suffer_v death_n for_o sin_n give_v we_o a_o most_o convince_a example_n that_o we_o shall_v die_v unto_o it_o and_o suffer_v it_o no_o more_o to_o live_v in_o we_o now_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v and_o remember_v that_o in_o all_o these_o step_n the_o suffering_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n etc._n etc._n have_v these_o influence_n upon_o we_o not_o as_o they_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o bare_o in_o our_o own_o spirit_n or_o as_o we_o do_v bring_v they_o to_o our_o remembrance_n thereby_o and_o so_o make_v a_o work_n upon_o ourselves_o in_o our_o own_o thought_n and_o motion_n for_o in_o so_o do_v we_o shall_v never_o profit_v our_o own_o soul_n either_o in_o die_v unto_o sin_n or_o live_v in_o holiness_n unto_o god_n indeed_o we_o may_v thereby_o raise_v spark_n of_o our_o own_o kindle_v in_o the_o affectionate_a part_n and_o work_v some_o effect_n in_o our_o heart_n which_o may_v be_v a_o shadow_n or_o likeness_n of_o these_o thing_n but_o can_v never_o be_v the_o thing_n themselves_o but_o as_o they_o be_v inward_o present_v to_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o light_n life_n and_o spirit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o apply_v thereby_o and_o that_o instant_o and_o continual_o for_o it_o be_v his_o light_n life_n and_o spirit_n alone_o which_o both_o give_v the_o true_a understanding_n of_o the_o use_n and_o end_v of_o these_o thing_n and_o also_o give_v unto_o the_o soul_n the_o live_a sense_n and_o feel_n of_o they_o and_o in_o a_o live_n and_o effectual_a way_n do_v only_o and_o can_v apply_v they_o unto_o the_o soul_n and_o whole_a power_n thereof_o for_o the_o work_v such_o suitable_a effect_n and_o impression_n as_o be_v proper_a thereunto_o but_o some_o may_v say_v see_v the_o outward_a come_v suffering_n and_o death_n etc._n etc._n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o it_o be_v know_v and_o improve_v by_o the_o soul_n be_v so_o effectual_a to_o work_v faith_n and_o love_n in_o it_o towards_o god_n and_o for_o its_o mortification_n unto_o sin_n and_o live_n in_o holiness_n unto_o god_n will_v it_o not_o therefore_o seem_v that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o outward_a come_v suffering_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n as_o aforesaid_a be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n unto_o every_o one_o for_o the_o attainment_n of_o these_o thing_n for_o how_o can_v a_o soul_n believe_v that_o god_n will_v be_v gracious_a unto_o it_o or_o be_v reconcileable_a with_o it_o but_o as_o it_o look_v upon_o that_o testimony_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o love_n in_o send_v his_o belove_a son_n outward_o into_o the_o world_n to_o suffer_v and_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n in_o order_n unto_o our_o reconciliation_n and_o peace_n with_o god_n also_o how_o can_v it_o love_n god_n with_o that_o purity_n and_o fervency_n of_o love_n which_o be_v according_a to_o the_o gospel_n but_o as_o it_o regard_v and_o consider_v that_o testimony_n of_o his_o love_n in_o the_o come_v suffering_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o outward_a answ_n indeed_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o outward_a come_v suffering_n and_o death_n be_v of_o very_a bless_a use_n and_o advantage_n and_o all_o who_o have_v it_o shall_v be_v very_o thankful_a unto_o god_n who_o have_v give_v we_o this_o testimony_n of_o his_o love_n goodwill_n long-suffering_a and_o power_n in_o the_o outward_a come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o more_o abundant_a help_a and_o enable_v we_o to_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o love_v he_o yet_o this_o i_o say_v though_o express_a knowledge_n of_o his_o outward_a come_v suffering_n and_o death_n be_v very_o profitable_a to_o beget_v faith_n and_o love_n in_o man_n towards_o god_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o aught_o to_o be_v high_o value_v in_o its_o place_n nevertheless_o this_o express_a knowledge_n be_v not_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n unto_o faith_n and_o love_n forasmuch_o as_o the_o outward_a come_v suffering_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n may_v have_v and_o have_v a_o real_a and_o true_a influence_n upon_o they_o who_o know_v it_o not_o express_o for_o see_v he_o have_v taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n and_o give_v his_o life_n a_o ransom_n for_o all_o it_o can_v be_v but_o that_o it_o shall_v have_v a_o influence_n upon_o all_o yea_o the_o apostle_n express_o mention_n what_o it_o be_v rom._n 5.18_o 19_o how_o that_o by_o the_o righteousness_n and_o obedience_n of_o christ_n the_o free_a gift_n be_v come_v upon_o all_o to_o justification_n of_o life_n look_v then_o as_o many_o of_o adam_n posterity_n suffer_v disadvantage_n by_o his_o disobedience_n who_o never_o know_v it_o express_o so_o why_o may_v not_o many_o receive_v a_o advantage_n by_o christ_n the_o second_o adam_n obedience_n even_o in_o the_o outward_a who_o never_o know_v it_o express_o yea_o certain_o they_o have_v for_o how_o many_o thousand_o have_v be_v save_v before_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o outward_a who_o know_v it_o not_o express_o and_o many_o who_o know_v something_o of_o it_o it_o be_v but_o very_o dark_o and_o under_o vail_n and_o figure_n yea_o the_o very_a disciple_n do_v not_o for_o a_o good_a time_n know_v of_o his_o death_n so_o that_o when_o he_o tell_v they_o of_o it_o they_o be_v astonish_v and_o yet_o they_o have_v both_o faith_n and_o love_n in_o some_o measure_n see_v than_o that_o some_o have_v faith_n and_o love_n to_o god_n and_o be_v save_v without_o the_o express_a knowledge_n thereof_o before_o he_o come_v outward_o why_o not_o also_o after_o his_o come_n where_o his_o come_n outward_o have_v not_o be_v preach_v nor_o reveal_v yea_o have_v not_o god_n a_o way_n of_o save_a infant_n and_o the_o dumb_a and_o deaf_a who_o have_v not_o that_o express_a knowledge_n for_o now_o christ_n be_v inward_o come_v in_o a_o seed_n of_o life_n and_o light_a in_o all_o which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n by_o which_o man_n may_v be_v reconcile_v with_o god_n as_o they_o join_v and_o apply_v their_o mind_n thereunto_o and_o in_o this_o the_o lord_n god_n do_v give_v a_o sufficient_a testimony_n of_o his_o love_n mercy_n goodwill_n long_o suffer_v and_o power_n unto_o every_o man_n for_o his_o salvation_n whereby_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o to_o attain_v unto_o the_o true_a faith_n in_o god_n and_o the_o true_a love_n towards_o he_o even_o according_a to_o the_o gospel_n and_o in_o this_o holy_a seed_n the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n and_o how_o he_o bear_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o make_v intercession_n or_o atonement_n unto_o god_n may_v be_v learn_v in_o some_o measure_n with_o many_o other_o thing_n concern_v christ_n in_o relation_n to_o he_o and_o his_o do_n and_o suffering_n in_o the_o outward_a which_o be_v a_o outward_a and_o visible_a testimony_n of_o his_o inward_a do_n and_o suffering_n in_o all_o age_n in_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o holy_a seed_n and_o indeed_o we_o find_v that_o this_o be_v only_o the_o true_a and_o effectual_a way_n of_o know_v the_o use_n and_o work_v of_o his_o come_v and_o
