Thirdly, The Saints interest in this Object, 1Christ in glory and Christ ours; as much of the eternal brightness of the infinite God (as is possibly visible to an eye of glorified sense) will be seen in the humane nature of Christ, (that will be glorious) and as much of that glory made ours, as the Creature can be capable of; this will be joyful, to see all this glory that is put upon the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ, and to see it with propriety, to see it mine! And how mine? Why mine by purchase, he that is the object of this Vision, was the purchaser of it; he bought it for me; yea, he purchased both it and me by his blood; it for me, and me for it; the sight of his glorified body was ⟨p. 26⟩the fruit of his crucified body; as once he gave his crucified body to my faith, so now he gives his glorified body to my sight, to be my portion and my bliss for ever! Oh blessed vision, wherein indeed purchaser, and purchase, and purchased do all meet together, to suffer no more separation for ever! This sure will make the Saints sing their Hallelujahs, 2To him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, and hath made us Kings and Priests unto God and his Father, to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever, Amen.
