divide_v i_o will_v out_o of_o they_o raise_v this_o doctrinal_a proposition_n doctr._n namely_o that_o christ_n resurrection_n and_o exaltation_n be_v full_o as_o necessary_a and_o effectual_a to_o procure_v and_o perfect_v our_o salvation_n if_o not_o more_o than_o even_o the_o all-sufficient_a sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n 10._o which_o that_o i_o may_v more_o full_o and_o distinct_o

1._o that_o the_o purpose_n of_o christ_n who_o satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o covenant_n which_o he_o make_v with_o god_n who_o accept_v of_o this_o satisfaction_n be_v not_o that_o

unfeigned_a repentance_n for_o sin_n and_o a_o serious_a conversion_n unto_o god_n by_o faith_n the_o second_o that_o by_o the_o dominion_n and_o power_n of_o christ_n 2._o prop._n 2._o which_o at_o his_o resurrection_n and_o not_o before_o he_o receive_v as_o a_o reward_n of_o his_o great_a humility_n we_o be_v not_o only_o enable_v to_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o this_o new_a covenant_n and_o by_o consequence_n make_v capable_a of_o a_o actual_a application_n of_o his_o satisfaction_n but_o also_o by_o the_o same_o power_n we_o shall_v hereafter_o be_v raise_v up_o and_o exalt_v to_o everlasting_a happiness_n of_o these_o two_o proposition_n therefore_o in_o the_o order_n propose_v very_o brief_o and_o even_o too_o too_o plain_o and_o first_o of_o the_o first_o
