they_o now_o in_o the_o serious_a exercise_n of_o faith_n we_o ought_v to_o attend_v this_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v how_o that_o all_o the_o great_a thing_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v transact_v

will_n for_o the_o most_o part_n depend_v one_o upon_o another_o and_o the_o former_a proposition_n will_v be_v introductory_n and_o lead_n to_o they_o that_o do_v succeed_v before_o i_o come_v to_o

maker_n man_n when_o first_o he_o come_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o see_v himself_o in_o a_o state_n of_o inferiority_n unto_o god_n he_o see_v that_o god_n be_v above_o he_o and_o that_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o be_v from_o god_n and_o that_o receive_v his_o be_v from_o god_n he_o must_v necessary_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o inferiority_n and_o subjection_n to_o he_o man_n also_o see_v that_o have_v receive_v his_o be_v from_o god_n he_o be_v under_o a_o vast_a obligation_n of_o gratitude_n love_n and_o service_n into_o god_n who_o have_v give_v he_o be_v and_o such_o a_o excellent_a be_v man_n also_o see_v that_o receive_v his_o be_v from_o another_o and_o not_o have_v it_o from_o himself_o it_o be_v most_o just_a and_o reasonable_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v under_o the_o will_n of_o he_o who_o give_v he_o his_o be_v and_o not_o under_o the_o conduct_n and_o government_n of_o his_o own_o will_n these_o deduction_n do_v natural_o flow_v from_o the_o principle_n of_o right_a reason_n which_o we_o must_v suppose_v to_o be_v in_o man_n in_o his_o primitive_a estate_n 2._o the_o second_o proposition_n be_v this_o that_o man_n be_v every_o way_n fit_v and_o qualify_v to_o give_v obedience_n to_o the_o law_n of_o his_o creation_n man_n we_o know_v at_o first_o be_v create_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a

also_o as_o it_o be_v first_o create_v have_v no_o obliquity_n in_o it_o but_o be_v incline_v to_o good_a his_o affection_n be_v all_o regular_a god_n make_v man_n upright_o as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v eccles_n 7.29_o every_o thing_n be_v upright_o most_o upright_o in_o man_n in_o his_o first_o creation_n there_o be_v nothing_o out_o of_o order_n in_o he_o the_o will_n of_o man_n be_v then_o

our_o own_o sad_a experience_n but_o yet_o though_o man_n be_v not_o create_v at_o first_o in_o a_o impeccable_a estate_n but_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o to_o sin_n yet_o he_o be_v
