hold_v plea_n as_o much_o as_o they_o listen_v but_o if_o they_o enter_v into_o themselves_o and_o ask_v their_o own_o conscience_n you_o shall_v see_v they_o condemn_v and_o confound_v without_o any_o nay_o when_o a_o man_n have_v babble_v what_o he_o can_v so_o as_o he_o think_v he_o have_v win_v the_o goal_n by_o say_v that_o he_o have_v no_o free_a will_n of_o his_o own_o nor_o ability_n too_o resist_v god_n there_o need_v no_o more_o but_o this_o one_o word_n what_o think_v thou_o too_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o provoke_v thou_o too_o evil_a ho_o it_o be_v the_o devil_n thou_o say_v well_o but_o yet_o mark_v a_o little_a whether_o that_o do_v so_o full_o excuse_v thou_o as_o that_o thou_o perceive_v not_o right_a well_o that_o thou_o wart_n stir_v up_o and_o drive_v too_o it_o by_o thine_o own_o selfmove_n know_v thou_o not_o that_o the_o wellspring_n and_o root_n of_o the_o mischief_n be_v in_o thyself_o when_o thou_o be_v so_o rebellious_a against_o god_n that_o thy_o thought_n be_v full_a of_o untruth_n and_o unbelief_n and_o that_o so_o much_o the_o more_o because_o thy_o lust_n be_v out_o of_o square_a and_o imbattel_v against_o god_n and_o his_o righteousness_n even_o too_o make_v war_n with_o he_o when_o thou_o see_v all_o this_o must_v thou_o yet_o hold_v plea_n further_o with_o he_o so_o then_o let_v we_o not_o seek_v any_o start_a hole_n sing_v we_o carry_v a_o sufficient_a judge_n with_o we_o even_o within_o we_o namely_o sing_v that_o every_o of_o our_o own_o conscience_n rebuke_v we_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o s._n paul_n amed_z at_o in_o this_o strain_v and_o thereby_o we_o also_o be_v war●ed_v not_o too_o presume_v aught_o at_o all_o on_o ourselves_o but_o too_o bridle_v all_o our_o sense_n and_o imagination_n and_o all_o the_o

apply_v ourselves_o too_o the_o serve_v of_o god._n and_o s._n paul_n say_v express_o that_o those_o who_o god_n have_v quicken_v be_v by_o that_o mean_v make_v fellow_n with_o our_o lord_n jesus_n chryst_n for_o it_o be_v even_o he_o in_o who_o they_o have_v their_o life_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we●_z ought_v too_o seek_v it_o in_o god_n be_v howbeit_o forasmuch_o as_o that_o be_v too_o high_a for_o we_o so_o as_o we_o can_v come_v at_o it_o no_o nor_o any_o thing_n near_o it_o therefore_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v call_v the_o way_n 6._o and_o he_o offer_v himself_o and_o tarri_v not_o till_o we_o seek_v he_o as_o though_o he_o be_v far_o from_o we_o but_o reach_v out_o his_o arm_n too_o allure_v we_o too_o he_o insomuch_o that_o in_o his_o gospel_n he_o say_v if_o any_o man_n be_v athirst_a let_v he_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o drink_v and_o this_o be_v fulfil_v in_o his_o person_n 37._o as_o have_v be_v say_v erewhiles_o so_o then_o let_v this_o speech_n be_v mark_v where_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o those_o which_o be_v dead_a afore_o be_v quicken_v again_o by_o jesus_n christ._n and_o here_o we_o see_v yet_o better_a the_o thing_n that_o i_o touch_v short_o this_o morning_n which_o be_v that_o s._n paul_n speak_v not_o of_o a_o visible_a death_n whereof_o man_n may_v judge_v by_o outward_a sight_n but_o of_o the_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o our_o soul_n for_o he_o find_v fault_n with_o we_o all_o how_o then_o may_v we_o attain_v too_o the_o heavenly_a life_n how_o shall_v we_o be_v raze_v &_o quicken_v again_o to_o possess_v the_o heritage_n that_o be_v promise_v we_o we_o see_v on_o the_o contrary_a part_n how_o we_o be_v subject_a too_o as_o many_o misery_n as_o can_v be_v this_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o newness_n of_o life_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o in_o other_o place_n now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o this_o life_n be_v not_o yet_o perfeet_n in_o we_o there_o be_v but_o a_o little_a entrance_n of_o it_o which_o serve_v too_o lead_v we_o further_o and_o too_o bring_v we_o too_o the_o end_n which_o shall_v be_v when_o we_o be_v come_v too_o the_o full_a glory_n that_o he_o speak_v of_o here_o and_o we_o see_v also_o how_o s._n paul_n set_v himself_o forth_o for_o a_o example_n allege_v that_o he_o have_v give_v over_o all_o thing_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n yea_o and_o even_o the_o fond_a opinion_n which_o he_o have_v of_o his_o own_o righteousness_n insomuch_o that_o although_o man_n esteem_v he_o as_o a_o little_a angel_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o know_v that_o it_o behove_v he_o too_o be_v save_v by_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o jesus_n christ._n and_o in_o stead_n of_o all_o his_o honour_n and_o riches_n he_o have_v suffer_v so_o many_o reproach_n so_o many_o torture_n so_o

