though
we
doe
not

ofour

for
hee
is
the author and

who
hath
fo

vs
that
he fent

;
nor
the holy

yet
if
we
fpeake
properlie,
our Sauiour
Chrifi onely
can
be called our

that
in

;
firfi,
becaufe he alone
was
ordained
and deputed
to

;
fecondly,
becaufe
he onely
was
God

both
which were

our

that
hee

thirdly,
becaufe hee
