for_o these_o reason_n first_o it_o be_v no_o way_n necessary_a so_o to_o understand_v it_o because_o name_n be_v not_o general_o or_o for_o the_o most_o part_n so_o take_v in_o scripture_n but_o in_o

the_o text_n so_o to_o understand_v it_o my_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o the_o subject_a name_n in_o the_o text_n must_v have_v of_o necessity_n a_o correspondent_a relation_n to_o christ_n advance_a name_n otherwise_o the_o sense_n can_v be_v logical_a if_o then_o the_o high_a advance_a name_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o text_n be_v a_o proper_a name_n it_o will_v follow_v necessary_o that_o all_o the_o subject_a name_n must_v be_v proper_a name_n also_o yea_o themselves_o refer_v the_o name_n jesus_n to_o divine_a name_n prefer_v it_o before_o the_o title_n christ_n son_n of_o

great_a name_n than_o the_o name_n christ_n jehovah_n and_o so_o consequent_o above_o the_o name_n father_n or_o holy_a ghost_n above_o the_o name_n of_o man_n as_o john_n thomas_n henry_n and_o so_o above_o the_o name_n of_o all_o creature_n and_o thing_n which_o will_v make_v a_o most_o absurd_a sense_n which_o yet_o can_v be_v avoid_v upon_o these_o man_n ground_n again_o see_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o all_o the_o subject_a name_n in_o the_o text_n must_v bow_v to_o the_o name_n above_o every_o name_n if_o the_o say_a name_n be_v understand_v of_o a_o proper_a name_n they_o not_o

william_n yea_o divine_a title_n as_o lord_n christ_n jehovah_n must_v bow_v to_o the_o name_n jesus_n and_o how_o senseless_a will_v this_o be_v see_v then_o that_o the_o name_n subject_v to_o the_o

all_o be_v a_o proper_a name_n for_o then_o the_o sense_n will_v be_v this_o the_o name_n jesus_n have_v dominion_n over_o every_o thing_n and_o creature_n and_o every_o thing_n and_o creature_n most_o bow_v knee_n to_o the_o name_n jesus_n which_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a last_o see_v the_o name_n subject_v to_o the_o name_n above_o every_o name_n be_v mean_v the_o power_n and_o virtue_n of_o thing_n and_o creature_n they_o except_v not_o divine_a name_n they_o must_v understand_v it_o also_o of_o the_o power_n of_o god_n than_o the_o sense_n will_v be_v this_o the_o name_n jesus_n be_v above_o god_n and_o that_o god_n himself_o must_v bow_v knee_n to_o the_o name_n jesus_n which_o sense_n will_v be_v horrid_a and_o blasphemous_a second_o if_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o

we_o must_v bow_v rather_o at_o the_o name_n jesus_n than_o christ_n i_o answer_v i_o have_v prove_v already_o that_o jesus_n signify_v the_o office_n of_o our_o saviour_n as_o well_o as_o christ_n though_o more_o summary_o and_o i_o affirm_v again_o that_o the_o name_n christ_n do_v everywhere_o denote_v christ_n person_n as_o well_o as_o the_o name_n jesus_n and_o if_o this_o distinction_n

he_o bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o make_v know_v unto_o we_o the_o father_n therefore_o this_o reason_n be_v without_o ground_n and_o without_o any_o light_n from_o scripture_n the_o only_a consequent_a that_o the_o scripture_n give_v signification_n of_o upon_o this_o ground_n be_v this_o because_o christ_n bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o reveal_v to_o we_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o father_n therefore_o we_o must_v pray_v to_o the_o father_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o do_v not_o say_v that_o therefore_o we_o must_v bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n and_o upon_o this_o their_o ground_n it_o may_v be_v as_o well_o infer_v that_o we_o must_v pray_v to_o the_o father_n by_o mention_v of_o the_o name_n jesus_n only_o as_o bow_v to_o the_o father_n at_o the_o
