christ_n satisfy_v the_o kill_a demand_n of_o the_o law_n have_v indeed_o take_v away_o the_o very_a ground_n of_o fear_n the_o very_a strength_n of_o sin_n which_o without_o that_o strength_n can_v afford_v death_n the_o least_o sting_n to_o wound_v we_o four_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o as_o the_o strength_n of_o sin_n so_o the_o strength_n also_o of_o the_o devil_n temptation_n to_o fear_v death_n so_o that_o when_o a_o saint_n fear_v death_n upon_o the_o devil_n temptation_n he_o fear_v a_o lie_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o a_o fancy_n of_o his_o own_o for_o christ_n have_v real_o break_v

and_o death_n what_o power_n of_o death_n than_o have_v the_o devil_n but_o little_a now_o bless_v be_v christ_n the_o devil_n can_v bring_v death_n at_o his_o pleasure_n to_o our_o door_n job_n life_n be_v not_o commit_v to_o his_o cruel_a mercy_n he_o have_v no_o power_n to_o kill_v he_o true_o wicked_a man_n have_v power_n when_o god_n permit_v to_o kill_v the_o body_n and_o what_o have_v the_o devil_n more_o by_o the_o power_n of_o death_n here_o attribute_v to_o the_o devil_n be_v mean_v only_o his_o forcible_a temptation_n by_o which_o he_o convey_v many_o ugly_a form_n and_o

and_o he_o have_v of_o himself_o malice_n power_n and_o wit_n enough_o to_o bring_v death_n near_o and_o to_o lay_v its_o rough_a hand_n upon_o the_o sore_a place_n of_o a_o sinner_n wound_v conscience_n yea_o he_o have_v beside_o even_o all_o that_o power_n and_o strength_n of_o death_n sting_n in_o his_o hand_n which_o death_n receive_v from_o the_o condemn_v law_n but_o now_o though_o the_o wicked_a be_v often_o lay_v open_a to_o the_o devil_n cruel_a mercy_n yet_o little_a it_o be_v that_o he_o can_v do_v against_o christ_n people_n because_o christ_n have_v destroy_v the_o devil_n and_o this_o his_o power_n christ_n blood_n have_v cancel_v his_o commission_n or_o so_o contract_v and_o lessen_v it_o that_o when_o ever_o he_o assault_v a_o believer_n with_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n he_o know_v he_o must_v flee_v upon_o resistance_n resist_v the_o devil_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o he_o will_v flee_v from_o you_o he_o know_v he_o must_v have_v no_o commission_n to_o

i_o shall_v only_o add_v that_o this_o freedom_n from_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v a_o privilege_n christ_n have_v purchase_v for_o this_o present_a state_n for_o this_o life_n now_o what_o
