abide_v upon_o he_o in_o heaven_n it_o must_v never_o be_v say_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v depart_v from_o he_o who_o be_v the_o sender_n and_o bestower_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n upon_o we_o and_o if_o the_o spirit_n once_o come_v upon_o his_o member_n abide_v with_o they_o for_o ever_o as_o christ_n promise_v john_n 14._o 16._o then_o much_o more_o do_v this_o spirit_n abide_v upon_o christ_n the_o head_n from_o who_o we_o all_o since_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n receive_v that_o spirit_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o which_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o he_o he_o continue_v to_o dwell_v in_o we_o therefore_o of_o he_o it_o be_v say_v esay_n 11._o 2._o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v rest_n upon_o he_o yea_o and_o in_o that_o story_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n descend_v upon_o he_o at_o his_o baptism_n it_o be_v not_o only_o record_v that_o he_o descend_v on_o he_o but_o over_o and_o above_o it_o be_v add_v and_o abode_n upon_o he_o yea_o further_o to_o put_v the_o great_a emphasis_n upon_o it_o it_o be_v twice_o repeat_v so_o john_n 1._o 32._o i_o see_v the_o spirit_n say_v the_o evangelist_n descend_v from_o heaven_n like_o a_o dove_n and_o he_o add_v this_o also_o as_o a_o further_a thing_n observe_v by_o he_o and_o it_o abide_v upon_o he_o and_o then_o again_o ver_fw-la 33._o i_o know_v he_o not_o say_v he_o but_o he_o that_o send_v i_o give_v i_o this_o token_n to_o know_v he_o by_o upon_o who_o thou_o shall_v see_v the_o spirit_n descend_v and_o remain_v on_o he_o the_o same_o be_v he_o and_o further_o as_o it_o be_v intimate_v there_o he_o rest_v on_o he_o to_o that_o end_n that_o he_o may_v baptize_v we_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n the_o same_n say_v he_o be_v he_o that_o baptize_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o at_o first_o descend_v as_o a_o dove_n and_o then_o abide_v as_o a_o dove_n for_o ever_o upon_o he_o and_o this_o dove_n itself_o come_v from_o heaven_n first_o and_o therefore_o certain_o now_o that_o christ_n himself_o be_v go_v to_o heaven_n he_o abide_v and_o sit_v upon_o he_o much_o more_o as_o a_o dove_n still_o there_o moreover_o let_v i_o add_v this_o that_o although_o the_o spirit_n rest_v on_o he_o here_o without_o measure_n in_o comparison_n of_o we_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v safe_o say_v that_o the_o spirit_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o effect_n in_o gift_n of_o grace_n and_o glory_n rest_v more_o abundant_o on_o he_o in_o heaven_n than_o he_o do_v on_o earth_n even_o in_o the_o same_o sense_n that_o at_o his_o baptism_n as_o be_v say_v he_o rest_v on_o he_o in_o such_o respect_n more_o abundant_o than_o he_o do_v before_o his_o baptism_n during_o the_o time_n of_o his_o private_a life_n for_o as_o when_o he_o come_v to_o heaven_n he_o be_v install_v king_n and_o priest_n as_o it_o be_v anew_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o new_a execution_n so_o for_o the_o work_n to_o be_v do_v in_o heaven_n he_o be_v anew_o anoint_v with_o this_o oil_n of_o gladness_n above_o his_o fellow_n as_o psal_n 45._o 7._o which_o place_n be_v mean_v of_o he_o especial_o as_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n at_o god_n right_a hand_n in_o fullness_n of_o joy_n as_o psal_n 16._o ult_n it_o be_v also_o speak_v of_o he_o when_o also_o it_o be_v that_o he_o go_v forth_o in_o his_o majesty_n to_o conquer_v as_o for_o 4._o of_o that_o 45._o psal_n and_o yet_o then_o meekness_n be_v not_o far_o off_o but_o be_v make_v one_o of_o his_o disposition_n in_o this_o height_n of_o glory_n so_o it_o follow_v in_o the_o forecited_n verse_n in_o thy_o majesty_n ride_v prosperous_o because_o of_o truth_n and_o meekness_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o peter_n say_v act_n 2._o 36._o that_o that_o same_o jesus_n who_o you_o jew_n have_v