insomuch_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v in_o heaven_n it_o intend_v not_o too_o assign_v he_o some_o peculiar_a place_n the_o respect_n be_v far_o differ_v and_o

the_o earth_n be_v his_o footstool_n not_o that_o he_o have_v any_o foot_n nor_o any_o seat_n to_o sit_v on_o but_o it_o serve_v to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o distance_n so_o far_o or_o wide_o that_o can_v contain_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n which_o be_v infinite_a as_o i_o say_v that_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o we_o must_v bear_v in_o mind_n when_o god_n be_v speak_v of_o unto_o we_o and_o why_o then_o be_v it_o say_v that_o god_n be_v above_o all_o the_o heaven_n and_o why_o do_v saint_n paul_n speak_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n here_o of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v because_o that_o we_o be_v dull_a and_o earthly_a that_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o have_v his_o temple_n &_o palace_n in_o heaven_n we_o will_v tie_v he_o too_o every_o pillar_n to_o

then_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o christ_n intend_v too_o distribute_v his_o gift_n by_o certain_a measure_n and_o thereupon_o we_o have_v too_o conclude_v that_o he_o which_o presume_v of_o himself_o

he_o attain_v such_o superiority_n that_o all_o the_o world_n be_v govern_v by_o he_o and_o he_o be_v now_o set_v down_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n his_o father_n to_o maintain_v and_o
