of_o such_o weighty_a concernment_n that_o it_o deserve_v very_o serious_a and_o diligent_a inquisition_n there_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a and_o dark_a passage_n of_o st._n paul_n concern_v christ_n deliver_v up_o his_o kingdom_n and_o of_o his_o subjection_n to_o god_n in_o the_o exposition_n thereof_o many_o divine_n have_v great_o and_o dangerous_o err_v in_o dethrone_v christ_n as_o if_o

these_o word_n can_v possible_o be_v right_o understand_v but_o only_o by_o consider_v christ_n and_o his_o member_n joint_o as_o one_o full_a and_o whole_a christ_n for_o though_o the_o man_n

why_o may_v he_o not_o rather_o have_v say_v except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o flesh_n of_o god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o word_n st._n john_n say_v the_o word_n be_v make_v 14._o joh._n 1._o 14._o flesh_n and_o his_o blood_n be_v express_o call_v the_o blood_n of_o god_n by_o the_o great_a apostle_n feed_v the_o

hereby_o we_o perceive_v the_o love_n of_o god_n because_o he_o have_v 16._o 1_o john_n 3._o 16._o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o and_o his_o virgin_n mother_n be_v often_o call_v by_o the_o father_n ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d the_o parent_n or_o mother_n of_o god_n 1._o to_o this_o we_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n consider_v only_o and_o single_o as_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o his_o pure_a godhead_n and_o only_o as_o god_n the_o word_n and_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n only_o and_o without_o incarnation_n can_v not_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o if_o he_o have_v continue_v so_o as_o to_o be_v only_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v from_o eternity_n and_o have_v never_o take_v our_o human_a nature_n upon_o he_o so_o as_o to_o be_v thereby_o real_o the_o son_n of_o man_n he_o can_v not_o be_v the_o christ_n neither_o can_v any_o obligation_n or_o engagement_n have_v be_v upon_o he_o to_o perform_v the_o law_n which_o law_n be_v impose_v only_o upon_o mankind_n neither_o can_v he_o have_v redeem_v we_o because_o he_o can_v not_o die_v be_v not_o mortal_a otherwise_o then_o by_o assume_v our_o mortal_a nature_n into_o personal_a union_n with_o his_o immortal_a and_o divine_a nature_n therefore_o in_o order_n to_o the_o office_n of_o a_o redeemer_n he_o must_v become_v a_o man_n and_o his_o flesh_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man._n 2._o second_o we_o say_v that_o although_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v real_o assume_v a_o body_n and_o
out_o of_o the_o man_n and_o not_o make_v of_o another_o piece_n of_o earth_n for_o the_o woman_n can_v not_o have_v be_v in_o union_n with_o christ_n except_o she_o have_v be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o man_n as_o christ_n and_o all_o mankind_n be_v nor_o can_v she_o or_o we_o have_v be_v capable_a of_o redemption_n by_o christ_n without_o this_o union_n with_o christ_n in_o the_o first_o man._n hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v member_n of_o his_o body_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o of_o his_o 32_o eph._n 5._o 30_o 31_o 32_o bone_n the_o like_a he_o say_v of_o christ_n and_o his_o whole_a church_n they_o two_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n but_o i_o speak_v concern_v christ_n and_o his_o church_n this_o be_v say_v because_o all_o man_n and_o woman_n with_o
