but_o one_o stroke_n at_o a_o temptation_n it_o be_v go_v 12._o last_o the_o excellency_n of_o his_o person_n appear_v in_o this_o that_o he_o perform_v this_o work_n of_o our_o freedom_n with_o so_o much_o overplus_n according_a to_o that_o scripture_n which_o i_o have_v former_o quote_v rom._n 5._o 20._o where_o sin_n abound_v grace_n do_v much_o more_o abound_v if_o you_o shall_v lay_v our_o bondage_n in_o one_o scale_n of_o the_o balance_n and_o this_o freedom_n by_o christ_n in_o the_o other_o this_o will_v weigh_v that_o down_o to_o the_o ground_n this_o offer_v of_o christ_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o sinner_n that_o believe_v in_o he_o may_v be_v allude_v to_o from_o that_o in_o exod._n 36._o where_o you_o read_v that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n offer_v so_o much_o towards_o the_o service_n of_o the_o tabernacle_n that_o there_o be_v fain_o to_o be_v a_o proclamation_n throughout_o the_o camp_n that_o there_o be_v bring_v in_o more_o than_o enough_o and_o they_o

proclamation_n to_o stop_v any_o from_o do_v no_o more_o in_o a_o good_a work_n it_o be_v in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v true_a that_o our_o sin_n and_o want_n and_o misery_n be_v very_o great_a but_o this_o remedy_n for_o they_o be_v above_o they_o beyond_o all_o expression_n i_o have_v almost_o say_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o soul_n to_o be_v oversaved_a christ_n have_v do_v it_o it_o must_v needs_o have_v be_v a_o great_a comfort_n to_o believer_n when_o they_o have_v think_v of_o this_o freedom_n by_o christ_n if_o they_o can_v but_o have_v say_v this_o of_o it_o well_o bless_a be_v god_n there_o be_v enough_o though_o there_o be_v nothing_o over_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o want_v we_o have_v not_o a_o sin_n but_o he_o can_v pardon_v we_o have_v not_o a_o want_n but_o he_o can_v supply_v he_o have_v as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v need_v oh_o but_o there_o be_v much_o more_o comfort_n than_o so_o much_o more_o cause_n of_o rejoice_v for_o they_o for_o they_o may_v say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o they_o to_o take_v in_o what_o he_o be_v able_a to_o give_v out_o when_o the_o prodigal_a thought_n of_o his_o father_n house_n say_v he_o luke_o 15._o 17._o there_o be_v bread_n enough_o and_o to_o spare_v so_o when_o you_o think_v of_o christ_n you_o may_v say_v there_o be_v freedom_n enough_o and_o to_o spare_v and_o oh_o that_o god_n will_v help_v you_o poor_a sinner_n in_o the_o think_n of_o this_o to_o reflect_v upon_o yourselves_o as_o the_o prodigal_n do_v upon_o himself_o when_o he_o speak_v those_o word_n that_o there_o be_v in_o his_o father_n house_n bread_n enough_o and_o to_o spare_v and_o i_o perish_v with_o hunger_n say_v he_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v why_o then_o what_o do_v i_o do_v here_o in_o my_o undo_v famish_a condition_n why_o dont_fw-fr i_o go_v thither_o wretch_n that_o i_o be_o be_v not_o that_o a_o better_a place_n for_o i_o than_o this_o be_v he_o have_v through_o mercy_n such_o a_o sense_n of_o his_o present_a condition_n that_o he_o can_v not_o endure_v to_o be_v in_o it_o any_o long_o i_o will_v arise_v and_o go_v to_o my_o father_n etc._n etc._n vers_fw-la 18._o and_o when_o he_o come_v to_o he_o there_o he_o find_v enough_o and_o to_o spare_v indeed_o there_o be_v compassion_n in_o the_o father_n heart_n and_o run_v towards_o he_o when_o he_o see_v he_o and_o fall_v upon_o his_o neck_n and_o kiss_n of_o he_o and_o call_v for_o the_o best_a robe_n and_o for_o the_o ring_n and_o the_o shoe_n and_o for_o the_o fat_a calf_n to_o be_v kill_v so_o sir_n if_o you_o will_v come_v to_o christ_n once_o you_o will_v come_v to_o one_o that_o have_v enough_o and_o to_o spare_v there_o want_v but_o one_o thing_n which_o indeed_o be_v that_o which_o bring_v the_o prodigal_n home_o and_o the_o lord_n work_v it_o in_o you_o and_o that_o be_v he_o be_v grow_v so_o hungry_a that_o he_o think_v very_o he_o shall_v have_v perish_v oh_o that_o it_o be_v but_o come_v to_o this_o with_o you_o that_o be_v yet_o afar_o off_o that_o you_o have_v such_o a_o kind_n of_o hunger_n after_o christ_n and_o i_o will_v make_v no_o doubt_n but_o you_o also_o will_v quick_o say_v i_o will_v arise_v and_o go_v to_o he_o chap._n vii_o concern_v the_o excellent_a