god_n do_v so_o much_o privilege_v they_o above_o other_o be_v that_o all_o his_o might_n believe_v but_o yet_o some_o do_v not_o imply_v that_o some_o do_v i._n e._n many_o of_o they_o be_v justify_v therefore_o ch_z 4._o 9_o he_o draw_v towards_o a_o result_n come_v this_o blessedness_n then_o upon_o the_o circumcision_n only_o or_o upon_o the_o uncircumcision_n also_o how_o be_v it_o then_o reckon_v i._o e._n if_o abraham_n be_v justify_v in_o uncircumcision_n than_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n come_v not_o upon_o the_o circumcision_n only_o and_o ver_fw-la 12._o to_o they_o who_o be_v not_o of_o the_o circumcision_n only_o and_o ver_fw-la 16._o not_o to_o that_o seed_n only_o which_o be_v of_o the_o law_n and_o then_o the_o apostle_n conclude_v ver_fw-la 23._o that_o it_o be_v

as_o he_o consequential_o affirm_v p._n 53._o therefore_o such_o a_o interpretation_n as_o he_o have_v give_v of_o this_o place_n be_v most_o unsound_a the_o like_a answer_n be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o that_o place_n ph●l_n 3.2_o 3_o 4._o which_o he_o bring_v in_o pag._n 55._o as_o a_o appendix_n to_o this_o second_o argument_n the_o philippian_n be_v also_o revolt_a to_o seek_v after_o

plain_a answer_n also_o be_v and_o may_v he_o give_v to_o that_o other_o place_n gal._n 3.3_o which_o church_n also_o be_v back_o slide_v into_o the_o same_o error_n and_o therefore_o he_o call_v

seek_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n and_o that_o no_o man_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v ever_o justify_v be_v evident_a because_o the_o

ver_fw-la 18._o he_o show_v they_o the_o ill-consequence_n that_o will_v follow_v if_o they_o think_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n for_o then_o the_o inheritance_n must_v be_v by_o work_n that_o

wherefore_o then_o serve_v the_o law_n if_o a_o man_n may_v not_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n to_o what_o end_n and_o purpose_n than_o be_v it_o give_v the_o

thereof_o and_o in_o ver_fw-la 21._o the_o apostle_n direct_o confute_v mr._n patient_n doctrine_n be_v the_o law_n then_o against_o the_o promise_n or_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o promise_n god_n forbid_v by_o all_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o law_n be_v no_o covenant_n of_o work_n nor_o be_v circumcision_n or_o any_o part_n of_o the_o law_n oppose_v to_o faith_n as_o he_o will_v make_v

the_o law_n be_v give_v to_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n as_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n which_o god_n never_o intend_v to_o any_o such_o end_n or_o purpose_n chap._n ix_o the_o next_o thing_n we_o come_v to_o be_v the_o several_a argument_n he_o bring_v in_o p._n 53._o to_o prove_v circumcision_n only_o a_o seal_n to_o abraham_n answer_v i._n first_o because_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o it_o seal_v abraham_n have_v it_o before_o the_o seal_n be_v give_v but_o his_o posterity_n can_v not_o be_v say_v to_o believe_v at_o eight_o day_n old_a therefore_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o he_o and_o not_o to_o they_o a._n the_o seal_n be_v not_o annex_v to_o abraham_n faith_n as_o abraham_n but_o to_o god_n covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n so_o that_o what_o it_o seal_v to_o abraham_n be_v as_o he_o be_v a_o heir_n of_o the_o same_o promise_n with_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n heb._n 11.9_o therefore_o what_o it_o seal_v to_o he_o as_o a_o heir_n it_o seal_v to_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o so_o to_o all_o believer_n as_o coheir_n of_o the_o same_o inheritance_n heb._n 6.17_o 2._o if_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n only_o than_o it_o must_v be_v either_o as_o it_o be_v a_o weak_a faith_n or_o strong_a faith_n 1_o it_o can_v not_o be_v the_o first_o because_o abraham_n faith_n be_v by_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o to_o be_v weak_a rom._n 4.19_o 20._o 2._o if_o it_o have_v be_v give_v as_o a_o badge_n of_o honour_n to_o abraham_n faith_n as_o i_o have_v see_v it_o affirm_v in_o a_o piece_n or_o c._n b._n as_o a_o strong_a faith_n than_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v give_v to_o adam_n and_o noah_n who_o have_v as_o strong_a faith_n as_o abraham_n and_o less_o gospel-light_n than_o abraham_n have_v to_o work_v it_o 3._o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o have_v abraham_n justification_n seal_v more_o than_o adam_n seth_n noah_n or_o any_o of_o his_o predecessor_n especial_o if_o it_o be_v consider_v what_o m._n p._n himself_o grant_v that_o he_o be_v justify_v twenty_o four_o year_n before_o this_o seal_n be_v give_v therefore_o 4._o have_v it_o not_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o isaac_n as_o well_o as_o to_o abraham_n and_o so_o not_o only_o a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n it_o may_v have_v be_v give_v upon_o the_o birth_n of_o ishmael_n and_o abraham_n need_v not_o have_v stay_v for_o a_o son_n of_o promise_n for_o it_o will_v have_v seal_v as_o much_o then_o to_o abraham_n as_o it_o do_v after_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o covenant-seal_a 5._o have_v it_o not_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o isaac_n and_o so_o a_o part_n of_o the_o covenant_n than_o isaac_n not_o be_v circumcise_v have_v be_v no_o breach_n of_o the_o covenant_n direct_o against_o that_o place_n gen._n 17.10_o for_o a_o seal_n the_o apostle_n call_v it_o and_o a_o sign_n god_n call_v it_o so_o that_o have_v it_o only_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n the_o covenant_n have_v not_o come_v seal_v to_o isaac_n because_o the_o seal_n reach_v only_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n and_o when_o he_o die_v the_o seal_n be_v break_v off_o therefore_o 6._o it_o be_v a_o clear_a truth_n that_o as_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v make_v to_o abraham_n by_o promise_n and_o to_o his_o seed_n so_o god_n main_a drift_n be_v to_o make_v those_o covenant-blessing_n sure_a to_o all_o the_o heir_n of_o promise_n heb._n 6.17_o he_o therefore_o deal_v as_o a_o man_n that_o will_v be_v believe_v first_o he_o promise●_n second_o he_o swear_v to_o confirm_v that_o promise_n three_o he_o seal_v what_o he_o have_v promise_v so_o the_o seal_n become_v the_o covenant-seal_a as_o the_o oath_n be_v the_o covenant_n oath_n and_o what_o god_n promise_v to_o abraham_n he_o promise_v to_o his_o seed_n and_o what_o he_o confirm_v by_o oath_n to_o abraham_n he_o confirm_v to_o his_o
