4. By considering, what a large Expansion and immensity the mighty LORD of heaven and earth is like to choose for revealing His glory in the highest and most transcendent manner to all His noblest creatures; infinitely endeared unto Him by the bloody death of His dearest Son, even ⟨p. 122⟩the Son of His love, through all eternity. Who doth all things like Himself: if He love, it is with a fr•e, infinite, and eternal love: if He work, He makes a world: If He go out with our Hosts, the Sun shall stand still if need be, and the Stars must fight: if He come against a people, He will make His sword devour flesh, and His arrows drink blood: if He be angry with the world, He brings a cloud over the whole face of the earth. If He set His affection upon a mortal worm, that trembles at His Word, and is weary of sin; He will make him a King, give him a Paradise, crown him with eternity: if He builds a house for all His holy Ones; it must needs be a None-such; most magnificent, stately and glorious, far above the reach of the thoughts of men.
