any_o man_n pluck_v they_o out_o of_o my_o hand_n john_n 10.27_o 28._o and_o this_o i_o do_v this_o eternal_a life_n i_o give_v they_o by_o teach_v and_o instruct_v they_o and_o make_v they_o to_o

expression_n in_o my_o text_n look_v much_o the_o same_o way_n as_o thou_o have_v give_v he_o power_n ever_o all_o flesh_n that_o he_o shall_v give_v eternal_a life_n to_o as_o many_o as_o thou_o have_v give_v he_o and_o this_o be_v life_n eternal_a to_o know_v thou_o the_o true_a god_n and_o so_o on_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o give_v they_o life_n eternal_a by_o make_v they_o to_o know_v thou_o and_o this_o i_o have_v begin_v to_o do_v already_o as_o he_o add_v afterward_o i_o have_v make_v know_v thy_o name_n that_o be_v thy_o nature_n and_o thy_o attribute_n to_o the_o man_n which_o

this_o inchoate_n eternal_a life_n consist_v especial_o in_o save_v knowledge_n this_o be_v eternal_a life_n this_o be_v it_o in_o the_o beginning_n to_o know_v thou_o the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n who_o thou_o have_v send_v so_o that_o the_o point_n to_o be_v observe_v be_v this_o doctrine_n that_o life_n eternal_a or_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v eternal_a be_v begin_v in_o holy_a knowledge_n christ_n give_v eternal_a life_n to_o we_o at_o least_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o it_o when_o as_o the_o prophet_n of_o his_o church_n he_o teach_v we_o and_o cause_v we_o to_o know_v his_o father_n and_o himself_o when_o he_o make_v know_v his_o father_n name_n and_o his_o own_o name_n to_o we_o he_o cause_v we_o to_o pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n in_o he_o be_v life_n say_v the_o evangelist_n 1_o john_n 4._o and_o the_o life_n be_v the_o light_n of_o man_n this_o life_n communicate_v to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v the_o light_n of_o save_v knowledge_n which_o he_o make_v to_o shine_v into_o they_o he_o give_v they_o life_n in_o that_o he_o give_v they_o light_n and_o knowledge_n who_o be_v before_o in_o darkness_n and_o so_o by_o consequence_n in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n as_o the_o scripture_n phrase_n be_v and_o hence_o say_v the_o apostle_n awake_v and_o rise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o christ_n shall_v give_v thou_o light_n eph._n 5.14_o indeed_o as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v ignorant_a and_o in_o the_o dark_a we_o be_v all_o dead_a man_n we_o know_v not_o what_o the_o life_n of_o god_n mean_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n

light_n as_o it_o be_v add_v in_o the_o next_o word_n by_o bring_v life_n and_o immortality_n the_o latter_a as_o i_o take_v it_o be_v the_o explication_n of_o the_o former_a q._n d._n by_o bring_v such_o a_o life_n as_o be_v immortal_a as_o be_v above_o the_o power_n of_o death_n as_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n be_v by_o bring_v this_o to_o man_n by_o shine_v on_o they_o with_o the_o bright_a

this_o appear_v further_a divers_a way_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o life_n eternal_a or_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v eternal_a be_v begin_v in_o holy_a knowledge_n if_o we_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v the_o great_a impediment_n of_o life_n and_o what_o it_o be_v that_o hold_v man_n and_o detain_v man_n in_o a_o state_n of_o death_n it_o be_v apparent_o their_o want_n of_o knowledge_n the_o ignorance_n and_o error_n that_o be_v in_o they_o how_o come_v sin_n and_o with_o it_o death_n into_o the_o world_n but_o by_o cozenage_n and_o deceit_n the_o woman_n be_v deceive_v be_v in_o the_o transgression_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n speak_v 1_o tim._n 2.14_o she_o fall_v into_o it_o by_o a_o mere_a cheat_n and_o how_o be_v man_n continue_v in_o this_o state_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n they_o be_v corrupt_v according_a to_o deceitful_a lust_n eph._n 4_o 22._o look_v as_o their_o lust_n deceive_v they_o more_o or_o less_o so_o be_v they_o more_o or_o less_o corrupt_a and_o therefore_o they_o that_o sit_v in_o darkness_n be_v say_v to_o fit_a in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o which_o way_n then_o shall_v life_n eternal_n be_v begin_v in_o man_n but_o by_o dispel_v this_o darkness_n by_o the_o light_n of_o holy_a knowledge_n and_o by_o translate_n man_n out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o darkness_n as_o the_o expression_n be_v col._n 1.14_o out_o of_o ignorance_n and_o darkness_n which_o have_v such_o a_o power_n upon_o they_o to_o hold_v they_o under_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o to_o keep_v they_o still_o in_o a_o condition_n of_o estrangement_n from_o the_o life_n of_o god_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n insinuate_v in_o the_o cite_a place_n eph._n 4.18_o if_o it_o be_v ignorance_n that_o keep_v man_n from_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n then_o sure_o it_o be_v holy_a knowledge_n that_o begin_v it_o and_o that_o bring_v man_n to_o it_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o the_o life_n eternal_a or_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v eternal_a be_v begin_v in_o holy_a knowledge_n if_o you_o consider_v who_o it_o be_v that_o be_v the_o principal_a efficient_a of_o it_o and_o the_o way_n which_o he_o work_v it_o the_o principal_a efficient_a of_o this_o life_n be_v jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v our_o life_n very_o often_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o he_o be_v say_v to_o give_v it_o in_o the_o word_n which_o i_o

in_o my_o text_n this_o be_v eternal_a life_n this_o be_v the_o life_n which_o he_o give_v to_o know_v thou_o the_o true_a god_n indeed_o he_o give_v it_o to_o we_o as_o a_o prophet_n he_o purchase_v and_o get_v it_o for_o we_o i_o acknowledge_v as_o a_o priest_n by_o his_o invaluable_a satisfaction_n but_o he_o beget_v and_o work_v it_o in_o we_o by_o his_o effectual_a teach_v and_o instruction_n as_o a_o prophet_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v say_v to_o speak_v in_o life_n to_o his_o people_n john_n 6.63_o the_o word_n that_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o they_o be_v life_n to_o show_v we_o that_o

to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n john_n 6.68_o that_o be_v the_o word_n that_o work_v life_n and_o which_o way_n can_v they_o work_v it_o but_o by_o convey_v knowledge_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o he_o that_o hear_v they_o so_o that_o you_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n in_o his_o people_n by_o teach_v they_o by_o work_v save_v

a_o prophet_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o life_n eternal_a be_v begin_v in_o holy_a knowledge_n because_o the_o instrumental_a mean_n of_o life_n be_v the_o mean_n of_o knowledge_n to_o yea_o it_o
