one_o to_o see_v corruption_n 10._o we_o look_v no_o further_o for_o cause_n or_o reason_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o religion_n but_o to_o the_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o god_n 26._o christ_n himself_o limit_v his_o inquisition_n in_o that_o ita_fw-la est_fw-la even_o so_o father_n for_o so_o it_o seem_v good_a in_o thy_o sight_n christ_n body_n do_v not_o see_v corruption_n therefore_o because_o god_n have_v decree_v it_o shall_v not_o the_o humble_a soul_n and_o only_o the_o humble_a soul_n be_v the_o religious_a soul_n rest_v himself_o upon_o god_n purpose_n and_o the_o decree_n of_o god_n which_o he_o have_v declare_v and_o manifest_v not_o such_o as_o be_v conceive_v and_o imagine_v in_o ourselves_o though_o upon_o some_o probability_n some_o veresimilitude_n 35._o so_o in_o our_o present_a case_n peter_n proceed_v in_o his_o sermon_n at_o jerusalem_n &_o so_o paul_n in_o his_o at_o antioch_n they_o preach_v christ_n to_o have_v be_v rise_v without_o see_v corruption_n not_o only_o because_o god_n have_v decree_v it_o but_o because_o he_o have_v manifest_v that_o decree_n in_o his_o prophet_n therefore_o do_v saint_n paul_n cite_v by_o special_a number_n the_o second_o psalm_n for_o that_o decree_n and_o therefore_o both_o saint_n peter_n &_o s._n paul_n cite_v for_o it_o that_o place_n in_o the_o 16._o psalm_n 10._o for_o when_o god_n declare_v his_o decree_n and_o purpose_n in_o the_o express_a word_n of_o his_o prophet_n or_o when_o he_o declare_v it_o in_o the_o real_a execution_n of_o the_o decree_n than_o he_o make_v it_o we_o than_o he_o manifest_v it_o to_o us._n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o mystery_n of_o our_o religion_n be_v not_o the_o object_n of_o our_o reason_n but_o by_o faith_n we_o rest_v on_o god_n decree_n and_o purpose_n it_o be_v so_o o_o god_n because_o it_o be_v thy_o will_n it_o shall_v be_v so_o so_o god_n decree_n be_v ever_o to_o be_v consider_v in_o the_o manifestation_n thereof_o all_o manifestation_n be_v either_o in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o in_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o decree_n and_o when_o these_o two_o concur_v and_o meet_v it_o be_v the_o strong_a demonstration_n that_o can_v be_v when_o therefore_o i_o find_v those_o mark_n of_o adoption_n and_o spiritual_a filiation_n which_o be_v deliver_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o be_v upon_o i_o when_o i_o find_v that_o real_a execution_n of_o his_o good_a purpose_n upon_o i_o as_o that_o actual_o i_o do_v live_v under_o the_o obedience_n and_o under_o the_o condition_n which_o be_v evidence_n of_o adoption_n and_o spiritual_a filiation_n then_o so_o long_o as_o i_o see_v these_o mark_n and_o live_v so_o i_o may_v safe_o comfort_v myself_o in_o a_o holy_a certitude_n and_o a_o modest_a infallibility_n of_o my_o adoption_n christ_n determine_v himself_o in_o that_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_a to_o he_o s._n peter_n and_o s._n paul_n determine_v themselves_o in_o those_o two_o way_n of_o know_v the_o purpose_n of_o god_n the_o word_n of_o god_n before_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o decree_n in_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n it_o be_v prophesy_v before_o say_v they_o and_o it_o be_v perform_v now_o christ_n be_v rise_v without_o see_v corruption_n now_o this_o which_o be_v so_o singular_o peculiar_a to_o he_o that_o his_o flesh_n shall_v not_o see_v corruption_n at_o his_o second_o come_v his_o come_n to_o judgement_n shall_v extend_v to_o all_o that_o be_v then_o a_o live_v their_o hestae_fw-la shall_v not_o see_v corruption_n because_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v and_o
