long●_n see_v we_o be_v forlorn_a and_o damn_v in_o adam_n fall_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o he_o have_v not_o remedy_v it_o rather_o sure_o s._n paul_n do_v not_o altogether_o satisfy_v man_n appetite_n but_o cut_v it_o quite_o off_o by_o the_o waste_n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n if_o god_n ment_fw-la too_o content_v we_o he_o shall_v be_v fain_o too_o feed_v we_o with_o many_o needless_a thing_n but_o he_o intend_v too_o t●ye_v the_o obedientnesse_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o saint_n paul_n also_o do_v bar_v we_o of_o that_o thing_n in_o say_v that_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v and_o what_o mean_v he_o by_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n he_o mean_v the_o time_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v in_o his_o own_o purpose_n and_o not_o according_a as_o man_n may_v have_v judge_v of_o it_o for_o they_o be_v no_o competent_a judge_n of_o that_o matter_n but_o must_v submit_v themselves_o to_o god_n and_o allow_v of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v establish_v thus_o you_o see_v what_o s._n paul_n mean_v by_o say_v that_o the_o full_a time_n be_v then_o come_v when_o god_n send_v his_o only_a son_n into_o the_o world_n therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o our_o chief_a wisdom_n be_v this_o soberness_n of_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n too_o accept_v for_o good_a and_o rightful_a what_o soever_o thing_n he_o do_v know_v that_o on_o our_o own_o part_n though_o we_o have_v never_o so_o much_o understand_v it_o be_v but_o folly_n for_o we_o too_o think_v ourselves_o aught_o worth_n or_o too_o take_v upon_o we_o the_o skill_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o that_o we_o must_v learn_v too_o humble_a ourselves_o to_o our_o god_n and_o not_o do_v as_o many_o man_n do_v who_o be_v so_o hasty_a as_o to_o say_v what_o i_o think_v thus_o and_o thus_o be_v my_o opinion_n for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n more_o contrary_a to_o god_n doctrine_n than_o when_o man_n presume_v so_o much_o upon_o themselves_o as_o too_o say_v thus_o must_v the_o matter_n go_v and_o so_o and_o so_o do_v i_o think_v or_o suppose_v true_o it_o become_v we_o too_o behilde_n as_o captive_n 3._o as_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o the_o second_o too_o the_o corinthian_n let_v we_o hold_v ourselves_o in_o such_o awe_n as_o we_o may_v not_o once_o lift_v up_o our_o head_n too_o dispute_v against_o god_n nor_o make_v any_o estimation_n of_o ourselves_o as_o though_o we_o be_v of_o some_o ability_n let_v we_o hold_v we_o content_v with_o the_o liberty_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o and_o not_o abuse_v the_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v grant_v we_o in_o prefer_v we_o before_o those_o that_o be_v as_o angel_n in_o this_o world_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v not_o advance_v to_o the_o liberty_n which_o we_o have_v by_o the_o gospel_n furthermore_o s._n paul_n do_v here_o bring_v we_o back_o to_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v above_o all_o other_o which_o be_v that_o our_o be_v at_o the_o time_n of_o full_a age_n in_o these_o day_n be_v not_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o virtue_n that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o difference_n between_o we_o and_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o that_o they_o be_v lead_v as_o under_o awe_n and_o we_o be_v now_o set_v free_a into_o 〈…〉_o why_o be_v we_o 〈◊〉_d ▪_o be_v it_o because_o we_o be_v of_o more_o value_n

