power_n of_o the_o father_n the_o son_n &_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n whereof_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v that_o the_o power_n &_o efficacy_n of_o baptism_n depend_v neither_o upon_o the_o power_n of_o the_o minister_n who_o baptise_n nor_o upon_o the_o force_n nor_o power_n of_o the_o word_n pronounce_v by_o the_o minister_n in_o baptism_n as_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o power_n or_o

therefore_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o he_o who_o be_v baptize_v to_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n &_o his_o heart_n to_o heaven_n and_o to_o crave_v the_o blessing_n &_o efficacy_n thereof_o from_o god_n

have_v the_o bitterness_n of_o the_o gall_n there_o be_v sundry_a opinion_n about_o this_o drink_n which_o they_o give_v he_o some_o think_v that_o this_o be_v a_o delicious_a drink_n and_o that_o

and_o put_v it_o to_o his_o mouth_n and_o this_o his_o drink_n be_v to_o be_v count_v a_o part_n of_o his_o passion_n of_o this_o we_o have_v this_o lesson_n always_o keep_v this_o ground_n that_o

this_o history_n at_o large_a only_o we_o have_v thus_o far_o of_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o garden_n first_o how_o heavy_a â—_o weighty_a a_o thing_n sin_n be_v all_o this_o be_v not_o for_o his_o sin_n but_o for_o our_o sin_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n next_o you_o see_v how_o heavy_a a_o thing_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v that_o follow_v on_o sin_n for_o as_o jesus_n christ_n take_v on_o his_o back_n the_o burden_n of_o our_o sin_n so_o do_v he_o also_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o the_o punishment_n that_o follow_v upon_o sin_n if_o you_o know_v not_o this_o you_o know_v nothing_o of_o christ_n three_o you_o see_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n to_o man_n that_o first_o take_v on_o his_o back_n so_o heavy_a a_o burden_n of_o sin_n and_o second_o so_o heavy_a a_o burden_n of_o wrath_n and_o all_o for_o mankind_n if_o christ_n have_v not_o suffer_v never_o a_o man_n have_v be_v safe_a but_o these_o burden_n have_v press_v they_o down_o to_o hell_n never_o a_o soul_n have_v be_v save_v from_o adam_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n look_v then_o what_o love_n he_o have_v show_v to_o we_o and_o last_o this_o agony_n &_o suffering_n in_o the_o garden_n let_v we_o see_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v very_a god_n so_o he_o be_v very_a man_n also_o and_o that_o he_o have_v the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n &_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n for_o this_o suffering_n in_o the_o garden_n be_v especial_o in_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o battle_n the_o soul_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v especial_o set_v on_o by_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o father_n there_o be_v none_o touch_v the_o body_n of_o the_o lord_n at_o this_o time_n but_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o father_n be_v fight_v with_o the_o soul_n but_o to_o leave_v this_o and_o to_o mark_v the_o purpose_n of_o john_n his_o purpose_n be_v only_o to_o let_v you_o see_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n die_v he_o die_v with_o a_o great_a willingness_n and_o readiness_n that_o willing_o he_o go_v to_o death_n and_o be_v not_o draw_v out_o against_o his_o will_n but_o know_v that_o judas_n will_v come_v with_o a_o company_n of_o man_n of_o war_n to_o that_o place_n where_o he_o be_v wont_a to_o walk_v and_o pray_v of_o set_a purpose_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v take_v he_o resort_v thither_o so_o this_o be_v the_o purpose_n of_o john_n to_o let_v we_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n offer_v up_o a_o voluntary_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n for_o except_o he_o have_v offer_v up_o a_o voluntary_a sacrifice_n his_o suffering_n have_v not_o be_v obedience_n to_o the_o father_n he_o have_v not_o be_v as_o be_v say_v phil._n 2.8_o obedient_a to_o the_o father_n so_o the_o lord_n die_v and_o he_o
