be_v to_o observe_v diverse_a point_n worthy_a of_o our_o diligent_a observation_n and_o of_o our_o careful_a consideration_n first_o we_o be_v to_o mark_v how_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o offence_n of_o onesimus_n and_o of_o his_o former_a state_n before_o his_o conversion_n do_v mitigate_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o sin_n by_o the_o mildness_n of_o the_o word_n for_o whereas_o he_o may_v have_v call_v he_o a_o thief_n a_o rogue_n and_o a_o runagate_n he_o do_v allay_v it_o and_o express_v it_o under_o a_o gentle_a name_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v better_o afterward_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o when_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o sinner_n that_o be_v convert_v unto_o christ_n true_o and_o have_v repent_v of_o their_o sin_n unfeigned_o we_o shall_v deal_v favourable_o with_o they_o we_o shall_v not_o rack_n and_o stretch_v their_o offence_n but_o after_o a_o sort_n cover_v they_o with_o the_o cloak_n of_o charity_n and_o bury_v they_o in_o the_o grave_n of_o forgetfulness_n second_o we_o may_v observe_v how_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o his_o conversion_n and_o regeneration_n do_v set_v it_o out_o to_o the_o full_a not_o only_o that_o philemon_n shall_v be_v persuade_v but_o that_o onesimus_n may_v be_v comfort_v wherefore_o he_o do_v not_o only_o say_v that_o he_o be_v become_v profitable_a but_o very_o profitable_a or_o exceed_v profitable_a and_o he_o add_v not_o only_o very_o profitable_a to_o philemon_n but_o to_o himself_o even_o to_o they_o both_o whereof_o paul_n have_v experience_n already_o philemon_n shall_v have_v hereafter_o which_o teach_v we_o to_o use_v all_o good_a and_o love_a mean_n to_o strengthen_v such_o as_o be_v new_o convert_v and_o to_o remember_v for_o their_o comfort_n and_o encouragement_n such_o good_a thing_n as_o appear_v to_o have_v be_v in_o they_o not_o to_o diminish_v or_o lessen_v they_o but_o full_o to_o express_v and_o declare_v they_o to_o other_o that_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v in_o their_o call_n and_o they_o themselves_o may_v be_v strengthen_v in_o all_o well_o do_v thirdlie_o we_o see_v in_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o first_o reason_n that_o man_n be_v great_o move_v to_o do_v any_o thing_n by_o hope_n of_o receive_v profit_n and_o commodity_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n not_o only_o to_o induce_v profane_a and_o ungodly_a man_n to_o commit_v wickedness_n but_o to_o persuade_v the_o

to_o lead_v we_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o whereby_o we_o ought_v to_o learn_v that_o in_o move_a man_n to_o well_o do_v we_o may_v lawful_o lay_v before_o they_o the_o hope_n of_o heaven_n and_o assurance_n of_o profit_n yea_o all_o man_n for_o their_o better_a encouragement_n in_o the_o work_n of_o godliness_n may_v have_v respect_n to_o the_o profit_n of_o their_o labour_n and_o the_o

of_o our_o own_o profit_n shall_v not_o be_v neglect_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n 9_o apostle_n tit._n 3_o 8_o 9_o move_v all_o that_o have_v believe_v to_o be_v careful_a to_o show_v