then_o enjoy_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o gospel_n let_v we_o go_v right_o forth_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o as_o he_o be_v glorify_v in_o himself_o will_v also_o bring_v we_o intoo_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n whereinto_o he_o be_v go_v before_o us._n this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o saint_n paul_n mean_v purposely_o too_o tell_v us._n as_o touch_v that_o it_o be_v add_v that_o he_o be_v make_v of_o woman_n and_o put_v under_o the_o law_n it_o can_v not_o be_v dispatch_v at_o this_o time_n and_o therefore_o we_o will_v reserve_v it_o till_o a_o other_o time_n and_o now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o to_o make_v we_o so_o too_o feel_v they_o as_o we_o may_v mourn_v and_o be_v sorry_a for_o they_o with_o true_a repentance_n and_o go_v thither_o as_o he_o call_v we_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n be_v so_o right_o bereave_v of_o our_o flesh_n and_o of_o all_o the_o corruption_n thereof_o as_o we_o may_v come_v to_o the_o joy_n whereto_o he_o daily_o call_v we_o and_o unto_o that_o uncorruptnesse_n wherein_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o go_v forward_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n that_o it_o may_v please_v he_o too_o grant_v this_o grace_n not_o only_o too_o we_o but_o also_o too_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n the_o xxu_o sermon_n which_o be_v the_o second_o upon_o the_o four_o chapter_n 4_o but_o when_o the_o time_n be_v full_o come_v god_n send_v his_o son_n make_v of_o woman_n and_o make_v under_o the_o law_n 5_z too_o the_o intent_n too_o redeem_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o we_o may_v receyve_v the_o adoption_n of_o child_n 6_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o you_o be_v child_n god_n have_v send_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n into_o your_o heart_n cry_v abba_n that_o be_v to_o say_v father_n 7_z wherefore_o now_o thou_o be_v not_o a_o servant_n but_o a_o son_n and_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o son_n thou_o be_v also_o a_o heir_n with_o christ_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o why_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n namely_o to_o abate_v man_n curiosity_n who_o by_o their_o good_a will_n will_v seek_v to_o far_o into_o god_n secret_n yea_o and_o take_v upon_o they_o so_o bold_o as_o to_o reply_v against_o god_n if_o he_o behave_v not_o himself_o after_o their_o fancy_n to_o the_o intent_n therefore_o that_o the_o faithful_a may_v content_v themselves_o with_o the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v keep_v in_o send_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o say_v that_o the_o due_a season_n be_v not_o before_o for_o that_o matter_n depend_v upon_o the_o only_a good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n and_o upon_o his_o unchaungeable_a purpose_n whereunto_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o submit_v ourselves_o and_o now_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v make_v of_o woman_n and_o put_v under_o the_o law_n to_o acquit_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n first_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v clothe_v with_o our_o nature_n for_o else_o he_o can_v not_o have_v yield_v obedience_n to_o god_n in_o our_o behalf_n that_o we_o may_v be_v set_v free_a howbeit_o for_o asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v conceyve_v after_o a_o wonderful_a manner_n therefore_o do_v s._n paul_n say_v he_o be_v make_v or_o beget_v of_o a_o woman_n it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n nevertheless_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o there_o be_v a_o secret_a work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o his_o conception_n but_o how_o soever_o it_o be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o too_o the_o end_n he_o may_v yield_v obedience_n to_o god_n his_o father_n as_o it_o be_v in_o our_o person_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o this_o subjection_n whereof_o he_o speak_v be_v not_o of_o constraint_n but_o of_o good_a will_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v all_o superiority_n and_o soveraintie_n in_o so_o much_o that_o even_o the_o angel_n and_o all_o the_o principality_n must_v bow_v their_o knee_n before_o he_o too_o do_v he_o honour_n how_o then_o can_v he_o be_v subject_a too_o the_o law_n sing_v that_o the_o law_n be_v such_o a_o bondage_n this_o do_v no_o whit_n deface_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n son_n for_o asmuch_o as_o he_o abace_v himself_o of_o his_o own_o good_a will_n therefore_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o second_o too_o the_o philippian_n there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n in_o that_o he_o may_v make_v himself_o equal_a with_o god_n without_o robbery_n 6._o and_o yet_o that_o he_o abace_v himself_o also_o so_o then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o this_o do_v of_o his_o proceed_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a and_o unconstreyn_v goodness_n he_o continue_v always_o in_o his_o own_o state_n not_o withstand_v that_o before_o man_n he_o have_v the_o shape_n and_o fashion_n of_o a_o servant_n as_o s._n paul_n also_o specifi_v in_o the_o same_o place_n
