doer_n if_o you_o ask_v god_n who_o shall_v dwell_v in_o the_o holy_a mountain_n 2._o he_o say_v the_o man_n which_o walk_v upright_o here_o be_v none_o but_o doer_n if_o you_o ask_v christ_n who_o

be_v bless_v he_o say_v blessed_n be_v they_o which_o keep_v the_o word_n of_o this_o book_n here_o be_v none_o but_o doer_n if_o you_o ask_v david_n who_o be_v bless_v he_o say_v the_o man_n be_v

who_o be_v bless_v 25._o he_o say_v the_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n be_v bless_v in_o his_o deed_n here_o be_v none_o but_o doer_n thus_o blessing_n and_o do_v run_v together_o lest_o any_o man_n shall_v look_v to_o be_v bless_v without_o obedience_n 21._o christ_n call_v love_n the_o great_a commandment_n 13._o but_o solomon_n call_v obedience_n the_o end_n of_o all_o as_o though_o without_o

now_o we_o be_v good_a son_n see_v we_o maintain_v a_o preacher_n among_o us._n but_o michah_n be_v not_o bless_v for_o a_o levite_n nor_o you_o for_o a_o preacher_n but_o as_o you_o will_v have_v we_o do_v as_o we_o teach_v so_o god_n will_v have_v you_o do_v as_o you_o hear_v for_o you_o be_v no_o more_o save_v for_o hear_v than_o we_o be_v for_o speak_v when_o god_n create_v the_o tree_n 1._o he_o command_v it_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n so_o when_o he_o creat_v faith_n he_o command_v it_o to_o bring_v forth_o work_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v a_o lively_a faith_n when_o our_o saviour_n will_v prove_v himself_o unto_o john_n to_o be_v the_o true_a messiah_n indeed_o he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n tell_v john_n what_o thing_n you_o have_v hear_v and_o see_v matth._n 11._o 4._o not_o only_o hear_v but_o see_v so_o if_o we_o will_v prove_v ourselves_o to_o be_v christ_n kinsman_n indeed_o we_o must_v work_v that_o thing_n which_o may_v be_v see_v as_o well_o as_o hear_v john_n be_v not_o only_o call_v the_o voice_n of_o a_o crier_n luke_n the_o seven_o chapter_n and_o two_o &_o twenty_o verse_n but_o aburning_a lamp_n matthew_n chap._n 3._o verse_n 3._o which_o may_v be_v see_v so_o all_o which_o be_v cry_v voice_n must_v be_v burn_a lamp_n james_n do_v not_o say_v let_v i_o hear_v thy_o faith_n 18_o but_o let_v i_o see_v thy_o faith_n as_o the_o angel_n put_v on_o the_o shape_n of_o man_n 2._o that_o abraham_n may_v see_v they_o so_o faith_n must_v put_v on_o work_n that_o the_o world_n may_v see_v it_o the_o work_n which_o i_o do_v say_v christ_n bear_v witness_n of_o i_o 16._o so_o the_o work_n which_o we_o do_v shall_v bear_v witness_n of_o us._n therefore_o christ_n link_v faith_n and_o repentance_n together_o repent_v and_o believe_v the_o gospel_n mark_v the_o first_o chapter_n verse_n fifteen_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o which_o christ_n have_v join_v let_v no_o man_n separate_v mark_v chap._n 10._o ver_fw-la 9_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o christ_n preach_v a_o great_a press_n hear_v his_o friend_n and_o kinsfolk_n interrupt_v and_o christ_n again_o withstand_v the_o interruption_n by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o spirit_n the_o devil_n have_v to_o hinder_v one_o sermon_n therefore_o no_o marvel_n though_o he_o cause_v so_o many_o to_o be_v put_v to_o silence_n no_o marvel_n though_o he_o stand_v so_o against_o a_o learned_a ministry_n no_o marvel_n though_o he_o raise_v up_o such_o slander_n upon_o preacher_n no_o marvel_n though_o he_o write_v so_o many_o book_n against_o the_o christian_a government_n in_o the_o church_n no_o marvel_v though_o he_o make_v so_o many_o nonresidents_a no_o marvel_v though_o he_o ordain_v so_o many_o dumb_a priest_n for_o these_o make_v he_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n the_o devil_n be_v afraid_a that_o one_o sermon_n will_v convert_v we_o and_o we_o be_v not_o move_v with_o twenty_o