I. It reveals that Infinite Love, Mercy, Grace, and Goodness of God […] to lost and undone Sinners, which astonisheth the very Angels of God to behold;1 To make all Men see what is the Fellowship of the Mystery, which from the beginning of the World hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent, that now unto the Principalities and Powers in Heavenly places, might be known by the Church, the manifold Wisdom of God. The Good Angels are not Teachers of these Mysteries, but Learners and Admirers of them; the Gospel is to them as a Mirror, or Looking-glass, to behold and contemplate the Divine Wisdom of God in every appearance of it, but especially in this the last and great Revelation thereof.
