those_o that_o be_v his_o subject_n be_v son_n of_o peace_n luk._n 10.6_o now_o i_o shall_v return_v to_o the_o second_o use_n which_o i_o draw_v from_o the_o 11._o chapter_n of_o john_n and_o i_o shall_v conclude_v with_o that_o of_o martha_n and_o mary_n now_o though_o martha_n have_v receive_v christ_n into_o her_o house_n nay_o christ_n have_v enter_v himself_o into_o her_o heart_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o her_o confession_n john_n 11.27_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o martha_n be_v cumber_v and_o trouble_v and_o distract_v about_o many_o thing_n which_o be_v below_o jesus_n christ_n &_o this_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o many_o a_o poor_a soul_n to_o be_v like_a unto_o martha_n in_o be_v angry_a with_o mary_n for_o sit_v at_o jesus_n foot_n and_o she_o hear_v his_o word_n for_o christ_n have_v allure_v she_o to_o choose_v the_o good_a part_n or_o the_o most_o excellent_a way_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o be_v the_o most_o excellent_a way_n not_o to_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o world_n but_o the_o voice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o mary_n do_v luke_n 10.38_o 39_o 40_o 41_o 42._o sect._n 7_o now_o we_o have_v many_o christian_n in_o these_o our_o day_n that_o be_v like_o martha_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a they_o will_v command_v jesus_n christ_n to_o send_v away_o those_o that_o sit_v at_o his_o foot_n and_o hear_v he_o who_o be_v the_o live_a word_n of_o life_n and_o like_v unto_o martha_n they_o will_v have_v christ_n to_o send_v away_o those_o that_o be_v like_a unto_o mary_n to_o serve_v with_o they_o in_o their_o low_a acquaintance_n with_o god_n as_o some_o of_o our_o learned_a be_v and_o other_o as_o well_o as_o they_o that_o have_v but_o little_a and_o low_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n and_o very_o little_a acquaintance_n with_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o can_v understand_v those_o that_o sit_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o jesus_n nay_o in_o the_o bosom_n of_o christ_n and_o do_v taste_v of_o his_o sweet_a grace_n now_o those_o that_o be_v weak_a in_o christianity_n like_o martha_n do_v not_o understand_v why_o mary_n sit_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o jesus_n but_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o think_v much_o and_o foolish_o to_o say_v they_o be_v look_v after_o new_a light_n they_o have_v get_v some_o notion_n into_o their_o brain_n they_o be_v possess_v with_o some_o whimsy_n or_o other_o some_o new_a doctrine_n have_v take_v hold_n on_o they_o now_o such_o poor_a silly_a man_n and_o woman_n be_v cumber_v and_o trouble_v about_o many_o thing_n which_o be_v below_o christ_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v as_o martha_n do_v unto_o jesus_n send_v they_o away_o bid_v they_o come_v to_o we_o and_o serve_v as_o we_o do_v and_o be_v as_o we_o be_v now_o mark_v for_o this_o be_v worth_a the_o note_n the_o spiritual_a evangelical_n christian_n that_o be_v like_a unto_o mary_n and_o sit_v close_o unto_o jesus_n christ_n even_o at_o his_o foot_n with_o his_o head_n in_o the_o bosom_n of_o christ_n like_v unto_o his_o belove_a disciple_n and_o he_o do_v taste_v of_o the_o spiritual_a sweetness_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n who_o be_v god_n
