you_o shall_v find_v they_o to_o be_v as_o wild_a beast_n and_o enemy_n of_o their_o own_o salvation_n you_o shall_v find_v they_o stark_o mad_a against_o god_n and_o against_o all_o right_a too_o

under_o satan_n dominion_n even_o from_o their_o mother_n womb_n loe_o what_o many_o man_n allege_v in_o hope_n to_o wash_v their_o hand_n yea_o and_o they_o be_v not_o content_v too_o justify_v themselves_o by_o vain_a shift_n but_o they_o do_v also_o rail_v against_o god_n as_o though_o he_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o damnation_n but_o s._n paul_n to_o prevent_v such_o sâ—aunders_n say_v that_o they_o which_o be_v under_o the_o bondage_n of_o satan_n and_o of_o sin_n cease_v not_o for_o all_o that_o too_o be_v condemn_v by_o good_a right_n for_o they_o be_v not_o constrain_v thereunto_o by_o force_n they_o be_v subject_a in_o deed_n but_o that_o be_v with_o their_o own_o good_a will._n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o say_v that_o even_o such_o as_o be_v bring_v back_o again_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v walk_v in_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v too_o say_v that_o before_o god_n have_v change_v they_o and_o bring_v they_o too_o his_o obedience_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n they_o walk_v in_o their_o own_o wicked_a lust_n true_a it_o be_v that_o man_n will_v grant_v their_o nature_n too_o be_v sinful_a but_o yet_o they_o say_v it_o suffice_v that_o the_o will_v be_v otherwise_o all_o man_n will_v grant_v that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n which_o put_v the_o difference_n between_o vice_n and_o virtue_n but_o when_o the_o philosopher_n speak_v after_o that_o fashion_n they_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o we_o have_v a_o frank_a and_o free_a will._n and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o deceive_v they_o because_o they_o

with_o the_o flesh_n too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v that_o sin_n reach_v throughout_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v no_o piece_n of_o we_o clean_o and_o pure_a wherintoo_o infection_n be_v not_o

tempt_v unto_o it_o and_o yet_o nevertheless_o that_o if_o we_o harken_v unto_o reason_n and_o bridle_v our_o lust_n by_o rule_v they_o well_o than_o we_o shall_v see_v plain_o that_o we_o be_v not_o altogether_o unable_a too_o do_v good_a and_o so_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v that_o man_n free_a will_n be_v not_o of_o such_o force_n as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o beginning_n but_o that_o

after_o our_o own_o thought_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o more_o horrible_a confusion_n than_o that_o will_v be_v so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o man_n be_v not_o humble_v here_o by_o half_n too_o confess_v only_o their_o frailty_n and_o that_o they_o have_v partly_o need_v too_o be_v succour_v and_o help_v at_o godâ—_n hand_n but_o we_o see_v they_o be_v utter_o damn_v

then_o let_v we_o on_o the_o one_o side_n yield_v ourselves_o guilty_a assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o be_v just_o bereave_v of_o all_o god_n grace_n in_o the_o person_n of_o adam_n and_o again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n let_v we_o not_o take_v the_o same_o for_o a_o excuse_n in_o hope_n too_o escape_v by_o such_o shift_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v we_o be_v not_o the_o bondslave_n of_o sin_n nor_o we_o ourselves_o any_o whit_n too_o blame_v for_o it_o because_o we_o be_v hold_v down_o in_o satan_n snare_n and_o net_n even_o from_o our_o birth_n but_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o consider_v

spiritual_a life_n of_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o god_n son_n see_v then_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n do_v as_o it_o be_v from_o hand_n too_o hand_n show_v we_o that_o he_o give_v we_o his_o

upon_o the_o lord_n supper_n to_o confirm_v ourselves_o the_o better_a in_o god_n grace_n so_o little_o do_v any_o man_n set_v his_o mind_n that_o way_n that_o if_o baptism_n be_v minnistre_v in_o

pledge_n of_o he_o wherein_o he_o show_v and_o witness_v that_o he_o will_v be_v our_o father_n you_o see_v the_o turk_n have_v circumcision_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o yet_o be_v it_o nothing_o worth_a because_o there_o be_v no_o more_o any_o promise_n of_o god_n go_v with_o it_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o come_v of_o adam_n race_n as_o well_o as_o they_o wherefore_o have_v

they_o save_v that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o too_o be_v as_o mirror_n of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n so_o much_o the_o more_o therefore_o behove_v it_o we_o too_o walk_v in_o awe_n and_o wareness_n

it_o for_o a_o special_a point_n when_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o circumcision_n and_o uncircumcision_n 15._o for_o although_o he_o say_v in_o other_o place_n that_o circumcision_n be_v

