long●_n see_v we_o be_v forlorn_a and_o damn_v in_o adam_n fall_n how_o happen_v it_o that_o he_o have_v not_o remedy_v it_o rather_o sure_o s._n paul_n do_v not_o altogether_o satisfy_v man_n appetite_n but_o cut_v it_o quite_o off_o by_o the_o waste_n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n if_o god_n ment_fw-la too_o content_v we_o he_o shall_v be_v fain_o too_o feed_v we_o with_o many_o needless_a thing_n but_o he_o intend_v too_o t●ye_v the_o obedientnesse_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o saint_n paul_n also_o do_v bar_v we_o of_o that_o thing_n in_o say_v that_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v and_o what_o mean_v he_o by_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n he_o mean_v the_o time_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v in_o his_o own_o purpose_n and_o not_o according_a as_o man_n may_v have_v judge_v of_o it_o for_o they_o be_v no_o competent_a judge_n of_o that_o matter_n but_o must_v submit_v themselves_o to_o god_n and_o allow_v of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v establish_v thus_o you_o see_v what_o s._n paul_n mean_v by_o say_v that_o the_o full_a time_n be_v then_o come_v when_o god_n send_v his_o only_a son_n into_o the_o world_n therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o our_o chief_a wisdom_n be_v this_o soberness_n of_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n too_o accept_v for_o good_a and_o rightful_a what_o soever_o thing_n he_o do_v know_v that_o on_o our_o own_o part_n though_o we_o have_v never_o so_o much_o understand_v it_o be_v but_o folly_n for_o we_o too_o think_v ourselves_o aught_o worth_n or_o too_o take_v upon_o we_o the_o skill_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o that_o we_o must_v learn_v too_o humble_a ourselves_o to_o our_o god_n and_o not_o do_v as_o many_o man_n do_v who_o be_v so_o hasty_a as_o to_o say_v what_o i_o think_v thus_o and_o thus_o be_v my_o opinion_n for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n more_o contrary_a to_o god_n doctrine_n than_o when_o man_n presume_v so_o much_o upon_o themselves_o as_o too_o say_v thus_o must_v the_o matter_n go_v and_o so_o and_o so_o do_v i_o think_v or_o suppose_v true_o it_o become_v we_o too_o behilde_n as_o captive_n 3._o as_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o the_o second_o too_o the_o corinthian_n let_v we_o hold_v ourselves_o in_o such_o awe_n as_o we_o may_v not_o once_o lift_v up_o our_o head_n too_o dispute_v against_o god_n nor_o make_v any_o estimation_n of_o ourselves_o as_o though_o we_o be_v of_o some_o ability_n let_v we_o hold_v we_o content_v with_o the_o liberty_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o and_o not_o abuse_v the_o grace_n that_o he_o have_v grant_v we_o in_o prefer_v we_o before_o those_o that_o be_v as_o angel_n in_o this_o world_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v not_o advance_v to_o the_o liberty_n which_o we_o have_v by_o the_o gospel_n furthermore_o s._n paul_n do_v here_o bring_v we_o back_o to_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v above_o all_o other_o which_o be_v that_o our_o be_v at_o the_o time_n of_o full_a age_n in_o these_o day_n be_v not_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o virtue_n that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o difference_n between_o we_o and_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o that_o they_o be_v lead_v as_o under_o awe_n and_o we_o be_v now_o set_v free_a into_o 〈…〉_o why_o be_v we_o 〈◊〉_d ▪_o be_v it_o because_o we_o be_v of_o more_o value_n

