When men are vppon the Sea ( in danger ) they wil cast al away to keep their life , Acts , 27 , 38 Apoc , 13 , 1 Iames 1 , 8 Luke 11 , 8 & we should leaue al things willingly for the life to come . What is the world , but as an inconstant sea ? what are the troubles heere , but as tempests there ? what is the Church afflicted , but as a ship tossed ? & what are christian men , but carefull marriners striuing against storm & stream , to ariue safe in the hauen of Heauen ? Actes 27 , 9 Acts 14 , 22 Sailing was very dangerous in Pauls long voyage by Sea , but yet he wafted on , And we must trauel through many troubles to the kingdome of Christ . Actes , 14 , 21 As Paules fellowe sailers wished for the day , so al christians desire the true light . Psal , 42 , 2 Therefore saieth Dauid , When shal I come and appeare beefore God : as though he thought euery minute to bee a moneth vntill the iudgement day were come . This maketh the spouse so inquisitiue after him , Cant , 3 , 3 that she is questioning with as many as meet her , Saw ye him whom my soule loueth ? The church woulde not see Christ , Luke 19 , 3 Heb , 12 , 1 as Philip & Andrewe saw him , nor as Zacheus saw him , nor as the cloud of witnesses saw him but so in his kingdome , Math , 17 , 2 as Moses and Elias , sawe him in his glorie vppon Mount Thabor . Take heed , watch & pray , for ye know not when the time shall be , Math , 13 , 33 ( saith our Sauiour Christ to the dysciples , because we know not the daie of appearance ) therefore wee are often warned to watch , that we may be ready : like the mariner that waiteth on the winde and tide , like the smith that smiteth whiles the yron is hot : and as birdes breed while summer lasteth . The speech of Abraham to the rich man in hel , concerneth vs now while we are out of hel Sonne remember that thou in thy life time haddest pleasure . Luke 16 , 25 Psal , 95 , 8 The Psalmist saith , we must heare God while it is to day ( vz ) while we may , and in another Psalme , I will pay my vowes now saith the prophet teaching men to take their present opportunitie , Psal , 116 , 12 to giue God his dutie other waies they may soothe vppe themselues , Psal. 116.14 with Beholde O Lorde how that I am thy seruaunt , but cannot saye , and the sonne of thy handmaide , while they are not at hande to doe his beheastes .

Christ saide watch , Math , 25 , 13 for ye know not when the houre wil come , because we know not at what houre Christ will come : therfore it is reason to be ready euery houre , and the last houre is vnknowne to vs , that wee might account euery houre to be the last hower : yet as before the Wall falleth downe , some stones drop out of it , and cliftes appeare : as before the flame mounteth , some smoake is seene . And as before the mightye thunderbolt , a flashe of lightning flieth out , so wee haue very manie tokens that we might take heede of the iudgement daye to make vs more carefull how wee shall come before the iudgement seate of our Sauiour Christ , seeing his comming is as a theefe in the night ( That is ) when as al are secure and asleepe in their sins , Apo , 16 , 15 , for danger commeth most when it is least looked for . Irrecouerable as a stronger net them that which christ made a hole in , when al the birds brake out after him singing , Psal , 124 , 6 Luke , 21 , 35 The snare is broken and we are deliuered . As a snare shall it come on al them that dwell on the earth . As Christ asked the Iewes for which of his good works they sought his death : so it would bee knowne , which of Gods blessinges haue banished vs from him ▪ for as the fuller the buckette is with water , the more hardlie it is haled vp out of the well , so the more men abound in God his blessinges , the farther they are from him . Iohn 6 , 44 Therfore said Christ , No man commeth vnto me , except my father draweth him . And seeing ( like mice in Gods barne ) wee are content to feed on his corne , and enioy his blessings here , but loth to see the Lorde of the haruest . Paule telleth vs , That we must all appeare . Euery mothers child of vs . And they needes must , that needes shall .

