and_o we_o can_v abide_v firm_a and_o constant_a but_o this_o be_v not_o in_o god_n for_o that_o which_o be_v in_o he_o be_v of_o his_o essence_n and_o eternity_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n wherefore_o s._n john_n declare_v that_o this_o word_n be_v very_o &_o true_o god_n but_o as_o concern_v the_o word_n we_o must_v not_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v imagine_v a_o counsel_n or_o a_o

to_o mark_v the_o long_a distance_n and_o great_a difference_n that_o be_v between_o we_o and_o god_n similitude_n a_o apt_a similitude_n for_o if_o the_o heaven_n be_v much_o high_a than_o the_o earth_n much_o more_o must_v it_o needs_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v know_v and_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v more_o high_a than_o we_o yea_o there_o be_v no_o proportion_n or_o resemblance_n as_o it_o

such_o sort_n join_v to_o the_o soul_n that_o the_o soul_n can_v not_o be_v without_o understanding_n there_o be_v also_o a_o will_n not_o as_o when_o we_o have_v now_o one_o desire_n now_o another_o

notwithstanding_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o speech_n be_v here_o have_v of_o so_o high_a thing_n as_o of_o necessity_n all_o man_n understanding_n and_o wit_n must_v be_v abase_v and_o bring_v

that_o obey_v god_n voice_n must_v only_o be_v obey_v which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v leave_v us._n now_o furthermore_o we_o must_v also_o mark_v that_o some_o have_v be_v thrust_v forward_o by_o the_o devil_n have_v pervert_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o doctrine_n affirm_v that_o this_o word_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o some_o certain_a counsel_n deliberation_n and_o purpose_n that_o god_n

shall_v have_v purpose_v to_o dosome_n work_n and_o shall_v have_v conceive_v the_o same_o in_o his_o spirit_n or_o understanding_n leave_v not_o by_o so_o say_v everlastingness_n of_o essence_n or_o be_v to_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o we_o see_v already_o and_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o more_o large_o how_o and_o in_o what_o sort_n saint_n john_n call_v jesus_n christ_n that_o word_n of_o god_n thereby_o to_o declare_v and_o set_v out_o his_o deity_n as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v and_o that_o so_o it_o be_v behold_v a_o plain_a testimony_n of_o god_n himself_o for_o he_o say_v that_o this_o word_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n so_o than_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o it_o have_v be_v eternal_a and_o everlasting_a it_o be_v true_a 1.1_o gen._n 1.1_o that_o some_o will_v reply_v against_o it_o because_o moses_n say_v that_o god_n in_o the_o beginning_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o that_o now_o s._n john_n say_v that_o this_o word_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n that_o it_o seem_v hereby_o see_v that_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o heaven_n the_o earth_n and_o other_o creature_n have_v a_o beginning_n that_o we_o can_v not_o prove_v the_o eternity_n or_o everlastingnes_n of_o jesus_n christ_n because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o word_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n answer_v a_o objection_n answer_v but_o the_o answer_n be_v easy_a to_o wit_n that_o when_o moses_n speak_v of_o the_o beginning_n we_o be_v to_o remember_v &_o mark_v whereof_o he_o speak_v that_o be_v of_o heaven_n of_o earth_n and_o other_o thing_n that_o have_v indeed_o a_o beginning_n but_o now_o let_v we_o weigh_v and_o mark_v that_o which_o saint_n john_n say_v in_o the_o beginning_n say_v he_o be_v that_o word_n and_o where_o be_v the_o beginning_n very_o in_o god_n and_o what_o be_v god_n beginning_n i_o pray_v you_o certain_o he_o have_v none_o for_o otherwise_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v frame_v &_o make_v so_o that_o when_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o the_o begin_n of_o god_n we_o must_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o beginning_n as_o have_v not_o any_o time_n at_o all_o there_o be_v then_o much_o to_o be_v say_v and_o great_a difference_n also_o between_o moses_n his_o place_n when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n create_v all_o in_o the_o beginning_n and_o this_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o that_o word_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n for_o moses_n speak_v of_o the_o creature_n which_o have_v their_o beginning_n to_o be_v at_o a_o certain_a time_n but_o here_o saint_n john_n speak_v not_o of_o any_o thing_n but_o of_o god_n which_o can_v not_o be_v without_o his_o eternity_n and_o everlastingness_n wherefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o this_o beginning_n have_v not_o any_o beginning_n and_o hereby_o we_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v be_v always_o it_o be_v as_o much_o then_o 3.16_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o god_n eternal_a 1._o tim._n 3.16_o as_o if_o saint_n john_n have_v say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o eternal_a god_n who_o have_v appear_v and_o be_v make_v manifest_a unto_o we_o in_o the_o flesh_n as_o also_o saint_n paul_n speak_v thereof_o now_o he_o add_v afterwards_o this_o word_n be_v with_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v you_o must_v of_o necessity_n separate_v and_o distinguish_v he_o from_o all_o creature_n mark_v the_o purpose_n of_o the_o evangelist_n we_o must_v not_o so_o much_o as_o imagine_v say_v he_o that_o this_o word_n have_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o like_v unto_o creature_n we_o must_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n we_o must_v ascend_v above_o the_o earth_n and_o heaven_n when_o we_o think_v upon_o this_o word_n a_o man_n may_v demand_v answer_v a_o hard_a question_n answer_v before_o there_o be_v either_o heaven_n or_o earth_n be_v it_o possible_a that_o this_o word_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o beginning_n yea_o indeed_o for_o s._n john_n for_o a_o full_a answer_n seperate_v this_o word_n from_o all_o the_o creature_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v when_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o of_o this_o word_n you_o must_v come_v to_o god_n for_o it_o be_v in_o god_n let_v we_o then_o regard_n and_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o certain_a eternity_n or_o everlastingness_n which_o be_v not_o in_o the_o creature_n neither_o in_o the_o heaven_n nor_o in_o the_o earth_n nor_o in_o any_o thing_n whatsoever_o and_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o evangelist_n in_o this_o place_n set_v out_o unto_o we_o 2.5_o the_o father_n distincted_a from_o the_o son_n not_o in_o essence_n but_o in_o person_n 1._o cor._n 8.4.6_o 1._o tim._n 2.5_o a_o distinction_n between_o god_n and_o his_o word_n and_o what_o manner_n a_o one_o be_v this_o distinction_n it_o be_v not_o of_o their_o essence_n for_o he_o mean_v always_o that_o this_o word_n be_v god_n and_o we_o must_v conclude_v see_v that_o we_o have_v but_o one_o only_a god_n and_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o simple_a essence_n or_o be_v in_o he_o that_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v this_o eternal_a word_n whereof_o mention_n be_v make_v in_o this_o place_n have_v not_o be_v separate_v or_o sunder_v from_o god_n his_o father_n in_o respect_n of_o essence_n

