cause_n of_o salvation_n 3._o salvation_n both_o in_o the_o beginning_n of_o it_o here_o in_o holiness_n and_o spiritual_a comfort_n and_o in_o the_o perfection_n of_o it_o hereafter_o which_o be_v the_o effect_n both_o of_o election_n and_o redemption_n so_o that_o that_o though_o salvation_n be_v pay_v for_o yet_o god_n send_v of_o his_o son_n to_o die_v for_o we_o be_v a_o mere_a fruit_n of_o elect_a grace_n and_o never_o pay_v for_o and_o there_o be_v two_o reason_n of_o this_o 1_o this_o be_v too_o great_a a_o mercy_n to_o be_v pay_v for_o our_o salvation_n be_v a_o exceed_a great_a mercy_n but_o not_o too_o great_a to_o be_v purchase_v but_o this_o be_v a_o mediator_n can_v not_o be_v purchase_v this_o mercy_n be_v not_o too_o great_a to_o be_v give_v but_o it_o be_v too_o great_a to_o be_v purchase_v we_o may_v more_o easy_o have_v purchase_v our_o redemption_n than_o our_o redeemer_n neither_o do_v christ_n purchase_v this_o mercy_n for_o we_o christ_n do_v not_o buy_v his_o own_o office_n what_o price_n can_v be_v lay_v down_o to_o satisfy_v god_n for_o such_o a_o unspeakable_a gift_n 2._o this_o mercy_n may_v be_v bestow_v upon_o we_o without_o be_v purchase_v god_n have_v so_o bind_v himself_o by_o his_o law_n that_o man_n can_v not_o be_v save_v without_o satisfuction_n that_o mercy_n must_v be_v purchase_v but_o god_n have_v not_o so_o bind_v himself_o by_o his_o law_n but_o that_o it_o be_v free_a for_o he_o to_o send_v his_o son_n to_o die_v without_o receive_v any_o satisfaction_n for_o this_o mercy_n god_n have_v tie_v his_o own_o hand_n so_o that_o sinner_n can_v not_o be_v save_v without_o satisfaction_n a_o his_o faithfulness_n bind_v he_o to_o stand_v upon_o that_o but_o god_n be_v at_o liberty_n to_o send_v a_o mediator_n if_o he_o please_v his_o own_o gracious_a nature_n be_v such_o that_o he_o can_v do_v it_o without_o any_o purchase_n and_o he_o have_v not_o restrain_v himself_o by_o his_o word_n 5._o it_o be_v great_a love_n for_o god_n to_o send_v his_o son_n to_o die_v for_o man_n salvation_n when_o he_o will_v have_v be_v no_o loose_a if_o man_n have_v not_o be_v save_v if_o the_o case_n have_v be_v so_o circumstance_v that_o god_n will_v have_v suffer_v much_o loss_n if_o man_n have_v fail_v of_o salvation_n there_o have_v then_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o necessity_n lay_v upon_o god_n to_o have_v send_v his_o son_n to_o die_v in_o order_n to_o it_o but_o god_n bestow_v this_o mercy_n upon_o we_o when_o it_o will_v have_v be_v no_o less_o unto_o he_o if_o we_o have_v perish_v this_o may_v be_v clear_v up_o by_o these_o consideration_n 1._o this_o mercy_n of_o give_v christ_n to_o die_v for_o we_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n wherein_o god_n lave_v out_o himself_o for_o our_o salvation_n when_o a_o person_n have_v lay_v out_o himself_o much_o and_o be_v at_o great_a expense_n for_o the_o accomplish_n of_o a_o design_n it_o be_v a_o disappointment_n to_o fail_v of_o it_o and_o his_o expense_n be_v thereby_o many_o time_n lose_v but_o god_n have_v not_o be_v before_o this_o at_o any_o expense_n for_o man_n salvation_n this_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n wherein_o god_n lay_v out_o himself_o for_o our_o salvation_n with_o respect_n to_o we_o who_o live_v in_o these_o latter_a day_n the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v actual_o before_o any_o other_o endeavour_n for_o our_o salvation_n and_o with_o respect_n to_o those_o elect_n that_o live_v before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n his_o death_n be_v virtual_o before_o any_o other_o expense_n for_o their_o salvation_n rev_n 3.8_o 2._o if_o god_n have_v not_o send_v his_o son_n to_o die_v yet_o he_o need_v not_o to_o have_v lose_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o lay_v out_o of_o his_o wisdom_n power_n and_o goodness_n in_o man_n creation_n what_o he_o have_v expend_v that_o way_n will_v not_o have_v be_v lose_v but_o he_o will_v have_v recover_v his_o glory_n in_o man_n ruin_n prov._n 16.4_o 3_o god_n can_v have_v find_v other_o way_n to_o have_v glorify_v his_o grace_n though_o god_n be_v under_o no_o necessity_n of_o have_v any_o declarative_a glory_n neither_o do_v he_o