then_o enjoy_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o gospel_n let_v we_o go_v right_o forth_o too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o as_o he_o be_v glorify_v in_o himself_o will_v also_o bring_v we_o intoo_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n whereinto_o he_o be_v go_v before_o us._n this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o saint_n paul_n mean_v purposely_o too_o tell_v us._n as_o touch_v that_o it_o be_v add_v that_o he_o be_v make_v of_o woman_n and_o put_v under_o the_o law_n it_o can_v not_o be_v dispatch_v at_o this_o time_n and_o therefore_o we_o will_v reserve_v it_o till_o a_o other_o time_n and_o now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o to_o make_v we_o so_o too_o feel_v they_o as_o we_o may_v mourn_v and_o be_v sorry_a for_o they_o with_o true_a repentance_n and_o go_v thither_o as_o he_o call_v we_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n be_v so_o right_o bereave_v of_o our_o flesh_n and_o of_o all_o the_o corruption_n thereof_o as_o we_o may_v come_v to_o the_o joy_n whereto_o he_o daily_o call_v we_o and_o unto_o that_o uncorruptnesse_n wherein_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o go_v forward_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n that_o it_o may_v please_v he_o too_o grant_v this_o grace_n not_o only_o too_o we_o but_o also_o too_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n the_o xxu_o sermon_n which_o be_v the_o second_o upon_o the_o four_o chapter_n 4_o but_o when_o the_o time_n be_v full_o come_v god_n send_v his_o son_n make_v of_o woman_n and_o make_v under_o the_o law_n 5_z too_o the_o intent_n too_o redeem_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o we_o may_v receyve_v the_o adoption_n of_o child_n 6_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o you_o be_v child_n god_n have_v send_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n into_o your_o heart_n cry_v abba_n that_o be_v to_o say_v father_n 7_z wherefore_o now_o thou_o be_v not_o a_o servant_n but_o a_o son_n and_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o son_n thou_o be_v also_o a_o heir_n with_o christ_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o why_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n namely_o to_o abate_v man_n curiosity_n who_o by_o their_o good_a will_n will_v seek_v to_o far_o into_o god_n secret_n yea_o and_o take_v upon_o they_o so_o bold_o as_o to_o reply_v against_o god_n if_o he_o behave_v not_o himself_o after_o their_o fancy_n to_o the_o intent_n therefore_o that_o the_o faithful_a may_v content_v themselves_o with_o the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v keep_v in_o send_v of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o say_v that_o the_o due_a season_n be_v not_o before_o for_o that_o matter_n depend_v upon_o the_o only_a good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n and_o upon_o his_o unchaungeable_a purpose_n whereunto_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o submit_v ourselves_o and_o now_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v make_v of_o woman_n and_o put_v under_o the_o law_n to_o acquit_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n first_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v clothe_v with_o our_o nature_n for_o else_o he_o can_v not_o have_v yield_v obedience_n to_o god_n in_o our_o behalf_n that_o we_o may_v be_v set_v free_a howbeit_o for_o asmuch_o as_o he_o be_v conceyve_v after_o a_o wonderful_a manner_n therefore_o do_v s._n paul_n say_v he_o be_v make_v or_o beget_v of_o a_o woman_n it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n nevertheless_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o there_o be_v a_o secret_a work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o his_o conception_n but_o how_o soever_o it_o be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o too_o the_o end_n he_o may_v yield_v obedience_n to_o god_n his_o father_n as_o it_o be_v in_o our_o person_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o this_o subjection_n whereof_o he_o speak_v be_v not_o of_o constraint_n but_o of_o good_a will_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v all_o superiority_n and_o soveraintie_n in_o so_o much_o that_o even_o the_o angel_n and_o all_o the_o principality_n must_v bow_v their_o knee_n before_o he_o too_o do_v he_o honour_n how_o then_o can_v he_o be_v subject_a too_o the_o law_n sing_v that_o the_o law_n be_v such_o a_o bondage_n this_o do_v no_o whit_n deface_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n son_n for_o asmuch_o as_o he_o abace_v himself_o of_o his_o own_o good_a will_n therefore_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o second_o too_o the_o philippian_n there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n in_o that_o he_o may_v make_v himself_o equal_a with_o god_n without_o robbery_n 6._o and_o yet_o that_o he_o abace_v himself_o also_o so_o then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o this_o do_v of_o his_o proceed_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a and_o unconstreyn_v goodness_n he_o continue_v always_o in_o his_o own_o state_n not_o withstand_v that_o before_o man_n he_o have_v the_o shape_n and_o fashion_n of_o a_o servant_n as_o s._n paul_n also_o specifi_v in_o the_o same_o place_n
