name_n but_o neither_o the_o person_n of_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n suffer_v but_o the_o son_n only_o therefore_o neither_o the_o father_n nor_o holy_a ghost_n receive_v the_o name_n

a_o priest_n to_o have_v offer_v up_o himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o and_o to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o it_o denote_v he_o a_o king_n to_o subdue_v and_o conquer_v the_o enemy_n of_o

than_o the_o name_n jesus_n and_o by_o this_o their_o reason_n be_v rather_o to_o be_v bow_v to_o than_o the_o name_n jesus_n second_o if_o we_o must_v bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n because_o it_o

the_o text_n and_o it_o will_v make_v christ_n their_o saviour_n in_o stead_n of_o their_o destroyer_n it_o satisfy_v not_o to_o answer_v that_o the_o very_a devil_n can_v call_v christ_n by_o the_o

the_o text_n be_v the_o same_o for_o all_o it_o be_v plain_a than_o the_o name_n jesus_n can_v be_v the_o name_n in_o the_o text_n in_o which_o every_o knee_n must_v bow_v because_o it_o concern_v

that_o he_o shall_v receive_v honour_n in_o that_o name_n be_v exalt_v i_o answer_v if_o their_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o because_o christ_n be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n jesus_n be_v humble_v therefore_o he_o ought_v to_o be_v bow_v to_o at_o the_o sound_n of_o that_o name_n be_v exalt_v it_o be_v a_o senseless_a reason_n without_o any_o proof_n consequent_a or_o ground_n therefore_o let_v they_o prove_v it_o or_o cease_v ever_o to_o mention_v it_o if_o this_o be_v necessary_a why_o be_v not_o those_o worthy_n joseph_n and_o daniel_n type_n of_o christ_n humiliation_n as_o of_o his_o

