Acts 9. 4, 5. Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? There is such a near Union between the Lord Jesus Christ, and the weakest Saints, that a man cannot strike a Saint, but he must strike through the very heart of Christ: Their sufferings are held his, Col. 1. 24. and their afflictions are his afflictions; and their reproaches are his reproaches, Heb. 13. 13. and their provocations are his provocations. Nehem. 4. 4, 5. God is provoked more then Nehemiah. So Isa. 8. 18. compared with Heb. 2. 13. Behold I, and the Children whom the Lord hath given me, are for signs and wonders in Israel. This the Apostle applies to Christ, Heb. 2. 13.
