his_o spirit_n and_o albeit_o we_o shall_v desire_v too_o obey_v he_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o as_o we_o travail_n in_o our_o journey_n and_o way_n we_o shall_v stumble_v much_o and_o take_v many_o fall_v 3.5_o 2._o cor._n 3.5_o yea_o there_o will_v be_v many_o cross_a way_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o we_o shall_v continual_o fail_v and_o fault_n in_o our_o duty_n see_v then_o it_o be_v so_o we_o must_v not_o put_v our_o confidence_n and_o trust_n in_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n neither_o in_o all_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v therein_o and_o behold_v how_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o

to_o be_v find_v in_o christ_n only_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o understande_v this_o sentence_n now_o thereupon_o saint_n paul_n make_v a_o objection_n because_o that_o this_o doctrine_n have_v always_o be_v subject_n to_o many_o slander_n and_o blasphemy_n for_o the_o devil_n seek_v nothing_o more_o than_o to_o blind_v &_o to_o make_v b_n believe_v that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o purchase_v and_o get_v eternal_a life_n through_o our_o merit_n and_o behold_v wherefore_o it_o be_v when_o man_n preach_v there_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o free_a goodness_n of_o god_n that_o save_v we_o that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o reply_v make_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o our_o fleshly_a understanding_n and_o reason_n out_o man_n nature_n excellent_o paint_v out_o for_o we_o be_v always_o in_o cumber_a with_o vain_a fantasy_n and_o indeed_o puff_v up_o with_o presumption_n and_o pride_n and_o bring_v both_o that_o and_o many_o other_o fault_n from_o our_o mother_n womb_n with_o we_o so_o that_o it_o be_v very_o hear_v utter_o to_o root_v it_o out_o of_o our_o heart_n we_o can_v then_o be_v persuade_v that_o our_o salvation_n consist_v altogether_o in_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v never_o yet_o any_o of_o the_o philosopher_n that_o know_v it_o the_o gentile_n very_o and_o pagan_n do_v understande_v that_o they_o be_v all_o sinner_n &_o that_o they_o have_v need_n of_o some_o remedy_n therefore_o they_o have_v their_o sacrifice_n their_o washinge_n and_o perfume_n as_o also_o have_v the_o jew_n but_o what_o they_o also_o stay_v

