thou_o open_v that_o be_v one_o lo_o i_o come_v and_o then_o i_o delight_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n and_o thy_o law_n be_v within_o my_o heart_n there_o be_v these_o four_o lo_o i_o come_v say_v christ_n to_o do_v it_o it_o appear_v plain_o that_o there_o be_v a_o covenant_n between_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n from_o all_o eternity_n that_o christ_n shall_v come_v in_o due_a time_n into_o the_o world_n and_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o now_o the_o time_n be_v for_o christ_n to_o come_v there_o be_v many_o that_o will_v agree_v to_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n beforehand_o but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o be_v do_v if_o they_o see_v there_o will_v be_v any_o difficulty_n in_o it_o and_o that_o they_o shall_v endure_v some_o hardship_n they_o hang_v back_o but_o christ_n have_v agree_v from_o all_o eternity_n with_o his_o father_n that_o at_o such_o a_o time_n he_o will_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n upon_o he_o and_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o man_n sin_n and_o all_o that_o he_o may_v reconcile_v sinner_n unto_o himself_o this_o be_v the_o agreement_n now_o the_o time_n approach_v for_o he_o to_o come_v and_o undertake_v this_o great_a work_n when_o the_o time_n come_v observe_v now_o how_o christ_n heart_n be_v in_o it_o he_o do_v not_o hang_v back_o he_o do_v not_o repent_v he_o of_o the_o covenant_n but_o i_o come_v i_o come_v say_v christ_n as_o we_o use_v to_o express_v ourselves_o when_o we_o be_v call_v to_o do_v a_o thing_n that_o we_o love_v to_o do_v we_o say_v i_o come_v i_o come_v now_o the_o time_n be_v come_v for_o you_o to_o do_v that_o which_o you_o undertake_v to_o do_v to_o go_v into_o the_o world_n to_o take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v make_v in_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o to_o bear_v my_o wrath_n and_o to_o satisfy_v my_o justice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n i_o come_v i_o come_v say_v christ_n and_o he_o do_v not_o

know_v it_o will_v cost_v my_o life_n yet_o i_o delight_v to_o do_v it_o because_o my_o heart_n be_v so_o much_o set_v upon_o reconcile_a sinner_n unto_o thyself_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o thy_o law_n be_v in_o my_o heart_n it_o have_v get_v a_o deep_a impression_n in_o my_o heart_n thy_o law_n that_o i●_n that_o law_n of_o thou_o whereby_o i_o be_o tie_v to_o this_o that_o i_o have_v

to_o bring_v we_o into_o a_o gracious_a fram_a and_o disposition_n of_o heart_n likewise_o and_o therefore_o except_o christ_n do_v both_o the_o truth_n be_v he_o do_v neither_o it_o be_v true_a the_o

8._o i_o delight_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n o_o lord_n yea_o thy_o law_n be_v in_o my_o heart_n what_o be_v this_o will_n of_o god_n certain_o this_o will_n of_o god_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v that_o

way_n of_o reconcile_a himself_o to_o the_o world_n because_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o glorify_v of_o his_o son_n and_o his_o son_n acknowledge_v it_o that_o it_o be_v his_o glory_n and_o therefore_o

death_n which_o be_v the_o accomplishment_n of_o this_o work_n of_o reconciliation_n reason_n 2._o a_o second_o reason_n why_o god_n will_v have_v this_o way_n of_o reconcile_a man_n to_o himself_o be_v because_o in_o this_o way_n the_o father_n himself_o be_v most_o glorify_a the_o attribute_n of_o god_n do_v shine_v in_o a_o great_a lustre_n in_o this_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n then_o if_o so_o be_v god_n have_v be_v reconcile_v unto_o man_n only_o in_o pass_v by_o the_o offence_n and_o so_o no_o more_o to_o do_v for_o now_o shine_v forth_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o wisdom_n of_o his_o power_n and_o of_o his_o justice_n as_o well_o as_o of_o his_o mercy_n not_o only_a mercy_n but_o the_o other_o divine_a attribute_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o this_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n exceed_o bright_a and_o there_o be_v no_o such_o glass_n to_o behold_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o as_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o reconciliation_n we_o indeed_o behold_v and_o see_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o glass_n of_o the_o creature_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o work_n of_o reconciliation_n in_o christ_n there_o be_v the_o bright_a glass_n wherein_o all_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n attribute_n be_v unite_v together_o and_o shine_v with_o a_o transcendent_a lustre_n yea_o there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o lustre_n and_o a_o

therefore_o that_o text_n which_o i_o name_v john_n 13.31_o you_o have_v this_o likewise_o say_v that_o as_o christ_n acknowledge_v himself_o to_o be_v glorify_v by_o this_o work_n so_o say_v he_o
