spare_v because_o there_o be_v so_o many_o in_o it_o that_o know_v not_o their_o right_a hand_n from_o their_o left_a therefore_o you_o see_v the_o example_n of_o elias_n be_v not_o right_o allege_v and_o good_a man_n may_v through_o ignorance_n misapply_v scripture_n and_o if_o good_a man_n may_v than_o no_o doubt_n but_o evil_a man_n may_v and_o will_v too_o indeed_o not_o a_o heretic_n or_o schismatique_n that_o ever_o be_v but_o they_o will_v allege_v scripture_n for_o their_o opinion_n but_o it_o be_v scripture_n mis-applyed_n and_o pervert_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v many_o do_v to_o their_o own_o destruction_n 2_o pet._n 3._o 16._o we_o have_v many_o now_o adays_o of_o this_o rank_n who_o the_o apostle_n describe_v by_o their_o condition_n and_o by_o their_o follower_n 2_o tim._n 3._o from_o the_o first_o to_o the_o ten_o verse_n and_o among_o other_o their_o condition_n he_o say_v ver_fw-la 5._o that_o they_o have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n that_o be_v they_o can_v allege_v scripture_n to_o their_o own_o end_n though_o they_o deny_v the_o power_n of_o it_o in_o their_o life_n second_o he_o say_v they_o be_v man_n of_o corrupt_a mind_n and_o reprobate_a concern_v the_o true_a faith_n and_o he_o compare_v they_o to_o a_o couple_n of_o conjurer_n janne_n and_o jambres_n that_o withstand_v moses_n the_o true_a call_v servant_n of_o the_o lord_n three_o he_o say_v further_a they_o be_v housecreeper_n they_o love_v to_o work_v in_o secret_a and_o then_o their_o follower_n with_o who_o they_o most_o prevail_v be_v silly_a woman_n that_o be_v not_o able_a to_o withstand_v they_o that_o through_o their_o silliness_n do_v admire_v they_o these_o they_o take_v captive_a and_o so_o they_o do_v some_o man_n too_o that_o be_v as_o silly_a and_o as_o weak_a as_o those_o woman_n lade_v with_o sin_n and_o divers_a lust_n and_o oh_o how_o fast_o such_o corrupt_a hearer_n do_v drink_v in_o corrupt_a doctrine_n indeed_o corrupt_a heart_n will_v always_o swallow_v down_o corruption_n and_o error_n fast_o than_o truth_n how_o many_o year_n have_v many_o of_o god_n faithful_a minister_n be_v painful_o preach_v truth_n in_o public_a as_o christ_n do_v to_o some_o people_n and_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o same_o but_o now_o of_o late_o we_o have_v have_v a_o brood_n of_o sectary_n and_o they_o have_v whisper_v up_o and_o down_o in_o corner_n man_n that_o have_v come_v in_o their_o own_o name_n and_o what_o abundance_n of_o follower_n have_v they_o get_v upon_o the_o sudden_a it_o be_v a_o true_a say_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o such_o kind_n of_o follower_n i_o be_o come_v in_o my_o father_n name_n and_o you_o receive_v i_o not_o if_o another_o shall_v come_v in_o his_o own_o name_n him_z you_o will_v receive_v joh._n 5._o 43._o and_o indeed_o you_o may_v always_o know_v a_o error_n by_o people_n readiness_n to_o receive_v it_o like_o will_n to_o like_v a_o corrupt_a doctrine_n will_v quick_o take_v a_o corrupt_a heart_n and_o you_o may_v discover_v evil_a man_n and_o false_a teacher_n by_o this_o they_o that_o can_v or_o do_v not_o apply_v scripture_n to_o themselves_o for_o the_o humiliation_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n and_o for_o the_o sanctification_n of_o their_o own_o tongue_n and_o life_n as_o many_o of_o these_o do_v not_o can_v right_o apply_v they_o for_o other_o instruction_n at_o least_o they_o may_v be_v suspect_v in_o their_o allegation_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n good_a man_n may_v be_v mistake_v in_o allege_v scripture_n therefore_o much_o rather_o may_v evil_a but_o i_o will_v hold_v you_o no_o long_o in_o the_o context_n i_o come_v to_o the_o carriage_n and_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o text_n itself_o wherein_o we_o have_v two_o thing_n 1._o our_o saviour_n dislike_n of_o their_o motion_n 2._o his_o confutation_n of_o it_o his_o dislike_n in_o the_o first_o word_n he_o turn_v and_o rebuke_v they_o his_o confutation_n in_o the_o rest_n and_o first_o of_o the_o first_o he_o turn_v and_o rebuke_v they_o doubtless_o the_o apostle_n expect_v another_o kind_n of_o 1_o turn_n than_o they_o here_o meet_v withal_o they_o look_v he_o shall_v have_v turn_v and_o commend_v they_o for_o their_o zeal_n and_o say_v well_o i_o see_v yet_o some_o body_n love_v i_o though_o other_o care_v not_o for_o i_o yet_o you_o do_v i_o see_v it_o grieve_v