unbelief_n be_v overrule_v by_o god_n providence_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o christ._n his_o incredulity_n be_v a_o occasion_n to_o manifest_v the_o certainty_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n if_o credulous_a man_n or_o those_o hasty_a of_o belief_n have_v only_o see_v christ_n their_o report_n have_v be_v liable_a to_o suspicion_n solomon_n make_v it_o one_o of_o his_o proverb_n the_o simple_a believe_v every_o word_n here_o be_v one_o that_o have_v sturdy_a and_o pertinacious_a doubt_n yet_o bring_v at_o last_o to_o yield_v however_o this_o be_v a_o instance_n of_o the_o proneness_n of_o our_o heart_n to_o unbelief_n especial_o if_o we_o have_v not_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n under_o the_o view_n of_o the_o sense_n and_o how_o apt_a we_o be_v to_o give_v law_n to_o heaven_n and_o require_v our_o term_n of_o god_n 3._o christ_n condescension_n in_o two_o thing_n 1._o in_o appear_v again_o verse_n 26._o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o next_o week_n to_o show_v how_o ready_a he_o be_v to_o honour_n and_o bless_v his_o own_o day_n and_o to_o give_v satisfaction_n to_o poor_a doubt_v soul_n by_o come_v again_o to_o they_o and_o it_o be_v well_o thomas_n be_v there_o at_o this_o time_n 2._o in_o give_v thomas_n the_o satisfaction_n of_o sense_n verse_n 27._o reach_v hither_o thy_o finger_n and_o behold_v my_o hand_n and_o reach_v hither_o thy_o hand_n and_o thrust_v it_o into_o my_o side_n with_o what_o mildness_n do_v our_o lord_n treat_v he_o though_o under_o such_o a_o distemper_n unbelief_n be_v so_o hateful_a to_o christ_n that_o he_o be_v very_o careful_a to_o have_v it_o remove_v and_o in_o condescension_n grant_v what_o be_v his_o fault_n to_o seek_v 4._o the_o next_o thing_n be_v thomas_n his_o faith_n verse_n 28._o and_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n he_o presume_v not_o to_o touch_v christ_n but_o content_v himself_o only_o to_o see_v he_o and_o have_v see_v he_o make_v a_o good_a confession_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 1._o observe_v the_o two_o title_n give_v to_o christ_n god_n and_o lord_n he_o be_v god_n the_o fountain_n of_o all_o our_o happiness_n and_o lord_n as_o he_o have_v a_o dominion_n over_o we_o to_o guide_v and_o dispose_v of_o we_o at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n 2._o observe_v the_o appropriation_n or_o personal_a application_n to_o himself_o my_o god_n and_o my_o lord_n hence_o we_o may_v observe_v 1._o that_o god_n leave_v some_o to_o themselves_o for_o a_o while_n that_o themselves_o and_o other_o may_v be_v more_o confirm_v afterward_o thomas_n his_o faith_n be_v as_o it_o be_v dead_a and_o bury_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o now_o upon_o the_o sight_n of_o christ_n quicken_v and_o revive_v we_o must_v not_o judge_v of_o man_n by_o a_o fit_a of_o temptation_n but_o stay_v till_o they_o come_v to_o themselves_o again_o who_o will_v have_v think_v that_o out_o of_o a_o obstinate_a incredulity_n so_o great_a a_o faith_n shall_v spring_v up_o sudden_o 2._o we_o may_v observe_v thomas_n that_o be_v with_o much_o ado_n awaken_v make_v a_o fair_a confession_n than_o all_o the_o rest_n they_o call_v he_o their_o lord_n but_o he_o his_o lord_n and_o god_n 3._o we_o may_v observe_v again_o that_o true_a believe_v with_o the_o heart_n be_v join_v with_o confession_n of_o the_o mouth_n psal._n 116.10_o i_o believe_v therefore_o have_v i_o speak_v 4._o hence_o you_o may_v take_v notice_n of_o the_o reality_n of_o the_o two_o nature_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o christ_n person_n for_o he_o be_v both_o deus_n &_o dominus_fw-la but_o how_o come_v he_o to_o acknowledge_v christ_n godhead_n he_o do_v not_o feel_v the_o divinity_n of_o christ_n in_o hand_n or_o side_n or_o foot_n videbat_fw-la tangebatque_fw-la hominem_fw-la &_o confitebatur_fw-la deum_fw-la quem_fw-la non_fw-la videbat_fw-la neque_fw-la tangebat_fw-la say_v austin_n herein_o his_o faith_n be_v beyond_o sense_n he_o feel_v the_o manhood_n and_o acknowledge_v the_o deity_n 5._o hence_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o those_o that_o be_v right_o conversant_a about_o christ_n and_o the_o mystery_n of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n shall_v take_v christ_n for_o their_o lord_n and_o their_o god_n thomas_n say_v my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n and_o his_o confession_n shall_v be_v the_o common_a confession_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a i_o shall_v quit_v the_o three_o first_o