the_o world_n to_o disobey_v god_n what_o the_o devil_n can_v do_v be_v notorious_o see_v in_o judas_n and_o the_o jew_n he_o he_o instigate_v and_o draw_v on_o to_o betray_v his_o own_o master_n they_o he_o entice_v to_o destroy_v their_o own_o messiah_n and_o king_n let_v we_o pray_v then_o that_o god_n by_o his_o grace_n will_v shut_v and_o keep_v all_o such_o diabolical_a insinuation_n out_o of_o our_o heart_n for_o that_o wicked_a one_o will_v persuade_v we_o to_o nothing_o that_o be_v good_a after_o this_o the_o evangelist_n mention_v the_o power_n and_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n 1._o 1._o first_o lest_o any_o shall_v think_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o god_n because_o judas_n can_v betray_v he_o as_o he_o be_v god_n in_o the_o beginning_n so_o he_o continue_v even_o when_o

height_n of_o christ_n be_v set_v forth_o in_o three_o word_n 1._o 1._o the_o first_o be_v this_o know_v that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v all_o thing_n into_o his_o hand_n or_o that_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o all_o even_o of_o the_o devil_n and_o wicked_a man_n and_o yet_o will_v as_o it_o be_v lay_v by_o this_o his_o power_n for_o the_o love_n he_o bear_v to_o man_n or_o rather_o will_v hide_v it_o and_o so_o become_v weak_a and_o low_a so_o weak_a as_o not_o to_o help_v the_o godly_a yea_o so_o low_a as_o to_o suffer_v the_o wicked_a to_o vent_v their_o rage_n upon_o he_o without_o restraint_n great_a humiliation_n indeed_o and_o great_a love_n and_o all_o this_o that_o he_o may_v succour_v poor_a helpiess_n man_n or_o thus_o know_v that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v he_o all_o thing_n into_o his_o hand_n i._n e._n he_o know_v that_o the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n depend_v upon_o he_o it_o be_v at_o his_o pleasure_n whether_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v or_o perish_v he_o do_v know_v and_o indeed_o acknowledge_v that_o to_o save_v man_n be_v a_o gift_n give_v he_o of_o the_o father_n therefore_o he_o do_v manful_o and_o courageous_o set_v about_o that_o work_n and_o we_o have_v great_a consolation_n from_o these_o two_o word_n that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v all_o thing_n to_o christ_n and_o that_o into_o his_o hand_n to_o wit_n justification_n forgiveness_n of_o sin_n life_n salvation_n redemption_n judgement_n resurrection_n kingdom_n etc._n etc._n whereby_o we_o also_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n to_o know_v and_o give_v good_a heed_n to_o what_o god_n have_v give_v we_o what_o he_o have_v commit_v or_o command_v to_o we_o 2._o 2._o the_o second_o word_n that_o express_v christ_n highness_n be_v that_o he_o come_v out_o from_o god_n all_o creature_n be_v from_o god_n by_o creation_n but_o christ_n come_v from_o god_n by_o eternal_a generation_n so_o that_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v know_v that_o he_o be_v
to_o suffer_v it_o 2._o he_o show_v that_o he_o fear_v not_o the_o devil_n though_o he_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n nor_o death_n than_o which_o nothing_o seem_v more_o terrible_a let_v other_o say_v he_o stand_v in_o dread_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o death_n but_o let_v we_o undaunted_o meet_v both_o and_o look_v they_o in_o the_o face_n without_o fear_n they_o shall_v meet_v with_o their_o match_n and_o find_v one_o that_o be_v too_o strong_a for_o they_o 3._o christ_n will_v have_v his_o apostle_n to_o be_v present_a spectator_n of_o his_o passion_n as_o long_o as_o their_o humane_a frailty_n be_v able_a to_o stay_v and_o endure_v it_o that_o they_o may_v the_o better_o be_v believe_v therefore_o john_n say_v more_o than_o once_o he_o that_o see_v it_o bare_a record_n 19_o john_n 19_o and_o we_o know_v that_o his_o record_n etc._n etc._n 4._o he_o exhort_v they_o to_o get_v thence_o with_o he_o because_o he_o foresee_v what_o danger_n they_o will_v be_v in_o if_o they_o tarry_v there_o any_o long_o for_o if_o they_o have_v stay_v in_o the_o house_n till_o the_o enemy_n have_v come_v upon_o they_o the_o apostle_n can_v have_v have_v no_o way_n of_o escape_n beside_o the_o good_a man_n of_o the_o house_n may_v have_v be_v bring_v into_o great_a trouble_n for_o harbour_v such_o guest_n 5._o he_o show_v that_o the_o apostle_n must_v pass_v the_o same_o way_n to_o the_o father_n which_o he_o be_v to_o go_v before_o they_o 6._o last_o he_o will_v put_v they_o in_o mind_n that_o it_o be_v now_o high_a time_n to_o raise_v up_o their_o mind_n from_o
