humble_a christ_n a_o crucify_a christ_n will_v make_v you_o humble_a if_o i_o have_v gallant_a and_o brave_a clothes_n on_o and_o go_v abroad_o and_o swagger_v with_o they_o and_o a_o man_n come_v and_o tell_v i_o sir_n you_o owe_v for_o these_o clothes_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o take_v down_o my_o plume_n so_o now_o though_o a_o man_n be_v proud_a of_o this_o or_o that_o good_a thing_n yet_o if_o he_o do_v but_o see_v christ_n crucify_v he_o shall_v there_o be_v tell_v that_o christ_n have_v pay_v for_o all_o and_o this_o will_v take_v down_o his_o pride_n do_v you_o complain_v of_o a_o hard_a heart_n the_o sight_n of_o a_o break_a christ_n will_v break_v your_o heart_n or_o nothing_o will_n so_o that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n crucify_v be_v that_o that_o will_v furnish_v you_o and_o prepare_v you_o to_o every_o good_a word_n and_o work_n and_o therefore_o o_o friend_n who_o will_v not_o labour_v to_o know_v christ_n crucify_v let_v i_o speak_v a_o little_a more_o 11._o this_o be_v the_o knowledge_n that_o be_v the_o soul-humbling_a knowledge_n other_o knowledge_n puff_v up_o but_o if_o you_o know_v christ_n crucify_v you_o may_v glory_v in_o your_o knowledge_n without_o pride_n let_v not_o the_o wise_a man_n glory_n in_o his_o wisdom_n nor_o the_o strong_a man_n in_o his_o strength_n nor_o the_o learned_a man_n glory_n in_o his_o learning_n if_o i_o glory_v in_o my_o wisdom_n i_o be_o proud_a if_o i_o glory_v in_o my_o strength_n i_o be_o proud_a but_o if_o i_o glory_v in_o that_o that_o i_o know_v christ_n crucify_v the_o more_o i_o glory_n in_o christ_n crucify_v the_o more_o humble_a i_o be_o that_o be_v a_o soul-humbling_a knowledge_n 12._o this_o be_v that_o knowledge_n which_o be_v the_o high_a experimental_a knowledge_n in_o the_o world_n a_o man_n may_v have_v the_o experience_n of_o his_o own_o sin_n yet_o be_v a_o wicked_a man_n oh_o i_o have_v such_o a_o proud_a heart_n such_o a_o vain_a heart_n may_v he_o say_v why_o for_o his_o sin_n be_v within_o he_o and_o he_o may_v easy_o though_o a_o wicked_a man_n have_v experience_n of_o what_o be_v within_o he_o by_o nature_n but_o to_o have_v experience_n of_o a_o crucify_a christ_n be_v not_o by_o nature_n this_o be_v the_o high_a experience_n in_o the_o world_n christ_n in_o i_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n this_o be_v the_o most_o true_a experimental_a knowledge_n 13._o this_o be_v that_o knowledge_n that_o will_v make_v a_o man_n wise_a indeed_o other_o knowledge_n may_v make_v a_o man_n wise_a quoad_fw-la hoc_fw-la to_o this_o or_o that_o thing_n but_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n crucify_v do_v make_v a_o man_n wise_a at_o large_a and_o therefore_o i_o say_v o_o what_o a_o bless_a thing_n be_v it_o to_o know_v christ_n crucify_v and_o who_o will_v not_o labour_v to_o know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n 6._o you_o will_v say_v then_o in_o the_o six_o place_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v to_o know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n for_o we_o have_v hear_v man_n may_v live_v under_o the_o gospel_n sit_v upon_o the_o high_a form_n of_o profession_n and_o yet_o not_o know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v then_o that_o we_o may_v know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n something_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o the_o manner_n and_o something_o to_o the_o mean_n as_o to_o the_o manner_n if_o you_o will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n you_o must_v look_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o great_a institution_n and_o appointment_n of_o the_o father_n when_o god_n do_v deal_v with_o we_o in_o a_o way_n of_o institution_n he_o have_v not_o respect_n unto_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o mean_n or_o the_o worth_n of_o the_o person_n when_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o in_o a_o way_n of_o nature_n there_o be_v respect_n have_v to_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o mean_n or_o the_o worth_n of_o the_o person_n as_o in_o physic_n god_n deal_v in_o a_o way_n of_o nature_n there_o respect_n be_v have_v to_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o mean_n but_o when_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o in_o a_o way_n of_o institution_n there_o he_o have_v neither_o respect_n to_o the_o strength_n of_o mean_n nor_o to_o the_o worth_n of_o person_n now_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o great_a institution_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o so_o if_o we_o will_v know_v he_o right_o we_o must_v look_v upon_o he_o for_o though_o the_o sting_v israelite_n be_v cure_v by_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o cure_v by_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o mettle_n of_o the_o serpent_n but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o appointment_n and_o as_o a_o institution_n so_o if_o a_o man_n will_v know_v christ_n to_o purpose_n he_o must_v know_v he_o and_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o great_a institution_n and_o appointment_n of_o the_o father_n him_n have_v god_n the_o father_n seal_v and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o many_o go_v to_o and_o get_v no_o good_a by_o a_o crucify_a christ_n but_o because_o they_o never_o do_v to_o this_o day_n look_v upon_o christ_n crucify_v as_o the_o great_a institution_n of_o the_o father_n 2._o if_o you_o will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n you_o must_v then_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o send_v you_o must_v look_v upon_o this_o crucify_a christ_n under_o the_o mission_n of_o the_o father_n there_o be_v three_o great_a mission_n that_o you_o read_v of_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n there_o be_v the_o mission_n of_o minister_n they_o be_v send_v out_o to_o preach_v there_o be_v the_o mission_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i_o will_v send_v the_o comforter_n there_o be_v the_o mission_n of_o the_o son_n send_v from_o the_o father_n now_o the_o mission_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o father_n be_v the_o original_n of_o all_o the_o ●ther_a mission_n and_o you_o can_v know_v the_o other_o mission_n right_o if_o you_o do_v not_o know_v this_o original_a mission_n if_o you_o will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o righ●_n manner_n you_o must_v know_v he_o as_o send_v in_o the_o 17._o 〈◊〉_d john_n say_v christ_n in_o his_o prayer_n to_o the_o father_n but_o have_v know_v thou_o and_o these_o have_v know_v that_o tho●_n have_v send_v i_o so_o that_o if_o you_o will_v know_v chri●●_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n you_o must_v know_v him●_n and_o look_n upon_o he_o as_o under_o a_o

