Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
Herein Christ manifested his zeal of Gods glory (for the more were brought to God, the more glory redounded to God) and also his good respect to others: for it was a singular benefit, an high honour, to be, by and with Christ, presented to God. He thus makes them partakers of his own glory, John 14. 3. & 17. 21, &c.

He thus makes them partakers of his own glory, Iohn 14. 3. & 17. 21, &c.
They whose hearts are inflamed with a zeal of Gods glory, and filled with love of their brethren, will be like minded: they will endeavour to lead on others with them in such courses as may bring them to God. Such a Magistrate will say, Behold I AND my subjects: Such a Minister, Behold I AND my people: Such a Father, Behold I AND my children: Such a Master, Behold I AND my servants: Such a Tutor, Behold I AND my pupils: So others that have Charge.
Such, as they honour God and do good unto others, so they do much promote their own glory. For they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and they that turn many to righteousness, as the stars for ever and ever, Dan. 12. 3.
