not_o lay_v that_o foundation_n which_o god_n have_v lay_v the_o foundation_n which_o god_n have_v lay_v be_v his_o son_n the_o eternal_a god_n he_o with_o who_o he_o enter_v into_o covenant_n and_o make_v a_o covenant_n with_o from_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o other_o foundation_n the_o foundation_n will_v not_o hold_v and_o indeed_o christ_n can_v be_v a_o foundation_n to_o bear_v up_o faith_n if_o he_o be_v not_o eternal_a god_n and_o lord_n equal_a with_o his_o father_n he_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v trust_v and_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o trust_v in_o man_n and_o make_v flesh_n his_o arm_n and_o if_o christ_n have_v not_o be_v eternal_a god_n he_o can_v not_o be_v a_o fit_a foundation_n and_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o every_o soul_n that_o come_v to_o christ_n shall_v believe_v in_o he_o as_o lord_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o divine_a worship_n that_o be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o christ_n else_o he_o can_v worship_v christ_n aright_o nor_o give_v christ_n that_o honour_n that_o be_v due_a to_o he_o and_o so_o all_o his_o worship_n be_v lose_v three_o it_o be_v needful_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n that_o man_n that_o come_v to_o christ_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v eternal_a god_n and_o one_o with_o the_o father_n or_o else_o he_o can_v expect_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n for_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o infinite_a god_n he_o can_v not_o have_v give_v satisfaction_n to_o infinite_a justice_n if_o christ_n be_v not_o god_n our_o sin_n be_v not_o purge_v away_o the_o

all_o man_n be_v in_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o like_a to_o be_v lose_v for_o ever_o four_o true_a faith_n must_v come_v to_o christ_n as_o lord_n or_o else_o we_o can_v have_v any_o assurance_n that_o

you_o give_v he_o not_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o body_n what_o do_v it_o profit_n alas_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o make_v complaint_n to_o such_o what_o do_v it_o avail_v it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v pity_v with_o good_a word_n be_v you_o warm_v and_o fill_v but_o they_o give_v they_o not_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o body_n thus_o many_o a_o poor_a creature_n lose_v his_o labour_n three_o when_o a_o poor_a creature_n make_v complaint_n to_o man_n and_o cry_v to_o man_n it_o may_v be_v he_o shall_v make_v complaint_n to_o those_o that_o do_v pity_v he_o and_o will_v relieve_v he_o with_o all_o their_o heart_n but_o it_o be_v beyond_o their_o power_n to_o relieve_v and_o so_o if_o a_o poor_a man_n that_o want_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n it_o may_v be_v he_o go_v and_o make_v his_o complaint_n to_o another_o he_o pity_v he_o and_o will_v help_v he_o but_o he_o that_o have_v a_o will_n have_v not_o power_n many_o time_n and_o it_o be_v not_o in_o his_o hand_n to_o do_v it_o and_o he_o can_v uphold_v another_o estate_n but_o he_o must_v break_v his_o own_o many_o time_n it_o be_v so_o and_o so_o when_o they_o come_v and_o make_v complaint_n of_o the_o weakness_n and_o infirmity_n of_o their_o body_n it_o may_v be_v they_o be_v affect_v and_o they_o will_v help_v ah_o but_o it_o be_v beyond_o their_o power_n and_o so_o when_o a_o poor_a soul_n come_v and_o complain_v of_o distress_n of_o mind_n and_o show_v the_o wound_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o lay_v they_o open_a it_o may_v be_v godly_a friend_n may_v pity_v

therefore_o after_o all_o it_o will_v go_v away_o unsatisfied_a in_o all_o these_o cause_n they_o that_o will_v help_v you_o if_o they_o can_v they_o may_v say_v as_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n 2_o

your_o complaint_n to_o man_n sometime_o it_o fall_v out_o so_o that_o instead_o of_o ease_n from_o under_o your_o burden_n your_o burden_n be_v increase_v sometime_o man_n may_v add_v to_o the_o

burden_n of_o the_o afflict_a when_o they_o make_v their_o complaint_n wilful_o through_o pride_n and_o disdain_n and_o covetousness_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v when_o david_n send_v to_o nabal_n he_o be_v in_o a_o great_a strait_n for_o provision_n and_o he_o send_v to_o nabal_n in_o his_o strait_n for_o relief_n and_o he_o send_v he_o a_o churlish_a answer_n who_o be_v david_n and_o the_o son_n of_o jesse_n i_o know_v he_o not_o shall_v i_o send_v my_o corn_n and_o my_o ox_n that_o i_o have_v kill_v for_o my_o shearer_n and_o give_v it_o to_o he_o i_o know_v he_o not_o and_o you_o know_v what_o judas_n do_v meet_v withal_o when_o he_o go_v to_o the_o pharisee_n and_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v in_o betray_v the_o innocent_a blood_n what_o be_v that_o to_o we_o a_o bargain_n be_v a_o

they_o speak_v that_o which_o aggravate_v his_o sorrow_n and_o he_o go_v and_o make_v away_o himself_o so_o that_o i_o say_v in_o time_n of_o affliction_n faith_n cause_v a_o soul_n to_o go_v to_o

no_o more_o than_o the_o stone_n in_o the_o street_n but_o the_o lord_n jesus_n he_o be_v not_o without_o compassion_n great_a bowel_n of_o compassion_n towards_o his_o people_n he_o can_v be_v

so_o he_o have_v a_o will_n he_o be_v always_o willing_a to_o do_v good_a to_o poor_a creature_n that_o come_v to_o he_o man_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v they_o be_v not_o always_o willing_a they_o may_v give_v you_o a_o parcel_n of_o good_a word_n but_o give_v you_o not_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v needful_a now_o christ_n he_o never_o put_v off_o his_o people_n with_o good_a word_n though_o one_o good_a word_n from_o christ_n be_v more_o worth_n than_o all_o that_o man_n can_v do_v for_o you_o but_o christ_n he_o will_v not_o give_v you_o good_a word_n alone_o but_o as_o he_o open_v

therefore_o it_o be_v that_o he_o call_v poor_a creature_n to_o he_o you_o may_v see_v his_o willingness_n by_o the_o invitation_n that_o he_o give_v to_o all_o poor_a creature_n that_o be_v under_o
