Rands thus

That

fuch
a
work

tude

But
where ever
fin is

God
works for that

,
the
ftrangeft that
ever
he
did
;
a
work that
bath
io many admirable
myfteries
in

in
the
opening
of

will
declare every way
that
this
foul
is

And this
is
the
bufinefs
I
would now
do,
to open the myfteries
that
are
in

and it
is
to
this end,
that
as
I
might
fer
before you the
great work of
God
in
pardoning
fin,
fo
alío
that
you might
have
higher thoughts
of

than ever you had before,
for
that's
it
I
aim
at, to raife
up the thoughts
of
men to
the
right

point
of

fo

Where
fin is
forgiven, it
is
by means
of
a
Mediator,
be-
tween
God
and
the Soul,
it
is
through
the Mediation
of
the
Sorg
of
God,obferve
ir,for there
is
no point
in all
Religion
is
of
great-
er
ufe

than this
point
of
the way
of
God in-par-
doning
of
fin,becaufe
of
the many
myfteries
of
God
contained
in
it
;
I
hope
I
fhall
make
it
appear
it
is
no
flight
work
and bufi-

Mark
then,when God pardons fin,'tis
always done
through
the mediation
of
the
Son
of
God God
never
pardons
any

a
Prince
does

when
a
Malefac`
for

offended
him,
he
comes and
humbles himfelf,

himfelf
down
at
his

and cryes, I pray
Sir
forgive me,
and
he (ayes,
Well,
I

God
never forgives
any

thus
;
and
yet
it
is
thus
with
people when
they
come
to
God
for pardon, molt
of
then
never think
of
any
other
way. Friends,
there
muff
be a
great

more

for whofoever

of
the mediation and interceffion

the
Son
of
God,
he muff
Rand
up
before
the Father,
and mediate
for thy

:
if
all
the
Angels in Heaven
flood
up
to mediate,
it
would
not
be
fuñcient

but
the
Son

God
alone
