for_o i_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n till_o thou_o be_v come_v thither_o why_o but_o because_o lot_n be_v in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n undertake_v for_o by_o the_o mediator_n as_o be_v signify_v in_o

will_v endeavour_v to_o make_v plain_a to_o you_o by_o consider_v that_o god_n will_v not_o save_v man_n by_o the_o first_o covenant_n the_o covenant_n of_o creation_n the_o law_n of_o creation_n they_o can_v be_v save_v by_o that_o they_o must_v be_v save_v by_o a_o new_a covenant_n a_o covenant_n that_o be_v all_o miracle_n this_o i_o will_v show_v you_o in_o two_o part_n of_o it_o 1._o when_o god_n justify_v sinner_n by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o another_o by_o the_o obedience_n and_o by_o the_o suffer_a and_o by_o the_o death_n of_o another_o this_o be_v miracle_n and_o it_o be_v as_o great_a miracle_n as_o any_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o man_n allow_v to_o be_v miracle_n and_o indeed_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o internal_a excellency_n the_o intrinsic_a worth_n of_o the_o thing_n it_o be_v far_o great_a than_o any_o miracle_n except_o what_o concern_v the_o very_a excellency_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o person_n of_o the_o mediator_n those_o wonder_n of_o miracle_n if_o