if_o s._n paul_n say_v i_o have_v have_v all_o these_o consideration_n with_o he_o he_o have_v become_v cold_a for_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n with_o we_o too_o shrink_v away_o when_o we_o once_o think_v with_o ourselves_o 〈◊〉_d i_o have_v do_v enough_o for_o my_o part_n now_o let_v other_o march_v on_o in_o their_o array_n and_o so_o every_o of_o we_o woold_v take_v his_o leave_n when_o he_o have_v some_o thing_n or_o other_o i_o ●ot_n not_o what_o but_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o he_o forget_v the_o time_n past_a too_o the_o intent_n too_o cut_v of_o occasion_n of_o slothfulness_n which_o may_v come_v in_o his_o head_n and_o say_v that_o he_o strain_v himself_o forward_o and_o hold_v his_o arm_n open_v too_o attain_v unto_o it_o and_o how_o long_a time_n do_v s._n paul_n strain_v himself_o forward_o even_o too_o the_o end_n then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o our_o glory_n shall_v never_o be_v perfect_a that_o be_v too_o say_v we_o shall_v never_o thorough_o enjoy_v the_o glory_n that_o we_o wait_v for_o until_o the_o end_n and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o always_o too_o take_v warning_n of_o our_o own_o wretchedness_n too_o mourn_v for_o it_o before_o god_n and_o too_o confess_v that_o we_o be_v behold_v too_o his_o only_a goodness_n for_o all_o thing_n now_o then_o howsoever_o we_o fare_v we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v reform_v unto_o newness_n of_o life_n by_o god_n spirit_n and_o that_o although_o we_o dwell_v among_o unbeliever_n &_o be_v subject_a too_o many_o misery_n yea_o and_o have_v sin_n dwell_v in_o we_o yet_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o but_o he_o feel_v that_o the_o handsell_n which_o god_n have_v give_v we_o of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n be_v not_o vain_a nor_o unprofitable_a if_o any_o man_n allege_v that_o before_o such_o time_n as_o

