to_o declare_v himself_o our_o father_n and_o saviour_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n that_o he_o will_v not_o only_o grant_v this_o grace_n to_o we_o but_o to_o all_o people_n and_o

set_v before_o you_o this_o day_n that_o you_o may_v learn_v they_o and_o take_v heed_n to_o observe_v they_o 2_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n make_v a_o covenant_n with_o we_o in_o horeb._n 3_o the_o lord_n make_v not_o this_o covenant_n with_o our_o father_n but_o with_o we_o which_o be_v all_o alive_a at_o this_o day_n 4_o the_o lord_n talk_v with_o you_o face_n to_o face_n on_o the_o mount_n out_o of_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o fire_n we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o how_o great_o moses_n have_v labour_v to_o make_v the_o people_n perceive_v the_o majesty_n which_o be_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v receive_v it_o with_o all_o reverence_n and_o fear_n for_o although_o man_n protest_v that_o they_o will_v obey_v god_n for_o so_o nature_n constrain_v they_o yet_o can_v they_o not_o order_v themselves_o and_o their_o do_n according_o to_o his_o word_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a true_a touchstone_n to_o know_v whether_o we_o be_v obedient_a to_o god_n or_o no._n but_o herein_o be_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o world_n see_v that_o although_o all_o will_v confess_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v without_o any_o gainsay_n yet_o shall_v one_o find_v scarce_o one_o among_o a_o hundred_o which_o willing_o humble_v himself_o to_o yield_v unto_o it_o that_o authority_n it_o deserve_v and_o why_o be_v this_o sure_o because_o we_o consider_v not_o of_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n which_o declare_v itself_o therein_o see_v then_o how_o moses_n not_o without_o cause_n so_o often_o heretofore_o have_v wain_v the_o people_n that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v of_o such_o majesty_n towards_o we_o that_o all_o creature_n shall_v tremble_v at_o it_o and_o now_o again_o he_o add_v a_o confirmation_n of_o the_o same_o matter_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o lord_n talke●_n face_n to_o face_n on_o the_o mount_n out_o of_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o fire_n as_o if_o bee_n shall_v say_v you_o have_v no_o cause_n now_o to_o doubt_v whether_o the_o doctrine_n which_o i_o propose_v unto_o you_o be_v of_o god_n or_o of_o man_n for_o it_o be_v sufficient_o prove_v god_n have_v declare_v himself_o unto_o you_o by_o plain_a and_o visible_a sign_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o you_o may_v well_o perceive_v it_o be_v he_o which_o speak_v now_o than_o we_o see_v the_o intent_n and_o meaning_n of_o moses_n but_o before_o we_o pass_v any_o further_a one_o may_v here_o make_v a_o question_n how_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n speak_v face_n to_o face_n see_v that_o man_n can_v comprehend_v his_o infinite_a glory_n for_o with_o what_o eye_n can_v we_o contemplate_v his_o substance_n &_o be_v we_o be_v so_o frail_a &_o weak_a that_o if_o god_n shall_v but_o show_v one_o beam_n of_o his_o brightness_n behold_v we_o shall_v be_v all_o dazzle_a &_o confound_v therewith_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o know_v how_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o can_v see_v god_n face_n to_o face_n 12_o until_o we_o be_v renew_v which_o shall_v not_o be_v until_o the_o latter_a day_n for_o now_o say_v s._n paul_n we_o see_v as_o in_o a_o glass_n &_o in_o part_n even_o obscure_o &_o unperfect_o 18._o which_o more_o be_v he_o say_v in_o a_o other_o place_n that_o the_o gospel_n at_o this_o day_n do_v present_a unto_o we_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o we_o may_v see_v it_o but_o the_o law_n be_v dark_a and_o obscure_a and_o have_v avail_v which_o hinder_v our_o father_n to_o know_v god_n in_o so_o plain_a and_o familiar_a a_o manner_n as_o we_o do_v at_o this_o day_n but_o all_o this_o agree_v very_o well_o for_o when_o we_o make_v a_o comparison_n of_o the_o law_n with_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v certain_a we_o shall_v find_v this_o which_o saint_n paul_n speak_v to_o be_v most_o true_a for_o then_o god_n declare_v not_o himself_o in_o so_o familiar_a a_o fashion_n as_o he_o do_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n ●_o who_o be_v the_o lively_a image_n of_o he_o now_o a_o day_n therefore_o there_o be_v lay_v open_a unto_o we_o the_o great_a treasure_n of_o wisdom_n in_o that_o god_n call_v we_o to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n &_o show_v that_o he_o hold_v we_o for_o his_o child_n &_o heir_n now_o this_o be_v not_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n and_o yet_o although_o at_o this_o day_n we_o have_v such_o a_o knowledge_n and_o so_o plain_a &_o manifest_a yet_o remain_v that_o always_o true_a which_o we_o have_v allege_v that_o we_o see_v but_o in_o part_n and_o why_o for_o we_o be_v not_o yet_o partaker_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n neither_o can_v we_o come_v near_o it_o but_o it_o behove_v that_o he_o show_v it_o according_a to_o our_o rudeness_n and_o infirmity_n yet_o notwithstanding_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n god_n have_v appear_v unto_o mortal_a man_n howbeit_o this_o be_v not_o to_o show_v himself_o as_o he_o be_v but_o as_o the_o weakness_n and_o infirmity_n of_o man_n may_v bear_v it_o we_o must_v then_o note_v that_o god_n be_v not_o know_v to_o the_o father_n neither_o appear_v at_o this_o day_n in_o his_o own_o be_v but_o he_o appli_v himself_o to_o we_o in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o show_v himself_o for_o our_o measure_n and_o ability_n to_o make_v we_o perceive_v that_o he_o be_v present_a and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o moses_n say_v here_o that_o god_n speak_v face_n to_o face_n for_o he_o understand_v hereby_o that_o the_o people_n have_v not_o some_o conjectural_a sign_n that_o they_o may_v doubt_v of_o he_o or_o conceive_v only_o some_o small_a opinion_n of_o god_n but_o that_o they_o have_v a_o certain_a and_o infallible_a warrant_n whereby_o they_o may_v in_o this_o sort_n conclude_v behold_v god_n have_v so_o show_v himself_o to_o we_o that_o our_o faith_n need_v not_o waver_v and_o be_v doubtful_a and_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v propose_v unto_o we_o in_o his_o name_n ought_v no_o long_o to_o be_v dispute_v of_o whether_o it_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v or_o refuse_v and_o why_o for_o god_n have_v deliver_v unto_o we_o a_o sure_a and_o certain_a mark_n which_o can_v not_o beguile_v nor_o leave_v we_o in_o doubt_n but_o that_o this_o doctrine_n proceed_v from_o he_o now_o we_o understand_v the_o meaning_n of_o moses_n from_o whence_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v a_o good_a lesson_n that_o be_v that_o if_o god_n declare_v not_o himself_o unto_o we_o after_o so_o high_a &_o glorious_a a_o manner_n as_o our_o lust_n desire_v let_v we_o know_v that_o he_o do_v it_o for_o our_o profit_n and_o salvation_n for_o let_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o our_o infirmity_n and_o it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o abate_v that_o over_o boldness_n to_o the_o which_o our_o nature_n always_o stir_v we_o for_o we_o will_v inquire_v and_o seek_v after_o the_o secret_n of_o god_n without_o end_n or_o measure_n and_o why_o be_v that_o very_o because_o we_o consider_v not_o our_o own_o power_n and_o ability_n wherefore_o let_v we_o praise_v the_o great_a goodness_n of_o our_o god_n for_o that_o he_o in_o favour_n so_o consider_v of_o we_o &_o regard_v our_o weakness_n that_o he_o be_v content_a to_o hide_v his_o glory_n ▪_o lest_o we_o shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o thereof_o for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v we_o can_v not_o bear_v it_o be_v so_o frail_a &_o weak_a as_o we_o be_v and_o here_o withal_o let_v we_o know_v that_o when_o god_n give_v we_o some_o evident_a sign_n and_o token_n of_o his_o presence_n there_o rest_v then_o no_o excuse_n if_o we_o yield_v not_o to_o he_o the_o honour_n and_o do_v he_o the_o homage_n he_o be_v worthy_a of_o let_v we_o not_o then_o desire_v that_o god_n come_v in_o his_o inestimable_a glory_n that_o the_o heaven_n cleave_v in_o sunder_o that_o all_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n appear_v but_o when_o the_o lord_n any_o way_n declare_v that_o it_o be_v he_o which_o speak_v let_v it_o suffice_v we_o and_o let_v we_o humble_v ourselves_o incontinent_o for_o if_o then_o we_o will_v forslow_v to_o yield_v he_o our_o duty_n we_o shall_v be_v sharp_o reprove_v for_o turn_v our_o back_n to_o he_o when_o he_o show_v his_o face_n to_o we_o it_o be_v true_a