The second obseruation is , That we shall appeare before a Iudgement seate . Whereby is vnderstood that Iudiciall power that is giuen to Iesus Christ in heauen and in earth , Matth. 28.18 . but most specially that generall Iudgement , which was reuealed to S. Iohn , whereof he saith , Apoc. 20.11 . I saw a great white throne , & one that sate on it . 12. And I sawe the dead both great and small standing before God , and the bookes were opened , &c. Luke 17.1 . As it cannot be but offences must come , so it cannot bee but Iudgement will followe . Paule could not acquite the best of vs with death : but so soone as hee had sayd , It is appointed for al men once to die : Heb. 9.27 . addeth , and then commeth the iudgement . Balaam rode on till the Angel met him , where he could not turne : and so long as men haue to deale but with men , they dare say , declare , and we wil declare . They wil pleade their own case , but when the matter commeth in question , before Christ who will be their dayes man , or take vpon him to answere one thing of a thousand ? We are put in mind of a Iudgment seate , that all may iudge themselues , that they be not iudged , that is to say , condemned of the Lord . In this world Iezabel can get two that will say , 1. Reg 21.10 . that Naboth blasphemed God & Ahab . The Iewes will bring forth false witnesse that Christ sayd , Mat , 26.60.61 Destroy this materiall temple of Ierusalem , and I will build it vp againe in three daies . And because the lawe sayth , That in the mouth of two , or three witnesses , euery cause in controuersie must bee proued , therefore iniquitie hath prouided , Knights of the post , that are readie to sweare almost to any matter for a little money . But as when the Elders left Susannaes Susan . 50. cause in wrong sentence , Daniel took in hand to right it : so when the mightie haue wronged the meaner sorte , Christ will determine of the matter . Therefore Dauid made choice of his iudgement before any other : first , for that God goeth wisely to work , in waying the waight of euery mans matter , Ponder my cause , O Lord . Psalm. 5.1 . And then for speedie dispatching without respite of iudgement from terme to terme : Psalm. 119.52 For I haue remembred thine euerlasting iudgements ( O Lord ) and haue receiued comfort , vz. The time will come when Gods iudgements shall stande , not onely in stead of all plea , but also inreuocable for euer . It is a terrible matter to fall into the hands of the Lord : because that if he beginneth with a man , 1. Sam. 4. he will make an ende with him , as he did with Eli . 1. Sam. 21.13 Dauid . escaped the hands of Achish King of Gath , by faining himselfe to be mad : but bee ye sure God is not mocked . Dan. 5.27 . Nabuchadnezzar was wayed , & found too light in the ballance , and his kingdome diuided to the Medes and Persians . And how can any man sooth vp himselfe , imagining God to bee like to men , who receiuing light golde , are contented to take that in tale , which is wanting in waight ? Luk. 19.24 . He that abused one talent had it taken from him : much lesse may we prophane many blessings , & yet possesse them still . If we haue all receiued talents , then must we al giue accounts . If we all haue treasure , we must all haue care that it canker not : Matth. 6.19 . we did not receiue them to lay them vp idely : for it was sayd , Occupie till I come . Luke 19.13 . Neither helpeth it , that wee do render as much as we haue receiued : Luke 19.23 . but God will haue spirituall interest of all his spiritual blessings , because he is God , Matth. 22.21 . as Caesar had tribute because he was King . The remembrance of the iudgement seate of Christ should make men as loth to consent to sin , as Ioseph was to hearken to Putifers wife : for as he sayd , How can I doe this great wickednes and sinne against God ? So should all men scan the matter , and say , If I sin , I sinne against God : Gen. 39.9 . if I sinne against GOD , I must answere it before his iudgement seate another day . Ioseph was prouident , and yet ouerseene in sinning : for though hee would not consent to Madam Putifer , yet would hee sweare by the life of his Lorde Pharao . Gen. 42.16 . See how sinne pleadeth custome with Ioseph , as Laban did with Iacob , when he sayd , That it was not the manner to marrie the yonger before the elder . Gen. 20.25 . Because it was vsuall in Pharaoes Court to sweare by the life of Pharao , vpon euery light occasion , therefore Ioseph neuer suspecteth it to bee a sinne : so that where sinne is not suspected , it is quite neglected : and where it is not had in lothing , there in time it seemeth nothing .

