marvellous_a consideratition_n that_o subject_n have_v sin_v and_o the_o lord_n must_v be_v beat_v that_o servant_n have_v offend_v and_o the_o master_n must_v die_v that_o the_o guilty_a shall_v be_v

conquer_v the_o devil_n hell_n sin_n death_n and_o all_o the_o great_a enemy_n of_o our_o salvation_n that_o be_v too_o strong_a for_o man_n to_o battle_n with_o all_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v everlasting_a god_n how_o can_v he_o by_o temporal_a suffering_n have_v discharge_v we_o of_o eternal_a torment_n and_o how_o shall_v the_o merit_n of_o his_o suffering_n have_v reach_v to_o those_o that_o live_v long_o before_o &_o long_o after_o his_o death_n if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v infinite_a god_n how_o shall_v the_o father_n have_v accept_v so_o many_o sinner_n in_o he_o and_o he_o for_o so_o many_o sinner_n which_o he_o be_v angry_a withal_o and_o how_o shall_v he_o be_v present_a with_o his_o people_n throughout_o the_o world_n therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a he_o shall_v be_v

to_o make_v that_o acceptable_a and_o effectual_a which_o be_v suffer_v and_o do_v for_o us._n therefore_o this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n that_o god_n be_v manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n 1_o hereof_o come_v that_o near_a conjunction_n that_o be_v between_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n set_v forth_o in_o the_o scripture_n by_o many_o similitude_n he_o be_v call_v the_o head_n and_o we_o the_o body_n not_o 1._o col._n 1._o his_o natural_a body_n but_o his_o mystical_a body_n as_o all_o true_a christian_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n so_o every_o one_o be_v a_o member_n of_o his_o

15._o from_o who_o we_o receive_v spiritual_a juice_n and_o virtue_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n acceptable_a to_o god_n &_o profitable_a to_o man_n for_o as_o adam_n do_v not_o only_o make_v we_o

the_o faithful_a a_o choose_a generation_n a_o royal_a priesthood_n a_o holy_a nation_n a_o peculiar_a people_n 2._o 1._o pet._n 2._o 3_o hereof_o come_v that_o mutual_a exchange_n that_o be_v

adam_n be_v not_o a_o private_a but_o a_o public_a person_n in_o who_o the_o whole_a church_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v therefore_o in_o christ_n death_n and_o satisfaction_n in_o christ_n

of_o those_o thing_n by_o &_o with_o he_o this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n that_o god_n be_v manife_v in_o the_o flesh_n therefore_o he_o be_v call_v our_o saviour_n which_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o

to_o do_v so_o for_o shame_n but_o they_o that_o want_v religion_n and_o virtue_n can_v judge_v of_o the_o unseemelines_n &_o vanity_n of_o these_o thing_n who_o apparel_v let_v it_o not_o be_v
