put_v in_o execution_n &_o namely_o a_o wicked_a man_n if_o he_o give_v counsel_n he_o will_v glad_o have_v it_o put_v in_o execution_n albeit_o it_o be_v never_o so_o wicked_a if_o he_o shall_v do_v

to_o peter_n and_o make_v rehearsal_n of_o a_o thing_n that_o befall_v to_o peter_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n of_o that_o foul_a fall_n of_o peter_n who_o boast_v so_o fast_o of_o his_o strength_n to_o be_v a_o example_n to_o the_o whole_a posterity_n never_o to_o trust_v in_o the_o power_n of_o man_n he_o get_v a_o worse_a fall_n than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o disciple_n for_o he_o deny_v the_o lord_n with_o a_o execration_n the_o rest_n flee_v only_o in_o this_o fact_n of_o peter_n we_o have_v first_o how_o he_o tempt_v god_n then_o next_o because_o he_o tempt_v the_o lord_n the_o lord_n tempt_v he_o again_o he_o who_o tempt_v god_n god_n will_v tempt_v he_o three_o we_o have_v the_o foul_a denial_n of_o peter_n by_o a_o light_a temptation_n then_o peter_n first_o tempt_v the_o lord_n for_o when_o as_o they_o lead_v away_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o hall_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n there_o follow_v he_o peter_n albeit_o the_o lord_n have_v forewarn_v he_o of_o his_o weakness_n but_o afar_o off_o as_o matt._n 26.58_o mark_v 14.54_o and_o luke_n 22._o 54._o do_v note_n and_o another_o disciple_n what_o this_o disciple_n be_v his_o name_n be_v not_o mention_v some_o think_v it_o be_v john_n for_o john_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o he_o use_v common_o to_o suppress_v his_o name_n as_o you_o see_v often_o in_o this_o book_n other_o think_v it_o be_v not_o

more_o prooveable_a for_o i_o think_v john_n have_v not_o such_o a_o acquaintance_n and_o court_n with_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v but_o a_o simple_a man_n a_o poor_a fisher_n namely_o a_o disciple_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o whosoever_o it_o be_v it_o be_v not_o much_o to_o the_o purpose_n when_o they_o come_v to_o caiaphas_n hall_n the_o lord_n be_v take_v in_o among_o the_o rest_n this_o other_o disciple_n get_v in_o because_o say_v john_n he_o be_v know_v to_o the_o high_a priest_n as_o for_o peter_n because_o he_o be_v not_o know_v he_o stand_v at_o the_o door_n which_o be_v strait_o keep_v at_o this_o time_n the_o other_o disciple_n pity_v peter_n case_n and_o estate_n but_o it_o be_v a_o preposterous_a pity_n and_o he_o entreat_v the_o doorkeeper_n to_o let_v in_o peter_n take_v heed_n to_o friendship_n and_o look_v that_o in_o pleasure_v thy_o friend_n thou_o be_v not_o a_o instrument_n of_o his_o destruction_n now_o peter_n come_v in_o and_o warm_v himself_o among_o the_o rest_n this_o for_o peter_n tempt_v of_o god_n now_o let_v we_o examine_v here_o what_o be_v commendable_a and_o what_o be_v not_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o will_v not_o like_v of_o this_o love_n which_o peter_n do_v bear_v towards_o his_o master_n christ_n jesus_n and_o of_o this_o zeal_n and_o of_o this_o his_o unwillingness_n to_o depart_v from_o his_o master_n for_o he_o love_v he_o so_o well_o that_o he_o will_v follow_v he_o to_o the_o death_n and_o will_v to_o god_n in_o this_o cold_a age_n there_o be_v but_o a_o piece_n of_o this_o zeal_n in_o we_o that_o peter_n have_v we_o have_v no_o zeal_n and_o if_o it_o be_v but_o this_o inconsiderative_a zeal_n yet_o it_o be_v better_a to_o have_v it_o than_o no_o zeal_n so_o this_o love_n be_v commendable_a for_o albeit_o he_o do_v well_o to_o love_v his_o master_n yet_o he_o fail_v in_o this_o that_o in_o receive_v advertisement_n out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o suffer_v for_o he_o yet_o he_o will_v go_v