2.9_o that_o god_n do_v no_o way_n give_v down_o himself_o to_o we_o as_o he_o be_v in_o himself_o but_o through_o christ_n who_o be_v for_o that_o end_n ordain_v by_o himself_o he_o be_v a_o suitable_a light_n to_o present_v such_o a_o object_n if_o this_o be_v so_o what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o those_o that_o have_v find_v out_o other_o way_n to_o bring_v down_o god_n to_o the_o creature_n under_o the_o same_o consideration_n before_o speak_v of_o not_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o dead_a way_n of_o nature_n nor_o much_o of_o the_o dark_a way_n of_o the_o law_n but_o also_o of_o some_o guild_a path_n and_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o man_n do_v by_o use_v some_o expression_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v endeavour_n to_o make_v a_o conjunction_n of_o law_n and_o gospel_n as_o one_o way_n to_o bring_v down_o god_n nay_o man_n have_v a_o art_n in_o these_o time_n to_o turn_v the_o very_a effect_n produce_v by_o god_n they_o go_v about_o to_o make_v they_o cause_n to_o cause_v a_o alteration_n in_o god_n my_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o even_o prayer_n and_o fast_v which_o in_o god_n way_n i_o much_o prize_n which_o if_o true_a be_v alone_o produce_v by_o a_o power_n from_o god_n the_o end_n be_v to_o fit_a and_o alter_v we_o and_o not_o god_n man_n now_o a_o day_n make_v these_o mean_n as_o a_o way_n to_o tie_v and_o constrain_v god_n to_o alter_v and_o to_o change_v god_n o_o monstrous_a i_o desire_v to_o love_v the_o work_n but_o abhor_v the_o
way_n obje_v sure_o this_o fast_v you_o speak_v of_o be_v not_o so_o as_o you_o say_v but_o must_v needs_o be_v true_a fast_n and_o pray_v and_o that_o for_o this_o cause_n because_o we_o have_v so_o many_o answer_n after_o one_o fast_v and_o pray_v of_o our_o desire_n in_o they_o answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v if_o it_o be_v so_o bless_v god_n and_o i_o desire_v to_o do_v the_o same_o but_o if_o you_o judge_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o fast_v and_o prayer_n by_o a_o answer_n after_o it_o and_o not_o by_o a_o right_n perform_v of_o it_o than_o what_o difference_n be_v there_o i_o pray_v you_o betwixt_o the_o fast_a of_o david_n and_o the_o fast_a of_o ahab_n but_o i_o say_v no_o more_o of_o this_o thing_n doct._n the_o second_o conclusion_n from_o this_o first_o thing_n be_v this_o 44._o joh._n 6_o 44._o that_o no_o soul_n do_v or_o can_v give_v himself_o up_o to_o god_n till_o he_o enjoy_v power_n from_o the_o sweet_a give_v down_o of_o god_n to_o he_o through_o his_o son_n christ_n there_o may_v as_o well_o be_v reflection_n of_o the_o beam_n of_o a_o sun_n without_o a_o sun_n as_o return_n to_o god_n without_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n then_o thing_n act_n real_o to_o its_o proper_a end_n when_o they_o act_n not_o only_o from_o but_o in_o their_o own_o element_n but_o what_o it_o be_v to_o love_v from_o the_o strength_n of_o love_n and_o to_o act_v live_v act_n to_o a_o live_a end_n from_o the_o distil_a of_o a_o live_a power_n i_o leave_v you_o to_o judge_v who_o i_o hope_v life_n in_o those_o sweet_a stream_n who_o spirit_n be_v fill_v by_o live_v under_o the_o drop_n of_o that_o divine_a fountain_n doct._n the_o three_o conclusion_n that_o we_o see_v nothing_o true_o in_o god_n nor_o have_v no_o real_a communion_n with_o god_n but_o that_o which_o we_o see_v and_o enjoy_v in_o christ_n as_o the_o way_n and_o so_o much_o of_o this_o first_o thing_n i_o be_o the_o way_n he_o say_v also_o i_o be_o the_o truth_n christ_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v truth_n these_o wave_n first_o in_o that_o he_o be_v the_o cause_n declare_v truth_n second_o he_o be_v the_o object_n or_o matter_n declare_v by_o truth_n for_o all_o the_o prophet_n write_v of_o he_o for_o all_o the_o prophecy_n and_o promise_n point_v at_o he_o three_o he_o be_v not_o only_o so_o truth_n but_o he_o be_v truth_n essential_o for_o god_n be_v the_o word_n and_o the_o word_n be_v god_n he_o faith_n he_o be_v also_o life_n that_o hereby_o he_o may_v appear_v to_o be_v as_o he_o be_v all_o in_o all_o there_o be_v but_o three_o thing_n essential_a in_o a_o man_n way_n first_o a_o way_n to_o walk_v in_o second_o a_o light_n of_o truth_n to_o discover_v the_o way_n three_o a_o power_n to_o carry_v we_o on_o in_o the_o way_n or_o else_o you_o must_v lie_v still_o so_o by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v that_o christ_n be_v all_o in_o all_o to_o a_o christian_a soul_n for_o we_o be_v by_o christ_n in_o christ_n carry_v out_o to_o christ_n he_o be_v the_o way_n to_o god_n and_o the_o truth_n that_o discover_v god_n and_o also_o the_o life_n that_o carry_v you_o on_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n discover_v to_o god_n in_o that_o way_n doct._n and_o therefore_o the_o conclusion_n from_o all_o this_o 3.22_o 1_o cro_n 1.30_o 1_o cro._n 3.22_o be_v this_o that_o christ_n be_v all_o in_o all_o to_o a_o christian_n soul_n he_o be_v all_o in_o they_o all_o to_o they_o all_o for_o they_o the_o use_n of_o this_o shall_v teach_v we_o first_o to_o see_v all_o in_o he_o second_o to_o look_v for_o all_o from_o he_o three_o to_o teach_v we_o to_o give_v all_o to_o he_o now_o for_o the_o next_o word_n wherein_o christ_n say_v no_o man_n come_v to_o the_o father_n but_o but_o by_o i_o this_o be_v but_o a_o explication_n of_o the_o former_a word_n and_o the_o same_o conclusion_n do_v natural_o arise_v from_o it_o which_o be_v this_o that_o we_o see_v nothing_o true_o in_o god_n nor_o have_v no_o real_a communion_n with_o god_n but_o that_o which_o we_o see_v and_o enjoy_v in_o christ_n as_o the_o way_n and_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o this_o conclusion_n nor_o of_o this_o verse_n now_o i_o shall_v speak_v a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o the_o eight_o verse_n where_o philip_n say_v show_v we_o the_o father_n and_o it_o suffice_v we_o in_o which_o word_n in_o general_a be_v discover_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o a_o manifestation_n

