give_v they_o a_o parable_n to_o inform_v concern_v the_o manner_n of_o pray_v for_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o you_o have_v it_o in_o these_o use_v word_n when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n

jesus_n christ_n indeed_o intend_v it_o for_o a_o platform_n or_o a_o pattern_n to_o direct_v we_o in_o the_o make_n of_o our_o prayer_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o we_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o and_o go_v to_o god_n for_o but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o these_o word_n but_o he_o never_o intend_v to_o tie_v up_o his_o people_n to_o this_o form_n and_o that_o i_o will_v prove_v by_o some_o reason_n reas_n 1_o 1._o because_o though_o luke_n here_o say_v when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o etc._n etc._n yet_o matthew_n vary_v in_o his_o expression_n and_o say_v when_o you_o pray_v say_v after_o this_o manner_n mat._n 6._o 9_o to_o reach_v we_o that_o we_o be_v to_o stick_v to_o the_o matter_n contain_v in_o this_o prayer_n but_o we_o be_v not_o confine_v every_o time_n we_o pray_v to_o use_v the_o same_o expression_n by_o luke_n we_o learn_v that_o the_o use_n of_o this_o form_n of_o word_n be_v lawful_a by_o matthew_n that_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a reas_n 2_o 2._o a_o second_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o in_o the_o recital_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n by_z matthew_n and_o luke_n there_o be_v much_o difference_n and_o though_o the_o difference_n be_v not_o material_a yet_o it_o be_v verbal_a which_o be_v enough_o to_o prove_v what_o i_o intend_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o the_o word_n in_o the_o three_o petition_v it_o be_v thus_o in_o matthew_n thy_o will_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n in_o luke_n it_o be_v thus_o thy_o will_n be_v do_v as_o in_o heaven_n so_o in_o earth_n in_o the_o four_o petition_n it_o be_v say_v in_o matthew_n give_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n in_o luke_n it_o be_v say_v give_v we_o daily_a day_n by_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n in_o the_o five_o petition_v it_o be_v say_v in_o matthew_n and_o forgive_v we_o our_o debt_n in_o luke_n it_o be_v say_v for_o we_o forgive_v every_o one_o that_o be_v indebt_v to_o we_o last_o it_o be_v say_v in_o matthew_n for_o thou_o be_v the_o kingdom_n the_o power_n and_o the_o glory_n for_o ever_o amen_n but_o these_o word_n be_v whole_o leave_v out_o in_o luke_n which_o variance_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o that_o you_o must_v not_o recede_v from_o the_o matter_n or_o purport_v of_o the_o word_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v superstitious_a and_o solicitous_a about_o the_o expression_n as_o chemnitius_n observe_v simus_fw-la reas_n 3_o 3._o another_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o we_o be_v not_o limit_v to_o that_o form_n be_v this_o because_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o and_o all_o his_o apostle_n do_v never_o use_v this_o form_n in_o all_o their_o prayer_n and_o if_o there_o have_v be_v a_o necessity_n that_o we_o shall_v have_v use_v it_o christ_n will_v as_o he_o may_v easy_o have_v leave_v a_o command_n behind_o he_o in_o the_o word_n and_o also_o he_o will_v have_v practise_v it_o himself_o that_o it_o may_v have_v be_v our_o example_n this_o reason_n chemnitius_n give_v there_o be_v many_o prayer_n in_o david_n psalm_n many_o in_o the_o prophet_n many_o in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n many_o in_o the_o epistle_n of_o paul_n which_o be_v different_a in_o expression_n from_o this_o form_n and_o yet_o doubtless_o receive_v acceptance_n from_o god_n 4._o 4._o reas_n another_o argument_n be_v this_o because_o it_o be_v the_o work_n and_o office_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n not_o only_o to_o help_v the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o the_o manner_n how_o but_o also_o in_o the_o matter_n what_o to_o pray_v to_o put_v even_o word_n into_o our_o mouth_n rom._n 8._o 76._o we_o know_v not_o what_o we_o shall_v pray_v for_o as_o we_o ●●_o ought_v but_o the_o spirit_n help_v our_o infirmity_n and_o upon_o these_o ground_n it_o appear_v that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o use_v that_o form_n of_o word_n minister_n do_v sometime_o use_v this_o form_n of_o prayer_n to_o justify_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o it_o and_o sometime_o they_o do_v not_o use_v it_o lest_o people_n shall_v dote_v too_o much_o upon_o set_a form_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o matter_n of_o prayer_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o manner_n and_o that_o be_v express_v in_o this_o parable_n which_o parable_n be_v lay_v down_o in_o the_o 5_o 6_o 7_o 8._o verse_n 8._o and_o be_v say_v unto_o they_o which_o of_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o friend_n and_o shall_v go_v unto_o he_o at_o midnight_n and_o say_v unto_o

depart_v from_o i_o yea_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o negative_a caution_n i_o shall_v now_o lay_v down_o a_o few_o positive_a positive_a caution_n 1._o if_o god_n have_v return_v thy_o prayer_n see_v that_o thou_o be_v more_o frequent_a in_o prayer_n than_o thou_o be_v former_o this_o be_v the_o purpose_n of_o holy_a david_n psal_n 116._o because_o 116._o the_o lord_n
