and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o perceive_v such_o fullness_n of_o god_n grace_n as_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v therefore_o s._n paul_n send_v we_o to_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n

and_o all_o our_o enemy_n now_o than_o we_o see_v s._n paul_n meaning_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o may_v be_v cast_v down_o and_o our_o faith_n at_o least_o wise_a sore_o shake_v if_o we_o shall_v

it_o be_v say_v so_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o too_o the_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o god_n be_v continual_o near_a at_o hand_n too_o we_o when_o we_o seek_v he_o in_o

man_n according_a too_o his_o own_o degree_n and_o measure_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o these_o two_o text_n agree_v very_o well_o namely_o that_o god_n have_v give_v christ_n a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n and_o also_o that_o he_o shall_v yield_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o why_o for_o we_o shall_v then_o see_v his_o heavenly_a majesty_n which_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o conceive_v as_o now_o because_o we_o be_v fleshly_a also_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o whereas_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o a_o mortal_a man_n he_o have_v be_v so_o glorify_v in_o his_o humane_a nature_n that_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o be_v god_n of_o oneself_o same_o substance_n with_o his_o father_n this_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v full_o know_v then_o whereas_o now_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a shadow_n of_o it_o furthermore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n be_v exalt_v by_o god_n his_o father_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o his_o advancement_n shall_v serve_v too_o our_o everlasting_a salvation_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o ix_o of_o isaiah_n he_o be_v call_v the_o father_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o also_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o faith_n which_o be_v ground_v in_o he_o be_v in_o

he_o add_v that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o too_o sit_v in_o the_o heavenly_a place_n with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n this_o serve_v too_o magnify_v the_o grace_n that_o we_o have_v hitherto_o

to_o sing_v god_n praise_n and_o too_o occupy_v ourselves_o therein_o and_o too_o apply_v all_o our_o endeavour_n thereunto_o but_o here_o be_v a_o great_a vehemency_n because_o of_o our_o coldness_n

and_o now_o he_o set_v down_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o god_n have_v not_o only_o love_v we_o but_o also_o glorify_v we_o in_o himself_o and_o that_o we_o be_v lift_v up_o from_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n aloft_o unto_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n where_o he_o have_v lodge_v we_o and_o give_v we_o seat_n among_o his_o angel_n see_v then_o that_o we_o hear_v this_o needs_o must_v we_o be_v

for_o as_o i_o say_v he_o know_v what_o be_v meet_v for_o we_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o take_v his_o promise_n precyze_o word_n for_o word_n in_o those_o caces_fw-la that_o be_v too_o say_v

too_o submit_v themselves_o too_o it_o and_o too_o bear_v the_o yoke_n that_o be_v so_o hard_a and_o heavy_a now_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o he_o do_v servant_n wrong_v therein_o and_o that_o he_o

lykeeh_o of_o afterward_o he_o must_v reform_v we_o and_o so_o guide_v and_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n as_o there_o may_v be_v one_o accord_n between_o our_o life_n and_o his_o law_n

whereas_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n damn_v he_o have_v vouchsafe_v too_o have_v we_o too_o be_v his_o child_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o overween_a as_o too_o think_v that_o we_o