admit_v all_o expositor_n be_v not_o by_o and_o by_o to_o be_v admit_v that_o be_v not_o able_a to_o understande_v this_o doctrine_n neither_o yet_o will_v quiet_o receive_v it_o it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o place_n be_v otherwise_o expound_v by_o some_o other_o but_o there_o be_v neither_o salt_n nor_o savour_n in_o it_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o i_o busy_a not_o myself_o there_o in_o they_o suppose_v that_o s._n paul_n mean_v to_o say_v thus_o much_o speech_n man_n mouth_n accustom_v to_o wicked_a speech_n that_o if_o we_o be_v find_v sinner_n when_o we_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n it_o follow_v thereon_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o bring_v righteousness_n too_o we_o but_o this_o be_v far_o from_o the_o purpose_n as_o we_o may_v easy_o perceive_v by_o the_o answer_n adjoin_v to_o be_v short_a saint_n paul_n mean_v too_o abate_v and_o beat_v down_o in_o this_o place_n that_o blasphemy_n which_o be_v then_o in_o many_o man_n mouth_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n if_o that_o the_o jew_n themselves_o shall_v be_v find_v sinner_n when_o they_o believe_v in_o he_o for_o when_o the_o jew_n trust_v in_o their_o ceremony_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o law_n they_o suppose_v indeed_o that_o they_o be_v discharge_v before_o god_n and_o do_v sanctify_v themselves_o as_o we_o see_v also_o that_o isaiah_n attribute_v that_o unto_o hypocrite_n to_o boast_v themselves_o in_o such_o sort_n to_o be_v holy_a that_o they_o suppose_v all_o other_o to_o be_v profane_a pollute_a and_o filthy_a people_n in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o behold_v then_o this_o foolish_a presumption_n wherewith_o the_o jew_n be_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v make_v drink_v to_o wit_n evil_a some_o suppose_v themselves_o in_o good_a state_n when_o they_o be_v very_o evil_a that_o in_o not_o come_v at_o all_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n they_o think_v that_o they_o be_v pure_a and_o clean_a from_o all_o sin_n but_o when_o they_o come_v too_o believe_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n than_o they_o unclothe_v themselves_o and_o spoil_v themselves_o of_o all_o regard_n of_o that_o which_o they_o think_v indeed_o to_o belong_v unto_o they_o as_o good_a and_o profitable_a for_o they_o be_v cast_v down_o in_o themselves_o and_o their_o iniquity_n be_v make_v manifest_a which_o before_o be_v hide_v and_o secret_a so_o that_o it_o seem_v that_o this_o promise_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v vain_a &_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n but_o saint_n paul_n answer_v be_v it_o never_o so_o detest_a as_o it_o be_v such_o a_o blasphemy_n as_o he_o have_v begin_v to_o speak_v but_o before_o we_o come_v to_o answer_n this_o argument_n that_o we_o may_v well_o absolve_v it_o we_o must_v declare_v that_o this_o be_v repugnant_a and_o contrary_a too_o all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o what_o be_v that_o gospel_n the_o sum_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v preach_v unto_o we_o thereby_o but_o this_o that_o we_o may_v in_o full_a trust_n appear_v before_o god_n to_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o to_o be_v hear_v of_o he_o and_o this_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o mean_a of_o christ_n righteousness_n it_o follow_v then_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n show_v we_o how_o we_o be_v justify_v before_o god_n 10.9.10_o john_n 10.9.10_o so_o far_o of_o be_v it_o that_o it_o establish_v sin_n and_o as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v come_v it_o shall_v not_o be_v only_o to_o reproove_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n but_o of_o righteousness_n also_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o seek_v it_o in_o any_o but_o in_o he_o in_o who_o it_o be_v that_o be_v to_o say_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n wherefore_o this_o solution_n be_v general_a when_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o if_o he_o build_v that_o which_o he_o have_v destroy_v he_o shall_v be_v a_o transgressor_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o shall_v do_v against_o nature_n but_o afterwards_o he_o come_v somewhat_o more_o nigh_o to_o the_o matter_n show_v that_o it_o can_v so_o be_v and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o false_a objection_n for_o i_o be_o say_v he_o dead_a unto_o the_o law_n through_o faith_n and_o be_o raise_v up_o with_o jesus_n christ_n to_o live_v with_o god_n he_o show_v here_o that_o when_o they_o that_o suppose_v for_o a_o season_n that_o they_o be_v just_a bewray_v themselves_o to_o be_v sinner_n and_o be_v convict_v thereof_o and_o that_o their_o iniquity_n in_o such_o

the_o end_n they_o may_v be_v true_o humble_v and_o cast_v down_o that_o this_o proceed_v not_o from_o jesus_n christ_n but_o rather_o from_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o law_n now_o true_a it_o be_v that_o saint_n paul_n be_v in_o this_o place_n brief_a and_o short_a and_o this_o shortness_n may_v happy_o make_v he_o seem_v dark_a but_o we_o may_v take_v that_o which_o be_v more_o full_o declare_v in_o the_o seven_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n and_o make_v it_o to_o stand_v we_o in_o steed_n of_o a_o key_n for_o the_o open_n and_o understand_v of_o this_o place_n there_o saint_n paul_n demand_v whether_o the_o law_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o sin_n no_o 7.7.12_o rom._n 7.7.12_o say_v he_o and_o reject_v it_o as_o a_o blasphemy_n the_o law_n be_v good_a just_a and_o holy_a but_o this_o
be_v it_o sin_n be_v discover_v by_o the_o law_n and_o after_o that_o sort_n indeed_o it_o kill_v us._n the_o law_n bring_v and_o offer_v unto_o we_o a_o doctrine_n of_o life_n as_o moses_n also_o

