space_n now_o we_o read_v heb._n 12._o 12._o the_o apostle_n to_o hold_v forth_o this_o very_a relation_n of_o god_n be_v a_o father_n of_o spirit_n with_o this_o promise_n thereunto_o annex_v that_o they_o shall_v live_v which_o relation_n of_o father_n etc._n etc._n although_o it_o be_v there_o explicit_o speak_v in_o respect_n of_o their_o first_o creation_n which_o be_v common_a unto_o the_o

subject_a unto_o he_o as_o such_o with_o promise_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v it_o evident_o respect_v not_o mere_o the_o relation_n of_o father_n in_o respect_n of_o what_o be_v past_o the_o act_n of_o create_v they_o but_o it_o look_v to_o the_o future_a that_o they_o depend_v upon_o he_o as_o child_n do_v upon_o father_n for_o their_o future_a livelihood_n so_o these_o for_o to_o live_v in_o he_o and_o with_o he_o as_o a_o father_n to_o their_o spirit_n by_o grace_n for_o i_o take_v hold_v of_o that_o word_n and_o live_v this_o life_n be_v well_o interpret_v by_o ver._n 14._o they_o shall_v see_v god_n that_o be_v be_v glorify_v and_o so_o i_o conclude_v all_o thus_o that_o if_o he_o will_v have_v they_o be_v subject_a unto_o god_n in_o holiness_n as_o upon_o that_o relation_n as_o unto_o the_o father_n of_o spirit_n with_o this_o promise_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v then_o sure_o one_o special_a aim_n of_o the_o promise_n be_v answerable_a and_o have_v this_o eye_n that_o god_n as_o a_o father_n of_o their_o spirit_n will_v therefore_o take_v care_n of_o their_o spirit_n single_o and_o so_o when_o separate_a that_o they_o shall_v live_v and_o that_o according_o

true_o when_o its_o more_o proper_a for_o he_o to_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n then_o when_o their_o soul_n after_o their_o subjection_n to_o he_o in_o holiness_n here_o accomplish_v and_o when_o that_o as_o naked_a spirit_n they_o come_v to_o stand_v in_o need_n and_o stand_v afore_o he_o in_o his_o presence_n be_v now_o turn_v out_o of_o house_n and_o home_n and_o quite_o cashier_v out_o of_o this_o world_n and_o come_v strip_v and_o naked_a of_o all_o but_o holiness_n unto_o their_o father_n for_o it_o be_v say_v they_o return_v to_o god_n that_o give_v they_o who_o prove_v to_o be_v their_o father_n by_o grace_n and_o doubt_v not_o of_o it_o but_o he_o will_v certain_o then_o own_v they_o and_o give_v they_o a_o father_n blessing_n and_o not_o reject_v they_o as_o if_o they_o be_v but_o bastard_n and_o no_o child_n as_o that_o chapter_n to_o the_o hebrew_n speak_v but_o as_o spirit_n who_o as_o son_n that_o have_v serve_v he_o and_o be_v subject_n to_o he_o add_v to_o this_o four_o god_n his_o be_v our_o god_n which_o be_v more_o home_n to_o the_o demonstration_n of_o this_o point_n than_o all_o the_o former_a the_o text_n say_v he_o that_o wrought_v we_o for_o this_o be_v god_n i_o add_v he_o be_v your_o god_n and_o this_o alone_a if_o we_o will_v take_v the_o scripture_n verdict_n will_v carry_v it_o and_o lo_o as_o he_o be_v style_v the_o father_n of_o spirit_n in_o common_a and_o yet_o withal_o a_o father_n of_o their_o spirit_n out_o of_o special_a love_n so_o in_o like_o manner_n 22._o he_o be_v style_v both_o the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o

in_o this_o latter_a respect_n you_o find_v yoke_v hand_n in_o hand_n joh._n 20._o 17._o look_v how_o far_o he_o be_v a_o god_n of_o the_o one_o so_o far_o a_o father_n also_o extend_v in_o the_o

thus_o christ_n 2._o paul_n collection_n from_o the_o same_o promise_n be_v that_o god_n have_v provide_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n for_o abraham_n soul_n afore_o the_o resurrection_n a_o city_n and_o

in_o the_o verse_n afore_o to_o have_v be_v this_o that_o god_n have_v indeed_o promise_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n to_o he_o and_o they_o ver._n 8_o 9_o whereupon_o ver._n 13._o it_o be_v say_v

stephen_n speak_v act_n 7._o 5_o 6_o 7._o and_o also_o paul_n in_o the_o 9th_o verse_n of_o this_o heb._n 11._o now_o then_o when_o they_o die_v what_o be_v it_o their_o faith_n expect_v in_o stead_n thereof_o the_o 10_o verse_n tell_v we_o he_o look_v for_o a_o city_n who_o maker_n and_o builder_n be_v god_n from_o which_o compare_v observe_v that_o when_o he_o die_v his_o faith_n be_v thus_o

appear_v that_o this_o flow_v from_o god_n have_v profess_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o god_n of_o abraham_n etc._n etc._n his_o reward_n and_o his_o friend_n you_o have_v this_o clear_a in_o the_o 16_o verse_n where_o you_o have_v the_o whole_a sum_v up_o as_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o story_n and_o as_o the_o proof_n and_o ground_n hereof_o but_o now_o they_o desire_v a_o better_a country_n that_o be_v a_o heavenly_a there_o be_v their_o faith_n and_o expectation_n when_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o die_v then_o it_o follow_v wherefore_o god_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o be_v call_v their_o

the_o word_n be_v express_v wherefore_o god_n be_v not_o ashamed_a what_o shall_v this_o mean_a in_o this_o coherence_n but_o that_o his_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v their_o

god_n do_v import_v and_o carry_v this_o with_o it_o that_o he_o have_v provide_v this_o estate_n for_o they_o at_o their_o death_n even_o a_o heavenly_a and_o that_o otherwise_o as_o the_o apostle_n

it_o in_o plain_a english_a as_o we_o speak_v if_o he_o have_v not_o make_v this_o provision_n for_o their_o soul_n he_o will_v have_v be_v ashamed_a to_o have_v be_v call_v their_o god_n thus_o deep_o do_v this_o oblige_v he_o that_o he_o be_v our_o god_n and_o father_n which_o be_v the_o point_n in_o hand_n and_o judge_v of_o this_o in_o the_o light_n of_o all_o that_o reason_n we_o have_v

shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o all_o in_o this_o world_n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o god_n in_o this_o case_n will_v have_v be_v ashamed_a to_o have_v be_v call_v his_o god_n which_o now_o have_v

that_o their_o expectation_n can_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v let_v we_o but_o view_v the_o force_n of_o this_o inference_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o so_o of_o all_o the_o reason_n hitherto_o read_v
