would see them to bee plunged into the bottomless gulf of eternal misery hee would put himself into it to keep them out hee did it willingly When hee did fir stundertake this great work with his Father hee knew what hee should suffer A body hast thou prepared mee it is written in the volume of thy book I should do thy will Heb. 10 5 7. and lo I come I delight to do thy will And what was it It was the suffering of all these things that I have named unto you and I have but even named them unto you Eighthly And yet further the wonder of Christs humiliation my scope is now to present as briefly as may bee as much of Christ as I can unto you that you may have some help for your more clear apprehensions of Christ and how to make him the object of your faith The wonder of Christ appears in this that there should bee such a way to save men as this is that the Son of God should bee thus humbled and this wee finde clearly in Scripture set out to us but that God would have such a way to save sinners and no other this is as great a wonder as any thing it is certainly the astonishment of the Angels and the admiration of the Saints to all eternity that the Lord should look upon base man and that hee should have thoughts to save him that was nothing but when God saw that if hee bee saved hee must bee saved after this way that God should as it were trouble heaven and earth for the saving of a poor wretched sinful creature and though God saw that it would cost him so dear to save a soul yet that hee should go on with his work to save him here is the wonder but this is the way of salvation and this is that that is infinitely above reason not onely above sense but above reason which of the Heathens could have imagined that there should have been such a way to save man by as this Why how wilt thou bee saved I will cry to God for mercy and break off my sin and bee sorry with all my heart why if this were the way there was no wonder in that but know oh thou sinner whosoever thou art that if ever thou bee saved that thou must bee saved by a wonderful way and the truth is considering that this is the way of saving sinners wee may stand and wonder that any are saved when you hear of but few that go to heaven and that most people in the world perish and when you come to hear the way of saving man and what it cost and the great difficulty of it you may then stand and wonder that any should bee saved Oh when ever you think of salvation think wisely of this it is a wonderful work of God to save a sinner and the most wonderful work that ever God did do why because the way of saving a sinner is so strange and truly my Brethren then doth God begin to work savingly upon the heart of a sinner when the sinner begins to stand and wonder at the way of saving and till that time it cannot bee conceived that God is beginning savingly to work upon your hearts I appeal to your consciences you that have gone on in a secure dead-hearted way when was ever your hearts taken up in admiring at the way of Gods saving sinners why if it hath done so that is a good evidence that God is beginning to shew himself unto you in a saving way But now if you go on and have but low thoughts about the way of salvation if your hearts do not sanctifie Gods Name in admiring at the wonderful way of salvation know that yet the Gospel is hidden to you certainly you yet do not understand the counsels of God about the way of salvation when your hearts are not taken up with admiring at the glory of God in it A note of Trial. I will but leave this note of Trial with you whether Christ bee revealed to you have your souls wondred at him My Brethen there are divers things that men wonder at in the world and their hearts are taken with them and all because they understand not Christ the great Wonder of the world Wee read in Rev. 17. that when Antichrist had gotten a great deal of power that the world did wonder at him vers 6. When I saw her I wondred with great admiration c. Antichrist having a great deal of power makes men to wonder much at him Now in vers 8. The Beast which thou sawest was and is not and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit and go into perdition and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world when they behold the Beast that was and is not and yet is saith hee those whose names are not written the book of life that was written from the foundation of the world they shall make a wonder at Antichrist and at his great power and at the way of his falling too So in Rev. 13.2 3. And the Dragon gave him his power and his seat and great Authority c. When the Dragon had given his power to the Beast that is the Civil state and power had given its power unto Antichrist unto their Church-state so that they had the Civil sword in their own hands and were able by that Civil power to force all to come in to their Dictates now the Text saith That they all wondred at it but who are they in Chap. 17. v. 8. those whose names were not written in the book of life so that carnal hearts now may bee taken with the wondring after the pomp and glory of the word and after the power of Antichrist because Antichrist prevails in the world but they are those whose mames are not written in the book of life those whose names are written in the book of life they will never stand wondring at the excellency of Antichrist because of his outward glory no Those whose names are written in the book of life they have learned to wonder at Jesus Christ not at Antichrist let Jesus Christ bee never so mean and humbled and low and persecuted in his members in his Ordinances yet they see that excellency in Jesus Christ as makes them wonder and it is such a wonder as it doth darken all the wonders in the world besides The Fifth SERMON ON The Excellency of Christ Isaiah 9.6 And his Name shall bee called Wonderful THe point that wee are upon you may remember is this That Jesus Christ is the great Wonder of the world As is his Name so is hee Wonderful 9 Therâ— is yet more wonder in it if wee consider that God the Father was well pleased with all this it pleased him so you may finde in Isa 53.10 It pleased him to bruise him It pleased the Father For God the Father taking such delight

