we_o therefore_o stand_v fast_o in_o our_o liberty_n we_o now_o come_v to_o the_o ten_o question_n quest_n 10_o how_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n give_v himself_o to_o abraham_n and_o his_o elect_a seed_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n for_o if_o god_n give_v himself_o he_o do_v not_o only_o give_v his_o nature_n but_o his_o person_n god_n the_o father_n give_v himself_o and_o god_n the_o son_n give_v himself_o and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n give_v himself_o unto_o the_o people_n of_o god_n joh._n 14.16_o 17._o i_o will_v pray_v the_o father_n and_o he_o shall_v give_v you_o another_o comforter_n that_o he_o may_v abide_v with_o you_o for_o ever_o even_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n who_o the_o world_n can_v receive_v because_o it_o see_v he_o not_o neither_o know_v he_o but_o you_o know_v he_o for_o he_o dwell_v with_o you_o and_o shall_v be_v in_o you_o if_o then_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v as_o well_o as_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n how_o be_v he_o give_v or_o how_o do_v he_o give_v himself_o unto_o the_o church_n and_o unto_o all_o the_o israel_n of_o god_n answ_n there_o be_v four_o several_a act_n or_o work_v whereby_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v to_o the_o church_n and_o to_o his_o people_n for_o though_o the_o lord_n jesus_n pray_v the_o father_n for_o he_o and_o the_o father_n send_v he_o and_o the_o son_n also_o send_v he_o joh._n 15.26_o yet_o the_o holy_a ghost_n himself_o do_v come_v upon_o his_o people_n act._n 2.2_o etc._n etc._n and_o he_o come_v by_o a_o fourfold_a act_n 1._o first_o by_o indwell_v or_o inhabitation_n in_o the_o church_n 2._o second_o by_o a_o act_n of_o sanctification_n 3._o three_o by_o a_o act_n of_o revelation_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v a_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n and_o that_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 4._o four_o by_o a_o act_n of_o consolation_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v the_o comforter_n 1._o first_o for_o inhabitation_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n ephes_n 2.22_o you_o be_v build_v together_o in_o christ_n for_o a_o habitation_n of_o god_n through_o the_o spirit_n in_o this_o respect_n also_o it_o be_v the_o apostle_n demand_v of_o the_o corinthian_n 1_o cor._n 3.16_o know_v you_o not_o that_o you_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o you_o so_o in_o the_o place_n fore-alledged_n joh._n 14.16_o 17._o and_o when_o he_o say_v dwell_v in_o you_o it_o note_v the_o constancy_n of_o his_o be_v in_o they_o he_o will_v abide_v in_o his_o dwell_a place_n so_o 1_o joh._n 2.27_o the_o anoint_v there_o promise_v be_v the_o spirit_n &_o great_a be_v the_o necessity_n of_o his_o indwelling_a in_o we_o for_o two_o principal_a reason_n the_o first_o be_v take_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o our_o union_n into_o one_o mystical_a spiritual_a body_n with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n reas_n 1_o which_o by_o this_o mean_n be_v firm_o and_o inviolable_o wrought_v 1_o cor._n 6.17_o he_o that_o be_v join_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v one_o spirit_n in_o as_o much_o as_o that_o one_o spirit_n who_o dwell_v in_o christ_n without_o measure_n dwell_v in_o we_o according_a to_o our_o measure_n and_o so_o we_o be_v all_o one_o mystical_a body_n and_o i_o can_v tell_v how_o better_a to_o compare_v it_o then_o to_o a_o musical_a instrument_n wherein_o though_o there_o be_v many_o pipe_n yet_o one_o blast_n of_o the_o bellows_n put_v breath_n into_o they_o all_o so_o that_o all_o of_o they_o at_o once_o break_v forth_o into_o a_o kind_n of_o melody_n and_o give_v a_o pleasant_a sound_n to_o the_o ear_n of_o those_o that_o stand_v by_o all_o of_o they_o do_v make_v but_o one_o instrument_n and_o one_o sound_n and_o yet_o variety_n of_o music_n so_o be_v this_o very_a case_n look_v at_o all_o the_o live_a member_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v all_o compact_a together_o and_o set_v into_o one_o stock_n and_o root_n by_o which_o mean_v it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o though_o they_o be_v many_o thousand_o yet_o they_o all_o make_v a_o melodious_a harmony_n in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n therefore_o for_o the_o combine_a of_o we_o into_o the_o unity_n of_o one_o spirit_n necessary_a it_o be_v that_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o breathe_v in_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n shall_v breathe_v in_o we_o all_o and_o though_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o christ_n be_v god_n the_o humane_a nature_n be_v finite_a and_o yet_o have_v the_o spirit_n above_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o creature_n and_o this_o same_o spirit_n do_v act_n and_o guide_v and_o move_v all_o our_o affair_n in_o he_o and_o which_o be_v wonderful_a it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o same_o spirit_n breathe_v in_o christ_n and_o in_o we_o we_o have_v not_o only_o a_o measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o do_v one_o duty_n but_o he_o do_v concur_v with_o we_o in_o all_o spiritual_a duty_n which_o we_o undertake_v according_a to_o he_o for_o without_o he_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o joh._n 15.5_o this_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n of_o the_o inhabitation_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o keep_v alive_a spiritual_a union_n between_o christ_n and_o we_o therefore_o be_v
