With the doing away of the first, and the establishment of the second, and likewise the mediatorship of Christ in the New Covenant, with some principles, duties, promises, and priviledges of the New Covenant.

from_o scripture_n 2._o from_o reason_n ground_v upon_o scripture_n 1._o from_o scripture_n the_o word_n of_o christ_n be_v full_a and_o plain_a in_o this_o matter_n john_n 14._o 16._o i_o will_v

seem_v that_o christ_n will_v not_o pray_v vocal_o for_o his_o people_n in_o heaven_n answ_n this_o be_v right_o understand_v no_o whit_n derogate_v from_o the_o truth_n in_o hand_n or_o the_o former_a promise_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o will_v pray_v the_o father_n for_o his_o people_n when_o he_o come_v to_o heaven_n but_o rather_o confirm_v the_o truth_n thereof_o it_o be_v usual_a in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o when_o any_o thing_n of_o special_a concernment_n follow_v that_o which_o go_v before_o be_v express_v with_o a_o not_o not_o to_o deny_v the_o thing_n but_o to_o

as_o the_o other_o instance_n be_v john_n 6._o 27._o labour_v not_o for_o the_o meat_n that_o perish_v but_o for_o that_o meat_n which_o endure_v to_o eternal_a life_n do_v christ_n in_o this_o

i_o be_v not_o send_v to_o baptize_v but_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n that_o be_v not_o only_o or_o chief_o send_v to_o baptize_v 1_o tim._n 2._o 14._o adam_n be_v not_o deceive_v but_o the_o

adam_n sin_v not_o alone_o nor_o be_v first_o in_o the_o transgression_n now_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o woman_n and_o appli_v the_o woman_n sin_n to_o woman_n and_o say_v adam_n be_v not_o deceive_v woman_n shall_v know_v that_o not_o only_a adam_n sin_v but_o the_o woman_n sin_v and_o be_v first_o in_o the_o transgression_n too_o so_o that_o these_o instance_n may_v serve_v to_o clear_v up_o our_o understanding_n of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n i_o say_v not_o that_o i_o will_v pray_v for_o you_o that_o be_v i_o say_v not_o only_o that_o i_o will_v pray_v for_o you_o but_o as_o a_o far_a ground_n of_o strong_a consolation_n the_o father_n himself_o love_v you_o by_o which_o i_o be_o sure_a to_o prevail_v in_o what_o i_o pray_v for_o and_o this_o be_v evident_a for_o
