JESUS, in this contemplate his mercy, Mat. 1.21. He hath not name for no cause: the Angel gives the For: Thou shalt call his name JESUS; For he shall save his people from their sins. JESUS is his name, and salvation is with him.¹ He that truly knows this JESUS, knows him both God and man, one Person, our Saviour. The word JESUS hath but three terminations among the Latins; JESUS, JESUS, JESUM. Take the three last letters, and they make SUM, I Am, the incommunicable name of God. Therefore as the Apostle did in their Epistles, so let us in our hearts, evermore join JESUS with God the Father. 1. Because^r he that honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father: he that dishonours one Person of the Trinity, dishonours all. 2. Because all good from God to us is by JESUS: for otherwise we may have riches, and honours, and worldly possessions; ⟨p. 176⟩but not have them as mercies. No man comfortably knoweth God but by Jesus: there is no safe venturing on that infinite Justice, without mercy at the right hand of it.

Therefore as the Apostle did in their Epistles, so let us in our hearts, evermore joyne IESUS with God the Father. 1. Because^r he that honoureth not the Sonne, honoureth not the Father: he that dishonours one Person of the Trinitie, dishonours all. 2.