forward_o &_o when_o jesus_n say_v to_o his_o taker_n if_o you_o seek_v i_o let_v these_o go_v their_o way_n peter_n may_v have_v perceive_v by_o this_o that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o suffer_v he_o may_v have_v retire_v to_o some_o private_a place_n with_o prayer_n &_o mourning_n but_o he_o will_v step_v forward_o &_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o that_o that_o the_o lord_n say_v to_o he_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a so_o he_o fall_v here_o very_o far_o we_o all_o have_v our_o lesson_n here_o the_o day_n of_o our_o trial_n may_v come_v let_v we_o therefore_o ever_o have_v our_o eye_n on_o the_o will_n of_o god_n &_o that_o which_o he_o will_v have_v thou_o to_o do_v that_o do_v thou_o &_o what_o the_o lord_n require_v not_o of_o we_o that_o do_v not_o thou_o can_v do_v nothing_o better_a than_o this_o to_o take_v up_o thy_o cross_n and_o to_o follow_v christ_n but_o if_o the_o lord_n bid_v thou_o not_o do_v it_o do_v it_o not_o if_o he_o require_v not_o at_o thy_o hand_n that_o thou_o suffer_v enter_v not_o to_o suffer_v if_o he_o forewarn_v thou_o that_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o suffer_v the_o fire_n go_v thy_o way_n step_z aside_o and_o let_v it_o be_v but_o one_o will_v say_v how_o can_v i_o get_v advertisement_n peter_n have_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n how_o shall_v we_o be_v advertise_v by_o god_n whether_o we_o shall_v offer_v ourselves_o to_o the_o fire_n or_o not_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o among_o we_o now_o face_n to_o face_n i_o answer_v the_o only_a way_n to_o know_v this_o be_v this_o ere_o any_o man_n offer_v to_o put_v his_o hand_n to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n look_v what_o he_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v look_v what_o strength_n of_o god_n he_o have_v if_o thou_o were_v like_o a_o giant_n thou_o will_v not_o bear_v the_o cross_n of_o christ_n with_o man_n strength_n if_o thou_o find_v in_o trial_n y_fw-fr t_o thou_o have_v not_o strength_n enough_o take_v it_o for_o a_o warn_n from_o heaven_n &_o draw_v thyself_o away_o to_o prayer_n &_o meditation_n &_o then_o be_v furnish_v with_o strength_n come_v out_o and_o suffer_v &_o then_o if_o thou_o have_v strength_n step_v forward_o &_o suffer_v another_o fault_n in_o peter_n when_o he_o come_v to_o the_o door_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n &_o find_v it_o shut_v yet_o he_o stand_v whereas_o by_o the_o shut_n of_o the_o door_n he_o be_v command_v to_o leave_v off_o at_o least_o to_o try_v whether_o the_o deed_n in_o hand_n be_v lawful_a or_o no._n it_o be_v by_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n that_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v he_o get_v a_o warning_n there_o to_o leave_v off_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o these_o impediment_n that_o be_v casten_z in_o when_o we_o be_v of_o purpose_n to_o effectuate_v or_o do_v any_o thing_n shall_v not_o be_v idle_o look_v on_o but_o they_o shall_v make_v we_o to_o enter_v into_o a_o careful_a and_o earnest_a trial_n of_o that_o deed_n to_o see_v whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a or_o not_o for_o nothing_o be_v without_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n &_o when_o thou_o have_v consider_v the_o work_n &_o find_v it_o a_o good_a work_n conformable_a to_o god_n will_v &_o that_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o then_o go_v forward_o in_o despite_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o the_o world_n but_o if_o thou_o find_v after_o trial_n otherwise_o either_o that_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a work_n or_o else_o a_o