can_v in_o this_o short_a life_n but_o a_o life_n of_o ease_n sloth_n and_o pleasure_n be_v a_o bad_a preparation_n for_o death_n it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v allow_v rest_n to_o the_o age_a where_o

that_o shall_v not_o go_v unpunished_a say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n and_o this_o be_v further_a to_o be_v observe_v for_o encouragement_n that_o as_o god_n appoint_v every_o one_o their_o work_n for_o their_o day_n so_o if_o they_o be_v faithful_a he_o will_v spirit_n they_o for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o day_n if_o they_o give_v not_o themselves_o up_o to_o a_o life_n of_o ease_n sloth_n and_o pleasure_n he_o will_v spirit_n they_o to_o what_o he_o call_v they_o to_o in_o that_o day_n as_o you_o read_v of_o saul_n when_o god_n call_v he_o to_o be_v king_n it_o be_v say_v god_n give_v he_o another_o heart_n a_o public_a heart_n so_o you_o also_o read_v in_o number_n that_o when_o god_n appoint_v seventy_o elder_n to_o bear_v part_n of_o the_o government_n with_o moses_n it_o be_v

the_o ministration_n of_o his_o spirit_n read_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o 2_o cor._n 3._o 5._o we_o be_v not_o sufficient_a of_o ourselves_o all_z our_o sufficiency_n be_v of_o god_n who_o have_v make_v we_o able_a minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n so_o that_o god_n be_v never_o want_v in_o afford_v his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o mortal_a man_n for_o that_o which_o he_o call_v they_o to_o which_o be_v great_a encouragement_n to_o be_v do_v the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o our_o day_n moses_n and_o aaron_n be_v two_o great_a blessing_n to_o the_o people_n in_o their_o day_n though_o they_o can_v not_o continue_v long_o by_o reason_n of_o death_n and_o if_o we_o will_v have_v magistrate_n and_o minister_n to_o be_v blessing_n we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o god_n will_v spirit_n they_o for_o the_o work_n he_o have_v call_v they_o to_o but_o then_o there_o be_v another_o thing_n to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o priesthood_n mortality_n and_o that_o be_v their_o succession_n they_o can_v not_o continue_v by_o reason_n of_o death_n yet_o they_o have_v their_o succession_n one_o after_o another_o and_o we_o ought_v to_o pray_v that_o there_o may_v never_o want_v a_o succession_n of_o man_n to_o carry_v on_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v our_o care_n also_o as_o far_o as_o in_o we_o lie_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o generation_n bring_v up_o for_o the_o service_n of_o god_n when_o another_o go_v away_o when_o abraham_n die_v his_o son_n isaac_n succeed_v he_o when_o aaron_n die_v eleazar_n succeed_v his_o father_n and_o take_v up_o the_o work_n of_o god_n that_o his_o father_n have_v lay_v down_o so_o it_o will_v be_v the_o happiness_n of_o family_n and_o a_o happiness_n to_o child_n that_o child_n will_v take_v up_o the_o work_n that_o their_o father_n have_v lay_v down_o by_o reason_n of_o death_n we_o live_v in_o a_o age_n wherein_o there_o be_v a_o great_a decay_n of_o godly_a minister_n the_o old_a generation_n wear_v off_o and_o many_o go_v to_o the_o dust_n and_o but_o few_o come_v in_o that_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n the_o same_o grace_n and_o shine_v with_o the_o same_o light_n as_o their_o father_n do_v who_o be_v dead_a and_o go_v we_o ought_v all_o of_o we_o to_o pray_v as_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o as_o the_o harvest_n be_v great_a the_o lord_n will_v send_v forth_o labourer_n into_o his_o harvest_n a_o good_a succession_n speak_v a_o great_a favour_n of_o god_n to_o family_n church_n and_o nation_n see_v how_o careful_a moses_n be_v in_o that_o when_o god_n have_v tell_v he_o that_o he_o must_v die_v in_o numb_a 27._o 16._o let_v the_o lord_n the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n set_v a_o man_n over_o the_o congregation_n these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o moses_n when_o god_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o must_v die_v and_o be_v gather_v to_o his_o father_n and_o true_o so_o shall_v all_o godly_a parent_n and_o godly_a minister_n say_v let_v the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n bring_v in_o some_o to_o my_o family_n that_o may_v go_v out_o and_o in_o