the_o first_o 2._o jesus_n be_v and_o be_v the_o fit_a person_n in_o the_o world_n to_o mediate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o there_o be_v no_o creature_n fit_a to_o umpire_n the_o business_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o therefore_o job_n say_v well_o at_o the_o 9th_o chap._n 33._o verse_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o dayman_n betwixt_o we_o that_o may_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o we_o both_o man_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o mediate_v because_o man_n be_v the_o person_n offend_v angel_n not_o fit_a to_o mediate_v for_o the_o shoulder_n of_o a_o angel_n can_v not_o bear_v the_o weight_n of_o mediation-work_a neither_o can_v a_o angel_n satisfy_v god_n the_o father_n not_o fit_a for_o this_o work_n the_o first_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n for_o he_o be_v the_o person_n offend_v the_o holy_a ghost_n not_o fit_a for_o this_o work_n for_o it_o be_v his_o work_n to_o apply_v the_o blood_n of_o this_o mediation_n so_o then_o there_o be_v none_o other_o fit_a but_o christ_n fit_a jesus_n fit_a the_o fit_a person_n for_o first_o of_o all_o he_o be_v the_o person_n appoint_v by_o the_o father_n if_o a_o man_n will_v undertake_v to_o mediate_v between_o two_o and_o be_v not_o choose_v thereunto_o he_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o it_o but_o if_o choose_a than_o he_o be_v fit_a why_o jesus_n be_v the_o person_n choose_v my_o elect_a servant_n say_v the_o father_n who_o i_o have_v choose_v i_o have_v give_v he_o for_o a_o covenant_n unto_o the_o people_n isa_n 42._o 2._o he_o be_v and_o be_v the_o fit_a person_n to_o mediate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o for_o he_o be_v a_o middle_a person_n partake_v of_o god_n nature_n and_o of_o man_n extreme_n be_v join_v together_o by_o a_o middle_n who_o more_o fit_a to_o mediate_v between_o two_o than_o he_o that_o be_v a_o middle_n between_o they_o 3._o he_o be_v the_o fit_a person_n for_o he_o be_v the_o fit_a to_o make_v reconciliation_n between_o god_n and_o we_o to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o and_o we_o unto_o god_n first_o he_o be_v the_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o for_o that_o god_n may_v be_v reconcile_v he_o must_v be_v satisfy_v his_o justice_n satisfy_v and_o his_o anger_n satisfy_v now_o jesus_n christ_n be_v god_n and_o man_n as_o man_n he_o ought_v to_o satisfy_v but_o can_v not_o as_o god_n he_o can_v satisfy_v but_o he_o ought_v not_o but_o as_o god-man_n he_o both_o can_v and_o ought_v and_o so_o the_o fit_a and_o again_o 2._o who_o more_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v god_n unto_o we_o than_o he_o that_o be_v the_o most_o fit_a to_o intercede_v that_o have_v credit_n and_o favour_n and_o love_n with_o the_o father_n now_o jesus_n lie_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o his_o father_n this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n and_o i_o be_v the_o father_n delight_n say_v he_o in_o the_o 8_o of_o prov._n therefore_o the_o most_o fit_a to_o intercede_v and_o so_o to_o reconcile_v god_n unto_o we_o 3._o who_o more_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o than_o he_o that_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v a_o surety_n to_o undertake_v for_o we_o if_o a_o man_n come_v to_o mediate_v with_o a_o person_n offend_v for_o another_o say_v the_o person_n offend_v but_o will_v you_o undertake_v he_o shall_v do_v so_o no_o more_o yes_o why_o then_o i_o be_o willing_a now_o jesus_n be_v call_v our_o surety_n in_o the_o 8_o heb._n he_o undertake_v that_o though_o we_o have_v break_v with_o god_n already_o we_o shall_v break_v no_o more_o and_o therefore_o the_o fit_a person_n to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o but_o second_o the_o fit_a person_n also_o to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n 1._o who_o more_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n than_o he_o that_o can_v change_v our_o nature_n now_o jesus_n be_v able_a to_o change_v our_o nature_n i_o find_v say_v paul_n a_o law_n in_o my_o member_n rebel_a against_o the_o law_n of_o my_o mind_n and_o bring_v i_o into_o captivity_n unto_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v in_o my_o member_n o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n then_o i_o thank_v god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o rom._n 8.2_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n jesus_n