Multitude
a
moving
fight
to
Preach,
to,
to
many
:
as
heretofore
we
know
it
was
enough
.fora
faithful
Minuter to be.fìlenced,
fuch
was
their envy,
and
fo
contrary
to the Spirit
ofjefus
Chrif}
.
But
.I.
cannot.
tell
how
to build
any
point
of
Do.&`.frine
upon
this,
becaufe
I
think that
at
this .ime
hrut
ciid
go;
up into the Mountaine,
and
with-
drew
hitni-elfe
from
the molt of
the people,:
for
to
L
rind
the
Text

And
fee
-'ng
the
multitude
he went up into
a
mountain,
and
when
he
was
fet
his
Difciples came unto
him
:
and
it
may
be
forne
of the
ref},
but not
the
Generality of
thena,and
fo
in the
6
of
Luke,
there
having
the
fame
Sermon
recorded,
The Text
faith;
That
he
lift
up his
eyes upon
his
Di
fci
ples,
and
faid,
bid
ed
are
the
poore,
&c.
So
that
it's
probable
that rather then
he,'
Would
fpend
his
time
at
this prefen: among-the
multitude, he
retires
himfelfe
to
fpeake
to,
his-
Difci,les, Why?
for
his
chiefe'work
was
about
his Difciples, about the
fending_out
the.
i
a,
and making
them
to
be Apollles,
and
therefore
though
the,
preaching
to
all
the
multitude
be
a
very
good thing,
and
that
the
heart óf
Chril}
was
much in
u-.on all occafions,
yet
now
Chiai. would mind
his
work
that
he
was
about,
tafpeake
to
his
Apof}les
that
he
-was
to
fend abroad.
From
whence we may
note,
That
men
'mull
tend their
pre-
fent work, and
not be
upon thinking
that they
may
do more
good
fo
me,
other
way, and
fo
leave
the prefent
work
that
God
calls
them
to
:
Let
us
Tooke
to the
worke
that
we are about
for the prefent, and
not
be taken
of to thin''e, I
but
another
worke
may
be more ufeful,
but
is
this
my work
for
the pre_
fent,
then
let
me goc upon rt;
and'commit
my -worke
to
the
Welling
ofGod.
And then 2'

Hence
we
may
