be_v a_o offer_v and_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n reason_n and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o my_o brethren_n for_o be_v god_n there_o be_v no_o great_a power_n than_o he_o to_o master_n he_o and_o overcome_v he_o a_o man_n be_v never_o force_v to_o any_o thing_n against_o his_o will_n unless_o some_o outward_a violence_n prevail_v against_o he_o which_o he_o be_v no_o way_n able_a to_o resist_v now_o this_o be_v not_o the_o state_n and_o the_o condition_n of_o our_o saviour_n his_o death_n be_v not_o inflict_v on_o he_o by_o a_o excess_n of_o strength_n in_o those_o that_o give_v he_o up_o to_o it_o his_o father_n be_v not_o able_a to_o constrain_v he_o for_o he_o be_v god_n and_o therefore_o equal_o almighty_a with_o the_o father_n and_o man_n have_v infinite_o less_o ability_n to_o over-rule_v he_o and_o to_o force_v he_o to_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v voluntary_a of_o himself_o and_o this_o he_o clear_o intimate_v in_o that_o speech_n of_o he_o in_o the_o fore-alledged_n scripture_n john_n 10.17_o no_o man_n take_v my_o life_n from_o i_o the_o meaning_n be_v no_o man_n can_v take_v my_o life_n from_o i_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v add_v in_o the_o follow_a word_n i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o that_o be_v to_o lay_v it_o down_o of_o choice_n and_o free_a election_n so_o that_o i_o can_v be_v constrain_v to_o it_o and_o i_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o again_o and_o certain_o if_o he_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o again_o when_o he_o have_v lose_v it_o than_o he_o have_v much_o more_o power_n to_o keep_v it_o when_o he_o have_v it_o and_o enjoy_v it_o so_o that_o you_o see_v he_o be_v not_o neither_o can_v he_o be_v enforce_v to_o die_v but_o of_o his_o own_o accord_n he_o willing_o and_o free_o give_v himself_o to_o it_o use_v 1_o be_v it_o so_o that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v willing_o and_o free_o set_v himself_o a_o part_n to_o be_v a_o offer_v and_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n the_o great_a and_o the_o more_o unsearchable_a be_v the_o exceed_a riches_n of_o his_o love_n to_o we_o and_o the_o great_a cause_n have_v we_o to_o magnify_v it_o and_o admire_v it_o have_v he_o do_v it_o by_o constraint_n and_o have_v be_v be_v enforce_v to_o it_o there_o have_v be_v no_o such_o matter_n in_o it_o so_o no_o such_o cause_n of_o admiration_n and_o thanksgiving_n the_o praise_n have_v then_o be_v due_a to_o he_o that_o force_v he_o and_o not_o to_o he_o that_o be_v enforce_v but_o this_o be_v love_n as_o the_o apostle_n john_n speak_v love_v in_o the_o height_n and_o with_o a_o witness_n this_o be_v unparallelled_a and_o matchless_a love_n that_o christ_n shall_v willing_o and_o free_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o have_v his_o life_n be_v take_v from_o he_o for_o our_o sake_n this_o have_v be_v no_o great_a love_n but_o that_o himself_o shall_v lay_v it_o down_o free_o of_o his_o own_o accord_n here_o be_v love_n and_o here_o be_v mercy_n to_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o in_o all_o age_n what_o that_o he_o shall_v abase_v himself_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v make_v obedient_a by_o another_o but_o that_o he_o shall_v himself_o become_v obedient_a to_o the_o death_n yea_o to_o that_o shameful_a and_o accurse_a death_n that_o he_o shall_v willing_o expose_v himself_o to_o such_o abasure_n to_o such_o indignity_n reproach_n scorn_n and_o to_o such_o unsufferable_a torture_n to_o such_o a_o heavy_a and_o intolerable_a burden_n of_o his_o father_n wrath_n and_o all_o for_o those_o that_o be_v not_o undeserving_a only_o but_o even_o ill_o deserve_v too_o that_o be_v not_o friend_n but_o enemy_n oh_o let_v we_o stand_v astonish_v at_o such_o a_o mercy_n we_o need_v not_o wonder_v that_o he_o who_o love_n and_o kindness_n be_v so_o full_a of_o wonder_n shall_v be_v call_v