crucify_v and_o who_o be_v rise_v and_o ascend_v god_n have_v make_v both_o lord_n and_o christ_n lord_n that_o be_v have_v exalt_v he_o as_o king_n in_o heaven_n and_z christ_n that_o be_v have_v also_o anoint_v he_o and_o this_o oil_n be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o holy_a ghost_n with_o who_o the_o same_o peter_n tell_v we_o he_o be_v anoint_v at_o his_o baptism_n act_v 10._o 38._o yea_o and_o because_o he_o then_o at_o once_o receive_v the_o spirit_n in_o the_o full_a measure_n that_o for_o ever_o he_o be_v to_o receive_v he_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o he_o shed_v he_o down_o on_o his_o apostle_n and_o baptize_v they_o with_o he_o as_o in_o that_o 2._o of_o the_o act_n we_o read_v now_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a rule_n that_o whatsoever_o we_o receive_v from_o christ_n that_o he_o himself_o first_o receive_v in_o himself_o for_o we_o and_o so_o one_o reason_n why_o this_o oil_n run_v then_o so_o plentiful_o down_o on_o the_o skirt_n of_o this_o our_o highpriest_n that_o be_v on_o his_o member_n the_o apostle_n and_o saint_n and_o so_o continue_v to_o do_v unto_o this_o day_n be_v because_o our_o highpriest_n and_o head_n himself_o be_v then_o afresh_o anoint_v with_o it_o therefore_o ver_fw-la 33._o of_o that_o 2._o of_o the_o act_n peter_n give_v a_o account_n how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o they_o be_v so_o fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_z that_o christ_n have_v receive_v from_o the_o father_n the_o promise_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v shed_v he_o forth_o on_o they_o which_o receive_v be_v not_o to_o be_v only_o understand_v of_o his_o bare_a and_o single_a receive_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o we_o by_o have_v power_n then_o give_v he_o to_o shed_v he_o down_o upon_o they_o as_o god_n have_v promise_v though_o this_o be_v a_o true_a meaning_n of_o it_o but_o further_a that_o he_o have_v receive_v he_o first_o as_o pour_v forth_o on_o himself_o and_o so_o shed_v he_o forth_o on_o they_o according_a to_o that_o rule_n that_o whatever_o god_n do_v unto_o we_o by_o christ_n he_o first_o do_v it_o unto_o christ_n all_o promise_n be_v make_v and_o fulfil_v unto_o he_o first_o and_o so_o unto_o we_o in_o he_o all_o that_o he_o bestow_v on_o we_o he_o receive_v in_o himself_o and_o this_o may_v be_v one_o reason_n why_o as_o john_n 7._o 39_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o give_v because_o jesus_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o glorify_v but_o now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n he_o be_v say_v to_o have_v the_o seven_o spirit_n so_o rev._n 1._o 3._o which_o book_n set_v he_o out_o as_o he_o be_v since_o he_o go_v to_o heaven_n now_o those_o seven_o spirit_n be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v mean_v and_o not_o of_o any_o creature_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o 4._o ver_fw-la of_o that_o chap._n where_o grace_n and_o peace_n be_v wish_v from_o the_o seven_o spirit_n so_o call_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o various_a effect_n of_o he_o both_o in_o christ_n and_o we_o though_o but_o one_o in_o person_n and_o seven_o be_v a_o number_n of_o perfection_n &_o be_v therefore_o there_o mention_v to_o show_v that_o now_o christ_n have_v the_o spirit_n in_o the_o utmost_a measure_n that_o the_o humane_a nature_n be_v capable_a of_o and_o as_o his_o knowledge_n which_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n since_o his_o ascension_n be_v enlarge_v for_o before_o he_o know_v not_o when_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v be_v but_o now_o when_o he_o write_v this_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n he_o do_v so_o be_v his_o bowel_n i_o speak_v of_o the_o humane_a nature_n extend_v all_o the_o mercy_n that_o god_n mean_v to_o bestow_v be_v now_o actual_o to_o run_v through_o his_o hand_n and_o his_o particular_a