our_o mediator_n have_v take_v unto_o he_o our_o flesh_n for_o the_o flesh_n which_o we_o do_v now_o bear_v about_o we_o subject_v to_o corruption_n be_v already_o 15._o raise_v up_o in_o christ_n

so_o that_o be_v like_a unto_o christ_n our_o brother_n we_o may_v enjoy_v with_o he_o eternal_a joy_n and_o salvation_n this_o thing_n paul_n purpose_v to_o show_v 1._o cor._n 15._o when_o he_o say_v

the_o same_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o us._n let_v we_o continual_o in_o our_o heart_n bear_v about_o with_o we_o these_o cause_n that_o we_o may_v be_v stir_v up_o to_o earnest_a thankfulness_n

possession_n of_o salvation_n and_o life_n everlasting_a of_o the_o four_o point_n or_o chapter_n the_o four_o thing_n which_o i_o say_v be_v to_o be_v consider_v in_o messiah_n be_v that_o he_o be_v one_o person_n and_o why_o this_o thing_n be_v needful_a that_o our_o mediator_n be_v one_o person_n beside_o many_o other_o these_o thing_n do_v confirm_v john_n 1_o the_o word_n become_v flesh_n

thing_n even_o as_o the_o symbol_n of_o athanasius_n have_v in_o this_o manner_n the_o right_a faith_n be_v that_o we_o believe_v and_o confess_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v god_n and_o man_n god_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o his_o father_n beget_v before_o the_o world_n and_o man_z of_o the_o substance_n of_o his_o mother_n bear_v in_o the_o world_n perfect_a

his_o manhood_n who_o although_o he_o be_v god_n and_o man_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o two_o but_z one_z christ_n one_o not_o by_o conversion_n of_o the_o godhead_n into_o flesh_n but_o by_o take_v the_o manhood_n into_o god._n one_o altogether_o not_o by_o confusion_n of_o substance_n but_o by_o unity_n of_o person_n for_o as_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n and_o flesh_n be_v one_o man_n so_o god_n and_o man_n be_v one_o christ_n but_o why_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o mediator_n shall_v be_v one_o person_n and_o not_o two_o as_o there_o be_v in_o he_o two_o distinct_a nature_n there_o be_v many_o weighty_a reason_n certain_a of_o the_o chief_a of_o which_o it_o may_v suffice_v to_o note_v in_o this_o place_n first_o our_o mediator_n god_n and_o man_n must_v be_v one_o person_n that_o he_o may_v make_v god_n and_o man_n one_z therefore_o he_o be_v join_v to_o the_o father_n by_o his_o true_a god_n head_n &_o unto_o man_n by_o true_a manhood_n that_o so_o he_o may_v couple_v both_o together_o the_o second_o cause_n the_o mediator_n shall_v bring_v nothing_o to_o pass_v between_o the_o party_n at_o variance_n if_o he_o cleave_v to_o the_o one_o and_o differ_v from_o the_o other_o wherefore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o the_o mediator_n by_o a_o certain_a necessity_n shall_v be_v join_v to_o both_o party_n to_o god_n therefore_o who_o by_o our_o sin_n be_v offend_v our_o mediator_n be_v join_v by_o true_a divinity_n and_o unto_o man_z he_o be_v associate_v by_o true_a humanity_n that_o through_o the_o society_n which_o he_o have_v with_o both_o part_n he_o may_v join_v both_o part_n together_o according_a to_o that_o say_n of_o irenaeus_n lib._n 3._o cap._n 2._o where_o he_o intreat_v of_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o word_n of_o god_n become_v flesh_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v say_v he_o that_o the_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o nigh_o affinity_n to_o both_o part_n must_v reduce_v both_o into_o friendship_n and_o concord_n and_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n shall_v take_v man_n unto_o he_o and_o man_n shall_v yield_v over_o himself_o unto_o god_n and_o theodoretus_n say_v even_o as_o he_o 1._o which_o will_v reconcile_v some_o two_o person_n join_v hand_n between_o themselves_o put_v himself_o in_o the_o midst_n between_o and_o hold_v the_o one_o by_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o the_o other_o by_o the_o left_a bring_v &_o join_v they_o in_o friendship_n together_o so_o he_o when_o he_o have_v unite_v the_o divine_a nature_n to_o the_o humane_a make_v a_o peace_n inviolable_a and_o which_o can_v be_v break_v the_o three_o cause_n if_o the_o mediator_n be_v not_o one_o person_n then_o the_o work_n of_o the_o redemption_n wrought_v in_o the_o humane_a nature_n shall_v not_o be_v a_o sufficient_a price_n for_o sin_n through_o which_o the_o infinite_a goodness_n be_v offend_v for_o death_n be_v due_a debt_n for_o sin_n but_o pure_a god_n can_v not_o taste_v death_n neither_o man_n alone_o can_v overcome_v death_n therefore_o god_n become_v man_n that_o god_n and_o man_n both_o shall_v and_o may_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o eternal_a death_n which_o be_v due_a to_o mankind_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n therefore_o take_v man_n nature_n unto_o he_o into_o the_o unity_n of_o person_n that_o the_o work_v do_v in_o the_o humane_a nature_n may_v be_v of_o infinite_a power_n and_o merit_n for_o through_o the_o indivisible_a union_n of_o the_o divine_a and_o humane_a nature_n in_o one_o person_n the_o dignity_n be_v infinite_a the_o perfection_n most_o absolute_a