wonderful_a isa_n 9.6_o be_v it_o so_o that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v willing_o and_o free_o set_v himself_o apart_o to_o be_v use_v 2_o a_o offer_v and_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n then_o let_v we_o learn_v of_o he_o my_o brethren_n as_o willing_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o offer_v up_o ourselves_o our_o person_n our_o estate_n our_o name_n or_o life_n and_o all_o to_o he_o to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n for_o he_o again_o what_o my_o belove_a do_v he_o suffer_v willing_o for_o we_o and_o shall_v we_o suffer_v grudge_o and_o unwilling_o for_o he_o do_v he_o consecrate_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o on_o our_o part_n consecrate_v ourselves_o to_o be_v a_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o he_o if_o he_o shall_v call_v we_o thereunto_o do_v he_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o as_o ready_o give_v ourselves_o for_o he_o again_o do_v he_o take_v up_o his_o cross_n and_o go_v before_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o take_v up_o our_o cross_n too_o and_o follow_v he_o i_o do_v not_o say_v we_o shall_v draw_v cross_n and_o affliction_n on_o ourselves_o but_o if_o they_o come_v upon_o we_o for_o our_o saviour_n sake_n we_o shall_v not_o take_v they_o as_o enforce_v upon_o we_o but_o we_o shall_v free_o set_v our_o shoulder_n to_o they_o and_o cheerful_o submit_v ourselves_o to_o bear_v they_o and_o thus_o far_o of_o the_o first_o conclusion_n mention_v the_o second_o follow_v doctrine_n 2._o christ_n do_v not_o set_v himself_o apart_o to_o be_v a_o offer_v and_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n for_o his_o own_o sake_n but_o for_o his_o people_n sake_n and_o that_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v by_o this_o mean_n not_o that_o they_o may_v be_v justify_v only_o but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v also_o he_o do_v not_o do_v it_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n for_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o he_o and_o so_o in_o that_o respect_n he_o need_v not_o to_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o transgression_n in_o he_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v there_o be_v a_o expiation_n for_o he_o but_o it_o be_v for_o his_o people_n sake_n to_o say_v the_o truth_n all_o that_o he_o do_v all_o that_o he_o suffer_v be_v for_o their_o sake_n for_o their_o sake_n he_o become_v man_n for_o their_o sake_n he_o become_v mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n for_o their_o sake_n he_o become_v a_o king_n a_o prophet_n and_o a_o priest_n and_o as_o a_o priest_n so_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o offering_n to_o the_o father_n for_o he_o offer_v up_o himself_o all_o be_v for_o their_o sake_n and_o that_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v by_o this_o mean_n not_o only_o that_o they_o may_v be_v justify_v but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v also_o that_o which_o be_v the_o scope_n and_o aim_n of_o god_n election_n ephes_n 1.4_o he_o have_v choose_v we_o in_o he_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v holy_a and_o unblameable_a before_o he_o of_o god_n vocation_n 1_o thess_n 4.7_o he_o have_v not_o call_v we_o to_o uncleanness_n but_o to_o holiness_n the_o same_o my_o brethren_n be_v the_o end_n of_o christ_n redemption_n he_o sanctify_a himself_o that_o be_v he_o set_v himself_o apart_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n for_o his_o people_n sake_n that_o they_o also_o may_v be_v sanctify_v as_o you_o have_v it_o in_o the_o text._n he_o love_v his_o church_n and_o out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o this_o love_n of_o his_o he_o give_v himself_o for_o she_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v ephes_n 5.25_o what_o that_o he_o may_v redeem_v and_o justify_v she_o only_o no_o my_o beloved_a more_o than_o