as_o god_n ordain_v it_o and_o so_o long_o as_o the_o jew_n use_v it_o holy_o it_o be_v a_o sure_a warrant_n to_o they_o of_o god_n adoption_n as_o if_o he_o have_v cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o the_o filthiness_n that_o be_v in_o adam_n race_n and_o appropry_v they_o unto_o himself_o after_o he_o have_v say_v so_o he_o add_v that_o they_o be_v without_o christ_n and_o without_o promise_n here_o he_o show_v that_o the_o sacrament_n take_v and_o borrow_v their_o force_n of_o god_n word_n for_o if_o there_o be_v nomore_o but_o the_o bare_a sign_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o great_a importance_n if_o circumcision_n have_v be_v give_v too_o the_o jew_n without_o any_o doctrine_n or_o instruction_n too_o what_o purpose_n have_v it_o serve_v sure_o they_o have_v be_v never_o the_o

will_v say_v confirm_v that_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n join_v here_o the_o common_a weal_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o instrument_n of_o god_n promise_n and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n all_o together_o howbeit_o in_o speak_v of_o the_o common_a weal_n of_o israel_n he_o show_v that_o god_n have_v choose_v one_o certain_a lineage_n which_o he_o will_v have_v too_o be_v holy_a and_o so_o be_v it_o too_o be_v conclude_v that_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v unholy_a in_o speak_v of_o the_o instrument_n of_o the_o promise_n he_o show_v as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o that_o we_o must_v not_o look_v upon_o circumcision_n in_o itself_o but_o we_o must_v direct_v it_o too_o the_o right_a end_n of_o it_o it_o become_v we_o too_o know_v wherefore_o god_n will_v have_v it_o use_v among_o the_o jew_n for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v but_o a_o ape_n toy_n as_o the_o number_n of_o fond_a devotion_n which_o the_o gentile_n have_v whereby_o they_o hope_v too_o have_v have_v holiness_n but_o all_o of_o it_o be_v but_o abuse_v and_o trumpery_n because_o they_o have_v no_o promise_n of_o god_n likewise_o they_o say_v now_o adays_o in_o the_o papacy_n that_o they_o have_v many_o sacrament_n and_o therewithal_o as_o many_o murlimewes_n and_o gewgaw_n as_o can_v be_v but_o all_o that_o god_n disallow_v be_v but_o pelt_a trash_n and_o why_o for_o there_o be_v no_o word_n that_o sanctify_v they_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o too_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o the_o sacrament_n we_o must_v always_o be_v teach_v they_o by_o god_n doctrine_n and_o thereby_o

as_o ourselves_o then_o if_o we_o think_v too_o be_v allow_v of_o god_n and_o charity_n reign_v not_o in_o we_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o the_o world_n may_v like_v well_o of_o we_o but_o all_o our_o

work_v all_o our_o work_v by_o she_o now_o then_o see_v that_o love_n be_v the_o true_a perfection_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o of_o all_o god_n child_n let_v we_o see_v what_o it_o import_v for_o if_o a_o man_n brag_v that_o he_o have_v it_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n have_v neither_o lowliness_n nor_o gentleness_n nor_o patience_n he_o make_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o liar_n who_o not_o

show_v we_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o it_o namely_o first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o must_v beat_v down_o this_o pride_n which_o beguile_v we_o and_o make_v we_o doss_n with_o our_o horn_n against_o god_n insomuch_o that_o it_o be_v right_o hard_a for_o we_o too_o be_v low_o mind_v towards_o man_n when_o we_o can_v hold_v ourselves_o meek_o in_o obedience_n under_o god_n now_o then_o let_v we_o fight_v in_o such_o wise_n as_o all_o pride_n may_v be_v correct_v in_o we_o and_o therewithal_o enforce_v ourselves_o always_o too_o humility_n that_o we_o may_v be_v kind_a heart_a and_o fellowlyke_a with_o the_o faithful_a which_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o bear_v one_o with_o another_o the_o very_a heathen_a man_n have_v the_o skill_n too_o say_v that_o if_o we_o have_v the_o wit_n and_o discretion_n too_o see_v the_o vice_n that_o be_v in_o ourselves_o we_o shall_v be_v patient_a towards_o other_o for_o why_o i_o have_v need_n too_o be_v bear_v withal_o myself_o and_o if_o i_o do_v not_o the_o

