be_v not_o altogether_o clear_a among_o all_o sort_n of_o expositor_n some_o refer_v it_o unto_o the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n and_o some_o refer_v it_o unto_o the_o second_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o word_n at_o the_o first_o hear_n and_o the_o propriety_n of_o the_o expression_n seem_v to_o incline_v very_o much_o and_o to_o carry_v our_o mind_n to_o conceive_v that_o only_o the_o second_o

that_o however_o the_o second_o come_v of_o christ_n be_v not_o necessary_o to_o be_v exclude_v yet_o the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n must_v needs_o be_v primary_o intend_v in_o malachi_n 3._o v._o 2_o 3._o we_o find_v the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n speak_v of_o without_o all_o peradventure_o and_o yet_o concern_v that_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n we_o have_v there_o these_o expression_n who_o may_v abide_v the_o day_n of_o his_o come_n and_o who_o shall_v stand_v when_o he_o appear_v for_o he_o be_v like_o a_o refiner_n fire_n and_o fuller_n soap_n and_o he_o shall_v sit_v as_o a_o

offering_n in_o righteousness_n there_o you_o see_v a_o come_n of_o christ_n which_o can_v hardly_o be_v endure_v by_o those_o that_o serve_v in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n which_o be_v yet_o but_o to_o prepare_v they_o for_o a_o way_n of_o more_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v understand_v of_o a_o first_o come_v for_o the_o second_o come_v put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o kind_n of_o service_n not_o only_o according_a to_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o likewise_o according_a to_o the_o gospel_n and_o if_o this_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n be_v look_v upon_o as_o so_o dreadful_a and_o terrible_a a_o day_n that_o the_o prophet_n bring_v it_o in_o in_o a_o way_n of_o question_n and_o admiration_n who_o shall_v abide_v the_o day_n of_o his_o come_n who_o may_v stand_v when_o he_o appear_v what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o the_o second_o in_o the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n as_o john_n baptist_n tell_v we_o who_o be_v this_o same_o elijah_n here_o prophesy_v of_o the_o axe_n be_v lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n so_o you_o have_v it_o in_o the_o three_o of_o matthew_n v._n 11._o and_o every_o tree_n that_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n and_o when_o the_o pharisee_n resort_v to_o he_o oh_o generation_n of_o viper_n say_v he_o who_o have_v forewarn_v you_o to_o fly_v from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v have_v not_o you_o come_v and_o submit_v to_o this_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o make_v profession_n of_o repentance_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v wrath_n of_o god_n at_o hand_n ready_a to_o seize_v upon_o you_o therefore_o sure_o the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n be_v a_o dreadful_a day_n in_o regard_n of_o threaten_v at_o least_o though_o not_o for_o execution_n the_o acceptable_a year_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o day_n of_o vengeance_n of_o our_o god_n go_v so_o together_o in_o relation_n to_o several_a sort_n god_n humble_a penitent_a people_n be_v on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o the_o impenitent_a and_o unbelieved_a people_n be_v on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n we_o hear_v sometime_o of_o the_o mercy_n of_o his_o come_n and_o sometime_o of_o the_o judgement_n there_o be_v therefore_o no_o need_n why_o we_o shall_v understand_v these_o word_n restrictive_o and_o sole_o of_o the_o second_o come_v of_o christ_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o phrase_n and_o of_o the_o thing_n itself_o will_v very_o well_o bear_v we_o out_o to_o understand_v it_o of_o his_o first_o come_v also_o but_o the_o great_a thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o eye_n in_o this_o same_o expression_n be_v that_o before_o such_o time_n as_o god_n come_v in_o a_o way_n of_o judgement_n he_o will_v offer_v term_n of_o mercy_n he_o will_v as_o much_o as_o wisdom_n or_o mercy_n and_o justice_n temper_v together_o do_v require_v prevent_v his_o own_o judgement_n there_o shall_v one_o come_v a_o prophet_n a_o messenger_n a_o man_n of_o god_n which_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o win_v and_o gain_v the_o jew_n to_o god_n that_o the_o dreadfulness_n of_o the_o day_n may_v not_o befall_v they_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v exceed_o for_o the_o amplify_a of_o god_n mercy_n in_o this_o promise_n that_o however_o in_o justice_n he_o may_v surprise_v they_o unaware_o yet_o nevertheless_o as_o he_o himself_o make_v it_o a_o law_n among_o his_o own_o people_n that_o before_o they_o besiege_v a_o place_n they_o shall_v send_v offer_n and_o term_n of_o peace_n so_o he_o himself_o intend_v 20._o
