such_o a_o revelation_n as_o this_o and_o to_o be_v well_o dispose_v to_o receive_v it_o as_o come_v from_o god_n and_o this_o again_o render_v the_o say_v in_o the_o text_n still_o more_o credible_a when_o we_o thus_o consider_v what_o kind_n of_o salvation_n that_o be_v which_o christ_n jesus_n offer_v to_o sinner_n but_o because_o the_o main_a stress_n with_o respect_n to_o the_o intrinsic_a evidence_n of_o this_o say_v will_v lie_v upon_o what_o i_o have_v to_o offer_v upon_o the_o three_o general_a head_n i_o propose_v i_o therefore_o proceed_v to_o that_o design_v to_o insist_v more_o large_o and_o particular_o upon_o it_o viz._n to_o consider_v in_o what_o way_n and_o manner_n christ_n jesus_n by_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n have_v wrought_v out_o this_o salvation_n for_o sinner_n the_o nature_n of_o man_n and_o the_o condition_n of_o sinner_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v make_v it_o credible_a that_o god_n shall_v concern_v himself_o for_o their_o recovery_n it_o be_v also_o credible_a that_o if_o almighty_a god_n shall_v offer_v salvation_n to_o man_n it_o will_v be_v such_o a_o kind_n of_o salvation_n as_o i_o have_v be_v describe_v but_o beside_o all_o this_o the_o method_n in_o which_o our_o lord_n have_v obtain_v this_o salvation_n for_o we_o be_v so_o excellent_a in_o itself_o so_o suitable_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n so_o agreeable_a to_o all_o just_a apprehension_n both_o concern_v god_n and_o ourselves_o so_o well_o accommodate_v to_o our_o necessity_n and_o our_o reasonable_a desire_n that_o i_o be_o very_o persuade_v nothing_o but_o a_o want_n of_o understand_v it_o can_v occasion_v any_o reasonable_a man_n to_o hesitate_n at_o the_o belief_n of_o it_o i_o be_o very_o sensible_a before_o i_o enter_v upon_o this_o argument_n that_o we_o ignorant_a and_o weak_a creature_n be_v not_o able_a to_o account_v for_o the_o work_n of_o our_o maker_n even_o the_o least_o of_o his_o work_n in_o creation_n and_o providence_n infinite_o exceed_v our_o comprehension_n and_o much_o more_o the_o wonder_n of_o our_o redemption_n by_o jesus_n christ_n we_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o dive_v into_o all_o the_o depth_n of_o this_o admirable_a dispensation_n nor_o of_o spy_v out_o all_o the_o reason_n and_o excellency_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o so_o much_o we_o may_v discern_v as_o may_v cause_v we_o just_o to_o admire_v and_o adore_v the_o divine_a perfection_n display_v therein_o and_o may_v strong_o incline_v we_o to_o believe_v the_o divinity_n of_o this_o revelation_n even_o before_o we_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o external_a attestation_n which_o it_o have_v receive_v from_o god_n this_o therefore_o be_v next_o in_o order_n to_o be_v do_v viz._n to_o contemplate_v the_o method_n in_o which_o christ_n jesus_n by_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n save_v sinner_n and_o with_o modesty_n and_o reverence_n to_o inquire_v into_o the_o way_n and_o manner_n of_o our_o salvation_n by_o the_o gospel_n now_o the_o most_o comprehensive_a notion_n we_o can_v frame_v to_o ourselves_o of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n undertake_n be_v that_o he_o act_v as_o a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o therefore_o by_o consider_v what_o the_o office_n of_o a_o mediator_n be_v and_o how_o our_o lord_n execute_v that_o office_n we_o shall_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o understand_v the_o method_n of_o our_o salvation_n by_o he_o that_o our_o lord_n sustain_v the_o character_n of_o a_o mediator_n be_v evident_a from_o the_o account_n we_o have_v of_o his_o undertake_n throughout_o the_o scripture_n
