a. He was delivered for our Offences, and raised again for our Juftification. And therefore, have we a lively Hope, by the Resurrection of Jefus Chrift from the Dead.

b. If Chrift be not rifen, then is there no Refurrection of the Dead, then is the Preaching of the Apostles vain, and our Faith is also vain; we are yet in our Sins: But now is Chrift rifen from the Dead, that we also should walk in Newness of Life. For, in that he died, he died unto Sin once; but, in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewife, let us reckon our felves alfo, to be dead indeed unto Sin, but alive unto God, through Jefus Chrift our Lord.

He that came down from Heaven, to do the Will of the Father, which fent him, when he had finished the Work which he gave him to do on the Earth, and had fhewed himself alive, after his Paffion, by many infallible Proofs, left the World again, and went to the Father; and, being received up into Heaven, he fits on the Right Hand of God: whom the

Heavens must receive, until the Times of Reftitution of all Things, which God hath spoken, by the Mouth of all his Holy Prophets, fince the World began..

a. When the Son of God had, by himself, purged our Sins, he fat down, on the Right Hand of the Majesty on high.

b. He, being received up into Glory, and fet at the Right Hand of God, in the Heavenly Places, maketh Interceffion for us.

c. Chrift is not entred into the Holy Places, made with Hands, which are the Figures of the true; but into Heaven it felf, now to appear in the Prefence of God, for us.

d. He hath afcended on High; he hath led Captivity captive; he hath received Gifts for Men; yea, for the Rebellious alfo, that the Lord God might dwell among them.

e. He bare the Sins of many, and maketh interceffion for the Tranfgreffors.

f. If any Man fin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jefus Christ the Righteous; who, being made an High-Prieft for ever, and, having an unchangeable Priesthood, is able to save them to the uttermoft, that come unto

God by him, feeing he ever liveth to make Interceffion for them. Our Redeemer is ftrong; he shall throughly plead our Cause.

a. No Man cometh unto the Father, but by bis Son Jefus, who is gone to prepare a Place, for us, in his Father's Houfe; and he will come again, and receive us unto himself, that, where he is, there we may be also.

The extraordinary Operations of the
Holy Ghost.

d. Jefus was conceived of the Holy Ghost: And when he was baptized, the Heavens were opened unto him, and the Spirit of God defcended, like a Dove, and lighted upon him; and he was full of the Holy Ghost: and, the Spirit of the Lord being upon him, he preached the Gospel of Peace and Salvation.

a.. And the Apoftles were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and spake with other Tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

b. That great Salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God bearing them witness, both with Signs and Wonders, and with divers Miracles, and Gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own Will.

c. For, to one was given, by the Spirit, the Word of Wisdom, and Knowledge; to ano-, ther the Gifts of Healing, by the fame Spirit; to another the Working of Miracles; to another Prophecy; to another difcerning of Spirits; to another divers kinds of Tongues; to another the Interpretation of Tongues; but all these wrought that one and the self-fame Spirit, dividing to every Man feverally, as he would.
