difference_n that_o the_o jewish_a worship_n be_v in_o type_n and_o figure_n and_o ceremony_n the_o christian_a worship_n in_o truth_n and_o substance_n and_o therefore_o if_o this_o legal_a and_o evangelical_n worship_n be_v the_o same_o it_o must_v have_v the_o some_o object_n for_o the_o object_n be_v the_o most_o essential_a part_n of_o worship_n so_o that_o if_o it_o appear_v not_o only_o from_o the_o express_a letter_n of_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n but_o from_o all_o the_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o law_n that_o god_n only_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v by_o the_o jewish_a church_n if_o christ_n be_v to_o fulfil_v all_o these_o type_n and_o figure_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o in_o the_o evangelical_n worship_n than_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o object_n of_o our_o worship_n must_v be_v the_o same_o still_o for_o if_o the_o type_n be_v confine_v in_o its_o nature_n and_o signification_n to_o the_o worship_n of_o one_o god_n than_o the_o whole_a christian_a worship_n which_o be_v signify_v and_o praesigure_v by_o these_o type_n must_v be_v peculiar_a and_o appropriate_a to_o the_o same_o one_o supreme_a god_n as_o for_o instance_n i_o have_v already_o prove_v at_o large_a that_o the_o jew_n be_v to_o worship_v but_o one_o god_n because_o they_o have_v but_o one_o temple_n to_o worship_n in_o and_o all_o their_o worship_n have_v some_o relation_n or_o other_o to_o this_o one_o temple_n and_o therefore_o all_o their_o worship_n be_v appropriate_v to_o that_o one_o god_n who_o temple_n it_o be_v now_o we_o know_v god_n dwel_v in_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n be_v only_o a_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o humane_a nature_n upon_o which_o account_n christ_n call_v his_o body_n the_o temple_n and_o st._n john_n tell_v we_o

to_o it_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v and_o this_o temple_n be_v but_o a_o figure_n of_o the_o incarnation_n of_o christ_n who_o shall_v dwell_v among_o we_o in_o humane_a nature_n than_o all_o the_o christian_a worship_n must_v be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n as_o all_o the_o jewish_a worship_n be_v offer_v to_o god_n at_o the_o temple_n for_o christ_n be_v the_o only_a temple_n in_o a_o strict_a and_o proper_a sense_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n and_o therefore_o he_o alone_o can_v render_v all_o our_o service_n acceptable_a to_o god_n so_o that_o god_n who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o only_a object_n of_o our_o worship_n and_o christ_n consider_v as_o god_n incarnate_a as_o god_n dwell_v in_o humane_a nature_n be_v the_o only_a temple_n where_o all_o our_o worship_n must_v be_v offer_v to_o god_n that_o be_v we_o shall_v find_v acceptance_n with_o god_n only_o in_o his_o name_n and_o mediation_n we_o must_v worship_v no_o other_o be_v but_o only_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o that_o only_a through_o jesus_n christ._n thus_o under_o the_o law_n the_o priest_n be_v to_o intercede_v for_o the_o people_n but_o not_o without_o sacrifice_n their_o intercession_n be_v found_v in_o make_v atonement_n and_o expiation_n for_o sin_n which_o plain_o signify_v that_o under_o the_o gospel_n we_o can_v have_v no_o other_o mediator_n but_o only_o he_o who_o expiate_v our_o sin_n and_o intercede_v in_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n who_o be_v our_o priest_n and_o our_o sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o our_o mediator_n 2._o as_o st._n john_n observe_v if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n jesus_n christ_n the_o righteous_a and_o he_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n the_o law_n know_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o mediator_n of_o pure_a intercession_n a_o mediator_n who_o be_v no_o priest_n and_o offer_v no_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o and_o therefore_o the_o gospel_n allow_v of_o no_o such_o mediator_n neither_o who_o mediate_a only_a by_o their_o prayer_n without_o a_o sacrifice_n such_o mediator_n as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n make_v of_o saint_n and_o angel_n and_o the_o virgin_n mary_n but_o we_o have_v only_o one_o mediator_n a_o mediator_n of_o redemption_n