debtor_n when_o he_o come_v and_o look_v upon_o the_o book_n he_o be_v able_a to_o read_v all_o the_o particular_n item_n for_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o item_n for_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o item_n for_o such_o a_o thing_n but_o the_o man_n be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o nature_n of_o cross_v the_o book_n he_o be_v able_a to_o read_v all_o the_o particular_n and_o he_o charge_v it_o still_o upon_o himself_o because_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o cross_v the_o book_n and_o he_o be_v as_o much_o trouble_v how_o he_o shall_v pay_v the_o debt_n as_o if_o it_o be_v not_o pay_v at_o all_o so_o now_o it_o be_v here_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v come_v and_o cross_v our_o book_n with_o his_o own_o blood_n the_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v read_v in_o your_o own_o conscience_n but_o we_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n and_o the_o cross_n of_o the_o book_n we_o charge_v ourselves_o as_o if_o no_o sin_n at_o all_o

father_n and_o that_o be_v the_o three_o four_o this_o now_o he_o have_v do_v as_o our_o great_a highpriest_n and_o in_o a_o more_o transcendent_a and_o eminent_a way_n than_o ever_o any_o high-priest_n do_v before_o for_o though_o the_o highpriest_n do_v come_v and_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o a_o poor_a sinner_n yet_o he_o himself_o be_v never_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n the_o priest_n offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o himself_o never_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n but_o our_o great_a highpriest_n do_v not_o only_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o himself_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n yea_o that_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v then_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old-testament_n it_o can_v not_o purge_v the_o conscience_n not_o only_o because_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v it_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n but_o because_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v perform_v successive_o as_o thus_o a_o man_n sin_v than_o he_o bring_v a_o sacrifice_n sin_n again_o and_o then_o he_o bring_v another_o sicrifice_n and_o once_o every_o year_n the_o highpriest_n go_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o holy_a to_o make_v a_o atonement_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n a_o poor_a soul_n may_v think_v thus_o what_o if_o i_o die_v before_o the_o year_n come_v about_o what_o will_v become_v of_o i_o the_o highpriest_n he_o go_v once_o a_o year_n into_o the_o holy_a of_o holy_a and_o sprinkle_v the_o mercy-seat_n but_o what_o will_v become_v of_o i_o if_o i_o die_v before_o that_o time_n but_o now_o our_o great_a highpriest_n he_o do_v not_o only_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o himself_o the_o sacrifice_n but_o he_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n once_o for_o all_o so_o say_v the_o apostle_n so_o that_o now_o when_o a_o christian_a have_v sin_v he_o be_v not_o to_o think_v of_o a_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v yet_o to_o come_v a_o year_n hence_o but_o he_o be_v to_o look_v unto_o that_o which_o be_v do_v already_o a_o sacrifice_n once_o offer_v and_o once_o for_o all_o so_o that_o he_o need_v not_o be_v in_o suspense_n now_o as_o the_o jew_n be_v his_o conscience_n it_o may_v be_v full_o purge_v from_o sin_n again_o take_v the_o highpriest_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old-testament_n and_o though_o he_o do_v make_v a_o atonement_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n yet_o sometime_o also_o he_o do_v make_v the_o people_n to_o sin_n it_o be_v say_v of_o aaron_n the_o great_a highpriest_n concern_v the_o golden-calf_n that_o he_o do_v make_v the_o people_n naked_a but_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n he_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o sin_n and_o never_o do_v make_v they_o sin_n he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o make_v the_o people_n naked_a that_o he_o cover_v they_o with_o his_o righteousness_n that_o their_o nakedness_n may_v not_o appear_v here_o be_v a_o glorious_a highpriest_n yea_o this_o highpriest_n of_o we_o he_o do_v not_o only_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o sin_n commit_v and_o pay_v the_o debt_n but_o he_o do_v also_o become_v our_o surety_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n he_o do_v not_o only_o pay_v the_o debt_n that_o be_v past_a but_o he_o become_v a_o surety_n for_o time_n to_o

