his_o death_n and_o cite_v heb._n ix_o 12._o to_o that_o purpose_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a no_n socinian_n can_v own_v the_o proper_a notion_n of_o a_o advocate_n or_o intercessor_n be_v one_o who_o

prayer_n may_v ascend_v together_o with_o the_o incense_n luke_n i_o 10._o so_o that_o christ_n intercession_n be_v found_v on_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n but_o it_o be_v not_o the_o

sacrifice_n for_o sin_n be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o aaronical_a priesthood_n to_o make_v atonement_n for_o sin_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o but_o when_o he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n and_o have_v present_v his_o blood_n in_o the_o holy_a place_n he_o be_v no_o long_o than_o a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n but_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedeck_v as_o the_o apostle_n prove_v at_o large_a in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n his_o work_n be_v not_o to_o offer_v himself_o any_o more_o in_o sacrifice_n for_o he_o have_v by_o one_o offering_n for_o ever_o perfect_v they_o who_o be_v sanctify_v but_o his_o office_n be_v to_o bless_v the_o people_n in_o god_n name_n as_o melchisedeck_v bless_v abraham_n god_n have_v send_v his_o son_n to_o bless_v we_o in_o turn_v of_o we_o from_o our_o iniquity_n he_o have_v exalt_v he_o to_o be_v a_o prince_n and_o a_o saviour_n to_o give_v repentance_n unto_o israel_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o now_o in_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n christ_n do_v not_o intercede_v like_o some_o mean_a advocate_n by_o prayer_n and_o entreaty_n have_v all_o power_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n commit_v to_o he_o but_o do_v by_o his_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o he_o receive_v from_o god_n as_o the_o purchase_n and_o reward_n of_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n bestow_v all_o those_o blessing_n on_o we_o which_o we_o want_v and_o pray_v for_o in_o his_o name_n for_o this_o reason_n i_o assert_v that_o christ_n intercession_n be_v the_o power_n of_o a_o regal_a priest_n to_o expiate_v and_o forgive_v sin_n not_o to_o make_v atonement_n for_o they_o which_o he_o do_v by_o his_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n as_o mr._n ferguson_n will_v pervert_v my_o word_n but_o to_o apply_v this_o expiation_n and_o atonement_n to_o we_o in_o the_o actual_a forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v so_o plain_a and_o evident_a a_o truth_n that_o mr._n ferguson_n himself_o can_v deny_v it_o though_o he_o quarrel_n with_o i_o for_o assert_v it_o be_v willing_a it_o seem_v to_o find_v fault_n if_o he_o know_v how_o his_o word_n be_v these_o indeed_o his_o intercession_n as_o upon_o the_o one_o 391._o hand_n it_o be_v found_v on_o his_o oblation_n and_o sacrifice_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o representation_n of_o his_o meritorious_a passion_n and_o a_o continuation_n of_o his_o sacerdotal_a function_n which_o as_o i_o observe_v before_o be_v a_o mistake_a notion_n of_o christ_n intercession_n as_o confound_v his_o sacrifice_n with_o his_o intercession_n which_o be_v indeed_o found_v on_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o receive_v all_o its_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n from_o it_o but_o yet_o be_v of_o a_o distinct_a nature_n and_o consideration_n so_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o have_v its_o effect_n towards_o we_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o interposition_n of_o some_o act_n of_o his_o kingly_a office_n for_o these_o office_n be_v all_o vest_v in_o the_o same_o person_n and_o have_v all_o the_o same_o general_a end_n and_o belong_v all_o to_o the_o work_n of_o mediation_n it_o can_v otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o their_o act_n must_v have_v a_o mutual_a respect_n to_o each_o other_o but_o yet_o the_o priestly_a office_n to_o which_o intercession_n appertain_v be_v formal_o distinct_a from_o his_o kingly_a in_o which_o word_n he_o acknowledge_v that_o christ_n intercession_n as_o it_o respect_v we_o and_o consist_v in_o bestow_v those_o blessing_n on_o we_o which_o we_o want_v and_o which_o he_o have_v purchase_v be_v a_o act_n of_o kingly_a power_n and_o authority_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o i_o assert_v or_o ever_o intend_v to_o assert_v and_o as_o for_o what_o he_o add_v that_o still_o his_o priestly_a office_n be_v formal_o distinguish_v from_o his_o kingly_a i_o ready_o grant_v it_o so_o far_o as_o it_o respect_v his_o sacrifice_n and_o expiation_n which_o be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o aaronical_a priesthood_n but_o as_o it_o respect_v his_o intercession_n which_o be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o melchisedechian_a priesthood_n his_o kingly_a and_o priestly_a office_n be_v so_o close_o unite_v that_o he_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v consider_v as_o a_o regal_a priest_n than_o as_o either_o priest_n or_o king_n because_o it_o be_v the_o exercise_n of_o that_o power_n and_o authority_n which_o be_v found_v