obligation_n which_o come_v by_o christ_n be_v still_o upon_o we_o and_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o overthrow_v the_o antinomian_a who_o plead_v for_o the_o total_a abrogation_n of_o the_o law_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o if_o this_o shall_v be_v grant_v yet_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v keep_v up_o in_o its_o full_a vigour_n and_o force_n as_o much_o as_o if_o it_o be_v continue_v by_o moses_n but_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o position_n go_v upon_o a_o false_a ground_n as_o if_o our_o saviour_n matth._n 5._o do_v there_o take_v away_o the_o obligation_n by_o moses_n and_o put_v a_o new_a sanction_n upon_o it_o by_o his_o own_o authority_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v the_o law_n shall_v no_o long_o bind_v you_o as_o it_o be_v moses_n his_o law_n but_o as_o it_o be_v i_o now_o this_o seem_v to_o overthrow_v the_o whole_a scope_n of_o our_o saviour_n which_o be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o do_v not_o come_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v a_o new_a lawgiver_n but_o a_o interpreter_n of_o the_o old_a law_n by_o moses_n this_o i_o intend_v to_o handle_v god_n willing_a in_o that_o question_n whether_o christ_n have_v appoint_v any_o new_a duty_n that_o be_v not_o in_o the_o law_n before_o only_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o clear_a that_o our_o saviour_n there_o do_v but_o interpret_v the_o old_a law_n and_o vindicate_v it_o from_o corrupt_a gloss_n and_o not_o either_o make_v a_o new_a law_n or_o intend_v a_o new_a confirmation_n of_o the_o old_a law_n second_o consider_v in_o what_o sense_n we_o say_v that_o the_o law_n do_v bind_v we_o in_o regard_n of_o moses_n and_o first_o this_o may_v be_v understand_v reduplicative_o as_o if_o it_o do_v moses_n the_o law_n give_v by_o moses_n do_v not_o bind_v we_o in_o regard_n of_o moses_n bind_v because_o of_o moses_n so_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v of_o moses_n his_o ministry_n do_v belong_v to_o we_o and_o this_o be_v very_o false_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a current_n of_o scripture_n for_o then_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n will_v also_o bind_v we_o because_o à_fw-la quatenus_fw-la ad_fw-la omne_fw-la valet_fw-la consequentia_fw-la bind_v the_o law_n give_v by_o moses_n as_o write_v for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o intend_v for_o good_a to_o christian_n in_o the_o n._n testament_n be_v bind_v so_o that_o you_o must_v not_o understand_v it_o in_o this_o sense_n second_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o thus_o that_o moses_n as_o a_o penman_n of_o the_o scripture_n write_v this_o down_o for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n do_v by_o this_o intend_v good_a to_o christian_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o this_o can_v be_v well_o deny_v by_o any_o that_o do_v hold_v the_o old_a testament_n do_v belong_v to_o christian_n for_o why_o shall_v not_o the_o book_n of_o moses_n belong_v to_o we_o as_o well_o as_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n though_o indeed_o this_o be_v deny_v by_o all_o those_o that_o be_v for_o the_o negative_a three_o therefore_o we_o may_v understand_v it_o thus_o that_o god_n perpetual_o though_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v the_o present_a subject_n to_o who_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v give_v yet_o the_o observation_n thereof_o be_v intend_v for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n perpetual_o when_o he_o give_v the_o ten_o commandment_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n though_o they_o be_v the_o present_a subject_n to_o who_o he_o speak_v yet_o he_o do_v intend_v a_o obligation_n by_o these_o law_n not_o only_o upon_o the_o jew_n but_o also_o all_o other_o nation_n that_o shall_v be_v convert_v and_o come_v to_o embrace_v their_o religion_n and_o this_o be_v indeed_o the_o very_a proper_a state_n of_o the_o question_n not_o whether_o moses_n be_v a_o minister_n or_o a_o mediator_n to_o the_o christian_n as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n for_o that_o be_v clear_o false_a but_o whether_o when_o he_o deliver_v the_o ten_o commandment_n he_o intend_v only_o the_o jew_n and_o not_o all_o that_o shall_v be_v convert_v hereafter_o it_o be_v true_a the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v the_o people_n to_o who_o this_o law_n be_v immediate_o promulge_v but_o yet_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o other_o as_o they_o come_v under_o the_o promulgation_n of_o it_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o receive_v it_o as_o well_o as_o jew_n so_o that_o we_o must_v conceive_v of_o moses_n as_o receive_v the_o moral_a law_n for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n perpetual_o but_o the_o other_o law_n in_o a_o peculiar_a and_o more_o appropriate_v way_n to_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n may_v be_v consider_v in_o their_o proper_a peculiar_a way_n as_o wherein_o most_o of_o their_o ordinance_n be_v typical_a and_o so_o moses_n a_o typical_a mediator_n or_o second_o as_o a_o academy_n or_o school_n or_o library_n