And as the end of creation so in redemption, 1all is for his glory, and praise, in Ephesians 1.2 how sweetly doth Saint Paul set forth the end of it. To the glory of his rich mercy and grace To be merciful to sinners to give his own son, for God to be come man, not for man in that estate as Adam was in innocency ⟨p. 112⟩but for sinners for God to triumph over sin, by his infinite mercy here is the glory of his grace shining in the Gospel, all is for the glory, and praise of God there.
