Fourthly, Christ comforteth, by virtue of his prayer put up in that very behalf. In that solemn valedictory prayer of Christ, John 17. 13. one end 1why he poured out that so affectionately before his death, was, that believers might have Christs joy fulfilled in themselves. It's Christs joy, and their joy; Christs efficiently, theirs subjectively. So that as there is fullness of grace in Christ to subdue every corruption; thus there is fullness of joy in ⟨p. 213⟩him for every tribulation: and that this may be applied to thee, Christ, who cannot be denied by his Father, for he heareth him in all things, hath thus prayed to God for it. And therefore […] by virtue not only of his death, but also of his prayer and intercession; that thou art made to rejoice.
