strict_a rule_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v by_o way_n of_o command_n but_o denote_v any_o heavenly_a doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v promise_n or_o precept_n he_o that_o distinguish_v well_o teach_v 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 law_n be_v because_o they_o attend_v to_o the_o use_n of_o the_o word_n in_o english_a or_o the_o greek_a word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o lex_n as_o it_o be_v define_v by_o tully_n and_o

〈◊〉_d do_v comprehend_v more_o for_o that_o do_v not_o only_o signify_v strict_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v but_o it_o denote_v large_o any_o heavenly_a doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v promise_n or_o precept_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n which_o in_o some_o sense_n will_v be_v a_o contradiction_n and_o in_o some_o place_n where_o the_o word_n law_n be_v use_v absolute_o it_o be_v much_o question_v whether_o he_o mean_v the_o law_n or_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o he_o call_v it_o a_o law_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o as_o

hebraisme_n as_o signify_v that_o in_o general_a which_o do_v declare_v and_o teach_v the_o will_n of_o god_n the_o hebrew_n have_v a_o more_o strict_a word_n for_o precept_n and_o that_o be_v 〈◊〉_d

the_o roman_n and_o galatian_n indeed_o this_o be_v a_o dispute_n between_o papist_n and_o we_o in_o what_o sense_n the_o law_n be_v take_v for_o the_o papist_n will_v have_v it_o understand_v only_o of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o dispute_n be_v about_o the_o observation_n of_o those_o legal_a ceremony_n as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n but_o the_o apostle_n go_v from_o the_o hypothesis_n to_o the_o thesis_fw-la and_o show_v that_o not_o only_o those_o ordinance_n but_o no_o other_o work_n may_v be_v put_v in_o christ_n room_n therefore_o 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 the_o five_o book_n of_o moses_n yea_o it_o be_v think_v of_o many_o that_o book_n of_o the_o law_n so_o often_o mention_v in_o scripture_n which_o be_v keep_v with_o so_o much_o diligence_n be_v only_o that_o book_n call_v denteronomy_n and_o common_o it_o be_v take_v most_o strict_o for_o the_o ten_o commandment_n now_o the_o different_a use_n of_o this_o word_n breed_v all_o this_o obscurity_n and_o the_o apostle_n argue_v against_o it_o in_o one_o sense_n and_o plead_v for_o it_o in_o another_o 2._o the_o law_n must_v not_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n this_o be_v separate_v 2._o the_o law_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n must_v not_o be_v separate_v a_o principle_n always_o to_o be_v carry_v along_o with_o you_o for_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o instrument_n and_o organ_n of_o spiritual_a life_n and_o the_o law_n be_v part_n of_o this_o word_n of_o god_n this_o i_o prove_v before_o nay_o shall_v the_o moral_a law_n be_v quite_o abolish_v yet_o it_o will_v not_o be_v for_o this_o end_n because_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v not_o use_v it_o as_o a_o instrument_n of_o life_n for_o we_o see_v all_o side_n grant_v that_o circumcision_n and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v argue_v against_o by_o the_o apostle_n as_o be_v against_o our_o salvation_n and_o damnable_a in_o their_o own_o use_n now_o yet_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n those_o sacrament_n of_o circumcision_n and_o the_o paschall_n lamb_n be_v spiritual_a mean_n of_o faith_n as_o true_o as_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v it_o be_v true_a 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 those_o sacrament_n only_o typical_a of_o we_o and_o not_o to_o be_v real_o exhibitive_a of_o grace_n as_o these_o be_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n therefore_o if_o the_o apostle_n argue_v against_o 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 against_o the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n i_o answer_v because_o the_o jew_n rest_v in_o they_o without_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o our_o people_n they_o turn_v the_o gospel_n into_o the_o law_n and_o we_o may_v say_v whosoever_o seek_v to_o be_v save_v by_o his_o baptism_n he_o fall_v off_o from_o christ_n 3._o to_o do_v a_o thing_n out_o of_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n

to_o lead_v a_o man_n by_o the_o law_n be_v slavish_a it_o be_v servile_a say_v they_o a_o believer_n be_v carry_v by_o love_n he_o need_v no_o law_n and_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o chrysostome_n have_v some_o such_o hyperbolical_a expression_n upon_o the_o word_n follow_v the_o law_n be_v not_o put_v for_o the_o righteous_a but_o this_o be_v very_o weak_a to_o oppose_v the_o efficient_a