good_a work_n and_o yet_o that_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v it_o then_o stay_n and_o leave_v off_o for_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o thou_o shall_v think_v shame_n in_o the_o end_n as_o peter_n do_v therefore_o let_v no_o man_n look_v light_o to_o such_o impediment_n as_o they_o shall_v find_v to_o be_v casten_z in_o in_o do_v any_o thing_n well_o you_o see_v peter_n fall_n in_o these_o two_o point_n first_o he_o will_v not_o receive_v advertisement_n secondlie_o he_o will_v not_o go_v from_o the_o door_n till_o he_o get_v in_o search_v the_o ground_n of_o his_o do_v and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o albeit_o peter_n be_v a_o very_a weak_a man_n yet_o he_o see_v not_o his_o own_o infirmity_n and_o when_o he_o think_v himself_o strong_a enough_o in_o his_o vain_a conceit_a he_o be_v blind_v he_o see_v not_o his_o own_o infirmity_n &_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o his_o fall_n it_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o be_v

continual_a strife_n and_o debate_n betwixt_o the_o judge_n pilate_n and_o the_o accuser_n pilate_n ever_o strive_v to_o get_v jesus_n that_o just_a one_o and_o that_o innocent_a for_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o be_v innocent_a set_v at_o liberty_n the_o accuser_n on_o the_o other_o part_n strive_v to_o blot_n out_o the_o conscience_n of_o pilate_n and_o to_o get_v jesus_n crucify_v and_o as_o we_o have_v find_v this_o debate_n in_o the_o whole_a history_n before_o so_o also_o in_o these_o word_n which_o we_o have_v read_v we_o find_v the_o same_o strife_n and_o if_o pilate_n before_o be_v earnest_a to_o get_v jesus_n set_v loose_a he_o be_v far_o more_o earnest_a now_o than_o ever_o he_o be_v and_o with_o all_o his_o might_n he_o seek_v to_o get_v he_o set_v at_o liberty_n but_o look_v how_o earnest_a pilate_n be_v to_o have_v he_o loose_v the_o high_a priest_n and_o the_o jew_n be_v as_o earnest_a to_o have_v he_o crucify_v in_o end_n as_o we_o shall_v hear_v the_o victory_n incline_v to_o the_o accuser_n pilate_n give_v it_o over_o and_o sit_v down_o to_o condemn_v the_o innocent_a now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o word_n they_o be_v plain_a and_o offer_v very_o plain_a and_o easy_a doctrine_n therefore_o we_o shall_v be_v also_o plain_a by_o god_n grace_n it_o be_v say_v concern_v pilate_n that_o from_o that_o time_n when_o he_o have_v hear_v these_o last_o word_n of_o jesus_n accuse_v he_o for_o that_o blasphemy_n against_o his_o father_n than_o he_o take_v a_o great_a fear_n and_o from_o that_o time_n he_o study_v more_o and_o more_o to_o absolve_v jesus_n brethren_n we_o see_v here_o through_o this_o whole_a history_n that_o the_o more_o pilate_n hear_v of_o jesus_n and_o the_o more_o that_o jesus_n insistes_fw-la with_o he_o continual_o the_o conscience_n be_v the_o more_o waken_v and_o the_o more_o that_o it_o be_v waken_v the_o more_o earnest_o strive_v he_o to_o get_v he_o set_v at_o liberty_n so_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o see_v a_o ethnic_a without_o god_n to_o have_v such_o a_o conscience_n of_o the_o innocence_n of_o jesus_n and_o then_o that_o such_o a_o man_n shall_v labour_v to_o get_v he_o loose_v i_o know_v not_o if_o many_o of_o our_o judge_n now_o adays_o will_v have_v such_o a_o conscience_n and_o will_v be_v so_o earnest_a to_o have_v the_o innocent_a set_v at_o liberty_n so_o when_o i_o look_v to_o the_o vigilantnesse_n of_o his_o conscience_n i_o be_o compel_v to_o say_v that_o this_o man_n have_v a_o special_a grace_n in_o this_o point_n for_o one_o of_o the_o best_a blessing_n of_o a_o judge_n who_o sit_v on_o life_n and_o death_n be_v to_o have_v a_o vigilant_a conscience_n