Of all the mightie Workes you shall finde Iesus the Author Ioh. 1.3 And the Worke of all Workes is terminated in Him onely Mat. 1.21 Bernar. in Cant. Ser. 15. His Name then is not of short content Oleum effusum Cant. 1.3 it is Oyle that is poured forth aliisque liquoribus supernatat and as Oyle it swimmes above all Liquours The Power Mercie Justice c. of God run forth in this Name This Name shall spread throughout the whole World and at the great Assize of the quick and dead be cryed up on both sides by the Blessed with acclamations of joy Rev. 5. by the Damned in gnashing of teeth and gnawing the tongue Rev. 16.10 11. I confesse it appeared an humble Name but Humility and Glory must consist or our hope is lost He that is Iesus is Iehovah or our Redemption is not wrought for man onely could never be victorious over Death Had you not a little Socinianisme within you would never thinke our Saviour the lesse glorious by his undertakings for us nor God to have the lesse glory by us for acknowledging our well-being in Iesus Your similitude may decipher you it shall not us We bow not as flatterers to their Princes whose onely aime is their owne end But knowing whose receivers we are will not forget to be thankfull nor to be humble when we sue unto him for any supply Who doe otherwise detract from God and how then is he magnified by being called Jehovah by us Secondly The Angels which by the Text must bow as well as we upon the same reason of the Text cannot have respect to the benefit of Salvation They serve Christ for his Glory sake and as he is their Lord. Thirdly And lastly Seeing Devils and Reprobates must fulfill the Text as well as we and that also upon the same reason by these mens grounds they shall be more sincere in their service than we for they must bow to him gratis and as he is their Lord but we must not bow but upon a particular benefit that Christ is become our Saviour I doe ingenuously confesse that this reason that Christ is our Saviour is a very strong reason to move us to glorifie God to the utmost with our bodies and soules being redeemed by so great a price 2 Cor. 6.20 And seeing now that Christ for suffering death is crowned with glory and honour Heb. 2.9 and is now glorified God and man with that glory which he had with his Father before the world began Ioh. 17.3 It highly concernes us to glorifie him now God and Man with the glory and honour wherewith we now glorifie the Father yet it is no reason to prove that we should honour the Sonne more than the Father or the Title Iesus above other Titles of the Deitie Answer Secondly What benefit the Angels have by Christ is before Part 2. Sect. 5. They serve him for preserving them in that estate they have unto his glory Thirdly I must here tell blame me if you will that you are the greatest under-valuer of our Redeemer that I ever knew or thought to know of our profession You will have Devils all Rep●obates fulfill the Text as and as well as we if we bow at the Name of Jesus as our Saviour That is your inference and can be no other who will looke back to your Enthymeme and then goe to your sixt ranke of absurdities in the fourth and fifth may see Nay if we so bow the Devils service will be more sincere then ours O Blasphemie against God and his Church Unto what Times hath God reserved us For the valuing of Salvation we are ranked among and brought beneath the Devils Deus omen avertat this portends no good God for his mercy avert the judgement But what 's the reason of such base thoughts This is it The Devils say you must bow to him gratis and as he is their Lord. Looke unto their pride and Hellish practises on their deprivation of grace and glory in Hells torments Is it for nothing they suffer and doe they suffer nothing As freely as they serve I had rather not be then be such a servant You see why and how they bow for their evill and in horror There 's nothing sincere where is no will unto good What 's your Antithesis to this A very desperate one viz. But we must not bow save upon a particular benefit that Christ is become our Saviour Here 's your complaint if both be joyned The Devils bow for nothing but we must bow for our Salvation My Eyes dropt in the Reading and my Hand trembled at the Writing of your But.

Sect. 9. and my Antiteich Tract 9. Of our Salvation Gods glory is the end and if this be his he cannot have this but in and through him who saved us The Church ever held so and I will never begin to decry her practise Per benedictum Iesum sit Deo laus honor virtus gloria in secula seculorum Amen SECTION VII MAster Page gives this reason why the Name Iesus hath the p●eferment above other Names to be bowed to Answer to second Reply p. 157. viz. because above all other Names it signifieth Christs dying and suffering I cannot say Iesus saith hee but presently I am put in mind of dying Answ First I