before_o my_o family_n and_o let_v the_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o flesh_n bring_v in_o some_o to_o his_o church_n to_o guide_v they_o and_o to_o teach_v they_o but_o now_o god_n he_o answer_v moses_n prayer_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o follow_a word_n and_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o moses_n take_v thou_o joshua_n the_o son_n of_o nun_n a_o man_n on_o who_o be_v the_o spirit_n lay_v thy_o hand_n upon_o he_o and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o mortality_n of_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n come_v we_o now_o to_o the_o second_o point_n and_o general_a observation_n and_o that_o be_v the_o immortality_n of_o our_o great_a high_a priest_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n here_o our_o chief_a comfort_n lie_v that_o though_o all_o mankind_n die_v and_o be_v not_o suffer_v to_o continue_v by_o reason_n of_o death_n but_o this_o man_n because_o he_o ever_o live_v have_v a_o unchangeable_a priesthood_n now_o what_o be_v speak_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o his_o abide_n for_o ever_o it_o must_v be_v understand_v and_o apply_v to_o he_o as_o man_n as_o he_o be_v man_n god-man_n and_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n as_o he_o be_v take_v from_o among_o man_n to_o stand_v for_o man_n in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o god_n and_o so_o he_o be_v the_o same_o yesterday_o to_o day_n and_o for_o ever_o he_o continue_v for_o ever_o and_o say_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n abide_v in_o the_o house_n for_o ever_o john_n 8._o 37._o the_o servant_n abide_v not_o in_o the_o house_n but_o the_o son_n abide_v for_o ever_o the_o house_n of_o god_n have_v the_o son_n of_o god_n always_o there_o as_o their_o highpriest_n he_o be_v set_v over_o they_o the_o very_a adversary_n of_o christ_n acknowledge_v this_o joh._n 12._o 35._o the_o people_n answer_v he_o we_o have_v hear_v out_o of_o the_o law_n that_o christ_n abide_v for_o ever_o it_o be_v a_o stumble_n to_o they_o and_o therefore_o here_o lie_v the_o objection_n how_o be_v it_o say_v that_o christ_n abide_v for_o ever_o and_o live_v for_o ever_o when_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o die_v we_o read_v in_o matth._n 2._o 50._o that_o he_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n he_o die_v and_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n how_o be_v it_o then_o say_v that_o he_o abide_v for_o ever_o and_o live_v for_o ever_o as_o our_o highpriest_n i_o answer_v to_o that_o we_o must_v consider_v four_o thing_n to_o clear_v that_o objection_n first_o of_o all_o though_o christ_n do_v die_v for_o a_o time_n yet_o his_o death_n be_v not_o such_o a_o force_a death_n as_o man_n be_v but_o a_o voluntary_a death_n he_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o take_v it_o up_o again_o of_o himself_o so_o you_o have_v it_o in_o john_n 10_o 17_o 18._o therefore_o do_v the_o father_n love_v i_o because_o i_o lay_v down_o my_o life_n that_o i_o may_v take_v it_o again_o no_o man_n take_v it_o from_o i_o but_o i_o lay_v it_o down_o of_o myself_o i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o i_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o again_o here_o you_o see_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o die_v as_o we_o die_v by_o a_o force_a death_n he_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o he_o take_v it_o up_o again_o when_o he_o please_v 2._o though_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o to_o his_o humanity_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n yet_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v hold_v of_o death_n or_o the_o grave_n act_v 2._o 24._o why_o not_o possible_a you_o see_v that_o man_n be_v hold_v of_o death_n thousand_o of_o year_n and_o they_o be_v not_o rise_v to_o this_o day_n why_o not_o possible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v hold_v of_o death_n why_o because_o the_o divine_a nature_n be_v hypostatical_o unite_v to_o the_o (null)_o nature_n god_n