25._o too_o find_v favour_n at_o his_o hand_n by_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o there_o withal_o send_v we_o the_o gospel_n to_o put_v we_o in_o possession_n of_o the_o same_o benefit_n his_o so_o do_v be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o only_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v righteous_a and_o be_v glorify_v therefore_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v yield_v he_o all_o praise_n and_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o beholden_a to_o he_o for_o all_o thing_n nevertheless_o the_o glorify_v of_o god_n consist_v not_o only_o in_o our_o confess_v with_o our_o mouth_n that_o he_o be_v the_o author_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o the_o same_o come_v of_o he_o alone_o and_o of_o his_o mere_a goodness_n and_o free_a grace_n but_o also_o in_o become_v new_a man_n through_o his_o holy_a spirit_n so_o as_o his_o image_n shine_v forth_o in_o we_o and_o we_o indever_n to_o give_v over_o ourselves_o whole_o to_o his_o service_n 7._o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n have_v not_o call_v we_o to_o filthiness_n and_o uncleanness_n but_o that_o his_o meaning_n be_v too_o make_v we_o holy_a to_o himself_o now_o then_o see_v the_o case_n stand_v so_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o saint_n paul_n add_v here_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v deliver_v liver_v we_o from_o this_o wicked_a world_n by_o offer_v himself_o for_o we_o and_o that_o he_o have_v wipe_v out_o the_o remembrance_n of_o our_o sin_n before_o god_n his_o father_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o lie_v any_o long_o plunge_v in_o our_o own_o filth_n and_o unclennesse_n but_o be_v as_o it_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o world_n â–ª_o to_o the_o intent_n to_o become_v the_o heritage_n of_o god_n and_o to_o dispose_v our_o whole_a life_n to_o such_o obedience_n as_o it_o may_v be_v see_v that_o like_a as_o he_o have_v adopt_v we_o to_o be_v his_o child_n so_o we_o also_o have_v love_v and_o honour_v he_o as_o our_o father_n and_o out_o of_o all_o doubt_n when_o as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o must_v be_v take_v out_o of_o this_o wicked_a world_n it_o be_v a_o benefit_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v abash_v at_o for_o under_o the_o word_n world_n be_v comprehend_v all_o that_o belong_v to_o man_n in_o his_o own_o nature_n the_o world_n of_o itself_o have_v in_o it_o neither_o vice_n nor_o corruption_n but_o all_o the_o evilnesse_n of_o it_o come_v of_o the_o sin_n that_o dwell_v in_o us._n so_o then_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o world_n be_v wicked_a 19_o according_a also_o as_o s._n john_n in_o his_o canonical_a epistle_n say_v that_o all_o the_o world_n be_v sape_v and_o plunge_v in_o naughtiness_n that_o wickedness_n be_v neither_o in_o the_o sun_n nor_o in_o the_o moon_n nor_o in_o the_o earth_n nor_o in_o the_o water_n nor_o in_o any_o of_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o they_o but_o in_o that_o we_o be_v so_o pervert_v that_o we_o have_v infect_v all_o thing_n here_o bilowe_v with_o our_o unclennesse_n and_o that_o as_o long_o as_o man_n continue_v in_o themselves_o and_o in_o their_o own_o nature_n they_o be_v but_o filthiness_n so_o as_o they_o must_v of_o necessity_n displease_v god_n for_o sure_o there_o can_v be_v none_o agreement_n between_o righteousness_n and_o unrighteousness_n but_o in_o we_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v find_v but_o unrighteousness_n therefore_o we_o must_v either_o be_v withdraw_v from_o ourselves_o or_o else_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o come_v nigh_o unto_o god_n what_o shall_v then_o become_v of_o all_o the_o blind_a wretch_n which_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o work_v wonder_n with_o their_o free_a will_n their_o virtue_n their_o wisdom_n and_o i_o wot_v not_o what_o else_o according_a as_o we_o see_v that_o man_n do_v always_o like_v well_o of_o themselves_o &_o although_o they_o be_v convict_v to_o have_v nothing_o but_o filthiness_n in_o they_o &_o that_o they_o be_v so_o loathsome_a as_o it_o be_v pity_n to_o see_v it_o and_o they_o themselves_o ought_v to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o yet_o they_o will_v still_o challenge_v somewhat_o to_o themselves_o &_o always_o deceyve_v themselves_o with_o their_o own_o fond_a imagination_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o man_n have_v well_o try_v themselves_o all_o that_o they_o can_v find_v in_o they_o shall_v be_v condemn_v under_o the_o term_n of_o naughtiness_n or_a wickedness_n insomuch_o that_o it_o be_v show_v thereby_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o corruption_n in_o we_o and_o that_o if_o we_o presume_v too_o press_v unto_o god_n as_o we_o be_v of_o ourselves_o he_o must_v needs_o drive_v we_o a_o great_a way_n of_o therefore_o mark_v this_o for_o a_o ground_n that_o here_o all_o pride_n be_v beat_v down_o too_o the_o intent_n that_o man_n may_v learn_v too_o leave_v their_o boast_n in_o any_o thing_n save_v in_o the_o free_a goodness_n of_o god_n and_o be_v so_o abash_v in_o consider_v their_o own_o shame_n that_o they_o may_v condemn_v themselves_o with_o their_o own_o mouth_n and_o not_o tarry_v till_o god_n give_v sentence_n against_o they_o but_o become_v their_o own_o judge_n this_o be_v it_o in_o effect_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v and_o now_o we_o see_v how_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o walk_v wary_o and_o careful_o that_o we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n belong_v to_o us._n for_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o give_v bridle_n too_o our_o juste_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v disclaim_v us._n true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o salvation_n rest_v always_o upon_o the_o only_a goodness_n of_o god_n and_o that_o we_o must_v not_o intermeddle_v our_o own_o work_n when_o we_o intend_v too_o have_v the_o certainty_n of_o

