curse and death as first condemnation for so the Apostle By the offence of one the fault came on all men vnto cōdemnation Rom. 5.18 Secondly curse for as saith the same Apostle out of Deut. 27.26 Cursed is euerie man that continueth not in all things which are written in the booke of the Lawe to doe them Gal. 3.10 Thirdly death for according to the commination of the law whosoeuer shall not performe euerie iote and tittle of the lawe shall die the death and the conclusion of our Apostle The wages of sinne is death Rom. 6. And the last with condemnation curse and death not temporall or for a time but perpetuall and for euer because man himselfe was neuer able to beare and abide as the Lord himselfe knew who seeth all his frailties and infirmities and yet it being necessarie that man hauing sinned man should suffer for that the sentence of condemnation should not be reuersed nor curse of the lawe reuoked nor the doome of death redeemed but that one must needes die for the people and one for all and not that man alone as being sufficient because all men had trāns gressed nor a beast being too base to satisfie for so great and so manie trespasses nor an Angell as being too weake for such a punishment and passion It pleased God the Father of his gratious goodnesse to send downe his onely begotten sonne out of his owne bosome and it liked also Christ himselfe the sonne of God yea God of God light of light verie God of verie God of his owne intire loue to vouchsafe to discend downe from the highest heauen vpon the earth and to be incarnate incorporate and compassed about with our claiey mould to take vpon him our vile and seruile nature and to be manifested vnto the world in our weake fraile and wretched flesh and to be borne of a silly simple and sinfull woman to performe for man all obedience and to reforme his disobedience to ransome sinne and redeeme his transgression by his body to saue our soules and by his owne death to purchase our liues by his owne crucifying to take away our curse by his owne condemnation to obtaine a common saluation and by his owne sacrifice to make a generall satisfaction for all other vnto God his father O magna gratia magna dignatio And this is that great wonderfull mystery which is so notably set out by the Euangelists in the Gospell which when we consider our spirite must needes be rauished our senses benummed our Witts captiuated and all our outward and inward parts and powers to be astonished that the word should be come fleash Iohn 1.14 and to be made of the seede of Dauid according to the fleash Rom. 1.3 and being in the fourme of God and thinking it noe robberie to be equall with God should make himselfe of no reputation and take vpon him the fourme of a seruant and be made like vnto men and be formed in shape of a man Phil. 2.6.7 which is such a misterie that I may vse Austin words in an other matter Yet fitly applied to this purpose Vt altitudine ipsa rerum superbos terreat profunditate attē tos teneat veritate magnos pascat vtilitate paruulos nutriat in his 5. lib Genesi ad Lite Chapit 3. that with the depth thereof it terrifieth the arrogant which thinke they can conceiue all thinges with the hardnesse thereof it will make men attentiue and studious which otherwise would be idle and negligent and with the truth thereof will exercise the most perfit and able which thinke all matters easie and plaine and lastly with the pressire and fruitfulnesse thereof will nourish the simplier sorte which like younge sucklinges can hardly brooke anie stronge meates and not onely such a misterie but such a greate misterie as what could be greater saith the same Father that a virgin should cōceaue a sonne without the seede of man What greater then that God should be borne of a woman and what finally greater then this that she that confesseth herselfe a lowly handmaid should become the mother of her owne maker Where vpon Austin saieth vpon the Magnificat Misterium incarnationis verbi super omnia constat esse ineffabile Wherein are not only manie but also greate miracles as that a virgin should become a mother God a man Greate miracles and the Creatour a Creature that truth should come out from the Earth that Righteousnesse should looke downe from Heauen that maiestie shuld take vpon it Humilitie that he that is the Auncient of daies and was for euer before all daies and created euery day should be borne in a daie to deliuer vs from the euill of euerie day that he by his birth should bestow vpon his mother the gifte of fruitfulnes yet not take away from her the vertue of virginitie that he that in the beginning of the world made the first Adā according to his own Image and similitude should make himselfe afterwards in the ending of the world according to our similitude and likenesse descending downe vnto vs by that which he tooke of ours deliuering vs by that which remained in himselfe conceiued by the holy Ghost not of the substance but by the power thereof not by generation but by benediction Finally not by propagation but by sanctification and his Mother conceauing him not by man but by God not by seede but by the spirit not by humaine meanes but by the ouer shadowing of the most highest So that as he was borne without Carnall copulation so was he brought forth with out mortall corruption And as he was first borne of his Father before al worldes without a mother and did create the world so secondly was he borne of his mother in the world without a father that he might consecrate by his deuine Maiestie inuisible by his humaine birth visible in them both wonderfull of the one as impossible to be expressed the Prophet saith And who shall declare his generation Esaie 53. Of the other as necessarie to be knowne and credible to be beleeued The Euangelist And the birth of Christ Iesus was after this māner Math 1. Before he was borne abiding in the bosome of his father and yet filling the wombe of his mother in the time of his birth the euerlasting Father in heauen and yet a Young infant vpon the Earth after birth a light shining in the world as Iohn and yet dwelling in the light that cannot be attained vnto as Paule of which his birth and of the manner and ende thereof Austin hath these sweete words Vt Sponsus processit de thalamo suo vt gigas exultauit ad currendam viam speciosus vt sponsus fortis vt gigas amabilis et terribilis serenus seuerus pulcher bonis asper malis that is he went forth as a bridegrome c.
