eternal_a all_o believer_n have_v and_o shall_v experience_n the_o heal_a power_n of_o our_o redeemer_n death_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n last_o the_o israelite_n that_o be_v cure_v by_o look_v up_o to_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n die_v afterward_o some_o distemper_n or_o other_o soon_o carry_v they_o to_o their_o grave_n but_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o believer_n that_o be_v heal_v by_o christ_n shall_v never_o die_v more_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v eternal_a life_n 16_o ¶_o for_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n here_o observe_v 1._o the_o original_a source_n and_o fountain_n of_o man_n salvation_n and_o that_o be_v god_n free_a and_o undeserved_a his_o great_a and_o wonderful_a love_n god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n he_o do_v not_o say_v how_o much_o but_o leave_v it_o to_o our_o most_o solemn_a raise_v thought_n it_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v conceive_v than_o declare_v and_o admire_v rather_o than_o conceive_v god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n hence_o note_v that_o the_o original_a spring_n and_o first_o cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v the_o free_a favour_n and_o mere_a love_n of_o god_n observe_v 2._o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o gift_n by_o which_o god_n evidence_v and_o demonstrate_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o love_n to_o a_o lose_a world_n he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o be_v he_o deliver_v he_o up_o from_o out_o of_o his_o own_o bosom_n and_o everlasting_a embrace_n now_o this_o will_v appear_v a_o stupendous_a expression_n of_o god_n love_n if_o we_o consider_v that_o god_n give_v he_o for_o we_o who_o be_v not_o only_o the_o great_a but_o the_o dear_a person_n to_o he_o in_o the_o world_n even_o his_o own_o son_n that_o he_o give_v he_o for_o sinner_n that_o he_o give_v he_o for_o a_o world_n of_o sinner_n that_o he_o give_v he_o up_o to_o become_v a_o man_n for_o sinner_n that_o he_o give_v he_o up_o to_o become_v a_o miserable_a man_n for_o sinner_n that_o he_o give_v he_o up_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o sinner_n observe_v 3._o the_o gracious_a end_n for_o which_o god_n give_v this_o great_a gift_n of_o his_o love_n to_o lose_v sinner_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v on_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v eternal_a life_n where_o note_n 1._o the_o gentle_a and_o merciful_a condition_n upon_o which_o salvation_n depend_v whoever_o believe_v on_o christ_n shall_v not_o perish_v 2._o the_o infinite_a goodness_n of_o god_n in_o propose_v such_o a_o vast_a reward_n unto_o we_o upon_o our_o perform_n of_o this_o condition_n he_o shall_v have_v everlasting_a life_n learn_v hence_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o way_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v and_o the_o condition_n which_o god_n have_v require_v in_o order_n to_o our_o obtain_n salvation_n by_o jesus_n christ_n this_o faith_n consist_v in_o the_o assent_n of_o the_o understanding_n that_o jesus_n be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n in_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o will_v to_o accept_v of_o jesus_n free_o and_o voluntary_o deliberate_o advise_o and_o resolve_o for_o our_o saviour_n in_o accept_v the_o merit_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o submit_v to_o the_o authority_n of_o his_o law_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o expect_v salvation_n by_o christ_n if_o we_o do_v not_o yield_v subjection_n to_o he_o he_o that_o thus_o believe_v on_o christ_n that_o submit_v himself_o to_o his_o roll_a power_n as_o well_o as_o commit_v himself_o to_o his_o save_a mercy_n shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n 17_o for_o god_n send_v not_o his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o condemn_v the_o world_n but_o that_o the_o world_n through_o he_o may_v be_v save_v 18_o ¶_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o he_o be_v not_o condemn_v but_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o because_o he_o have_v not_o believe_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n observe_v here_o that_o the_o salvation_n of_o sinner_n be_v the_o intentional_a end_n and_o the_o condemnation_n of_o they_o only_o the_o accidental_a event_n of_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n the_o design_n of_o christ_n first_o come_v into_o the_o world_n be_v to_o save_v it_o the_o end_n of_o his_o second_o come_n will_v be_v to_o judge_v the_o unbelieving_a part_n of_o it_o observe_v second_o that_o unbelief_n be_v the_o formal_a cause_n of_o the_o sinner_n damnation_n it_o be_v that_o sin_n which_o do_v bind_v all_o other_o sin_n upon_o the_o sinner_n and_o consign_v he_o over_o to_o damnation_n it_o be_v that_o sin_n which_o do_v not_o only_o procure_v damnation_n but_o no_o damnation_n like_o it_o which_o be_v intimate_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n 19_o and_o this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o man_n love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_v because_o their_o deed_n be_v evil_a observe_v here_o 1._o the_o worth_a and_o dignity_n of_o a_o choice_n and_o invaluable_a privilege_n declare_v light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n a_o personal_a light_n christ_n a_o doctrinal_a light_n the_o gospel_n 2._o observe_v the_o unworthiness_n abuse_n and_o great_a indignity_n which_o the_o world_n through_o infidelity_n offer_v to_o this_o benefit_n they_o reject_v it_o and_o love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_n obs_n 3._o the_o dreadful_a sentence_n of_o wrath_n which_o the_o rejection_n of_o this_o benefit_n and_o the_o abuse_n of_o christ_n bring_v upon_o the_o impenitent_a and_o unbelieving_a world_n it_o terminate_v in_o their_o full_a and_o final_a condemnation_n this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o be_v it_o be_v a_o just_a and_o righteous_a condemnation_n it_o be_v a_o inevitable_a and_o unavoidable_a condemnation_n it_o be_v a_o heighten_a and_o aggravate_v it_o be_v a_o accelerate_a and_o hasten_v a_o irrevocable_a and_o eternal_a condemnation_n learn_v hence_o that_o the_o great_a and_o clear_a the_o light_n be_v under_o which_o the_o unregenerate_a and_o impenitent_a do_v live_v in_o this_o world_n so_o much_o the_o heavy_a will_v their_o condemnation_n and_o misery_n be_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v if_o they_o wilful_o and_o final_o reject_v it_o 20_o for_o every_o one_o that_o do_v evil_a hate_v the_o light_n neither_o come_v to_o the_o light_n lest_o his_o deed_n shall_v be_v reprove_v 21_o but_o he_o that_o do_v truth_n come_v to_o the_o light_n that_o his_o deed_n may_v be_v make_v manifest_a that_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o god_n in_o these_o word_n our_o saviour_n acquaint_v we_o with_o the_o different_a nature_n of_o sin_n and_o holiness_n it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o property_n of_o sinner_n to_o hate_v the_o light_n because_o it_o discover_v the_o evil_a and_o sinfulness_n of_o their_o way_n unto_o they_o and_o condemn_v they_o for_o they_o as_o the_o ethiopian_n be_v say_v to_o curse_v the_o sun_n for_o its_o bright_a and_o hot_a shine_a whereas_o holy_a and_o gracious_a person_n that_o walk_v upright_o do_v love_n the_o light_n that_o be_v they_o delight_v to_o have_v their_o thought_n word_n and_o action_n try_v by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o word_n because_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o god_n that_o be_v perform_v as_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n according_a to_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o with_o a_o single_a eye_n and_o sincere_a aim_n at_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n learn_v hence_o 1._o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o have_v all_o the_o property_n of_o a_o great_a and_o true_a light_n it_o be_v of_o a_o