our_o fault_n the_o law_n than_o kill_v we_o not_o by_o itself_o but_o by_o circumstance_n because_o it_o be_v unto_o we_o as_o a_o glass_n to_o cause_v we_o to_o behold_v our_o own_o condemnation_n now_o pursue_v his_o purpose_n he_o say_v that_o when_o the_o law_n condemn_v we_o not_o 7.8.9_o rom._n 7.8.9_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v dead_a for_o sin_n say_v he_o lyve_v not_o when_o the_o law_n be_v dead_a and_o yet_o this_o shall_v be_v dark_a if_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v open_v and_o declare_v when_o he_o say_v that_o sin_n live_v not_o when_o the_o law_n be_v dead_a it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o man_n be_v negligent_a and_o careless_a and_o that_o they_o rock_n themselves_o a_o sleep_n in_o vain_a flattery_n and_o deceit_n so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v not_o reproove_v by_o the_o law_n conscience_n the_o preach_v of_o the_o law_n most_o necessary_a special_o for_o these_o day_n wherein_o man_n be_v grow_v to_o lewdness_n of_o conscience_n behold_v then_o sin_n which_o be_v dead_a when_o the_o law_n be_v blot_v out_o or_o deface_v that_o be_v to_o say_v so_o long_o as_o man_n do_v not_o examine_v themselves_o by_o god_n law_n and_o according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o command_v and_o call_v not_o themselves_o to_o a_o account_n to_o know_v whether_o they_o dutiful_o behave_v themselves_o or_o no_o they_o forget_v themselves_o and_o enter_v not_o deep_o into_o themselves_o for_o this_o must_v stand_v true_a that_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v not_o careful_a and_o watchful_a their_o conscience_n be_v senseless_a &_o void_a of_o feeling_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n be_v it_o the_o law_n be_v dead_a make_v sin_n also_o to_o die_v but_o do_v the_o law_n live_v live_v how_o the_o law_n be_v say_v to_o live_v that_o be_v to_o say_v have_v the_o law_n her_o force_n

think_v myself_o to_o be_v justify_v and_o to_o be_v accept_v before_o god_n and_o to_o have_v obtain_v everlasting_a life_n and_o why_o so_o iniquity_n we_o be_v not_o in_o the_o best_a state_n when_o we_o so_o think_v ourselves_o neither_o be_v we_o in_o the_o worst_a when_o god_n make_v we_o see_v our_o vileness_n and_o iniquity_n because_o he_o have_v cast_v the_o law_n very_o far_o away_o but_o when_o the_o law_n once_o have_v her_o course_n &_o i_o think_v well_o upon_o it_o i_o say_v alas_o be_o i_o not_o convict_v and_o vanquish_v do_v i_o not_o now_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n i_o be_o can_v i_o now_o esteem_v myself_o innocent_a no_o very_o for_o so_o far_o off_o be_v it_o that_o i_o can_v do_v so_o that_o i_o find_v within_o myself_o a_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o sin_n so_o then_o when_o i_o know_v the_o law_n the_o law_n slay_v i_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n now_o mean_v when_o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o law_n that_o he_o be_v dead_a now_o to_o die_v to_o the_o law_n may_v be_v take_v after_o two_o sort_n as_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o judgement_n because_o that_o then_o we_o can_v perceive_v nothing_o