and_o maintain_v thereby_o and_o that_o not_o we_o only_o but_o all_o the_o world_n also_o that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o only_o create_v at_o the_o begin_n by_o this_o word_n but_o also_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o or_o continue_v any_o long_o unless_o it_o be_v preserve_v in_o it_o own_o estate_n by_o the_o same_o mean_a and_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v say_v let_v we_o mark_v and_o keep_v fast_a these_o two_o thing_n as_o they_o be_v in_o this_o place_n point_v out_o unto_o we_o with_o the_o finger_n by_o s._n john_n christ_n all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n be_v uphold_v by_o christ_n in_o the_o first_o place_n than_o he_o declare_v unto_o we_o that_o nothing_o of_o that_o which_o be_v make_v be_v make_v without_o this_o word_n and_o how_o then_o mind_v he_o to_o accept_v i_o know_v not_o what_o that_o be_v not_o make_v seem_v it_o that_o he_o will_v say_v that_o the_o angel_n be_v not_o create_v no_o no_o he_o mean_v no_o such_o thing_n but_o mind_v to_o declare_v that_o we_o have_v nothing_o at_o all_o which_o depend_v not_o whole_o of_o god_n and_o have_v not_o it_o be_v altogether_o in_o he_o angel_n touch_v angel_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o angel_n have_v a_o very_a noble_a and_o excellent_a nature_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o subsist_v and_o have_v their_o be_v by_o this_o word_n and_o be_v found_v in_o it_o otherwise_o they_o can_v not_o continue_v and_o abide_v as_o also_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n but_o it_o be_v preserve_v by_o this_o very_a word_n now_o here_o we_o be_v teach_v and_o iustruct_v how_o great_a our_o poverty_n and_o wretchedness_n will_v be_v unless_o that_o god_n uphelde_v we_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o the_o psalmist_n speak_v 104.29_o psalm_n 104.29_o that_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n shall_v withdraw_v his_o spirit_n from_o we_o behold_v we_o return_v to_o powder_v and_o dust_n and_o vanysh_v away_o altogether_o it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o speak_v in_o that_o place_n of_o creature_n &_o bodily_a thing_n but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o we_o see_v how_o all_o the_o rest_n also_o be_v uphold_v by_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o this_o word_n now_o even_o as_o we_o can_v subsist_v or_o be_v but_o by_o that_o word_n of_o god_n so_o we_o must_v likewise_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o mean_n thereof_o that_o we_o have_v begin_v to_o have_v life_n and_o who_o be_v he_o that_o declare_v the_o same_o unto_o we_o the_o evangelist_n this_o be_v also_o the_o self_n same_o which_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o first_o chap._n to_o the_o

he_o uphold_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o word_n he_o use_v there_o the_o word_n word_n but_o yet_o in_o such_o a_o signification_n that_o he_o mean_v not_o only_o the_o power_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o also_o a_o certain_a wonderful_a disposition_n and_o a_o very_a fit_n and_o seemly_a order_n which_o he_o have_v set_v in_o the_o thing_n create_v because_o he_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n &_o we_o may_v behold_v he_o in_o all_o the_o creature_n because_o he_o uphold_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o virtue_n &_o power_n mark_v they_o how_o we_o have_v life_n and_o move_a and_o after_o the_o first_o day_n of_o our_o life_n we_o continue_v in_o the_o same_o to_o wit_n alone_o man_n life_n and_o the_o continuance_n thereof_o be_v from_o god_n alone_o because_o that_o god_n preserve_v we_o for_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o we_o must_v needs_o perish_v every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n if_o this_o be_v not_o that_o that_o word_n of_o god_n maintain_v us._n behold_v they_o in_o what_o sense_n the_o euangeliste_n say_v that_o that_o word_n be_v life_n that_o be_v that_o not_o only_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v by_o it_o but_o that_o they_o must_v of_o necessity_n also_o be_v

add_v this_o it_o be_v for_o 2._o cause_n the_o first_o be_v that_o after_o that_o we_o have_v know_v the_o might_n of_o god_n and_o the_o power_n of_o that_o his_o word_n both_o on_o high_a &_o beneath_o and_o every_o where_o we_o must_v then_o come_v to_o ourselves_o for_o this_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o we_o shall_v and_o that_o with_o a_o great_a diligence_n hehold_v that_o which_o

because_o that_o god_n do_v set_v out_o his_o most_o great_a and_o excellent_a power_n rather_o in_o we_o then_o in_o other_o creature_n man_n god_n power_n appear_v special_o in_o man_n god_n they_o
