save_v sinner_n in_o treat_v on_o these_o word_n i_o propose_v by_o god_n assistance_n to_o make_v good_a the_o apostle_n assertion_n viz._n that_o the_o say_v mention_v by_o he_o be_v both_o certain_o true_a and_o fit_a to_o be_v entertain_v by_o we_o with_o all_o readiness_n and_o thankfulness_n and_o that_o whether_o we_o consider_v the_o intrinsic_a evidence_n it_o carry_v along_o with_o it_o or_o the_o external_a attestation_n which_o have_v be_v give_v to_o it_o i_o begin_v with_o its_o intrinsic_a evidence_n viz._n its_o credibility_n from_o its_o manifest_a agreeableness_n to_o those_o notion_n which_o we_o natural_o have_v concern_v god_n and_o ourselves_o and_o to_o make_v this_o appear_v i_o propose_v the_o follow_a method_n first_o to_o consider_v who_o the_o person_n be_v who_o christ_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v second_o what_o kind_n of_o salvation_n he_o propose_v to_o they_o three_o in_o what_o way_n and_o manner_n he_o have_v by_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n wrought_v out_o this_o salvation_n for_o they_o the_o first_o of_o these_o i_o have_v dispatch_v show_v that_o the_o person_n who_o christ_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v be_v both_o man_n and_o sinner_n under_o each_o of_o which_o denomination_n i_o endeavour_v to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o be_v fit_a object_n of_o the_o divine_a care_n and_o compassion_n to_o be_v exercise_v in_o some_o extraordinary_a manner_n i_o proceed_v now_o to_o consider_v in_o the_o second_o place_n what_o kind_n of_o salvation_n christ_n jesus_n propose_v to_o these_o creature_n concern_v which_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o add_v much_o after_o what_o have_v be_v discourse_v upon_o the_o former_a head_n for_o by_o a_o little_a reflection_n upon_o the_o condition_n of_o sinner_n it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o discern_v what_o kind_n of_o salvation_n they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o which_o be_v the_o very_a same_o which_o our_o saviour_n have_v propose_v to_o we_o in_o his_o gospel_n his_o design_n in_o come_v into_o the_o world_n be_v to_o provide_v for_o the_o necessity_n of_o fall_v man_n with_o reference_n to_o which_o necessity_n salvation_n must_v imply_v both_o a_o deliverance_n from_o those_o many_o evil_n to_o which_o sin_n have_v expose_v they_o and_o a_o restitution_n of_o those_o many_o blessing_n which_o by_o their_o transgression_n they_o have_v forfeit_v thus_o for_o instance_n the_o salvation_n of_o man_n by_o jesus_n christ_n consist_v in_o his_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o just_a displeasure_n of_o their_o maker_n and_o all_o the_o terrible_a effect_n of_o it_o together_o with_o a_o complete_a restoration_n of_o they_o to_o the_o divine_a favour_n and_o give_v they_o a_o title_n to_o all_o

introduce_v into_o the_o several_a faculty_n of_o their_o soul_n together_o with_o the_o dissatisfaction_n and_o uneasiness_n of_o mind_n which_o necessary_o follow_v as_o also_o from_o those_o inconvenience_n and_o misery_n to_o which_o their_o body_n likewise_o be_v expose_v either_o as_o a_o consequence_n or_o a_o punishment_n of_o the_o corruption_n of_o their_o mind_n in_o restore_v

body_n that_o sound_a constitution_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n which_o will_v have_v be_v the_o effect_n or_o the_o reward_n of_o innocency_n and_o integrity_n in_o a_o word_n salvation_n consist_v in_o reconcile_a god_n to_o man_n and_o man_n to_o god_n and_o in_o all_o the_o bless_a fruit_n of_o such_o a_o reconciliation_n which_o how_o many_o and_o how_o great_a they_o will_v be_v we_o be_v not_o able_a in_o this_o imperfect_a state_n so_o much_o as_o to_o conjecture_v this_o will_v be_v best_a understand_v by_o such_o as_o shall_v partake_v of_o this_o salvation_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v full_o accomplish_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n it_o may_v satisfy_v and_o encourage_v we_o to_o believe_v that_o they_o will_v bear_v a_o proportion_n to_o the_o bounty_n of_o god_n and_o the_o

another_o instance_n wherein_o our_o mediator_n glorify_v the_o attribute_n of_o god_n by_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n but_o he_o do_v so_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n by_o all_o the_o