by_o the_o contrary_a a_o judge_n want_v conscience_n of_o right_n and_o wrong_n of_o all_o man_n he_o be_v the_o most_o accurse_a then_o brethren_n if_o you_o will_v look_v to_o this_o matter_n narrow_o you_o shall_v say_v that_o pilate_n have_v a_o great_a vigilantnesse_n in_o his_o conscience_n but_o alas_o he_o fall_v at_o the_o last_o for_o certain_o this_o conscience_n have_v be_v a_o blessing_n if_o he_o have_v obey_v this_o counsel_n of_o the_o conscience_n but_o because_o he_o fall_v in_o the_o end_n and_o obey_v not_o his_o conscience_n that_o which_o be_v give_v for_o a_o blessing_n become_v a_o curse_v unto_o he_o if_o god_n give_v thou_o a_o blessing_n as_o a_o vigilant_a conscience_n if_o thou_o abuse_v it_o and_o refuse_v to_o hear_v thy_o conscience_n the_o blessing_n sh●ll_v turn_v to_o a_o curse_n and_o that_o conscience_n which_o be_v a_o counsellor_n become_v a_o sore_a tormenter_n and_o urge_v thou_o to_o put_v hand_n into_o thy_o own_o soul_n and_o tear_v it_o in_o piece_n pilate_n conscience_n so_o judge_v and_o torment_v he_o till_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o put_v hand_n in_o himself_o that_o be_v his_o end_n now_o what_o do_v christ_n accuser_n look_v how_o b●sie_a pilate_n can_v be_v to_o get_v the_o innocent_a set_v at_o liberty_n as_o earnest_n be_v they_o to_o get_v he_o crucify_v and_o now_o they_o begin_v to_o handle_v pilate_n more_o sharp_o than_o before_o the_o great_a argument_n they_o use_v before_o be_v take_v from_o a_o crime_n lay_v to_o the_o charge_n of_o jesus_n from_o jesus_n treason_n against_o caesar_n the_o emperor_n and_o from_o his_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n now_o they_o leave_v off_o such_o accusation_n and_o they_o lie_v treason_n to_o pilate_n &_o accuse_v he_o of_o treason_n against_o his_o master_n caesar_n if_o thou_o let_v this_o man_n loose_a thou_o be_v no_o friend_n to_o thy_o master_n caesar_n thou_o will_v endanger_v thyself_o and_o make_v thyself_o guilty_a of_o treason_n and_o more_o this_o man_n will_v pull_v the_o crown_n from_o caesar_n head_n so_o if_o thou_o let_v such_o a_o man_n

they_o accuse_v pilate_n of_o treason_n against_o caesa●_n now_o pilate_n hear_v not_o the_o like_a of_o this_o all_o the_o day_n before_o and_o as_o he_o study_v to_o keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n

hand_n of_o pilate_n by_o any_o delation_n or_o point_n of_o indictment_n against_o jesus_n whether_o treason_n against_o caesar_n or_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n they_o come_v more_o roundly_o to_o

therefore_o hear_v treason_n lay_v to_o his_o charge_n he_o begin_v to_o faint_v &_o fail_v and_o then_o quick_o he_o enter_v into_o judgement_n and_o come_v out_o and_o bring_v out_o jesus_n and_o

in_o conscience_n yea_o when_o he_o be_v run_v to_o pronounce_v sentence_n of_o damnation_n he_o say_v behold_v your_o king_n to_o move_v they_o yet_o to_o suffer_v the_o innocent_a to_o escape_v but_o he_o prevail_v not_o for_o once_o get_v he_o under_o priest_n and_o people_n begin_v to_o shout_n in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o miserable_a man_n so_o that_o he_o can_v not_o hear_v his_o

we_o have_v no_o king_n but_o cesar_n woe_n to_o they_o that_o make_v such_o change_n and_o they_o find_v it_o in_o experience_n now_o brethren_n john_n in_o his_o gospel_n chap._n 19_o verse_n 16_o he_o subjoin_v that_o pilate_n deliver_v jesus_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o man_n of_o war_n to_o be_v crucify_v &_o that_o they_o receive_v he_o and_o lead_v he_o to_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n but_o matthew_n as_o you_o hear_v read_v report_n of_o some_o thing_n that_o interueened_a &_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n