verf. There
appeared
to
him
in the wilderneffe
of
Mount
Sina,
an
Angel of
the
Lord
in
a
flame
of
fire
in
a
bufh
:
When
Mofes
faw it
, hee wondred
at
the
(ight
,
and
as
hee
drew
near
to,
behold
it
&e.
Hee had a
fight
of
it
at
a
diflance,
and yet
fo
much,
as
hee
won-
dred
at
it
, and
then hee
drew
near,
and the
Lord
fpake
to him:
So
it
ihould
bee with
us',
wee have form
fight
of
Chrifl,
but
is
it
not
at
a
diftance? wee
hear
a
Minifter fpeaking of Chrift

(the
great
wonder
of.
the
world)
and
it
may
bee
at
the hearing wee are
'rea-
dy
to,
think
,
there, is
fomewhat
in
Chrift beyond
what
wee
have apprehended
heretofore;
I but
I
befeech
you
Brethren, let
it
not
paffe away
fo;
thofe,
things
that
have
been
fpoken
concerning Chrift
,
God
will
require
an account
of;
and
know
, it
is
a
dangerous
thing to
have
the glory
of
Jefus Chrift
to
pafs
by
any foul
,
and
to
do
it
no good
:
If
wee had
been preaching
to
you
of
Moral Vir-
tues,
or
any
deep
difcourfe about
any
point,
fave a-
bout
Jefus Chrifl
, there
had
not been
fo
much danger
of
letting
it
paffe
without
profit
;
but when
God
fets;
before you
the
glory
of
hiseSon,
know,
there
is
a great
deal of
danger upon
the
hearing of
fuch
things without
profit
;
therefore
you
had
need
fay
upon
the
hearing
of
fuch
things,
as
.Mofes
faid,,
That
you
will
draw
near,
.
you
will
.go
and
pray over
thefe:
again
, and
befeech the
Lord
that
hee
would
reveal
thefe
things
unto
you Pray
with
David
,
()Lord,
open
mine
eyes,
that
I
may fee
the
wonderful things
of thy
Law
:
By Lew
there
is
meant
thofe

things
that
were
revealed in the
Word of God;
and
furely upon
our
hearing
what God
bath
revealed in
his
Word
,
wee have caufe
to
pray with more
earneflneffe,
Lord
open
our eyes
that
wee
may fee the
wonderful
things
of thy
