But to draw toward an end, what became of this three fold prayer, at the length, it pleased God to hear his sons prayer, and sent him an angel to corroborate, to strengthen, to comfort him. Christ need no angels help if he had listed to case him self with his deity. He was the Son of1 God, what then? for so much as he was man, he received comfort at the angels hand, as it accords to our infirmity. His obedience, his continuance and suffering, so pleased the father of heaven, that for his sons sake, be he never so great a sinner, leaving his sin, and repenting for the same, he will owe him such favour, as though he had2 never committed any sin.