on_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o by_o this_o time_n i_o hope_v every_o ordinary_a reader_n will_v see_v what_o a_o vain_a and_o malicious_a attempt_n it_o be_v for_o this_o author_n to_o endeavour_v to_o represent_v i_o as_o a_o socinian_n of_o which_o candour_n and_o ingenuity_n i_o shall_v give_v several_a other_o instance_n hereafter_o and_o that_o he_o may_v have_v spare_v his_o pain_n in_o prove_v that_o the_o kingly_a and_o priestly_a office_n in_o christ_n be_v distinct_a and_o that_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o metaphorical_a but_o a_o proper_a priest_n but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o looking-glass-maker_n he_o quarrel_v still_o that_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n preach_v the_o gospel_n be_v the_o exercise_n of_o his_o regal_a power_n in_o publish_v his_o law_n our_o author_n can_v understand_v that_o to_o enact_v law_n be_v a_o exercise_n of_o a_o regal_a power_n but_o not_o to_o publish_v they_o which_o will_v make_v every_o inferior_a herald_n a_o king_n this_o be_v a_o very_a wise_a objection_n which_o show_v his_o skill_n in_o law_n and_o government_n it_o be_v not_o indeed_o necessary_a for_o a_o king_n to_o publish_v his_o law_n in_o his_o own_o person_n this_o be_v a_o peculiar_a condescension_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o come_v in_o person_n to_o we_o to_o publish_v his_o law_n but_o yet_o the_o publication_n of_o law_n must_v be_v make_v by_o the_o same_o authority_n which_o enact_v they_o for_o publication_n be_v of_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o a_o law_n and_o by_o wise_a man_n than_o our_o author_n put_v into_o the_o definition_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o be_v the_o proper_a exercise_n of_o regal_a power_n i_o doubt_v my_o reader_n will_v be_v quite_o tire_v with_o my_o take_a notice_n of_o such_o impertinent_a cavil_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v add_v but_o one_o or_o two_o more_o which_o be_v very_o remarkable_a and_o dismiss_v our_o author_n for_o the_o present_a i_o commend_v the_o wisdom_n and_o honesty_n of_o our_o church_n for_o teach_v her_o child_n a_o religion_n without_o art_n or_o subtilty_n our_o author_n disprove_v this_o by_o show_v that_o no_o child_n can_v 31._o understand_v the_o church-catechism_n without_o great_a art_n and_o subtlety_n he_o can_v understand_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n without_o understand_v the_o various_a signification_n of_o the_o name_n christ_n and_o whether_o he_o must_v be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n or_o of_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o he_o must_v know_v what_o this_o church_n be_v which_o require_v great_a subtlety_n etc._n etc._n now_o by_o the_o same_o argument_n i_o can_v prove_v that_o a_o child_n can_v understand_v the_o easy_a thing_n in_o nature_n without_o unridle_v all_o the_o mystery_n of_o philosophy_n as_o for_o instance_n at_o this_o rate_n a_o child_n can_v understand_v what_o bread_n be_v unless_o he_o first_o understand_v what_o matter_n be_v and_o then_o he_o
effect_n the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n but_o this_o trouble_v he_o too_o that_o i_o say_v they_o be_v the_o different_a administration_n of_o this_o mediatory_a kingdom_n for_o say_v our_o author_n be_v a_o office_n a_o administration_n no_o by_o no_o mean_n therefore_o i_o say_v they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v look_v on_o as_o different_a office_n but_o as_o different_a administration_n of_o the_o same_o supreme_a office_n which_o comprehend_v they_o all_o but_o then_o he_o will_v fain_o know_v what_o kind_n of_o totum_fw-la a_o mediatory_a kingdom_n be_v to_o the_o office_n of_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n why_o sir_n just_o such_o a_o totum_fw-la as_o consist_v of_o three_o part_n his_o mistake_n which_o occasion_n this_o wonder_a humour_n be_v that_o he_o think_v a_o mediatory_a kingdom_n and_o the_o office_n of_o a_o king_n to_o be_v of_o equal_a extent_n and_o therefore_o that_o the_o office_n of_o a_o king_n can_v not_o be_v contain_v under_o a_o mediatory_a kingdom_n as_o a_o part_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o whole_a whereas_o every_o puny_a in_o divinity_n know_v that_o a_o mediatory_a kingdom_n be_v of_o a_o large_a extent_n than_o the_o mere_a office_n of_o a_o king_n and_o contain_v the_o prophetical_a and_o priestly_a office_n under_o it_o which_o be_v like_o another_o of_o his_o mistake_n that_o because_o as_o he_o observe_v from_o doctor_n jackson_n and_o doctor_n hammond_n christ_n be_v consecrate_v to_o his_o priestly_a office_n by_o his_o suffering_n and_o death_n therefore_o he_o be_v not_o consecrate_v to_o his_o mediatory_a office_n as_o i_o assert_v by_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o power_n as_o if_o christ_n may_v not_o have_v a_o general_a consecration_n to_o his_o mediatory_a office_n and_o a_o particular_a consecration_n to_o the_o particular_a part_n of_o it_o though_o doctor_n hammond_n only_o say_v that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v his_o consecration_n to_o his_o melchisedechi_n a_o priesthood_n