This sets an high commendation on the sacred Scripture, that it setteth out1 Christ so much as it doth; and that both in the old and new Testament. In the Old by Promises, Prophesies, Types, Figures, and other like means. In the New, plainly, perspicuously, and that in his conception, birth, private life, public Ministry, great works, great sufferings, Death, Burial, Resurrection, Ascension, sitting at the right hand of his Father, continual intercession for us, his power of judging all, and eternal glory.