bring_v we_o to_o this_o be_v the_o hope_n and_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o i_o do_v but_o touch_v upon_o these_o thing_n by_o the_o by_o now_o say_v the_o apostle_n he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a he_o carry_v it_o through_o now_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n to_o the_o uttermost_a be_v to_o do_v all_o that_o can_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v add_v to_o that_o thing_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v add_v to_o that_o work_n which_o be_v wrought_v to_o the_o uttermost_a so_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n in_o this_o salvation_n work_n he_o carry_v it_o thorough_a to_o the_o uttermost_a to_o the_o uttermost_a there_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v add_v to_o our_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o our_o protestant_a divine_n stand_v much_o upon_o this_o scripture_n against_o all_o popish_a adoration_n if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o merit_n meritorious_a work_n no_o need_n of_o priest_n oblation_n popish_a pardon_n and_o indulgence_n and_o if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a then_o away_o with_o all_o merit_n and_o all_o priest_n for_o oblation_n and_o all_o thing_n that_o the_o ignorant_a soul_n of_o man_n rest_v in_o he_o be_v able_a say_v the_o apostle_n to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a able_a to_o save_v that_o be_v a_o word_n of_o great_a emphasis_n christ_n be_v able_a to_o carry_v through_o the_o great_a work_n of_o salvation_n that_o be_v the_o point_n we_o be_v to_o insist_v upon_o the_o work_n of_o salvation_n be_v a_o great_a work_n it_o be_v a_o great_a work_n than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n for_o mind_v it_o the_o work_n of_o the_o great_a god_n some_o be_v great_a than_o other_o and_o this_o work_n of_o salvation_n be_v the_o great_a of_o all_o his_o work_n the_o work_n of_o creation_n be_v a_o great_a work_n and_o god_n wisdom_n his_o omnipotence_n and_o his_o goodness_n be_v much_o to_o be_v adore_v in_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n for_o the_o work_n in_o two_o respect_n 1._o as_o it_o be_v a_o work_n that_o all_o the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o sacred_a trinity_n in_o the_o godhead_n do_v cooperate_v and_o work_v together_o in_o god_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n create_v the_o world_n for_o though_o we_o say_v god_n the_o father_n be_v maker_n god_n the_o father_n have_v that_o work_n attribute_v to_o he_o not_o that_o he_o do_v it_o without_o his_o son_n and_o without_o the_o holy_a ghost_n heb._n 1._o 2._o it_o be_v say_v by_o jesus_n christ_n god_n make_v the_o world_n the_o son_n wrought_v with_o the_o father_n and_o you_o read_v in_o genesis_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n also_o move_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o deep_a so_o that_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o godhead_n father_n son_n and_o holy_a spirit_n a_o great_a work_n then_o again_o 2._o if_o you_o consider_v the_o work_n itself_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n be_v a_o great_a and_o wonderful_a work_n for_n mind_v it_o the_o great_a god_n to_o make_v all_o thing_n out_o of_o nothing_o this_o be_v a_o work_n that_o none_o but_o god_n can_v do_v for_o god_n to_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n angel_n and_o man_n and_o all_o live_a creature_n and_o all_o out_o of_o nothing_o it_o be_v a_o work_n of_o a_o infinite_a god_n for_o mind_v it_o the_o wise_a and_o the_o strong_a man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v make_v a_o house_n or_o a_o poor_a cottage_n out_o of_o nothing_o he_o must_v have_v matter_n to_o work_v upon_o man_n can_v make_v nothing_o out_o of_o nothing_o and_o therefore_o the_o philosopher_n take_v up_o this_o maxim_n nothing_n produce_v nothing_o you_o can_v make_v a_o thing_n out_o of_o nothing_o man_n can_v make_v one_o drop_n of_o water_n to_o drink_v out_o of_o nothing_o he_o must_v go_v somewhere_o for_o that_o water_n but_o for_o the_o great_a god_n to_o raise_v heaven_n and_o earth_n out_o of_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v adore_v and_o therefore_o say_v the_o psalmist_n when_o i_o consider_v the_o heaven_n the_o work_n of_o thy_o hand_n the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n i_o say_v what_o be_v man_n lord_n that_o thou_o shall_v be_v so_o mindful_a of_o he_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n be_v a_o great_a and_o glorious_a work_n beyond_o all_o the_o power_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n