doe understand more of Christ than many learned men doe you will say Wee never can beleeve it that such poor ignorant people should understand things of religion better than Learned men and great Rabbies Thou speakest ignorantly and carnally thou dost not understand what the Prophetical Office of Jesus Christ doth mean for God the Father hath anoynted Jesus Christ to come to instruct his elect ones in all the mystery of godlinesse and whatsoever he hath heard from the Father hee tells them When God the Father sent Christ into the World he saith Goe your way and this is the charge that I lay upon you that whatsoever you have heard of me from all eternity first or last reveal it to those souls it is a wonderful benefit that the Saints have by this Prophetical Office of Christ and this is spoken to his Disciples not as eminent only but he calls them friends in the fourteenth verse And all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known to you here is the fruit of Christs friendship you are my friends and here is the fruit of my love to you he doth not say I have called you friends therefore I will give you great possessions in the World no but I have called you friends for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known to you for Jesus Christ to make known these blessed things that he hath heard of the Father that are kept from the wise of the world this is the fruit of Christs friendship therefore though Christ doth not give you Possessions in the world though you bee poor and mean yet you may be dear friends to Jesus Christ Q. How shall I know this A. Why if Christ reveals to your souls those great things of eternal life that he hath heard from the Father certainly you are the friends of Jesus Christ oh that wee could exercise our faith in this Prophetical Office of Christ in which he is wonderful when you would exercise faith upon Christ exercise your faith upon him as a Prophet Lord I am weak and dull but Lord thou hast anoynted thine own Son to reveal unto me thy will as much as concerns my everlasting good look upon Jesus Christ as the wonder of the world in all these things in his Kingly Priestly and Prophetical Office and then doe you honour the Son of God as the Son of God when you look thus upon him And then another Scripture wee have in Joh. 17.8 I have given unto them the words which thou gavest mee and they have received them and have known surely that I come out from thee and they have beleeved that thou didst send mee When I was in thy bosome from eternity thou gavest mee such words and diddest put this upon mee that I should reveal thy will to such and such and every particular one was mentioned unto Christ whom such words should bee made known too saith Christ I have done it I have given unto them the words which thou gavest mee and therefore Christ hee is called the Word especially in regard of his Prophetical Office The Word was made Flesh the Word was God Christ comes to rexeal the minde of his Father unto the children of men as by the words of a man the minde and counsels and thoughts of a man come to bee made known so Christ was the Word of God though I say not that this is all the sense from that but there is a higher sense but this is one thing aimed at that by him the counsels of God come to bee made known to the children of men therefore Christ saith That no man knows the Father but the Son and him to whom the Son shall reveal him Hee comes to reveal God to the children of men And that may bee a third particular 3 The wonder of Christs Prophetical Office it is in the great things that hee is sent to reveal in the high things the supernatural things things that are so infinitely above the reach of reason Let a man bee elevated unto the greatest height of reason hee is not able to reach into the mysteries of godliness no as the Apostle saith in a place in the Corinthians before named it must bee the Spirit of God that searches the deep things of God now this is the Spirit of God that is sent from the Father and the Son that searches the deep things of God they are deep high supernatural glorious things that Jesus Christ doth discover Oh there are unsearchable riches the Apostle calls the Gospel Unsearchable riches rich things that have no footsteps at all in the creature wee can never come by any knowledge that wee can have from the creature to understand those things There is nothing written in the book of Nature in the greâ—t book of Gods Creation and Providence not one letter written of the glorious things of the Gospel Now these are the things that Christ is wonderful in to reveal things that are so high and so wonderful and glorious therefore in Luke 4.22 When Christ was performing that Prophetical Office of his the Text saith That all wondered at the gracious words that proceeded out of his mouth as if they should say Oh here are wonderful things indeed these are secret things indeed that wee were not taught they all did wonder at the gracious things that proceeded out of his mouth It is true before Christ was Incarnate there was somewhat of the mystery of the Gospel and our fore-fathers that were saved were saved by the same Gospel but the knowledge of the glorious mysteries of the Gospel were kept hid till that great Prophet should come into the world and that is a special reason why all the time before the Incarnation of Jesus Christ there was so little knowledge God and the way of eternal life was known so little because the Lord would reserve the Revelation of himself and those great Counsels of his Will concerning mans eternal estate hee would reserve them for the great Prophet to come to reveal and when Christ came then broke forth light into the world and as Christ comes to any place so there breaks forth the light of those glorious supernatural things that are above the reach of reason yea such things as Angels could never have understood therefore I remember it is said in one place That those things are made known to Angels by the Gospel the Lord sending his Ministers in his Name to preach those things from Christ that so the Angels come to understand further things in the mystery of the Gospel than they did before therefore they are things above the reach of any mens understanding whatsoever 4 And especially it will make the Prophetical Office of Christ wonderful if wee adde to this a fourth consideration that these things are not revealed to the wisest and the great ones of the world ☞ but to such men and women that ordinarily have the least understanding in the
