the_o third_o testimony_n for_o thou_o say_v god_n send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o earth_n who_o righteousness_n do_v superabounde_v wheresoever_o sin_n do_v abound_v here_o i_o can_v not_o enough_o marvel_v at_o thine_o impudency_n for_o i_o read_v not_o in_o paul_n wheresoever_o sin_n abound_v but_o where_o sin_n abound_v that_o there_o abound_v grace_n but_o indeed_o the_o apostle_n purpose_n in_o these_o word_n be_v not_o to_o show_v how_o large_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n extend_v that_o be_v whether_o it_o belong_v to_o all_o or_o to_o certain_a only_a but_o rather_o to_o she_o we_o this_o one_o thing_n that_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n do_v not_o therefore_o exceed_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n that_o any_o shall_v be_v justify_v in_o it_o but_o of_o the_o contrary_a that_o man_n may_v the_o rather_o be_v hold_v convict_v and_o guilty_a but_o when_o man_n be_v toil_v in_o that_o miserable_a condition_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v appear_v which_o shall_v abound_v abone_z sin_n and_o shall_v bring_v the_o great_a benefit_n to_o man_n by_o so_o much_o how_o much_o more_o be_v the_o bondage_n of_o sin_n which_o have_v increase_v by_o the_o law_n who_o may_v not_o think_v that_o thou_o haste_v loss_n all_o judgement_n of_o mind_n when_o thou_o wryte_v these_o to_o that_o end_n the_o thou_o may_v prone_a that_o god_n will_v that_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v sane_z now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o place_n of_o john_n wherein_o thou_o think_v it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o christ_n do_v lighten_v all_o that_o come_v into_o this_o world_n but_o who_o will_v grant_v thou_o this_o for_o by_o the_o name_n of_o light_n there_o i_o grant_v that_o christ_n be_v signify_v but_o in_o respect_n of_o creation_n not_o redemption_n for_o john_n describe_v the_o excellency_n of_o the_o eternal_a word_n by_o who_o power_n and_o goodness_n see_v all_o thing_n be_v create_v and_o man_n themselves_o especial_o be_v endue_v with_o the_o light_n of_o understanding_n do_v line_n yet_o because_o this_o light_n have_v shine_v to_o the_o blind_a the_o blind_a have_v not_o acknowledge_v the_o light_n this_o when_o john_n have_v say_v in_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o chapter_n afterwards_o intersert_v mention_n of_o john_n baptist_n he_o urge_v the_o same_o in_o two_o verse_n of_o the_o same_o chapter_n that_o be_v the_o nine_o and_o ten_o then_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o eleven_o verse_n he_o come_v to_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n that_o this_o be_v the_o natural_a meaning_n of_o this_o place_n i_o hope_v they_o will_v grant_v i_o whosoever_o have_v diligent_o weigh_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v there_o for_o over_o and_o abone_z that_o this_o be_v the_o order_n of_o speech_n say_v i_o pray_v thou_o by_o what_o mean_v at_o the_o last_o will_v thou_o prone_a that_o they_o be_v all_o lighten_v of_o christ_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n be_v it_o because_o they_o be_v all_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n but_o john_n add_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o receive_v of_o his_o but_o of_o a_o certain_a who_o because_o they_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v therefore_o believe_v furthermore_o thou_o can_v not_o deny_v that_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n be_v receive_v only_o by_o faith_n but_o faith_n come_v by_o grace_n and_o not_o by_o nature_n nor_o be_v it_o give_v to_o all_o man_n all_o therefore_o be_v not_o lighten_v of_o christ_n that_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o will_v thou_o flee_v to_o that_o universal_a preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o will_v say_v that_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v offer_v to_o all_o albeit_o very_o many_o will_v refuse_v it_o be_v offer_v but_o even_o this_o can_v never_o be_v say_v of_o every_o man_n for_o tell_v i_o before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n