who_o have_v purchase_v we_o with_o his_o blood_n of_o who_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n be_v type_n and_o figure_n thus_o under_o the_o law_n none_o but_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v to_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n now_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n be_v a_o type_n of_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o this_o plain_o signify_v that_o under_o the_o gospel_n 12._o there_o shall_v be_v but_o one_o high_a priest_n and_o mediator_n to_o offer_v up_o our_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n in_o heaven_n he_o and_o he_o only_o who_o enter_v into_o heaven_n with_o his_o own_o blood_n as_o the_o high_a priest_n go_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a many_o priest_n and_o advocate_n on_o earth_n to_o intercede_v for_o we_o as_o there_o be_v under_o the_o law_n great_a number_n of_o priest_n the_o son_n of_o aaron_n to_o attend_v the_o service_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o temple_n but_o we_o have_v and_o can_v have_v but_o one_o priest_n and_o mediator_n in_o heaven_n whoever_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o priesthood_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o law_n be_v typical_a of_o the_o evangelical_n priesthood_n and_o worship_n can_v avoid_v the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n and_o whoever_o will_v not_o acknowledge_v this_o must_v reject_v most_o of_o st._n paul_n epistle_n especial_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n which_o proceed_v whole_o upon_o this_o way_n of_o reason_v now_o this_o manifest_o justify_v the_o worship_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o true_a christian_a worship_n for_o we_o worship_v one_o god_n through_o one_o mediator_n who_o offer_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o when_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n and_o intercee_v for_o we_o as_o our_o high_a priest_n in_o heaven_n which_o answer_v to_o the_o one_o temple_n and_o the_o one_o high_a priest_n under_o the_o law_n but_o though_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v what_o we_o do_v worship_v the_o supreme_a god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o she_o spoil_v the_o analogy_n between_o the_o type_n and_o the_o antitype_n the_o legal_a and_o evangelical_n worship_n by_o do_v more_o when_o she_o send_v we_o to_o the_o shrine_n and_o altar_n of_o so_o many_o several_a saint_n sure_o this_o can_v answer_v to_o that_o one_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n where_o god_n alone_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v there_o be_v as_o many_o temple_n and_o mercy-seat_n now_o as_o there_o be_v shrine_n and_o altar_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n by_o who_o intercession_n we_o may_v obtain_v our_o request_n of_o god_n when_o she_o advance_v saint_n and_o angel_n to_o the_o office_n of_o mediator_n and_o interceslsor_n in_o heaven_n this_o contradict_v the_o type_n of_o one_o high_a priest_n who_o alone_o may_v enter_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n which_o be_v a_o type_n of_o heaven_n for_o there_o be_v some_o difference_n between_o have_v one_o mediator_n in_o heaven_n and_o there_o can_v be_v no_o more_o under_o the_o gospel_n to_o answer_v to_o the_o typical_a high_a priest_n under_o the_o law_n and_o have_v a_o hundred_o mediator_n in_o heaven_n together_o with_o our_o typical_a high_a priest_n to_o have_v a_o mediator_n of_o pure_a intercession_n in_o heaven_n who_o never_o offer_v any_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o can_v answer_v to_o the_o high_a priest_n under_o the_o law_n who_o can_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n without_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n the_o high_a priest_n enter_v but_o once_o a_o year_n into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n which_o be_v typical_a of_o christ_n enter_v once_o into_o heaven_n to_o intercede_v for_o we_o can_v be_v reconcile_v with_o a_o new_a succession_n of_o mediator_n as_o oft_o as_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n please_v to_o canonize_v they_o so_o that_o either_o the_o law_n be_v not_o typical_a of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o gospel_n or_o the_o worship_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n which_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o all_o the_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o law_n can_v be_v true_a christian_a worship_n six_o i_o shall_v add_v but_o one_o thing_n

