cure_n so_o there_o can_v be_v no_o sweet_a peace_n then_o when_o mercy_n and_o peace_n meet_v together_o and_o when_o conscience_n and_o pe●ce_n kisle_v each_o other_o the_o former_a be_v the_o

if_o from_o christ_n how_o then_o from_o god_n the_o father_n answ_n it_o be_v a_o know_a rule_n thar_z the_o transient_a exernal_a work_n of_o god_n be_v attribute_v to_o all_o the_o three_o person_n

to_o the_o father_n so_o grace_n and_o peace_n be_v here_o ascribe_v both_o to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v they_o be_v both_o from_o mercy_n and_o from_o merit_n from_o mercy_n on_o god_n part_n to_o we_o from_o merit_n on_o christ_n part_n for_o we_o they_o be_v from_o god_n the_o father_n because_o he_o will_v they_o to_o we_o from_o god_n the_o son_n because_o he_o work_v they_o in_o we_o they_o be_v from_o god_n to_o christ_n from_o christ_n to_o we_o they_o be_v from_o god_n the_o father_n original_o and_o from_o christ_n derivative_o and_o to_o we_o actual_o god_n the_o father_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o peace_n christ_n as_o mediator_n be_v the_o conduit_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o peace_n man_n in_o union_n to_o christ_n be_v the_o cistern_n into_o which_o these_o stream_n of_o grace_n and_o peace_n run_v god_n will_v grace_n and_o peace_n to_o we_o and_o christ_n work_v they_o in_o we_o god_n give_v grace_n and_o peace_n to_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o creature_n this_o be_v from_o the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n but_o the_o application_n of_o this_o peace_n to_o the_o soul_n be_v from_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n the_o redeemer_n thus_o you_o see_v there_o be_v a_o double_a spring_n of_o this_o double_a blessing_n time_n will_v not_o serve_v i_o further_o the_o only_a observation_n be_v that_o all_o the_o grace_n and_o peace_n which_o believer_n share_v in_o be_v derive_v from_o god_n the_o father_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n these_o three_o thing_n

that_o it_o be_v not_o give_v out_o from_o god_n the_o father_n but_o through_o christ_n first_o that_o grace_n and_o peace_n be_v the_o saint_n privilege_n if_o grace_n be_v than_o peace_n be_v but_o grace_n be_v the_o privilege_n of_o every_o believer_n and_o that_o whether_o you_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o take_v from_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n to_o we_o this_o be_v the_o believer_n privilege_n god_n can_v as_o well_o forget_v christ_n at_o his_o right_a hand_n as_o cease_v his_o love_n and_o favour_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o believer_n the_o believer_n title_n to_o all_o their_o blessing_n arise_v out_o of_o this_o never-failing_a love_n of_o god_n or_o if_o you_o take_v grace_n for_o the_o fruit_n of_o god_n love_n to_o the_o soul_n still_o it_o fall_v to_o the_o believer_n privilege_n vocation_n justification_n adoption_n pardon_v of_o sin_n purge_v from_o sin_n strength_n against_o sin_n holiness_n love_n faith_n obedience_n perseverance_n all_o these_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o every_o believer_n nay_o a_o man_n can_v be_v a_o believer_n without_o any_o one_o of_o they_o they_o be_v as_o essential_a to_o the_o be_v of_o a_o christian_a as_o reason_n to_o the_o be_v of_o a_o man_n second_o as_o grace_v so_o peace_n be_v the_o believer_n privilege_n there_o be_v peace_n eternal_a peace_n supernal_a peace_n internal_a and_o peace_n external_n
