than_o what_o do_v god_n love_n do_v if_o there_o be_v any_o comfort_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v whilst_o god_n be_v afflict_v we_o what_o comfort_n be_v there_o while_o he_o be_v embrace_v we_o if_o

great_a point_n of_o prudence_n high_o to_o value_v and_o love_n to_o kiss_v and_o admire_v this_o bless_a son_n of_o god._n first_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n kiss_v the_o son_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n not_o by_o creation_n as_o the_o angel_n be_v say_v to_o be_v his_o son_n but_o he_o be_v his_o son_n by_o eternal_a generation_n heb._n 1.3_o who_o be_v the_o brightness_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o express_a image_n of_o his_o person_n observe_v jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o he_o be_v the_o brightness_n of_o his_o father_n glory_n you_o know_v that_o the_o brightness_n that_o ●_z from_o the_o sun_n be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n so_o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v the_o brightness_n of_o his_o father_n he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o his_o father_n as_o the_o beam_n they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o sun_n therefore_o christ_n speak_v thus_o john_n 14.9_o he_o that_o have_v see_v i_o have_v see_v my_o father_n again_o observe_v christ_n he_o be_v call_v the_o brightness_n of_o his_o father_n glory_n the_o glory_n of_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o firmament_n it_o lie_v in_o the_o brightness_n of_o it_o so_o the_o incomparable_a glory_n of_o the_o father_n do_v most_o shine_n in_o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v the_o brightness_n of_o his_o father_n glory_n and_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o demonstrate_v to_o we_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o very_a son_n of_o god._n and_o as_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o he_o be_v a_o royal_a son_n he_o be_v a_o son_n as_o he_o be_v a_o king_n i_o have_v set_v my_o king_n upon_o my_o holy_a hill_n of_o zion_n psal._n 2._o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n rev._n 1.5_o all_o king_n they_o hold_v their_o crown_n by_o immediate_a tenor_n from_o jesus_n christ_n prov._n 8.15_o by_o i_o prince_n reign_v so_o that_o christ_n he_o be_v a_o royal_a son_n he_o be_v so_o a_o son_n that_o he_o be_v a_o king._n indeed_o he_o have_v the_o title_n give_v to_o he_o of_o a_o king._n 1._o he_o be_v call_v high_a and_o mighty_a isa._n 9.6_o the_o mighty_a god._n 2._o as_o he_o be_v a_o king_n he_o have_v his_o ensign_n of_o royalty_n he_o have_v his_o sword_n psal._n 49.3_o he_o have_v his_o sceptre_n in_o his_o hand_n heb._n 1.8_o 3._o again_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v king_n he_o have_v his_o prerogative_n royal._n as_o for_o instance_n he_o have_v power_n to_o make_v law_n he_o have_v power_n to_o pardon_v offender_n which_o be_v jewel_n belong_v to_o the_o crown_n of_o prince_n 4._o again_o he_o have_v his_o subject_n and_o they_o be_v the_o most_o noble_a and_o excellent_a subject_n in_o the_o world_n in_o a_o threefold_a respect_n first_o all_o christ_n subject_n be_v make_v free_a john_n 18.36_o his_o subject_n do_v fear_n he_o from_o a_o ingenuous_a principle_n of_o love_n they_o do_v not_o serve_v christ_n out_o of_o constraint_n but_o out_o of_o choice_n they_o be_v of_o a_o free_a noble_a spirit_n second_o christ_n subject_n they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o live_a god_n in_o they_o they_o have_v the_o indwelling_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 2_o tim._n 1.14_o three_o all_o christ_n subject_n they_o be_v of_o the_o blood_n royal_a of_o heaven_n they_o be_v king_n rev._n 1.8_o thus_o you_o see_v christ_n he_o be_v a_o son_n and_o he_o be_v a_o king_n he_o have_v his_o subject_n 5._o again_o christ_n as_o king_n he_o