glorify_v himself_o ad_fw-la ultimum_fw-la virium_fw-la to_o the_o utmost_a of_o his_o power_n yet_o it_o do_v please_v he_o to_o glorify_v his_o attribute_n and_o he_o may_v have_v honour_v his_o mercy_n in_o the_o salvation_n of_o fall_v angel_n they_o be_v capable_a of_o salvation_n and_o it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o wonderful_a exalt_v of_o god_n grace_n to_o have_v save_v they_o 2._o the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v be_v the_o force_n of_o the_o apostle_n consequence_n he_o argue_v from_o god_n love_n in_o send_v christ_n to_o die_v for_o we_o the_o certain_a salvation_n of_o those_o that_o be_v reconcile_v by_o his_o death_n and_o there_o be_v no_o scruple_n to_o be_v make_v of_o their_o salvation_n though_o they_o have_v many_o enemy_n that_o seek_v their_o ruin_n though_o they_o have_v much_o sin_n remain_v in_o they_o and_o have_v be_v many_o way_n fail_v of_o walk_v up_o to_o that_o exactness_n which_o god_n require_v all_o those_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o and_o be_v first_o or_o last_o instruct_v in_o his_o death_n shall_v be_v save_v by_o he_o 1._o if_o god_n have_v so_o great_a love_n as_o to_o send_v his_o son_n to_o bear_v such_o great_a suffering_n to_o purchase_v our_o salvation_n then_o he_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o do_v what_o ever_o else_o be_v necessary_a for_o our_o salvation_n he_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o do_v what_o be_v else_o to_o be_v do_v for_o the_o complete_n of_o our_o salvation_n he_o that_o have_v do_v the_o great_a will_v do_v the_o less_o if_o love_n overcome_v the_o difficulty_n that_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o our_o redemption_n it_o will_v also_o overcome_v whatever_o difficulty_n be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o application_n of_o redemption_n it_o be_v unreasonable_a to_o think_v that_o god_n shall_v have_v love_n enough_o to_o send_v his_o son_n to_o do_v that_o which_o can_v be_v do_v without_o pain_n and_o sorrow_n and_o death_n and_o not_o have_v love_n enough_o to_o do_v that_o which_o he_o can_v do_v with_o the_o speak_n of_o a_o word_n the_o great_a difficulty_n in_o the_o way_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v the_o purchase_n of_o it_o there_o be_v wrath_n to_o be_v bear_v a_o curse_n to_o be_v endure_v but_o love_v break_v through_o that_o difficulty_n the_o rest_n that_o remain_v be_v easy_a to_o god_n the_o mortification_n of_o sin_n the_o quicken_a of_o grace_n the_o repel_v of_o temptation_n and_o give_v the_o actual_a possession_n of_o glory_n may_v be_v effect_v by_o god_n without_o any_o difficulty_n and_o therefore_o he_o will_v stick_v at_o that_o rom._n 9.32_o if_o god_n spare_v not_o his_o emn_a son_n but_o deliver_v he_o up_o for_o we_o all_o how_o shall_v he_o not_o with_o he_o also_o free_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n do_v but_o by_o little_a and_o little_o carry_v on_o in_o we_o the_o work_n of_o sanctification_n but_o the_o reason_n of_o that_o be_v not_o that_o it_o be_v any_o way_n difficult_a unto_o he_o but_o because_o that_o suit_v the_o design_n that_o be_v upon_o his_o heart_n neither_o be_v it_o from_o any_o unwillingness_n to_o help_v we_o but_o because_o his_o design_n be_v to_o carry_v on_o the_o work_n of_o sanctification_n so_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v continual_o need_v of_o justification_n we_o find_v it_o difficult_a to_o do_v our_o part_n in_o order_n to_o our_o salvation_n but_o it_o be_v not_o difficult_a to_o god_n to_o do_v his_o part_n god_n carry_v on_o the_o work_n without_o difficulty_n yet_o so_o that_o we_o shall_v find_v difficulty_n as_o a_o parent_n with_o ease_n help_v the_o child_n to_o go_v yet_o so_o that_o the_o child_n

grace_n what_o ever_o stand_v as_o a_o impediment_n in_o the_o way_n of_o our_o salvation_n may_v be_v remove_v by_o god_n without_o any_o trouble_n god_n put_v forth_o thousand_o of_o act_n of_o

to_o be_v daily_o carry_v on_o the_o work_n of_o our_o salvation_n the_o opposition_n that_o be_v make_v to_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o omnipotency_n isai_n 40.28_o the_o creator_n of_o the_o end_n
