True Christian Love
| From Egypt's bonds and slavery base, | Heb 2. 14. |
| 'tis he tht sets us free; | 15 |
| 'Tis he that doth prepare our Way, | 1 Cor. 10 |
| through Floods and raging Sea. | |
| That Prophet rais'd like Moſes true, | |
| but fruitfuller than he: | Heb. 2. 3. |
| He Law and Curſe, and Types of good | 2. 3. |
| Chriſt, Grace and Truth gives me. | John. 11. 17. |
| My Duty Moſes ſhows, but ſtrength | 2 Cor. 3. 6. |
| &c. none can he give to do, | |
| But Chriſt by teaching gives me Life, | Heb. 7. 15. |
| &c. and Will, and Action too. | |
| The Prieſt that offered only once, | |
| and pacify'd for ay: | |
| And needs not Aaron-like repeat | |
| his Sacrifice each Day. | |
| For Aarons Offering oft did prove | |
| his Offering unperfite: | |
| But Chrift, becauſe it perfect makes, | |
| God ſtill our Sins to quite. | |
| In him all Laws and Types are fill'd, | Heb. 10. 14. |
| in him they have an end: | Heb. 7. 12, |
| No further uſe of them, ſince God | |
| did Chriſt their Subſtance ſend. | |
| No Prieſt by Office now on Earth, | |
| no proper Sacrifice, | |
| No Altar of Materials, | |
| no fixt Place of Service. | |
| The Tent where God dwels bodily, | John. 4. 27. |
| the Temple where the tryſt | |
| Is ſet for meeting of our God, | |
| as reconcil'd is Chriſt. | Heb. 9. 2. |
| &c. He Ark with ready Angels cled, | |
| he Mercy-ſeat of God, |