faith_n which_o we_o hold_v by_o his_o teach_n and_o although_o there_o be_v not_o nowadays_o any_o such_o shameless_a person_n that_o labour_v to_o deface_v he_o or_o to_o abolish_v the_o authority_n of_o his_o apostleship_n yet_o do_v not_o that_o doctrine_n cease_v to_o be_v for_o our_o profit_n as_o how_o we_o have_v see_v already_o how_o saint_n paul_n have_v say_v that_o if_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n shall_v step_v up_o too_o preach_v a_o gospel_n contrary_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o shall_v hold_v they_o accurse_v and_o even_o at_o this_o day_n the_o same_o be_v good_a for_o us._n for_o we_o may_v defy_v satan_n and_o all_o the_o misbelief_n and_o wiliness_n of_o man_n and_o all_o the_o trash_n and_o subtilety_n which_o they_o have_v to_o thrust_v we_o from_o the_o singleness_n of_o our_o faith_n i_o say_v we_o may_v defy_v everywhit_o of_o it_o and_o why_o for_o god_n word_n have_v such_o a_o majesty_n in_o itself_o that_o all_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v set_v up_o against_o it_o be_v but_o smoke_n lease_v and_o filthiness_n now_o than_o if_o we_o take_v it_o for_o a_o general_a rule_n that_o neither_o peter_n nor_o john_n may_v diminish_v the_o majesty_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o will_v serve_v we_o for_o a_o buckler_n too_o ward_v all_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v allege_v in_o these_o day_n too_o shake_v we_o withal_o according_a also_o as_o we_o see_v that_o diverse_a weakling_n be_v thrust_v out_o of_o the_o way_n by_o that_o it_o be_v say_v untoo_o they_o how_o now_o we_o see_v that_o the_o wyze_a man_n of_o the_o world_n the_o man_n of_o great_a skill_n the_o prelate_n and_o such_o as_o have_v the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n toogither_o with_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n stick_v too_o the_o faith_n that_o have_v be_v receyve_v of_o long_a time_n and_o too_o the_o old_a accustom_a manner_n of_o live_v thus_o the_o poor_a sort_n have_v their_o eye_n blear_v and_o their_o wit_n utter_o dull_v and_o their_o heart_n discourage_v by_o mean_n whereof_o god_n truth_n be_v forsake_v so_o as_o it_o have_v neither_o credit_n nor_o reverence_n among_o they_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n these_o masker_n get_v the_o upper_a hand_n and_o flaunt_v it_o as_o who_o will_v say_v that_o man_n shall_v make_v idol_n of_o they_o and_o worship_n they_o in_o despite_n of_o god_n then_o since_o it_o be_v so_o we_o see_v it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n in_o these_o day_n too_o be_v arm_v with_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v contain_v here_o in_o saint_n paul_n which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o too_o receyve_v his_o word_n without_o gaynesay_v and_o that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n come_v down_o intoo_o the_o world_n he_o be_v ordain_v too_o be_v our_o master_n with_o condition_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v harken_v too_o he_o and_o stick_v too_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o speak_v without_o add_v aught_o too_o or_o diminish_v aught_o from_o that_o which_o it_o please_v he_o too_o show_v because_o the_o full_a perfection_n of_o all_o wisdom_n be_v in_o he_o when_o we_o once_o know_v this_o we_o may_v despyze_v all_o the_o gewgaw_n that_o man_n can_v lay_v before_o us._n and_o if_o man_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o great_a man_n the_o wyze_a man_n the_o rich_a man_n and_o the_o man_n of_o authority_n of_o this_o world_n do_v live_v so_o or_o so_o ●ee_o may_v answer_v yea_o marry_o but_o when_o all_o come_v too_o all_o what_o be_v they_o in_o comparison_n of_o god_n when_o creature_n come_v before_o he_o they_o must_v all_o vanish_v away_o for_o when_o soever_o there_o be_v that_o majesty_n give_v too_o god_n word_n whereby_o he_o intend_v too_o try_v whither_o we_o honour_v he_o or_o no_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o will_v receyve_v all_o that_o proceed_v out_o of_o his_o holy_a mouth_n now_o that_o word_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o gospel_n in_o so_o much_o that_o when_o we_o have_v once_o grant_v that_o god_n be_v too_o be_v obey_v we_o must_v no_o more_o run_v over_o sea_n or_o land_n too_o seek_v what_o his_o will_n be_v for_o we_o have_v a_o sure_a and_o infallible_a warrant_n of_o it_o in_o the_o law_n prophet_n and_o gospel_n sith_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o we_o see_v it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v have_v this_o doctrine_n too_o continue_v too_o the_o world_n end_n and_o furthermore_o we_o be_v warn_v therewithal_o too_o rest_n upon_o god_n without_o waver_v at_o every_o blast_n of_o wind_n according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n stir_v up_o much_o variety_n of_o opinion_n which_o be_v as_o whirlwind_n and_o tempest_n too_o dryve_v we_o too_o and_o fro_o but_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o be_v settle_v upon_o god_n and_o then_o shall_v we_o stand_v out_o too_o the_o last_o brunt_n for_o if_o we_o hilde_n our_o faith_n of_o john_n or_o peter_n it_o will_v be_v but_o a_o lean_a faith_n because_o they_o be_v frail_a creature_n and_o we_o know_v that_o man_n be_v subject_a too_o leasing_n and_o vanity_n therefore_o it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n too_o have_v a_o much_o substantiall_a and_o sure_a groundwork_n and_o foundation_n than_o all_o that_o be_v too_o be_v find_v in_o this_o world_n and_o so_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o know_v that_o god_n have_v teach_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o man_n have_v be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o instrument_n thereof_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o mount_v up_o unto_o god_n that_o be_v the_o way_n for_o we_o too_o apply_v this_o doctrine_n too_o our_o own_o