Gen. 4 7. Eze. 18.2 . Adams Apple was like Ezekiels sower grape , whereof the fathers tasting , the childrens teeth are set on edge : for the sonnes are many times tainted with their fathers sinnes , as Gehazies posteritie were with his leprosie . 2. Reg. 5.27 . Therefore as all are guiltie in respect of nature , so all are summoned to the seate of iudgement . The diuels did acknowledge against themselues a time of torment , Matth. 8.29 . & the guest at the wedding was speechles on a sodaine : Matth. 22.12 . so shall the wicked either in speech condemne themselues , like him that was iudged of his own mouth : Luk. 19.22 . or by mute silence argue their owne guiltines , Iob. 9.2 . that GOD may not stand to pleade with them that cannot answere to one matter of a thousand . The guests that were called to the supper of that King which made a marriage for his sonne , requited his kindnes , with I pray ye hold me excused , for I haue bought oxen , and I goe to trie them . The second , with I haue bought a farme , and I must go and see it . And the third , with I haue married a wife , and I cannot come . If they were so loth to come when hee called them of his mercie , how vnwilling will they be ( thinke you ) to appeare when hee calleth them of his iustice , when they cannot beare him in hande , that men are so simple to buy oxen before they trye oxen , or to lay out money for the pigge in the poke , that the money shall be told before the farme be bought and sold , that they will first pay for it , & then suruey it ? no , but he sayd trueth that confessed , and sayd , I haue married a wife , and I cannot come : for they that are married to the world , as a man to his wife , they send God answer that they cannot leaue the world their wife , till their dying day .

And then neither I pray thee excuse mee may serue the turne , nor I cannot come , bee taken for an aunswere : but corpus cum causa must be returned to the iudgement seate of Christ . They do wel then who walk worthie of their calling , by walking according to the same : like the Apostles who sayd , Acts. 6 4. Wee will giue our selues to prayer , & to the ministration of the word continually . Godlinesse must be as carefully kept , as it is painfully gotten , 1. Timo. 6 20. least like ebbing waters ( at full tide ) wee hasten to our fall . Paul telleth vs of a Iudgement , because thereby a difference shall bee made betwixt the better and the worse sorte of people : for as there was no time when , nor companie whom the diuell chose before the sonnes of God , Iob. 1. when they were assembled before the Lorde : so it is with the wicked , who resemble the brasen faced strumpets , who couet the companie of honest women , placing their grace in such , because themselues are graceles . For as God blessed Laban for the loue he had to Iacob , Gen. 30 27. so they knowe that the worse fareth well for the betters sake . Mark . 13.26 . Matth. 13.48 . This made the tares creepe vp anon after the good corne . The frie to slip into the net with the good fish , & the vngodly to sit in the sunne-shine with godly , that they might haue a being for a time : for when iudgement commeth , they shall appeare but as Satan amongst the sonnes of God ( that is ) in the company , Iob. 2.1 . but not of the company of Gods elect : and as the theefe at the barre , not for his good that he hath done , but for the euill hee hath committed : Matth. 17.3 . but the rest like Moses and Elias familiar with Christ . The reason of this is , that Christ being the true light , might shew himselfe to be so indeed , by leauing nothing that is a deed of darknes , vndetected to the children of light , that he may be iustified in his sayings , and cleere when he is iudged . The wicked must bee detected of what they haue been , and the vngodly must be noted for what they are , and all this must be brought to light by the light : for as mens sins haue been smothered in the world , so haue they bin buried in the graue . You see then that the iustice of Christ and the vnrighteousnes of man doth bring a iudgement . Luk. 23.19 . As Barrabas his insurrection , and the lawes equitie caused his imprisonment .

The vse of this is as fit for our age , as Iethroes counsell was for his son in lawe Moses , in aduising him not only to make Iudges in Israel , but also prescribed such principall qualities , as should be predominant in their calling : As a good courage , Exod. 18 21. the feare of GOD , true dealing , and cleerenes from the corruption of bribe taking : so that if a man in the spirit of Dauid should demand of them this question : Are your mindes set vpon righteousnes , O yee congregation , Psalm. 58 1. and doe yee iudge the thing that is right , O yee sonnes of men ? They durst appeale to God like Dauid , that said , Psalm. 26.1 . Be thou my Iudge , O Lorde , whether I haue walked innocently or not . For thus should men learne to iudge as they would be iudged .

