brunt_n of_o all_o the_o world_n rage_n fall_v upon_o he_o let_v they_o along_o but_o after_o his_o ascension_n when_o the_o malice_n of_o satan_n and_o wicked_a man_n can_v not_o reach_v he_o than_o do_v the_o storm_n fall_v upon_o they_o hence_o learn_v 1._o that_o christ_n be_v so_o tender_a of_o his_o disciple_n weakness_n that_o he_o will_v not_o put_v they_o upon_o the_o hardship_n of_o suffering_n till_o they_o be_v train_v up_o and_o prepare_v for_o they_o 2._o that_o it_o may_v encourage_v the_o saint_n in_o and_o under_o their_o suffering_n that_o christ_n himself_o be_v the_o great_a object_n of_o the_o persecutor_n malice_n and_o they_o only_o so_o for_o his_o sake_n for_o can_v they_o reach_v he_o they_o will_v not_o concern_v themselves_o with_o they_o learn_v 3._o that_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n after_o long_a exemption_n and_o freedom_n from_o suffering_n must_v expect_v that_o storm_n will_v arise_v cloud_n gather_v thick_a and_o trial_n come_v on_o a_o pace_n and_o their_o be_v under_o one_o trial_n will_v not_o hide_v or_o shelter_v they_o from_o another_o 5_o but_o now_o i_o go_v my_o way_n to_o he_o that_o send_v i_o and_o none_o of_o you_o ask_v i_o whither_o go_v thou_o 6_o but_o because_o i_o have_v say_v these_o thing_n unto_o you_o sorrow_n have_v fill_v your_o heart_n observe_v here_o how_o our_o saviour_n again_o intimate_v to_o his_o disciple_n his_o speedy_a departure_n from_o they_o and_o reprove_v they_o for_o be_v so_o sad_a as_o it_o and_o concern_v for_o it_o without_o consider_v the_o end_n and_o design_n of_o it_o and_o the_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n they_o be_v to_o receive_v by_o it_o here_o we_o see_v how_o the_o disciple_n thought_n be_v whole_o take_v up_o about_o themselves_o what_o they_o shall_v do_v for_o want_v of_o christ_n bodily_a presence_n without_o be_v instant_n with_o he_o to_o know_v whither_o he_o be_v go_v and_o what_o benefit_n he_o shall_v reap_v and_o they_o may_v expect_v from_o his_o departure_n learn_v hence_o that_o christ_n disciple_n ought_v not_o so_o much_o to_o have_v lament_v the_o loss_n of_o his_o bodily_a presence_n as_o to_o have_v rejoice_v in_o his_o glorious_a exaltation_n and_o in_o their_o own_o advantage_n by_o his_o death_n resurrection_n and_o ascension_n none_o of_o you_o ask_v i_o whither_o go_v thou_o but_o sorrow_n have_v fill_v your_o heart_n 7_o nevertheless_o i_o tell_v you_o the_o truth_n it_o be_v expedient_a for_o you_o that_o i_o go_v away_o for_o if_o i_o go_v not_o away_o the_o comforter_n will_v not_o come_v unto_o you_o but_o if_o i_o depart_v i_o will_v send_v he_o unto_o you_o in_o these_o word_n our_o saviour_n urge_v his_o disciple_n to_o submit_v to_o his_o departure_n as_o that_o which_o will_v make_v way_n for_o his_o send_v the_o comforter_n to_o they_o which_o he_o assure_v they_o will_v be_v of_o more_o advantage_n to_o they_o than_o his_o own_o stay_n and_o continuance_n among_o they_o thence_o learn_v that_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n with_o we_o be_v a_o great_a comfort_n and_o advantage_n to_o we_o than_o the_o presence_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n among_o we_o christ_n bodily_a presence_n be_v comfortable_a but_o the_o spirit_n be_v more_o intimate_o a_o comforter_n than_o christ_n in_o his_o fleshly_a presence_n because_o the_o spirit_n can_v comfort_v all_o believer_n at_o once_o in_o all_o place_n but_o christ_n bodily_a presence_n can_v comfort_v but_o few_o and_o that_o in_o one_o place_n only_o at_o once_o christ_n do_v converse_v with_o his_o disciple_n outward_o but_o the_o spirit_n possess_v himself_o of_o their_o heart_n inward_o now_o for_o the_o spirit_n to_o dwell_v in_o we_o be_v more_o advantageous_a than_o to_o have_v christ_n dwell_v in_o the_o flesh_n among_o we_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n conversation_n be_v great_a but_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v renovation_n and_o holy_a inspiration_n be_v much_o great_a the_o one_o encourage_v and_o excite_v we_o to_o be_v holy_a but_o the_o other_o quicken_v and_o enable_v we_o to_o be_v holy_a therefore_o well_o may_v christ_n say_v it_o be_v expedient_a or_o high_o necessary_a and_o advantageous_a for_o you_o that_o i_o go_v away_o he_o subjoin_v a_o reason_n if_o i_o go_v not_o away_o the_o comforter_n will_v not_o come_v but_o if_o i_o depart_v i_o will_v send_v he_o to_o you_o whence_o we_o learn_v that_o christ_n ascension_n be_v indispensable_o necessary_a in_o order_n to_o the_o spirit_n be_v mission_n the_o spirit_n can_v not_o have_v descend_v if_o christ_n have_v not_o first_o ascend_v the_o spirit_n can_v not_o come_v but_o by_o the_o gift_n and_o mission_n of_o the_o mediator_n now_o the_o send_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o part_n of_o christ_n royalty_n as_o mediator_n it_o be_v not_o convenient_a that_o the_o spirit_n shall_v be_v send_v till_o christ_n be_v crown_v and_o sit_v down_o on_o his_o throne_n in_o his_o kingdom_n then_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o make_v application_n to_o we_o of_o the_o redemption_n purchase_v for_o we_o 8_o and_o when_o he_o be_v come_v he_o will_v reprove_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o judgement_n 9_o of_o sin_n because_o they_o believe_v not_o on_o i_o 10_o of_o righteousness_n because_o i_o go_v to_o my_o father_n and_o you_o see_v i_o no_o more_o 11_o of_o judgement_n because_o the_o prince_n of_o this_o world_n be_v judge_v in_o these_o and_o the_o follow_a verse_n our_o saviour_n acquaint_v his_o disciple_n with_o the_o advantage_n that_o will_v redound_v by_o the_o come_n of_o the_o comforter_n first_o the_o advantage_n to_o the_o world_n second_o to_o the_o apostle_n and_o three_o to_o himself_o to_o the_o world_n 1._o he_o shall_v

sin_n of_o unbelief_n learn_v hence_o 1._o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o conviction_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o all_o conviction_n of_o sin_n do_v either_o mediate_o or_o

the_o world_n of_o sin_n because_o they_o believe_v not_o on_o i_o second_o of_o righteousness_n that_o be_v of_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o all_o humane_a righteousness_n and_o of_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o a_o mediator_n by_o which_o alone_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v acceptance_n with_o god_n three_o of_o judgement_n that_o be_v the_o spirit_n shall_v convince_v the_o

the_o kingdom_n of_o darkness_n learn_v hence_o 1._o that_o satan_n be_v a_o prince_n who_o by_o unjust_a usurpation_n and_o the_o sinner_n voluntary_a consent_n have_v exercise_v a_o tyrannical_a

12_o i_o have_v yet_o many_o thing_n to_o say_v unto_o you_o but_o you_o can_v bear_v they_o now_o 13_o howbeit_o when_o he_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n be_v come_v he_o will_v guide_v you_o into_o