of_o the_o mean_a sort_n as_o we_o have_v see_v but_o his_o intent_n be_v that_o god_n word_n which_o he_o have_v preach_v shall_v abide_v firm_a and_o thereupon_o he_o put_v the_o wise_a man_n in_o

doubt_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o receyve_v of_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v too_o do_v at_o this_o day_n and_o whereas_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o he_o pass_v not_o what_o the_o apostle_n be_v because_o god_n regard_v not_o man_n person_n thereby_o he_o show_v that_o he_o ought_v not_o too_o be_v count_v inferior_a too_o john_n or_o peter_n for_o that_o he_o have_v be_v

for_o we_o see_v that_o in_o other_o place_n he_o term_v himself_o a_o poor_a thing_n bear_v out_o of_o time_n and_o confess_v himself_o too_o be_v unworthy_a to_o be_v count_v in_o the_o number_n

confess_v that_o he_o only_o be_v to_o be_v glorify_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o way_n for_o we_o to_o commend_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o abide_v unremoved_a by_o the_o

to_o be_v full_o resolve_v in_o our_o mind_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o hold_v we_o always_o to_o it_o without_o change_v this_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v in_o this_o sentence_n now_o hereupon_o s._n paul_n show_v how_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o speak_v so_o of_o his_o gospel_n that_o he_o have_v preach_v for_o he_o say_v that_o he_o

seek_v not_o to_o please_v man_n but_o jesus_n christ_n afterward_o he_o add_v that_o his_o gospel_n be_v not_o of_o man_n but_o that_o it_o be_v revel_v to_o he_o from_o above_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o it_o have_v not_o be_v enough_o for_o s._n paul_n to_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n in_o general_a except_o he_o have_v show_v therewith_o that_o he_o have_v be_v a_o true_a &_o faithful_a minister_n of_o it_o for_o the_o devil_n can_v well_o enough_o away_o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v of_o very_o great_a estimation_n among_o we_o but_o in_o the_o

