the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o and_o none_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a of_o it_o but_o such_o as_o be_v in_o their_o lose_a condition_n 2_o cor._n 4._o 3_o 4_o 6._o but_o if_o our_o gospel_n be_v

glorious_a gospel_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n shall_v shine_v upon_o they_o for_o god_n who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o look_v you_o to_o it_o you_o that_o live_v in_o

scripture_n what_o a_o case_n you_o be_v in_o and_o to_o what_o company_n you_o belong_v for_o the_o present_a god_n be_v teach_v his_o people_n in_o these_o mystery_n it_o be_v write_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n and_o so_o they_o be_v though_o not_o to_o alike_o degree_n that_o which_o i_o do_v mean_a when_o i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o unknown_a freedom_n be_v in_o these_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o god_n people_n themselves_o do_v it_o know_v it_o in_o that_o full_a manner_n and_o measure_n as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v know_v sure_o there_o be_v more_o in_o it_o than_o they_o do_v understand_v even_o they_o who_o see_v and_o know_v most_o of_o it_o nay_o 2._o that_o which_o any_o of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n upon_o earth_n do_v know_v of_o it_o as_o yet_o be_v but_o little_a in_o comparison_n of_o what_o be_v in_o this_o freedom_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v say_v to_o know_v but_o in_o part_n 1_o cor._n 13._o now_o you_o know_v that_o but_o a_o part_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v very_o short_a of_o the_o whole_a they_o that_o have_v attain_v to_o the_o high_a degree_n of_o spiritual_a understanding_n have_v need_n pray_v that_o they_o may_v be_v carry_v further_a and_o further_a still_o as_o paul_n do_v for_o the_o ephesian_n cap._n 1._o 17_o 18._o and_o 3._o 18_o 19_o nay_o 3._o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n itself_o will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o take_v in_o all_o that_o concern_v the_o glory_n of_o this_o freedom_n though_o they_o shall_v know_v it_o there_o clear_o yet_o they_o can_v know_v it_o full_o it_o be_v that_o which_o be_v too_o great_a for_o any_o but_o god_n to_o comprehend_v just_a as_o it_o be_v he_o only_o know_v his_o own_o love_n and_o his_o own_o mercy_n to_o the_o utmost_a yet_o this_o shall_v be_v no_o diminution_n of_o the_o saint_n happiness_n that_o they_o can_v even_o there_o full_o reach_v the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o for_o they_o shall_v know_v as_o much_o of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o greature_n to_o know_v they_o shall_v be_v like_a bottle_n cast_v into_o the_o sea_n that_o though_o they_o can_v take_v in_o the_o sea_n yet_o they_o shall_v take_v in_o so_o much_o as_o shall_v make_v they_o so_o full_a that_o they_o can_v hold_v a_o drop_n more_o but_o if_o they_o can_v take_v in_o more_o there_o be_v more_o still_o to_o be_v take_v in_o so_o that_o indeed_o this_o be_v a_o unconceivable_a fredoom_v the_o saint_n do_v admire_v it_o and_o they_o will_v admire_v it_o for_o ever_o now_o our_o admire_v of_o thing_n do_v not_o only_o proceed_v from_o our_o be_v affect_v with_o they_o but_o also_o from_o hence_o that_o there_o be_v more_o in_o they_o than_o we_o can_v well_o dive_v into_o so_o we_o can_v go_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o this_o freedom_n nor_o ever_o shall_v for_o it_o have_v no_o bottom_n so_o that_o the_o truth_n be_v here_o we_o be_v all_o pose_v saint_n and_o angel_n be_v pose_v to_o conceive_v what_o this_o freedom_n come_v to_o you_o may_v go_v to_o some_o in_o the_o world_n that_o can_v scarch_v out_o deep_a mystery_n that_o can_v expound_v riddle_n but_o this_o be_v such_o a_o mystery_n and_o such_o a_o riddle_n as_o no_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n be_v able_a exact_o to_o unfold_v i_o may_v say_v of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v in_o rom._n 11._o 