Christs temptation and transfiguration practically explained and improved in several sermons /

1. The sins and guilty Fears of Mankind, needeth such a Remedy; we are naturally sensible that the punishment of death is deserved and due to us by the Law of God, Rom. 1. 32. They which commit such things are worthy of death. Now these Fears are not easily appeased, Micah 6. 6, 7. Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow my self before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves of a year old? Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams or with ten thousands of rivers of Oil? Shall I give my first-horn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? Christ came ⟨p. 84⟩and died to free us from them, that we might serve God cheerfully, Heb. 2. 14, 15. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself took part of the same, that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil, Heb. 9. 14. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal spirit offered himself without spot to God purge your consciences from dead works to serve the living God.