it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v honour_v in_o the_o world_n but_o we_o must_v also_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o thing_n the_o gospel_n be_v and_o what_o be_v contain_v in_o it_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n chalendge_v that_o faithfulness_n of_o teach_v the_o gospel_n in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o any_o whit_n of_o it_o be_v change_v let_v the_o same_o be_v accurse_v and_o this_o yet_o again_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o when_o the_o papist_n read_v this_o place_n they_o do_v nothing_o but_o scoff_n at_o it_o and_o god_n also_o have_v dull_v they_o so_o as_o there_o be_v less_o wit_n in_o they_o than_o in_o little_a child_n for_o they_o understand_v it_o thus_o namely_o that_o paul_n mean_v that_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v another_o gospel_n as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v write_v a_o book_n and_o the_o same_o shall_v not_o be_v the_o gospel_n that_o be_v write_v by_o he_o than_o they_o shall_v utter_o reject_v it_o because_o the_o gospel_n be_v sufficient_o prove_v already_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o they_o think_v not_o that_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o paul_n epistle_n be_v every_o whit_n of_o it_o gospel_n but_o they_o rather_o surmise_v that_o he_o have_v write_v some_o story_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o if_o any_o other_o have_v be_v bring_v in_o upon_o the_o refuzall_n thereof_o the_o same_o that_o have_v be_v so_o bring_v in_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o credit_n nor_o reputation_n but_o we_o see_v that_o in_o that_o case_n these_o wretched_a beast_n have_v neither_o reason_n nor_o understanding_n nor_o any_o taste_n at_o all_o so_o much_o the_o more_o therefore_o do_v it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n too_o mark_v that_o s._n paul_n have_v good_a cause_n too_o speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n which_o he_o have_v preach_v even_o to_o show_v as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o finger_fw-la the_o doctrine_n which_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v full_o persuade_v of_o will_v we_o be_v of_o the_o flock_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n then_o be_v it_o not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o accept_v what_o soever_o be_v tell_v we_o in_o his_o name_n but_o we_o must_v put_v that_o thing_n in_o ●re_n which_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o ten_o of_o saint_n john_n 5_o which_o be_v too_o be_v able_a by_o herken_v unto_o his_o voice_n too_o discern_v his_o voice_n from_o

which_o care_v not_o which_o end_n go_v forward_o in_o somuch_o that_o if_o a_o man_n tell_v they_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o only_o he_o upon_o who_o we_o must_v rest_v to_o have_v any_o

the_o author_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n his_o father_n see_v it_o be_v so_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o hold_v we_o to_o it_o and_o so_o consequent_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o another_o gospel_n he_o mean_v the_o minglemangle_n and_o corruption_n that_o may_v be_v put_v unto_o it_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v whatsoever_o be_v add_v or_o patch_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o

therefore_o let_v we_o shun_v it_o as_o a_o poison_n for_o sure_o no_o poison_n can_v be_v so_o deadly_a as_o a_o false_a doctrine_n and_o if_o man_n do_v natural_o keep_v themselves_o from_o the_o

by_o any_o trumpery_n of_o man_n too_o be_v short_a
open_v we_o the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n too_o show_v we_o that_o he_o hold_v we_o all_o for_o his_o child_n and_o that_o he_o be_v our_o father_n and_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v so_o

then_o must_v god_n utter_v yet_o a_o second_o work_v and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n set_v down_o both_o twain_o of_o they_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n first_o that_o he_o have_v

in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o have_v chozen_v we_o and_o keep_v we_o too_o himself_o even_o from_o our_o moother_n womb_n and_o yet_o be_v this_o no_o let_v but_o that_o he_o have_v also_o

be_v not_o lawful_a to_o alter_v any_o part_n of_o it_o see_v that_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o it_o but_o they_o shall_v have_v consider_v to_o what_o end_n the_o ceremony_n be_v give_v to_o

to_o be_v well_o entertain_v for_o his_o well_o pay_v and_o both_o of_o they_o require_v meat_n &_o drink_v howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v but_o the_o second_o man_n be_v poor_a &_o have_v neither_o

both_o need_n but_o the_o first_o have_v money_n to_o content_v his_o host_n and_o like_a as_o he_o shall_v have_v fare_v well_o and_o be_v well_o and_o courteous_o interteyn_v so_o shall_v his_o

