oppose_v and_o will_v make_v a_o intolerable_a change_n in_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o body_n of_o divinity_n viz._n first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n that_o threaten_v future-death_n or_o promise_a future-happiness_n but_o the_o gospel_n or_o law_n of_o grace_n second_o that_o the_o jewish_a law_n or_o law_n of_o moses_n have_v only_o temporal_a promise_n and_o threat_n and_o require_v only_a external_n obedience_n which_o yet_o you_o will_v see_v i_o grant_v in_o one_o limit_v sense_n of_o it_o to_o be_v true_a three_o that_o no_o law_n of_o god_n whatsoever_o require_v perfect_a obedience_n and_o so_o no_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o live_v perfect_o or_o free_a from_o sin_n four_o and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o no_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v what_o he_o can_v do_v which_o reason_n be_v only_o true_a in_o a_o sense_n nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n but_o it_o be_v dangerous_o false_a to_o deny_v a_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v what_o he_o can_v do_v in_o another_o sense_n viz._n upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o moral_o insuperable_a wickedness_n as_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o at_o large_a show_v five_o that_o for_o any_o evidence_n we_o have_v from_o scripture_n to_o the_o contrary_a man_n after_o conversion_n or_o after_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v live_v perfect_o or_o without_o sin_n or_o do_v as_o much_o as_o any_o law_n of_o god_n require_v from_o they_o six_o that_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v something_o that_o if_o deny_v to_o man_n enjoy_v the_o gospel_n they_o will_v be_v excusable_a or_o blameless_a in_o not_o obey_v the_o gospel_n also_o these_o follow_a exposition_n will_v alter_v the_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o sense_n of_o most_o important_a part_n of_o

second_o that_o our_o lord_n in_o the_o 5_o of_o matthew_n do_v not_o vindicate_v the_o law_n from_o corrupt_a interpretation_n but_o add_v to_o it_o make_v that_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o that_o
