heavenly_a and_o glorious_a life_n than_o we_o that_o die_v to_o sin_n with_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v raise_v up_o also_o with_o he_o into_o the_o partake_n of_o that_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a life_n as_o the_o kill_n and_o bury_v of_o sin_n be_v call_v the_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n so_o this_o rise_n with_o christ_n unto_o new_a of_o life_n be_v call_v the_o put_v on_o of_o the_o new_a man_n this_o be_v to_o walk_v in_o true_a holiness_n see_v all_o this_o be_v thus_o i_o pray_v you_o how_o can_v he_o be_v a_o true_a christian_a that_o do_v continue_v in_o sin_n shall_v we_o continue_v still_o in_o sin_n that_o grace_n may_v abound_v you_o see_v it_o manifest_v that_o a_o true_a christian_a be_v so_o far_o off_o from_o continue_v in_o sin_n that_o contrariwise_o he_o do_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n this_o saint_n paul_n do_v further_o examplifie_v in_o the_o verse_n that_o follow_v namely_o that_o all_o they_o which_o die_v with_o christ_n unto_o sin_n must_v needs_o also_o rise_v with_o he_o unto_o the_o partake_n of_o the_o new_a life_n and_o further_o that_o be_v once_o raise_v up_o from_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n into_o that_o life_n of_o righteousness_n they_o never_o return_v back_o again_o to_o live_v unto_o sin_n touch_v the_o former_a of_o these_o for_o to_o express_v it_o he_o use_v a_o similitude_n take_v from_o a_o plant_n if_o say_v he_o we_o be_v graft_v to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n even_o so_o shall_v we_o be_v to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n thus_o it_o be_v in_o the_o natural_a plant_n as_o we_o also_o do_v know_v that_o when_o the_o science_n be_v graft_v into_o a_o stock_n and_o that_o be_v dig_v into_o the_o ground_n if_o the_o stock_n die_v they_o die_v with_o it_o and_o if_o the_o stock_n do_v grow_v and_o spring_v up_o they_o do_v grow_v and_o spring_v up_o with_o it_o even_o so_o the_o holy_a apostle_n teach_v that_o a_o man_n be_v by_o faith_n graft_v into_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v graft_v and_o do_v grow_v to_o he_o by_o a_o mystical_a and_o spiritual_a union_n to_o die_v with_o he_o that_o be_v as_o christ_n die_v to_o slay_v sin_n so_o he_o die_v to_o sin_n or_o sin_n by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n death_n be_v slay_v in_o he_o likewise_o he_o be_v graft_v unto_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n that_o be_v he_o receive_v the_o sap_n of_o life_n from_o christ_n as_o from_o the_o stock_n into_o which_o he_o be_v graft_v and_o so_o do_v live_v and_o grow_v up_o by_o he_o then_o you_o see_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o holy_a apostle_n that_o from_o the_o near_a conjunction_n which_o the_o faithful_a have_v with_o christ_n these_o two_o thing_n go_v inseparable_o together_o the_o die_a to_o sin_n and_o the_o rise_n to_o the_o new_a life_n even_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n for_o how_o shall_v a_o man_n be_v in_o christ_n and_o separate_v these_o as_o a_o man_n can_v have_v justification_n except_o he_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o if_o he_o be_v in_o he_o he_o must_v needs_o with_o it_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o power_n of_o sanctification_n so_o also_o if_o he_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o one_o part_n of_o sanctification_n he_o can_v not_o be_v void_a of_o the_o other_o if_o he_o be_v dead_a and_o bury_v with_o christ_n he_o shall_v also_o rise_v with_o he_o whereby_o this_o be_v manifest_a that_o where_o holy_a life_n appear_v not_o in_o a_o man_n there_o sin_n be_v not_o slay_v for_o where_o there_o be_v a_o death_n and_o a_o burial_n of_o sin_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o resurrection_n unto_o a_o new_a life_n all_o they_o then_o be_v in_o the_o bondage_n of_o their_o sin_n which_o be_v not_o by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n quicken_v unto_o a_o new_a life_n even_o to_o walk_v in_o the_o virtue_n of_o he_o that_o call_v us._n what_o shall_v we_o say_v unto_o those_o also_o which_o will_v seem_v to_o have_v the_o latter_a without_o the_o former_a they_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v very_o scotfree_a and_o plenteous_a in_o good_a work_n and_o so_o to_o live_v unto_o righteousness_n but_o look_v upon_o their_o life_n and_o examine_v it_o by_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o holy_a word_n