gospel_n be_v god_n secret_a that_o which_o be_v his_o bosom_n counsel_n angel_n nor_o man_n can_v not_o have_v know_v it_o if_o god_n have_v not_o reveal_v it_o so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o mystery_n which_o without_o revelation_n be_v unknown_a that_o which_o can_v be_v demonstrate_v or_o argue_v out_o but_o its_o nature_n consist_v in_o revelation_n among_o the_o heathen_a they_o have_v their_o mystery_n in_o their_o temple_n which_o they_o must_v not_o discover_v therefore_o there_o be_v a_o image_n before_o the_o temple_n with_o his_o finger_n before_o his_o mouth_n show_v that_o they_o must_v be_v silent_a in_o discover_v hide_a mystery_n though_o the_o gospel_n be_v now_o reveal_v yet_o it_o be_v a_o mystery_n because_o once_o it_o be_v keep_v so_o secret_a 2._o and_o which_o follow_v from_o thence_o that_o be_v a_o mystery_n which_o have_v any_o thing_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n which_o be_v not_o obvious_a and_o which_o lie_v not_o open_a to_o the_o quick_a and_o present_a apprehension_n of_o man_n as_o some_o thing_n in_o nature_n be_v say_v to_o be_v mystery_n and_o in_o government_n there_o be_v arcana_fw-la imperii_fw-la hidden_a thing_n of_o state_n that_o the_o vulgar_a can_v pry_v into_o secret_a wheel_n that_o move_v many_o action_n which_o they_o can_v see_v move_n only_o do_v behold_v the_o outward_a action_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v arcana_fw-la dei_fw-la though_o we_o see_v the_o thing_n do_v yet_o we_o see_v not_o these_o invisible_a glorious_a wheel_n which_o do_v act_v they_o and_o thus_o though_o the_o thing_n itself_o be_v reveal_v yet_o because_o the_o reason_n of_o they_o lie_v under_o ground_n they_o be_v call_v mystery_n thus_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o the_o call_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v both_o call_v mystery_n rom._n 11._o thus_o divine_a truth_n be_v mystery_n thou_o hear_v of_o christ_n and_o have_v manifestation_n of_o god_n to_o thou_o but_o alas_o the_o infinite_a reason_n god_n have_v act_v from_o the_o secret_a wheel_n that_o have_v run_v along_o in_o every_o vein_n of_o god_n love_n that_o be_v unknown_a who_o have_v search_v his_o counsel_n say_v the_o apostle_n all_o god_n action_n to_o we_o they_o have_v come_v from_o infinite_a and_o unsearchable_a counsel_n go_v into_o a_o chemist_n shop_n there_o thou_o find_v several_a extraction_n of_o metal_n which_o

contrary_a and_o impossible_a godliness_n have_v be_v act_v in_o such_o a_o invisible_a way_n that_o it_o may_v well_o be_v call_v a_o mystery_n how_o have_v the_o loadstone_n puzzle_v all_o the_o head_n of_o the_o great_a one_o in_o the_o world_n that_o they_o have_v leave_v it_o as_o a_o mystery_n a_o thing_n only_o to_o be_v believe_v but_o the_o reason_n not_o know_v only_o have_v reduce_v its_o power_n under_o a_o general_a notion_n of_o sympathy_n and_o all_o because_o man_n know_v not_o the_o occult_a reason_n of_o its_o nature_n that_o god_n shall_v carry_v himself_o in_o such_o a_o hide_a way_n of_o glory_n that_o none_o can_v find_v out_o his_o step_n but_o only_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o and_o that_o we_o can_v only_o say_v it_o be_v so_o but_o not_o how_o or_o why_o it_o be_v so_o be_v the_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n 3._o that_o be_v a_o mystery_n who_o inward_a nature_n and_o excellency_n can_v be_v express_v but_o be_v wrap_v up_o in_o outward_a figure_n and_o

thus_o marriage_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n because_o it_o be_v set_v to_o convey_v the_o hide_a and_o mystical_a marriage_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n eph._n 5._o one_o will_v have_v think_v all_o along_o that_o chapter_n he_o speak_v in_o a_o literal_a sense_n of_o marriage_n but_o at_o last_o he_o sum_v up_o all_o this_o a_o great_a mystery_n but_o i_o speak_v concern_v christ_n and_o the_o church_n thus_o all_o the_o gospel_n in_o general_a and_o in_o particular_a be_v full_a of_o mysterye_n it_o be_v own_o nature_n be_v veil_v in_o word_n and_o outward_a type_n god_n relation_n to_o we_o and_o christ_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o husband_n and_o wife_n father_n and_o child_n god_n compare_v to_o light_n christ_n set_v out_o by_o a_o lion_n a_o lamb_n a_o shepherd_n grace_n express_v by_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o precious_a stone_n heaven_n by_o paradise_n all_o which_o thing_n do_v rather_o veil_v then_o express_v these_o hide_a glory_n in_o they_o and_o all_o these_o title_n which_o be_v so_o many_o mystery_n of_o christ_n in_o which_o be_v contain_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n far_o above_o they_o and_o under_o all_o these_o be_v cover_v the_o realty_n that_o god_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n as_o hieroglyphic_n do_v denote_v something_o that_o be_v internal_a so_o do_v all_o the_o expression_n of_o scripture_n and_o all_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n but_o represent_v some_o hide_a glory_n that_o at_o first_o we_o can_v perceive_v therefore_o christ_n deliver_v the_o gospel_n in_o parable_n and_o tell_v his_o disciple_n unto_o you_o it_o be_v give_v to_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o kingdom_n god_n make_v many_o shape_n and_o appearance_n of_o these_o inward_a beauty_n that_o we_o may_v come_v to_o learn_v what_o they_o mean_v by_o these_o sensible_a thing_n as_o some_o stately_a picture_n be_v cover_v over_o with_o a_o curtain_n that_o every_o one_o that_o come_v into_o the_o room_n can_v see_v they_o so_o be_v it_o with_o the_o thing_n of_o heaven_n they_o be_v represent_v in_o gross_a body_n which_o be_v as_o a_o curtain_n before_o they_o and_o until_o that_o be_v draw_v none_o can_v behold_v they_o the_o sacrament_n they_o be_v outward_a sign_n of_o a_o invisible_a glory_n in_o water_n and_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v represent_v and_o veil_v christ_n in_o his_o person_n and_o merit_n in_o all_o his_o holiness_n to_o the_o soul_n he_o that_o come_v and_o touch_v these_o thing_n and_o taste_v they_o may_v see_v but_o little_a in_o they_o more_o than_o in_o ordinary_a bread_n but_o only_o god_n discover_v a_o mystery_n under_o these_o sign_n unto_o a_o saint_n faith_n make_v the_o soul_n see_v christ_n in_o his_o nature_n and_o merit_n and_o feel_v he_o in_o his_o virtue_n so_o in_o preach_v the_o high_a and_o unexpressible_a love_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v let_v forth_o in_o the_o word_n of_o a_o minister_n which_o word_n can_v never_o express_v what_o that_o love_n be_v and_o

these_o word_n and_o the_o great_a and_o inward_a thing_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v through_o these_o word_n and_o this_o be_v one_o great_a respect_n wherein_o the_o godliness_n be_v call_v a_o

by_o degree_n the_o variety_n of_o its_o act_n be_v so_o many_o as_o that_o you_o have_v it_o open_v in_o several_a parcel_n as_o some_o look_n that_o you_o have_v see_v have_v so_o many_o several_a
