of_o death_n this_o will_v be_v clear_a if_o we_o consider_v these_o thing_n 1._o the_o person_n that_o suffer_v he_o be_v not_o a_o ordinary_a nay_o nor_o a_o mere_a man_n but_o god-man_n as_o be_v

creature_n inability_n to_o bear_v the_o wrath_n that_o sin_n deserve_v and_o hence_o arise_v not_o only_o a_o sinless_a horror_n which_o be_v natural_a but_o a_o sinful_a desperation_n 2._o add_v to_o this_o inability_n of_o the_o creature_n the_o enmity_n thereof_o whereby_o it_o come_v to_o thwart_v with_o and_o contradict_v the_o will_n of_o god_n hence_o the_o desperation_n not_o only_o arise_v but_o be_v increase_v now_o our_o lord_n jesus_n not_o be_v simple_o a_o creature_n or_o a_o man_n but_o god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o person_n he_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v the_o sorrow_n and_o wrath_n due_a to_o the_o elect_a for_o their_o sin_n and_o and_o there_o be_v no_o quarrel_n nor_o ground_n of_o any_o quarrel_n betwixt_o god_n and_o he_o on_o his_o own_o account_n though_o he_o

accidental_o due_a to_o sin_n be_v the_o eternal_a duration_n of_o wrath_n or_o of_o the_o curse_n because_o the_o sinner_n be_v a_o mere_a creature_n can_v at_o one_o shake_v meet_v with_o the_o

of_o that_o which_o sin_n deserve_v to_o wit_n death_n and_o the_o curse_n to_o meet_v with_o and_o do_v actual_o meet_v with_o they_o as_o the_o hide_v of_o his_o father_n face_n and_o the_o

soon_o we_o shall_v only_o add_v a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o reason_n for_o clear_v and_o confirm_v the_o doctrine_n and_o for_o proof_n of_o it_o these_o three_o thing_n concur_v 1._o that_o sin_n

undertake_v that_o same_o very_a debt_n that_o be_v due_a by_o the_o elect._n and_o 3._o that_o it_o be_v god_n design_n not_o to_o pass_v one_o of_o their_o sin_n without_o satisfaction_n make_v to_o justice_n but_o to_o put_v at_o the_o cautioner_n for_o they_o all_o for_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o riches_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n when_o the_o sinner_n be_v

1_o hereby_o we_o may_v know_v what_o a_o evil_a and_o bitter_a thing_n sin_n be_v that_o have_v such_o effect_n will_v god_n we_o can_v once_o prevail_v this_o far_o with_o you_o as_o to_o make_v

the_o way_n and_o tract_n of_o grace_n to_o wit_n how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o our_o lord_n who_o be_v innocent_a and_o without_o sin_n be_v so_o bruise_v and_o put_v to_o grief_n he_o come_v to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n and_o sist_v himself_o in_o our_o room_n as_o our_o cautioner_n as_o a_o sin-offering_a for_o we_o it_o will_v doubtless_o gnash_v many_o question_n and_o doubt_n that_o arise_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o believer_n if_o it_o be_v well_o understand_v they_o may_v say_v we_o shall_v have_v be_v in_o such_o and_o such_o a_o sad_a

when_o they_o know_v not_o what_o they_o be_v say_v as_o we_o hint_v at_o before_o some_o pray_v for_o strength_n from_o he_o for_o duty_n that_o they_o may_v do_v for_o themselves_o not_o consider_v

how_o to_o take_v he_o up_o when_o the_o soul_n honest_o aim_v to_o partake_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o suffering_n 2_o for_o clear_v this_o a_o little_a further_o we_o will_v know_v that_o
