Again, Jesus Christ declareth, that if he had need or desire of rescue, I could ask my Father, and have more then ten legions of Angels to rescue me. All that Jesus Christ did for us was by voluntary dispensation. Again Jesus Christ argueth, If I should rescue my self from them, how should the Scripture be fulfilled, which have foretold, that thus it must be? Mat. 26.50.53, 54. Again he argueth, Joh. 18.11. The cup which my heavenly Father hath given me to drink shall I not drink it? He had already thrice in Prayer submitted to drink it, and now submitteth again.
