Our Affections that are now scattered on many things, wherein some small Reflections of his Goodness appear, shall join in one full Current in Heaven, where God is all in all. We shall then understand the riches of his Love, that God who is infinitely happy in himself, should make Man for such a Glory, and such a Glory for Man. And that when for his Rebellion he was justly expelled from Paradise, and under a sentence of Eternal Death, God should please to restore him to his Favour, and give him a better state than was forfeited. We shall then understand our infinite Obligations to the Son of God, who descended from the Heaven of Heavens to ⟨p. 37⟩our Earth; and which is more, from the Majesty wherein he there reigned, from the Glory wherein he was visible to the Angelical Minds, and became Man for Men, Redemption for the Lost, to purchase Immortal Life for those who were dead to that blessed Life. In short, then God will express his Love to us in the highest degrees that a finite Creature is capable to receive from Love it self, and we shall love him with all the strength of our glorified powers.