surety_n join_v and_o do_v become_v bind_v with_o the_o debtor_n but_o still_o it_o run_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o debtor_n and_o the_o debtor_n he_o give_v the_o bond_n for_o to_o pay_v the_o debt_n but_o now_o here_o our_o surety_n he_o give_v the_o bond_n and_o we_o that_o be_v the_o debtor_n we_o do_v not_o give_v the_o bond_n for_o to_o pay_v the_o debt_n there_o be_v no_o godly_a

have_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n satisfy_v divine_a justice_n and_o god_n the_o father_n for_o i_o then_o sure_o these_o affliction_n they_o do_v not_o come_v for_o i_o to_o make_v satisfaction_n again_o if_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v satisfy_v for_o my_o sin_n may_n a_o believer_n say_v than_o i_o shall_v never_o be_v damn_v i_o shall_v never_o fall_v from_o grace_n i_o have_v

unto_o you_o like_v unto_o i_o hear_v you_o he_o and_o now_o here_o in_o this_o 17._o of_o matthew_n at_o the_o transfiguration_n moses_n and_o elias_n appear_v which_o they_o do_v not_o in_o the_o 3._o of_o matthew_n first_o consider_v that_o the_o emphasis_n may_v lie_v upon_o the_o word_n hear_v and_o not_o upon_o the_o word_n he_o only_o this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v hear_v you_o he_o his_o face_n do_v shine_v as_o the_o sun_n and_o his_o raiment_n be_v white_a as_o the_o light_n and_o christ_n appear_v in_o great_a glory_n and_o they_o stand_v look_v upon_o he_o nay_o say_v the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n do_v not_o make_v it_o a_o gaze_a matter_n but_o hear_v he_o do_v stand_v look_v upon_o he_o but_o hear_v he_o he_o do_v appear_v in_o such_o a_o glory_n in_o the_o 3._o of_o matthew_n when_o he_o be_v baptize_v and_o therefore_o those_o word_n be_v not_o add_v there_o but_o again_o here_o now_o in_o the_o 17._o chapter_n of_o matthew_n at_o the_o transfiguration_n appear_v moses_n and_o elias_n behold_v at_o the_o 3._o verse_n there_o appear_v unto_o they_o moses_n and_o elias_n talk_v with_o he_o moses_n that_o give_v the_o law_n elias_n that_o restore_v it_o then_o answer_v peter_n and_o say_v unto_o jesus_n lord_n it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o be_v here_o if_o thou_o will_v let_v we_o make_v here_o three_o tabernacle_n one_o for_o thou_o and_o one_o for_o moses_n and_o one_o for_o elias_n peter_n and_o so_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o disciple_n begin_v for_o to_o equalise_v moses_n to_o jesus_n christ_n one_o for_o moses_n and_o one_o for_o elias_n and_o one_o for_o jesus_n christ_n no_o more_o for_o christ_n than_o for_o moses_n now_o the_o lord_n take_v peter_n off_o from_o all_o his_o mistake_n your_o eye_n be_v upon_o moses_n say_v he_o but_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n god_n almighty_a be_o well_o please_v in_o my_o son_n this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v i_o be_o well_o please_v with_o you_o and_o with_o your_o duty_n through_o this_o my_o son_n and_o not_o through_o moses_n and_o therefore_o hear_v christ_n and_o not_o moses_n he_o lay_v this_o in_o upon_o it_o that_o therefore_o they_o shall_v be_v evangelical_n and_o hear_v jesus_n christ_n because_o the_o lord_n christ_n give_v acceptance_n unto_o all_o and_o by_o he_o god_n be_v well_o please_v with_o they_o again_o further_o the_o more_o glory_n christ_n do_v appear_v in_o the_o great_a reason_n there_o be_v why_o we_o shall_v hear_v he_o now_o here_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n appear_v in_o glory_n his_o face_n do_v shine_v as_o the_o sun_n and_o his_o raiment_n be_v white_a as_o the_o light_n in_o the_o 3._o of_o matthew_n he_o be_v there_o baptize_v and_o he_o do_v not_o appear_v in_o glory_n but_o now_o here_o he_o appear_v in_o glory_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n now_o hear_v he_o this_o be_v your_o glorious_a saviour_n hear_v he_o belove_a what_o great_a glory_n can_v jesus_n christ_n appear_v to_o your_o soul_n in_o than_o this_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o love_n he_o take_v every_o one_o of_o your_o duty_n and_o your_o prayer_n and_o he_o carry_v they_o in_o to_o the_o bosom_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o by_o he_o you_o have_v acceptance_n oh_o what_o a_o glorious_a saviour_n have_v you_o therefore_o hear_v he_o this_o be_v that_o if_o any_o thing_n will_v make_v you_o very_o obedient_a to_o christ_n more_o than_o to_o moses_n to_o be_v evangelical_n in_o all_o your_o duty_n yet_o further_o the_o more_o a_o man_n can_v rejoice_v in_o spiritual_a privilege_n with_o humility_n and_o the_o more_o humble_a a_o man_n be_v and_o yet_o can_v rejoice_v in_o his_o spiritual_a privilege_n the_o more_o holy_a he_o be_v there_o go_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o holiness_n to_o it_o to_o join_v these_o two_o together_o for_o a_o man_n to_o rejoice_v in_o his_o spiritual_a privilege_n and_o yet_o to_o be_v humble_a and_o to_o walk_v very_o humble_o some_o there_o be_v that_o look_v upon_o their_o spiritual_a privilege_n and_o rejoice_v much_o but_o they_o do_v walk_n humble_o some_o labour_n to_o walk_v humble_o and_o be_v much_o trouble_v in_o the_o consideration_n of_o their_o own_o evil_n but_o they_o do_v rejoice_v in_o their_o spiritual_a privilege_n give_v i_o a_o christian_n that_o do_v both_o and_o he_o be_v a_o bless_a man_n the_o study_n of_o this_o truth_n that_o be_v now_o before_o you_o will_v teach_v you_o to_o do_v both_o to_o do_v both_o together_o for_o what_o a_o great_a privilege_n be_v this_o not_o a_o sigh_o not_o a_o groan_n not_o a_o duty_n but_o the_o lord_n christ_n take_v it_o and_o carry_v it_o in_o and_o present_v it_o to_o god_n the_o father_n for_o i_o whereby_o i_o have_v acceptance_n consider_v this_o here_o be_v matter_n of_o much_o joy_n and_o rejoice_v i_o but_o it_o be_v christ_n that_o do_v it_o there_o be_v no_o such_o worthiness_n in_o my_o own_o duty_n it_o be_v lose_v and_o cast_v away_o if_o jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o take_v it_o in_o his_o hand_n and_o carry_v it_o into_o the_o bosom_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v i_o not_o walk_v humble_o i_o conclude_v all_o with_o this_o if_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n offer_v up_o all_o our_o gift_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n whereby_o we_o

