Souls are precious, they are dear ware; Blood, and that the blood of Christ is their ransom; (Math. 20.28. Rom. 3.2.5. Eph. 1.7. Col. 1.14. Heb. 9.12. Rev. 5.9.) in comparison of which all the treasures of this world are trash, our Gold and Silver corruptible, and our very righteousness a corrupt thing. Deliverances are obtained three ways.
Soules are precious, they are dear ware; Blood, and that the blood of Christ is their ransome; (Math. 20.28. Rom. 3.2.5. Eph. 1.7. Col. 1.14. Heb. 9.12. Rev. 5.9.) in comparison of which all the treasures of this world are trash, our Gold and Silver corruptible, and our very righteousness a corrupt thing. Deliverances are obtained three wayes.
First, By power or plain force; thus Abraham delivered his Nephew Lot when he was carried captive (Gen. 14.14.) He armed his trained servants, born in his house three hundred and eighteen, and rescued him. I may say, the Lord Jesus hath delivered us thus, even by force and power, he hath beaten all our enemies, and having broken and spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it (his Cross spoken of in the former verse) or in himself; that is, in his own personal power, not by any aide or foreign assistance received from men or Angels.
