throne_n of_o the_o most_o high_a that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v affect_v with_o his_o glorious_a majesty_n heaven_n also_o be_v the_o place_n where_o god_n do_v manifest_v his_o glory_n in_o a_o more_o

again_o if_o we_o allow_v he_o to_o conceive_v of_o a_o eternal_a and_o increated_a habitation_n for_o god_n i_o ask_v he_o whether_o we_o may_v imagine_v any_o space_n without_o those_o heaven_n if_o

indeed_o oppose_v the_o immensity_n and_o incomprehensibility_n of_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n if_o he_o say_v we_o be_v not_o to_o imagine_v he_o limit_v by_o these_o heaven_n then_o must_v he_o grant_v also_o that_o he_o be_v everlasting_o and_o essential_o present_a as_o well_o in_o the_o infinite_a space_n without_o they_o as_o within_o they_o for_o he_o be_v immutable_a how_o then_o

do_v not_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v unsound_a and_o unsafe_a he_o confess_v that_o in_o the_o term_n of_o increated_a they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o scripture_n but_o yet_o both_o here_o and_o in_o his_o body_n of_o divinity_n p._n 46_o 47._o he_o have_v discover_v the_o most_o glorious_a heaven_n such_o as_o the_o book_n of_o job_n or_o the_o psalm_n make_v no_o mention_n of_o for_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o heaven_n of_o heaven_n mention_v therein_o he_o affirm_v be_v pollute_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o man._n and_o mr._n collier_n do_v intimate_v to_o his_o reader_n as_o if_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o eternal_a god_n be_v not_o exalt_v above_o these_o most_o glorious_a heaven_n and_o that_o the_o most_o high_a god_n do_v not_o humble_a himself_o when_o he_o behold_v they_o

which_o be_v true_a but_o also_o because_o as_o he_o affirm_v the_o create_a heaven_n be_v all_o in_o a_o fall_v estate_n together_o with_o the_o earth_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n
