The pattern of wholesome words. Or a collection of such truths as are of necessity to be believed unto salvation separated out of the body of all theology made evident by infallible plain proofs of Scripture. And withal, the several uses such principles should be put to, are abundantly showed. A project much desired, and of singular use for all sorts of Christians. By N.

3. The third was the eternity of his Priesthood; he is a Priest for ever, he dieth not, as did the sons of Levi, nor doth the efficacy of his Priesthood ever cease. The holy Ghost of purpose concealeth the mention of the birth and death of Melchizedek, that so he might be the fuller type of Christ, who had no father as man, nor mother as God; and of his days there is no end; which last thing is the special consolation, for which I alleged this type. There is no time wherein we can want the benefit ⟨p. 291⟩of Christs sacrifice, if we have access to God, and the throne of his grace; and the rather because God hath sworn and will not repent, Psalm. 110.4.
