without_o the_o lust_n thereof_o and_o likewise_o in_o all_o other_o precept_n for_o the_o law_n require_v not_o only_o to_o do_v work_v but_o that_o the_o heart_n also_o be_v pure_a and_o agreeable_a in_o all_o point_n to_o god_n word_n and_o law_n but_o thou_o will_v say_v where_o may_v such_o a_o heart_n be_v find_v uere_o neither_o i_o neither_o thou_o have_v it_o in_o store_n for_o we_o see_v how_o soon_o we_o fall_v into_o wroth_a and_o how_o soon_o also_o sensuality_n rise_v in_o our_o heart_n yea_o otherwise_o then_o we_o think_v or_o will_v yea_o and_o where_o we_o purpose_v the_o contrary_a and_o hate_v our_o self_n therefore_o what_o must_v be_v do_v then_o we_o have_v not_o such_o perfect_a rightuousnes_n and_o a_o clean_a heart_n and_o yet_o we_o hear_v the_o sentence_n require_v that_o the_o phariseis_n rightuousnes_n have_v no_o place_n in_o heaven_n true_o this_o must_v we_o do_v we_o must_v not_o follow_v the_o scribe_n and_o phariseis_n to_o think_v ourselves_o rightuous_a for_o our_o work_v but_o for_o all_o our_o rightuousnes_n what_o soever_o we_o do_v we_o must_v show_v such_o submission_n and_o humbleness_n before_o god_n that_o we_o may_v say_v o_o

and_o grace_n which_o thou_o haste_v promise_v and_o perform_v to_o we_o in_o christ._n this_o doctrine_n tend_v to_o this_o end_n special_o that_o spiritual_a pride_n may_v thereby_o be_v restrain_v and_o we_o by_o that_o mean_n come_v unto_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o filthy_a heart_n and_o most_o corrupt_a nature_n and_o so_o at_o the_o last_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o hope_n of_o god_n grace_n

although_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v good_a and_o godly_a but_o of_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o grace_n of_o god._n for_o although_o we_o prevail_v some_o what_o by_o that_o we_o

be_v unpure_a and_o full_a of_o sensuality_n and_o wickedness_n iiii_o but_o he_o that_o obtain_v remission_n of_o his_o sin_n be_v rightuous_a not_o by_o his_o own_o power_n but_o by_o grace_n forasmuch_o as_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v he_o for_o his_o father_n sake_n in_o christ._n wherefore_o peter_n in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o our_o heart_n be_v purify_v by_o

shall_v never_o come_v to_o pass_v before_o this_o body_n of_o sin_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o ground_n and_o a_o passage_n make_v unto_o everlasting_a life_n then_o shall_v the_o heart_n be_v clean_o in_o deed_n and_o pure_a of_o his_o own_o nature_n but_o so_o long_o as_o this_o life_n endure_v consist_v all_o the_o pureness_n be_v in_o faith_n and_o in_o the_o word_n that_o god_n for_o christ_n

afterward_o by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o begin_v to_o lead_v a_o pure_a holy_a and_o godly_a life_n and_o show_v god_n due_a obedience_n but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o this_o be_v a_o unperfect_a obedience_n therefore_o the_o whole_a rightuousnes_n before_o god_n consist_v only_o in_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o these_o word_n v._n where_o christ_n say_v except_o your_o rightuousnesse_n exceed_v the_o rightuousnes_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o of_o the_o phariseis_n you_o can_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n these_o word_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o though_o all_o that_o the_o phariseis_n do_v be_v naught_o by_o nature_n for_o where_o as_o the_o pharisie_n in_o the_o gospel_n of_o luke_n

these_o thing_n be_v not_o evil_a and_o we_o will_v wish_v that_o all_o man_n be_v such_o even_o unto_o their_o life_n end_n then_o shall_v the_o magistrate_n judge_n and_o parent_n with_o such_o

phariseis_n neither_o think_v he_o that_o he_o have_v need_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o obtainment_n of_o true_a and_o perfect_a rightuousnes_n christ_n resist_v this_o lewd_a persuasion_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o trust_v in_o such_o rightuousnes_n before_o god_n but_o make_v inquisition_n for_o better_a if_o we_o determine_v to_o have_v any_o hope_n of_o the_o heavenly_a inheritance_n and_o he_o put_v forth_o unto_o we_o the_o sixth_o commandment_n for_o a_o example_n that_o by_o that_o we_o may_v learn_v what_o be_v the_o rightuousnes_n of_o the_o

such_o through_o thy_o fault_n may_v perish_v and_o so_o be_v thou_o by_o this_o precept_n guilty_a of_o murder_n as_o ambrose_n say_v if_o thou_o have_v not_o feed_v thou_o haste_v slay_v and_o

