and_o of_o this_o they_o teach_v and_o command_v that_o when_o this_o come_v &_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v that_o man_n shall_v hear_v &_o geve_v credit_n there_o to_o iii._n he_o that_o after_o this_o sort_n hear_v moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n first_o of_o all_o he_o will_v despeire_n of_o his_o own_o work_n and_o power_n and_o will_v trust_v only_o in_o this_o seed_n that_o it_o only_o be_v the_o bless_a seed_n and_o that_o it_o do_v restore_v to_o we_o that_o be_v accurse_v the_o blessing_n xxii_o so_o then_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v the_o only_a and_o true_a way_n whereby_o we_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o get_v salvation_n faith_n this_o saviour_n with_o his_o comfort_n be_v not_o regard_v of_o the_o scotfree_a man_n he_o take_v his_o wealth_n end_n felicity_n to_o be_v a_o sure_a token_n of_o his_o own_o righteousness_n favour_n for_o as_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o gather_v by_o adversity_n that_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o they_o so_o like_o wise_a when_o they_o be_v in_o prosperity_n they_o take_v it_o for_o a_o token_n of_o god_n favour_n whereas_o yet_o temporal_a blessing_n be_v of_o no_o great_a weight_n and_o common_o it_o chance_v that_o the_o ungodlie_a be_v more_o fortunate_a than_o the_o godly_a but_o if_o thou_o can_v hear_v he_o that_o geve_v thou_o good_a council_n beware_v thou_o trust_v not_o in_o thy_o riches_n but_o trust_v only_o in_o he_o of_o who_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n speak_v or_o else_o thou_o shall_v have_v none_o other_o end_n than_o have_v the_o scotfree_a man_n which_o have_v moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o yet_o beleve_v not_o work_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n teach_v be_v this_o that_o forasmuch_o as_o all_o trust_n of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o salvation_n consist_v in_o the_o promise_a seed_n we_o show_v obedience_n to_o god_n and_o do_v that_o he_o bid_v and_o flee_v that_o he_o forbid_v for_o that_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o fear_n god_n and_o to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n but_o he_o that_o have_v rather_o obey_v his_o own_o lust_n than_o god_n law_n he_o can_v not_o glory_v in_o this_o that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o care_v for_o god_n but_o rather_o he_o can_v never_o be_v without_o this_o care_n wherein_o he_o fear_v lest_o god_n shall_v come_v sudden_o and_o judge_v he_o among_o the_o damn_a so_o that_o these_o two_o thing_n must_v needs_o be_v join_v together_o that_o be_v faith_n &_o obedience_n towards_o god._n faith_n be_v require_v to_o deliver_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n christian_n and_o to_o make_v we_o the_o child_n of_o god._n obedience_n or_o charity_n and_o her_o work_n be_v also_o require_v that_o we_o may_v show_v such_o obedience_n as_o belong_v to_o child_n and_o that_o we_o provoke_v not_o god_n to_o wrath_n by_o our_o sin_n and_o that_o we_o have_v a_o good_a conscience_n which_o they_o can_v not_o have_v that_o continewe_v still_o in_o open_a sin_n without_o repentance_n and_o final_o fear_v god_n and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n and_o yet_o trust_v not_o in_o that_o righteousness_n before_o god._n but_o only_o trust_v in_o jesu_n christ_n then_o shall_v thou_o be_v out_o of_o all_o peril_n for_o such_o faith_n only_o be_v able_a to_o prevail_v against_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n himself_o have_v command_v obedience_n he_o do_v allow_v it_o although_o it_o be_v unperfite_a for_o that_o be_v not_o alone_o by_o itself_o but_o be_v join_v with_o faith_n by_o the_o which_o we_o be_v pardon_v of_o that_o that_o be_v lack_v in_o obedience_n and_o so_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o be_v hear_v that_o we_o may_v learn_v thereby_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o true_a obedience_n this_o
