have_v be_v and_o i_o be_o a_o great_a transgressor_n but_o i_o come_v unto_o god_n by_o christ_n i_o be_o one_o of_o the_o coming-transgressor_n i_o have_v be_v a_o transgressor_n but_o i_o be_o a_o

a_o transgressor_n for_o i_o have_v be_v a_o transgressor_n against_o jesus_n christ_n this_o highpriest_n oh_o i_o have_v sin_v against_o this_o great_a highpriest_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o afraid_a he_o will_v not_o intercede_v for_o i_o for_o answer_v to_o this_o i_o shall_v only_o desire_v you_o to_o turn_v to_o the_o 16._o chapter_n of_o number_n the_o 41._o verse_n and_o consider_v it_o due_o answ_n we_o read_v there_o that_o all_o the_o congregation_n murmur_v against_o moses_n and_o aaron_n aaron_n be_v the_o highpriest_n and_o say_v the_o text_n all_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n murmur_v against_o moses_n and_o against_o aaron_n say_v you_o have_v kill_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o have_v murmur_v against_o

atonement_n for_o the_o people_n and_o he_o stand_v between_o the_o dead_a and_o the_o live_n and_o the_o plague_n be_v stay_v they_o have_v sin_v against_o aaron_n the_o highpriest_n and_o yet_o aaron_n but_o the_o typical_a highpriest_n he_o be_v but_o a_o type_n of_o christ_n he_o run_v in_o although_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o he_o and_o he_o stand_v between_o the_o dead_a and_o the_o live_n and_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o they_o oh_o if_o there_o be_v so_o much_o bowel_n and_o compassion_n in_o the_o type_n in_o aaron_n when_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o he_o as_o to_o go_v

this_o may_v be_v more_o full_o make_v out_o to_o we_o if_o we_o do_v but_o take_v in_o the_o three_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v infinite_o willing_a to_o

or_o with_o christ_n such_o as_o do_v believe_v or_o shall_v hereafter_o believe_v and_o all_o those_o poor_a transgressor_n that_o come_v unto_o god_n the_o father_n by_o christ_n now_o observe_v how_o infinite_o will_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v to_o intercede_v for_o we_o that_o be_v thus_o that_o will_v appear_v thus_o first_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v willing_a to_o do_v that_o which_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o anoint_v for_o it_o be_v say_v of_o aaron_n that_o he_o be_v anoint_v and_o that_o ointment_n run_v down_o upon_o his_o beard_n and_o unto_o the_o skirt_n of_o

