blood_n 3.25_o be_v to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a through_o the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n v_o 25._o to_o declare_v i_o say_v at_o this_o

not_o be_v do_v by_o man_n or_o angel_n nor_o as_o a_o simple_a act_n of_o god_n mercy_n without_o the_o impeachment_n of_o his_o holiness_n truth_n and_o justice_n etc._n etc._n can_v not_o be_v do_v

that_o be_v can_v come_v to_o have_v peace_n with_o god_n any_o other_o way_n but_o by_o i_o by_o my_o death_n or_o through_o my_o blood_n nor_o without_o believe_v or_o depend_v upon_o i_o for_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o the_o adult_n 5._o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n of_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o therefore_o a_o necessity_n of_o christ_n mediation_n because_o without_o the_o shed_n of_o

our_o peace_n be_v make_v alone_o by_o he_o but_o this_o be_v so_o therefore_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o christ_n mediation_n in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o will_v inquire_v what_o be_v

have_v do_v he_o what_o answer_v think_v you_o can_v they_o have_v make_v alas_o no_o mere_a create_v be_v can_v resolve_v such_o a_o question_n 2._o he_o that_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o this_o covenant_n or_o that_o make_v our_o peace_n must_v not_o only_o know_v what_o will_v do_v it_o but_o also_o he_o must_v be_v able_a to_o answer_v all_o god_n demand_n both_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o law_n and_o justice_n and_o also_o be_v able_a to_o supply_v all_o our_o want_n and_o necessity_n he_o must_v seek_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o bless_a god_n and_o equal_o seek_v and_o be_v able_a to_o relieve_v poor_a sinner_n and_o none_o but_o jesus_n christ_n can_v do_v this_o who_o be_v a_o indifferent_a person_n or_o one_o equal_o relate_v unto_o both_o he_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o person_n 1._o he_o be_v god_n the_o one_o and_o the_o same_o eternal_a god_n he_o can_v not_o know_v what_o concern_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n and_o therefore_o will_v not_o can_v not_o

be_v able_a also_o to_o supply_v they_o this_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o next_o particular_a iii_o covenant_n the_o mediator_n of_o this_o covenant_n must_v therefore_o be_v every_o way_n suitable_o qualify_v or_o capacitate_v for_o this_o work_n and_o mediatorship_n and_o to_o this_o end_n i_o say_v he_o must_v be_v god_n nay_o god_n in_o our_o nature_n for_o a_o mere_a man_n can_v not_o satisfy_v infinite_a justice_n his_o obedience_n or_o suffering_n else_o can_v not_o therefore_o have_v be_v meritorious_a for_o it_o be_v from_o the_o union_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n with_o the_o humane_a that_o put_v such_o a_o worth_n or_o meritorious_a efficacy_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n i_o say_v jesus_n christ_n our_o mediator_n must_v be_v god_n god_n 1._o because_o those_o evil_n which_o he_o be_v to_o expiate_v can_v never_o be_v take_v away_o by_o any_o person_n that_o be_v not_o god_n or_o who_o sacrifice_n or_o atonement_n have_v not_o a_o infinite_a worth_n and_o satisfaction_n in_o it_o because_o sin_n be_v against_o the_o infinite_a majesty_n of_o heaven_n 2._o jesus_n christ_n as_o mediator_n must_v be_v god_n because_o otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o sustain_v or_o bear_v in_o his_o body_n and_o soul_n that_o great_a weight_n of_o sin_n and_o wrath_n lay_v upon_o he_o for_o if_o but_o the_o guilt_n of_o one_o sin_n be_v lay_v on_o any_o mere_a

when_o lay_v upon_o he_o have_v he_o not_o be_v god_n but_o a_o mere_a man._n how_o do_v david_n cry_v out_o of_o the_o burden_n of_o his_o sin_n 4._o my_o iniquity_n be_v go_v over_o my_o head_n as_o a_o heavy_a burden_n they_o be_v too_o heavy_a for_o i_o nay_o my_o brethren_n when_o our_o sin_n be_v lay_v upon_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o he_o begin_v to_o bear_v and_o feel_v the_o

tarry_v you_o here_o and_o watch_v and_o he_o go_v forward_o a_o little_a and_o fall_v on_o the_o ground_n the_o weight_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o
of_o his_o son_n as_o mediator_n for_o though_o the_o father_n may_v make_v the_o first_o proposal_n of_o this_o to_o his_o son_n yet_o it_o be_v by_o christ_n undertake_v that_o god_n be_v pacify_v

of_o one_o the_o free-gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n 19_o for_o as_o by_o one_o man_n disobedience_n many_o be_v make_v sinner_n so_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o shall_v many_o be_v make_v righteous_a as_o adam_n bring_v we_o into_o debt_n and_o make_v we_o obnoxious_a to_o divine_a wrath_n so_o jesus_n christ_n have_v pay_v our_o debt_n by_o his_o

whereof_o he_o have_v give_v assurance_n to_o all_o man_n in_o that_o he_o have_v raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a the_o mediator_n of_o this_o peace_n shall_v judge_v all_o man_n he_o shall_v

suretyship_n of_o christ._n application_n 1._o we_o infer_v from_o hence_o that_o sin_n be_v exceed_o sinful_a o_o what_o evil_a be_v there_o in_o sin_n that_o nothing_o can_v atone_v for_o it_o nor_o

love_n to_o we_o in_o christ_n be_v a_o amaze_a and_o wonderful_a love_n our_o peace_n shall_v be_v make_v though_o it_o cost_v god_n the_o blood_n of_o his_o own_o dear_a and_o belove_a son_n god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n how_o be_v that_o 3.16_o who_o can_v conceive_v of_o the_o greatness_n of_o it_o even_o so_o as_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n to_o die_v for_o we_o even_o for_o his_o enemy_n 9_o god_n commend_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o while_o we_o be_v yet_o sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o for_o when_o we_o be_v enemy_n we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n not_o that_o god_n be_v only_o reconcileable_a but_o by_o that_o sacrifice_n god_n be_v reconcile_v our_o faith_n do_v not_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o but_o we_o thereby_o receive_v the_o atonement_n or_o the_o blessing_n of_o peace_n and_o reconciliation_n 3._o we_o infer_v likewise_o from_o hence_o that_o the_o love_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v wonderful_a and_o his_o condescension_n exceed_v great_a what_o do_v god_n take_v our_o nature_n into_o union_n with_o
trading_n 1.4.6_o because_o his_o house_n lie_v waste_v they_o mind_v not_o this_o trade_n also_o know_v the_o more_o you_o venture_v the_o great_a return_v you_o will_v have_v the_o more_o you_o do_v
