bring_v we_o to_o heaven_n by_o way_n of_o love_n and_o enticement_n what_o great_a reward_n can_v there_o be_v think_v of_o than_o those_o that_o christ_n lead_v we_o by_o and_o draw_v we_o to_o

have_v promise_v not_o to_o quench_v the_o smoke_a flax_n and_o break_v the_o bruise_a reed_n undoubted_o he_o will_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o honour_n to_o be_v under_o the_o government_n of_o christ_n so_o rational_o and_o sweet_o he_o draw_v we_o with_o the_o cord_n of_o a_o man_n it_o be_v the_o government_n of_o a_o husband_n and_o of_o a_o wise_a husband_n i_o do_v but_o give_v a_o

we_o come_v sweet_o under_o christ_n government_n we_o need_v fear_v nothing_o he_o that_o fear_v christ_n all_o thing_n fear_v he_o since_o christ_n have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o the_o

security_n to_o be_v under_o he_o that_o govern_v all_o thing_n for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n he_o say_v john_n 17._o thou_o have_v give_v i_o power_n over_o all_o flesh_n christ_n have_v all_o power_n give_v to_o he_o in_o relation_n to_o his_o church_n therefore_o he_o have_v power_n over_o the_o devil_n over_o hell_n and_o over_o all_o wicked_a man_n and_o all_o monarch_n and_o

to_o christ_n they_o do_v but_o his_o work_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o great_a security_n and_o we_o need_v to_o fear_v none_o if_o we_o be_v under_o christ._n again_o to_o go_v on_o as_o it_o be_v

and_o that_o do_v supply_v all_o other_o thing_n whatsoever_o even_o as_o in_o heaven_n god_n shall_v be_v all_o in_o all_o that_o be_v he_o shall_v be_v so_o immediate_o to_o we_o to_o supply_v all_o as_o we_o shall_v neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v nor_o sleep_n nor_o have_v magistrate_n nor_o minister_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n will_v be_v all_o in_o all_o so_o it_o be_v with_o this_o

refresh_v this_o be_v not_o that_o life_n that_o christ_n special_o aim_v at_o when_o he_o come_v to_o die_v but_o that_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a life_n that_o he_o live_v after_o the_o

follow_v in_o these_o word_n that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n both_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o of_o the_o live_n the_o ground_n have_v three_o branch_n death_n resurrection_n and_o revive_v how_o all_o these_o do_v flow_v and_o give_v strength_n to_o this_o inference_n i_o will_v touch_v in_o the_o particular_n first_o than_o christ_n die_v that_o he_o may_v be_v lord_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o of_o the_o live_n christ_n die_v 1_o pet._n 3._o to_o offer_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o redeem_v we_o by_o his_o precious_a blood_n we_o be_v not_o redeem_v with_o gold_n or_o silver_n but_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n he_o can_v not_o be_v our_o lord_n till_o he_o have_v buy_v we_o now_o his_o death_n be_v the_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n i_o say_v redemption_n not_o emption_n a_o thing_n may_v be_v buy_v that_o be_v never_o sell_v away_o before_o now_o we_o be_v sell_v to_o satan_n and_o under_o a_o contrary_a government_n now_o christ_n satisfy_v divine_a justice_n redeem_v we_o he_o buy_v we_o again_o we_o have_v subject_v ourselves_o to_o the_o devil_n and_o put_v ourselves_o under_o his_o regiment_n till_o we_o be_v ransom_v by_o christ_n now_o christ_n shall_v have_v no_o right_n to_o we_o till_o the_o price_n be_v pay_v to_o divine_a justice_n for_o mercy_n must_v have_v justice_n satisfy_v the_o attribute_n of_o god_n must_v not_o fight_v one_o against_o another_o christ_n therefore_o be_v lord_n of_o we_o because_o by_o death_n he_o give_v full_a content_n to_o divine_a justice_n so_o that_o now_o notwithstanding_o justice_n yet_o we_o be_v christ_n and_o be_v save_v nay_o now_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n help_v we_o the_o most_o terrible_a attribute_n justice_n be_v a_o ground_n of_o comfort_n for_o it_o stand_v not_o with_o justice_n to_o have_v the_o same_o debt_n pay_v twice_o for_o god_n be_v just_a and_o faithful_a say_v the_o apostle_n so_o than_o you_o see_v there_o be_v a_o ground_n from_o death_n why_o we_o be_v the_o lord_n we_o be_v christ_n because_o we_o cost_v he_o dear_a he_o have_v pay_v a_o price_n for_o we_o that_o be_v worth_a more_o than_o the_o whole_a world_n now_o god_n show_v his_o love_n in_o nothing_o more_o than_o in_o this_o that_o he_o part_v with_o that_o that_o be_v next_o himself_o the_o great_a his_o son_n who_o be_v god_n yet_o die_v in_o that_o nature_n that_o can_v die_v to_o redeem_v we_o and_o hereupon_o become_v lord_n second_o he_o rise_v again_o therefore_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o dead_a first_o because_o his_o rise_n again_o be_v a_o manifestation_n that_o his_o death_n be_v a_o full_a satisfaction_n to_o divine_a justice_n or_o else_o our_o sin_n shall_v have_v keep_v he_o in_o the_o grave_n still_o he_o be_v our_o surety_n but_o our_o surety_n be_v