Iustice hath both her handes full continually , in signe whereof , her right hand gripeth a sword , and her left hand lifteth vp a paire of ballance . Teaching Magistrates to way euery matter in the ballance of a good conscience , that they may know which cause is the lighter . So Dauid intreateth God , Psalm. 5.1 . Ponder my cause , O Lord . And then deuide to each man his owne as Salomons sword ceased the strife betwixt the women that stroue for the liuing child . 2. King 3.25 . But if the sword bee swayed before the waytes haue wayed , then may you see Annanias who should iudge according to law , commanding to strike Paul against law . Ioh. 18.10 . Then may you see Peter step in with the sword , and strike off Malcus eare . Then doe you see the Magistrate deale more hastely than wisely . Then receiueth the very law it selfe a maime at the hande of the Magistrate . Dauid commending the flourishing state of Ierusalem , said : There is the seate of iudgement , euen the seate of the house of Dauid . This seate Dauid calleth the seate for iustice , to shew the right vse of the iudgement seate , & the house of Dauid , noting what men should sit there : euen iust men like the seede of Dauid : Luk. 23.22.24 or els as Pilate iudged Christ faultles , Acts 24.28 . and yet put him to death . And as Felix to please the Iewes , left Paul in prison : so they will set their consciences on the tainterhookes , Susan . 52. and be as olde in euill , as in age , like the vniust Iudge reproued by Daniel . But the good Magistrate is like the munition that ouerpeereth the cities walles in time of warre , threatning the enemies that are without , and comforting the inhabitans which are within : or such a preseruatiue as the pitch was to Noas Arke , sticking fast vnto the sides without , and within : or like a hedge to the vine to keep it from the destroyer : Exod. 6.14 . or like the tree that Nabucadnezzar sawe refreshing such as came vnder his shadow : or like Moses , Exod. 2.13 . seeking to set them at one that striue : or like Iob , helping them that lye at the gate , Iob. 31.21 . and are not able to helpe themselues : or like Dorcas , making clothes at his owne cost for the poore , Acts 9.39 . that such may lament the losse of him when he is gone , as reioyced by him when hee was here . But if he bee not such a one as hath a godly care of those that are committed to his charge , there is such a fault in the chosers as was in the trees of the wood , who annoynted a bramble in stead of a better tree . Iudg. 9.14 . But this hath been an olde ouersight in the most assemblies , that they forget that maxime or speciall principle giuen by almightie God , Whom the Lord shall choose , him thou shalt make gouernor . None are ignorant , that the iudgement seate was Moses seate , who haue read or heard that saying of our Sauiour Christ , Matth. The Scribes and the Pharisies sit in Moses seate , &c. Moses was a man that would both say , and doe well , and therefore was called faithfull in all Gods house . But as the Scribes ( that would say what they must , but do what they list ) succeeded Moses in the seate of Magistracie : Matth. 24.15 . so wicked men like that abomination of desolation , do sit where they ought not : and this is that vnseemly sight that Salomon saw some times , Eccle. 10.7 . When seruants were set on horsebacke , and Magistrates made to goe on foote . When Christ was gloriously vpon Mount Thabor , it is witnessed that his very rayment was as white as the light , Matth. 17.2 . which sheweth that there is an intent in causing your Magistrates to differ from other men in the excellencie of his very garment : for as hee offendeth in life by his euill example , so he spotteth his garment , that is scarlet or purple : and then Esay telleth him , Esay . 1.18 . Sir your sinnes are as red as scarlet . And Ezra his messengers spake plainly : The hande of the Ruler is chiefe in this trespasse . Ezra . 9.2 . These men are more vnmeet to rule then Zedechias , 2. King . 25.7 . that had his eyes put out , for they will not see : and Adony Bezecke , 1. Iud. 6. that had his fingers cut off , for they may , but will not gird them with their sword vpon the thigh . Psal. 45.4 . And therefore Salomon complaineth grieuously : Eccle. 3.16 . I haue seene wickednes in the place of iudgement , and iniquitie in the place of equitie .

