not_o that_o you_o may_v be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o world_n hence_o observe_v that_o no_o man_n die_v but_o god_n do_v take_v he_o away_o be_v our_o life_n in_o our_o own_o hand_n we_o shall_v

out_o of_o the_o world_n but_o that_o thou_o will_v keep_v they_o from_o fall_v into_o sin_n from_o fall_v final_o away_o from_o thou_o here_o be_v my_o prayer_n that_o thou_o will_v keep_v they_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o world_n hence_o observe_v doctrine_n 5_o doctrine_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o great_a comfort_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n that_o they_o have_v the_o prayer_n of_o

devil_n temptation_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o world_n do_v this_o be_v the_o great_a prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n now_o there_o be_v two_o query_n that_o i_o shall_v answer_v resolu●d_v two_o query_n resolu●d_v query_n 1_o it_o be_v true_a may_n a_o perplex_a heart_n say_v i_o do_v believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v pray_v for_o his_o eleven_o apostle_n that_o god_n will_v keep_v they_o from_o the_o devil_n temptation_n and_o from_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n but_o do_v christ_n pray_v for_o i_o that_o have_v live_v so_o may_v hundred_o of_o year_n since_o that_o time_n answer_v jesus_n christ_n know_v that_o this_o objection_n will_v arise_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o people_n in_o follow_v age_n therefore_o christ_n himself_o resolve_v this_o objection_n 20_o ●ohn_n 17_o 20_o john_n 17.20_o neither_o pray_v i_o for_o these_o alone_a but_o for_o they_o also_o which_o shall_v believe_v on_o i_o through_o their_o word_n christ_n do_v not_o say_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o he_o shall_v then_o contradict_v his_o former_a assertion_n in_o the_o nine_o verse_n where_o he_o say_v i_o pray_v not_o for_o the_o world_n but_o for_o they_o that_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o for_o they_o be_v thou_o 1._o all_o that_o god_n the_o father_n have_v give_v to_o christ_n all_o believer_n be_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o christ_n prayer_n but_o not_o all_o the_o world_n 2._o again_o he_o do_v not_o say_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o that_o do_v believe_v for_o than_o it_o may_v have_v be_v confine_v to_o the_o believer_n of_o that_o time_n wherein_o christ_n live_v upon_o earth_n but_o i_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o shall_v believe_v so_o that_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o keep_v from_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o world_n do_v extend_v to_o all_o believer_n to_o the_o world_n end_n 3._o again_o he_o do_v not_o say_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o jew_n that_o shall_v believe_v but_o he_o say_v for_o all_o in_o general_a whether_o jew_n or_o gentile_a barbarian_a or_o sythian_a bond_n or_o free_a what_o or_o who_o soever_o they_o be_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o that_o shall_v believe_v this_o prayer_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o impail_v or_o confine_v to_o the_o apostle_n alone_o but_o the_o efficacy_n and_o benefit_n thereof_o be_v transfuse_v to_o all_o believer_n to_o the_o world_n end_n it_o be_v a_o good_a observation_n of_o jerome_n jerome_n jerome_n say_v he_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o that_o have_v shed_v their_o blood_n for_o i_o then_o only_o the_o martyr_n shall_v have_v benefit_n by_o christ_n neither_o do_v christ_n say_v i_o pray_v for_o all_o that_o convert_v soul_n unto_o i_o then_o only_a preacher_n shall_v have_v benefit_n by_o christ_n but_o i_o pray_v for_o you_o that_o do_v and_o shall_v believe_v in_o i_o and_o thus_o every_o christian_a have_v a_o share_n and_o benefit_n in_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n query_n 2_o a_o second_o querie_n be_v this_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o may_n some_o say_v that_o when_o christ_n be_v upon_o the_o earth_n his_o prayer_n then_o be_v of_o use_n but_o can_v i_o imagine_v to_o have_v fruit_n and_o benefit_n by_o that_o prayer_n which_o christ_n make_v then_o on_o earth_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 〈…〉_o 〈…〉_o that_o the_o efficacy_n of_o christ_n prayer_n do_v continue_v after_o christ_n time_n as_o may_v appear_v by_o this_o illustration_n if_o stephen_n prayer_n be_v come_v efficacious_a for_o saul_n conversion_n 〈…〉_o 〈…〉_o after_o stephen_n be_v by_o his_o consent_n stone_v to_o death_n for_o stephen_n as_o he_o be_v die_v 〈…〉_o 〈…〉_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o forgive_v they_o then_o shall_v not_o the_o prayer_n of_o christ_n himself_o become_v efficacious_a after_o his_o death_n again_o christ_n himself_o say_v that_o his_o prayer_n on_o earth_n shall_v be_v for_o all_o those_o that_o shall_v believe_v afterward_o so_o that_o this_o very_a prayer_n of_o christ_n to_o god_n the_o father_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o evil_n be_v as_o efficacious_a in_o this_o generation_n and_o will_v be_v to_o the_o world_n end_n as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o very_a hour_n when_o it_o be_v make_v second_o suppose_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o efficacious_a now_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n to_o be_v make_v but_o that_o christ_n intercession_n now_o in_o heaven_n be_v efficacious_a for_o he_o sit_v at_o god_n right_a hand_n make_v intercession_n rom._n 8.34_o who_o be_v he_o that_o can_v condemn_v it_o be_v christ_n that_o die_v yea_o rather_o that_o be_v rise_v again_o who_o be_v even_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n who_o also_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o so_o heb._n 9.24_o christ_n be_v enter_v into_o heaven_n itself_o now_o to_o appear_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n for_o we_o and_o heb._n 7.25_o wherefore_o he_o be_v able_a to_o save_v they_o to_o the_o utmost_a that_o be_v perpetual_o and_o perfect_o that_o come_v unto_o god_n by_o he_o see_v he_o ever_o live_v to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o so_o that_o here_o be_v thy_o comfort_n that_o though_o it_o shall_v be_v true_a that_o the_o efficacy_n of_o this_o prayer_n do_v not_o continue_v to_o this_o generation_n yet_o it_o be_v undoubted_o true_a that_o the_o efficacy_n of_o christ_n intercession_n now_o in_o heaven_n do_v continu_a for_o you_o to_o the_o world_n end_n christ_n live_v for_o ever_o to_o make_v intercession_n for_o you_o now_o i_o shall_v handle_v 6_o practical_a inference_n which_o this_o doctrine_n do_v afford_v unto_o we_o doctrine_n 6_o practical_a inference_n from_o this_o doctrine_n be_v it_o so_o that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v pray_v for_o all_o his_o people_n viz._n disciple_n then_o and_o believer_n now_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v keep_v from_o evil_n whilst_o they_o live_v in_o this_o world_n then_o hence_o i_o infer_v inference_n 1_o 1._o that_o therefore_o we_o ourselves_o shall_v entreat_v god_n prayer_n christ_n prayer_n shall_v not_o exclude_v our_o prayer_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o evil_n jesus_n christ_n prayer_n for_o we_o shall_v not_o exclude_v our_o own_o pray_v for_o ourselves_o christ_n do_v never_o so_o intend_v to_o pray_v to_o his_o father_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o sin_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v careless_a &_o never_o pray_v to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o sin_n although_o christ_n pray_v to_o keep_v

