necessity_n of_o christ_n his_o suffering_n three_o have_v hear_v the_o chief_a particular_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n we_o be_v now_o to_o consider_v the_o necessity_n of_o his_o suffering_n express_v here_o by_o christ_n himself_o in_o these_o word_n necessity_n that_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a necessity_n thus_o it_o behove_v christ_n to_o suffer_v touch_v which_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v three_o kind_n of_o necessity_n the_o first_o be_v a_o obsolute_a necessity_n as_o when_o a_o thing_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o can_v be_v otherwise_o so_o the_o sun_n move_v and_o the_o fire_n burn_v as_o we_o see_v necessary_o because_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o their_o nature_n so_o to_o do_v as_o it_o be_v for_o every_o light_a thing_n to_o ascend_v and_o for_o every_o heavy_a thing_n to_o descend_v downward_o towards_o the_o centre_n the_o second_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o constraint_n suffer_v that_o christ_n suffer_v because_o he_o willing_o give_v himself_o to_o suffer_v as_o when_o a_o malefactor_n be_v constrain_v and_o must_v necessary_o suffer_v whether_o he_o will_v or_o not_o because_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n have_v pass_v over_o he_o and_o his_o strength_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o save_v himself_o and_o in_o these_o two_o sense_n our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v not_o of_o necessity_n for_o to_o suffer_v because_o god_n may_v if_o he_o have_v will_v have_v use_v a_o 1000_o other_o way_n to_o have_v save_v man_n without_o the_o death_n of_o his_o only_a son_n and_o there_o be_v neither_o law_n to_o enjoin_v he_o nor_o any_o force_n that_o can_v compel_v he_o for_o to_o suffer_v for_o he_o say_v abba_n father_n all_o thing_n be_v possible_a unto_o thou_o and_o 14.36_o mark_v 14.36_o he_o can_v pray_v to_o his_o father_n and_o have_v more_o than_o twelve_o legion_n of_o angel_n to_o have_v assist_v he_o and_o therefore_o no_o absolute_a necessity_n that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v sed_fw-la oblatus_fw-la est_fw-la quia_fw-la voluit_fw-la but_o he_o be_v offer_v up_o for_o we_o because_o he_o will_v he_o give_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n 53.10_o esay_n 53.10_o &_o

he_o need_v not_o to_o have_v suffer_v justice_n can_v not_o seize_v upon_o he_o because_o he_o be_v a_o lamb_n without_o spot_n and_o constraint_n can_v not_o compel_v he_o because_o all_o thing_n be_v possible_a unto_o he_o and_o he_o have_v all_o the_o angel_n at_o his_o command_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o prophet_n esay_n say_v that_o he_o do_v bear_v the_o burden_n impose_v by_o his_o