you_o that_o this_o disgrace_n be_v offer_v i_o you_o be_v worthy_a for_o this_o your_o tenderness_n towards_o i_o to_o sit_v the_o one_o on_o my_o right_a hand_n and_o the_o other_o on_o my_o left_a in_o my_o kingdom_n sure_o i_o say_v the_o disciple_n do_v expect_v some_o such_o like_a word_n as_o these_o with_o the_o confirmation_n of_o their_o motion_n but_o say_v the_o text_n he_o turn_v and_o rebuke_v they_o they_o be_v zealous_a indeed_o but_o they_o be_v rash_a withal_o and_o therefore_o he_o turn_v and_o rebuke_v they_o from_o whence_o we_o learn_v that_o rash_a zeal_n deserve_v no_o commendation_n but_o rather_o to_o be_v observe_v rebuke_v when_o man_n out_o of_o their_o private_a spirit_n will_v go_v about_o to_o revenge_v god_n quarrel_n upon_o sinner_n they_o shall_v have_v no_o thank_v at_o his_o hand_n for_o their_o labour_n here_o be_v sin_n against_o god_n commit_v and_o as_o great_a a_o disrespect_n offer_v to_o christ_n as_o almost_o can_v be_v yet_o we_o see_v he_o do_v not_o approve_v of_o their_o desire_n to_o revenge_v it_o man_n of_o blood_n that_o have_v cruelty_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o mouth_n and_o hand_n too_o if_o they_o have_v advantage_n against_o their_o own_o enemy_n that_o have_v use_v they_o ill_o or_o against_o christ_n enemy_n that_o have_v use_v he_o ill_o be_v to_o be_v rebuke_v we_o minister_n may_v nay_o we_o must_v rebuke_v such_o spirit_n and_o such_o motion_n and_o a_o great_a many_o such_o spirit_n have_v we_o now_o adays_o who_o if_o we_o shall_v rebuke_v as_o christ_n here_o do_v his_o disciple_n they_o will_v cry_v out_o upon_o we_o for_o no_o friend_n of_o christ_n or_o of_o his_o cause_n no_o but_o friend_n of_o publican_n and_o sinner_n rather_o as_o the_o pharisee_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v when_o he_o rebuke_v they_o the_o pharisee_n indeed_o will_v have_v have_v christ_n rebuke_v none_o but_o those_o that_o themselves_o call_v and_o count_v publican_n and_o sinner_n and_o never_o to_o have_v meddle_v with_o they_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o hypocritical_a and_o vile_a for_o if_o he_o do_v at_o any_o time_n they_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o defame_v he_o and_o exclaim_v upon_o he_o and_o miscall_v he_o so_o now_o we_o have_v many_o that_o will_v have_v we_o minister_n preach_v only_o against_o the_o sin_n of_o drunkard_n and_o profane_a person_n and_o superstitious_a papist_n but_o by_o no_o mean_n they_o will_v not_o have_v we_o touch_v the_o sin_n of_o professor_n be_v they_o never_o so_o unblamable_a for_o they_o can_v they_o will_v not_o bear_v it_o at_o our_o hand_n our_o good_a name_n at_o least_o shall_v sure_o smart_v for_o it_o if_o we_o do_v the_o least_o glance_n in_o a_o sermon_n against_o their_o hypocrisy_n or_o headlong_a zeal_n be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n with_o many_o of_o they_o to_o make_v they_o whisper_v we_o about_o the_o country_n to_o be_v man_n of_o most_o bitter_a spirit_n against_o all_o goodness_n and_o against_o god_n people_n indeed_o few_o man_n do_v we_o meet_v withal_o that_o will_v take_v rebuke_n as_o the_o disciple_n here_o do_v special_o when_o they_o be_v rebuke_v for_o their_o rash_a zeal_n in_o the_o cause_n of_o god_n or_o christ_n for_o which_o they_o expect_v commendation_n rather_o and_o perhaps_o it_o be_v that_o only_a which_o many_o of_o they_o aim_n at_o but_o it_o show_v that_o such_o be_v professor_n rather_o of_o the_o pharisee_n stamp_n then_o of_o the_o disciple_n however_o our_o saviour_n example_n and_o action_n do_v here_o 〈◊〉_d we_o that_o rash_a 〈◊〉_d deserve_v no_o commendation_n but_o rebuke_v rather_o observe_v again_o that_o christ_n do_v not_o bid_v his_o disciple_n consider_v whether_o the_o good_a that_o may_v come_v by_o burn_v the_o town_n will_v outweigh_v the_o loss_n thereof_o as_o the_o powder_n traitor_n when_o the_o case_n be_v propound_v among_o they_o whether_o the_o popish_a lord_n and_o knight_n in_o the_o parliament_n house_n shall_v be_v blow_v up_o among_o the_o rest_n they_o consult_v whether_o the_o good_a that_o may_v come_v to_o the_o catholic_a cause_n by_o that_o deadly_a blow_n will_v not_o outweigh_v the_o loss_n of_o they_o and_o find_v in_o their_o hellish_a thought_n that_o it_o will_v they_o conclude_v to_o blow_v up_o they_o too_o no_o our_o saviour_n christ_n do_v not_o go_v that_o way_n to_o work_v here_o with_o his_o disciple_n