have_v his_o dominion_n there_o be_v some_o prince_n have_v title_n but_o they_o have_v not_o dominion_n but_o christ_n have_v dominion_n as_o well_o as_o title_n of_o honour_n he_o have_v land_n belong_v to_o his_o crown_n christ_n dominion_n be_v famous_a for_o three_o thing_n first_o they_o be_v large_a dominion_n god_n have_v give_v he_o as_o king_n the_o uttermost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o his_o possession_n his_o kingdom_n reach_v all_o over_o the_o world_n second_o christ_n dominion_n be_v famous_a for_o its_o spirituality_n the_o lord_n jesus_n set_v up_o his_o throne_n and_o kingdom_n where_o no_o other_o king_n can_v he_o rule_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n he_o give_v law_n in_o their_o conscience_n he_o bind_v their_o soul_n by_o his_o law_n here_o be_v the_o spirituality_n of_o his_o kingdom_n three_o here_o be_v the_o eternity_n of_o his_o kingdom_n or_o dominion_n thy_o throne_n o_o god_n be_v for_o ever_o and_o ever_o heb._n 1.8_o what_o king_n can_v say_v so_o it_o be_v true_a he_o have_v many_o heir_n for_o all_o believer_n they_o be_v his_o heir_n yet_o he_o have_v no_o successor_n earthly_a crown_n fade_v away_o tumble_v in_o the_o dirt_n and_o those_o that_o wear_v they_o do_v the_o crown_n endure_v to_o all_o generation_n no_o there_o be_v a_o worm_n that_o feed_v in_o this_o gold_n but_o christ_n throne_n it_o endure_v for_o ever_o as_o the_o lord_n jesus_n have_v the_o large_a possession_n for_o so_o he_o have_v and_o they_o shall_v endure_v for_o ever_o and_o ever_o and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o doctrinal_a part_n jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o brightness_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o he_o be_v a_o royal_a son_n he_o be_v so_o a_o son_n as_o he_o be_v a_o king._n now_o to_o make_v some_o application_n use_v 1_o first_o by_o way_n of_o inference_n be_v jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n a_o king_n full_a of_o glory_n and_o majesty_n then_o it_o inform_v we_o thus_o much_o that_o all_o matter_n of_o fact_n must_v be_v bring_v before_o this_o

god_n be_v fit_o qualify_v to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o world_n in_o respect_n of_o these_o two_o thing_n first_o jesus_n christ_n have_v wisdom_n to_o understand_v all_o cause_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n he_o be_v god_n therefore_o will_v search_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o all_o cause_n therefore_o he_o be_v describe_v with_o seven_o eye_n to_o denote_v his_o omnisciency_n to_o judge_v of_o thing_n jesus_n christ_n he_o weigh_v the_o spirit_n of_o man_n as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o balance_n job_n 16.2_o he_o be_v say_v to_o weigh_v the_o spirit_n christ_n do_v not_o only_o judge_v matter_n of_o fact_n but_o he_o judge_n of_o man_n heart_n many_o man_n action_n may_v seem_v in_o this_o world_n to_o be_v good_a but_o their_o heart_n be_v not_o good_a 2_o chron._n 25.2_o now_o christ_n this_o great_a judge_n he_o have_v this_o touchstone_n to_o try_v the_o heart_n second_o jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v not_o only_a wisdom_n but_o have_v strength_n too_o whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o be_v revenge_v upon_o all_o his_o enemy_n therefore_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v remarkable_a that_o christ_n seven_o eye_n they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v upon_o one_o stone_n seven_o eye_n upon_o one_o stone_n to_o denote_v the_o infinite_a strength_n of_o christ_n the_o power_n and_o mighty_a strength_n of_o christ._n as_o christ_n have_v his_o balance_n so_o he_o have_v his_o sword_n to_o cut_v off_o offender_n he_o can_v easy_o strike_v through_o the_o loin_n of_o his_o enemy_n psal._n 110._o thus_o the_o son_n of_o god_n this_o royal_a son_n he_o be_v to_o be_v judge_n and_o
