:506p. 188¶1

1. In general. The Prayer is answered (saith Christ) not so much for my cause, to comfort me, (for he might otherwise be comforted) as for you, that ye may believe in me, hearing this testimony from heaven. 2. In particular: He sets down the fruit of his death. 1. On the unbelieving world, they shall be judged and condemned. 2. On the spiritual enemies, and by a Synecdoche, the head of them, Satan, the god of this world shall be cast out, and sin, and death, and hell with him. 3. The prime fruit of all, Vers. 32. When I am crucified, by my Spirit of grace, the fruit of the merit of my death, I will draw all men to me.