notice_n and_o he_o to_o bestow_v they_o not_o on_o jew_n only_a but_o on_o gentile_n also_o who_o be_v to_o be_v convert_v after_o he_o go_v to_o heaven_n and_o so_o he_o have_v now_o a_o heart_n adequate_a to_o god_n own_o heart_n in_o the_o utmost_a extent_n of_o show_v mercy_n unto_o any_o who_o god_n have_v intend_v it_o unto_o and_o this_o be_v the_o three_o demonstration_n from_o the_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o he_o wherein_o you_o may_v help_v your_o faith_n by_o a_o experiment_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n his_o dwell_n in_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o there_o not_o only_o work_v in_o you_o meekness_n towards_o other_o but_o pity_n towards_o yourselves_o to_o get_v your_o soul_n save_v and_o to_o that_o end_n stir_v up_o in_o you_o incessant_a and_o unutterable_a groan_n before_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n for_o grace_n and_o mercy_n now_o the_o same_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o christ_n heart_n in_o heaven_n that_o do_v in_o you_o here_o and_o always_o work_v in_o his_o heart_n first_o for_o you_o and_o then_o in_o you_o by_o commission_n from_o

why_o not_o the_o same_o affection_n also_o and_o those_o not_o stir_v only_o and_o mere_o in_o the_o soul_n but_o work_v in_o the_o body_n also_o unto_o which_o that_o soul_n be_v join_v and_o so_o

neither_o why_o this_o affection_n shall_v be_v only_o restrain_v to_o his_o spirit_n or_o soul_n and_o his_o corporeal_a power_n not_o be_v suppose_v to_o communicate_v and_o partake_v in_o they_o that_o so_o as_o he_o be_v a_o true_a man_n and_o the_o same_o man_n that_o he_o be_v both_o in_o body_n as_o well_o as_o in_o soul_n for_o else_o it_o have_v not_o be_v a_o true_a resurrection_n so_o he_o have_v still_o the_o very_a same_o true_a humane_a affection_n in_o they_o both_o and_o such_o as_o whereof_o the_o body_n be_v the_o seat_n and_o instrument_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n and_o

therefore_o be_v in_o the_o whole_a man_n both_o body_n and_o soul_n therefore_o when_o as_o we_o read_v of_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lamb_n as_o revel_v 6._o 16._o namely_o against_o his_o enemy_n as_o here_o of_o his_o pity_n and_o compassion_n towards_o his_o friend_n and_o member_n why_o shall_v this_o be_v attribute_v only_o to_o his_o deity_n which_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o wrath_n or_o to_o his_o soul_n and_o spirit_n only_o and_o why_o may_v it_o not_o be_v think_v he_o be_v true_o angry_a as_o a_o man_n in_o his_o whole_a man_n and_o so_o with_o such_o a_o wrath_n as_o his_o body_n be_v affect_v with_o as_o well_o as_o that_o he_o be_v wrathful_a in_o his_o soul_n only_o see_v he_o have_v take_v up_o our_o whole_a nature_n on_o purpose_n to_o subserve_v his_o divine_a nature_n in_o all_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o but_o now_o how_o far_o in_o our_o apprehension_n of_o this_o we_o be_v to_o cut_v off_o the_o weakness_n and_o frailty_n of_o such_o affection_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n be_v in_o they_o and_o how_o exact_o to_o difference_n those_o which_o christ_n have_v here_o and_o those_o which_o he_o have_v in_o heaven_n therein_o lie_v the_o difficulty_n and_o i_o can_v speak_v but_o little_a unto_o it_o yet_o first_o this_o we_o may_v lay_v down_o as_o a_o undoubted_a maxim_n that_o so_o far_o or_o in_o what_o sense_n his_o body_n itself_o be_v make_v spiritual_a as_o it_o be_v call_v 1_o cor._n 15._o 44._o so_o far_o and_o in_o that_o sense_n all_o such_o affection_n as_o thus_o work_v in_o his_o body_n be_v make_v spiritual_a and_o that_o in_o a_o opposition_n to_o that_o fleshly_a and_o frail_a way_n of_o their_o work_n here_o but_o then_o as_o his_o body_n be_v make_v spiritual_a not_o spirit_n spiritual_a in_o respect_n of_o power_n and_o likeness_n to_o a_o spirit_n not_o in_o respect_n of_o substance_n or_o nature_n so_o these_o affection_n of_o