argument_n be_v sufficient_a that_o after_o his_o ascension_n by_o their_o ministry_n the_o whole_a world_n be_v convert_v which_o come_v not_o to_o pass_v while_o he_o himself_o be_v on_o the_o

be_o pass_v to_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o my_o glory_n shall_v utter_v itself_o the_o power_n of_o jesus_n christ_n must_v appear_v in_o the_o world_n at_o that_o time_n of_o his_o ascension_n when_o he_o go_v to_o his_o father_n to_o heaven_n than_o the_o power_n strike_v wonderful_o upon_o the_o earth_n from_o the_o heaven_n when_o we_o have_v the_o lord_n jesus_n now_o glorify_v in_o the_o heaven_n we_o have_v a_o more_o glorious_a power_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n than_o the_o jew_n who_o have_v his_o bodily_a presence_n so_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o be_v to_o pass_v

hinder_v nothing_o his_o glory_n yea_o i_o say_v his_o glory_n seem_v the_o more_o in_o the_o world_n by_o their_o work_n because_o it_o testify_v that_o he_o who_o be_v so_o base_a in_o the_o world_n

the_o first_o argument_n be_v from_o the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n that_o be_v at_o hand_n the_o time_n be_v come_v say_v the_o lord_n therefore_o glorify_v thy_o son_n the_o second_o argument_n

that_o i_o may_v give_v life_n everlasting_a to_o they_o who_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o then_o he_o let_v we_o see_v that_o it_o can_v be_v possible_a that_o he_o can_v give_v life_n to_o any_o man_n except_o he_o first_o be_v glorify_v life_n everlasting_a stand_v first_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o father_n that_o only_o true_a god_n then_o it_o stand_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o

to_o the_o father_n except_o thou_o glorify_v i_o neither_o thou_o nor_o i_o shall_v be_v know_v and_o therefore_o that_o life_n everlasting_a may_v be_v give_v to_o man_n it_o be_v needful_a that_o i_o be_v glorify_v thus_o far_o hitherto_o now_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o text_n which_o we_o have_v read_v we_o have_v the_o four_o argument_n from_o that_o glory_n he_o have_v give_v to_o the_o father_n already_o father_n say_v he_o i_o have_v glorify_v thou_o on_o the_o earth_n i_o have_v end_v the_o work_n that_o thou_o give_v i_o to_o do_v what_o rest_v but_o that_o thou_o glorify_v i_o there_o must_v be_v a_o meeting_n here_o the_o son_n must_v glorify_v the_o father_n and_o the_o father_n must_v glorify_v the_o son_n so_o you_o see_v very_o weighty_a argument_n of_o this_o petition_n from_o the_o beginning_n both_o the_o time_n crave_v that_o the_o father_n shall_v glorify_v the_o son_n and_o then_o the_o great_a fruit_n that_o be_v to_o proceed_v thereof_o for_o the_o father_n shall_v want_v glory_n and_o the_o world_n shall_v want_v life_n if_o the_o son_n be_v not_o glorify_v and_o last_o you_o see_v that_o very_a obedience_n that_o the_o son_n give_v to_o the_o father_n in_o the_o earth_n require_v that_o the_o father_n shall_v glorify_v he_o the_o son_n have_v glorify_v the_o father_n in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o the_o father_n shall_v have_v glorify_v the_o son_n in_o the_o heaven_n but_o to_o come_v to_o the_o last_o argument_n i_o have_v glorify_v thou_o say_v the_o son_n this_o argument_n lean_v to_o a_o promise_n which_o the_o father_n make_v to_o the_o son_n ere_o ever_o he_o be_v manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o he_o will_v reason_v thus_o father_n thou_o have_v promise_v that_o if_o i_o shall_v glorify_v thou_o thou_o shall_v glorify_v i_o but_o so_o it_o be_v father_n that_o i_o have_v glorify_v thou_o therefore_o glorify_v i_o this_o promise_n be_v often_o find_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n in_o many_o place_n thereof_o look_v the_o hundred_o and_o ten_o psalm_n there_o it_o be_v say_v the_o lord_n say_v to_o my_o lord_n that_o be_v the_o father_n say_v to_o the_o son_n for_o both_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o this_o world_n sit_v thou_o at_o my_o right_a hand_n until_o the_o time_n that_o i_o make_v thy_o enemy_n thy_o footstool_n there_o be_v that_o promise_a glory_n that_o he_o shall_v make_v he_o king_n over_o the_o world_n and_o humble_a his_o enemy_n spiritual_a and_o temporal_a under_o his_o foot_n so_o this_o be_v the_o glory_n that_o the_o son_n crave_v now_o brethren_n in_o very_a deed_n the_o son_n of_o god_n may_v have_v claim_v just_o that_o promise_n that_o the_o father_n make_v to_o he_o under_o the_o condition_n of_o obedience_n because_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n

to_o come_v to_o we_o there_o be_v no_o man_n since_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n that_o dare_v be_v bold_a except_o they_o be_v utterlie_o impudent_a to_o claim_v any_o life_n or_o grace_n of_o god_n by_o virtue_n of_o this_o condition_n of_o obedience_n and_o to_o say_v lord_n i_o have_v do_v this_o therefore_o lord_n give_v i_o life_n there_o be_v no_o flesh_n no_o not_o the_o best_a renew_a

philipp_n 3._o vers_fw-la 9_o i_o esteem_v all_o to_o be_v but_o dongue_z that_o i_o may_v gain_v christ_n for_o why_o brethren_n there_o be_v no_o flesh_n except_o that_o man_n jesus_n christ_n