in_o the_o suffering_n of_o chri●●_n then_o you_o know_v christ_n when_o you_o know_v the_o father_n and_o you_o know_v the_o father_n when_o you_o know●_n the_o father_n design_n what_o be_v the_o

well_o upo●_n the_o testamentalness_n of_o christ_n suffering_n as_o th●_n greatness_n of_o his_o suffering_n some_o look_n much_o at_o th●_n greatness_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o friar_n and_o monk_n and_o never_o look_v at_o the_o testamentalnes●_n of_o christ_n suffering_n oh_o say_v they_o christ_n death_n be_v a_o painful_a reproachful_a and_o a_o linger_a death_n and_o thus_o they_o aggravate_v as_o true_o the●_n may_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n but_o not_o one_o wor●_n of_o the_o testamentalness_n of_o his_o suffering_n but_o christ_n death_n be_v to_o seal_v the_o covenant_n therefore_o if_o yo●_n will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v right_o you_o must_v a●_n well_o look_v upon_o the_o testamentalness_n of_o his_o suffering_n as_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o suffering_n thus_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o manner_n if_o you_o will_v know_v christ_n right_o and_o 2._o for_o the_o mean_n i_o shall_v speak_v two_o or_o three_o thing_n if_o you_o will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v in_o a_o right_a manner_n for_o mean_n then_o go_v unto_o god_n the_o father_n to_o create_v this_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n crucify_v in_o you_o all_o light_n be_v at_o the_o first_o by_o a_o word_n of_o creation_n let_v there_o be_v light_n and_o as_o in_o the_o old_a creation_n the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n so_o in_o the_o new_a creation_n let_v there_o be_v light_n let_v there_o be_v knowledge_n god_n that_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v the_o light_n

of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n this_o light_n come_v into_o the_o soul_n in_o a_o way_n of_o creation_n go_v then_o to_o god_n to_o create_v this_o light_n and_o be_v sure_a that_o you_o set_v open_v all_o your_o window_n that_o the_o light_n may_v come_v in_o there_o be_v some_o sickly_a and_o weak_a who_o will_v fain_o have_v the_o light_n to_o come_v into_o their_o chamber_n but_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o the_o cold_a air_n and_o so_o dare_v not_o open_v their_o window_n so_o here_o some_o will_v fain_o have_v more_o

in_o a_o right_a way_n and_o manner_n then_o study_v much_o think_v much_o upon_o this_o crucify_a christ_n meditate_v much_o insist_v and_o dwell_v much_o upon_o christ_n crucify_v it_o be_v not_o

will_v know_v christ_n crucify_v you_o must_v be_v conversant_a with_o he_o you_o must_v sit_v down_o and_o consider_v and_o dwell_v upon_o christ_n crucify_v in_o your_o thought_n and_o meditation_n
