On
the
Excellency
of Chrift.
Scripture reveals
it
to
bee
fo
,
but
how
it
is
(I
fay)-
is
too
deep
a
lea for
any
creature to wade into
,
wee
muff
(land
and
admire
it,
and
adore
God
in
it,
that
hark
revealed
this
as
the
ob;ea
of
our
faith, but to
bee able
to
fearchhow fuch
a thing can
bee,that
that
union can bee in
one
perfon
,
this
is
that
that
is a
wonder
above
all
admiration
:
Indeed
it
is
one of
the
molt wonderful
works
that ever
God
did in the
world ,
to
unite two
fuch
creatures
that
feemed
to
bee
of
fuch
diftant
Natures,
as
the
body
of man
,
and the
Soul
of
man in
one
Pe
rfon
;
to unite
a
peece of
earth , and
a
peece
of
fle(h, to
fuch; a
glorious
thing
as
a
rational immortal
foul
is,
the
union of thefe two together
in
one perfon is
the
greatefl work, for
the
works
of
Nature,
that
ever God
did in
the
world;
David
faw
his
body
wonderfully
and
fearfully
made; but certainly
the union of
the
body
and foul,
the
foul
being of the
fame nature with
the Angels,
that it
fhould bee
united
with
the
body
to
make
but one
Perlon,
this
is
a
great
wonder
in
the
works
of
Nature
But
to.
unite the fecond
Perlon in Trinity
to
the nature
of
man ,
not to the nature
leg
>z
xb.
of Angels,
for
fo
the
Scripture
faith,Chriff did
not
ta'e
upon
him
the
nature of
Angels but the
feed
of Abraham
;
for
if
Chrift
would
have
been
united
to another
nature
, one
would
have
thought
it fhould
have
been
to
an
Angelical
na-
ture, but to
refute
that
and take
mans:
nature
, and unite
it
in
one Perfon
r
that
fo.ir
fhould
be
laid
that
that
Perlon
that
is
God
,
the
fame

Perlon
is

Here is
the great
Wonder inChriflian

:
,
As
from
hence,
that
fame Perron
that
was
the
Creator
of
all
the
world
was
a
creature
;
the
fame Perfon,
I
do not
fay

this
is
the.
wonder
in
Scripture, And
hee,
the fame
Perlon that
is,
the
Lord
of
Man
kinde,
;yetis the
Son
of
Man,the
Son
of Man,and
yet
the
Lord
of

Eternal, Immortal,yet

To
the
Scripture faith,7hey
crucified the
Lordof
glory:
What,
on
God
that
is
the.
Lordof

earth,