mediator_n to_o address_v to_o but_o there_o be_v three_o consideration_n which_o may_v satisfy_v any_o man_n how_o far_o this_o be_v from_o a_o perfect_a state_n of_o religion_n 1._o that_o it_o argue_v very_o mean_a and_o low_a conceit_n of_o god_n for_o do_v man_n believe_v god_n to_o be_v so_o wise_a so_o good_a and_o so_o powerful_a as_o real_o he_o be_v they_o will_v be_v content_v with_o one_o infinite_a god_n instead_o of_o ten_o thousand_o mean_a advocate_n the_o worship_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v be_v a_o great_a reproach_n to_o the_o divine_a perfection_n and_o therefore_o such_o worshipper_n must_v have_v very_o imperfect_a and_o childish_a apprehension_n of_o the_o supreme_a be_v which_o be_v a_o plain_a proof_n what_o a_o imperfect_a state_n of_o religion_n this_o be_v for_o the_o perfection_n of_o religion_n be_v always_o proportion_v to_o that_o knowledge_n we_o have_v of_o god_n who_o be_v the_o object_n of_o it_o 2._o this_o worship_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n be_v a_o very_a servile_a state_n it_o subject_n we_o to_o our_o fellow-creature_n who_o be_v by_o nature_n but_o our_o equal_n however_o be_v not_o our_o go_n it_o be_v a_o state_n of_o liberty_n freedom_n and_o honour_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o god_n who_o be_v our_o natural_a lord_n and_o sovereign_n but_o to_o fall_v down_o to_o our_o fellow_n creature_n and_o to_o worship_v they_o with_o divine_a honour_n with_o all_o humility_n of_o address_n and_o sacred_a and_o awful_a regard_n be_v to_o debase_v ourselves_o as_o much_o below_o the_o dignity_n of_o our_o nature_n as_o we_o advance_v they_o above_o it_o the_o excellency_n and_o perfection_n of_o reasonable_a creature_n principal_o consist_v in_o their_o religion_n and_o that_o be_v the_o most_o perfect_a religion_n which_o do_v most_o advance_v adorn_v and_o perfect_a our_o nature_n but_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o a_o abject_a mind_n to_o be_v content_v to_o worship_v the_o most_o excellent_a creature_n which_o be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n than_o to_o own_o the_o vile_a slave_n for_o our_o prince_n mean_a object_n of_o worship_n do_v more_o debase_v the_o soul_n than_o any_o other_o the_o wile_a submission_n and_o the_o more_o our_o dependency_n be_v and_o the_o mean_a they_o be_v the_o more_o imperfect_a our_o state_n and_o religion_n be_v 3._o the_o great_a perfection_n of_o religion_n consist_v in_o the_o near_a and_o most_o immediate_a approach_n to_o god_n which_o i_o think_v these_o man_n can_v pretend_v to_o who_o fly_v to_o the_o patronage_n and_o intercession_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n to_o obtain_v their_o petition_n of_o he_o though_o we_o shall_v allow_v it_o lawful_a to_o pray_v to_o saint_n and_o angel_n to_o mediate_v for_o we_o with_o god_n yet_o we_o can_v but_o own_v it_o a_o more_o perfect_a state_n to_o do_v as_o the_o saint_n and_o angel_n themselves_o do_v go_v to_o god_n without_o any_o other_o advocate_n but_o christ_n himself_o it_o be_v a_o great_a happiness_n to_o have_v a_o friend_n at_o court_n to_o commend_v we_o to_o our_o prince_n when_o we_o have_v no_o interest_n of_o our_o own_o but_o it_o be_v a_o great_a privilege_n to_o go_v immediate_o to_o our_o prince_n when_o we_o please_v without_o any_o favourite_n to_o introduce_v we_o this_o be_v the_o perfect_a state_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o sin_n 6._o and_o because_o we_o be_v son_n god_n have_v send_v forth_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n into_o our_o heart_n cry_v abba_n father_n that_o be_v

effect_n of_o christ_n intertercession_n for_o we_o 16._o that_o we_o may_v now_o come_v bold_o unto_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n that_o we_o may_v obtain_v mercy_n and_o find_v grace_n to_o help_v

as_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n speak_v have_v therefore_o brethren_n boldness_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n by_o a_o new_a and_o live_a way_n which_o
