jesus_n christ_n who_o take_v our_o flesh_n and_o blood_n upon_o he_o part_v with_o his_o own_o life_n to_o redeem_v we_o from_o a_o inevitable_a danger_n which_o will_v have_v undo_v we_o for_o ever_o and_o in_o recompense_n of_o this_o great_a love_n he_o desire_v we_o only_o to_o make_v ourselves_o happy_a by_o take_v upon_o we_o his_o easy_a yoke_n and_o light_a burden_n and_o can_v we_o be_v so_o ungrateful_a as_o to_o slight_v he_o for_o it_o and_o forget_v his_o command_n what_o band_n or_o cord_n can_v tie_v soul_n near_o together_o than_o that_o love_n which_o be_v strong_a than_o death_n or_o what_o word_n make_v deep_a impression_n upon_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n than_o those_o that_o be_v speak_v by_o their_o die_a friend_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o conceive_v a_o more_o effectual_a way_n to_o expel_v sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o more_o conduce_v to_o the_o further_a of_o goodness_n and_o holiness_n than_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o have_v no_o sin_n of_o his_o own_o to_o satisfy_v for_o shall_v descend_v from_o heaven_n and_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o weakness_n frailty_n and_o drudgery_n of_o our_o mortal_a state_n and_o endure_v such_o deep_a agony_n of_o spirit_n as_o force_v he_o to_o sweat_v drop_n of_o blood_n and_o after_o suffer_v a_o inglorious_a and_o painful_a death_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o this_o mere_o upon_o our_o account_n and_o out_o of_o a_o mighty_a sense_n of_o compassion_n for_o our_o misery_n be_v so_o astonish_v a_o love_n as_o must_v needs_o thaw_v our_o icy_a heart_n and_o dissolve_v they_o into_o tear_n and_o a_o ready_a conformity_n to_o his_o will._n how_o can_v any_o man_n go_v on_o and_o continue_v in_o sin_n when_o he_o consider_v that_o his_o saviour_n come_v for_o this_o only_a end_n into_o the_o world_n that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o work_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n and_o present_v all_o man_n a_o glorious_a church_n to_o god_n without_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n whatever_o sin_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o assault_v thy_o soul_n present_a unto_o it_o thy_o die_a saviour_n who_o with_o his_o outstretch_v arm_n on_o the_o cross_n sue_v for_o admittance_n into_o thy_o strong_a affection_n be_v thou_o ensnare_v with_o pride_n how_o can_v thou_o look_v upon_o thyself_o without_o watery_a eye_n when_o thou_o behold_v the_o son_n of_o god_n bear_v a_o helpless_a infant_n of_o a_o poor_a virgin_n subject_n to_o all_o the_o hardship_n and_o sinless_a infirmity_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o at_o last_o breathe_v out_o his_o innocent_a soul_n on_o the_o cross_n for_o his_o bitter_a enemy_n be_v thou_o covetous_a and_o too_o desirous_a of_o worldly_a enjoyment_n then_o remember_v judas_n and_o consider_v what_o a_o heinous_a and_o bloody_a act_n his_o covetousness_n betray_v he_o to_o even_o the_o deliver_n up_o his_o harmless_a lord_n and_o master_n to_o the_o malicious_a and_o implacable_a jew_n and_o whoever_o set_v his_o heart_n upon_o the_o world_n he_o do_v with_o judas_n sell_v his_o saviour_n thus_o you_o may_v see_v of_o what_o great_a usefulness_n this_o one_o consideration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o the_o mortification_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o this_o the_o gospel_n every_o where_o hold_v forth_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n that_o we_o shall_v express_v his_o death_n on_o the_o cross_n in_o our_o soul_n by_o our_o die_v unto_o sin_n and_o crucify_a all_o our_o corrupt_a lust_n and_o affection_n 4._o another_o powerful_a mean_n by_o which_o man_n be_v draw_v off_o from_o their_o sin_n and_o engage_v in_o holiness_n be_v the_o example_n of_o our_o holy_a lord_n and_o master_n who_o life_n and_o action_n be_v therefore_o careful_o write_v by_o his_o disciple_n that_o man_n may_v learn_v of_o he_o and_o follow_v his_o step_n and_o that_o we_o may_v more_o clear_o discover_v wherein_o we_o be_v to_o imitate_v and_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o those_o action_n which_o our_o lord_n do_v as_o a_o public_a person_n invest_v with_o authority_n from_o heaven_n as_o likewise_o those_o action_n of_o he_o which_o he_o do_v to_o confirm_v his_o mission_n we_o must_v distinguish_v these_o i_o say_v from_o those_o wherein_o he_o be_v set_v as_o a_o example_n for_o we_o to_o imitate_v 1._o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o