how_o many_o year_n pass_v in_o which_o as_o paul_n say_v god_n suffer_v the_o gentile_n to_o walk_v in_o their_o own_o way_n where_o be_v then_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o come_v among_o the_o gentile_n yet_o i_o grant_v that_o they_o all_o have_v so_o much_o light_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n as_o be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v they_o without_o excuse_n see_v their_o conscience_n be_v to_o they_o for_o a_o law_n and_o by_o the_o sight_n of_o visible_a thing_n they_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v recall_v from_o idolatry_n but_o we_o ask_v of_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n where_o with_o thou_o say_v that_o all_o man_n that_o be_v every_o man_n be_v lighten_v at_o the_o least_o outward_o but_o i_o affirm_v that_o before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v not_o lighten_v with_o the_o beam_n of_o this_o light_n neither_o inward_o nor_o outward_o but_o after_o come_v to_o christ_n i_o grant_v in_o deed_n that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v disperse_v into_o all_o land_n but_o be_v thou_o so_o sottish_a that_o thou_o think_v that_o this_o benefit_n belong_v to_o every_o man_n and_o not_o rather_o to_o certain_a that_o be_v to_o the_o elect_v of_o all_o people_n look_v now_o at_o the_o least_o what_o be_v the_o countenance_n of_o the_o world_n and_o see_v how_o many_o there_o be_v in_o the_o universal_a compass_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o die_v before_o they_o hear_v never_o so_o little_a report_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o lord_n therefore_o cruel_a to_o you_o in_o deed_n as_o i_o see_v when_o a_o certain_a fellow_n even_o of_o thy_o familiar_n in_o a_o little_a book_n which_o he_o publish_v three_o year_n past_a of_o the_o largeness_n of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n have_v rather_o defend_v that_o they_o be_v nevertheless_o sane_z by_o christ_n to_o who_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o preach_v than_o think_v that_o so_o many_o man_n be_v enthral_v to_o eternal_a torment_n but_o we_o very_o have_v learn_v not_o to_o place_v health_n any_o other_o where_o than_o in_o christ_n nor_o christ_n elsewhere_o but_o in_o the_o faithful_a and_o the_o faythful_n house_n so_o far_o be_v it_o off_o that_o therefore_o we_o shall_v accuse_v god_n of_o any_o cueltye_n that_o of_o the_o contrary_n we_o say_v not_o that_o he_o be_v cruel_a if_o he_o have_v reject_v even_o all_o to_o one_o see_v we_o be_v all_o by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n let_v we_o also_o proceed_v further_o for_o albeit_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v bear_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n yet_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o the_o declare_v of_o his_o power_n and_o wrath_n sake_n to_o create_v all_o to_o destruction_n let_v we_o rest_v silent_a as_o it_o be_v right_a in_o that_o will_n as_o in_o the_o sovereign_a and_o alone_a rule_n of_o justice_n for_o what_o be_v more_o just_a than_o that_o man_n judge_v that_o to_o be_v true_o just_a and_o good_a which_o god_n do_v albeit_o they_o can_v comprehend_v his_o judgement_n but_o if_o be_v damn_v more_o than_o he_o do_v sane_a he_o do_v not_o therefore_o seem_v to_o we_o more_o ready_a to_o wrath_n than_o to_o mercy_n because_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n by_o christ_n be_v so_o great_a that_o albeit_o it_o shall_v appertain_v to_o one_o man_n only_o yet_o for_o that_o it_o belong_v to_o we_o this_o goodness_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v great_a by_o many_o degree_n than_o his_o just_a wrath_n against_o the_o rest_n for_o whereas_o he_o be_v angry_a with_o sin_n he_o seem_v after_o a_o sort_n to_o do_v it_o of_o necessity_n and_o whereas_o even_o for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o one_o man_n he_o make_v himself_o man_n that_o in_o very_a deed_n seem_v after_o a_o sort_n more_o infinite_a than_o infiniteness_n itself_o it_o remain_v that_o we_o consider_v that_o most_o sweet_a voice_n of_o christ_n