that_o he_o have_v purchase_v we_o for_o that_o be_v a_o mock_n of_o he_o to_o his_o face_n if_o we_o shall_v go_v wallow_v again_o in_o our_o own_o filthiness_n after_o that_o he_o have_v wash_v we_o in_o his_o blood_n be_v it_o not_o a_o wilful_a defyl_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v most_o holy_a you_o a_o and_o which_o make_v all_o the_o whole_a world_n holy_a now_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v

again_o in_o our_o own_o filthiness_n then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o to_o enjoy_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v not_o take_v liberty_n to_o do_v evil_a nor_o to_o live_v after_o our_o own_o appetite_n and_o lust_n but_o we_o must_v always_o come_v to_o the_o separation_n whereof_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o which_o be_v to_o be_v withdraw_v from_o this_o wicked_a world_n &_o not_o to_o break_v asunder_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v knit_v together_o with_o so_o holy_a a_o band_n nor_o to_o disannul_v the_o order_n of_o

34._o that_o those_o which_o will_v be_v his_o disciple_n must_v abase_v themselves_o &_o follow_v he_o what_o have_v we_o they_o to_o do_v and_o what_o ought_v to_o be_v our_o travail_n all_o the_o

now_o if_o we_o consider_v all_o these_o thing_n well_o we_o have_v here_o a_o very_a profitable_a story_n for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n we_o see_v how_o every_o man_n desire_v too_o hold_v in_o

the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n you_o see_v then_o what_o i_o have_v win_v by_o abide_v in_o the_o law_n and_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o himself_o rather_o than_o of_o any_o other_o body_n to_o the_o end_n

shall_v seek_v it_o in_o he_o yea_o even_o all_o whole_o and_o not_o by_o piece_n thus_o than_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n reason_v that_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o have_v receive_v god_n spirit_n

the_o one_o be_v that_o what_o soever_o god_n have_v at_o any_o time_n promise_v we_o be_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a free_a goodness_n for_o a_o inheritance_n be_v not_o a_o wage_n or_o hire_n true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o father_n in_o give_v his_o child_n their_o heritage_n may_v well_o say_v see_v how_o i_o take_v pain_n for_o you_o mark_v what_o shall_v come_v of_o it_o you_o shall_v have_v my_o

too_o provide_v for_o such_o as_o be_v so_o ally_v unto_o he_o see_v then_o that_o heritage_n be_v thing_n of_o free_a gift_n among_o man_n we_o must_v not_o take_v eternal_a life_n as_o a_o deserve_a wage_n or_o hire_n at_o god_n hand_n for_o why_o it_o be_v a_o heritage_n mark_v it_o for_o a_o sure_a ground_n that_o here_o all_o worthiness_n of_o man_n be_v exclude_v for_o when_o a_o man_n make_v his_o child_n his_o heir_n he_o pass_v not_o whither_o they_o have_v do_v any_o great_a work_n or_o no_o or_o whither_o they_o be_v fair_a or_o foul_a or_o whither_o they_o be_v one_o thing_n or_o

by_o the_o only_a mere_a grace_n of_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o sun_n shine_v as_o well_o upon_o the_o faithless_a as_o upon_o the_o faithful_a and_o all_o man_n be_v nurrish_v alike_o

they_o be_v both_o one_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o but_o in_o this_o text_n the_o word_n faith_n have_v yet_o a_o more_o peculiar_a signification_n which_o be_v the_o revelation_n or_a

we_o to_o be_v equal_a and_o in_o like_a state_n you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o may_v call_v upon_o god_n in_o all_o language_n as_o it_o be_v with_o one_o mouth_n and_o we_o must_v not_o doubt_v

his_o own_o mother_n tongue_n shall_v pray_v unto_o god_n in_o greek_a or_o hebrew_n sure_o it_o be_v but_o a_o dalliance_n and_o a_o utter_a pervert_v and_o mar_n of_o the_o rule_n of_o pray_v

that_o therein_o we_o confess_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n and_o the_o very_a wellspring_n of_o all_o welfare_n now_o than_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o we_o shall_v resort_v unto_o he_o which_o be_v

