Parental wishes and charges. Or, The enjoyment of a glorious Christ, proposed, as the great blessedness, which Christian parents desire, both for themselves, and for their children. In a discourse, now put into the hands of such parents, as would be assisted in their duty, by putting such things into the hands of their children. : [Two lines of quotation in Latin]

Where does the WISDOM of God appear in the Glory of it? All the Treasures of Wisdom are laid up in our Lord JESUS CHRIST. It is an Abundant wisdom, a Manifold wisdom, a Glorious wisdom, which darts forth its glittering Rays, in this work of God; The Son of God becoming the Son of Man, and the Mediator between God and Man. Oh! the Glorious wisdom, that furnishes the Mediator, with a Nature wherein to Do and to Die for us, and with a Nature that can make all Efficacious! Oh! the Glorious wisdom that Reconciles the Justice of God in Punishing of Sin, with the Goodness of God in Pardoning of the Sinner! No ⟨p. 15⟩Understanding of man can sail over all […] Boundless Ocean of Wisdom, which •ere is in that Great Mystery of Godliness, God Manifest in flesh. It is a wisdom, •en of Angels, with Amazement, with Ravishment. It is a Plan laid by a God, whose Understanding is Infinite!