which_o be_v the_o sweet_a manifestation_n of_o god_n by_o christ_n how_o he_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o hold_v out_o in_o christ_n the_o person_n desire_v be_v a_o soul_n possess_v with_o god_n from_o whence_o observe_v this_o conclusion_n that_o the_o discovery_n of_o god_n by_o christ_n 5,16_o doctr._fw-la cant_n 5.4_o 5,16_o do_v abundant_o enlarge_v and_o take_v up_o the_o heart_n

suitable_a good_a to_o the_o thing_n but_o that_o soul_n that_o be_v possess_v with_o god_n and_o the_o life_n of_o the_o joy_n in_o the_o soul_n real_o flow_v from_o god_n nothing_o be_v so_o

christ_n i_o say_v no_o more_o of_o this_o conclusion_n second_o in_o the_o desire_n you_o may_v observe_v the_o matter_n desire_v show_v the_o thing_n desire_v be_v to_o see_v god_n hence_o observe_v this_o conclusion_n doct._n that_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n 4.41_o john_n 4.10_o john_n 4.41_o be_v a_o very_a desirable_a thing_n and_o they_o that_o

gospel_n be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o see_v god_n in_o the_o object_n of_o love_n three_o that_o no_o soul_n can_v true_o desire_v god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n till_o he_o by_o he_o have_v a_o knowledge_n of_o he_o four_o that_o soul_n that_o ever_o have_v a_o real_a knowledge_n of_o god_n can_v be_v satisfy_v by_o see_v nothing_o but_o god_n and_o so_o much_o of_o that_o conclusion_n three_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v not_o only_o the_o thing_n desire_v but_o the_o extent_n of_o the_o desire_n show_v we_o philip_n do_v not_o only_o desire_v it_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o other_o as_o well_o as_o himself_o thence_o observe_v this_o conclusion_n doct._n that_o those_o desire_n that_o run_v forth_o to_o god_n and_o real_o flow_v from_o god_n be_v not_o desire_n limit_v within_o a_o man_n own_o breast_n but_o extend_v it_o self_n for_o the_o good_a of_o other_o as_o for_o itself_o that_o life_n which_o be_v give_v out_o to_o we_o and_o produce_v desire_n in_o we_o do_v real_o produce_v a_o self-dividing_a power_n in_o we_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o christian_n be_v so_o free_a in_o their_o desire_n for_o other_o and_o in_o their_o discovery_n to_o