have_v make_v i_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o 2._o who_o more_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n than_o he_o that_o can_v beget_v good_a thought_n in_o we_o concern_v god_n so_o long_o as_o a_o man_n have_v hard_a thought_n of_o god_n he_o will_v never_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n now_o jesus_n christ_n lie_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o his_o father_n and_o can_v tell_v the_o soul_n what_o volume_n of_o love_n there_o be_v and_o be_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n for_o it_o from_o all_o eternity_n and_o so_o can_v beget_v love_n in_o the_o soul_n towards_o god_n and_o so_o able_a to_o reconcile_v the_o soul_n to_o god_n you_o have_v it_o clear_o in_o john_n 1.18_o he_o lay_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n etc._n etc._n 3._o and_o then_o to_o say_v no_o more_o but_o this_o who_o more_o fit_a to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n than_o he_o that_o can_v give_v the_o holy_a ghost_n into_o our_o soul_n for_o as_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n so_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n now_o jesus_n give_v the_o spirit_n i_o will_v send_v the_o comforter_n say_v christ_n so_o that_o he_o he_o be_v the_o fit_a person_n in_o all_o the_o world_n to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o and_o to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n and_o so_o the_o fit_a person_n in_o all_o the_o world_n to_o mediate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o so_o you_o have_v the_o second_o thing_n 3._o but_o than_o three_o as_o jesus_n be_v the_o fit_a person_n to_o mediate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o so_o he_o have_v undertake_v this_o work_n of_o mediation_n and_o he_o will_v certain_o carry_v it_o on_o unto_o due_a perfection_n first_o i_o say_v he_o have_v undertake_v it_o and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v the_o mediator_n 1_o tim._n 2.5_o for_o there_o be_v one_o god_n and_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n and_o he_o alone_o be_v the_o mediator_n i_o confess_v indeed_o the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d be_v give_v to_o moses_n and_o moses_n in_o the_o 3d._n of_o gal._n be_v call_v a_o a_o mediator_n the_o law_n be_v ordain_v by_o angel_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o mediator_n vers_fw-la 19_o that_o be_v not_o christ_n but_o the_o law_n be_v ordain_v by_o angel_n in_o the_o hand_n that_o be_v by_o the_o

concern_v christ_n be_v use_v here_o but_o now_o although_o moses_n be_v a_o mediator_n a_o typical_a mediator_n and_o do_v stand_v between_o god_n and_o the_o people_n as_o in_o the_o 5_o of_o deut._n to_o deliver_v out_o the_o law_n unto_o they_o vers_n 5._o i_o stand_v between_o the_o lord_n and_o you_o at_o that_o time_n to_o show_v you_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n though_o i_o say_v moses_n be_v call_v a_o mediator_n because_o he_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o the_o people_n to_o give_v and_o deliver_v out_o the_o law_n to_o they_o yet_o you_o never_o find_v that_o moses_n be_v call_v a_o mediator_n in_o a_o way_n of_o redemption_n or_o satisfaction_n or_o pay_v of_o any_o ransom_n so_o jesus_n only_o be_v in_o the_o 1_o tim._n 2._o there_o be_v one_o god_n and_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n for_o all_o and_o so_o in_o the_o 9th_o heb._n for_o this_o cause_n he_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o what_o cause_n why_o vers_fw-la 14._o how_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o through_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n offer_v up_o himself_o without_o spot_n to_o god_n purge_v your_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n be_v he_o the_o mediator_n it_o be_v never_o say_v so_o of_o moses_n no_o but_o christ_n the_o mediator_n and_o he_o only_o the_o mediator_n in_o a_o way_n of_o satisfaction_n and_o redemption_n and_o pay_v of_o a_o price_n well_o thus_o he_o have_v undertake_v the_o work_n and_o certain_o he_o will_v carry_v on_o his_o work_n of_o mediation_n unto_o due_a perfection_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n he_o be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n as_o moses_n be_v moses_n a_o servant_n he_o as_o a_o son_n moses_n the_o