call_v to_o imitate_v christ_n in_o those_o action_n which_o he_o perform_v as_o a_o public_a person_n for_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n which_o he_o do_v that_o relate_v whole_o to_o his_o office_n as_o he_o be_v the_o messiah_n the_o great_a representative_a of_o mankind_n who_o take_v upon_o he_o and_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n to_o reconcile_v the_o world_n to_o god._n thus_o he_o give_v new_a law_n of_o life_n to_o man_n and_o forgive_v sin_n by_o his_o own_o power_n and_o authority_n and_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n as_o a_o public_a victim_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o world_n to_o these_o we_o may_v add_v his_o fast_v forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n his_o lead_v a_o single_a life_n and_o refuse_v all_o earthly_a honour_n and_o dignity_n and_o hitherto_o likewise_o we_o may_v refer_v that_o action_n of_o zeal_n wherewith_o our_o lord_n be_v possess_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o in_o behalf_n of_o the_o despise_a gentile_n against_o a_o corrupt_a generation_n who_o only_o pretend_v but_o have_v real_o nothing_o of_o true_a zeal_n or_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n in_o they_o when_o as_o st._n matthew_n relate_v it_o chap._n 21.12_o he_o go_v into_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o cast_v out_o all_o they_o that_o sell_v and_o buy_v in_o the_o temple_n and_o overthrow_v the_o table_n of_o the_o money-changer_n and_o the_o seat_n of_o they_o that_o sell_v dove_n 2._o nor_o be_v we_o call_v to_o follow_v and_o imitate_v christ_n in_o those_o action_n which_o he_o do_v to_o testify_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o mission_n that_o he_o come_v from_o god_n and_o act_v by_o his_o sole_a authority_n such_o be_v all_o his_o miraculous_a work_n his_o give_a sight_n to_o the_o blind_a speech_n to_o the_o dumb_a and_o hear_v to_o the_o deaf_a his_o command_v the_o wind_n and_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n which_o instant_o obey_v he_o his_o multiply_a bread_n according_a to_o his_o own_o pleasure_n so_o that_o a_o few_o loaf_n shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v some_o thousand_o of_o eater_n his_o cure_v all_o bodily_a disease_n and_o distemper_n and_o show_v his_o power_n over_o evil_a spirit_n which_o upon_o his_o sole_a command_n and_o word_n be_v force_v to_o leave_v those_o body_n they_o have_v vex_v and_o torment_v but_o above_o all_o his_o raise_v the_o dead_a to_o life_n show_v that_o he_o have_v a_o power_n not_o only_o here_o but_o in_o the_o region_n of_o separate_a soul_n likewise_o now_o in_o neither_o of_o these_o be_v we_o call_v to_o imitate_v our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n but_o though_o we_o be_v not_o enjoin_v to_o follow_v he_o in_o these_o yet_o be_v they_o not_o therefore_o throw_v away_o or_o record_v to_o no_o purpose_n we_o may_v make_v a_o good_a use_n of_o every_o one_o of_o these_o action_n of_o our_o saviour_n though_o we_o lie_v under_o no_o necessity_n to_o imitate_v he_o in_o they_o nay_o it_o be_v a_o presumption_n in_o we_o so_o to_o do_v when_o we_o read_v that_o he_o fast_v forty_o day_n we_o may_v learn_v that_o the_o further_o we_o withdraw_v our_o mind_n from_o bodily_a lust_n and_o affection_n we_o be_v in_o a_o great_a forwardness_n and_o better_a disposition_n to_o converse_v with_o god._n when_o we_o hear_v that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n steadfast_o decline_v all_o earthly_a dignity_n and_o honour_n it_o show_v we_o what_o a_o light_a esteem_n god_n put_v upon_o these_o thing_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o participation_n of_o his_o nature_n in_o true_a goodness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o so_o of_o all_o our_o lord_n be_v miraculous_a action_n which_o be_v as_o so_o many_o credential_n and_o seal_n from_o heaven_n that_o attest_v and_o verify_v his_o commission_n and_o the_o authority_n by_o which_o he_o act_v there_o be_v something_o still_o that_o we_o may_v draw_v for_o our_o encouragement_n and_o support_v in_o that_o holy_a and_o unblameable_a life_n which_o he_o come_v to_o propagate_v in_o the_o world_n when_o we_o find_v he_o by_o a_o miracle_n redress_v the_o infirmity_n of_o mankind_n and_o ease_v they_o of_o their_o sorrow_n by_o cure_v their_o bodily_a distemper_n do_v not_o this_o teach_v we_o to_o be_v of_o a_o compassionate_a temper_n to_o sympathize_v with_o other_o in_o their_o misery_n and_o as_o
