[Luke 1.68, 69, &c. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he hath visited and redeemed his People: And hath raised up an Horn of Salvation for us, in the House of his Servant David; as he spake by the Mouth of his Holy Prophets, which have been since the World began. Act. 2.30. Therefore David being a Prophet, and knowing that God hath sworn with an Oath to him, That of the Fruit of his Loins, according to the Flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit upon his Throne, &c. Acts 3.26. Unto you first, God having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning every one of you from his Iniquities. Act. 13.27. Heb. 5.4.5. And no ⟨p. 69⟩Man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. So also Christ glorified not himself, to be made [or become] an High Priest: but he [glorified him] that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. Vers 9. And being made perfect, he became the Author of eternal Salvation unto all them that obey him. Acts 2.26. Therefore let all the House of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.]
