child_n job_n 1.6_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o christ_n be_v call_v god_n only_a son_n because_o he_o alone_o be_v his_o son_n by_o nature_n and_o eternal_a generation_n and_o none_o but_o he_o whereas_o the_o angel_n be_v his_o son_n but_o by_o creation_n as_o indeed_o be_v all_o the_o creature_n of_o the_o world_n beside_o and_o his_o elect_a and_o choose_a child_n by_o a_o more_o special_a grace_n of_o redemption_n and_o adoption_n as_o it_o be_v say_v as_o many_o as_o receive_v he_o to_o they_o he_o give_v power_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n even_o to_o they_o that_o believe_v in_o his_o name_n joh._n 1.12_o and_o again_o when_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v come_v god_n send_v forth_o his_o son_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n and_o make_v under_o the_o law_n that_o he_o may_v redeem_v they_o which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o we_o may_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o son_n gal._n 4.4_o 5_o verse_n and_o therefore_o as_o s._n john_n say_v behold_v what_o love_v the_o father_n have_v show_v on_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n 1_o joh._n 3.1_o so_o that_o as_o i_o say_v we_o be_v son_n indeed_o by_o grace_n and_o adoption_n but_o christ_n be_v his_o only_a son_n by_o nature_n and_o eternal_a generation_n as_o i_o say_v before_o and_o none_o but_o he_o and_o therefore_o unicus_fw-la dicitur_fw-la quia_fw-la nec_fw-la comparationem_fw-la recipit_fw-la cum_fw-la creaturis_fw-la nec_fw-la similitudinem_fw-la as_o s._n augustine_n speak_v he_o be_v call_v god_n only_a son_n because_o there_o be_v neither_o comparison_n nor_o resemblance_n betwixt_o his_o sonship_n and_o that_o of_o the_o creature_n he_o be_v a_o son_n of_o god_n own_o substance_n for_o ex_fw-la ore_fw-la altissimi_fw-la prodiâ—i_fw-la i_o come_v out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o most_o high_a primogenitus_fw-la be_v the_o first_o bear_v of_o all_o creature_n as_o ecclus._n 24.5_o and_o unigenitus_fw-la the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n as_o before_o out_o of_o joh._n 1.18_o a_o son_n then_o beget_v not_o create_v not_o of_o grace_n but_o nature_n before_o not_o in_o time_n as_o all_o the_o creature_n be_v and_o therefore_o a_o only_a son_n hereupon_o himself_o take_v his_o farewell_n of_o his_o disciple_n joh._n 20._o as_o mr._n hum._n sidenham_n have_v well_o observe_v he_o show_v they_o this_o intervallum_fw-la and_o distance_n between_o his_o generation_n and_o their_o adoption_n in_o say_v i_o go_v to_o my_o father_n and_o your_o father_n and_o to_o my_o god_n and_o your_o god_n not_o to_o our_o father_n but_o to_o i_o and_o you_o this_o separation_n imply_v a_o diversity_n and_o show_v that_o god_n be_v his_o father_n indeed_o but_o our_o creator_n and_o therefore_o he_o add_v my_o god_n and_o your_o god_n i_o by_o a_o privilege_n of_o nature_n you_o of_o grace_n my_o out_o of_o the_o womb_n as_o it_o be_v of_o everlastingness_n you_o out_o of_o the_o jaw_n of_o time_n and_o therefore_o see_v christ_n only_o be_v proper_o and_o true_o god_n son_n and_o none_o but_o he_o it_o may_v serve_v thus_o far_o to_o be_v a_o comfort_n and_o consolation_n unto_o we_o yea_o and_o to_o strengthen_v our_o trust_n in_o god_n in_o that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n have_v be_v so_o wonderful_a and_o his_o mercy_n so_o unspeakable_a towards_o we_o as_o that_o he_o have_v not_o spare_v his_o own_o and_o his_o only_a son_n for_o we_o as_o it_o be_v say_v god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v give_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n joh._n 3.16_o sufficit_fw-la pro_fw-la unico_fw-la the_o three_o and_o last_o circumstance_n be_v that_o he_o be_v call_v our_o lord_n and_o in_o jesus_n christ_n his_o only_a son_n our_o lord_n so_o say_v s._n paul_n to_o we_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n which_o be_v the_o father_n of_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n and_o we_o in_o he_o and_o one_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n and_o we_o by_o he_o 1_o cor._n 8.6_o and_o therefore_o he_o say_v of_o himself_o to_o his_o disciple_n you_o call_v i_o master_n and_o lord_n and_o you_o say_v well_o for_o so_o i_o be_o joh._n 13.13_o for_o god_n have_v make_v he_o both_o lord_n and_o christ_n this_o jesus_n who_o you_o have_v crucify_v say_v s._n peter_n act._n 2.36_o now_o this_o be_v as_o s._n augustine_n say_v because_o spoliavit_fw-la antiquo_fw-la hostem_fw-la singulari_fw-la dominio_fw-la svo_fw-la asciscit_fw-la nos_fw-la he_o have_v vanquish_v and_o overcome_v our_o old_a enemy_n the_o devil_n and_o spoil_v he_o of_o all_o principality_n and_o power_n he_o now_o rule_v and_o reign_v over_o we_o himself_o by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o word_n

and_o therefore_o may_v just_o challenge_v a_o lordship_n and_o dominion_n over_o we_o and_o this_o may_v serve_v first_o to_o comfort_v we_o that_o he_o be_v our_o lord_n and_o we_o abide_v under_o his_o protection_n we_o need_v not_o fear_v what_o any_o enemy_n whether_o spiritual_a or_o temporal_a whether_o devil_n or_o wicked_a man_n can_v do_v unto_o we_o for_o if_o god_n be_v on_o our_o side_n who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o say_v saint_n paul_n rom._n 8.31_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o fear_v they_o which_o can_v kill_v only_o the_o body_n but_o rather_o fear_v he_o which_o be_v able_a to_o destroy_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n in_o hell_n as_o it_o be_v say_v matth._n 10.28_o and_o indeed_o in_o the_o second_o place_n his_o lordship_n over_o we_o aught_o to_o beget_v a_o
