our_o place_n and_o our_o nation_n all_o these_o be_v miracle_n of_o mercy_n and_o both_o these_o sort_n both_o of_o judgement_n and_o mercy_n we_o allow_v to_o be_v miraculous_a because_o they_o be_v above_o the_o standard_n of_o god_n general_a government_n of_o the_o world_n and_o settlement_n of_o what_o we_o call_v nature_n in_o this_o present_a state_n of_o it_o and_o thus_o i_o have_v labour_v in_o this_o first_o and_o fundamental_a point_n to_o define_v the_o nature_n of_o miracle_n because_o it_o will_v give_v light_a all_o along_o the_o discourse_n and_o guide_v to_o the_o chief_a point_n viz._n that_o they_o a_o pertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o world_n to_o come_v chap._n iii_o give_v yet_o a_o more_o strict_a and_o exact_a description_n of_o miracle_n in_o five_o particular_n i_o find_v it_o necessary_a to_o come_v up_o yet_o close_o and_o near_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o scripture-miracle_n or_o its_o account_n of_o they_o and_o that_o so_o that_o i_o may_v show_v how_o close_o they_o lead_v up_o to_o that_o world_n to_o come_v and_o herein_o i_o shall_v observe_v most_o particular_o the_o word_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n use_v to_o express_v miracle_n by_o i_o will_v to_o this_o purpose_n insist_v on_o these_o five_o particular_n 1._o the_o first_o thing_n that_o speak_v miracle_n and_o that_o be_v indeed_o the_o most_o proper_a and_o essential_a description_n of_o miracle_n be_v that_o in_o miracle_n god_n act_v by_o a_o immediate_a hand_n and_o do_v not_o work_v by_o any_o second_o or_o subordinate_a cause_n whatever_o instrument_n conveyance_n or_o minister_n of_o his_o power_n he_o may_v use_v when_o he_o work_v perfect_o as_o the_o creator_n he_o be_v alone_o and_o there_o be_v no_o other_o with_o he_o in_o his_o work_n he_o show_v himself_o immediate_o by_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o stretch_v out_o arm_n if_o god_n bless_v physic_n and_o the_o sick_a man_n be_v recover_v this_o be_v indeed_o miracle_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o first_o spring_n god_n be_v at_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o m●ans_n for_o he_o be_v the_o first_o cause_n when_o a_o man_n by_o diligence_n in_o his_o call_v grow_v rich_a this_o man_n say_v be_v no_o miracle_n he_o be_v a_o diligent_a and_o a_o industrious_a laborious_a man_n and_o he_o have_v beside_o these_o and_o these_o opportunity_n but_o if_o we_o believe_v the_o scripture_n this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o the_o second_o cause_n but_o to_o the_o first_o and_o in_o that_o it_o be_v miracle_n for_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v rich_a and_o the_o lord_n make_v thou_o to_o grow_v r●ch_n as_o we_o read_v in_o moses_n and_o a_o man_n to_o who_o god_n give_v riches_n say_v solomon_n but_o yet_o the_o scripture_n itself_o do_v not_o call_v this_o miracle_n because_o a_o train_n of_o second_o cause_n wait_v upon_o the_o first_o and_o to_o a_o common_a eye_n hide_v it_o in_o miracle_n god_n do_v all_o and_o he_o work_v like_o himself_o sudden_o and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o leisure_n and_o slowness_n of_o the_o second_o cause_n he_o heal_v immediate_o he_o pour_v riches_n on_o solomon_n like_o the_o most_o high_a possessor_n of_o all_o he_o command_v and_o the_o effect_n stand_v up_o together_o in_o the_o same_o moment_n he_o command_v if_o a_o man_n have_v cataract_n on_o his_o eye_n and_o go_v to_o a_o skilful_a oculist_n and_o he_o couch_n they_o as_o we_o speak_v we_o do_v not_o call_v this_o miracle_n because_o a_o hand_n of_o natural_a cause_n wait_v upon_o god_n here_o for_o concurrence_n but_o when_o by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n man_n have_v their_o eye_n op●ned_v without_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n then_o every_o one_o agree_v it_o be_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o call_v it_o miracle_n i_o say_v therefore_o this_o be_v one_o thing_n in_o miracle_n and_o i_o beseech_v the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o it_o because_o there_o be_v such_o assurance_n in_o scripture_n god_n will_v come_v to_o do_v great_a thing_n immediate_o by_o his_o own_o hand_n he_o will_v do_v they_o as_o he_o say_v he_o will_v answer_v the_o idolatrous_a enquirer_n in_o ezekiel_n by_o himself_o by_o his_o own_o immediate_a power_n according_a to_o this_o we_o be_v instruct_v exod._n 7._o 5._o when_o i_o stretch_v out_o my_o hand_n say_v god_n upon_o egypt_n miracle_n be_v the_o stretch_v out_o of_o god_n hand_n and_o chap_n 8._o 19_o when_o the_o magician_n can_v not_o do_v what_o moses_n do_v they_o then_o say_v this_o be_v the_o finger_n of_o god_n here_o then_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o miracle_n it_o be_v god_n show_v his_o own_o finger_n the_o magician_n act_v by_o a_o power_n as_o we_o say_v behind_o the_o curtain_n they_o act_v by_o the_o devil_n but_o when_o aaron_n smite_v the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o it_o become_v louse_n then_o the_o magician_n themselves_o acknowledge_v this_o be_v the_o finger_n of_o god_n because_o they_o try_v to_o do_v so_o with_o their_o enchantment_n and_o can_v not_o this_o therefore_o plain_o declare_v miracle_n when_o it_o come_v to_o that_o that_o no_o angelical_a power_n can_v do_v it_o nor_o can_v he_o trust_v to_o do_v it_o as_o god_n commissioner_n then_o it_o be_v miracle_n then_o it_o be_v a_o power_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v which_o god_n have_v not_o put_v into_o subjection_n to_o angel_n either_o good_a or_o bad._n the_o magician_n act_v by_o the_o intervention_n and_o utmost_a power_n of_o bad_a angel_n do_v some_o thing_n as_o moses_n and_o aaron_n so_o long_o they_o do_v not_o own_o miracle_n but_o when_o they_o come_v to_o that_o they_o act_v by_o create_v power_n can_v not_o do_v nor_o be_v any_o way_n commission_v to_o do_v then_o they_o cry_v out_o the_o finger_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v very_o observable_a our_o lord_n make_v use_v of_o the_o very_a same_o word_n in_o argue_v the_o truth_n of_o that_o so_o great_a miracle_n of_o cast_v out_o that_o potent_a devil_n luke_n 11._o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o not_o as_o the_o magician_n by_o the_o power_n of_o belzebub_n or_o the_o devil_n as_o the_o magician_n do_v if_o i_o by_o the_o finger_n of_o god_n cast_v out_o devil_n say_v christ_n than_o no_o doubt_n the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v come_v upon_o you_o where_o be_v two_o thing_n most_o remarkable_a concern_v miracle_n 1._o that_o miracle_n be_v by_o the_o immediate_a power_n of_o god_n patrated_n or_o effect_v 2._o that_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a undoubted_a and_o inseparable_a connexion_n between_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n or_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o miracle_n or_o effect_n of_o the_o immediate_a divine_a power_n or_o finger_n which_o shall_v indeed_o bring_v it_o in_o all_o in_o it_o be_v high_a power_n and_o so_o be_v all_o that_o work_v for_o it_o there_o be_v therefore_o a_o peculiar_a word_n choose_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o express_v miracle_n by_o and_o it_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d