pity_n and_o compassion_n do_v work_v not_o only_o in_o his_o spirit_n or_o soul_n but_o in_o his_o body_n too_o as_o their_o seat_n and_o instrument_n though_o in_o a_o more_o spiritual_a way_n of_o work_v and_o more_o like_a to_o that_o of_o spirit_n than_o those_o in_o a_o fleshly_a frail_a body_n be_v they_o be_v not_o whole_o spiritual_a in_o this_o sense_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o sole_a subject_n of_o they_o and_o that_o it_o draw_v up_o all_o such_o working_n into_o itself_o so_o that_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o difference_n between_o his_o affection_n now_o and_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n man_n be_v not_o to_o conceive_v as_o if_o his_o body_n be_v turn_v into_o such_o a_o substance_n as_o the_o sun_n be_v of_o for_o the_o soul_n as_o through_o a_o case_n of_o glass_n to_o shine_v glorious_o in_o only_a but_o further_o it_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v act_v by_o it_o though_o immediate_o for_o the_o soul_n to_o produce_v operation_n in_o it_o and_o it_o be_v call_v spiritual_a not_o that_o it_o remain_v not_o a_o body_n but_o because_o it_o remain_v not_o such_o a_o body_n but_o be_v so_o frame_v to_o the_o soul_n that_o both_o itself_o and_o all_o the_o operation_n of_o all_o the_o power_n in_o it_o be_v immediate_o and_o entire_o at_o the_o arbitrary_a imperium_fw-la &_o dominion_n of_o the_o soul_n &_o that_o as_o the_o soul_n be_v please_v to_o use_v it_o and_o to_o sway_v it_o and_o move_v it_o even_o as_o immediate_o and_o as_o nimble_o and_o without_o any_o clog_n or_o impediment_n as_o a_o angel_n move_v itself_o or_o as_o the_o soul_n act_v itself_o so_o that_o this_o may_v perhaps_o be_v one_o difference_n that_o these_o affection_n so_o far_o as_o in_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o affect_v his_o soul_n as_o here_o they_o do_v though_o as_o then_o under_o the_o command_n of_o grace_n and_o reason_n to_o keep_v their_o motion_n from_o be_v inordinate_a or_o sinful_a but_o further_a the_o soul_n be_v now_o too_o strong_a for_o they_o do_v as_o its_o own_o arbitrement_n raise_v they_o and_o as_o entire_o and_o immediate_o stir_v they_o as_o it_o do_v itself_o hence_o 2._o these_o affection_n of_o pity_n and_o sympathy_n so_o stir_v up_o by_o himself_o though_o they_o move_v his_o bowel_n and_o affect_v his_o bodily_a heart_n as_o they_o do_v here_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o afflict_v and_o perturb_v he_o in_o the_o least_o nor_o become_v they_o a_o burden_n &_o a_o load_n unto_o his_o spirit_n so_o as_o to_o make_v he_o sorrowful_a or_o heavy_a as_o in_o this_o life_n here_o his_o pity_n unto_o lazarus_n make_v he_o and_o as_o his_o distress_n at_o last_o that_o make_v he_o sorrowful_a unto_o death_n so_o that_o as_o in_o their_o rise_n so_o in_o their_o effect_n they_o utter_o differ_v from_o what_o they_o be_v here_o below_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o his_o body_n and_o the_o blood_n and_o spirit_n thereof_o the_o instrument_n of_o affect_v he_o be_v now_o altogether_o impassable_a namely_o in_o this_o sense_n that_o they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o the_o least_o alteration_n tend_v to_o any_o hurt_n what_o ever_o and_o so_o his_o body_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o grief_n nor_o his_o spirit_n to_o any_o waist_n decay_n or_o expense_n they_o may_v and_o do_v subserve_v the_o soul_n in_o its_o affection_n as_o they_o do_v whilst_o he_o be_v here_o but_o this_o mere_o by_o a_o local_a motion_n

become_v love_v and_o merciful_a unto_o man_n as_o one_o man_n be_v to_o another_o and_o so_o that_o what_o before_o be_v but_o improper_o speak_v and_o by_o way_n of_o metaphor_n and_o similitude_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n so_o to_o convey_v it_o to_o our_o apprehension_n may_v now_o be_v true_o attribute_v unto_o he_o in_o the_o reality_n that_o god_n may_v be_v for_o ever_o say_v to_o be_v