as_o a_o great_a type_n of_o and_o in_o relation_n to_o jesus_n christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n in_o the_o 7._o chapter_n of_o this_o book_n of_o the_o hebrew_n and_o the_o 6._o verse_n say_v

it_o full_o five_o according_a to_o our_o method_n how_o all_o this_o do_v conduce_v unto_o our_o comfort_n and_o unto_o our_o holiness_n first_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o the_o blessing_n of_o christ_n quest_n 1_o and_o of_o the_o gospel_n be_v and_o wherein_o it_o consist_v i_o answer_v first_o in_o the_o general_n that_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o gospel_n answ_n and_o of_o christ_n consist_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n especial_o and_o not_o in_o temporal_a and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o that_o 1._o of_o the_o ephesian_n and_o the_o 3._o verse_n bless_a be_v the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v bless_v we_o with_o all_o spiritual_a blessing_n in_o heavenly_a place_n in_o christ_n the_o curse_n and_o judgement_n of_o god_n that_o do_v befall_v man_n now_o under_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o in_o outward_a affliction_n and_o bodily_a trouble_n so_o much_o as_o in_o spiritual_a misery_n blindness_n of_o mind_n and_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o so_o also_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o blessing_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o consist_v much_o in_o outward_a thing_n as_o in_o spiritual_a who_o have_v bless_v we_o with_o spiritual_a blessing_n indeed_o if_o we_o look_v into_o the_o old_a testament_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o moses_n do_v bless_v the_o people_n he_o bless_v they_o much_o in_o temporal_a blessing_n in_o the_o 28._o of_o deuteronomy_n and_o the_o 2._o verse_n all_o these_o thing_n shall_v come_v upon_o thou_o and_o overtake_v thou_o if_o thou_o shall_v hearken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n what_o blessing_n be_v those_o bless_a shall_v thou_o be_v in_o the_o city_n and_o bless_v shall_v thou_o be_v in_o the_o field_n bless_v shall_v be_v the_o fruit_n of_o thy_o