but_o be_v itself_o a_o act_n of_o his_o aaronical_a priesthood_n but_o i_o see_v the_o most_o innocent_a expression_n shall_v not_o escape_v the_o severe_a censure_n 388._o when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o man_n who_o can_v understand_v nothing_o which_o be_v out_o of_o their_o common_a road_n of_o phrase_n mr._n ferguson_n draw_v up_o a_o very_a severe_a charge_n against_o i_o upon_o this_o score_n as_o if_o i_o confound_v the_o office_n of_o christ_n and_o deny_v his_o priesthood_n and_o his_o expiation_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o yet_o will_v have_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v in_o a_o very_a good_a humour_n he_o can_v have_v handle_v i_o after_o another_o rate_n true_o what_o his_o humour_n be_v i_o can_v tell_v but_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o either_o his_o understanding_n or_o his_o conscience_n be_v not_o very_o good_a he_o take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o laudable_a pain_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o office_n of_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n though_o they_o be_v not_o separate_v in_o their_o subject_n the_o person_n of_o christ_n yet_o they_o be_v in_o their_o nature_n object_n act_n and_o effect_n distinguish_v one_o from_o the_o other_o but_o do_v i_o any_o where_o deny_v this_o because_o i_o say_v that_o they_o be_v several_a part_n and_o different_a administration_n of_o his_o mediatory_a kingdom_n do_v it_o hence_o follow_v that_o they_o be_v not_o several_a part_n and_o different_a administration_n that_o they_o do_v not_o differ_v in_o their_o nature_n act_n and_o effect_n as_o for_o instance_n the_o paternal_a government_n consist_v of_o very_o different_a part_n as_o the_o education_n of_o child_n provide_v food_n and_o raiment_n for_o they_o correct_v they_o when_o they_o do_v amiss_o and_o encourage_v their_o virtue_n place_v they_o with_o prudent_a master_n and_o governor_n and_o provide_v for_o their_o future_a subsistence_n and_o the_o like_a now_o will_v any_o man_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o feed_v child_n and_o correct_v they_o and_o send_v they_o to_o school_n and_o put_v they_o out_o to_o serve_v a_o apprenticeship_n to_o a_o trade_n whereby_o they_o may_v get_v their_o live_n because_o all_o these_o do_v equal_o belong_v to_o a_o father_n care_n and_o be_v contain_v under_o the_o general_a notion_n of_o paternal_a government_n thus_o when_o we_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o saviour_n or_o which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n a_o mediatory_a king_n and_o that_o the_o office_n of_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n be_v but_o the_o several_a part_n and_o different_a administration_n of_o his_o mediatory_a kingdom_n that_o be_v they_o be_v all_o essential_a to_o the_o office_n of_o a_o saviour_n and_o include_v in_o the_o notion_n of_o it_o and_o necessary_a to_o the_o same_o end_n the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n can_v any_o man_n hence_o reasonable_o infer_v that_o they_o do_v not_o differ_v in_o their_o particular_a nature_n act_n 392._o object_n and_o effect_n but_o mr._n ferguson_n prove_v that_o i_o make_v no_o difference_n between_o christ_n priestly_a and_o kingly_a office_n because_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n offering_n himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n be_v a_o act_n of_o kingship_n but_o i_o say_v no_o such_o thing_n my_o word_n be_v these_o when_o he_o offer_v himself_o a_o

for_o sin_n be_v a_o act_n of_o kingship_n and_o when_o he_o offer_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n he_o act_v like_o a_o king_n the_o first_o signify_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o oblation_n consist_v in_o the_o exercise_n of_o a_o regal_a power_n which_o indeed_o confound_v his_o priestly_a and_o kingly_a office_n the_o other_o only_o signify_v that_o at_o the_o very_a same_o time_n and_o in_o that_o very_a act_n when_o he_o offer_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n he_o exercise_v the_o power_n of_o a_o king_n too_o that_o be_v as_o i_o explain_v

subjoin_v he_o can_v not_o have_v suspect_v i_o of_o socinianize_a or_o of_o confound_v the_o priestly_a and_o kingly_a office_n viz._n herein_o christ_n differ_v from_o other_o king_n that_o he_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o his_o kingdom_n in_o his_o own_o blood_n that_o he_o purchase_v and_o redeem_v his_o subject_n with_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o such_o another_o mistake_v one_o may_v observe_v in_o our_o author_n when_o he_o make_v i_o to_o say_v 395._o that_o the_o sacerdotal_a office_n be_v only_o a_o part_n and_o different_a administration_n of_o the_o regal_a whereas_o i_o never_o think_v that_o the_o sacerdotal_a office_n be_v part_n of_o the_o regal_a office_n but_o that_o the_o priestly_a and_o kingly_a and_o prophetical_a office_n be_v several_a part_n and_o different_a administration_n of_o the_o mediatory_a kingdom_n and_o when_o i_o affirm_v that_o they_o be_v several_a part_n of_o the_o mediatory_a kingdom_n i_o have_v not_o so_o little_a wit_n in_o