life_n come_v in_o question_n then_o let_v man_n calp_n their_o hand_n at_o we_o on_o all_o syd_n yet_o be_v we_o but_o dead_a man_n when_o god_n lay_v the_o bridle_n loose_a in_o our_o neck_n and_o suffer_v we_o too_o walk_v after_o our_o own_o fancy_n and_o like_n man_n may_v well_o have_v some_o reason_n but_o what_o can_v it_o do_v so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o own_o nature_n it_o will_v fight_v against_o god_n and_o against_o all_o truth_n yet_o notwithstanding_o man_n say_v they_o have_v a_o will_n howbeit_o that_o the_o same_o will_v be_v wicked_a true_a it_o be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o that_o it_o have_v no_o strength_n
upon_o that_o string_n but_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o humble_a ourselves_o with_o a_o good_a will_n and_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o saint_n paul_n blame_v man_n nature_n show_v that_o all_o of_o we_o from_o the_o great_a too_o the_o least_o be_v plunge_a even_o too_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n until_o god_n pluck_v we_o back_o again_o and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o consider_v all_o the_o enormity_n that_o be_v do_v through_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o conclude_v that_o we_o ourselves_o shall_v do_v as_o much_o if_o god_n show_v we_o not_o his_o mercy_n and_o let_v the_o same_o stir_v we_o up_o too_o bridle_v ourselves_o lest_o we_o overshoot_v ourselves_o at_o some_o time_n and_o see_v it_o have_v please_v god_n too_o draw_v we_o unto_o he_o let_v we_o not_o turn_v back_o again_o too_o meddle_v with_o the_o lewdness_n of_o the_o unbeliever_n and_o no_o wonder_n though_o they_o stumble_v &_o tumble_v and_o reel_v too_o &_o fro_o for_o they_o have_v no_o light_n to_o direct_v they_o by_o but_o our_o lord_n shine_v upon_o us●_n by_o his_o word_n and_o give_v we_o eye_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o eschew_v too_o be_v like_o they_o as_z s._n paul_n exhort_v we_o here_o heereuntoo_o he_o add_v the_o top_n of_o all_o mischief_n which_o be_v that_o man_n go_v astray_o after_o their_o own_o kind_n continue_v in_o go_v outward_a from_o worse_a too_o worse_a and_o foade_v themselves_o with_o flattery_n whereby_o they_o cast_v their_o conscience_n into_o such_o a_o sleep_n as_o they_o feel_v no_o more_o any_o remorse_n or_o grief_n and_o that_o be_v the_o high_a way_n too_o make_v they_o utter_o past_o recovery_n now_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o learn_v here_o too_o prevent_v such_o vengeance_n of_o god_n which_o ought_v too_o make_v we_o quake_v and_o when_o we_o hear_v that_o such_o as_o abide_v still_o in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o overshoot_v themselves_o so_o far_o as_o too_o be_v without_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n and_o too_o become_v as_o brute_n beast_n void_a of_o discretion_n too_o be_v move_v either_o with_o life_n or_o death_n or_o with_o any_o manner_n of_o feel_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n health_n let_v we_o a_o god_n name_n walk_v in_o fear_n and_o awe_n and_o bewail_v our_o sin_n every_o hour_n early_o and_o late_o that_o we_o be_v not_o harden_v after_o that_o fashion_n for_o we_o see_v how_o they_o that_o grow_v beastly_a after_o that_o sort_n do_v gather_v such_o a_o hard_a heartedness_n as_o a_o man_n can_v bow_v they_o after_o they_o have_v once_o get_v such_o a_o boldness_n in_o give_v themselves_o unto_o evil_n thus_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n let_v we_o be_v right_a well_o assure_v that_o god_n revenge_v himself_o after_o a_o terrible_a manner_n against_o all_o such_o as_o foade_v themselves_o in_o their_o vice_n and_o take_v inordinate_a leave_n too_o do_v what_o they_o listen_v so_o that_o in_o the_o end_n they_o become_v brutish_a even_o as_o ass_n and_o dog_n and_o now_o for_o the_o second_o point_n if_o god_n use_v such_o rigour_n towards_o those_o which_o be_v never_o yet_o train_v too_o the_o gospel_n what_o will_v he_o do_v to_o we_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n a_o long_a time_n and_o yet_o we_o continue_v still_o like_o those_o that_o never_o taste_v of_o good_a instruction_n do_v we_o not_o think_v that_o the_o punishment_n shall_v be_v more_o horrible_a and_o dreadful_a upon_o we_o like_a as_o when_o s._n paul_n declare_v in_o the_o first_o too_o the_o roman_n that_o god_n give_v man_n over_o into_o disordinate_a and_o shameful_a lust_n so_o as_o they_o be_v utter_o past_o all_o shame_n he_o speak_v express_o of_o the_o heathen_a and_o unbeliever_n who_o have_v none_o other_o knowledge_n of_o god_n than_o by_o the_o sky_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o creature_n they_o have_v none_o other_o help_n than_o that_o great_a book_n whereby_o too_o glorify_v god_n and_o yet_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o do_v it_o not_o therefore_o be_v they_o condemn_v after_o that_o manner_n but_o now_o can_v we_o have_v no_o such_o excuse_n as_o those_o silly_a soul_n have_v we_o can_v say_v we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o discern_v what_o be_v good_a because_o we_o be_v blind_v by_o adam_n sin_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n in_o we_o for_o god_n have_v give_v we_o his_o word_n 105._o which_o be_v just_o call_v a_o lamp_n too_o guide_v we_o by_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n where_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n declare_v that_o he_o be_v our_o guide_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o provoke_v god_n wilful_o by_o disaul_v the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n whereas_o we_o shall_v follow_v it_o of_o which_o sort_n there_o be_v many_o even_o at_o this_o day_n who_o seek_v too_o wallow_v in_o all_o lewdness_n and_o disorder_n and_o despise_v god_n open_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o saint_n paul_n have_v not_o without_o cause_n set_v down_o here_o the_o top_n of_o all_o mischief_n of_o purpose_n to_o show_v we_o thereby_o what_o wage_n god_n will_v pay_v too_o all_o such_o as_o yield_v not_o to_o he_o in_o dew_n time_n and_o place_n but_o rather_o take_v liberty_n of_o all_o naughtiness_n as_o though_o they_o be_v escape_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n let_v we_o then_o be_v afraid_a too_o overshoot_v ourselves_o so_o far_o and_o then_o although_o we_o have_v wander_v far_o afore_o god_n can_v skill_v well_o enough_o too_o draw_v we_o to_o he_o let_v we_o be_v afraid_a lest_o god_n shall_v execute_v the_o say_a vengeance_n upon_o we_o 14._o as_o well_o as_o upon_o they_o according_a too_o this_o say_n of_o solomon_n that_o when_o the_o wicked_a man_n be_v come_v too_o extremity_n he_o despise_v all_o that_o be_v too_o say_v he_o regard_v neither_o life_n nor_o death_n but_o fling_v forth_o like_o a_o brute_n beast_n therefore_o let_v we_o quake_v at_o such_o threaten_n for_o fear_v lest_o god_n execute_v they_o upon_o we_o when_o we_o can_v abide_v too_o be_v rebuke_v for_o our_o vice_n and_o contrariwyze_v let_v we_o pratice_v the_o doctrine_n of_o solomon_n where_o he_o say_v 14._o happy_a be_v the_o man_n who_o heart_n prick_v he_o &_o quicken_v he_o up_o night_n and_o day_n let_v we_o learn_v then_o too_o be_v our_o own_o solicitor_n and_o too_o touch_v ourselves_o for_o our_o vice_n and_o when_o we_o enter_v into_o they_o let_v we_o be_v abash_v at_o they_o and_o cast_v down_o and_o condemn_v ourselves_o until_o god_n have_v relieve_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n after_o that_o manner_n must_v we_o put_v this_o doctrine_n of_o s._n paul_n in_o ure_n too_o the_o end_n that_o when_o god_n have_v once_o knit_v we_o too_o he_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o give_v we_o life_n we_o may_v take_v good_a heed_n that_o that_o life_n be_v not_o deface_v and_o quench_v in_o we_o through_o our_o own_o lewdness_n and_o unthankfulness_n again_o that_o be_v mind_v too_o continue_v in_o this_o doctrine_n may_v learn_v first_o of_o all_o too_o humble_a ourselves_o for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o humility_n will_v cause_v we_o too_o resort_v unto_o god_n and_o second_o that_o our_o humility_n be_v match_v with_o wareness_n so_o as_o we_o be_v not_o reckless_a too_o flatter_v ourselves_o but_o that_o through_o the_o same_o wareness_n we_o strain_v ourselves_o too_o the_o