and_o thy_o store_n thus_o he_o go_v on_o in_o outward_a blessing_n but_o now_o if_o we_o look_v into_o the_o gospel_n and_o consider_v the_o blessing_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o lay_v they_o together_o with_o moses_n we_o shall_v find_v they_o to_o be_v spiritual_a blessing_n in_o the_o 5._o of_o matthew_n and_o the_o 3._o verse_n etc._n etc._n bless_a be_v the_o poor_a in_o spirit_n for_o they_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n bless_v be_v those_o that_o mourn_v for_o they_o shall_v be_v comfort_v indeed_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o earth_n come_v be_v at_o the_o 5._o vers_n but_o he_o return_v again_o to_o spiritual_a blessing_n bless_a be_v they_o which_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n for_o they_o shall_v be_v fill_v bless_a be_v the_o pure_a in_o heart_n for_o they_o shall_v see_v god_n here_o be_v spiritual_a blessing_n this_o be_v the_o stream_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o run_v this_o way_n when_o the_o lord_n bless_v a_o man_n he_o give_v he_o that_o which_o be_v suitable_a to_o he_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n man_n be_v more_o spiritual_a than_o they_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o gospel-blessing_n they_o be_v spiritual_a blessing_n every_o thing_n give_v and_o communicate_v to_o another_o according_a to_o what_o it_o have_v itself_o the_o sun_n communicate_v light_a unto_o the_o world_n because_o it_o have_v light_v itself_o and_o man_n communicate_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n unto_o his_o child_n because_o he_o have_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n himself_o so_o our_o lord_n christ_n when_o he_o bless_v he_o communicate_v according_a unto_o what_o he_o have_v himself_o and_o his_o blessing_n especial_o consist_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n so_o he_o do_v bless_v indeed_o as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n there_o be_v spiritual_a blessing_n that_o be_v mix_v with_o temporal_a by_o virtue_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o abraham_n so_o now_o outward_a blessing_n be_v throw_v in_o as_o a_o overplus_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o though_o they_o be_v not_o spiritual_a in_o their_o nature_n they_o be_v spiritual_a in_o their_o end_n and_o so_o it_o be_v true_a to_o say_v that_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o christ_n be_v a_o spiritual_a blessing_n but_o more_o particular_o if_o yet_o ask_v i_o wherein_o this_o

they_o shall_v see_v god_n see_v of_o god_n be_v a_o blessing_n out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o christ_n a_o gospel-blessign_a and_o what_o be_v it_o for_o a_o man_n to_o see_v god_n in_o the_o phrase_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o hebrew_n to_o see_v it_o be_v ordinary_o use_v for_o to_o enjoy_v in_o the_o 4._o psalm_n who_o will_v show_v we_o any_o good_a the_o word_n in_o the_o hebrew_n be_v who_o will_v make_v we_o to_o see_v any_o good_a that_o be_v it_o enjoy_v good_a so_o then_o to_o see_v god_n it_o be_v to_o enjoy_v he_o when_o jacob_n enjoy_v god_n he_o see_v he_o and_o the_o

that_o herein_o confist_n the_o blessing_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o a_o supernatural_a and_o spiritual_a in_o joyment_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n the_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n