take_v hold_v of_o the_o heavenly_a life_n which_o nevertheless_o be_v incomprehensible_a too_o man_n understanding_n &_o to_o be_v short_a 13._o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o extend_v high_a &_o low_a and_o deep_a and_o wide_o as_o we_o have_v see_v herteoofore_o now_o than_o if_o on_o the_o one_o side_n we_o consider_v what_o faith_n be_v &_o on_o the_o other_o side_n enter_v into_o ourselves_o and_o examine_v ourselves_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o find_v ourselves_o utter_o destitute_a of_o all_o goodness_n it_o be_v good_a reason_n we_o shall_v confess_v that_o until_o god_n give_v we_o faith_n we_o have_v no_o faith_n at_o all_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v upon_o this_o text_n as_o much_o be_v too_o be_v say_v of_o charity_n for_o be_v it_o not_o apparent_a that_o every_o man_n be_v wed_v too_o the_o love_n of_o himself_o â–ª_o and_o that_o 〈◊〉_d affection_n â—arye_v we_o away_o so_o as_o we_o seek_v 〈◊〉_d own_o profit_n continual_o with_o the_o hindrance_n of_o other_o man_n and_o yet_o this_o lust_n and_o 〈…〉_o we_o can_v love_v our_o neighbour_n but_o will_v rather_o oppress_v they_o so_o then_o we_o must_v needs_o have_v charity_n from_o elsewhere_o and_o god_n must_v break_v the_o curse_a inclination_n that_o be_v in_o we_o namely_o the_o over_o excessive_a love_a of_o ourselves_o and_o moreover_o when_o we_o have_v so_o renounce_v ourselves_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o we_o be_v so_o indebt_v too_o our_o neighbour_n as_o we_o must_v endeavour_n too_o do_v our_o duty_n towards_o they_o and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o faith_n and_o charity_n be_v just_o call_v the_o special_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o that_o saint_n paul_n do_v just_o in_o this_o text_n say_v charity_n and_o faith_n be_v unto_o you_o frow_fw-mi god_n our_o father_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o his_o wish_n be_v not_o make_v feign_o but_o that_o in_o say_v so_o he_o do_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o we_o must_v have_v it_o at_o god_n hand_n wherefore_o let_v we_o lay_v down_o all_o foolish_a overween_a and_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o all_o the_o spiritual_a benefit_n which_o we_o have_v be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o show_v and_o declare_v his_o liberality_n effectual_o towards_o we_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o the_o perfection_n of_o christian_n consist_v in_o faith_n and_o charity_n wherefore_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o whatsoever_o belong_v to_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n or_o be_v worthy_a too_o be_v esteem_v and_o commend_v we_o have_v none_o of_o it_o of_o our_o own_o grow_v but_o it_o come_v too_o we_o from_o above_o 17._o according_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o confess_v of_o our_o faith_n that_o neither_o flesh_n nor_o blood_n do_v show_v we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n 25._o but_o the_o father_n reveal_v it_o too_o we_o and_o likewise_o also_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v 21._o father_n i_o thank_v thou_o that_o thou_o haste_v hide_v these_o thing_n from_o the_o wise_n and_o revel_v they_o too_o the_o little_a one_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o be_v little_a one_o that_o we_o may_v be_v god_n scholar_n and_o too_o be_v fool_n in_o ourselves_o that_o we_o may_v be_v fill_v with_o his_o wisdom_n and_o yield_v he_o honour_n according_a too_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o gift_n which_o we_o shall_v have_v receive_v of_o he_o and_o not_o be_v so_o wicked_a as_o too_o challenge_v the_o praise_n unto_o we_o which_o he_o do_v just_o and_o right_o reserve_v too_o himself_o howbeit_o saint_n paul_n match_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o god_n the_o father_n too_o do_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o can_v obtain_v nothing_o but_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o he_o which_o have_v reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o we_o be_v so_o corrupt_v in_o our_o nature_n as_o we_o be_v void_a of_o all_o goodness_n and_o full_o fraught_v with_o all_o vice_n and_o too_o be_v short_a that_o we_o be_v altogether_o abominable_a but_o for_o that_o we_o be_v utter_o estrange_v from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n 9_o who_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o goodness_n and_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n be_v he_o endue_v with_o all_o fullness_n of_o grace_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o father_n have_v not_o give_v he_o the_o spirit_n in_o some_o certain_a portion_n 〈…〉_o but_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o all_o of_o we_o may_v so_o draw_v out_o of_o he_o as_o we_o can_v not_o want_v any_o thing_n for_o he_o be_v the_o fountain_n that_o can_v never_o be_v draw_v dry_a then_o can_v we_o not_o have_v one_o drop_n of_o spiritual_a gift_n but_o by_o flow_v down_o upon_o we_o through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o only_a cundiâ—pype_n of_o they_o and_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n not_o only_o have_v the_o office_n of_o give_v we_o at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n whatsoever_o iâ—_z requisite_n and_o necessary_a for_o our_o welfare_n in_o respect_n that_o he_o be_v our_o mediator_n as_o we_o have_v see_v in_o the_o four_o chapter_n but_o also_o saint_n paul_n yield_v he_o here_o moreover_o that_o he_o give_v we_o faith_n and_o charity_n by_o his_o own_o authority_n and_o power_n for_o he_o set_v he_o in_o equal_a degree_n with_o his_o father_n now_o then_o let_v we_o