but_o still_o the_o work_n of_o salvation_n be_v great_a than_o that_o for_o god_n be_v please_v to_o magnify_v that_o work_n and_o to_o be_v at_o more_o cost_n about_o that_o work_n than_o he_o be_v about_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o in_o two_o respect_n the_o work_n of_o salvation_n be_v great_a than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n first_o because_o in_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n there_o be_v nothing_o to_o resist_v god_n in_o that_o work_n there_o be_v no_o devil_n then_o in_o be_v to_o rebel_n against_o that_o work_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o wicked_a reprobate_a person_n to_o resist_v god_n in_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n but_o in_o the_o work_n of_o salvation_n man_n and_o devil_n oppose_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n and_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n but_o he_o carry_v it_o through_o all_o opposition_n second_o though_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n be_v a_o great_a work_n of_o god_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o need_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a in_o the_o flesh_n for_o that_o work_n the_o work_n of_o creation_n can_v be_v carry_v on_o without_o the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n god_n do_v but_o say_v let_v there_o be_v light_n and_o there_o be_v light_a god_n word_n do_v all_o there_o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v the_o world_n be_v make_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n heb._n 11._o 3._o but_o when_o god_n come_v to_o work_v salvation_n for_o mankind_n there_o be_v a_o great_a train_n of_o work_n the_o son_n of_o god_n must_v be_v make_v man_n and_o suffer_v death_n for_o poor_a man_n and_o he_o must_v rise_v again_o so_o that_o the_o work_n of_o salvation_n be_v great_a than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n but_o how_o be_v christ_n say_v to_o be_v able_a to_o save_v and_o to_o carry_v on_o this_o work_n first_o as_o he_o be_v god_n the_o almighty_a god_n so_o nothing_o can_v stand_v before_o he_o to_o hinder_v the_o accomplishment_n of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v undertake_v to_o save_v a_o soul_n from_o death_n where_o christ_n undertake_v for_o that_o all_o the_o power_n of_o hell_n can_v hinder_v it_o if_o he_o have_v be_v but_o a_o mere_a man_n he_o have_v be_v stop_v in_o this_o work_n man_n and_o devil_n will_v have_v hinder_v he_o in_o this_o work_n i_o say_v reprobate_a man_n and_o devil_n will_v have_v hinder_v he_o in_o this_o work_n but_o be_v god_n he_o triumph_n over_o principality_n and_o power_n as_o you_o have_v it_o in_o col._n 2._o 15._o he_o spoil_v principality_n and_o power_n these_o principality_n and_o power_n be_v the_o devil_n which_o reign_n in_o their_o kingdom_n as_o prince_n and_o potentate_n do_v here_o on_o earth_n but_o the_o devil_n themselves_o dread_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o you_o may_v see_v mat._n 8._o 29._o they_o cry_v out_o what_o have_v we_o to_o do_v with_o thou_o jesus_n thou_o son_n of_o god_n be_v thou_o come_v to_o torment_v we_o before_o the_o time_n they_o know_v he_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o they_o beg_v leave_v of_o he_o to_o go_v into_o the_o herd_n of_o swine_n thus_o you_o see_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v god_n have_v power_n to_o overcome_v all_o the_o devil_n in_o hell_n therefore_o he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v they_o for_o the_o devil_n dread_v christ_n and_o say_v be_v thou_o come_v to_o torment_v we_o before_o the_o time_n they_o know_v christ_n will_v come_v to_o judge_v they_o one_o day_n and_o they_o be_v unwilling_a to_o come_v to_o judgement_n before_o their_o time_n now_o as_o he_o be_v the_o mighty_a god_n and_o as_o all_o the_o

second_o he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v as_o he_o be_v our_o great_a highpriest_n over_o the_o house_n of_o god_n that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v we_o to_o keep_v our_o eye_n upon_o as_o he_o be_v the_o priest_n of_o god_n all_o the_o priest_n before_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o save_v they_o that_o come_v to_o god_n by_o they_o though_o they_o do_v good_a service_n and_o be_v useful_a in_o