mediator_n be_v faithful_a in_o all_o the_o house_n of_o god_n to_o a_o pin_n sure_o jesus_n the_o son_n will_v be_v faithful_a in_o this_o work_n of_o mediation_n and_o carry_v it_o on_o to_o the_o uttermost_a but_o than_o you_o will_v say_v what_o assurance_n have_v we_o that_o jesus_n will_v carry_v on_o this_o work_n of_o mediation_n unto_o the_o uttermost_a unto_o due_a perfection_n first_o of_o all_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o the_o first_o great_a promise_n that_o be_v make_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v break_v the_o serpent_n head_n gen._n 3._o say_v the_o lord_n to_o the_o serpent_n i_o will_v put_v enmity_n between_o thou_o and_o the_o woman_n and_o between_o thy_o seed_n and_o her_o seed_n if_o there_o be_v enmity_n between_o satan_n and_o we_o there_o will_v be_v peace_n between_o god_n and_o we_o where_o god_n say_v he_o will_v put_v enmity_n between_o the_o devil_n and_o we_o he_o do_v there_o promise_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v peace_n and_o reconciliation_n between_o god_n and_o we_o now_o this_o here_o he_o say_v and_o how_o shall_v this_o be_v do_v it_o shall_v bruise_v thy_o head_n and_o thou_o shall_v bruise_v his_o heel_n it_o shall_v be_v do_v by_o he_o who_o heel_n in_o his_o suffering_n be_v bruise_v by_o satan_n and_o his_o instrument_n it_o shall_v be_v do_v by_o christ_n 2._o as_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o the_o first_o promise_n so_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o what_o christ_n have_v do_v already_o he_o will_v not_o loose_v what_o he_o have_v do_v he_o will_v not_o loose_v his_o work_n if_o jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o boggle_v nor_o startle_v at_o nor_o fly_v back_o from_o the_o hard_a piece_n of_o mediation_n which_o be_v to_o satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n sure_o he_o will_v not_o give_v in_o and_o start_v back_o from_o the_o easy_a part_n which_o be_v to_o intercede_v in_o heaven_n see_v he_o ever_o live_v to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o 3._o as_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o what_o he_o have_v do_v so_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n also_o of_o his_o delight_n in_o this_o work_n of_o mediation_n if_o a_o man_n undertake_v a_o work_n be_v able_a to_o carry_v it_o through_o and_o take_v delight_n therein_o he_o will_v certain_o carry_v it_o on_o now_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v undertake_v this_o work_n he_o be_v able_a god_n and_o man_n and_o he_o have_v a_o delight_n in_o this_o work_n i_o delight_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n say_v he_o in_o the_o 8_o prov._n i_o be_v by_o he_o as_o one_o bring_v up_o with_o he_o and_o i_o be_v daily_o his_o delight_n rejoice_v always_o before_o he_o rejoice_v in_o the_o habitable_a part_n of_o his_o earth_n and_o my_o delight_n be_v with_o the_o son_n of_o man_n christ_n heart_n be_v much_o in_o this_o work_n of_o mediation_n insomuch_o as_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o 3d_o of_o mal._n you_o shall_v find_v he_o sit_v by_o it_o and_o he_o shall_v sit_v as_o a_o refiner_n and_o purifier_n of_o silver_n and_o he_o shall_v purify_v the_o son_n of_o levi_n why_o that_o they_o may_v offer_v unto_o the_o lord_n a_o offering_n in_o righteousness_n then_o shall_v the_o offering_n of_o judah_n and_o jerusalem_n be_v pleasant_a unto_o the_o lord_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o old_a and_o as_o in_o former_a year_n who_o be_v this_o that_o sit_v thus_o at_o it_o why_o in_o the_o former_a verse_n it_o be_v say_v even_o the_o messenger_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v christ_n jesus_n behold_v i_o will_v send_v my_o messenger_n and_o he_o shall_v prepare_v the_o way_n before_o i_o there_o be_v john_n the_o baptist_n and_o the_o lord_n who_o you_o seek_v shall_v sudden_o come_v to_o his_o temple_n even_o the_o messenger_n of_o the_o covenant_n here_o be_v christ_n who_o you_o delight_v in_o behold_v he_o shall_v come_v and_o what_o shall_v he_o do_v why_o he_o shall_v sit_v at_o this_o work_n his_o heart_n be_v much_o in_o this_o work_n his_o delight_n be_v in_o it_o and_o therefore_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o his_o delight_n that_o he_o will_v carry_v it_o on_o 4._o as_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o his_o delight_n so_o you_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o his_o name_n and_o title_n jesus_n jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o covenant_n why_o jesus_n why_o not_o christ_n why_o not_o jesus_n