O Acknowledge God thus, God was in Christ, reconciling the World to himself, 2 Cor. 5. 19. God in Christ is strong to save, strong to help, strong to deliver: Christ is the power of God, and and the wisdom of God, 1 Cor. 1. 18. The glory of his Power, Mercy, Wisdom, Justice, and Goodness, are all united, and shine forth to save Sinners in Christ, and to save Nations, who look to him, and acknowledged him in Christ.

Almighty Power was seen in creating of the World, and his Power in conjunction with his Justice was seen, in casting the Angels that sinned, out of Heaven, and Man out of Paradise; and Divine Power, as it was joined with Divine Mercy, shone forth, in saving and delivering Israel at the Red Sea; but in Christ, the glory of his Power, Mercy and Justice, and all other of his glorious Attributes, are united together in sweet Harmony, to save and help all that by Christ come to him; nothing can hinder our Help and Succour, if we acknowledge and come to him in Jesus Christ.
