church_n of_o christ_n more_o than_o of_o the_o first_o 10._o david_n therefore_o foreseeing_a by_o faith_n the_o glory_n of_o this_o temple_n jerusalem_n and_o church_n of_o christ_n desire_v almighty_a god_n that_o it_o may_v be_v build_v and_o why_o david_n o_o say_v he_o then_o and_o not_o before_o thou_o shall_v accept_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o justice_n and_o what_o be_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o cross_n to_o wit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n offer_v by_o death_n on_o the_o cross_n this_o sacrifice_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o grace_n receive_v ever_o since_o adam_n fall_n this_o sacrifice_n appease_v god_n his_o wrath_n and_o satisfi_v his_o justice_n in_o pay_v the_o great_a price_n of_o our_o redemption_n by_o this_o sacrifice_n god_n be_v more_o honour_v then_o by_o all_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o ever_o before_o be_v offer_v by_o this_o sacrifice_n we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o his_o angel_n by_o this_o sin_n be_v cancel_v the_o devil_n vanquish_v hell_n that_o be_v limhus_o patrum_fw-la be_v ransack_v and_o all_o those_o prisonner_n enjoy_v a_o jail_n delivery_n death_n be_v despoil_v of_o his_o sting_n yea_o be_v put_v to_o death_n final_o by_o which_o only_a host_n once_o only_o offer_v our_o redemption_n be_v consummate_v 10._o hebr._n 9_o &_o 10._o for_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v by_o one_o oblation_n have_v he_o consummate_v for_o ever_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v 11._o and_o peradventure_o david_n be_v a_o prophet_n and_o have_v a_o more_o explicit_a faith_n then_o the_o other_o jew_v have_v 26._o matth._n 26._o allude_v also_o to_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o christ_n institute_v and_o offer_v at_o his_o last_o supper_n &_o which_o be_v repeat_v by_o the_o priest_n daily_a in_o the_o church_n and_o this_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o thing_n offer_v which_o be_v christ_n differ_v not_o from_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o cross_n because_o in_o both_o sacrifice_n the_o same_o christ_n &_o the_o same_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o he_o be_v offer_v though_o in_o other_o respect_n they_o differ_v because_o that_o of_o the_o cross_n be_v a_o bloody_a sacrifice_n this_o unbloodie_a that_o be_v offer_v in_o its_o own_o form_n this_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o bread_n &_o wine_n that_o be_v a_o real_a mactation_n and_o kill_v of_o christ_n this_o mystical_a only_a that_o be_v our_o redemption_n this_o a_o application_n only_o of_o it_o that_o be_v a_o universal_a cause_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n this_o be_v a_o particular_a cause_n as_o baptism_n be_v which_o determine_v the_o universal_a cause_n to_o determinate_a effect_n that_o impetrate_v grace_n by_o its_o own_o virtue_n this_o by_o virtue_n from_o that_o that_o because_o it_o be_v a_o bloody_a sacrifice_n and_o contain_v the_o full_a price_n of_o our_o redemption_n be_v offer_v but_o once_o because_o a_o bloody_a sacrifice_n be_v but_o once_o kill_v a_o ransom_n or_o redemption_n be_v but_o once_o pay_v this_o because_o it_o be_v a_o mystical_a mactation_n and_o a_o application_n only_o of_o that_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n be_v oftentimes_o offer_v that_o be_v offer_v immediate_o by_o christ_n this_o now_o immediate_o by_o his_o priest_n at_o the_o holy_a altar_n 12._o this_o verity_n of_o the_o unbloodie_a sacrifice_n catholic_a writer_n do_v prove_v by_o all_o those_o kind_n of_o argument_n as_o i_o myself_o have_v in_o some_o book_n of_o i_o by_o which_o the_o great_a mystery_n and_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n be_v prove_v as_o by_o scripture_n counsel_n father_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n but_o because_o i_o intend_v in_o this_o my_o paraphrase_n to_o abstain_v from_o controversy_n and_o only_o to_o stir_v up_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n i_o will_v omit_v all_o such_o argument_n and_o will_v return_v to_o our_o penitent_a king_n and_o prophet_n and_o why_o david_n do_v thou_o so_o much_o desire_v that_o the_o wall_n of_o this_o jerusalem_n and_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v build_v out_o of_o my_o zeal_n say_v he_o of_o god_n his_o great_a glory_n and_o salvation_n of_o other_o for_o then_o say_v he_o shall_v thou_o accept_v sacrifice_n of_o justice_n then_o and_o not_o before_o shall_v thou_o accept_v the_o bloody_a and_o unbloodie_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o true_a sacrifice_n of_o justice_n because_o the_o bloody_a sacrifice_n satisfy_v thy_o justice_n in_o pay_v the_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n &_o the_o unbloodie_a appli_v the_o price_n &_o then_o by_o these_o sacrifice_n thou_o shall_v be_v infinitlie_o more_o honour_v then_o by_o all_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a law_n then_o thousand_o more_o both_o of_o jews_n and_o gentile_n shall_v be_v save_v then_o be_v in_o the_o old_a la_o then_o shall_v be_v lay_v on_o thy_o altar_n not_o calf_n and_o ox_n but_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o thy_o sacred_a body_n and_o blood_n the_o verity_n of_o those_o figure_n 13._o in_o a_o tropical_a or_o moral_a sense_n jerusalem_n &_o the_o temple_n do_v signify_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n david_n desire_v that_o the_o wall_n of_o his_o jerusalem_n the_o force_n of_o his_o soul_n lose_v by_o sin_n may_v by_o grace_n be_v repair_v desire_v thou_o also_o o_o penitent_a sinner_n with_o this_o penitent_a king_n and_o prophet_n that_o the_o force_n of_o thy_o ruinous_a jerusalem_n of_o thy_o soul_n cast_v down_o by_o sin_n may_v be_v repair_v that_o faith_n the_o foundation_n of_o this_o spiritual_a temple_n may_v be_v renew_v if_o it_o be_v lose_v
