prefigure_v the_o second_o degree_n of_o reconciliation_n by_o christ_n death_n as_o apply_v to_o we_o by_o faith_n but_o you_o will_v say_v if_o god_n be_v first_o angry_a and_o then_o reconcile_v and_o reconcile_v by_o degree_n there_o must_v be_v a_o change_n in_o god_n and_o his_o will_n which_o can_v be_v admit_v i_o answer_v that_o reconciliation_n be_v not_o a_o immanent_a act_n but_o a_o

so_o when_o it_o say_v god_n be_v reconcile_v it_o import_v not_o a_o cool_a alteration_n in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o a_o gracious_a effluxion_n of_o love_n break_v out_o from_o thence_o as_o
