from_o consider_v the_o person_n who_o christ_n jesus_n come_v to_o save_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o salvation_n which_o he_o propose_v and_o the_o method_n in_o which_o he_o have_v procure_v it_o if_o in_o do_v this_o i_o have_v lay_v down_o a_o true_a scheme_n of_o our_o holy_a profession_n as_o i_o be_o very_o persuade_v i_o have_v according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o the_o general_a sense_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n and_o if_o through_o this_o whole_a scheme_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v high_o worthy_a of_o god_n and_o extreme_o beneficial_a to_o his_o creature_n nay_o if_o according_a to_o this_o representation_n of_o christianity_n it_o not_o only_o infinite_o excel_v all_o other_o institution_n of_o religion_n but_o be_v such_o as_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o frame_v a_o idea_n of_o any_o institution_n comparable_a to_o it_o as_o i_o firm_o believe_v upon_o impartial_a consideration_n it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v it_o must_v then_o be_v grant_v that_o this_o be_v a_o faithful_a say_n and_o worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n that_o christ_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v

and_o have_v accustom_a themselves_o to_o think_v serious_o of_o matter_n of_o importance_n the_o external_a attestation_n which_o god_n have_v give_v to_o the_o gospel_n by_o prophecy_n miracle_n and_o a_o wonderful_a success_n in_o its_o propagation_n will_v tend_v where_o due_o observe_v not_o only_o far_a to_o confirm_v this_o intrinsic_a evidence_n but_o also_o to_o awaken_v and_o excite_v the_o mind_n of_o those_o who_o be_v not_o use_v to_o serious_a think_n or_o be_v strong_o prejudice_v against_o religion_n in_o general_n through_o the_o violence_n of_o their_o corrupt_a inclination_n but_o when_o all_o be_v do_v here_o we_o must_v fix_v be_v assure_v that_o as_o no_o revelation_n can_v be_v from_o god_n which_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o he_o so_o whatsoever_o be_v so_o high_o worthy_a of_o god_n as_o the_o christian_a revelation_n be_v must_v be_v credible_a upon_o its_o own_o account_n may_v we_o who_o profess_v to_o believe_v the_o gospel_n both_o on_o account_n of_o its_o intrinsic_a evidence_n and_o the_o external_a attestation_n it_o have_v have_v and_o to_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o excellent_a method_n therein_o propose_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o sinner_n prove_v to_o the_o world_n the_o reality_n and_o the_o steadfastness_n of_o this_o our_o faith_n by_o its_o influence_n upon_o our_o spirit_n and_o our_o life_n then_o
