his_o freegrace_n as_o well_o as_o in_o his_o love_n and_o look_v on_o he_o and_o consider_v he_o in_o this_o order_n of_o work_v god_n first_o and_o more_o proper_o have_v mercy_n upon_o man_n fall_v

of_o mercy_n and_o the_o lord_n god_n merciful_a and_o gracious_a so_o as_o sinful_a man_n who_o by_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o curse_n be_v under_o condemnation_n for_o death_n enter_v

which_o this_o freegrace_n or_o mercy_n be_v exercise_v and_o thus_o light_n be_v wrought_v out_o of_o darkness_n and_o good_a out_o of_o evil_a and_o now_o a_o work_n of_o redemption_n more_o

the_o creature_n make_v only_a way_n and_o liberty_n for_o the_o fullness_n of_o god_n to_o work_v out_o to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n as_o well_o in_o a_o work_n of_o redemption_n as_o creation_n and_o

be_v little_a but_o a_o promise_n of_o the_o woman_n seed_n reveal_v so_o as_o here_o be_v rather_o mercy_n appear_v as_o yet_o then_o love_n and_o a_o remedy_n propound_v to_o man_n for_o sin_n by_o that_o time_n the_o sin_n be_v commit_v to_o show_v that_o god_n be_v never_o a_o enemy_n though_o man_n be_v and_o so_o much_o of_o god_n good_a will_v only_o reveal_v as_o man_n may_v rather_o conceive_v himself_o not_o destroy_v then_o save_v and_o rather_o not_o damn_v then_o redeem_v and_o that_o in_o the_o prophet_n set_v forth_o god_n rather_o at_o first_o in_o mercy_n and_o compassion_n to_o we_o none_o eye_v pity_v thou_o to_o have_v compassion_n of_o thou_o when_o i_o pass_v by_o thou_o and_o see_v thou_o pollute_v in_o thy_o blood_n i_o say_v unto_o thou_o live_v ezek._n 16.6_o and_o the_o apostle_n call_v we_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n that_o he_o may_v make_v know_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o glory_n on_o his_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n rom._n 9.23_o so_o as_o in_o this_o manner_n of_o reveal_v the_o infinite_a work_n of_o salvation_n we_o may_v be_v better_o satisfy_v then_o by_o go_v out_o into_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n counsel_n where_o we_o may_v lose_v ourselves_o rather_o in_o the_o fullness_n of_o truth_n then_o find_v any_o so_o as_o thus_o god_n have_v draw_v out_o thing_n more_o to_o our_o reason_n for_o how_o can_v we_o think_v god_n who_o be_v infinite_o pure_a who_o eye_n be_v pure_a the●_z to_o behold_v iniquity_n can_v love_v a_o sinner_n as_o a_o sinner_n all_o love_n be_v from_o something_o amiable_a in_o the_o thing_n love_v but_o what_o be_v there_o in_o man_n fall_v and_o corrupt_v for_o god_n to_o love_n or_o delight_n in_o to_o make_v his_o delight_n with_o the_o son_n of_o man_n where_o be_v the_o comeliness_n therefore_o god_n must_v from_o m●er_fw-la grace_n more_o proper_o than_o love_n order_n some_o righteousness_n or_o new_a glory_n for_o man_n in_o which_o he_o may_v beautify_v adorn_v and_o love_v

have_v mercy_n on_o we_o and_o give_v christ_n for_o we_o and_o in_o he_o we_o be_v make_v capable_a of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o ●ccepted_v in_o the_o belove_a ephes._n 1.6_o and_o not_o as_o
