understand_v in_o the_o complete_a sense_n of_o the_o angel_n word_n beforementioned_a so_o may_v it_o be_v in_o divers_a other_o text_n as_o in_o eph._n 2.5_o 8._o act_n 2.40_o according_o the_o

apostle_n will_v be_v that_o christian_n shall_v use_v all_o possible_a diligence_n and_o ca●_n to_o rescue_v themselves_o from_o the_o dominion_n and_o pollution_n of_o sin_n by_o a_o thorough_a reformation_n of_o their_o life_n by_o the_o mortification_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o perfect_a holiness_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v be_v secure_v from_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o partake_v of_o this_o double_a salvation_n this_o sure_a be_v the_o compleat_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n notwithstanding_o because_o the_o ordinary_a receive_v sense_n of_o this_o word_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v refer_v to_o the_o deliverance_n of_o man_n from_o the_o final_a punishment_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v i_o shall_v agree_v that_o to_o be_v the_o principal_a meaning_n of_o it_o in_o this_o place_n salvation_n in_o the_o style_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n do_v ordinary_o signify_v no_o more_o than_o deliverance_n from_o temporal_a evil_n whereto_o man_n be_v liable_a in_o this_o world_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n it_o have_v a_o high_a signification_n be_v there_o take_v for_o redemption_n or_o deliverance_n from_o the_o peril_n of_o everlasting_a destruction_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n in_o hell_n 1.10_o 1_o thess_n 1.10_o from_o eternal_a damnation_n from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v from_o the_o second_o death_n the_o vengeance_n of_o eternal_a fire_n in_o the_o lake_n that_o burn_v with_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n from_o the_o matter_n and_o special_o from_o the_o author_n of_o it_o call_v the_o great_a salvation_n 2.3_o heb._n 2.3_o and_o from_o the_o duration_n of_o it_o the_o eternal_a salvation_n 5.9_o heb._n 5.9_o and_o from_o the_o prime_a subject_n of_o it_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n 1.9_o 1_o pet._n 1.9_o this_o be_v the_o ordinary_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n salvation_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o life_n to_o come_v otherwise_o express_v by_o the_o term_n of_o redemption_n remission_n of_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o word_n salvation_n not_o a_o bare_a deliverance_n from_o punishment_n but_o by_o ampliation_n and_o analogy_n of_o scripture_n the_o same_o word_n comprehend_v also_o all_o that_o happiness_n and_o blessedness_n which_o the_o gospel_n promise_v to_o they_o that_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o which_o be_v usual_o express_v by_o eternal_a life_n the_o full_a importance_n of_o the_o word_n salvation_n comprehend_v

of_o 2_o pet._n 1.4_o now_o concern_v both_o these_o thing_n i_o shall_v only_o add_v two_o consideration_n 1._o that_o both_o the_o punishment_n threaten_v and_o the_o happiness_n promise_v be_v express_v in_o holy_a scripture_n by_o the_o high_a term_n that_o can_v have_v be_v use_v the_o misery_n from_o which_o this_o salvation_n deliver_v we_o be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o most_o formidable_a term_n that_o can_v be_v sound_v to_o mortal_a ear_n such_o be_v those_o of_o death_n destruction_n everlasting_a unquenchable_a fire_n a_o lake_n that_o burn_v with_o fire_n and_o

darkness_n and_o the_o worm_n that_o never_o die_v etc._n etc._n what_o word_n can_v signify_v any_o thing_n more_o formidable_a than_o these_o do_v on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o happiness_n of_o they_o that_o shall_v be_v save_v be_v likewise_o word_v as_o high_a as_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o the_o term_n of_o everlasting_a life_n eternal_a joy_n blessedness_n see_v of_o god_n be_v and_o reign_v with_o christ_n in_o heaven_n a_o kingdom_n a_o crown_n of_o glory_n a_o far_o more_o exceed_a eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n a_o incorruptible_a inheritance_n a_o treasure_n a_o paradise_n a_o feast_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v certain_a there_o be_v no_o word_n which_o can_v signify_v any_o thing_n more_o valuable_a than_o those_o do_v which_o scripture_n use_v in_o great_a variety_n to_o set_v forth_o that_o happiness_n by_o let_v this_o be_v the_o first_o consideration_n the_o second_o be_v this_o that_o the_o infallible_a truth_n and_o simplicity_n of_o god_n word_n

of_o these_o expression_n be_v figurative_a do_v import_v something_o different_a from_o the_o common_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n and_o that_o therefore_o a_o perfect_a and_o distinct_a notion_n or_o understanding_n of_o the_o particular_a condition_n thereby_o express_v can_v be_v collect_v or_o comprehend_v from_o they_o yet_o that_o the_o reality_n of_o the_o thing_n thereby_o signify_v be_v at_o least_o equal_a to_o that_o which_o any_o or_o all_o those_o word_n can_v represent_v to_o our_o present_a understanding_n i._n e._n the_o misery_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o happiness_n of_o the_o other_o state_n must_v needs_o be_v as_o great_a as_o those_o expression_n by_o which_o they_o be_v describe_v can_v reasonable_o signify_v thus_o much_o for_o the_o end_n or_o object_n salvation_n and_o what_o that_o mean_n which_o i_o desire_v may_v be_v remember_v and_o consider_v as_o a_o most_o powerful_a motive_n to_o the_o act_n which_o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o be_v to_o speak_v of_o we_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o end_n or_o design_n propose_v in_o the_o text_n that_o be_v our_o own_o salvation_n which_o by_o the_o precedent_a discourse_n be_v conclude_v to_o signify_v beside_o deliverance_n from_o extremity_n of_o misery_n the_o utmost_a of_o happiness_n which_o a_o man_n be_v capable_a of_o and_o consequent_o to_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a and_o