erst_o be_v honourable_a yet_o be_v it_o then_o have_v in_o reproach_n and_o disdain_n both_o before_o the_o angel_n and_o before_o all_o the_o faithful_a even_o so_o at_o this_o day_n we_o ought_v to_o consider_v well_o which_o be_v the_o church_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o be_v not_o child_n of_o a_o bastard_n seed_n and_o so_o god_n shake_v we_o off_o and_o banish_v we_o out_o of_o his_o house_n for_o pretend_v his_o name_n so_o false_o through_o hypocrisy_n before_o man_n in_o deed_n it_o be_v a_o very_a excellent_a honour_n that_o god_n give_v to_o his_o church_n in_o say_v that_o she_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a and_o it_o agree_v with_o s._n paul_n report_n in_o another_o place_n 15._o where_o he_o say_v that_o she_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o pillar_n that_o uphold_v god_n truth_n in_o this_o world_n not_o that_o the_o truth_n have_v any_o need_n to_o be_v maintain_v by_o we_o which_o be_v incline_v to_o all_o lightness_n and_o inconstancy_n and_o which_o have_v nothing_o in_o we_o by_o nature_n but_o untruth_n for_o what_o stedinesse_n be_v there_o to_o be_v find_v in_o we_o to_o say_v that_o god_n truth_n shall_v stay_v upon_o man_n but_o because_o that_o of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n it_o be_v his_o will_n to_o have_v his_o word_n preach_v here_o beneath_o and_o he_o have_v commit_v the_o charge_n thereof_o to_o such_o as_o he_o call_v thereto_o 9_o in_o respect_n where_o of_o the_o church_n be_v call_v the_o mother_n of_o we_o all_o for_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n tell_v we_o we_o have_v but_o one_o father_n which_o be_v god_n yea_o and_o he_o be_v the_o father_n as_o well_o of_o our_o body_n as_o of_o our_o soul_n howbeit_o god_n be_v our_o spiritual_a father_n without_o have_v any_o make_n &_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o beget_v we_o into_o the_o hope_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o his_o church_n wherinto_o he_o have_v put_v the_o say_v incorruptible_a seed_n 21._o according_a as_o he_o say_v by_o the_o prophet_n esay_n my_o word_n say_v he_o shall_v be_v in_o thy_o mouth_n and_o continue_v with_o thy_o child_n from_o time_n too_o time_n and_o with_o all_o those_o that_o shall_v come_v of_o thy_o race_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o god_n intend_v to_o govern_v his_o faithful_a one_o namely_o by_o his_o word_n which_o he_o make_v to_o be_v as_o a_o pledge_n and_o inestimable_a treasure_n of_o salvation_n in_o his_o church_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v beget_v and_o nurrish_v with_o it_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o we_o have_v need_v too_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o skilfull_a in_o discern_v the_o church_n for_o see_v it_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o god_n child_n the_o name_n of_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v dishonour_v and_o trample_v under_o foot_n nor_o yet_o defile_v as_o it_o be_v see_v to_o be_v nowadays_o there_o be_v not_o a_o more_o common_a treachery_n than_o to_o put_v forth_o the_o name_n of_o the_o church_n to_o deface_v and_o darken_v god_n truth_n for_o whereat_o do_v the_o papist_n am_z nowadays_o in_o vaunt_v with_o full_a mouth_n and_o full_a throat_n that_o they_o be_v the_o church_n but_o to_o stop_v god_n mouth_n and_o to_o thrust_v his_o word_n under_o foot_n that_o it_o may_v no_o more_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o the_o thing_n that_o man_n have_v forge_v after_o their_o own_o like_n shall_v be_v receyve_v without_o any_o gainsay_n and_o stick_v to_o and_o obey_v we_o see_v then_o that_o man_n which_o be_v but_o earthworme_n and_o rottenness_n be_v put_v into_o the_o balance_n against_o god_n and_o all_o under_o pretence_n of_o the_o church_n but_o here_o saint_n paul_n warn_v we_o to_o seek_v the_o church_n which_o have_v the_o pure_a doctrine_n whereby_o we_o be_v adopt_v of_o god_n to_o be_v his_o child_n now_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o heretofore_o that_o the_o whole_a matter_n lie_v in_o our_o be_v ingreff_v into_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o also_o in_o our_o acknowledge_v that_o we_o be_v accurse_v by_o nature_n that_o all_o our_o work_n be_v but_o filthiness_n that_o the_o devil_n hold_v we_o subject_a to_o his_o tyranny_n and_o that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o help_n for_o we_o but_o that_o god_n shall_v receyve_v we_o to_o mercy_n and_o pity_n therefore_o let_v we_o go_v into_o god_n house_n by_o the_o say_a gate_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o way_n for_o we_o to_o get_v in_o but_o by_o the_o only_a mere_a grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o church_n do_v breed_v we_o and_o bear_v we_o very_o even_o by_o the_o foresay_a incorruptible_a seed_n now_o that_o we_o may_v sore_o the_o better_a by_o this_o text_n we_o have_v two_o point_n too_o mark_v the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v like_o these_o
