CHAP. 1.
THIS Apostle Paul who was the Pen-man of this, and the former Epistle, was a chosen vessel to bear the name of Christ in the World; a glorious instrument to publish the grace of God in Jesus Christ: One of the most famous Ambassadors that ever was upon the earth; One that honoured Jesus Christ ⟨p. 2⟩as much as ever man did that we either ever read of, or ever heard of; all his care was to Magnify, yea indeed to Omnify Jesus Christ; the very name of Christ was as sugar in his mouth, and rolled up and down under his tongue; He himself had tasted upon his spirit much of the sweetness of the grace of God in Christ; and he labours much to make this known unto others, that they might likewise experience the sweetness thereof. And in these two verses there is as much set forth of the grace of God in the Gospel as I know in any two verses together in all the Book of God.