BY euery one is ment , that none can escape , Matth 22 11. no more than that guest at the Wedding could bee vnspied when the house was full , so that no man may sooth vp himselfe to passe : for as the King came in to see the guests , so he came to iudge them to . And as Peter sayd , Acts 10.35 . All that worke righteousnes are accepted with God : so all that worke vnrighteousnesse , are reiected from God : and because euery one shall bee iudged , therefore Paul maketh priuate application of his exhortation , and saith , 1. Cor. 11.28 . Let a man examine himselfe . Like as in the riddle that Christ propounded , Matth. 29.21 . I tell you , that one of you shall betray me : euery man fell into examination of himselfe , Master is it I ? 22. Eleuen of them could not expound it , and the twelfth would not . So they that will not reprooue themselues now , must looke to be reproued another day to their shame . Would not a man bee ashamed to haue his faults written in his forehead ? Saint Iohn saw a book open , and that was the consciences of all men , Apoc. 20.22 . wherein our selues shall as plaine remember our faults , as if they were layd down in writing before vs . Then that prophesie is fulfilled , Psal 50.24 . I will reproue thee , and set before thee the things which thou hast done . These words ( euery one ) doe include the shortnes of the iudgement day : for as the little clowde that Elias his seruaunt sawe vpon Mount Carmell ( though it were but of the bignes of a hande ) contained much raine in it : 1. King . 18.44 . as the little penny contained the Princes picture . Matth. 22.19 . And as Dauids little stone that carried great Goliaths present death in it . 1. Sam. 17.50 . And as the lightning comming from the East , Matth. 24.27 . is immediatly in the West , so shall a short time , and a few words comprehend a great and swift iudgment . Rom. 9.28 . Therefore sayd Paul , A short word shall the Lord make vpon earth : For why should GOD dispute with men , Iob. 9.2 . that cannot answere one thing of a thousand ? sayth Iob.

May receiue the things that are done in his bodie . Seeing our bodie must receiue the things that it hath done , that is , Matth. 22.13 . This bodie that we now carrie . That was but a seducing doctrine of the Sadduces , who affirmed that there is no resurrection of the dead : for as Paul sayth , 2. Cor. 15.19 . If our hope endeth with our life , wee were most miserable of all men . This was the opinion of such , as grounding vpon reason , were outreached by faith : for where reason endeth , there faith beginneth . Therefore ( sayth Paul ) By faith wee vnderstand that the world was made by the worde of God , and that the things which are , Heb. 11.3 . were not made of things which did appeare .

Now if we turne faith into reason , or rather if wee doe reason in faith , we shall finde the trueth of this doctrine confirmed by reason and common sence : for if wee beleeue that God created man of nothing ( which the Scripture calleth creation ) then must we much more beleeue that he can raise man vp againe when hee is some thing that created him of nothing . Gen. 1.1 . But if any Saduce will say that he denieth not a resurrection of Gods people , in respect of any want of Gods power , but thinking it needeles , because the badde goe imediatlie in soule to hell , and good soules to God that gaue them . I answer , that it is as requisit that there be a resurrection as that there should bee a God , otherwise the bodie and soule should neuer meete and bee ioyned to the head Christ Iesus : for as Paul saide , Beholde I shew you a mysterie , 1. Cor. 15.51 . so I say , and he ment that our coniunction with our head Christ must bee done mistically by the working of the Godhead , or else we shall still bee like the kerchief that was by it selfe , Ioh. 20.7 . ( that is ) as it was wrapped vp in a place by it selfe , seuered from the rest of the linnen clothes that were about his body : so we the members should bee parted from Christ our head in heauen , and should remayne on earth by our selues . And Christ himselfe saith , that if he should not raise vp all at the last day , then he should not doe the worke of a Sauiour . Ioh. 6.39 . This is the Fathers will that hath sent mee , that of all which he hath giuen me , I should loose nothing , but should raise it vp at the last daye : for it is all one as if hee had said , if there were no resurrection , then were I no Sauiour , for if I raise them not , then I saue them not . Therfore first he threatneth death , 1. Cor. 15.55 . & then conquireth death : Paul concludeth this as a necessarie poynt in diuinitie to say : Christ is risen : ergo , wee shall rise too , for you see he thinketh no argument better , then to say , If it be preached that Christ is risen , 1. Cor. 15.12 . how say some among you , that there is no resurrection of the dead . It is the best argument that euer was made , to proue a resurrection , not only in particular , that for so much as Christ is risen , it must bee confessed that there is a resurrection , if no more shoulde rise but hee : but seeing Christ is risen as the head , how shall the members sticke by him , no , but the members must follow the head , for as when a man taketh a fall the head riseth first , and then all the bodie commeth after it . Mark . 