soul_n and_o detect_v the_o error_n of_o man_n judgement_n as_o well_o as_o discover_v the_o enormity_n of_o their_o life_n learn_v 2._o that_o nothing_o be_v so_o hateful_a to_o and_o hate_v by_o a_o wicked_a man_n as_o the_o discover_v and_o reprove_v light_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o it_o discover_v the_o sin_n it_o condemn_v the_o sinner_n learn_v 3._o that_o a_o true_o gracious_a person_n who_o act_v agreeable_o to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v not_o afraid_a to_o examine_v his_o action_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o desire_n and_o delight_n that_o what_o he_o do_v may_v be_v make_v manifest_a both_o to_o god_n and_o man._n he_o that_o do_v truth_n come_v to_o the_o light_n and_o rejoice_v that_o his_o deed_n may_v be_v make_v manifest_a because_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o god_n 22_o ¶_o after_o these_o thing_n come_v jesus_n and_o his_o
believe_v and_o be_v sure_a that_o thou_o be_v that_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n 70_o jesus_n answer_v they_o have_v not_o i_o choose_v you_o twelve_o and_o one_o of_o you_o be_v a_o

to_o he_o than_o the_o departure_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o near_a they_o be_v from_o who_o we_o receive_v unkindness_n the_o near_o do_v those_o unkindness_n go_v to_o our_o heart_n will_v you_o of_o the_o twelve_o also_o go_v away_o peter_n as_o the_o mouth_n and_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o rest_n answer_n that_o they_o know_v none_o beside_o to_o who_o they_o can_v go_v and_o expect_v that_o happiness_n which_o they_o do_v from_o he_o they_o that_o go_v from_o christ_n can_v never_o hope_v to_o mend_v themselves_o let_v they_o go_v whither_o they_o will_v therefore_o it_o be_v as_o irrational_a as_o it_o be_v sinful_a to_o depart_v from_o christ_n who_o have_v the_o word_n that_o be_v the_o promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n observe_v last_o st._n peter_n have_v make_v this_o

christ_n intimate_v to_o peter_n that_o his_o charity_n be_v something_o too_o large_a in_o promise_v so_o much_o for_o they_o all_o for_o there_o be_v one_o traitor_n among_o they_o who_o heart_n

that_o the_o better_a any_o man_n be_v in_o himself_o the_o more_o charitable_a be_v the_o opinion_n which_o he_o have_v of_o other_o charity_n incline_v to_o believe_v other_o good_a till_o they_o

though_o we_o happen_v to_o be_v mistake_v and_o our_o judgement_n be_v not_o according_a to_o truth_n christ_n know_v judas_n to_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n at_o this_o time_n but_o do_v not_o reprove_v peter_n for_o have_v a_o better_a opinion_n of_o he_o than_o he_o deserve_v it_o be_v far_o better_a to_o err_v on_o the_o charitable_a than_o on_o the_o censorious_a hand_n it_o be_v less_o

jerusalem_n into_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o enemy_n his_o hour_n not_o be_v yet_o come_v learn_v hence_o that_o so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o christ_n to_o save_v and_o preserve_v himself_o from_o danger_n he_o be_v please_v to_o use_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n for_o his_o own_o preservation_n namely_o retirement_n and_o withdraw_a himself_o christ_n as_o god_n can_v have_v rid_v himself_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n by_o a_o miraculous_a preservation_n but_o he_o use_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n when_o they_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n and_o as_o he_o will_v not_o decline_v danger_n when_o his_o hour_n be_v come_v so_o will_v he_o not_o run_v into_o danger_n before_o it_o be_v come_v but_o use_v all_o prudential_a mean_n and_o method_n for_o his_o own_o

5_o for_o neither_o do_v his_o brethren_n believe_v in_o he_o observe_v here_o 1._o the_o advice_n which_o christ_n brethren_n that_o be_v his_o kindred_n give_v he_o to_o render_v himself_o more_o