well as a Saviour None of them did look upon Jesus Christ that hee might deliver their souls from the power of their sin and work righteousness in them as well as deliver them from the wrath that is to come Therefore though some of them would bee glad to bee saved from hell by Christ yet to look upon Christ in regard of his purity and holiness as altogether lovely this none of them could do Thirdly and lastly None of them did lift up God as the highest end of all and give up themselves and all that they had or were or could do being empty of themselves so as to lift up God as revealed in Christ as the highest end so as God and Christ to bee all in all to their souls they went not thus far And therefore do not think that it is a putting people to great streights to tell them how far many went whose souls were lost and if they went no further their souls would likewise bee eternally lost Now then these things being so what remains but that you should lay them to your hearts Oh lay them to your hearts and if God would but bee pleased this evening to cause every one in this Congregation to examine themselves and call their souls into question O my soul how is it with thee how do things stand between God and thee art thou in such an estate as if God should call for thee out of the body this moment that thou shouldest bee saved Oh bee not satisfied in any thing in the world till you come to a resolution in these things And if you finde that these things speak against you and your souls bee cast by them for the present do not sleight them for verily God will make them good upon thee these things shall stand when thy soul shall perish Wherefore then this is the last use about this point of the dreadful loss of the soul Use Oh then let every man or woman propound this question Act. 16.30 What shall I then do to bee saved The world is troubled with a great many questions at this day questions that have no great necessity in them but here is the great question Men and Brethren what shall I do to bee saved And if people when they meet together would bee taken up and bee asking of this question one of another it would prevent a great many wrangling and jangling questions that men spend their time in oh when they are asking of you many such vain questions answer those vain questions but thus I but do you know how one may do to be saved tell mee something of the way of God about the salvation of my soul and that is that that both Ministers and Christians should most aim at to help one another in they should not fill peoples heads with curious questions and specially young ones for that is a great deceit of the Devil at this day There was never a time wherein there was a more hopeful harvest of young ones than there was two or three years since in England and in this City and because the Devil saw it was in vain to tempt their hearts to their former prophaneness hee labours by all means to cause them to fall into the hands of vain jangling people that shall fill their heads with a great many curious questions about controversies and things that they do not understand and so take away the very strength and life of the work of the Word upon them when as the Scripture tells us plainly that wee must not receive the weak in Faith unto doubtful disputations Rom. 14.1 But Object You will say wee must inquire after all truths Answ It is true but seasonably in their due time It is not for young converts before they bee setled in the main things of Religion to have their heads filled with doubtful disputations it is the plain Scripture and it is as plain if wee would understand it as Thou shalt not steal or commit adultery oh this hath hindered the salvation of many a soul Now therefore this is that that I would aim at to turn the strength of your souls into this great question What shall wee do to bee saved in Ecclesiastes 7. saith the wise man there God hath made man upright but hee hath found to himself many inventions so your books have it but I finde it translated in the old Lattin Hee hath mingled himself with many questions so they turn the phrase Now the Lord take off your hearts from those and give you hearts to attend to this great question What shall wee do to bee saved It was the question you know of the Jaylor in Act. 16.30 And it concerns those that yet have not assurance of what condition their souls are in for salvation to ask this question speedily and not to put it off till they come to sickness and death and then send for Ministers and godly Christians and say Oh! what shall I do how many upon their sick and death beds that never minded to inquire before what they should do to bee saved theâ— are in dreadful anguish and then cry out Oh what shall I do Oh the distressed condition I am in I am afraid my soul is lost for ever what shall I do why dost thou ask it now is this question to ask now when thy soul is going before the great and dreadful God to have the sentence of its eternal doom to bee past upon it Oh it concerns you betimes you young ones as soon as ever you come to know you have souls it concerns you to bee asking this great question What shall I do to bee saved And wee have an example of this of a young man that Christ lookt upon in love because hee was inquisitive about the salvation of his soul the story is in Matth. 19.16 Behold one came and said unto him Good Master what good thing shall I do that I may inherit eternal life and vers 20. It appears that this was a young man The young man saith unto him All these things have I done Oh it were a comely thing for young men to come to Christ and say What shall wee do to have eternal life and it appears that hee was a young Gentleman a man of great possessions and hee is called in the Gospel by St. Luke a Ruler some Interpreters think that that was meant onely in the family for the Jews had some chief in the family that did rule and govern there but this young man hee comes to Christ and that running Mark 10.17 as in Mark 10. where you have the story and Christ lookt upon him and loved him as in vers 21. Oh it is a lovely thing to see young people begin betimes to inquire what they should do to bee saved and wee have had great hopes of young people but here is the policy of the Devil when the Lord was bringing the greatest harvest of young people within this three or four years