of_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v behodle_o great_a and_o grievous_a vice_n that_o reign_v in_o they_o as_o those_o other_o which_o make_v no_o show_n of_o good_a work_n be_v awry_o when_o they_o imagine_v that_o they_o have_v part_n in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o partaker_n of_o his_o resurrection_n because_o they_o have_v no_o holy_a life_n so_o these_o be_v utter_o deceive_v which_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v rise_v with_o christ_n unto_o a_o holy_a life_n and_o yet_o be_v never_o dead_a and_o bury_v with_o he_o in_o deed_n they_o can_v be_v raise_v unto_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n unless_o they_o have_v first_o die_v unto_o sin_n will_v they_o be_v graft_v to_o the_o similitude_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n and_o have_v not_o be_v graft_v with_o he_o to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n what_o then_o be_v all_o those_o good_a work_n which_o they_o work_v that_o together_o with_o those_o good_a work_n do_v mingle_v so_o many_o bad_a vice_n all_o their_o life_n long_o sure_o their_o good_a deed_n be_v even_o such_o as_o the_o alm_n fast_v and_o prayer_n of_o the_o pharisy_n which_o christ_n do_v reprove_v mat._n 6._o take_v this_o for_o a_o most_o undoubted_a truth_n that_o there_o be_v no_o holy_a life_n but_o from_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n there_o be_v no_o partake_n of_o the_o true_a life_n of_o god_n and_o consequent_o not_o of_o any_o action_n of_o that_o true_a life_n but_o from_o hence_o that_o a_o man_n be_v graft_v with_o christ_n to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n and_o therefore_o all_o the_o good_a deed_n which_o man_n do_v that_o have_v not_o sin_v first_o slay_v in_o they_o proceed_v but_o of_o vainglory_n self-love_n or_o from_o other_o such_o sinister_a respect_n what_o be_v it_o when_o a_o profane_a dispiser_n of_o god_n word_n a_o horrible_a abuser_n of_o god_n name_n by_o swear_v a_o covetous_a a_o proud_a and_o a_o haughty_a person_n or_o a_o idolater_n do_v alm_n deed_n the_o poor_a indeed_o be_v relieve_v by_o it_o but_o they_o do_v not_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a before_o god_n and_o now_o touch_v the_o word_n that_o follow_v know_v this_o that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v that_o henceforth_o we_o shall_v not_o serve_v sin_n for_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v free_v from_o sin_n this_o be_v so_o notable_a a_o matter_n touch_v our_o engraft_v into_o christ_n and_o grow_v together_o with_o he_o to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n the_o apostle_n do_v yet_o lay_v it_o open_v further_o and_o so_o come_v to_o that_o other_o point_n which_o i_o note_v of_o not_o return_v back_o again_o from_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n to_o live_v unto_o sin_n but_o here_o now_o the_o speech_n which_o be_v use_v be_v very_o effectual_a to_o express_v &_o to_o open_v unto_o we_o this_o whole_a matter_n as_o the_o old_a man_n crucify_a the_o body_n of_o sin_n abolish_v and_o the_o service_n of_o sin_n from_o which_o we_o be_v free_v first_o what_o be_v it_o which_o he_o call_v our_o old_a man_n this_o you_o must_v understand_v or_o else_o you_o shall_v not_o attain_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n it_o be_v neither_o the_o essence_n of_o our_o soul_n nor_o body_n which_o be_v call_v the_o old_a man_n but_o the_o corrupt_a quality_n as_o also_o the_o new_a man_n be_v in_o the_o pure_a &_o uncorrupted_a quality_n as_o when_o we_o be_v will_v to_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n and_o to_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n it_o be_v a_o speech_n borrow_v from_o the_o put_n off_o and_o on_o of_o garment_n for_o the_o put_n off_o the_o old_a man_n be_v as_o the_o put_n off_o a_o most_o filthy_a garment_n the_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n be_v as_o the_o put_n on_o of_o a_o pure_a and_o clean_a garment_n then_o further_o we_o must_v note_v why_o it_o be_v call_v a_o man_n our_o old_a man_n and_o that_o be_v because_o the_o filthy_a corruption_n have_v by_o nature_n overspread_v all_o part_n of_o man_n both_z within_z and_o without_o all_o the_o power_n and_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v defile_v so_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o pure_a in_o man_n as_o he_o be_v in_o himself_o by_o nature_n the_o power_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n have_v get_v the_o mastery_n over_o all_o that_o
