the_o law_n be_v immutable_a and_o eternal_a and_o therefore_o i_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v it_o ●perpetuall_a first_o here_o observe_v that_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v make_v perpetual_a and_o

as_o have_v be_v say_v now_o that_o place_n be_v principal_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n which_o indeed_o be_v abrogate_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o observation_n of_o it_o in_o

but_o of_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o the_o substance_n of_o that_o law_n be_v the_o injoin_v of_o a_o seven_o day_n rest_n unto_o the_o lord_n now_o though_o the_o seven_o day_n

have_v the_o pardon_n of_o his_o transgression_n and_o yet_o the_o moral_a law_n remain_v for_o ever_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n to_o every_o child_n of_o god_n though_o he_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o bring_v the_o same_o obedience_n for_o his_o justification_n before_o god_n again_o this_o property_n of_o the_o law_n in_o be_v unchangeable_a and_o for_o ever_o to_o be_v keep_v show_v that_o no_o creature_n may_v dispense_v with_o the_o law_n of_o law_n god_n man_n law_n may_v be_v abrogate_a and_o change_v but_o god_n law_n even_o in_o the_o least_o part_n thereof_o must_v stand_v for_o

show_v the_o blasphemous_a impiety_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n who_o in_o their_o testamentum_fw-la canon_n be_v authorize_v to_o dispense_v with_o the_o law_n of_o god_n yea_o in_o the_o last_o

be_v most_o horrible_a rebellion_n and_o a_o great_a disgrace_n unto_o god_n three_o from_o this_o property_n of_o the_o law_n we_o may_v observe_v that_o it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o any_o whole_a book_n of_o canonical_a scripture_n be_v lose_v for_o not_o one_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v pass_v till_o all_o be_v fulfil_v much_o less_o than_o can_v whole_a book_n perish_v sundry_a man_n do_v think_v that_o whole_a book_n be_v lose_v but_o that_o opinion_n call_v into_o question_n the_o fidelity_n of_o the_o church_n and_o god_n own_o providence_n in_o preserve_v his_o word_n neither_o can_v it_o stand_v well_o with_o this_o text_n that_o say_v no_o title_n thereof_o shall_v fail_v those_o that_o seem_v to_o be_v lose_v be_v either_o humane_a write_n as_o book_n of_o law_n and_o chronicle_n such_o as_o our_o book_n of_o statute_n or_o chronicle_n be_v or_o book_n of_o philosophy_n such_o as_o solomon_n write_v or_o else_o some_o of_o they_o be_v in_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n for_o the_o book_n of_o samuel_n and_o the_o king_n be_v write_v by_o diverse_a prophet_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v more_o safe_o hold_v that_o no_o part_n of_o holy_a scripture_n be_v lose_v neither_o shall_v ever_o fail_v for_o howsoever_o after_o the_o last_o judgement_n the_o use_n of_o the_o word_n write_v shall_v cease_v yet_o the_o substance_n thereof_o shall_v remain_v in_o

repentance_n they_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n they_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o howl_v and_o cry_v for_o god_n justice_n in_o that_o his_o law_n be_v inviolable_a neither_o will_v 4._o gold_n or_o silver_n pacify_v god_n wrath_n for_o though_o a_o man_n by_o his_o power_n and_o wealth_n be_v able_a to_o overturn_v heaven_n and_o earth_n yet_o that_o will_v not_o help_v he_o though_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v bring_v to_o nothing_o yet_o every_o part_n of_o god_n law_n must_v stand_v for_o ever_o and_o be_v fulfil_v and_o therefore_o whosoever_o do_v lie_v in_o any_o fin_n must_v in_o time_n repent_v humble_v themselves_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o betake_v themselves_o unto_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v fulfil_v the_o law_n for_o they_o or_o else_o the_o cuise_fw-la thereof_o shall_v

the_o law_n and_o so_o proportionable_o of_o every_o godly_a part_n of_o god_n word_n as_o it_o prove_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o it_o be_v a_o most_o excellent_a

doubtinge_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n promise_n especial_o in_o the_o time_n of_o trial_n and_o temptation_n but_o this_o must_v be_v remember_v for_o ever_o that_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n be_v immutable_a though_o man_n promise_n may_v fail_v and_o their_o law_n be_v abrogate_a yet_o no_o jot_n or_o part_n of_o god_n word_n shall_v pass_v unfulfil_v and_o therefore_o they_o must_v constant_o wait_v for_o the_o accomplishment_n thereof_o for_o in_o due_a time_n it_o shall_v be_v fulfil_v six_o we_o be_v hereby_o teach_v to_o put_v on_o patience_n in_o affliction_n for_o they_o

now_o every_o part_n of_o god_n word_n must_v be_v accomplish_v and_o therefore_o christ_n bid_v peter_n to_o put_v up_o his_o sword_n when_o he_o will_v have_v rescue_v his_o apprehension_n for_o say_v he_o i_o can_v pray_v to_o my_o father_n and_o he_o will_v send_v more_o than_o twelve_o legion_n of_o angel_n to_o help_v i_o but_o how_o then_o shall_v the_o scripture_n be_v fulfil_v which_o
