A46354	Several sermons preach'd on the whole eighth chapter of the Epistle to the Romans eighteen of which preach'd on the first, second, third, fourth verses are here published : wherein the saints exemption from condemnation, the mystical union, the spiritual life, the dominion of sin and the spirits agency in freeing from it, the law's inability to justifie and save, Christ's mission, eternal sonship, incarnation, his being an expiatory sacrifice, fulfilling the laws righteousness (which is imputed to believers) are opened, confirmed, vindicated, and applied / by Tho.

upon_o and_o send_v to_o sea_n again_o upon_o a_o voyage_n far_o more_o tedious_a and_o dangerous_a than_o the_o former_a this_o be_v my_o case_n when_o i_o have_v but_o just_a set_v my_o foot_n on_o

off_o of_o my_o hand_n after_o a_o very_a short_a respite_n i_o set_v upon_o this_o of_o print_v wherein_o what_o progress_n i_o have_v make_v this_o volume_n which_o i_o publish_v as_o a_o

upon_o the_o various_a head_n discuss_v therein_o to_o weigh_v the_o great_a latitude_n and_o importance_n of_o those_o head_n and_o i_o hope_v they_o will_v then_o be_v satisfy_v that_o in_o the_o due_a handle_n of_o so_o many_o and_o so_o material_a thing_n less_o can_v not_o well_o be_v speak_v i_o do_v indeed_o design_n at_o first_o to_o have_v go_v much_o far_a but_o afterward_o i_o see_v the_o work_n grow_v so_o much_o upon_o i_o these_o verse_n be_v as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v grasp_v in_o one_o book_n and_o the_o apostle_n end_v with_o they_o the_o first_o part_n of_o his_o discourse_n viz_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o predicate_v in_o the_o proposition_n there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n etc._n etc._n i_o think_v without_o any_o unhandsome_a disjoin_v of_o the_o word_n i_o may_v there_o break_v off_o what_o come_v after_o in_o the_o follow_a verse_n wherein_o there_o be_v the_o illustration_n of_o the_o subject_a who_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n etc._n etc._n shall_v next_o be_v insist_v upon_o if_o god_n permit_v §_o 8._o when_o i_o say_v that_o what_o i_o preach_v be_v here_o publish_v i_o will_v not_o be_v misunderstand_v as_o if_o i_o have_v not_o vary_v in_o the_o latter_a from_o the_o former_a for_o i_o acknowledge_v i_o have_v vary_v very_o much_o and_o that_o too_o not_o only_o in_o word_n and_o expression_n but_o in_o several_a place_n even_o in_o the_o very_a method_n and_o matter_n which_o alteration_n proceed_v not_o only_o from_o my_o infelicity_n that_o i_o can_v twice_o do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o same_o way_n but_o also_o because_o i_o find_v upon_o the_o review_n of_o what_o i_o have_v do_v second_o thought_n to_o be_v necessary_a add_v to_o this_o too_o there_o must_v be_v a_o difference_n when_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o the_o ear_n and_o when_o with_o the_o eye_n for_o that_o style_n and_o method_n yea_o and_o matter_n too_o which_o be_v proper_a for_o the_o one_o be_v not_o always_o so_o for_o the_o other_o i_o hope_v therefore_o none_o will_v be_v severe_a against_o i_o because_o of_o these_o variation_n but_o if_o any_o will_v be_v so_o let_v they_o be_v sure_a that_o they_o themselves_o do_v wear_v but_o the_o same_o clothes_n abroad_o which_o they_o do_v at_o home_n which_o i_o think_v few_o do_v §_o 9_o the_o matter_n in_o the_o first_o and_o second_o verse_n be_v comparative_o more_o plain_a and_o practical_a in_o go_v over_o they_o i_o have_v to_o the_o best_a of_o my_o remembrance_n vary_v but_o little_a but_o in_o the_o three_o and_o four_o verse_n where_o the_o matter_n be_v more_o deep_a and_o controversal_a there_o i_o have_v vary_v much_o more_o they_o point_v i_o to_o christ_n natural_a sonship_n incarnation_n sacrifice_n for_o sin_n etc._n etc._n which_o excellent_a head_n i_o do_v not_o pass_v over_o in_o preach_v without_o some_o considerable_a enlargement_n upon_o they_o but_o have_v i_o then_o so_o full_o handle_v they_o as_o here_o i_o do_v i_o shall_v but_o have_v tire_v and_o perplex_v the_o generality_n of_o private_a auditor_n and_o scarce_o have_v edify_v they_o indeed_o these_o be_v point_n especial_o if_o large_o and_o thorough_o discuss_v much_o more_o proper_a for_o a_o reader_n who_o thought_n may_v dwell_v upon_o they_o he_o have_v they_o fix_v before_o he_o than_o for_o a_o hearer_n who_o through_o the_o constant_a succession_n of_o new_a matter_n the_o slowness_n of_o understanding_n the_o weakness_n of_o memory_n be_v not_o so_o able_a to_o take_v they_o in_o or_o to_o judge_v a-right_a of_o they_o upon_o this_o consideration_n i_o have_v here_o add_v and_o insert_v many_o thing_n which_o then_o i_o omit_v hope_v that_o as_o what_o i_o then_o speak_v be_v not_o too_o little_a for_o hearer_n so_o that_o what_o i_o now_o write_v will_v not_o be_v too_o much_o for_o reader_n §_o 10._o reader_n i_o hope_v in_o the_o perusal_n of_o this_o book_n thou_o will_v find_v that_o thing_n of_o a_o

to_o own_o that_o there_o be_v in_o it_o several_a thing_n of_o another_o nature_n i_o mean_v controversial_a which_o i_o neither_o can_v nor_o in_o truth_n do_v desire_v to_o avoid_v as_o to_o controversy_n more_o nice_a and_o curious_a than_o necessary_a and_o profitable_a none_o delight_v in_o they_o less_o than_o myself_o who_o will_v love_v to_o walk_v in_o the_o midst_n '_o of_o
