no_o but_o the_o nature_n that_o god_n take_v into_o unity_n of_o person_n have_v blood_n and_o so_o be_v one_o person_n with_o god_n god_n shed_v his_o blood_n it_o be_v god_n that_o purchase_v a_o

with_o god_n hereupon_o come_v the_o dignity_n of_o whatsoever_o christ_n do_v and_o suffer_v though_o he_o do_v it_o in_o our_o nature_n yet_o the_o godhead_n give_v it_o its_o worth_n and_o not_o

hence_o arise_v communication_n of_o property_n as_o divine_n call_v it_o which_o i_o will_v not_o now_o speak_v of_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o see_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v do_v by_o christ_n god_n be_v do_v by_o god_n he_o be_v emanuel_n and_o therefore_o have_v its_o worth_n and_o dignity_n to_o prevail_v with_o god_n hence_o come_v a_o forcible_a reason_n that_o god_n must_v satisfy_v divine_a justice_n reason_n because_o it_o be_v the_o action_n of_o a_o god-man_n his_o great_a suffering_n be_v the_o suffering_n of_o the_o second_o person_n in_o our_o nature_n and_o hereupon_o from_o satisfaction_n and_o merit_n come_v reconciliation_n between_o ged_a and_o we_o god_n be_v satisfy_v by_o christ_n god_n and_o we_o be_v at_o term_n of_o peace_n our_o peace_n be_v well_o found_v if_o it_o be_v found_v in_o god_n the_o father_n by_o god_n the_o son_n take_v our_o nature_n into_o unity_n of_o his_o person_n these_o thing_n must_v have_v influence_n into_o our_o

comfort_n and_o holiness_n from_o hence_o as_o from_o the_o great_a argument_n that_o can_v be_v therefore_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v so_o punctual_a in_o they_o god_n be_v emanuel_n especial_o to_o make_v god_n and_o we_o one_o christ_n be_v our_o friend_n in_o take_v our_o nature_n to_o make_v god_n and_o we_o friend_n again_o but_o how_o do_v friendship_n between_o god_n and_o we_o arise_v from_o hence_o quest._n that_o christ_n be_v god_n in_o our_o nature_n i_o will_v give_v 2._o or_o 3._o reason_n of_o it_o first_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o god_n shall_v be_v at_o peace_n with_o we_o reason_n because_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o division_n be_v take_v away_o it_o be_v sin_n the_o cause_n of_o division_n be_v take_v away_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o separate_v between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o if_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o god_n be_v mercy_n itself_o and_o mercy_n will_v have_v a_o current_n what_o stop_v mercy_n but_o sin_n second_o take_v away_o sin_n it_o run_v amain_o christ_n therefore_o become_v emanuel_n god_n with_o we_o because_o he_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n before_o adam_n have_v sin_v there_o be_v sweet_a agreement_n and_o communion_n between_o adam_n and_o god_n but_o sin_n that_o divide_v between_o god_n and_o the_o creature_n now_o christ_n have_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o all_o our_o sin_n there_o can_v be_v nothing_o but_o mercy_n reason_n again_o christ_n be_v a_o fit_a person_n to_o knit_v god_n and_o we_o together_o because_o our_o nature_n be_v pure_a in_o christ_n and_o therefore_o in_o christ_n god_n love_v we_o after_o satisfaction_n god_n look_v on_o our_o nature_n in_o christ_n and_o see_v it_o pure_a in_o he_o christ_n be_v the_o glory_n of_o our_o nature_n now_o if_o our_o nature_n be_v pure_a in_o our_o head_n which_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o our_o nature_n god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o and_o love_v we_o in_o he_o that_o be_v pure_a out_o of_o who_o god_n can_v not_o love_v we_o as_o christ_n be_v pure_a and_o our_o nature_n in_o he_o so_o he_o will_v make_v we_o pure_a at_o length_n reason_n three_o christ_n be_v our_o head_n of_o influence_n convey_v the_o same_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o he_o to_o all_o his_o member_n and_o by_o little_a and_o little_a by_o that_o spirit_n purge_v his_o church_n and_o make_v her_o fit_a for_o communion_n with_o himself_o for_o he_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n he_o take_v our_o frail_a humane_a nature_n that_o we_o may_v partake_v of_o his_o divine_a nature_n this_o be_v of_o his_o divine_a quality_n to_o be_v holy_a pure_a humble_a and_o obedient_a as_o he_o be_v and_o thus_o christ_n be_v a_o head_n not_o only_o of_o eminence_n to_o rule_v and_o govern_v but_o of_o influence_n to_o flow_v by_o his_o spirit_n into_o all_o his_o member_n be_v fit_a to_o be_v a_o reconciler_n to_o bring_v god_n and_o we_o together_o partly_o because_o our_o nature_n be_v in_o he_o and_o partly_o because_o he_o do_v communicate_v the_o same_o spirit_n to_o we_o that_o be_v in_o himself_o and_o by_o little_a and_o little_o make_v we_o holy_a like_o himself_o i_o hasten_v to_o the_o main_a use_n of_o all_o then_o god_n the_o father_n and_o we_o be_v in_o good_a term_n for_o the_o second_o person_n be_v god_n in_o our_o nature_n for_o this_o end_n to_o make_v god_n and_o we_o friend_n 3.2_o there_o be_v a_o notable_a place_n of_o scripture_n which_o i_o note_v for_o the_o expression_n sake_n he_o speak_v there_o of_o a_o day_n man_n there_o be_v no_o dayman_n between_o we_o that_o may_v lay_v his_o hand_n on_o we_o both_o that_o be_v a_o middle_a person_n to_o lay_v his_o hand_n on_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o now_o christ_n be_v the_o middle_a

declare_v he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o ordinary_a person_n and_o so_o we_o must_v all_o conceive_v christ_n and_o bear_v christ_n in_o our_o word_n and_o action_n it_o must_v appear_v that_o christ_n live_v in_o we_o action_n it_o must_v appear_v outward_o to_o man_n what_o we_o be_v inward_o to_o god_n our_o whole_a outward_a life_n must_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o discovery_n of_o christ_n live_v
