these_o if_o faith_n be_v right_o ground_v it_o must_v come_v to_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o david_n first_o of_o all_o it_o confess_v that_o christ_n be_v man_n 〈◊〉_d well_o as_o god_n

again_o in_o our_o nature_n and_o ascend_v in_o our_o nature_n and_o sit_v in_o heaven_n with_o our_o nature_n true_a faith_n must_v come_v thus_o to_o christ_n or_o else_o it_o will_v not_o be_v find_v to_o be_v true_a faith_n true_a faith_n close_v with_o the_o humanity_n of_o christ_n believe_v that_o god_n take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n into_o union_n with_o the_o second_o person_n and_o so_o god_n and_o man_n make_v one_o person_n it_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o christ_n as_o take_v up_o a_o body_n for_o a_o time_n such_o a_o notion_n many_o man_n have_v in_o the_o world_n to_o conceive_v that_o christ_n do_v assume_v a_o body_n even_o as_o he_o do_v of_o old_a when_o as_o he_o do_v appear_v to_o the_o patriarch_n abraham_n and_o lot_n the_o angel_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o well_o as_o other_o angel_n do_v assume_v a_o body_n and_o so_o dissolve_v it_o again_o now_o say_v they_o as_o christ_n do_v assume_v a_o body_n for_o a_o time_n and_o appear_v in_o that_o and_o then_o afterward_o dissolve_v it_o now_o christ_n be_v no_o more_o in_o the_o body_n but_o he_o be_v now_o in_o the_o spirit_n this_o be_v a_o gross_a mistake_n christ_n a_o dangerous_a error_n that_o overthrow_v the_o foundation_n if_o christ_n do_v assume_v a_o body_n than_o he_o be_v not_o man_n but_o the_o scripture_n say_v he_o take_v our_o nature_n he_o take_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o angel_n but_o he_o take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o take_v up_o a_o body_n be_v not_o to_o take_v up_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n but_o he_o take_v our_o nature_n a_o soul_n and_o body_n together_o humane_a soul_n and_o body_n that_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n he_o take_v a_o body_n into_o union_n with_o the_o second_o person_n for_o so_o it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o body_n that_o christ_n take_v up_o but_o a_o soul_n too_o my_o soul_n be_v heavy_a to_o death_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o christ_n be_v make_v a_o offering_n for_o sin_n so_o that_o remember_v this_o how_o true_a faith_n must_v look_v upon_o christ_n first_o as_o lord_n and_o second_o as_o man_n as_o one_o that_o take_v our_o nature_n soul_n and_o body_n into_o union_n with_o himself_o second_o man_n i_o shall_v show_v you_o that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n that_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o expect_v salvation_n by_o christ_n shall_v believe_v that_o he_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o then_o that_o he_o die_v in_o our_o nature_n and_o rise_v in_o our_o nature_n and_o sit_v now_o in_o heaven_n in_o our_o nature_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v believe_v to_o salvation_n for_o first_o of_o all_o if_o this_o be_v not_o believe_v you_o can_v have_v any_o assurance_n that_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n shall_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n suppose_v that_o some_o confess_v that_o he_o be_v eternal_a god_n and_o do_v give_v satisfaction_n as_o he_o be_v eternal_a god_n you_o that_o body_n that_o he_o take_v up_o for_o a_o time_n if_o he_o take_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n can_v not_o satisfy_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n for_o justice_n must_v be_v satisfy_v in_o the_o same_o nature_n now_o if_o christ_n do_v not_o real_o take_v our_o nature_n and_o suffer_v in_o our_o nature_n there_o be_v no_o satisfaction_n and_o we_o can_v have_v no_o benefit_n thereby_o for_o satisfaction_n must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o same_o nature_n it_o offend_v second_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o you_o shall_v believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n rise_v again_o in_o the_o same_o nature_n for_o your_o justification_n
