second_o reason_n i_o lay_v upon_o four_o proposition_n and_o so_o shall_v arise_v and_o ascend_v unto_o the_o conclusion_n by_o several_a step_n thus_o first_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a treasury_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o supply_v and_o succour_v all_o those_o that_o be_v tempt_v if_o a_o man_n have_v have_v a_o straight_a shoe_n upon_o his_o foot_n or_o a_o straight_a garment_n he_o know_v where_o it_o pinch_v and_o according_o he_o be_v able_a to_o get_v it_o mend_v now_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v put_v on_o our_o

therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n he_o be_v in_o all_o thing_n tempt_v like_o unto_o we_o 2.18_o heb._n 2.18_o that_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o succour_v those_o that_o be_v tempt_v jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o the_o lord-treasurer_n of_o all_o our_o comfort_n but_o the_o lord_n keeper_n of_o all_o our_o grace_n the_o near_a any_o thing_n come_v unto_o the_o fountain_n of_o excellency_n the_o more_o excellent_a it_o be_v the_o sun_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o light_n and_o the_o near_o any_o thing_n come_v to_o the_o sun_n the_o more_o light_a it_o have_v fire_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o warmth_n and_o heat_n and_o the_o near_o any_o thing_n come_v unto_o the_o fire_n the_o more_o warm_a it_o be_v why_o the_o deity_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o holiness_n and_o jesus_n christ_n be_v so_o near_o unto_o it_o as_o mediator_n that_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o he_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o god_n head_n dwell_v 2.9_o col._n 2.9_o and_o sure_o therefore_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o infinite_a treasury_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o he_o the_o saint_n you_o know_v of_o the_o old-testament_n they_o be_v very_o holy_a abraham_n and_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o joseph_n and_o moses_n and_o samuel_n and_o david_n and_o solomon_n they_o be_v full_a of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n and_o yet_o these_o be_v but_o type_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v but_o shadow_n of_o christ_n now_o the_o type_n and_o the_o shadow_n do_v fall_v infinite_o short_a of_o the_o thing_n typify_v and_o of_o the_o substance_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v so_o much_o

what_o a_o infinite_a treasury_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n must_v there_o be_v in_o christ_n himself_o this_o be_v the_o first_o proposition_n second_o as_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a treasury_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n so_o whatever_o grace_n and_o holiness_n christ_n as_o mediator_n have_v receive_v by_o god_n the_o father_n he_o have_v not_o receive_v it_o for_o

place_n for_o you_o 4.8_o jo._n 14.2_o eph._n 4.8_o and_o so_o when_o christ_n receive_v gift_n say_v the_o apostle_n he_o receive_v gift_n for_o man_n not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o other_o he_o receive_v gift_n for_o man_n the_o woman_n have_v milk_n in_o her_o breast_n but_o not_o for_o herself_o but_o for_o her_o child_n the_o sun_n have_v abundance_n of_o light_n in_o his_o body_n it_o be_v not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o the_o world_n and_o so_o jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v receive_v abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n but_o it_o be_v not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o

now_o look_v as_o it_o be_v concern_v our_o forefather_n adam_n be_v a_o common_a person_n look_v what_o nature_n he_o have_v we_o have_v he_o be_v make_v up_o of_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o so_o be_v

he_o sin_v we_o have_v sin_n for_o his_o sin_n pride_n for_o his_o pride_n and_o unbelief_n for_o his_o unbelief_n because_o he_o be_v a_o common_a person_n so_o i_o say_v jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o second_o adam_n look_v what_o grace_n he_o have_v the_o saint_n have_v they_o have_v grace_n for_o his_o grace_n they_o have_v holiness_n for_o his_o holiness_n the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o 5._o of_o the_o roman_n that_o as_o by_o one_o man_n offence_n death_n come_v so_o through_o the_o gift_n of_o grace_n grace_n have_v abound_v but_o not_o as_o the_o offence_n say_v he_o at_o the_o 15._o

by_o one_o man_n jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o now_o if_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v grace_n for_o grace_n from_o christ_n as_o we_o have_v sin_n for_o sin_n from_o the_o first_o adam_n how_o shall_v grace_n superabound_v our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n christ_n say_v himself_o i_o have_v life_n in_o myself_o the_o son_n have_v life_n in_o himself_o 5.26_o joh._n 5.26_o which_o lay_v to_o that_o expression_n which_o you_o have_v in_o the_o 1._o of_o genesis_n speak_v to_o our_o purpose_n the_o 11._o and_o 12._o verse_n god_n say_v let_v the_o earth_n bring_v forth_o grass_n the_o herb_n yield_v seed_n and_o the_o fruit-tree_n yield_v fruit_n after_o his_o kind_n who_o seed_n be_v in_o itself_o and_o so_o again_o at_o the_o 12._o verse_n who_o seed_n be_v in_o itself_o that_o be_v these_o creature_n have_v a_o power_n in_o themselves_o to_o bring_v forth_o their_o like_a and_o so_o say_v jesus_n christ_n as_o other_o creature_n have_v seed_n in_o themselves_o to_o

we_o have_v sin_n for_o sin_n from_o the_o first_o adam_n we_o must_v have_v grace_n for_o grace_n from_o the_o second_o adam_n also_o three_o there_o be_v a_o incomparable_a and_o glorious_a rea._n
