this_o redemption_n require_v first_o a_o continual_a presence_n of_o the_o mediatoure_n in_o the_o church_n or_o congregation_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o all_o the_o godly_a every_o where_n

the_o same_o against_o infinite_a subtlety_n and_o lyinge_n in_o weight_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o man_n three_o it_o require_v that_o the_o mediator_n shall_v look_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n lest_o he_o shall_v be_v deceive_v by_o the_o outward_a disguise_n of_o hypocrite_n now_o forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o god_n only_o to_o look_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o to_o behold_v the_o inward_a secret_n of_o their_o affection_n sure_o the_o mediator_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v god._n furthermore_n to_o the_o office_n of_o the_o mediator_n this_o also_o

so_o that_o be_v like_a unto_o christ_n our_o brother_n we_o may_v enjoy_v with_o he_o eternal_a joy_n and_o salvation_n this_o thing_n paul_n purpose_v to_o show_v 1._o cor._n 15._o when_o he_o say_v

the_o same_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o us._n let_v we_o continual_o in_o our_o heart_n bear_v about_o with_o we_o these_o cause_n that_o we_o may_v be_v stir_v up_o to_o earnest_a thankfulness_n

one_o person_n and_o why_o this_o thing_n be_v needful_a that_o our_o mediator_n be_v one_o person_n beside_o many_o other_o these_o thing_n do_v confirm_v john_n 1_o the_o word_n become_v flesh_n

many_o weighty_a reason_n certain_a of_o the_o chief_a of_o which_o it_o may_v suffice_v to_o note_v in_o this_o place_n first_o our_o mediator_n god_n and_o man_n must_v be_v one_o person_n that_o

wherefore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o the_o mediator_n by_o a_o certain_a necessity_n shall_v be_v join_v to_o both_o party_n to_o god_n therefore_o who_o by_o our_o sin_n be_v offend_v our_o