33._o o_o the_o depth_n etc._n etc._n other_o freedom_n you_o can_v fathom_n but_o this_o you_o can_v 3d_o property_n it_o be_v the_o most_o honourable_a freedom_n you_o know_v when_o god_n redeem_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n out_o of_o egypt_n he_o do_v it_o in_o a_o honourable_a way_n take_v it_o in_o these_o three_o thing_n 1._o he_o get_v honour_n to_o himself_o exod._n 14._o 17_o 18._o by_o this_o he_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v above_o all_o god_n and_o above_o all_o great_a one_o of_o the_o earth_n god_n shall_v never_o have_v do_v this_o work_n if_o the_o egyptian_n and_o all_o their_o idol_n can_v have_v hinder_v it_o you_o know_v what_o a_o fierce_a onset_n they_o make_v upon_o israel_n at_o the_o red-sea_n to_o bring_v they_o back_o again_o but_o instead_o of_o that_o they_o never_o go_v back_o again_o themselves_o the_o water_n cover_v their_o enemy_n there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o they_o leave_v what_o a_o name_n do_v the_o lord_n make_v himself_o at_o that_o time_n 2._o he_o honour_v his_o promise_n the_o child_n of_o israel_n have_v have_v many_o promise_n of_o deliverance_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o anguish_n of_o their_o spirit_n in_o their_o bondage_n they_o can_v not_o tell_v how_o to_o believe_v they_o call_v the_o faithfulness_n and_o truth_n of_o god_n into_o question_n as_o we_o be_v too_o ready_a to_o do_v when_o we_o be_v in_o great_a strait_n instead_o of_o trust_v in_o god_n firm_o as_o they_o shall_v have_v do_v when_o once_o they_o have_v a_o word_n from_o god_n what_o depth_n of_o distress_n soever_o they_o be_v in_o they_o do_v not_o rely_v up-god_n promise_n exod._n 6._o 6_o 7_o 8_o 9_o but_o when_o god_n deliver_v they_o he_o honour_v his_o promise_n for_o all_o that_o he_o show_v that_o he_o do_v remember_v it_o by_o the_o perform_n of_o it_o exod._n 12._o 41._o and_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o four_o hundred_o and_o thirty_o year_n even_o the_o selfsame_a day_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o all_o the_o host_n of_o the_o lord_n go_v out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n you_o must_v know_v that_o this_o place_n look_v back_o chief_o to_o the_o promise_n that_o god_n make_v to_o abraham_n that_o though_o his_o seed_n shall_v be_v afflict_v in_o egypt_n yet_o he_o will_v bring_v they_o out_o after_o such_o a_o time_n gen._n 15._o 13_o 14._o now_o here_o in_o this_o 12_o of_o exod._n you_o see_v how_o god_n honour_v his_o promise_n he_o keep_v his_o word_n to_o the_o very_a day_n obj._n but_o how_o do_v god_n honour_v his_o promise_n and_o how_o be_v they_o deliver_v the_o selfsame_a day_n when_o as_o in_o that_o place_n of_o genesis_n there_o be_v just_a four_o hundred_o year_n speak_v of_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o egypt_n and_o in_o the_o other_o of_o exodus_fw-la it_o be_v four_o hundred_o and_o thirty_o year_n it_o seem_v therefore_o that_o god_n fail_v of_o his_o promise_n thirty_o year_n ans_fw-fr no_o god_n forbid_v that_o we_o shall_v think_v so_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o one_o tittle_n of_o his_o word_n shall_v not_o perish_v but_o you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o may_v be_v two_o reason_n why_o the_o thirty_o year_n be_v not_o mention_v in_o the_o promise_n to_o abraham_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v not_o a_o unusual_a thing_n among_o we_o to_o swallow_v up_o a_o lesser_a number_n in_o a_o great_a as_o if_o a_o man_n ask_v you_o how_o old_a you_o be_v you_o say_v so_o many_o year_n and_o though_o there_o be_v some_o odd_a week_n or_o month_n you_o omit_v they_o put_v the_o great_a number_n for_o all_o so_o the_o thirty_o year_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o four_o hundred_o as_o the_o text_n in_o exodus_fw-la with_o which_o the_o other_o be_v to_o be_v compare_v do_v show_v 2._o i_o suppose_v the_o lord_n may_v of_o purpose_n conceal_v these_o thirty_o year_n though_o he_o do_v