we_o from_o evil_n yet_o we_o must_v also_o pray_v for_o so_o he_o teach_v math._n 6.13_o and_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n but_o deliver_v we_o from_o evil_n which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o this_o in_o the_o text._n gerard_n gerard_n it_o be_v a_o observation_n of_o gerard_n in_o his_o harmony_n say_v he_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o meritorious_a but_o they_o be_v also_o exemplary_a to_o teach_v we_o what_o and_o how_o we_o shall_v pray_v do_v christ_n pray_v that_o i_o may_v be_v keep_v from_o sin_n from_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o time_n and_o place_n wherein_o i_o live_v shall_v not_o this_o then_o teach_v i_o to_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v keep_v i_o from_o the_o temptation_n and_o snare_n that_o i_o may_v meet_v withal_o in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o lie_v in_o my_o way_n to_o heaven_n christ_n prayer_n must_v not_o exclude_v thy_o prayer_n it_o be_v say_v luke_n 22.40_o and_o when_o he_o be_v at_o the_o place_n be_v say_v unto_o they_o pray_v that_o you_o enter_v not_o into_o temptation_n it_o be_v not_o for_o they_o to_o say_v christ_n pray_v for_o we_o therefore_o what_o need_v we_o pray_v for_o ourselves_o no_o say_v christ_n though_o i_o pray_v for_o you_o yet_o pray_v for_o yourselves_o also_o that_o you_o enter_v not_o into_o temptation_n this_o be_v my_o first_o inference_n christ_n prayer_n must_v not_o exclude_v our_o prayer_n inference_n 2_o 2._o be_v this_o a_o truth_n that_o christ_n pray_v to_o keep_v you_o from_o evil_n in_o the_o world_n then_o let_v this_o be_v a_o comfort_n to_o your_o