so_o the_o devil_n think_v better_a of_o we_o than_o we_o be_v again_o by_o this_o you_o may_v learn_v how_o to_o resist_v and_o withstand_v temptation_n whether_o it_o be_v thy_o father_n which_o tempt_v thou_o thy_o mother_n which_o tempt_v thou_o or_o thy_o brother_n which_o tempt_v thou_o or_o thy_o sister_n which_o tempt_v or_o thy_o kinsman_n which_o tempt_v or_o ruler_n which_o tempt_v or_o master_n which_o tempt_v or_o wife_n which_o tempt_v as_o christ_n will_v not_o know_v his_o mother_n against_o his_o father_n so_o thou_o shall_v not_o know_v any_o father_n or_o mother_n or_o brother_n or_o sister_n or_o friend_n or_o kinsman_n or_o master_n or_o child_n or_o wife_n against_o god_n if_o the_o mother_n suit_n may_v be_v refuse_v sometime_o a_o noble_a man_n letter_n may_v be_v refuse_v too_o he_o that_o can_v turn_v his_o hindrance_n to_o a_o furtherance_n as_o christ_n do_v here_o may_v make_v use_n of_o every_o thing_n again_o by_o this_o you_o may_v learn_v how_o to_o choose_v your_o friend_n as_o christ_n count_v none_o his_o kinsman_n but_o such_o as_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o do_v it_o so_o we_o shall_v make_v none_o our_o familiar_n but_o such_o as_o christ_n count_v his_o kinsman_n again_o you_o may_v see_v the_o difference_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o world_n christ_n call_v the_o godly_a his_o kinsman_n be_v they_o never_o so_o poor_a and_o we_o scorn_v to_o call_v the_o poor_a our_o kinsman_n be_v they_o never_o so_o honest_a so_o proud_a be_v the_o servant_n above_o his_o master_n again_o by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v how_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v love_v for_o when_o he_o call_v we_o his_o mother_n he_o show_v we_o the_o way_n to_o love_v he_o as_o a_o mother_n for_o indeed_o he_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o his_o mother_n and_o his_o brethren_n too_o again_o by_o this_o all_o vaunt_a and_o boast_v of_o kindred_n be_v cut_v off_o glory_n not_o in_o that_o thou_o have_v a_o gentleman_n to_o thy_o father_n glory_n not_o that_o thou_o have_v a_o knight_n to_o thy_o brother_n but_o glory_n that_o thou_o have_v the_o lord_n to_o thy_o brother_n 16._o he_o which_o call_v abraham_n his_o father_n fry_v in_o hell_n because_o god_n be_v not_o his_o father_n if_o marie_n may_v not_o be_v proud_a of_o such_o a_o son_n as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n much_o less_o may_v you_o brag_v of_o any_o friend_n or_o son_n that_o you_o have_v again_o 2._o by_o this_o you_o may_v know_v whether_o you_o be_v kin_n to_o christ_n as_o those_o priest_n be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o temple_n which_o can_v not_o count_v their_o genealogy_n from_o aaron_n so_o they_o shall_v be_v exclude_v out_o of_o heaven_n which_o can_v reckon_v their_o pedigree_n from_o christ_n here_o be_v the_o arm_n now_o whereby_o you_o may_v show_v of_o what_o house_n you_o come_v if_o you_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o do_v it_o than_o christ_n say_v unto_o you_o as_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o these_o be_v my_o mother_n and_o my_o brother_n and_o my_o sister_n you_o woman_n be_v his_o sister_n and_o you_o man_n be_v his_o brother_n and_o if_o you_o be_v christ_n brethren_n then_o be_v you_o god_n son_n and_o if_o you_o be_v god_n son_n then_o be_v you_o his_o heir_n for_o all_o god_n son_n be_v call_v heir_n rom._n 8._o 7._o last_o by_o this_o you_o may_v know_v the_o devil_n kinsman_n and_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v 44._o you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n show_v that_o the_o devil_n
