by_o our_o flesh_n that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o god_n can_v have_v his_o dominion_n in_o we_o unless_o we_o use_v great_a force_n to_o overcome_v and_o subdue_v ourselves_o to_o he_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v some_o nowadays_o yea_o and_o a_o great_a some_o who_o without_o take_v much_o pain_n i_o will_v not_o say_v without_o take_v any_o atal_a cease_v not_o for_o all_o that_o to_o brag_v afterward_o that_o they_o be_v of_o god_n kingdom_n but_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o for_o see_v that_o god_n kingdom_n be_v righteousness_n peace_n and_o joy_n through_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o say_v saint_n paul_n 17._o how_o can_v it_o have_v place_n in_o they_o which_o suffer_v unrighteousness_n to_o reign_v in_o they_o and_o very_o it_o be_v a_o suffering_n of_o it_o to_o reign_v when_o they_o repress_v it_o not_o according_a also_o as_o they_o show_v in_o effect_n by_o their_o conversation_n which_o be_v no_o better_a than_o the_o conversation_n of_o those_o who_o they_o condemn_v i_o know_v well_o they_o have_v their_o shift_n for_o it_o say_v that_o we_o have_v no_o power_n atal_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v flesh_n still_o as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o we_o can_v proceed_v far_o forward_o in_o this_o great_a frailty_n and_o weakness_n of_o our_o nature_n but_o that_o christ_n will_v supply_v all_o our_o want_n and_o not_o lay_v our_o sin_n to_o our_o charge_n yea_o very_o but_o when_o they_o say_v so_o or_o rather_o flatter_v themselves_o after_o that_o manner_n perceive_v they_o not_o how_o they_o disgrade_v themselves_o from_o the_o degree_n of_o christian_n for_o if_o they_o can_v obey_v god_n and_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o command_v they_o have_v not_o christ_n spirit_n 5._o and_o if_o they_o have_v not_o christ_n spirit_n then_o be_v they_o not_o christian_n saint_n paul_n say_v well_o that_o the_o flesh_n neither_o will_n nor_o can_v obey_v god_n law_n but_o 9_o yet_o he_o add_v therewith_o that_o christian_n be_v not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n you_o be_v not_o in_o the_o flesh_n say_v he_o but_o in_o the_o spirit_n at_o leastwise_o if_o god_n spirit_n be_v in_o you_o 8._o whereupon_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o they_o which_o can_v obey_v god_n be_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o those_o say_v he_o can_v please_v god_n which_o reason_n may_v serve_v also_o to_o this_o say_n of_o they_o that_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v flesh_n for_o if_o we_o be_v always_o flesh_n we_o shall_v always_o fleshlie_o be_v still_o unchristianlike_a because_o that_o to_o be_v flesh_n and_o to_o be_v christian_n be_v thing_n that_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n match_v together_o i_o mean_v to_o be_v flesh_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o to_o make_v none_o other_o trade_n than_o to_o follow_v a_o man_n own_o lust_n for_o otherwise_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o flesh_n be_v still_o in_o we_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v wrap_v in_o this_o mortal_a body_n to_o provoke_v we_o unto_o evil_a and_o to_o make_v war_n against_o the_o spirit_n but_o not_o to_o follow_v the_o froward_a motion_n of_o it_o any_o more_o for_o this_o stand_v true_a that_o whosoever_o follow_v they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v register_v in_o the_o number_n of_o christian_n and_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n threaten_v everlasting_a death_n to_o such_o as_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n 13_o special_o after_o they_o have_v be_v teach_v that_o they_o be_v always_o subject_a to_o damnation_n as_o touch_v our_o frailty_n and_o weakness_n wherewith_o they_o think_v to_o prevail_v continual_o against_o such_o as_o press_v they_o with_o their_o duty_n sure_o i_o confess_v with_o they_o that_o it_o be_v great_a and_o such_o as_o make_v even_o the_o holy_a to_o be_v overthrow_v and_o vanquish_v oftentimes_o by_o satan_n and_o their_o own_o flesh_n which_o thing_n they_o lament_v and_o bewail_v but_o as_o for_o to_o make_v a_o shield_n or_o a_o defence_n of_o it_o to_o soothe_v themselves_o in_o their_o vice_n and_o to_o take_v licence_n to_o follow_v their_o lust_n it_o be_v for_o such_o folk_n to_o do_v as_o seek_v all_o manner_n of_o occasion_n to_o do_v evil_a and_o to_o rid_v away_o all_o regard_n of_o upright_o deal_v &_o righteousness_n which_o thing_n can_v agree_v with_o true_a christian_n who_o whole_a study_n be_v to_o maintain_v themselves_o in_o good_a work_n as_o they_o that_o know_v how_o il_fw-mi it_o beseem_v those_o which_o profess_v themselves_o to_o be_v make_v clean_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n 14._o to_o turn_v back_o to_o the_o defile_n of_o themselves_o again_o moreover_o to_o say_v that_o christ_n will_v supply_v all_o our_o want_n and_o not_o charge_v we_o with_o our_o sin_n whereunto_o we_o have_v yield_v ourselves_o so_o free_o and_o willing_o after_o we_o have_v know_v he_o seem_v in_o my_o judgement_n to_o tend_v to_o none_o other_o thing_n than_o to_o make_v christ_n a_o cloak_n for_o our_o vice_n and_o to_o take_v occasion_n of_o his_o grace_n to_o flatter_v and_o maintain_v ourselves_o in_o they_o which_o can_v be_v do_v without_o manifest_a wickedness_n for_o see_v that_o christ_n make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o grace_n upon_o condition_n that_o we_o shall_v lead_v a_o life_n both_o pure_a holy_a and_o beseem_v he_o and_o to_o bring_v the_o same_o to_o pass_v do_v promise_v we_o his_o spirit_n so_o we_o ask_v it_o of_o he_o in_o faith_n if_o we_o do_v the_o contrary_a it_o will_v not_o be_v without_o do_v he_o wrong_n wherethrough_a it_o will_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o

save_o those_o which_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o god_n be_v light_a 9_o but_o i_o beseech_v these_o man_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n to_o consider_v these_o thing_n advisedlie_o and_o to_o

21_o neither_o word_n nor_o ceremony_n do_v prove_v folk_n to_o be_v christian_n child_n of_o god_n faithful_a one_o member_n of_o christ_n and_o choose_v of_o god_n which_o be_v title_n wherewith_o

may_v well_o talk_v of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n and_o he_o may_v well_o have_v the_o sacrament_n and_o all_o the_o godly_a ceremony_n that_o can_v be_v devise_v and_o yet_o all_o shall_v