price_n with_o which_o this_o freedom_n be_v purchase_v the_o three_o thing_n for_o the_o make_v out_o the_o excellency_n of_o this_o freedom_n be_v the_o consideration_n of_o the_o excellent_a price_n with_o which_o it_o be_v purchase_v now_o that_o which_o i_o shall_v speak_v upon_o this_o shall_v be_v to_o open_v two_o thing_n 1._o that_o this_o freedom_n be_v purchase_v and_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v purchase_v with_o a_o excellent_a price_n 1._o this_o freedom_n be_v a_o purchase_a freedom_n person_n that_o be_v in_o bondage_n can_v come_v to_o be_v free_a but_o it_o must_v be_v by_o one_o of_o these_o way_n either_o their_o freedom_n must_v be_v give_v they_o or_o it_o must_v be_v buy_v and_o if_o it_o can_v be_v buy_v by_o thenselve_n than_o it_o must_v be_v by_o another_o for_o they_o now_o the_o truth_n be_v we_o come_v to_o have_v our_o freedom_n by_o christ_n both_o these_o way_n by_o gift_n in_o respect_n of_o we_o but_o by_o purchase_n in_o respect_n of_o christ_n or_o to_o express_v it_o a_o little_a otherwise_o it_o be_v give_v to_o we_o upon_o the_o account_n or_o consideration_n that_o it_o be_v purchase_v by_o christ_n for_o we_o and_o so_o it_o must_v be_v purchase_v by_o christ_n that_o it_o may_v be_v give_v to_o we_o see_v rom._n 3._o 24._o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n through_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n mark_v it_o come_v to_o we_o free_o and_o by_o grace_n that_o be_v as_o a_o mere_a gift_n which_o we_o can_v neither_o buy_v nor_o deserve_v but_o yet_o it_o be_v through_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n that_o be_v he_o purchase_v it_o for_o we_o and_o therefore_o eph._n 1._o 14._o all_o the_o company_n that_o do_v true_o belong_v to_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o purchase_a possession_n for_o so_o the_o best_a expositor_n do_v understand_v these_o word_n as_o nor_o mean_v of_o heaven_n or_o bless_a immortality_n but_o of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n not_o of_o the_o place_n of_o glory_n to_o which_o they_o shall_v come_v but_o of_o the_o people_n that_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o place_n they_o be_v a_o purchase_a possession_n so_o particular_o calvin_n upon_o the_o place_n and_o so_o 1_o cor._n 6._o 20._o when_o the_o apostle_n be_v stir_v of_o they_o up_o to_o glorify_v god_n in_o their_o body_n and_o in_o their_o spirit_n he_o make_v use_v of_o this_o argument_n that_o they_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n and_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o all_o those_o place_n of_o scripture_n in_o which_o believer_n be_v call_v servant_n of_o god_n and_o servant_n of_o christ_n particular_o see_v that_o place_n joh._n 12._o 26._o when_o you_o meet_v with_o this_o word_n as_o you_o may_v often_o you_o must_v understand_v of_o what_o kind_n of_o servant_n this_o be_v mean_v and_o for_o this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v among_o other_o division_n that_o may_v be_v make_v of_o they_o two_o sort_n of_o servant_n either_o hire_a servant_n that_o agree_v to_o dwell_v with_o such_o a_o master_n for_o such_o wage_n and_o for_o such_o a_o time_n and_o then_o be_v go_v again_o and_o and_o at_o their_o own_o dispose_n other_o there_o be_v that_o be_v buy_v servant_n buy_v with_o money_n as_o abraham_n have_v many_o of_o they_o in_o his_o house_n now_o these_o kind_n of_o servant_n be_v much_o more_o under_o the_o power_n and_o at_o the_o pleasure_n of_o their_o master_n than_o those_o who_o be_v but_o hire_v they_o may_v use_v a_o far_o great_a sovereignty_n over_o they_o now_o i_o say_v when_o you_o read_v that_o believer_n be_v call_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n you_o must_v understand_v it_o in_o this_o latter_a sense_n that_o they_o be_v his_o buy_a servant_n for_o christ_n do_v not_o care_n for_o hireling_n and_o so_o he_o have_v a_o full_a and_o absolute_a right_n to_o they_o as_o a_o man_n have_v to_o any_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v buy_v with_o his_o money_n now_o here_o i_o will_v a_o little_a answer_n to_o three_o question_n about_o this_o purchase_a freedom_n which_o may_v profitable_o be_v raise_v quest_n 1._o how_o can_v this_o freedom_n be_v say_v to_o be_v purchase_v for_o it_o may_v be_v many_o of_o we_o can_v tell_v
