knoweth the things of a man save the spirit of man even so the things of God knoweth no man but the spirit of God Now we have received not the spirit of the world but the spirit that is of God that we might know the things that are given us of God But the naturall man receiveth not the things of Gods spirit they are foolishnesse unto him neither can he know them because they are Spiritually discerned This wisdome is a mystery ver 7. and therefore it is not knowne by nature but by revelation from God When St. Peter had made that excellent confession of Jesus that he is Christ the Sonne of the Living God our Saviour said unto him Blessed art thou Simon Mat. 16.16.17 for flesh and bloud hath not revealed it unto thee but my Father So that all who are indued with this wisdome are Theodidactoi taught of God as our Saviour saith Joh. 6 44. No man can come unto me except the father draw him And this he proves out of the Prophets saying it is written they shall be all taught of God Every man therefore that hath heard and learned of the father commeth unto me As if he had said no man can come unto me except the father teach him for all that are taught of God and onely they come unto me and therefore no man can come unto me except the father draw him that is move him effectually for indeed Gods teaching is an effectuall working he not onely opens the eyes of the understanding but also convinceth the heart of the truth of his Doctrine and inclines us to embrace this wisdome So that a man may be learned in all the wisdome of the Egyptians in all the philosophie of the Graecians he may be as wise as Achitophell whose counsell was esteemed as the oracle of God and yet be ignorant of this wisdome as our Saviour saith Math. 11.25 I thank thee O father because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and hast revealed them unto babes Yea a man may be well learned in the Scriptures and yet ignorant of this wisdome the Scribes and Pharisees were doctors of the law and yet even of them the Apostle sayes which none of the Princes of this world knew In the second place hee charges them with an heinous and horrible murther they crucified the Lord of Glory where every circumstance in the text doth aggravate the murther 1. The person murthered is the Lord of Glory 2. The death inflicted on him was crucifixion the most shamefull and accursed death in the World 3. The persons who did this were they his owne people who of all others should not have done it even they crucified the Lord of Glory The person murthered is the Lord of Glory our blessed Saviour Jesus Christ Hee is the Lord as we confesse in our Creede by reason of the dominion which he hath over all and particularly over his church He is the Lord by right of creation For all things were made by him and without him was not any thing made that was made Ioh. 1.3 By him were all things created that are in heaven and that are in earth visible and invisible c. Col. 1.16 Hee is the Lord by right of inheritance for he is the heire of all things Heb. 1.2 Hee is the Lord by the right of donation for the father is brought in saying unto him I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession Plalm 2.8 So he saith Matth. 28.18 All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth Hee is the Lord by the right of redemption for he who redeemeth a captive becomes his Lord and Christ when we were captives hath redeemed us by giving himselfe a ransome for us wee were redeemed saith St. Peter not with silver or gold or corruptible things but with the precious bloud of Jesus as of a lambe undefiled Finally he is our Lord too by the right of conquest for after that hee had redeemed us by paying a ransome unto God for us Satan the Jailor would not let us goe but kept us fast bound in the fetters of sinne and therefore hee is falne to come with a mighty hand and outstretched arme and violently take us out of his gripes Hee is the stronger man mentioned in the gospell who hath overcome the strong man taken his armour from him Col. 2.15 and divided the spoyle He hath spoiled principalities and powers triumphing over them And as he is the Lord so the Lord of Glory that is a glorious Lord by an Hebraeisme He is called the King of Glory Plal. 24.7 Lift up your heads O ye gates and be ye lift up yee everlasting doores and the King of Glory shall come in And the God of Glory by St. Steven Act. 7.2 The God of Glory appeared to our father Abraham And here as also Iam. 2.1 He is called the Lord of Glory Glory properly signifies beauty praise honour and it is ordinarily used in scripture to expresse that Majesty and perfection of blisse which God injoyes from all eternity and which in some measure he communicates unto his blessed Angells and Saints in heaven Now well may our Saviour be called the Lord of Glory because he is the brightnesse of Gods Glory and the expresse image of his person Heb. 1.3 He did injoy Glory with the Father from all eternity as he sayes Ioh. 17.5 And now O father glorifie thou mee with thine owne selfe with the glory which I had with thee before the world was And againe he prayeth for his Disciples saying ver 24. Father I will that they whom thou hast given me be with me where I am that they may behold my glory And as he injoyed glory with the father from all eternity so after a short ecclipse of that glory here on earth and after he had overcome the sharpenesse of death he was received up into glory 1 Tim. 3.16 He is crowned with glory and honour Heb. 2.9 And he tells us that at the last day he shall come in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory Mat. 24.30.25.31 Then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory Finally he is called the Lord of glory because he is the author of glory unto others for saith the Apostle when Christ who is our life shall appeare then shall ye also appeare with him in glory Coloss 3.4 He gives unto his servants eternall life which in scripture is called glory a Kingdome of glory a crowne of glory an eternall weight of glory This is the person who was murthered and therefore the murther was most hainous For if it be a greater sinne for a man to murther his father than to kill a stranger to murther the King than to kill a fellow subject to murther an innocent person then to kill a malefactor Then how heinous a murder was it to kill him who was more than all these even