be_v the_o child_n of_o adam_n by_o nature_n curse_v and_o inheritor_n of_o death_n we_o have_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o sin_n &_o so_o consequent_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v accurse_v before_o god_n let_v man_n please_v &_o magnify_v themselves_o as_o they_o listen_v yet_o behold_v their_o birth_n behold_v their_o nobility_n they_o be_v but_o bondslave_n of_o satan_n they_o have_v a_o sink_v &_o

heaven_n they_o be_v give_v over_o to_o all_o misery_n &_o wretchedness_n now_o our_o lord_n and_o god_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o son_n have_v hence_o deliver_v we_o he_o have_v not_o send_v a_o moses_n as_o to_o the_o people_n of_o ancient_a time_n but_o not_o spare_v his_o only_a son_n he_o have_v deliver_v he_o to_o death_n for_o we_o be_v then_o ransom_v with_o so_o dear_a and_o

that_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o egypt_n be_v a_o house_n of_o bondage_n what_o thraldom_n and_o servitude_n be_v this_o when_o satan_n hold_v we_o in_o his_o bond_n and_o under_o his_o tyranny_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o we_o have_v no_o mean_a to_o escape_v death_n that_o we_o be_v exclude_v from_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n that_o god_n be_v our_o enemy_n and_o adversary_n now_o be_v deliver_v from_o all_o this_o be_v not_o our_o redemption_n far_o more_o great_a and_o excellent_a than_o this_o whereof_o moses_n here_o speak_v so_o in_o steed_n that_o it_o be_v sa●ed_v to_o the_o ancient_a people_n thy_o god_n have_v deliver_v thou_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n it_o be_v now_o say_v that_o we_o be_v redeem_v from_o the_o bondage_n of_o satan_n to_o live_v unto_o the_o

and_o why_o so_o the_o lord_n jesus_n therefore_o die_v &_o rise_v again_o &_o revive_v 9_o that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n both_o of_o the_o quick_a &_o dead_a it_o be_v then_o good_a reason_n that_o

of_o this_o benefit_n for_o he_o have_v gather_v we_o to_o himself_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v of_o his_o flock_n and_o inheritance_n it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o be_v that_o undefiled_a