and_o insist_v only_o on_o the_o two_o last_o i_o therefore_o begin_v with_o the_o four_o observation_n four_o hence_o you_o see_v the_o reality_n of_o the_o two_o nature_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o christ_n person_n the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v join_v with_o the_o title_n of_o lord_n therefore_o the_o name_n of_o god_n belong_v to_o he_o no_o less_o than_o the_o title_n of_o lord_n thomas_n when_o he_o say_v my_o lord_n he_o seem_v not_o to_o have_v satisfy_v himself_o till_o he_o have_v add_v this_o other_o name_n and_o title_n my_o god_n now_o this_o import_v the_o reality_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n for_o these_o three_o reason_n 1._o those_o thing_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n can_v ought_v not_o to_o be_v transfer_v to_o a_o mere_a creature_n but_o this_o title_n of_o my_o god_n be_v a_o covenant_n title_n and_o so_o often_o use_v in_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o christ_n be_v god_n 2._o to_o who_o true_o and_o proper_o the_o name_n and_o title_n of_o thing_n do_v belong_v to_o he_o that_o which_o be_v signify_v by_o those_o name_n and_o title_n do_v belong_v also_o for_o otherwise_o this_o will_v destroy_v all_o certainty_n of_o speech_n you_o can_v speak_v or_o write_v unless_o word_n signify_v what_o in_o vulgar_a use_n they_o be_v apply_v unto_o there_o can_v be_v no_o reason_v a_o signo_fw-la ad_fw-la rem_fw-la significatum_fw-la from_o the_o sign_n to_o the_o thing_n signify_v if_o i_o shall_v call_v a_o brute_n a_o man_n or_o a_o creature_n god_n how_o can_v we_o understand_v what_o be_v speak_v or_o write_v the_o argument_n be_v the_o more_o cogent_a because_o a_o name_n be_v a_o implicit_a contract_a definition_n as_o a_o definition_n be_v a_o name_n explain_v and_o dilate_v as_o when_o i_o say_v a_o man_n be_v a_o reasonable_a creature_n so_o a_o god_n be_v one_o that_o have_v power_n over_o all_o bless_a for_o ever_o 3._o the_o great_a any_o person_n be_v the_o more_o danger_n there_o be_v of_o give_v he_o title_n that_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o he_o for_o that_o be_v to_o place_v he_o in_o a_o honour_n to_o which_o he_o have_v great_a pretension_n than_o other_o but_o no_o right_a especial_o do_v this_o hold_n good_a in_o religion_n it_o be_v true_a in_o civil_n to_o give_v one_o next_o the_o king_n the_o title_n of_o king_n will_v awaken_v the_o jealousy_n of_o prince_n and_o breed_v much_o inconvenience_n but_o especial_o do_v this_o hold_n good_a in_o religion_n where_o god_n be_v so_o jealous_a of_o give_v his_o glory_n to_o another_o isa._n 42.80_o therefore_o the_o great_a the_o dignity_n of_o christ_n be_v above_o all_o other_o creature_n the_o more_o caution_n be_v necessary_a that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v ascribe_v to_o he_o if_o he_o be_v only_o mere_a man_n and_o it_o do_v not_o proper_o agree_v to_o he_o for_o the_o more_o dangerous_a the_o error_n the_o more_o cautious_o shall_v we_o abstain_v from_o it_o 4._o consider_v the_o person_n by_o who_o this_o title_n be_v give_v by_o a_o godly_a man_n no_o godly_a man_n will_v call_v a_o idol_n or_o a_o magistrate_n or_o a_o teacher_n or_o a_o king_n or_o a_o angel_n or_o any_o create_a thing_n above_o a_o angel_n his_o lord_n and_o his_o god_n but_o this_o be_v do_v by_o thomas_n one_o breed_v up_o in_o the_o religion_n teach_v by_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o chief_a point_n of_o that_o religion_n be_v that_o god_n be_v but_o one_o deut._n 6.4_o hear_v o_o israel_n the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v one_o lord._n this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o sentence_n write_v on_o the_o fringe_n of_o their_o garment_n and_o it_o be_v quote_v by_o christ_n who_o disciple_n thomas_n also_o be_v mark_v 12.29_o and_o explain_v by_o a_o learned_a scribe_n which_o come_v to_o he_o mark_v 12.32_o well_o master_n thou_o have_v say_v the_o truth_n for_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n and_o there_o be_v none_o other_o but_o he_o now_o thomas_n know_v this_o and_o the_o first_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n before_o i_o if_o he_o be_v not_o persuade_v of_o it_o will_v he_o say_v to_o christ_n my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n 5._o the_o person_n to_o who_o he_o speak_v it_o he_o say_v to_o he_o not_o to_o the_o father_n but_o to_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n sure_o as_o the_o saint_n will_v not_o derogate_v from_o god_n so_o christ_n will_v not_o