always_o win_v somewhat_o of_o ourselves_o be_v it_o never_o so_o little_a so_o as_o it_o may_v continual_o appear_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n work_v in_o we_o and_o make_v his_o grace_n

if_o we_o once_o know_v that_o there_o be_v not_o only_o some_o one_o naughty_a touch_n but_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o evil_n in_o we_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o mislike_n of_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

of_o itself_o to_o save_v we_o for_o by_o that_o mean_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v as_o good_a as_o thrust_v away_o so_o as_o they_o make_v none_o account_v of_o he_o for_o they_o stand_v

more_o therefore_o do_v it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n too_o bear_v this_o lesson_n in_o mind_n that_o too_o apply_v the_o sacrament_n too_o a_o right_a use_n and_o too_o such_o use_n as_o god_n allow_v and_o ordain_v they_o must_v guide_v we_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n like_a as_o in_o baptism_n we_o see_v but_o the_o water_n but_o thereby_o we_o must_v be_v lift_v up_o high_o to_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o water_n that_o make_v we_o clean_o but_o that_o it_o be_v only_o a_o warrant_n of_o the_o wash_n that_o be_v

before_o out_o eye_n be_v a_o withdraw_n of_o ourselves_o from_o jesus_n christ._n our_o faith_n therefore_o must_v be_v lift_v up_o and_o convey_v too_o he_o in_o who_o all_o the_o part_n of_o our_o

as_o you_o will_v say_v a_o unhallow_v of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v hallow_v too_o our_o benefit_n if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o visible_a sign_n we_o

too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n in_o he_o we_o shall_v find_v our_o wash_n and_o cleanse_v it_o seem_v that_o that_o ought_v too_o suffice_v we_o and_o that_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n be_v but_o a_o veil_n too_o keep_v we_o from_o come_v unto_o jesus_n christ._n yea_o but_o let_v we_o see_v a_o little_a what_o our_o own_o rudeness_n be_v if_o we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o angel_n we_o shall_v no_o more_o need_v this_o outward_a baptism_n than_o the_o angel_n do_v but_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v earthly_a and_o it_o be_v hard_o for_o we_o too_o attain_v unto_o god_n and_o the_o

prayer_n shall_v not_o be_v worthy_a too_o be_v receive_v but_o rather_o be_v foul_a filthy_a and_o stink_a if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n hallow_v they_o not_o by_o his_o holiness_n and_o
