in_o himself_o at_o that_o very_a time_n to_o look_v upon_o he_o in_o christ_n and_o behold_v he_o as_o righteous_a as_o if_o he_o have_v no_o spot_n no_o defilement_n in_o he_o brethren_n all_o these_o be_v miracle_n of_o mercy_n again_o that_o god_n shall_v pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o a_o poor_a lump_n of_o flesh_n that_o his_o spirit_n shall_v work_v upon_o a_o poor_a creature_n and_o take_v a_o poor_a creature_n into_o union_n with_o himself_o and_o communion_n with_o himself_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v work_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o cleanse_v a_o poor_a creature_n from_o

of_o a_o soul_n to_o god_n and_o therefore_o to_o conclude_v all_o in_o the_o last_o place_n let_v we_o bless_v god_n for_o his_o word_n and_o look_v more_o use_n 3_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n then_o to_o miracle_n see_v what_o power_n god_n have_v put_v into_o his_o word_n and_o how_o he_o ●s_v please_v to_o accompany_v his_o word_n with_o his_o spirit_n and_o do_v great_a thing_n and_o now_o why_o shall_v we_o look_v to_o miracle_n and_o why_o shall_v we_o stand_v upon_o miracle_n true_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n without_o miracle_n neither_o will_v you_o believe_v though_o god_n shall_v work_v miracle_n why_o there_o be_v more_o power_n in_o the_o word_n to_o persuade_v the_o heart_n that_o it_o be_v indeed_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o so_o to_o overcome_v the_o soul_n to_o believe_v to_o rest_v on_o it_o than_o there_o be_v in_o all_o miracle_n that_o can_v be_v show_v and_o therefore_o in_o this_o case_n if_o any_o look_n for_o a_o miracle_n they_o may_v hear_v christ_n say_v no_o miracle_n shall_v be_v give_v to_o such_o a_o generation_n he_o that_o believe_v n●t_v the_o word_n he_o will_v not_o believe_v though_o one_o

wrought_v upon_o by_o this_o miracle_n but_o he_o return_v again_o to_o hi●_n own_o folly_n and_o therefore_o oh_o praise_v the_o lord_n for_o his_o word_n bless_v the_o lord_n for_o his_o word_n if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v for_o the_o word_n of_o his_o grace_n how_o shall_v a_o poor_a creature_n have_v be_v bring_v in_o and_o what_o shall_v poor_a creature_n have_v rely_v upon_o what_o

i_o propound_v this_o question_n the_o last_o time_n whether_o nebucadnezzar_n be_v true_o bring_v home_o to_o god_n or_o no_o he_o do_v a_o great_a deal_n he_o speak_v a_o great_a deal_n there_o be_v

all_o this_o we_o conclude_v probable_o that_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v not_o convert_v for_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n he_o return_v to_o his_o old_a way_n of_o sin_n of_o superstition_n he_o dream_v

the_o son_n of_o god_n it_o be_v the_o hard_a matter_n in_o the_o world_n to_o bring_v god_n and_o the_o heart_n together_o they_o be_v at_o such_o a_o great_a d●stance_n infinite_a distance_n and_o

and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v look_v upon_o that_o miracle_n of_o iniquity_n that_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n that_o the_o heart_n

that_o any_o soul_n shall_v be_v convert_v and_o bring_v home_o to_o god_n see_v conversion_n be_v so_o hard_a a_o thing_n and_o miracle_n will_v not_o do_v it_o what_o a_o miracle_n it_o be_v for_o a_o soul_n to_o be_v bring_v home_o to_o god_n i_o show_v how_o many_o miracle_n be_v in_o this_o work_n miracle_n of_o wisdom_n miracle_n of_o power_n miracle_n of_o mercy_n oh_o we_o shall_v bless_v

by_o some_o fresh_a gale_n but_o the_o text_n say_v they_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o fire_n now_o here_o be_v the_o wonder_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v fire_n and_o yet_o not_o burn_v the_o

which_o do_v convince_v he_o that_o he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o man_n and_o so_o he_o call_v he_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o without_o all_o doubt_n this_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o be_v among_o they_o it_o be_v none_o other_o but_o jesu●_n christ_n ●he_n come_v down_o to_o rescue_v he_o come_v down_o to_o deliver_v he_o come_v down_o to_o walk_v with_o his_o servant_n in_o the_o

be_v not_o then_o come_v in_o the_o flesh_n he_o have_v not_o take_v a_o body_n that_o body_n that_o he_o do_v appear_v in_o it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n jesus_n christ_n have_v now_o in_o heaven_n it_o be_v not_o unite_v hypostatical_o unto_o his_o person_n it_o be_v not_o that_o flesh_n he_o take_v afterward_o and_o in_o which_o he_o now_o appear_v before_o his_o father_n for_o we_o but_o yet_o the_o son_n of_o god_n do_v sometime_o take_v up_o a_o body_n yea_o many_o a_o time_n in_o which_o he_o appear_v oftentimes_o to_o the_o patriarch_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n as_o to_o

be_v they_o the_o body_n of_o man_n or_o no_o answ_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v most_o probable_a they_o be_v body_n that_o be_v create_v the_o son_n of_o god_n when_o he_o appear_v to_o the_o patriarch_n when_o he_o appear_v to_o any_o of_o his_o servant_n he_o have_v power_n to_o create_v himself_o a_o body_n at_o any_o time_n to_o make_v a_o body_n of_o nothing_o and_o so_o to_o dissolve_v it_o in_o a_o moment_n to_o nothing_o as_o to_o make_v it_o in_o a_o moment_n so_o to_o dissolve_v it_o in_o a_o moment_n and_o thus_o do_v the_o son_n of_o god_n appear_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o these_o three_o child_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o sign_n unto_o they_o and_o to_o the_o church_n first_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v afterward_o come_v and_o take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n that_o he_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n to_o rescue_v the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n from_o the_o flame_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o deliver_v they_o from_o hell_n &_o destruction_n second_o that_o he_o will_v be_v with_o his_o people_n in_o all_o furnace_n of_o tribulation_n that_o when_o they_o walk_v through_o the_o fire_n and_o through_o the_o water_n he_o

these_o his_o son_n there_o be_v very_o many_o observation_n that_o the_o word_n will_v afford_v we_o but_o i_o shall_v not_o stand_v to_o name_v they_o lest_o the_o time_n prevent_v i_o but_o shall_v

of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o shall_v clear_v up_o this_o truth_n to_o you_o and_o confirm_v it_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o lord_n show_v his_o wonder_n in_o the_o deep_a that_o he_o may_v rescue_v the_o life_n of_o his_o servant_n from_o destruction_n he_o have_v discover_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o great_a water_n and_o make_v a_o path_n in_o the_o midst_n water_n