wherein_o the_o true_a doctrine_n about_o god_n and_o his_o will_n be_v preserve_v as_o also_o the_o interpretation_n of_o this_o give_v by_o the_o prophet_n then_o live_v and_o in_o this_o latter_a sense_n what_o they_o do_v they_o do_v for_o we_o as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o jew_n and_o that_o this_o may_v be_v the_o more_o clear_v to_o you_o you_o may_v consider_v the_o moral_a law_n to_o bind_v two_o way_n bind_v the_o moral_a law_n be_v bind_v 1._o in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o so_o whatsoever_o in_o it_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n do_v oblige_v all_o and_o thus_o as_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n it_o it_o 1._o in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o do_v bind_v the_o jew_n before_o the_o promulgation_n of_o it_o upon_o mount_n sinai_n 2._o or_o you_o may_v consider_v it_o second_o to_o bind_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o it_o 2._o in_o regard_n of_o the_o preceptive_a authority_n put_v upon_o it_o preceptive_a authority_n and_o command_v which_o be_v put_v upon_o it_o for_o when_o a_o law_n be_v promulge_v by_o a_o messenger_n than_o there_o come_v a_o new_a obligation_n upon_o it_o and_o therefore_o moses_n a_o minister_n and_o servant_n of_o god_n deliver_v this_o law_n to_o they_o do_v bring_v a_o obligation_n upon_o the_o people_n now_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o this_o obligation_n be_v temporary_a or_o argument_n the_o obligation_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n perpetual_a prove_v by_o several_a argument_n perpetual_a i_o incline_v to_o that_o opinion_n which_o pareus_n also_o do_v that_o it_o be_v perpetual_a and_o so_o do_v bellarmine_n and_o vasquez_n 3._o howsoever_o rivet_n seem_v to_o make_v no_o great_a matter_n in_o this_o question_n if_o so_o be_v that_o we_o hold_v the_o law_n oblige_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n though_o we_o deny_v it_o bind_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o promulgation_n of_o it_o by_o moses_n howsoever_o i_o say_v he_o think_v it_o a_o logomachy_n and_o of_o no_o great_a consequence_n yet_o certain_o it_o be_v for_o although_o they_o profess_v themselves_o against_o the_o antinomist_n and_o do_v say_v the_o law_n still_o oblige_v because_o of_o christ_n confirmation_n of_o it_o yet_o the_o antinomian_o do_v profess_v they_o do_v not_o differ_v here_o from_o they_o but_o they_o say_v the_o law_n bind_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v true_a this_o expression_n of_o they_o be_v contradict_v by_o they_o and_o necessary_o it_o must_v be_v so_o for_o islebius_n and_o the_o old_a antinomian_o with_o the_o latter_a also_o do_v not_o only_o speak_v against_o the_o law_n as_o bind_v by_o moses_n but_o the_o bona_fw-la opera_fw-la the_o good_a work_n which_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o law_n as_o appear_v in_o their_o dangerous_a position_n about_o good_a work_n which_o heretofore_o i_o have_v examine_v but_o true_o take_v the_o antinomian_a in_o their_o former_a expression_n and_o i_o do_v not_o yet_o understand_v how_o those_o orthodox_n divine_v differ_v from_o they_o and_o therefore_o if_o it_o can_v be_v make_v good_a without_o any_o force_n or_o constrain_a the_o scripture_n that_o god_n when_o he_o give_v the_o ten_o commandment_n for_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o moral_a law_n only_o by_o moses_n do_v intend_v a_o obligation_n perpetual_a of_o the_o jew_n and_o all_o other_o convert_v to_o he_o then_o will_v the_o antinomian_a error_n fall_v more_o clear_o to_o the_o ground_n only_o when_o i_o bring_v my_o argument_n for_o the_o affirmative_a you_o must_v still_o remember_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o question_n be_v state_v and_o that_o i_o speak_v not_o of_o the_o whole_a latitude_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o moses_n and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n i_o bring_v this_o argument_n which_o much_o argum._n 1_o prevail_v with_o i_o if_o so_o be_v the_o ceremonial_a law_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n have_v still_o oblige_v christian_n though_o there_o

well_o now_o i_o observe_v a_o great_a neglect_n of_o this_o in_o the_o book_n write_v about_o these_o point_n and_o indeed_o the_o reason_n why_o some_o can_v so_o hardly_o endure_v the_o word_n

the_o antinomian_a before_o he_o speak_v any_o thing_n against_o or_o about_o the_o law_n he_o must_v show_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o apostle_n use_v it_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v strict_o for_o

there_o be_v a_o difference_n in_o the_o degree_n of_o god_n grace_n by_o they_o but_o not_o in_o the_o truth_n and_o therefore_o our_o divine_n do_v well_o confute_v the_o papist_n who_o hold_v

the_o moral_a law_n will_v prove_v it_o no_o instrument_n of_o god_n spirit_n for_o our_o good_a the_o same_o will_v hold_v also_o in_o circumcision_n and_o all_o those_o sacrament_n and_o therefore_o at_o least_o for_o that_o time_n they_o must_v grant_v it_o a_o help_n to_o christ_n and_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o circumcision_n be_v if_o you_o say_v why_o then_o do_v the_o apostle_n argue_v
