unto_o all_o ro._n 10.12_o this_o may_v humble_v we_o this_o may_v comfort_v we_o this_o may_v unite_v we_o 1._o this_o may_v humble_v we_o for_o god_n make_v no_o difference_n of_o we_o in_o the_o

star_n in_o glory_n so_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a 1_o cor._n 15._o let_v not_o then_o this_o order_n make_v disorder_n presume_v in_o superior_n murmur_v in_o inferior_n there_o it_o can_v be_v because_o of_o their_o fullness_n for_o every_o one_o be_v fill_v alike_o because_o he_o be_v fulfil_v their_o fill_n be_v alike_o though_o their_o measure_n differ_v and_o here_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v because_o of_o our_o emptiness_n we_o be_v alike_o empty_a of_o grace_n by_o nature_n till_o god_n afford_v we_o several_a degree_n of_o fill_v and_o if_o we_o will_v boast_v of_o worldly_a fullness_n how_o little_a cause_n have_v we_o to_o be_v proud_a of_o it_o when_o as_o here_o we_o see_v the_o stream_n of_o grace_n run_v alike_o to_o all_o sort_n and_o degree_n 2._o this_o also_o may_v comfort_v we_o that_o this_o stream_n rune_v unto_o all_o for_o therefore_o it_o can_v fail_v to_o we_o neither_o can_v we_o fail_v to_o it_o it_o can_v fail_v to_o we_o by_o length_n or_o largeness_n of_o run_v the_o spring_n be_v the_o same_o how_o many_o soever_o do_v drink_n of_o the_o stream_n we_o can_v fail_v to_o it_o by_o our_o high_a or_o low_o be_v for_o it_o find_v out_o all_o estate_n it_o run_v unto_o all_o despair_v not_o therefore_o on_o god_n part_n his_o fountain_n can_v be_v draw_v dry_a despair_v not_o on_o thy_o own_o part_n for_o whosoever_o thou_o be_v thou_o be_v not_o debar_v the_o stream_n of_o grace_n this_o comfort_n abound_v whatsoever_o fail_v all_o sort_n partake_v of_o grace_n it_o run_v unto_o all_o all_o we_o have_v receive_v 3._o three_o this_o may_v unite_v we_o why_o god_n do_v equal_v we_o in_o the_o best_a thing_n his_o grace_n run_v unto_o all_o what_o strong_a bond_n can_v there_o be_v of_o union_n have_v we_o not_o all_o one_o father_n why_o do_v we_o transgress_v every_o one_o against_o his_o brother_n mal._n 2.10_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n there_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n even_o as_o you_o be_v call_v in_o one_o hope_n of_o your_o call_n one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n one_o god_n and_o father_n of_o all_o eph._n 4.3_o and_o so_o much_o of_o the_o second_o general_a part_n of_o the_o text_n viz._n the_o stream_n all_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o three_o and_o last_o general_a part_n be_v the_o bank_n and_o grace_n for_o grace_n every_o fountain_n have_v a_o stream_n every_o stream_n have_v its_o bank_n therefore_o the_o evangelist_n here_o show_v not_o only_o the_o fountain_n from_o whence_o and_o the_o stream_n how_o but_o also_o bank_n and_o bound_n how_o far_o forth_o and_o in_o what_o measure_n grace_n do_v flow_v and_o grace_n for_o grace_n some_o will_v have_v it_o take_v prorata_fw-la portione_fw-la that_o there_o be_v a_o proportion_n of_o grace_n in_o we_o answerable_a to_o that_o in_o christ_n namely_o that_o he_o impart_v to_o his_o church_n every_o of_o his_o grace_n because_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n and_o the_o church_n be_v the_o body_n and_o caput_fw-la in_o membra_fw-la redundat_fw-la between_o the_o head_n and_o the_o body_n there_o be_v communion_n of_o influence_n and_o can_v be_v no_o stoppage_n and_o so_o grace_n for_o grace_n be_v that_o we_o have_v a_o grace_n in_o we_o for_o every_o grace_n grace_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o that_o we_o also_o have_v our_o fullness_n answerable_a to_o his_o and_o so_o indeed_o the_o church_n be_v call_v his_o body_n the_o fullness_n of_o he_o that_o fill_v all_o in_o all_o eph._n 1.23_o so_o that_o then_o this_o be_v true_a be_v true_o take_v and_o right_o understand_v the_o bank_n observe_v our_o measure_n keep_v christ_n communicate_v unto_o we_o whatsoever_o he_o have_v even_o grace_n for_o grace_n his_o fullness_n become_v we_o and_o that_o be_v not_o only_o by_o way_n of_o imputation_n he_o be_v make_v unto_o we_o wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n and_o sanctification_n and_o redemption_n 1_o
