this_o history_n at_o large_a only_o we_o have_v thus_o far_o of_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o garden_n first_o how_o heavy_a ●_o weighty_a a_o thing_n sin_n be_v all_o this_o be_v not_o for_o his_o sin_n but_o for_o our_o sin_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n next_o you_o see_v how_o heavy_a a_o thing_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v that_o follow_v on_o sin_n for_o as_o jesus_n christ_n take_v on_o his_o back_n the_o burden_n of_o our_o sin_n so_o do_v he_o also_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o the_o punishment_n that_o follow_v upon_o sin_n if_o you_o know_v not_o this_o you_o know_v nothing_o of_o christ_n three_o you_o see_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n to_o man_n that_o first_o take_v on_o his_o back_n so_o heavy_a a_o burden_n of_o sin_n and_o second_o so_o heavy_a a_o burden_n of_o wrath_n and_o all_o for_o mankind_n if_o christ_n have_v not_o suffer_v never_o a_o man_n have_v be_v safe_a but_o these_o burden_n have_v press_v they_o down_o to_o hell_n never_o a_o soul_n have_v be_v save_v from_o adam_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n look_v then_o what_o love_n he_o have_v show_v to_o we_o and_o last_o this_o agony_n &_o suffering_n in_o the_o garden_n let_v we_o see_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v very_a god_n so_o he_o be_v very_a man_n also_o and_o that_o he_o have_v the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n &_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n for_o this_o suffering_n in_o the_o garden_n be_v especial_o in_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o battle_n the_o soul_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v especial_o set_v on_o by_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o father_n there_o be_v none_o touch_v the_o body_n of_o the_o lord_n at_o this_o time_n but_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o father_n be_v fight_v with_o the_o soul_n but_o to_o leave_v this_o and_o to_o mark_v the_o purpose_n of_o john_n his_o purpose_n be_v only_o to_o let_v you_o see_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n die_v he_o die_v with_o a_o great_a willingness_n and_o readiness_n that_o willing_o he_o go_v to_o death_n and_o be_v not_o draw_v out_o against_o his_o will_n but_o know_v that_o judas_n will_v come_v with_o a_o company_n of_o

of_o john_n to_o let_v we_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n offer_v up_o a_o voluntary_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n for_o except_o he_o have_v offer_v up_o a_o voluntary_a

the_o first_o thing_n we_o have_v to_o speak_v of_o be_v concern_v the_o two_o thief_n that_o be_v crucify_v with_o he_o the_o one_o at_o the_o one_o hand_n and_o the_o other_o at_o the_o other_o

one_o of_o they_o at_o his_o right_a hand_n and_o the_o other_o at_o his_o left_a hand_n and_o he_o hang_v on_o the_o cross_n in_o the_o midst_n between_o they_o both_o they_o crucify_v not_o the_o

you_o see_v that_o as_o the_o pain_n of_o the_o reprobate_n shall_v be_v extreme_a so_o the_o sh●me_n and_o confusion_n that_o they_o shall_v suffer_v in_o hell_n shall_v pass_v all_o measure_n in_o

to_o his_o justice_n it_o be_v he_o who_o be_v the_o chief_a worker_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n all_o the●e_n man_n pilate_n herode_fw-la the_o man_n of_o war_n and_o the_o high_a priest_n they_o

be_v extreme_a shame_n join_v with_o it_o now_o if_o the_o shame_n and_o pain_n be_v extreme_a it_o must_v follow_v that_o he_o bear_v a_o extreme_a but_o then_o of_o sin_n these_o go_v together_o in_o god_n justice_n extreme_a burden_n of_o sin_n extreme_a pain_n and_o extreme_a shame_n for_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v that_o extreme_a sin_n be_v punish_v by_o extreme_a pain_n and_o

short_o there_o may_v be_v a_o question_n move_v when_o the_o minister_n either_o remitte_v sin_n or_o retain_v sin_n upon_o earth_n how_o shall_v he_o be_v assure_v that_o y_o e_o lord_n have_v not_o