this_o that_o he_o may_v sanctify_v and_o cleanse_v she_o too_o through_o the_o wash_n of_o water_n by_o the_o word_n and_o that_o he_o may_v present_v she_o to_o himself_o a_o glorious_a church_n not_o have_v any_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n but_o be_v holy_a and_o without_o blemish_n he_o bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o body_n on_o the_o tree_n that_o we_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n may_v henceforth_o live_v to_o righteousness_n as_o the_o apostle_n peter_n speak_v 1_o pet._n 2.24_o he_o die_v for_o we_o that_o we_o which_o live_v shall_v henceforth_o live_v no_o long_o to_o ourselves_o to_o our_o lust_n and_o to_o our_o end_n but_o to_o he_o who_o die_v for_o we_o he_o have_v perform_v the_o mercy_n promise_v he_o have_v remember_v his_o holy_a covenant_n he_o have_v save_v we_o from_o our_o enemy_n and_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o those_o hate_v we_o luke_n 1.74_o what_o that_o from_o henceforth_o we_o may_v be_v our_o own_o master_n and_o live_v at_o liberty_n and_o walk_n according_a to_o our_o

the_o low_a world_n to_o save_v those_o who_o the_o father_n have_v bestow_v upon_o i_o all_o they_o and_o none_o but_o they_o i_o must_v be_v whole_o rule_v by_o he_o in_o this_o business_n by_o this_o time_n i_o suppose_v the_o point_n be_v full_o clear_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v order_v by_o his_o father_n etc._n etc._n and_o it_o be_v fit_a he_o shall_v be_v so_o the_o reason_n of_o congruity_n be_v such_o as_o these_o reason_n 1_o as_o man_n he_o be_v the_o father_n creature_n and_o therefore_o fit_a he_o shall_v be_v order_v by_o the_o father_n it_o be_v but_o reason_n that_o the_o creature_n shall_v be_v in_o every_o thing_n dispose_v and_o regulate_v by_o the_o will_n of_o the_o creator_n that_o he_o that_o give_v it_o be_v shall_v give_v it_o law_n to_o guide_v the_o motion_n and_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o be_v that_o he_o that_o make_v it_o shall_v govern_v it_o and_o rule_v it_o too_o and_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v whole_o at_o his_o pleasure_n and_o dispose_v from_o who_o it_o have_v its_o esse_fw-la and_o its_o operari_fw-la and_o therefore_o see_v jesus_n christ_n if_o you_o respect_v his_o humane_a nature_n be_v a_o creature_n it_o stand_v with_o reason_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v whole_o regulate_v and_o dispose_v according_a to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o his_o father_n reason_n 2_o and_o as_o he_o be_v the_o father_n creature_n so_o in_o the_o second_o place_n he_o be_v the_o father_n servant_n so_o that_o he_o call_v he_o isa_n 42.1_o behold_v my_o servant_n and_o servant_n be_v to_o do_v their_o master_n will_n and_o not_o their_o own_o they_o be_v in_o every_o thing_n to_o be_v order_v by_o their_o master_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o notable_a that_o god_n the_o father_n have_v call_v our_o saviour_n servant_n speak_v of_o he_o so_o as_o one_o that_o will_v be_v regulate_v and_o dispose_v by_o he_o behold_v my_o servant_n who_o i_o uphold_v he_o shall_v show_v judgement_n to_o the_o gentile_n he_o shall_v not_o strive_v nor_o cry_v etc._n etc._n a_o bruise_a reed_n he_o shall_v not_o break_v and_o so_o on_o thus_o and_o thus_o he_o shall_v do_v and_o this_o he_o shall_v not_o do_v say_v god_n the_o father_n he_o be_v my_o servant_n and_o i_o will_v order_v he_o at_o my_o pleasure_n and_o so_o our_o saviour_n christ_n himself_o profess_v upon_o all_o occasion_n that_o he_o will_v be_v obedient_a to_o the_o father_n as_o a_o servant_n ought_v to_o be_v and_o that_o he_o will_v do_v nothing_o any_o otherwise_o then_o he_o will_v have_v he_o use_v 1_o be_v it_o so_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v order_v by_o his_o father_n in_o the_o work_n he_o do_v in_o this_o world_n and_o first_o of_o all_o in_o the_o work_n of_o satisfaction_n here_o than_o we_o may_v behold_v