when_o he_o die_v but_o he_o do_v not_o enter_v into_o possession_n of_o this_o lordship_n till_o he_o rise_v again_o therefore_o he_o say_v all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o i_o both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n when_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o go_v up_o to_o heaven_n to_o show_v that_o by_o his_o resurrection_n the_o right_n he_o have_v by_o death_n be_v manifest_a last_o because_o his_o rise_n

and_o then_o the_o spirit_n that_o come_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n the_o spirit_n be_v not_o give_v till_o his_o resurrection_n and_o ascension_n as_o it_o be_v john_n 7._o why_o because_o till_o all_o enemy_n be_v full_o subdue_v by_o his_o death_n and_o witness_v to_o be_v subdue_v by_o his_o resurrection_n the_o spirit_n can_v not_o be_v so_o full_o give_v the_o spirit_n be_v a_o declaration_n of_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n that_o send_v it_o now_o when_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n be_v triumph_v over_o and_o god_n have_v show_v by_o the_o raise_n of_o his_o

we_o come_v under_o christ_n kingdom_n which_o be_v a_o spiritual_a government_n wherefore_o because_o he_o obtain_v the_o spirit_n for_o his_o member_n upon_o his_o resurrection_n thereupon_o be_v the_o inference_n good_a he_o rise_v again_o therefore_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o of_o the_o dead_a three_o he_o revive_v therefore_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o of_o

a_o principle_n of_o divinity_n among_o the_o rest_n that_o a_o christian_n be_v not_o his_o own_o man_n now_o but_o he_o be_v under_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v a_o comfort_n both_o in_o life_n and_o

so_o much_o as_o a_o hair_n from_o our_o head_n without_o the_o will_n of_o this_o lord_n all_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n can_v stir_v a_o hair_n of_o our_o head_n i_o say_v nor_o all_o man_n that_o

therefore_o it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o wondrous_a comfort_n object_n oh_o but_o will_v a_o poor_a soul_n say_v christ_n indeed_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o live_n and_o of_o the_o dead_a but_o i_o find_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o corruption_n in_o i_o etc._n etc._n and_o i_o be_o a_o sinner_n answ._n why_o he_o be_v lord_n over_o thou_o he_o have_v a_o sweet_a lordship_n over_o thou_o as_o well_o as_o

as_o of_o the_o husband_n over_o the_o wife_n christ_n purge_v and_o cleanse_v his_o church_n he_o do_v not_o cast_v it_o away_o for_o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v he_o that_o die_v for_o his_o

what_o great_a comfort_n can_v we_o have_v than_o this_o that_o he_o be_v such_o a_o lord_n over_o we_o as_o be_v lord_n over_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n beside_o for_o he_o can_v not_o be_v

for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v all_o thing_n be_v you_o because_o you_o be_v christ_n he_o be_v such_o a_o lord_n as_o that_o beside_o himself_o be_v we_o he_o make_v all_o the_o world_n we_o yea_o

whatsoever_o they_o be_v and_o he_o make_v all_o the_o endeavour_n and_o plot_n of_o the_o enemy_n for_o the_o church_n good_a all_o be_v you_o life_n and_o death_n though_o it_o be_v death_n by_o
