obser_n 4_o to_o be_v right_o inform_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o power_n and_o interest_n which_o jesus_n christ_n have_v in_o the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o life_n be_v a_o especial_a mean_n to_o cure_v the_o ignorance_n and_o to_o prevent_v the_o error_n we_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v corrupt_v withal_o concerue_v the_o power_n and_o godhead_n of_o christ_n that_o which_o have_v be_v already_o speak_v in_o the_o handle_n of_o the_o first_o observation_n i_o suppose_v may_v save_v i_o the_o labour_n and_o the_o time_n that_o otherwise_o may_v have_v be_v employ_v in_o enlarge_n upon_o this_o there_o you_o have_v hear_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o author_n or_o efficient_a cause_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o life_n and_o in_o the_o application_n we_o make_v use_v of_o it_o for_o the_o confirm_v of_o our_o faith_n in_o the_o godhead_n of_o christ_n i_o shall_v therefore_o add_v no_o more_o for_o the_o proof_n or_o application_n of_o this_o point_n but_o only_o this_o that_o he_o which_o do_v know_v and_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o author_n and_o efficient_a cause_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o life_n can_v doubt_v but_o

power_n in_o it_o be_v of_o especial_a use_n to_o comfort_v the_o sorrowful_a and_o mourn_a friend_n of_o such_o as_o die_v in_o the_o faith_n i_o say_v to_o be_v inform_v to_o exclude_v ignorance_n and_o to_o be_v right_o inform_v to_o avoid_v error_n i_o say_v first_o to_o be_v inform_v in_o it_o and_o then_o to_o be_v affect_v with_o it_o because_o the_o information_n of_o the_o judgement_n must_v go_v before_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o will_n and_o that_o not_o only_o as_o a_o guide_n to_o conduct_v unto_o the_o right_a end_n but_o also_o as_o a_o counsellor_n to_o advise_v unto_o the_o proper_a mean_n and_o also_o as_o god_n minister_v in_o some_o sort_n to_o command_v that_o be_v not_o by_o any_o power_n or_o authority_n of_o its_o own_o but_o by_o manifest_v what_o be_v the_o

of_o our_o affection_n and_o i_o say_v both_o to_o be_v right_o inform_v and_o affect_v because_o both_o be_v necessary_a to_o have_v the_o mind_n enlighten_v and_o the_o heart_n not_o affect_v be_v
