in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v save_v this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n the_o gospel_n teach_v we_o and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o his_o suffering_n which_o do_v not_o only_o free_v we_o from_o this_o eternal_a torment_n but_o reward_v we_o with_o eternal_a glory_n i_o may_v here_o tell_v you_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o tongue_n of_o man_n or_o angel_n to_o speak_v it_o what_o great_a advantage_n by_o this_o saviour_n we_o enjoy_v i_o may_v press_v the_o reasonableness_n of_o this_o command_n from_o the_o infinite_a reward_n that_o follow_v it_o i_o may_v prove_v to_o you_o that_o nothing_o but_o a_o immortal_a happiness_n can_v satisfy_v a_o immortal_a soul_n and_o that_o spiritual_a enjoyment_n can_v only_o fill_v our_o spirit_n when_o they_o be_v free_v from_o the_o clog_n of_o sin_n and_o corruption_n which_o in_o this_o world_n attend_v our_o body_n i_o may_v show_v you_o that_o as_o the_o spirituality_n of_o the_o precept_n declare_v the_o excellency_n of_o christianity_n above_o other_o religion_n in_o the_o obedience_n it_o require_v so_o the_o spirituality_n of_o the_o promise_n do_v evidence_n the_o excellency_n of_o it_o in_o the_o reward_n that_o follow_v it_o but_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o will_v not_o particularize_v on_o these_o head_n which_o every_o pious_a christian_a by_o his_o own_o meditation_n and_o diligent_a consideration_n may_v for_o his_o particular_a benefit_n advance_v to_o a_o high_a pitch_n than_o i_o be_o able_a that_o which_o now_o only_o remain_v to_o be_v prove_v be_v that_o this_o jesus_n be_v this_o lawgiver_n that_o this_o christ_n that_o do_v suffer_v be_v this_o infinite_a god_n and_o this_o i_o shall_v do_v from_o the_o several_a argument_n that_o convince_v the_o world_n to_o be_v christian_n i_o shall_v not_o here_o in_o this_o argument_n keep_v so_o strict_o to_o the_o prove_v christ_n to_o be_v that_o lawgiver_n but_o i_o shall_v handle_v here_o more_o large_o all_o the_o confirmation_n that_o assert_v either_o that_o proposition_n or_o confirm_v and_o increase_v the_o christian_a faith_n and_o these_o i_o shall_v reduce_v to_o three_o head_n these_o be_v 1._o the_o witness_n of_o god_n 2._o the_o miraculous_a power_n of_o do_v miracle_n in_o our_o saviour_n and_o by_o he_o give_v to_o christian_n together_o with_o the_o success_n follow_v this_o the_o destruction_n of_o idolatry_n and_o sudden_a conquest_n of_o the_o world_n 3._o the_o holy_a life_n and_o wonderful_a suffering_n of_o christian_n of_o each_o of_o these_o in_o order_n 1._o the_o witness_n of_o god_n under_o this_o head_n i_o may_v again_o repeat_v those_o several_a prophecy_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o then_o design_v the_o messiah_n and_o be_v fulfil_v in_o our_o jesus_n i_o may_v tell_v you_o the_o angel_n salutation_n to_o the_o bless_a virgin_n 1._o luke_n 1._o with_o his_o message_n send_v from_o god_n to_o she_o be_v both_o testimony_n from_o god_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v that_o lawgiver_n that_o messiah_n but_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o shall_v omit_v they_o and_o treat_v only_o of_o those_o two_o wonderful_a witness_n the_o star_n that_o direct_v the_o wise_a man_n to_o he_o and_o the_o voice_n from_o heaven_n that_o before_o a_o multitude_n audible_o declare_v he_o 1._o for_o the_o star_n that_o direct_v the_o wise_a man_n to_o he_o we_o have_v the_o whole_a story_n mat._n 2._o and_o in_o it_o we_o may_v see_v it_o be_v not_o a_o ordinary_a but_o a_o extraordinary_a star_n it_o be_v a_o star_n the_o wise_a man_n see_v afar_o off_o and_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o see_v it_o know_v it_o design_v the_o birth_n of_o the_o king_n of_o judab_n how_o these_o wise_a man_n shall_v come_v to_o know_v what_o this_o new_a and_o wonderful_a star_n design_v whether_o they_o attain_v it_o by_o a_o then_o particular_a divine_a revelation_n or_o else_o have_v receive_v a_o tradition_n from_o their_o ancestor_n concern_v such_o a_o appearance_n which_o perhaps_o be_v probable_a since_o we_o find_v baalam_n a_o prophet_n of_o their_o own_o nation_n foretell_v that_o there_o shall_v come_v a_o star_n out_o of_o jacob_n 24.17_o num._n 24.17_o and_o a_o sceptre_n shall_v arise_v out_o of_o israel_n which_o shall_v smite_v the_o corner_n of_o moab_n i_o shall_v not_o dispute_v since_o either_o of_o they_o be_v sufficient_a for_o my_o purpose_n this_o be_v most_o certain_a this_o new_a appearance_n be_v so_o wonderful_a that_o it_o persuade_v wise_a man_n to_o go_v a_o long_a journey_n to_o examine_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o and_o though_o till_o their_o come_n to_o jerusalem_n that_o city_n seem_v to_o have_v take_v no_o notice_n of_o it_o yet_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v so_o evident_a that_o upon_o the_o very_a question_n where_o be_v he_o that_o be_v bear_v king_n of_o the_o jew_n for_o we_o have_v see_v

shall_v be_v bear_v nay_o this_o be_v not_o all_o when_o these_o wiseman_n according_a to_o god_n direction_n deceive_v herod_n expectation_n by_o their_o return_n another_o way_n his_o anger_n end_v in_o cruelty_n and_o his_o passion_n can_v by_o no_o other_o medicine_n be_v expiate_v but_o by_o the_o slaughter_n of_o all_o the_o child_n from_o two_o year_n old_a and_o under_o about_o the_o coast_n of_o bethlehem_n the_o place_n they_o tell_v he_o that_o christ_n shall_v be_v bear_v i_o need_v not_o here_o tell_v you_o that_o this_o new_a star_n design_v our_o saviour_n since_o herod_n and_o all_o the_o jew_n understand_v it_o so_o since_o as_o it_o bring_v the_o wise_a man_n to_o jerusalem_n so_o it_o direct_v they_o to_o the_o place_n where_o the_o babe_n lie_v but_o i_o will_v
