this_o delay_v left_a room_n for_o many_o previous_a passage_n and_o a_o preparative_n dispensation_n which_o do_v help_v to_o introduce_v the_o gospel_n with_o the_o more_o efficacy_n and_o glory_n hence_o we_o have_v great_a confirmation_n of_o our_o faith_n from_o many_o and_o plain_a prophecy_n whereby_o we_o be_v enable_v effectual_o to_o silence_n and_o shame_n both_o the_o jewish_a and_o heathen_a adversary_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o none_o now_o can_v resist_v the_o force_n and_o clearness_n of_o the_o evidence_n that_o arise_v thence_o but_o such_o who_o wilful_o shut_v their_o eye_n and_o choose_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_v it_o be_v to_o the_o great_a advantage_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o it_o succeed_v the_o burdensome_a oeconomy_n of_o the_o law_n the_o pedagogy_n of_o which_o discipline_n set_v off_o the_o grace_n and_o sweetness_n of_o that_o liberty_n with_o which_o christ_n have_v make_v we_o free_a but_o though_o the_o messiah_n be_v not_o present_o to_o appear_v yet_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n so_o order_v it_o that_o almost_o every_o great_a thing_n that_o happen_v after_o the_o fall_n shall_v conduce_v to_o make_v up_o a_o more_o solemn_a apparatus_fw-la and_o sacred_a pomp_n as_o it_o be_v to_o usher-forth_a the_o great_a bridegroom_n out_o of_o his_o chamber_n and_o introduce_v he_o into_o the_o world_n the_o two_o first_o

have_v many_o sad_a proof_n and_o experience_n of_o the_o corruption_n of_o their_o own_o natural_a inclination_n and_o consequent_o of_o the_o great_a necessity_n of_o a_o saviour_n whilst_o almighty_a god_n thus_o in_o time_n past_o suffer_v all_o nation_n to_o walk_v in_o their_o own_o way_n as_o st._n paul_n and_o barnabas_n tell_v the_o man_n of_o lystra_n he_o leave_v not_o himself_o without_o witness_n though_o they_o be_v without_o excuse_n but_o send_v unto_o they_o enoch_n and_o noah_n and_o other_o preacher_n of_o righteousness_n so_o that_o their_o condemnation_n be_v most_o

the_o peculiar_a condition_n of_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a that_o those_o gracious_a indulgence_n shall_v be_v tender_v to_o the_o world_n by_o the_o author_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o mediator_n of_o that_o covenant_n even_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n but_o this_o bountiful_a offer_n be_v obstinate_o reject_v by_o that_o obdurate_a and_o irreclaimable_a age._n upon_o this_o the_o divine_a justice_n proceed_v to_o the_o long_o threaten_a judgement_n open_v the_o floodgate_n of_o heaven_n and_o shower_v down_o vengeance_n on_o the_o rebellious_a world_n in_o
