Iniquities forgiven,
be-
caufe
forgivenefs
of

it
is the
fpecial
end
of'
all the
Ordi-

:
the
Ordinances
of

in
his
Church,
attain
their
end
in

and
it
is
an
argument
there
is
much blef-

Ordinances of

gave
gifts
unto

upon
Chrifts
Triumphal
Afcenfion
to
God
the
Father,
he
gave this
great
gift
unto his
Church,
that
his
Church
Mould
have
Paftors
and
Teachers ; which
by
the
way,
argues
the
horrible
wicked-
nefs
of
thofe
that flight Paftors
and
Teachers
of
his
Church
;
becaufe
it
is
part
of the glorious gift
of
Chrift
when he
afcend-
ed
on
high
:
Well,
did
Chrift
ordain Paftors
and
Teachers
for
the
preaching the

;
furely
it
is
for
fome
great
end
an
purpofe
that

furely
fome