we_o to_o overthrow_v this_o kingdom_n let_v we_o consider_v the_o example_n of_o the_o mounkes_n and_o bishop_n of_o rome_n which_o while_o they_o go_v about_o to_o avoid_v such_o offence_n and_o seducinge_n as_o chance_v in_o this_o common_a life_n bring_v in_o more_o grevouse_n occasion_n to_o offend_v where_o as_o they_o change_v true_a religion_n into_o ceremony_n rite_n and_o observation_n they_o utter_o abolish_v the_o kingdom_n of_o mercy_n and_o grace_n and_o this_o be_v now_o also_o the_o very_a practice_n of_o the_o devil_n for_o that_o he_o slaunder_v the_o professer_n of_o the_o gospel_n because_o there_o be_v many_o offence_n and_o evil_a example_n amongst_o they_o for_o we_o can_v not_o deny_v but_o such_o offensive_a example_n be_v in_o many_o hypocrite_n which_o boast_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o grace_n and_o yet_o by_o their_o licentiouse_a live_n and_o manner_n by_o their_o advoutrie_n extortion_n usury_n sensual_a lust_n and_o many_o other_o vice_n declare_v that_o they_o regard_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n true_o but_o what_o remedy_n we_o be_v forth_o with_o tempt_v to_o pluck_v up_o the_o tare_n and_o to_o seek_v such_o a_o separation_n of_o the_o evil_a from_o the_o good_a that_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n we_o corrupt_v the_o heavenly_a doctrine_n as_o touch_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o if_o we_o be_v wise_a we_o will_v not_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v withdraw_v from_o do_v our_o duty_n by_o their_o importunite_v and_o outrageous_a behavioure_n for_o it_o be_v much_o better_a to_o resist_v and_o strive_v with_o the_o wicked_a example_n of_o their_o life_n and_o manner_n by_o do_v the_o contrary_a and_o so_o to_o preserve_v this_o doctrine_n of_o mercy_n and_o grace_n then_o to_o correct_v and_o pluck_v it_o up_o violent_o and_o so_o by_o that_o and_o example_n of_o the_o mounkes_n and_o novatians_n to_o flee_v from_o scylla_n and_o to_o fall_v into_o charybdis_n that_o be_v for_o avoid_v of_o the_o less_o danger_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o great_a and_o especial_o since_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o kingdom_n be_v such_o that_o it_o can_v not_o utter_o avoid_v all_o offence_n because_o such_o must_v be_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o this_o necessary_a doctrine_n of_o grace_n wherefore_o where_o as_o the_o papist_n now_o lie_v to_o our_o charge_n the_o fruit_n of_o our_o gospel_n what_o other_o thing_n mean_v they_o thereby_o than_o that_o this_o kyngdom_n shall_v be_v without_o all_o offence_n and_o evil_a example_n but_o we_o may_v just_o lay_v this_o to_o their_o charge_n again_o that_o where_o as_o they_o go_v about_o by_o the_o mounkerye_n and_o other_o tradition_n of_o they_o to_o make_v this_o kingdom_n without_o offence_n they_o be_v fall_v into_o such_o error_n and_o blindness_n thereby_o that_o they_o have_v clean_o lose_v all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n and_o godly_a righteousness_n and_o all_o the_o work_n of_o true_a godliness_n also_o if_o therefore_o it_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o our_o choice_n which_o of_o these_o discommodity_n we_o have_v rather_o have_v grace_n whether_o of_o they_o both_o shall_v we_o rather_o take_v uery_o all_o will_v grant_v this_o that_o for_o as_o much_o as_o this_o kingdom_n can_v not_o be_v without_o offence_n yet_o that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o choose_v that_o offence_n where_o with_o nevertheless_o the_o kingdom_n may_v be_v sumwhat_o uphold_v than_o that_o whereby_o the_o kingdom_n shall_v quite_o be_v destroy_v without_o hope_n of_o recover_a &_o whereby_o the_o doctrine_n and_o true_a godliness_n shall_v utterlie_o decay_v &_o perish_v as_o it_o chance_v amongst_o the_o papist_n and_o monk_n and_o the_o doctrine_n and_o meaning_n of_o this_o parable_n of_o christ_n be_v put_v forth_o to_o the_o end_n that_o above_o all_o thing_n we_o may_v have_v good_a respect_n to_o know_v the_o manner_n of_o god_n kingdom_n and_o not_o be_v offend_v with_o such_o

that_o they_o may_v false_o boast_v of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v in_o the_o fellowship_n with_o they_o that_o use_v it_o well_o but_o christ_n show_v what_o great_a damage_n ensue_v thereby_o even_o that_o by_o this_o separation_n they_o pluck_v up_o the_o good_a corn_n also_o for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o grace_n be_v pluck_v up_o by_o man_n tradition_n which_o be_v invent_v to_o make_v this_o separation_n so_o that_o now_o the_o church_n be_v bring_v to_o such_o a_o miserable_a and_o unscapable_a case_n that_o where_o as_o before_o the_o member_n be_v in_o peril_n now_o the_o head_n be_v like_a to_o decay_v wherefore_o we_o must_v follow_v christ_n council_n which_o byd_v we_o to_o suffer_v the_o tare_n and_o not_o to_o be_v so_o precise_a in_o pluck_v they_o up_o lest_o we_o by_o our_o undiscrete_a diligence_n overthrow_v the_o governaunce_n of_o this_o kingdom_n as_o touch_v remission_n of_o sin_n now_o must_v we_o use_v this_o kingdom_n that_o many_o by_o remission_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v forgeven_v if_o there_o be_v any_o as_o there_o be_v many_o that_o have_v rather_o be_v see_v to_o be_v in_o this_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n then_o to_o be_v true_a member_n thereof_o in_o deed_n what_o can_v we_o do_v therewith_o if_o they_o will_v needs_o misuse_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o if_o we_o shall_v be_v so_o extreme_a against_o they_o that_o for_o their_o sake_n we_o will_v use_v violence_n and_o force_n in_o this_o kingdom_n what_o shall_v we_o get_v thereby_o than_o that_o as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o example_n before_o while_o we_o go_v about_o to_o separate_v the_o wicked_a for_o their_o abuse_v of_o god_n grace_n we_o utterlye_o subverte_v the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n wherefore_o let_v we_o leave_v this_o to_o be_v do_v of_o the_o angel_n end_n that_o they_o may_v sunder_v the_o evil_a from_o the_o good_a for_o after_o that_o shall_v the_o kyngdom_n of_o grace_n be_v no_o long_o among_o sinner_n every_o man_n then_o

follow_v the_o example_n of_o the_o mercy_n of_o their_o father_n but_o whereas_o god_n garnish_v we_o also_o with_o other_o person_n ruler_n when_o he_o make_v we_o father_n lord_n magistrate_n
