life_n be_v raise_v in_o the_o four_o verse_n and_o die_v no_o more_o all_o then_o that_o be_v raise_v at_o the_o first_o resurrection_n i_o take_v to_o be_v one_o part_n of_o those_o who_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n for_o though_o the_o description_n of_o those_o raise_v in_o the_o four_o verse_n may_v not_o seem_v and_o be_v not_o think_v by_o some_o to_o extend_v to_o all_o the_o faithful_a in_o this_o life_n but_o only_o to_o martyr_n yet_o because_o several_a other_o text_n do_v assure_v we_o that_o the_o dead_a in_o christ_n shall_v rise_v first_o therefore_o by_o the_o warrant_n of_o those_o text_n in_o conjunction_n with_o the_o four_o verse_n i_o do_v extend_v the_o first_o resurrection_n to_o all_o who_o believe_v in_o this_o world_n beside_o they_o who_o do_v not_o receive_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o beast_n nor_o of_o his_o image_n in_o the_o four_o verse_n and_o they_o that_o do_v i_o say_v this_o division_n do_v include_v all_o believer_n and_o unbeliever_n in_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v notorious_a that_o so_o it_o do_v through_o the_o whole_a account_n that_o this_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n give_v we_o of_o the_o beast_n and_o his_o follower_n and_o of_o those_o who_o refuse_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o beast_n 2._o and_o we_o have_v already_o surmise_v that_o some_o of_o those_o who_o be_v raise_v by_o the_o second_o resurrection_n shall_v believe_v and_o be_v save_v and_o that_o too_o before_o the_o great_a white_a throne_n be_v set_v and_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v think_v that_o the_o saviour_n shall_v be_v make_v know_v to_o they_o unless_o some_o of_o they_o be_v to_o have_v receive_v and_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o i_o do_v entire_o exclude_v both_o these_o sort_n of_o believer_n that_o be_v in_o other_o word_n i_o do_v exclude_v all_o who_o shall_v be_v save_v out_o of_o this_o three_o and_o last_o resurrection_n and_o he_o who_o shall_v well_o weigh_v and_o consider_v the_o account_n that_o be_v give_v of_o the_o great_a judgement_n mention_v in_o the_o eleven_o and_o follow_a verse_n will_v i_o believe_v be_v satisfy_v that_o it_o be_v only_o the_o judgement_n pass_v upon_o unbeliever_n for_o as_o the_o book_n that_o be_v open_v be_v mention_v as_o distinct_a from_o the_o book_n of_o life_n so_o it_o be_v express_o say_v that_o they_o be_v judge_v out_o of_o the_o book_n if_o therefore_o the_o book_n of_o life_n do_v contain_v in_o it_o all_o that_o be_v save_v as_o most_o notorious_o so_o it_o do_v for_o beside_o the_o import_n of_o the_o phrase_n the_o text_n

those_o legal_a way_n of_o transfer_v of_o right_n from_o man_n to_o man_n for_o our_o redemption_n be_v purchase_v by_o our_o saviour_n so_o it_o be_v express_o word_v and_o by_o he_o therefore_o convey_v and_o make_v over_o to_o we_o because_o otherwise_o it_o can_v in_o no_o sense_n be_v call_v our_o redemption_n indeed_o a_o purchase_n do_v in_o the_o very_a import_n of_o the_o word_n imply_v the_o acquisition_n of_o a_o thing_n in_o a_o legal_a way_n and_o by_o so_o do_v do_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n imply_v also_o a_o legal_a power_n of_o make_v over_o such_o

only_o legal_o purchase_v who_o pay_v a_o legal_a price_n when_o therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o scripture_n do_v so_o word_n the_o manner_n of_o god_n bestow_v and_o our_o receive_a

will_v such_o a_o man_n so_o thorough_o acquaint_v himself_o with_o the_o new-covenant_n the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o jesus_n christ_n as_o to_o be_v able_a exact_o to_o compare_v it_o with_o that_o law_n which_o be_v the_o business_n of_o his_o profession_n i_o do_v not_o at_o all_o question_n but_o that_o such_o a_o comparison_n judicious_o manage_v will_v go_v a_o great_a way_n in_o

and_o candour_n of_o such_o a_o undertake_n as_o our_o saviour_n be_v by_o which_o he_o show_v more_o tenderness_n to_o other_o than_o to_o himself_o may_v be_v think_v to_o be_v a_o very_a considerable_a motive_n even_o to_o justice_n itself_o so_o far_o as_o be_v possible_a to_o remit_v to_o he_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o that_o rigour_n and_o severity_n which_o sin_n do_v deserve_v and_o then_o if_o notwithstanding_o such_o his_o undertake_n yet_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o pay_v the_o uttermost_a farthing_n that_o be_v to_o die_v how_o can_v we_o hope_v to_o escape_v if_o we_o the_o original_a and_o therefore_o also_o the_o principal_a sinner_n come_v under_o the_o severity_n of_o so_o exact_a a_o justice_n we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o the_o portion_n of_o vengeance_n allot_v to_o we_o in_o such_o a_o case_n will_v not_o be_v less_o severe_a for_o if_o god_n so_o treat_v his_o belove_a because_o interpose_v son_n how_o do_v we_o think_v he_o will_v treat_v avow_v and_o profess_a rebel_n or_o as_o our_o saviour_n himself_o speak_v in_o the_o like_a case_n if_o these_o thing_n be_v do_v in_o the_o green_a tree_n what_o shall_v be_v do_v in_o the_o dry_a 2._o and_o as_o this_o consideration_n may_v serve_v we_o for_o caution_n so_o the_o next_o that_o be_v the_o second_o may_v serve_v we_o for_o consolation_n and_o i_o shall_v give_v it_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o eight_o to_o the_o roman_n ver_fw-la 32._o he_o that_o spare_v not_o his_o own_o son_n but_o deliver_v he_o up_o for_o we_o all_o how_o shall_v he_o not_o with_o he_o also_o free_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n for_o his_o deliver_v up_o his_o son_n for_o our_o sake_n to_o become_v man_n to_o lead_v a_o hard_a and_o uncomfortable_a life_n and_o to_o die_v a_o miserable_a and_o scandalous_a death_n that_o both_o by_o his_o life_n and_o death_n he_o may_v work_v out_o our_o salvation_n be_v such_o a_o exalt_a evidence_n of_o god_n love_n to_o we_o that_o imagination_n

that_o he_o whosoever_o he_o be_v that_o be_v ready_a and_o willing_a and_o that_o too_o even_o to_o performance_n to_o do_v we_o the_o