sin_n many_o man_n say_v that_o this_o come_v from_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o from_o the_o law_n but_o we_o may_v see_v the_o contrary_a for_o if_o the_o law_n be_v dead_a it_o follow_v that_o we_o also_o die_v with_o it_o because_o we_o be_v condemn_v in_o god_n sight_n we_o see_v that_o all_o the_o promise_n that_o be_v contain_v therein_o can_v make_v we_o glad_a and_o rejoice_v we_o see_v that_o in_o stead_n of_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n we_o be_v accurse_v and_o altogether_o confound_v see_v then_o that_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o law_n condemn_v the_o law_n and_o not_o the_o gospel_n condemn_v when_o christ_n appear_v not_o killeth_z we_o and_o enforce_v we_o to_o die_v with_o it_o we_o will_v not_o nor_o we_o can_v impute_v that_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o we_o will_v rather_o impute_v it_o to_o that_o which_o the_o law_n say_v unto_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v justify_v and_o we_o shall_v obtain_v salvation_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v accomplish_v all_o that_o which_o it_o show_v we_o &_o teach_v us._n for_o look_v how_o much_o more_o high_a the_o law_n lift_v we_o up_o so_o much_o the_o more_o shall_v we_o fall_v into_o most_o deep_a pit_n and_o whirlpool_n wherefore_o we_o be_v far_o remove_v from_o this_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o law_n we_o die_v then_o to_o the_o law_n adjoin_v the_o

do_v according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o say_v unto_o we_o therein_o we_o shall_v be_v recompense_v now_o behold_v all_o we_o be_v dead_a and_o lose_v and_o why_o so_o for_o this_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o god_n speak_v but_o we_o must_v look_v to_o the_o condition_n as_o whether_o we_o be_v answerable_a to_o that_o which_o he_o command_v we_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o we_o go_v altogether_o a_o contrary_a course_n or_o backward_o as_o it_o be_v it_o follow_v then_o that_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n we_o shall_v behold_v ourselves_o accurse_v

notwithstanding_o behold_v we_o be_v shut_v up_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o righteousness_n in_o any_o man_n lyve_v thereupon_o we_o may_v very_o well_o and_o safe_o conclude_v that_o we_o must_v

by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v certain_a christ_n no_o way_n of_o deliverance_n from_o god_n curse_n but_o jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o shall_v never_o come_v with_o a_o

that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a any_o long_o to_o endure_v it_o apply_v a_o fit_a similitude_n well_o pursue_v and_o apply_v he_o will_v submit_v himself_o to_o the_o physician_n and_o will_v bind_v

that_o we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v poor_a scatter_v &_o lose_a people_n &_o to_o be_v short_a that_o we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v drown_v or_o swallow_a up_o in_o death_n we_o will_v never_o come_v in_o good_a earnest_n to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v true_a that_o this_o doctrine_n may_v well_o be_v receive_v and_o that_o they_o which_o shall_v hear_v thereof_o will_v bow_v their_o ear_n and_o hearken_v when_o some_o shall_v say_v to_o they_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o righteousness_n but_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n there_o be_v very_o many_o scoffer_n and_o jester_n that_o allow_v this_o but_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o truth_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o hypocrisy_n and_o dissimulation_n amongst_o they_o let_v we_o then_o hold_v this_o fast_n that_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o this_o end_n when_o we_o will_v know_v wherein_o our_o salvation_n stand_v and_o how_o so_o for_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n strive_v to_o attain_v that_o god_n feel_v of_o

wherefore_o saint_n paul_n large_o lay_v out_o the_o matter_n which_o we_o have_v to_o handle_v in_o this_o place_n summon_v and_o proceed_v against_o all_o mankind_n on_o the_o one_o side_n he_o

we_o shall_v confess_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o confusion_n and_o shame_n of_o face_n and_o that_o if_o we_o shall_v yield_v up_o a_o account_v before_o god_n up_o they_o that_o

themselves_o a_o sleep_n as_o it_o be_v in_o their_o own_o hypocrisy_n s._n paul_n do_v in_o a_o manner_n thunder_n against_o they_o that_o justify_v themselves_o and_o flatter_v themselves_o say_v

of_o the_o law_n and_o also_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o this_o be_v it_o that_o ought_v to_o bring_v we_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o the_o
