neither_o we_o think_v on_o nor_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v bring_v a_o evil_a report_n upon_o we_o just_o for_o we_o hear_v what_o our_o apostle_n say_v whatsoever_o thing_n be_v of_o good_a

therefore_o careful_o look_v unto_o the_o thing_n whereon_o we_o set_v our_o heart_n or_o whereunto_o we_o set_v our_o hand_n be_v it_o a_o thing_n of_o good_a report_n which_o may_v make_v we_o well_o speak_v of_o among_o man_n let_v we_o then_o think_v on_o it_o and_o do_v it_o that_o so_o the_o truth_n which_o we_o profess_v may_v be_v well_o speak_v of_o but_o be_v it_o a_o thing_n of_o

exhortation_n or_o rather_o in_o the_o exhortation_n be_v that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v the_o philippian_n to_o think_v on_o these_o thing_n and_o to_o do_v these_o thing_n for_o these_o two_o

will_v therefore_o have_v the_o philippian_n to_o think_v on_o these_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o enter_v into_o a_o diligent_a consideration_n of_o these_o thing_n with_o themselves_o and_o in_o their_o heart_n to_o love_n and_o affect_v they_o and_o likewise_o to_o do_v these_o thing_n because_o it_o will_v be_v to_o no_o great_a purpose_n that_o in_o their_o heart_n they_o shall_v love_v and_o affect_v these_o thing_n and_o enter_v into_o a_o serious_a consideration_n of_o they_o unless_o also_o they_o shall_v practice_v they_o in_o their_o life_n whence_o i_o observe_v this_o lesson_n for_o we_o that_o unto_o the_o performance_n of_o christian_a piety_n and_o holy_a duty_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o think_v on_o serious_o with_o ourselves_o and_o in_o our_o heart_n to_o love_n and_o affect_v whatsoever_o thing_n be_v true_a etc._n etc._n unless_o also_o in_o our_o outward_a action_n we_o follow_v whatsoever_o thing_n be_v true_a etc._n etc._n both_o in_o our_o heart_n we_o must_v think_v on_o and_o love_n and_o affect_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o in_o the_o word_n of_o our_o mouth_n in_o the_o work_n of_o our_o hand_n and_o in_o the_o way_n of_o our_o life_n we_o must_v show_v forth_o the_o same_o heart_n and_o hand_n must_v go_v together_o if_o the_o heart_n indite_v a_o good_a matter_n the_o tongue_n must_v be_v the_o pen_n of_o a_o ready_a writer_n if_o the_o heart_n believe_v unto_o righteousness_n the_o tongue_n must_v confess_v unto_o salvation_n and_o if_o the_o knowledge_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o accompany_v salvation_n be_v in_o the_o understanding_n there_o must_v also_o be_v a_o holy_a practice_n of_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o life_n and_o conversation_n and_o therefore_o david_n pray_v 19.14_o psal_n 19.14_o that_o both_o