be_v in_o man_n for_o this_o cause_n also_o even_o as_o the_o natural_a body_n of_o man_n have_v diverse_a member_n so_o there_o be_v ascribe_v member_n to_o the_o old_a man_n as_o when_o he_o say_v mortify_v therefore_o your_o earthly_a member_n colos_n 3._o and_o then_o recon_v up_o particular_o those_o member_n of_o the_o old_a man_n even_o unclean_a vice_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o that_o chap._n then_o he_o say_v know_v this_o that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o here_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o death_n be_v note_v by_o which_o this_o our_o old_a corruption_n of_o sin_n be_v slay_v teach_v withal_o that_o it_o be_v not_o crucify_v but_o in_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n for_o he_o say_v with_o he_o this_o our_o old_a man_n will_v retain_v his_o force_n and_o power_n until_o he_o be_v slay_v it_o be_v not_o in_o man_n to_o come_v out_o of_o the_o bondage_n of_o his_o native_a corruption_n until_o it_o be_v wound_v to_o death_n and_o nothing_o there_o be_v that_o can_v give_v that_o deadly_a stroke_n unto_o it_o but_o only_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v crucify_v with_o he_o when_o a_o man_n be_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o the_o efficacy_n of_o christ_n death_n have_v crucify_v his_o old_a man_n yet_o there_o be_v still_o a_o body_n of_o sin_n there_o do_v remain_v that_o whole_a dead_a carcase_n though_o not_o with_o the_o force_n and_o dominion_n it_o have_v before_o which_o daily_a by_o little_a and_o little_o be_v consume_v &_o abolish_v for_o so_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v first_o the_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v that_o so_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v behold_v here_o what_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o redeemer_n sin_n in_o man_n nature_n may_v be_v espy_v and_o many_o goodly_a precept_n may_v be_v give_v against_o it_o with_o persuasion_n to_o come_v out_o of_o it_o but_o all_o in_o vain_a until_o it_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n moreover_o this_o we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o the_o slay_a body_n of_o sin_n though_o through_o the_o burial_n of_o christ_n it_o do_v consume_v &_o be_v diminish_v in_o the_o regenerate_a so_o that_o from_o day_n to_o day_n the_o remnant_n of_o sin_n have_v less_o &_o less_o force_n in_o they_o yet_o it_o remain_v in_o they_o &_o none_o be_v full_o deliver_v from_o it_o so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v in_o this_o world_n for_o you_o may_v read_v what_o the_o great_a apostle_n cry_v out_o touch_v himself_o o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o this_o body_n of_o death_n rom._n 7.24_o this_o slay_a body_n of_o sin_n do_v still_o annoy_v all_o the_o faithful_a but_o as_o he_o give_v thanks_o there_o we_o shall_v be_v full_o deliver_v by_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n now_o follow_v the_o end_n why_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v namely_o that_o henceforth_o we_o shall_v not_o serve_v sin_n by_o nature_n we_o be_v all_o in_o bondage_n we_o be_v under_o a_o most_o tyrannous_a lord_n that_o rule_v over_o we_o even_o sin_n we_o do_v our_o service_n and_o obedience_n thereto_o christ_n do_v set_v we_o free_a from_o this_o bondage_n as_o he_o say_v if_o the_o son_n make_v you_o free_a then_o be_v you_o free_a indeed_o john_n 8._o and_o it_o be_v by_o slay_v the_o tyrant_n wherefore_o he_o say_v he_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v free_a from_o sin_n we_o all_o know_v this_o that_o death_n set_v the_o bond_n servant_n free_a from_o his_o master_n here-upon_a s._n paul_n do_v reason_n that_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n unto_o sin_n then_o be_v we_o free_v from_o it_o so_o that_o you_o may_v plain_o see_v that_o they_o that_o do_v in_o such_o sort_n profess_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n as_o that_o they_o do_v continue_v still_o in_o sin_n be_v little_o acquaint_v with_o this_o that_o christ_n come_v to_o slay_v sin_n that_o we_o by_o die_v there-unto_a may_v be_v set_v free_a from_o the_o service_n and_o bondage_n thereof_o and_o now_o to_o the_o other_o point_n which_o be_v that_o he_o which_o be_v once_o crucify_a with_o christ_n &_o so_o be_v ded_fw-we to_o sin_n the_o same_o must_v needs_o as_o we_o show_v before_o rise_v with_o he_o &_o live_v with_o he_o whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o which_o so_o have_v die_v &_o rise_v with_o christ_n can_v never_o return_v again_o unto_o the_o spiritual_a death_n which_o be_v to_o live_v to_o sin_n this_o point_n be_v not_o common_a i_o mean_v every_o one_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o and_o therefore_o i_o do_v pray_v you_o to_o mark_v well_o the_o speech_n of_o the_o holy_a apostle_n wherefore_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o this_o have_v a_o necessary_a consequence_n as_o you_o have_v see_v before_o in_o the_o similitude_n of_o a_o plant_n where_o the_o science_n graft_v in_o grow_v to_o the_o stock_n do_v die_v and_o live_v with_o it_o if_o they_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n unto_o sin_n if_o the_o power_n of_o his_o death_n have_v crucify_v our_o old_a man_n then_o do_v we_o believe_v that_o we_o also_o rise_v with_o he_o unto_o the_o new_a life_n for_o he_o rise_v up_o to_o life_n how_o shall_v we_o be_v plant_v into_o he_o and_o grow_v unto_o he_o but_o rise_v also_o to_o life_n with_o he_o this_o be_v the_o first_o step_n unto_o the_o matter_n now_o in_o hand_n then_o in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o add_v that_o christ_n be_v enter_v into_o that_o heavenly_a life_n never_o return_v out_o of_o it_o to_o die_v any_o more_o this_o be_v so_o evident_a that_o he_o say_v know_v that_o christ_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a die_v no_o more_o death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o he_o if_o death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o he_o then_o can_v he_o never_o return_v from_o that_o glorious_a life_n for_o life_n be_v not_o take_v away_o but_o by_o death_n now_o that_o death_n shall_v have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o he_o he_o show_v by_o this_o reason_n that_o in_o that_o he_o die_v he_o die_v once_o to_o sin_n but_o in_o that_o he_o lyve_v he_o lyve_v to_o god_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o christ_n die_v even_o that_o he_o may_v satisfy_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o may_v destroy_v sin_n this_o be_v once_o do_v there_o be_v now_o no_o cause_n why_o it_o shall_v ever_o be_v do_v again_o for_o the_o full_a satisfaction_n be_v make_v at_o once_o for_o ever_o and_o sin_n by_o his_o cross_n shall_v be_v utter_o dissolve_v but_o touch_v his_o life_n the_o apostle_n say_v he_o live_v to_o god_n his_o life_n then_o be_v perpetual_a and_o everlasting_a thus_o much_o touch_v christ_n the_o head_n and_o now_o he_o come_v to_o the_o application_n of_o it_o in_o the_o member_n likewise_o think_v you_o also_o that_o you_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n but_o be_v alive_a to_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n first_o in_o these_o word_n the_o apostle_n will_v we_o not_o bare_o as_o the_o word_n be_v translate_v to_o think_v for_o that_o be_v but_o a_o opinion_n but_o to_o conclude_v as_o it_o be_v necessary_a by_o a_o syllogism_n for_o that_o speech_n he_o use_v that_o we_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n and_o be_v alive_a to_o god_n through_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n here_o now_o lie_v the_o force_n of_o his_o matter_n as_o christ_n die_v but_o once_o for_o to_o satisfy_v for_o sin_n &_o to_o slay_v it_o so_o all_o the_o true_a member_n of_o christ_n can_v but_o once_o die_v to_o sin_n sin_n or_o the_o old_a man_n be_v once_o crucify_v in_o they_o and_o have_v receive_v the_o death_n wound_n can_v never_o revive_v again_o christ_n die_v once_o to_o sin_n so_o his_o must_v die_v but_o once_o to_o sin_n for_o be_v in_o he_o can_v they_o be_v off_o and_o on_o now_o dead_a to_o sin_n now_o alive_a unto_o it_o most_o true_a it_o be_v that_o sin_n be_v in_o the_o faithful_a by_o degree_n put_v down_o and_o not_o at_o once_o but_o yet_o it_o be_v at_o once_o by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n slay_v then_o the_o party_n in_o who_o the_o old_a man_n be_v once_o crucify_a and_o slay_v be_v also_o rise_v with_o christ_n and_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o new_a life_n and_o so_o with_o he_o or_o rather_o in_o he_o be_v alive_a to_o god_n then_o mark_v the_o drift_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o christ_n can_v die_v but_o once_o to_o sin_n and_o then_o live_v for_o ever_o then_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n can_v die_v but_o once_o to_o sin_n and_o likewise_o do_v live_v with_o he_o to_o god_n for_o