humble_v in_o another_o sense_n it_o be_v true_a in_o christ_n though_o it_o be_v not_o a_o ever-binding_a rule_n for_o he_o shall_v be_v always_o honour_v by_o the_o church_n in_o that_o name_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v lay_v down_o section_n iii_o three_o thus_o they_o reason_n we_o receive_v more_o benefit_n by_o the_o name_n jesus_n than_o by_o any_o other_o name_n for_o it_o signify_v our_o saviour_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n they_o prefer_v it_o above_o other_o name_n yea_o above_o jehovah_n itself_o some_o have_v open_o teach_v this_o stuff_n jesus_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o jehovah_n because_o jehovah_n deliver_v the_o people_n from_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n out_o of_o the_o house_n of_o bondage_n but_o jesus_n deliver_v we_o from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v 47._o yea_o mr_n page_n himself_o speak_v very_o mean_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o name_n lord_n which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o jehovah_n for_o everywhere_o where_o the_o septuagint_n find_v the_o name_n jehovah_n they_o translate_v it_o by_o the_o word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o lord_n yea_o though_o he_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o name_n lord_n do_v betoken_v the_o deity_n for_o thus_o he_o say_v what_o tell_v you_o i_o of_o lord_n give_v i_o a_o samaritan_n that_o may_v bind_v up_o my_o wound_n and_o in_o other_o place_n he_o prefer_v the_o name_n jesus_n before_o christ_n and_o lord_n answ._n 1._o i_o desire_v to_o know_v what_o they_o mean_v by_o this_o reason_n if_o this_o be_v their_o meaning_n that_o the_o title_n jesus_n do_v more_o for_o we_o than_o the_o title_n christ_n jehovah_n or_o lord_n it_o be_v most_o ridiculous_a yea_o it_o be_v idolatry_n to_o attribute_v our_o salvation_n to_o bare_a name_n or_o title_n which_o our_o saviour_n himself_o wrought_v for_o we_o but_o if_o this_o be_v their_o meaning_n that_o the_o person_n jesus_n be_v great_a and_o do_v more_o for_o we_o than_o the_o person_n christ_n jehovah_n or_o lord_n this_o be_v as_o senseless_a as_o the_o other_o for_o 1._o this_o will_v divide_v jesus_n from_o christ_n and_o make_v jesus_n and_o christ_n two_o person_n 2._o it_o will_v separate_v jesus_n from_o jehovah_n so_o make_v christ_n not_o god_n or_o above_o god_n and_o so_o in_o effect_n deny_v he_o to_o be_v a_o saviour_n for_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v jehovah_n he_o can_v not_o have_v save_v we_o 2._o it_o be_v a_o absurd_a kind_n of_o reason_v to_o attribute_v temporal_a deliverance_n to_o jehovah_n and_o salvation_n to_o jesus_n only_o for_o as_o much_o as_o jehovah_n be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o good_a temporal_a spiritual_a and_o eternal_a yea_o our_o salvation_n in_o scripture_n be_v special_o ascribe_v to_o jehovah_n or_o lord_n as_o isa._n 43._o 11._o i_o even_o i_o be_o jehovah_n and_o beside_o i_o there_o be_v no_o saviour_n so_o verse_n 14._o this_o say_v jehovah_n your_o redeemer_n so_o isa._n 12._o 2._o the_o church_n shall_v say_v behold_v god_n be_v my_o salvation_n i_o will_v trust_v and_o not_o be_v afraid_a for_o the_o lord_n jehovah_n be_v my_o strength_n and_o my_o song_n he_o be_v also_o become_v my_o salvation_n so_o deut._n 33._o 29._o psal._n 84._o 11_o isa._n 26._o 4._o and_o in_o very_o many_o place_n beside_o it_o be_v therefore_o beyond_o measure_n absurd_a to_o prefer_v jesus_n above_o jehovah_n and_o to_o ascribe_v salvation_n to_o jesus_n only_o for_o if_o he_o name_v jesus_n be_v above_o jehovah_n of_o necessity_n it_o must_v be_v above_o the_o name_n god_n the_o father_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o so_o either_o way_n the_o second_o person_n will_v be_v make_v great_a than_o the_o first_o or_o three_o person_n for_o thus_o i_o reason_n whosoever_o have_v a_o name_n great_a than_o other_o be_v therefore_o more_o excellent_a than_o those_o who_o name_n be_v not_o so_o great_a therefore_o if_o the_o name_n jesus_n which_o be_v a_o name_n peculiar_a to_o the_o second_o person_n be_v a_o great_a name_n than_o jehovah_n which_o he_o have_v common_a to_o he_o with_o the_o other_o person_n or_o great_a than_o the_o name_n god_n the_o father_n or_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o will_v follow_v express_o that_o the_o second_o person_n be_v great_a than_o the_o first_o or_o three_o person_n the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v prove_v from_o heb._n 1._o 4._o where_o the_o apostle_n prove_v that_o christ_n be_v better_a than_o the_o angel_n viz._n because_o he_o have_v obtain_v a_o more_o excellent_a name_n than_o they_o this_o be_v also_o confirm_v by_o the_o analogy_n of_o the_o scripture_n for_o i_o have_v show_v before_o that_o name_n above_o another_o do_v always_o denote_v the_o excellency_n of_o the_o person_n above_o another_o that_o have_v not_o so_o great_a a_o name_n as_o deut._n 26._o 19_o the_o lord_n promise_v his_o people_n that_o will_v keep_v his_o commandment_n that_o he_o will_v make_v they_o high_a above_o all_o nation_n in_o praise_n in_o name_n and_o in_o honour_n so_o isa._n 56._o 5._o the_o lord_n promise_v to_o the_o eunuch_n that_o will_v keep_v his_o sabbath_n a_o name_n better_o than_o of_o son_n and_o daughter_n that_o be_v he_o will_v bestow_v upon_o they_o a_o great_a excellency_n and_o honour_n than_o those_o that_o have_v son_n and_o daughter_n viz._n in_o that_o respect_n or_o they_o shall_v be_v more_o excellent_a by_o that_o name_n that_o he_o will_v give_v they_o than_o they_o shall_v have_v be_v by_o have_v son_n and_o daughter_n therefore_o to_o affirm_v that_o jesus_n be_v abave_fw-la jehovah_n do_v express_o fight_v against_o this_o text_n of_o 1_o cor._n 15._o 27._o where_o god_n have_v subject_v all_o thing_n under_o christ_n foot_n have_v yet_o except_v himself_o that_o do_v put_v all_o

christ_n name_n for_o if_o he_o have_v by_o the_o reason_n above-specified_v he_o have_v also_o prefer_v his_o son_n above_o himself_o the_o answer_n which_o i_o have_v receive_v to_o this_o argument_n be_v these_o three_o yet_o none_o of_o they_o sufficient_a in_o my_o judgement_n first_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o ground_n and_o rule_v above-specified_v hold_v between_o christ_n and_o the_o angel_n and_o so_o it_o will_v hold_v between_o christ_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o creature_n where_o there_o be_v a_o manifest_a difference_n but_o it_o will_v not_o hold_v between_o the_o person_n of_o the_o trinity_n because_o they_o be_v equal_a and_o can_v be_v make_v unequal_a this_o answer_n be_v very_o frivolous_a for_o the_o apostle_n give_v this_o reason_n why_o christ_n be_v better_a than_o the_o angel_n viz._n because_o he_o have_v obtain_v a_o better_a name_n than_o they_o which_o argument_n have_v be_v weak_a and_o uncertain_a and_o he_o can_v never_o have_v