and_o wonder_v at_o the_o admirable_a condescension_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n that_o be_v god_n coequal_a with_o the_o father_n he_o shall_v in_o his_o assume_v nature_n stoop_v so_o low_a and_o submit_v himself_o so_o far_o for_o our_o sake_n it_o be_v true_a my_o brethren_n as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o be_v whole_o to_o be_v order_v in_o matter_n of_o obedience_n by_o his_o father_n will_n so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v manifest_v in_o the_o law_n which_o he_o have_v universal_o impose_v on_o all_o mankind_n and_o this_o if_o he_o assume_v the_o nature_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o avoid_v but_o this_o work_n of_o satisfaction_n by_o his_o bloody_a death_n and_o passion_n be_v another_o thing_n it_o be_v not_o any_o way_n require_v of_o he_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n nor_o do_v it_o lie_v upon_o he_o as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n but_o it_o be_v that_o in_o which_o he_o willing_o submit_v to_o be_v order_v by_o his_o father_n for_o our_o redemption_n and_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o give_v himself_o to_o death_n for_o we_o as_o you_o may_v see_v that_o place_n for_o instance_n gal._n 2.20_o he_o love_v we_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o to_o offer_v up_o himself_o heb._n 7.27_o to_o humble_v himself_o and_o become_v obedient_a conceive_v it_o passive_o obedient_a to_o the_o death_n yea_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n so_o that_o he_o be_v not_o force_v in_o this_o respect_n you_o see_v to_o obey_v his_o father_n order_n he_o be_v not_o humble_v and_o make_v obedient_a but_o he_o humble_v himself_o and_o become_v obedient_a and_o that_o to_o the_o death_n and_o this_o he_o clear_o intimate_v in_o that_o speech_n of_o his_o joh._n 10.18_o no_o man_n take_v my_o life_n from_o i_o i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o that_o be_v to_o lay_v it_o down_o of_o choice_n and_o free_a election_n so_o that_o i_o can_v be_v constrain_v to_o it_o and_o i_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o again_o and_o certain_o if_o he_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o again_o when_o he_o have_v lose_v it_o than_o he_o have_v much_o more_o power_n to_o keep_v it_o while_o he_o have_v it_o and_o hence_o his_o death_n be_v call_v a_o sacrifice_n because_o he_o voluntary_o submit_v to_o it_o he_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o a_o offering_n and_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n this_o death_n of_o his_o arise_v not_o out_o of_o the_o condition_n of_o his_o nature_n neither_o be_v it_o inflict_v on_o he_o by_o a_o excess_n of_o strength_n in_o those_o that_o bring_v he_o to_o it_o but_o he_o submit_v to_o it_o in_o obedience_n to_o his_o father_n and_o in_o love_n to_o his_o people_n ah_o my_o belove_a what_o a_o miracle_n of_o mercy_n be_v there_o in_o this_o condescension_n that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v stoop_v in_o this_o to_o be_v order_v by_o his_o father_n his_o obedience_n to_o the_o death_n the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n be_v not_o of_o necessary_a duty_n as_o his_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n be_v for_o that_o his_o very_a nature_n call_v for_o but_o it_o be_v of_o humility_n he_o stoop_v below_o himself_o in_o this_o obedience_n he_o humble_v himself_o and_o become_v obedient_a and_o now_o my_o brethren_n shall_v not_o we_o

not_o we_o take_v up_o our_o cross_n for_o he_o i_o do_v not_o say_v we_o shall_v draw_v cross_n and_o affliction_n on_o ourselves_o but_o if_o they_o come_v upon_o we_o for_o our_o saviour_n sake_n

of_o man_n to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n for_o christ_n if_o cross_n and_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n come_v upon_o they_o for_o his_o sake_n how_o do_v they_o murmur_v and_o repine_v ah_o my_o