there_o be_v of_o trouble_n which_o come_v from_o sin_n as_o one_o heavy_a messenger_n come_v to_o job_n one_o after_o another_o 16._o so_o now_o we_o be_v not_o in_o paradise_n but_o in_o the_o wilderness_n 19_o we_o must_v look_v for_o one_o trouble_n after_o another_o therefore_o affliction_n be_v call_v water_n because_o as_o one_o wave_n fall_v upon_o another_o so_o one_o trouble_n fall_v upon_o the_o head_n of_o another_o as_o a_o bear_n come_v to_o david_n after_o a_o lion_n 34_o and_o a_o giant_n after_o a_o bear_n and_o a_o king_n after_o a_o giant_n and_o philistine_n after_o the_o king_n so_o when_o they_o have_v fight_v with_o poverty_n they_o shall_v fight_v with_o envy_n when_o they_o have_v fight_v with_o envy_n they_o shall_v fight_v with_o infamy_n when_o they_o have_v fight_v with_o infamy_n they_o shall_v fight_v with_o sickness_n like_o a_o labourer_n which_o be_v never_o out_o of_o work_n this_o you_o see_v the_o righteous_a in_o trouble_n like_o the_o israelite_n in_o exile_n now_o the_o lord_n come_v like_o moses_n to_o deliver_v they_o 10._o adversity_n seek_v out_o the_o promise_n the_o promise_n seek_v out_o faith_n faith_n seek_v out_o prayer_n then_o god_n hear_v and_o mercy_n answer_v all_o this_o while_n christ_n seem_v to_o sleep_v as_o he_o do_v in_o the_o ship_n now_o he_o rebuke_n the_o wind_n and_o wave_n 26_o and_o trouble_n fly_v before_o he_o like_o a_o troop_n of_o wolf_n before_o the_o shepherd_n as_o he_o ask_v the_o adultress_n where_o be_v thy_o accuser_n and_o she_o say_v they_o be_v go_v so_o he_o may_v ask_v his_o patient_n where_o be_v your_o trouble_n and_o they_o may_v say_v they_o be_v go_v the_o sun_n rise_v and_o the_o mist_n vanish_v yet_o say_v david_n god_n be_v good_a to_o all_o that_o be_v pure_a in_o heart_n that_o be_v he_o remember_v they_o while_o he_o afflict_v they_o and_o be_v prepare_v a_o issue_n while_o the_o cross_n prepare_v they_o when_o christ_n hear_v they_o say_v he_o who_o thou_o love_v be_v sick_a he_o answer_v this_o sickness_n be_v not_o to_o death_n joh._n 11._o 3._o so_o when_o it_o may_v be_v say_v he_o who_o god_n love_v be_v sick_a than_o it_o may_v be_v say_v this_o sickness_n be_v not_o unto_o death_n &_o though_o it_o be_v to_o the_o first_o death_n yet_o not_o to_o the_o second_o 3._o who_o will_v think_v when_o jonas_n be_v in_o the_o sea_n that_o he_o shall_v preach_v at_o niniveh_n 4._o who_o will_v think_v when_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v in_o the_o forest_n that_o he_o shall_v reign_v again_o in_o babel_n who_o will_v think_v when_o joseph_n be_v banish_v of_o his_o brethren_n that_o his_o brethren_n shall_v seek_v unto_o he_o like_o his_o servant_n who_o will_v think_v when_o job_n scrape_v his_o sore_n upon_o the_o dunghill_n 10_o all_o his_o house_n be_v burn_v all_o his_o ●attell_n steal_v &_o all_o his_o child_n dead_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v rich_a than_o ever_o he_o be_v 21._o these_o be_v the_o act_n of_o mercy_n which_o make_v the_o righteous_a sing_v the_o lord_n have_v triumph_v valiant_o this_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o righteous_a 6._o as_o god_n say_v you_o son_n of_o jacob_n be_v not_o consume_v so_o they_o answer_v again_o 6._o we_o be_v not_o consume_v therefore_o paul_n say_v we_o be_v in_o distress_n but_o we_o be_v not_o forsake_v 6._o as_o christ_n rise_v out_o of_o his_o grave_n so_o we_o shall_v rise_v out_o of_o trouble_n and_o when_o the_o gold_n be_v fine_v the_o fire_n shall_v hold_v it_o no_o long_o when_o jesus_n be_v in_o banishment_n with_o mary_n &_o joseph_n at_o last_o the_o angel_n come_v and_o say_v 3_o they_o be_v dead_a which_o seek_v the_o child_n life_n so_o when_o the_o day_n of_o our_o banishment_n and_o scarcity_n &_o bondage_n and_o sickness_n be_v end_v 20._o at_o last_o tiding_n shall_v come_v that_o our_o trouble_n be_v dead_a and_o then_o the_o righteous_a shall_v look_v up_o like_o moses_n when_o he_o be_v past_o the_o sea_n and_o see_v all_o