christ_n as_o in_o other_o scripture_n look_v into_o the_o book_n of_o the_o hebrew_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v frequent_o that_o christ_n be_v call_v jesus_n why_o because_o this_o title_n be_v more_o suitable_a to_o the_o priestly_a office_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o apostle_n be_v open_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o hebrew_n it_o note_v also_o the_o deity_n of_o christ_n jesus_n signify_v saviour_n they_o go_v here_o together_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n why_o because_o as_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n in_o order_n to_o our_o salvation_n so_o he_o be_v a_o saviour_n in_o the_o way_n of_o mediation_n therefore_o they_o go_v here_o together_o and_o therefore_o as_o jesus_n be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a so_o as_o mediator_n he_o will_v perform_v this_o work_n of_o mediation_n to_o the_o uttermost_a and_o thus_o now_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o three_o thing_n namely_o that_o jesus_n have_v undertake_v this_o work_n to_o mediate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o he_o will_v certain_o carry_v it_o on_o unto_o due_a perfection_n 4._o but_o than_o four_o how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_n be_v jesus_n say_v to_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n upon_o a_o threefold_a account_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o stipulation_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o confirmation_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o suretyship_n first_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o stipulation_n for_o he_o it_o be_v that_o do_v strike_v the_o covenant_n for_o we_o with_o god_n the_o father_n see_v what_o be_v say_v in_o 2_o tim._n 1._o who_o have_v save_v we_o say_v the_o apostle_n and_o call_v we_o with_o a_o holy_a call_n not_o according_a to_o our_o work_n but_o according_a to_o his_o own_o purpose_n and_o grace_n which_o be_v give_v we_o in_o christ_n jesus_n before_o the_o world_n begin_v so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o treatment_n between_o god_n the_o father_n and_o christ_n concern_v we_o and_o christ_n receive_v grace_n for_o we_o before_o the_o world_n begin_v and_o as_o the_o first_o adam_n do_v strike_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n with_o god_n the_o father_n for_o his_o seed_n so_o jesus_n do_v strike_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n for_o his_o seed_n with_o god_n the_o father_n and_o so_o call_v the_o second_o adam_n a_o mediator_n therefore_o of_o the_o new_a covenant_n he_o be_v in_o regard_n of_o stipulation_n he_o it_o be_v that_o strike_v up_o the_o covenant_n first_o with_o the_o father_n 2._o as_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o stipulation_n so_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o confirmation_n for_o he_o have_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n he_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n by_o his_o active_a obedience_n while_o he_o live_v and_o by_o his_o passive_a obedience_n when_o he_o die_v by_o his_o active_a obedience_n while_o he_o live_v dan._n 9.27_o he_o shall_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n with_o many_o for_o one_o week_n larabbim_n you_o read_v it_o with_o many_o but_o rather_o he_o shall_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n for_o many_o not_o for_o all_o but_o he_o shall_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n for_o many_o for_o one_o week_n and_o he_o do_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n also_o

of_o the_o transgression_n that_o be_v under_o the_o first_o testament_n they_o which_o be_v call_v may_v receive_v the_o promise_n for_o the_o apostle_n explain_v it_o by_o a_o similitude_n where_o

the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n if_o you_o look_v therefore_o into_o the_o old_a testament_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o sprinkle_v blood_n upon_o a_o fourfold_a account_n to_o confirm_v and_o

now_o make_v between_o god_n and_o we_o as_o at_o large_a in_o that_o 9th_o of_o the_o hebrew_n 2._o then_o also_o in_o those_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n they_o sprinkle_v blood_n to_o

in_o those_o time_n they_o do_v sprinkle_v man_n person_n for_o preservation_n from_o the_o destroy_a angel_n when_o the_o destroy_a angel_n come_v to_o destroy_v the_o egyptian_n the_o post_n of_o
