isaac_n and_o of_o jacob_n only_o we_o trust_v in_o he_o not_o by_o moses_n nor_o according_a to_o the_o law_n but_o by_o christ_n and_o according_a to_o the_o gospel_n for_o the_o law_n which_o be_v

christ_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n coequal_a and_o coessential_a with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v perfect_a god_n and_o perfect_a man_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o same_o

for_o ever_o and_o this_o he_o prove_v by_o the_o promise_n before_o the_o law_n by_o the_o type_n and_o figure_n under_o the_o law_n and_o by_o the_o general_a consent_n of_o all_o the_o prophet_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o same_o christ_n the_o christian_a church_n have_v already_o a_o perfect_a knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o this_o world_n and_o shall_v have_v a_o perfect_a enjoyment_n of_o he_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o therefore_o may_v expect_v no_o other_o doctrine_n either_o for_o sanctification_n here_o or_o for_o salvation_n hereafter_o now_o in_o that_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v allege_v to_o prove_v and_o confirm_v the_o new_a it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o substance_n of_o religion_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o in_o both_o testament_n unless_o we_o will_v suppose_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o have_v make_v use_n of_o unfit_a and_o unproper_a proof_n a_o thing_n not_o agreeable_a with_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o prudent_a man_n who_o gain_v his_o knowledge_n by_o succession_n of_o time_n and_o much_o less_o agreeable_a with_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o omniscient_a and_o only_a wise_a god_n who_o see_v all_o thing_n at_o once_o in_o the_o looking-glass_n of_o eternity_n and_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n confirm_v the_o new_a testament_n by_o the_o old_a and_o have_v leave_v both_o the_o old_a and_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o confirm_v we_o than_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o no_o christian_n can_v seek_v to_o weaken_v or_o diminish_v the_o authority_n of_o either_o testament_n but_o he_o must_v be_v a_o enemy_n to_o his_o own_o confirmation_n in_o the_o christian_a faith_n wherefore_o among_o all_o the_o contestation_n &_o contention_n that_o have_v be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n that_o controversy_n do_v least_o become_v christian_n and_o do_v most_o shake_v the_o foundation_n of_o christianity_n which_o do_v seek_v to_o undervalue_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n for_o if_o there_o

the_o great_a enemy_n to_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n who_o seek_v to_o add_v to_o the_o church_n by_o detract_n from_o the_o scripture_n for_o if_o the_o scripture_n have_v

because_o all_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o text_n be_v to_o be_v lay_v upon_o the_o church_n to_o who_o care_n and_o trust_n god_n do_v commit_v the_o keep_n of_o the_o text_n for_o god_n require_v
