Hence we may observe,
1. That there is no immediate access for man to God without a Priest. 2. That there is no Priest that can be properly for man in things pertaining un• God, but Jesus Christ, God-man. None could pacify Gods wrath, None could […] his justice, None could procure his favour, None could purge away sin, […] could bring sinners into Gods presence but Christ.

O• how miserable are they who are without a Priest; They can have nothing to do with God, they still remain enemies to him, as contrary as light and darkness, life and death, and God still remains a consuming fire to them. Such also are they who have not a true Priest, for that is all one as to have no Priest at all.
