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

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

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 have_v such_o a_o power_n in_o he_o when_o he_o ascend_v he_o come_v to_o another_o ground_n of_o work_v of_o great_a work_n what_o ever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o my_o name_n you_o shall_v get_v it_o that_o be_v send_v up_o your_o prayer_n to_o i_o to_o the_o heaven_n when_o i_o be_o glorify_v and_o what_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o my_o name_n it_o shall_v be_v grant_v so_o this_o be_v another_o ground_n wherefore_o the_o apostle_n wrought_v great_a work_n after_o his_o ascension_n they_o pray_v to_o he_o and_o draw_v down_o his_o power_n out_o of_o heaven_n by_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o power_n incomprehensible_a that_o be_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n now_o if_o any_o man_n or_o woman_n will_v be_v partaker_n of_o that_o power_n he_o must_v send_v up_o his_o prayer_n to_o heaven_n by_o faith_n in_o he_o to_o draw_v down_o that_o power_n to_o the_o world_n we_o see_v the_o apostle_n act._n 4._o pray_v earnest_o that_o by_o their_o hand_n he_o will_v work_v sign_n and_o wonder_n and_o they_o obtain_v it_o it_o be_v a_o pity_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v so_o great_a a_o power_n in_o jesus_n christ_n to_o life_n and_o we_o miserable_a creature_n have_v so_o great_a need_n and_o want_v of_o it_o shall_v have_v no_o part_n of_o it_o the_o fault_n lie_v not_o in_o christ_n for_o there_o be_v power_n and_o virtue_n enough_o in_o he_o to_o save_v a_o thousand_o world_n but_o this_o be_v the_o fault_n man_n and_o woman_n can_v pray_v because_o they_o want_v faith_n so_o all_o the_o want_n that_o be_v in_o we_o that_o we_o want_n heaven_n and_o life_n everlasting_a all_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o ourselves_o that_o can_v pray_v and_o say_v lord_n there_o be_v a_o wonderful_a power_n in_o thou_o and_o thou_o can_v save_v a_o thousand_o world_n therefore_o lord_n by_o thy_o power_n save_o i_o it_o be_v a_o foul_a shame_n that_o this_o shall_v inlake_v on_o our_o part_n that_o we_o can_v open_v our_o mouth_n to_o seek_v grace_n see_v such_o abundance_n such_o a_o infinite_a power_n and_o treasure_n be_v in_o he_o and_o if_o there_o be_v a_o great_a treasure_n to_o be_v deal_v so_o that_o every_o man_n may_v have_v his_o part_n he_o will_v condemn_v himself_o who_o go_v not_o to_o get_v a_o share_n now_o there_o be_v never_o such_o a_o treasure_n as_o be_v life_n eternal_a and_o he_o who_o get_v not_o a_o share_n of_o it_o but_o lie_v behind_o sleep_v have_v no_o care_n to_o get_v it_o he_o be_v worthy_a a_o thousand_o death_n so_o we_o shall_v seek_v this_o grace_n by_o prayer_n and_o chief_o that_o we_o may_v have_v the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n for_o all_o man_n can_v seek_v heaven_n it_o be_v a_o sore_a thing_n to_o we_o to_o want_n a_o share_n of_o that_o rich_a treasure_n for_o fault_n of_o heart_n to_o seek_v it_o he_o repeat_v this_o promise_n twice_o if_o you_o ask_v any_o thing_n in_o my_o name_n i_o will_v do_v it_o and_o indeed_o he_o do_v it_o in_o effect_n for_o when_o the_o lord_n have_v ascend_v they_o pray_v that_o they_o shall_v work_v miracle_n and_o so_o they_o do_v so_o he_o be_v true_a in_o all_o his_o promise_n and_o mark_v it_o brethren_n he_o say_v he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o not_o they_o shall_v do_v it_o for_o christ_n by_o his_o own_o power_n work_v miracle_n the_o which_o power_n he_o communicate_v not_o to_o his_o instrument_n but_o he_o reserve_v it_o to_o himself_o and_o by_o the_o

the_o lord_n serve_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n all_o the_o power_n he_o have_v get_v it_o diminish_v not_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n but_o augment_v it_o and_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n stand_v in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o son_n because_o he_o be_v the_o splendour_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o son_n be_v not_o glorify_v the_o father_n want_v glory_n and_o he_o who_o will_v not_o glorify_v the_o son_n he_o will_v not_o glorify_v the_o father_n this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v omit_v while_o he_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o utter_n of_o his_o power_n forget_v he_o the_o father_n no_o he_o set_v down_o the_o father_n glory_n as_o the_o end_n of_o his_o power_n when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v in_o the_o world_n he_o speak_v never_o a_o word_n but_o he_o have_v
