Eternity Secondly He suffered Great Things Wherefore It was to satisfie the Divine Justice of GOD The Divine Justice of GOD was put in Arms and set against the Son for the Revenging of a broken Law and a broken Covenant and the Son of GOD had the Divine Justice of GOD to satisfie for the Original and Actual Transgressions of the Elect and for all the Breaches of the Commands of GOD for that Mans breaking of this Command and for this Mans breaking of that Command and every Mans Sins that is moe than the Hairs of his Head for number Thirdly Look to this and ye will see that it bud to be Great Sufferings he underwent because his Sufferings was as much to manifest a just GOD as the Creation of a World did to manifost a Powerfull GOD and an Almighty GOD So that his Sufferings does as much to manifest a Powerfull and Omnipotent and Just GOD. Fourthly Will ye consider that these Sufferings behoved to be very Great Sufrings For they were such as put the Son of GOD so sore to it that it put him to a Strait as it were it put him to a Stress like a Man indeed that was charged for a Great Sum it put him to a Stress and to Pray and so our LORD was put to such a Stress that he crys now is my Soul troubled and what shall I do And he was put to pray to the Father And then Fifthly Consider this How hard the Sufferings was that he undertook in particular and ye will see that they were very many and great Look to his Sufferings in his Incarnation ye see he had not a Chamber to be brought forth in he bud to be brought forth in a Stable and he had not a Creedell but a Horse Mainger And look to his Sufferings throw all his Life-time how many times he lay thereout at the back of a Bush and had but a Stone to lay his Head on and how many times he was Hungry and Weary and look to his Sorrow what Grief of Mind he had to see People crying out against him just in the midest of his Sufferings and to see Peter deny him even when he was Suffering for him and look what he suffered in the Garden when he drank that Cup that made him sweat great Drops of Blood that came trinkling out of Him and He had not only outward Sufferings but inward also He was bearing the Wrath of GOD upon his Soul that made Blood and Sweat come out of him that made him to Faint that He dought not carry his own Cross but he bud to get help and then look to his Sufferings what a Shamefull Death he was put to what a Painfull Death and what Travel of Soul he was put to not only Travel in Body but Travel in Soul that made him cry out with Strong Crys and Tears unto Him that heard him and he was made to Cry My GOD my GOD Why hast Thou forsaken Me Now for whom was it that he suffered all this Ye will see that and ye would look unto this same Chapter and ye will read them for whom he suffered it was even for many that had pierced and crucified him for they shall look on Him whom they have pierced Zech. 12.10 John 19.37 It was for them that gave him no Thanks for his Sufferings He suffered for them that said it is well wared on him He suffered for them that looked upon him as Despised and Rejected of Men He was a Man of Sorrow and acquainted with Grief Isaiah 53.3 For whom suffered he Even for them that had Denyed him and as the Disciples turned their Back upon him and killed him for them that Esteemed Him not Smitten and Wounded It was even for them he suffered that were like Sheep going astray it was for Sinners and Transgressors that he suffered all this it was for a Company of Poor Men and Women that gave him no Thanks for his Sufferings for they were so far from giving him Thanks that they helped on his Sufferings and some of them Denyed him to the adding to these Sufferings Thirdly Why was it that he suffered We have spoken to that already we shall only say but a word to it First It is to tell you how holy a GOD he is and how just a GOD he is how faithfull he is in the Execution of his Threatnings that he will not pass by one Sin unpunished that speaks out that he is Faithfull that he would have his Threatnings faithfully Executed in that day thou eats thou shall surely die the death Gen 2.17 He will have them fullfilled either in the Principal or in the Cautioner Now for the Vse of this I shall leave it because I would sain gain time There is another Observation and it is this What are the Benefits that Redounds to us by His Sufferings What are the Benefits There is Two mentioned here Peace with GOD and Healing to our Souls What gets Sinners by his Sufferings What get they They get the Feid taken away that is between GOD and them and they get healing to their Transgressions They are not done away and his Blood purge them not away we may be purged from all our Sins by his Blood They must have Clean Water to Sprinkle them and to Cleanse them from all their Transgressions He gives them Peace with GOD throw his Suffering and Peace in their own Conscience everlasting Peace in their own Consciences a Peace that passeth all Natural Vnderstanding There Peaces redounds to his People by his Sufferings And then Fourthly We have how his Sufferings comes to be brought about How came it that the Justice of GOD falls upon him and this leads us unto the Great Contrivance of the Covenant of Redemption wherein this Matter was Contrived in the Counsel of GOD from all Eternity In that he was to have a considerable part of Lost Men and Women and that he was to satisfie for them for a broken Covenant and was to keep them from the Wrath of GOD that was to come upon them by right for the breaking of his Law and this was done by his Sufferings in their Nature for them Now Sirs I desire this

Heaven and that the Son of GOD should have become Man that He should have been put so sore to it