16.6 . So Christ hauing risen from the graue where he lay , is lifted vp into heauen , as our spiritual head , and telleth vs in his worde , that hee will not send any other , sauing the comforter to cherrish vs , but to fetch vs , he will come himselfe , that where hee is , there may wee bee also . Iohn 14.3 . The Iewes that buried Christ , laid a heauie stone vppon the graue , Matth. 27.66 . to haue kept him there , if it had been possible . And now he is risen : all the christians they lay hold vpon him by faith . And as Iacob said to the Angell : Gen. 32.26 . I will not part from thee till thou hast blessed me . So the Church saith , 1. Cant. 3. draw mee vnto thee , 2. King . 2.6 . for wee will run after thee : they meane as Elisha saide to Elias , I will not leaue thee , that is , Matth. 11.12 . I will goe to heauen , and therefore let mee goe , and then the kingdome of God suffereth violence among them . Herein lyeth the whole burthen of a christian : 1. Thess. 4.14 . if yee beleeue that Iesus dyed , & is risen againe , euen so them that sleepe with Iesus , shall GOD bring with him . 1. Cor. 15.20 . All must bee assured of this , Christ is risen from the dead , and is become the fruite of them that sleep , that is , as by the offering of the fruites , all the rest had a blessing , so in christ his resurrection ours is confirmed . This made Paul so carefullie to aduertise Timothie of this poynte of doctrine , remember that Iesus Christ made of the seede of Dauid was raised againe the third daye , 2. Tim. 2.8 . according to my Gospell , remember it , that is , forget it not while thou liuest , but remember it euen when thou diest , and then as he is of that power , that in very death he raysed the dead , and sent them out of their hollow sepulchers into the holy citie to bee seene of such as were aliue . Matth. 27.52 . And as while hee liued , hee called things that were not , Rom. 4.17 . as though they were , Ioh. 11.34 . as hee did Lazarus carkesse by the name of Lazarus , and the bodie of the widdowes sonne , Luk 7.14 . by name of young man . So the houre shall come , Luk. 7.14 . Ioh. 5.28 . that the dead shall heare the voyce of the sonne of man , and then wee shall all stand vp like the bones that Ezechiel sawe . Ezec. 37.10 . According to that he hath done , whether it be good or euill . 2. King . 20.1 . Therefore abe at vnusquisque in domum suam : Let euerie one goe into his owne house , vz. looke into himselfe , that he may reforme what is amisse , as Esay sayd to Ezechia , Set thine house in an order . If ye doe possesse your soules in patience , haue care to keepe them still . Luk. 21 , 19. As Rahab had a red thread tyed in her windowe : so giue the Lorde a signe to remember you when the destroyer commeth , Iosua . 2.18 . that GOD may haue mercie on you , as you haue shewed mercie to other . Looke how you will bee rewarded , so doe your worke : for you waite for the day of the Lord , Iob. 14.6 . as the hireling for the euening , to receiue his reward . He that knoweth of what spirit ye are better then your selues , 〈◊〉 . 14.6 . must needes know you well . Luk. 9 55. He that hath made the eye seeth you when ye see not him . He that made the heart , fore knoweth your conceit ; be where ye will , hee findeth you when you thinke least vpon him , 1. Sam. 24.5 . as Dauid founde Saul a sleepe in a caue . Say what you will , he knoweth what you speake . As Elisha could tell what the King of Asseria spake in his priuie chamber . 2. King . 6.12 . As no vertue shall bee vnrewarded with God , Iob. 14.17 . so no sinne shall be vnpunished with him . For he sealeth vp your sinnes in a bagge , Psalm. 56.8 . as duely as he putteth your teares in his bottle : that is , as hee regardeth the sorrowe of them that repent like Ezekia , so hee retaineth the sinne of such as sorowe truely , Matth. 13.30 . like as Pharao did not . That the scripture may be true : the cockle must continue among the corne vntill haruest , and no longer . Ecclesiastes . Therefore sayd Salomon , There is a time for all things , &c. As the vngodly haue had a time to bee like the rich man on earth , Luk. 16.25 . so they shall haue a time to bee like the rich man in hell . As they haue been like the bush that was burning , Exod. 3.3 . so in time they shall be like the Sunne shining . Matth. 13.43 . The Church is like Iohn Baptist , Iohn . 5.35 . and Iohn Baptist was like a candle burning , Iohn . 3.20 . and shining : consuming himselfe to giue light to other . Exodus 14.20 But for so much as there are some that loue not the light , the Iudge must deale with them according to their darknes , making a separation betwixt them , as the pillar of a clowde did betwixt the Israelites and Egyptians in the wildernesse .