call_v in_o the_o 10._o of_o isaiah_n the_o anointment_n he_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o oil_n of_o gladness_n above_o all_o his_o fellow_n above_o all_o the_o high-priest_n that_o ever_o be_v before_o he_o and_o he_o be_v anoint_v for_o this_o very_a end_n that_o he_o may_v do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o highpriest_n which_o be_v to_o intercede_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n and_o therefore_o in_o that_o place_n in_o john_n 1_o john_n 2.1_o if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n jesus_n christ_n christ_n signify_v anoint_v if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n but_o who_o be_v that_o he_o be_v jesus_n that_o signify_v your_o saviour_n and_o so_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o intercede_v i_o but_o it_o may_v be_v he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v it_o it_o may_v be_v he_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o anoint_v to_o do_v it_o yes_o he_o be_v call_v christ_n if_o any_o man_n sin_n we_o have_v a_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n jesus_n christ_n or_o if_o you_o will_v saviour_n anoint_v so_o that_o he_o be_v anoint_v for_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n to_o be_v your_o advocate_n now_o if_o a_o man_n do_v receive_v money_n for_o to_o lay_v out_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o other_o poor_a orphan_n or_o the_o like_a if_o a_o man_n be_v faithful_a certain_o he_o will_v lay_v out_o the_o money_n for_o they_o according_a to_o the_o intention_n of_o he_o that_o do_v trust_v he_o with_o the_o money_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v receive_v the_o anoint_v he_o be_v anoint_v as_o our_o great_a highpriest_n to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o priestly_a office_n and_o this_o be_v one_o work_n to_o intercede_v and_o therefore_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v very_o willing_a to_o do_v it_o again_o the_o more_o any_o thing_n be_v the_o work_n of_o a_o man_n relation_n wherewithal_o he_o be_v clothe_v the_o more_o if_o he_o be_v faithful_a be_v he_o willing_a to_o do_v the_o work_n and_o i_o pray_v mind_n it_o a_o little_a when_o man_n be_v exalt_v and_o come_v to_o greatness_n or_o honour_n than_o they_o give_v down_o the_o comfort_n of_o their_o relation_n unto_o those_o that_o depend_v upon_o they_o if_o a_o father_n come_v to_o any_o great_a preferment_n the_o comfort_n of_o the_o relation_n of_o a_o father_n then_o fall_v down_o upon_o the_o child_n run_v down_o then_o upon_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o loin_n and_o so_o if_o one_o friend_n do_v come_v unto_o preferment_n the_o comfort_n of_o the_o relation_n or_o friendship_n fall_v down_o now_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v our_o highpriest_n and_o he_o be_v now_o exalt_v he_o be_v go_v to_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o all_o the_o comfort_n of_o all_o the_o relation_n that_o he_o stand_v in_o towards_o we_o do_v now_o fall_v upon_o we_o and_o therefore_o he_o be_v willing_a he_o be_v very_o willing_a because_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o his_o relation_n and_o further_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o his_o office_n what_o a_o man_n do_v by_o office_n that_o he_o do_v willing_o what_o a_o man_n do_v by_o office_n he_o do_v industrious_o he_o do_v not_o do_v it_o by_o the_o bye_n what_o a_o man_n do_v by_o office_n he_o do_v it_o ready_o according_a unto_o a_o man_n place_n or_o office_n so_o will_v his_o interpretation_n be_v suppose_v now_o a_o child_n that_o have_v very_o good_a part_n

in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o high_a priest_n make_v a_o atonement_n for_o the_o people_n in_o case_n any_o man_n have_v finned_a he_o bring_v a_o sacrifice_n and_o his_o sin_n

sprinkle_v the_o mercy-seat_n and_o lay_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o scape-goat_n and_o so_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o the_o people_n all_o which_o will_v clear_o appear_v in_o that_o 16._o of_o liviticus_fw-la at_o the_o 14._o verse_n he_o shall_v take_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o bullock_n and_o sprinkle_v it_o with_o his_o finger_n upon_o the_o

for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n now_o for_o the_o better_a proof_n of_o this_o great_a gospel-truth_n that_o i_o have_v propound_v i_o shall_v insist_v on_o these_o five_o thing_n first_o that_o when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n die_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o do_v offer_v up_o himself_o a_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n second_o that_o when_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v upon_o the_o altar_n than_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o believer_n past_a present_a and_o to_o come_v be_v all_o lay_v upon_o jesus_n christ_n three_o that_o when_o these_o sin_n be_v thus_o lay_v upon_o christ_n he_o do_v thereby_o give_v full_a satisfaction_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n unto_o divine_a justice_n four_o that_o all_o this_o he_o do_v as_o our_o great_a highpriest_n and_o in_o a_o more_o

so_o take_v all_o together_o as_o one_o present_v it_o unto_o god_n the_o father_n for_o our_o acceptance_n and_o this_o he_o do_v now_o as_o our_o highpriest_n for_o if_o we_o look_v into_o this_o

christ_n our_o great_a highpriest_n when_o he_o offer_v up_o our_o gift_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n first_o answ_n 1_o he_o do_v take_v our_o person_n and_o carry_v they_o in_o unto_o god_n the_o

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

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

the_o saint_n to_o counter-work_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n satan_n do_v tempt_v that_o he_o may_v tempt_v and_o the_o great_a temptation_n usual_o come_v in_o the_o rear_n come_v at_o the_o last_o
