blood_n of_o christ_n speak_v better_a thing_n for_o we_o than_o all_o our_o sin_n speak_v against_o we_o it_o speak_v peace_n to_o our_o soul_n and_o that_o in_o heaven_n purchase_v by_o his_o death_n christ_n die_v as_o a_o testator_n and_o bequeath_v to_o the_o church_n a_o legacy_n of_o peace_n he_o live_v as_o the_o executor_n of_o that_o covenant_n and_o now_o in_o heaven_n convey_v to_o we_o that_o blessing_n of_o peace_n which_o he_o bequeath_v in_o his_o death_n and_o as_o our_o peace_n be_v found_v in_o his_o blood_n so_o it_o be_v conserve_v by_o his_o intercession_n he_o appear_v in_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n as_o our_o ambassador_n to_o make_v up_o all_o those_o difference_n which_o fall_v out_o between_o god_n and_o we_o for_o you_o know_v amity_n and_o friendship_n be_v keep_v between_o foreign_a state_n by_o their_o resident_n and_o agent_n that_o be_v keep_v in_o their_o several_a court_n so_o we_o have_v a_o agent_n in_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o as_o a_o believer_n fall_v into_o sin_n which_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o peace_n between_o god_n and_o we_o so_o that_o peace_n be_v make_v up_o by_o the_o exercise_n of_o repentance_n on_o our_o part_n and_o by_o sprinkle_v of_o christ_n blood_n upon_o we_o on_o god_n part_n the_o renew_a exercise_n of_o repentance_n and_o application_n of_o christ_n blood_n preserve_v that_o peace_n that_o be_v between_o god_n and_o believer_n and_o to_o sum_n up_o the_o force_n of_o the_o argument_n when_o we_o have_v fall_v from_o god_n and_o it_o do_v not_o consist_v with_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n to_o make_v peace_n with_o we_o without_o satisfaction_n than_o be_v he_o please_v to_o pay_v our_o ransom_n out_o of_o his_o own_o treasury_n and_o redeem_v we_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n so_o that_o all_o his_o attribute_n may_v shine_v forth_o in_o their_o lustre_n and_o glory_n in_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o upon_o sure_a term_n we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o challenge_v a_o interest_n in_o his_o favour_n and_o love_n it_o follow_v through_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n it_o be_v call_v a_o everlasting_a covenant_n in_o two_o respect_n 1_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o old_a covenant_n which_o be_v make_v with_o adam_n in_o innocency_n but_o th●●_n covenant_n which_o secure_v to_o we_o the_o reward_n of_o th●●_n 〈◊〉_d do_v not_o secure_a to_o we_o the_o condition_n that_o be_v perfect_a obedience_n and_o in_o reference_n to_o this_o old_a covenant_n sometime_o the_o gospel_n be_v call_v a_o new_a covenant_n sometime_o a_o better_a covenant_n because_o it_o supply_v all_o weakness_n in_o the_o first_o covenant_n not_o as_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v weak_a or_o faulty_a in_o respect_n of_o itself_o for_o the_o law_n be_v holy_a just_a and_o good_a but_o weak_a in_o respect_n of_o we_o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o that_o covenant_n by_o the_o breach_n of_o which_o sin_n and_o death_n come_v into_o we_o shall_v reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n and_o appease_v his_o anger_n and_o therefore_o god_n contrive_v another_o covenant_n for_o we_o a_o covenant_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v make_v with_o we_o in_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v call_v a_o everlasting_a covenant_n because_o it_o remain_v for_o ever_o the_o tenor_n of_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v change_v for_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v only_o abrogate_a &_o make_v null_n while_o frustrate_v as_o to_o the_o intent_n it_o be_v first_o give_v 2_o it_o be_v call_v a_o everlasting_a covenant_n as_o it_o bring_v to_o those_o that_o be_v party_n in_o it_o a_o everlasting_a glory_n so_o the_o lord_n jesus_n his_o blood_n be_v call_v a_o everlasting_a redemption_n for_o it_o ransom_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n from_o that_o eternal_a death_n to_o which_o they_o be_v liable_a and_o give_v they_o a_o title_n to_o everlasting_a life_n for_o this_o covenant_n which_o now_o god_n have_v make_v with_o we_o it_o not_o only_o secure_v the_o reward_n but_o the_o condition_n to_o which_o the_o reward_n be_v make_v for_o god_n say_v i_o will_v plant_v my_o fear_n in_o your_o heart_n that_o you_o shall_v not_o depart_v from_o i_o i_o have_v now_o go_v over_o the_o title_n and_o that_o in_o order_n to_o the_o prayer_n which_o follow_v make_v you_o perfect_a to_o do_v his_o will_n work_v in_o you_o that_o which_o be_v well_o please_v in_o his_o sight_n the_o general_a sum_n of_o it_o be_v this_o that_o god_n of_o peace_n who_o be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o in_o his_o son_n as_o he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o mercy_n to_o we_o so_o he_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o holiness_n to_o we_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n we_o can_v only_o expect_v from_o he_o the_o treasure_n of_o grace_n as_o he_o be_v the_o god_n of_o peace_n for_o god_n as_o he_o be_v our_o judge_n dispense_v to_o sinner_n nothing_o but_o revenge_n there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v expect_v but_o the_o curse_n of_o his_o law_n the_o execution_n of_o that_o sentence_n of_o death_n from_o he_o for_o although_o the_o world_n despise_v holiness_n as_o a_o base_a &_o contemptible_a thing_n they_o have_v rather_o be_v ungracious_a than_o inglorious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n they_o be_v afraid_a to_o be_v holy_a lest_o they_o shall_v be_v the_o public_a scorn_n &_o contempt_n of_o the_o place_n wherein_o they_o live_v although_o holiness_n be_v of_o so_o low_a a_o price_n in_o the_o world_n yet_o in_o heaven_n next_o to_o god_n christ_n and_o the_o spirit_n holiness_n be_v the_o most_o rich_a jewel_n that_o god_n can_v bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v first_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o god_n of_o peace_n before_o we_o can_v beg_v any_o grace_n from_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o apostle_n represent_v god_n by_o these_o title_n that_o he_o may_v encourage_v the_o hebr●●_n to_o believe_v
