Of Communion with God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

He is gloriously exalted above Angels in this his Authority; Good, and bad, Eph. 1. 20, 21, 22. far above Principalities and §. 26 Powers, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but in that to come; they are all under his feet, at his command, and absolute disposal. He is at the right hand of God, in the highest exaltation possible, and in full possession of a Kingdom over the whole Creation; having received a name above every name, &c. Phil. 2. v. 9. Thus is he glorious in his Throne, which is at the right hand of the ^zMajesty on high; Glorious in his Commission which is all power in heaven and earth; Glorious in his name, a name above every name, the Lord of Lords, and King of Kings; Glorious in his Sceptre, a Sceptre of Righteousness is the Sceptre of his Kingdom; Glorious in his Attendants, his Chariots are twenty thousand, even thousands of Angels, among them he rideth on the Heavens, and sendeth out the voice of his strength, attended with ten thousand times ten thousands of his holy ones; Glorious in his Subjects, all creatures in heaven and in earth, nothing is left that is not put in subjection to him; Glorious in his way of Rule, and the Administration of his Kingdom, full of sweetness, efficacy, power, serenity, holiness, Righteousness and Grace in, and toward his Elect; of Terror, vengeance, and certain destruction towards the Rebelliou, Angels, and men; Glorious in the issue of his Kingdom, when every knee shall bow before him, and all shall stand before his judgement seat; And what a little portion of his Glory is it, that we have pointed to? This is the beloved of the Church, its head, its Husband; this is he with whom we have Communion: but of the whole exaltation of Jesus Christ, I am elsewhere to treat at large.
