what_o his_o undertake_n the_o office_n of_o mediator_n do_v teach_v we_o to_o expect_v may_v full_o answer_v our_o want_n and_o our_o expectation_n from_o it_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n yea_o 1.20_o 2_o cor._n 1.20_o and_o in_o he_o amen_o every_o declaration_n of_o the_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n the_o father_n to_o we_o be_v to_o have_v its_o completion_n through_o christ_n in_o who_o as_o his_o belove_a son_n 3.17_o mat._n 3.17_o he_o be_v well_o please_v and_o in_o who_o alone_o he_o be_v propitious_a to_o we_o 2.14_o luk._n 2.14_o and_o this_o

it_o upon_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o god_n in_o so_o much_o that_o in_o the_o general_n every_o act_n of_o a_o true_o christian_n and_o lively_a faith_n by_o which_o we_o receive_v the_o testimony_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o set_n to_o our_o seal_n that_o god_n be_v true_a 3.33_o joh._n 3.33_o and_o in_o particular_a if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n which_o will_v contain_v our_o acknowledgement_n of_o gild_n and_o obnoxiousness_n to_o divine_a wrath_n and_o our_o look_v upon_o christ_n as_o the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n together_o with_o that_o true_a repentance_n and_o sincere_a affection_n of_o the_o heart_n which_o this_o confession_n as_o be_v make_v not_o to_o man_n but_o to_o god_n do_v require_v we_o be_v then_o teach_v to_o look_v upon_o god_n as_o one_o that_o be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n 1.9_o 1_o joh._n 1.9_o and_o to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n but_o now_o as_o all_o this_o declare_v the_o faithfulness_n of_o god_n and_o the_o excellency_n of_o faith_n which_o not_o only_o ascribe_v the_o great_a honour_n to_o god_n but_o receive_v that_o honour_n from_o god_n as_o to_o have_v no_o less_o evidence_n

declare_v that_o he_o will_v accept_v on_o our_o behalf_n from_o he_o who_o he_o have_v appoint_v the_o mediator_n between_o himself_o and_o we_o so_o all_o this_o do_v suppose_v that_o this_o mediator_n do_v faithful_o perform_v what_o as_o such_o he_o undertake_v to_o perform_v in_o order_n that_o it_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o by_o god_n and_o therefore_o see_v that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n in_o scripture_n have_v declare_v 26._o rom._n 3.25_o 26._o that_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o christ_n to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n through_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a through_o the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n that_o he_o may_v be_v just_a and_o the_o justifier_n of_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o jesus_fw-la it_o become_v necessary_a according_a to_o this_o wise_a appointment_n of_o god_n and_o the_o agreement_n between_o himself_o and_o the_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n that_o this_o mediator_n shall_v be_v make_v like_o unto_o we_o and_o in_o this_o likeness_n that_o be_v in_o our_o nature_n suffer_v for_o our_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o

to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n even_o all_o that_o as_o our_o high_a priest_n he_o have_v undertake_v to_o perform_v for_o our_o perfect_a and_o full_a

20._o col._n 1.19_o 20._o and_o have_v make_v peace_n through_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o cross_n by_o he_o to_o reconcile_v all_o thing_n to_o himself_o it_o be_v put_v beyond_o all_o doubt_n that_o