in_o special_a as_o he_o record_v that_o pass_v before_o the_o lead_n of_o jesus_n to_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n the_o first_o thing_n pilate_n by_o a_o ceremony_n of_o wash_v his_o hand_n cleanse_v he_o of_o the_o innocent_a blood_n and_o as_o he_o disburthen_n himself_o so_o he_o burthene_v the_o jew_n as_o guilty_a of_o the_o most_o innocent_a blood_n that_o ever_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v shed_v and_o they_o be_v more_o glad_a to_o take_v on_o the_o burden_n than_o he_o be_v to_o lay_v it_o over_o on_o they_o for_o with_o their_o own_o tongue_n they_o bind_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o innocent_a on_o their_o own_o back_n say_v his_o blood_n be_v on_o we_o and_o on_o our_o child_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o matthew_n rehearse_n be_v after_o that_o he_o have_v exoner_v himself_o as_o he_o think_v a_o vain_a thought_n he_o be_v never_o quite_o of_o it_o nor_o never_o shall_v be_v when_o he_o think_v he_o be_v exoner_v than_o he_o go_v quick_o to_o work_v than_o he_o begin_v to_o serve_v the_o foul_a and_o cruel_a appetite_n of_o the_o jew_n he_o let_v loose_a barrabas_n a_o foul_a murderer_n then_o as_o luke_n mark_n he_o give_v out_o the_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n against_o the_o innocent_a than_o he_o take_v he_o and_o scourge_v he_o the_o second_o time_n and_o last_o he_o put_v he_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o burrio_fw-la this_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n yet_o there_o be_v one_o three_o thing_n when_o they_o get_v he_o they_o lead_v he_o not_o incontinent_a out_o of_o the_o port_n to_o that_o filthy_a place_n of_o execution_n but_o to_o satisfy_v the_o maliciousness_n of_o their_o heart_n they_o lead_v he_o to_o the_o common_a hall_n again_o and_o there_o mis-use_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n when_o all_o this_o be_v do_v they_o lead_v he_o out_o to_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n we_o shall_v speak_v of_o these_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o rehearsal_n of_o matthew_n as_o for_o the_o first_o matthew_z say_z that_o when_o pilate_n see_v that_o he_o can_v prevail_v nothing_o at_o their_o hand_n but_o that_o more_o tumult_n be_v make_v he_o cry_v for_o water_n and_o wash_v his_o hand_n and_o make_v a_o protestation_n i_o be_o innocent_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o this_o just_a man_n and_o as_o he_o protest_v that_o he_o be_v clean_o he_o turn_v it_o over_o upon_o the_o jew_n say_v see_v you_o to_o it_o you_o shall_v give_v a_o account_n for_o this_o day_n work_n it_o shall_v be_v the_o dear_a work_n that_o ever_o you_o wrought_v they_o say_v let_v his_o blood_n be_v on_o we_o and_o on_o our_o child_n first_o we_o shall_v mark_v somewhat_o on_o the_o part_n of_o pilate_n second_o on_o the_o part_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o jew_n the_o history_n be_v very_o plain_a this_o miserable_a man_n pilate_n have_v fight_v on_o a_o reasonable_a space_n yea_o a_o long_a time_n for_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n against_o the_o obstinacy_n of_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o last_o when_o he_o be_v charge_v as_o guilty_a of_o treason_n when_o he_o see_v he_o can_v prevail_v and_o find_v he_o so_o strait_v with_o so_o great_a incommodity_n he_o be_v compel_v to_o yield_v and_o he_o think_v that_o this_o necessity_n shall_v excuse_v he_o for_o his_o part_n well_o enough_o brethren_n this_o be_v the_o lesson_n man_n common_o and_o especial_o such_o as_o pilate_n be_v man_n without_o god_n natural_a man_n that_o see_v not_o another_o life_n that_o see_v