he_o nothing_o but_o a_o charge_n so_o then_o if_o we_o will_v be_v justify_v before_o god_n by_o the_o law_n we_o must_v deserve_v it_o so_o as_o he_o may_v receyve_v of_o we_o and_o we_o of_o he_o and_o there_o may_v be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o interchaunge_v betwixt_o us._n and_o be_v that_o possible_a no_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v more_o at_o large_a hereafter_o therefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o we_o be_v exclude_v from_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o if_o we_o think_v to_o bring_v any_o thing_n to_o bind_v god_n withal_o we_o do_v but_o provoke_v his_o wrath_n then_o be_v there_o none_o other_o shift_n but_o to_o go_v to_o he_o like_o poor_a beggar_n and_o so_o to_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n not_o as_o by_o a_o virtue_n that_o be_v of_o ourselves_o but_o because_o we_o confess_v with_o all_o lowliness_n that_o we_o can_v not_o obtain_v salvation_n but_o by_o his_o free_a gift_n ▪_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o law_n be_v set_v here_o full_o but_o against_o faith_n as_o if_o s._n paul_n shall_v tell_v we_o that_o all_o they_o which_o go_v about_o to_o win_v god_n favour_n by_o their_o own_o merit_n forsake_v the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o shall_v be_v declare_v more_o at_o length_n hereafter_o ▪_o but_o now_o if_o any_o man_n say_v that_o the_o law_n be_v give_v of_o god_n so_o as_o it_o can_v not_o have_v any_o contrariety_n against_o faith_n whereof_o god_n be_v the_o author_n also_o the_o answer_n thereunto_o be_v easy_a for_o god_n make_v both_o day_n and_o night_n fire_n and_o water_n cold_a and_o heat_n now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o day_n be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o night_n but_o we_o see_v the_o wonderful_a order_n of_o god_n goodness_n and_o wisdom_n in_o that_o man_n have_v the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o do_v then_o work_n in_o by_o day_n and_o the_o darkness_n as_o it_o be_v a_o covert_n to_o rest_v in_o by_o night_n so_o than_o although_o the_o day_n differ_v from_o the_o night_n yet_o be_v there_o no_o contrariety_n betwixt_o they_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o between_o fire_n and_o water_n so_o each_o creature_n be_v put_v to_o his_o own_o proper_a use_n but_o we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v very_o well_o agree_v the_o fire_n and_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o 〈◊〉_d behold_v they_o fight_v together_o then_o be_v there_o great_a contrariety_n even_o so_o be_v it_o between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n and_o if_o any_o body_n will_v have_v a_o man_n to_o be_v justify_v both_o by_o the_o law_n and_o by_o the_o gospel_n to_o he_o do_v but_o turmoil_n and_o mingle_v thing_n together_o and_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v set_v heaven_n and_o earth_n together_o by_o the_o ear_n to_o be_v short_a it_o be_v much_o easy_a too_o mingle_v fire_n and_o water_n together_o than_o too_o say_v that_o we_o can_v purchase_v any_o grace_n at_o god_n hand_n by_o our_o own_o deserve_n and_o therewithal_o also_o have_v need_n to_o be_v succour_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o if_o a_o man_n consider_v what_o the_o law_n be_v and_o too_o what_o purpose_n it_o be_v give_v he_o shall_v find_v that_o it_o be_v not_o whit_n at_o all_o repugnant_a too_o the_o gospel_n nor_o consequent_o untoo_o faith_n but_o that_o they_o agree_v very_o well_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o this_o difficulty_n be_v dispatch_v so_o that_o if_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o faith_n come_v of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o the_o law_n it_o be_v true_a nevertheless_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v as_o we_o shall_v say_v

by_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o be_v justify_v let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v all_o one_o with_o be_v reckon_v or_o take_v for_o rightuous_a before_o

that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v on_o the_o behalf_n of_o jesus_n christ_n although_o then_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o all_o wretchedness_n yet_o it_o

the_o promise_n now_o remain_v for_o we_o too_o know_v by_o what_o mean_v we_o come_v unto_o god_n namely_o by_o the_o promise_a seed_n which_o be_v but_o only_o one_o as_o s._n paul_n add_v for_o if_o man_n turn_v never_o so_o little_a from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o and_o by_o they_o be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o if_o this_o be_v speak_v too_o beat_v

of_o the_o promise_n then_o if_o we_o come_v not_o to_o jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v gather_v unto_o he_o sure_o god_n disclaym_v we_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v none_o of_o he_o and_o that_o

the_o one_o side_n the_o papist_n have_v infinite_a mean_n to_o come_v unto_o god_n &_o likewise_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o turk_n and_o the_o jew_n all_o which_o have_v quite_o forsake_v our_o

the_o promise_n belong_v unto_o us._n why_o so_o for_o they_o be_v give_v unto_o he_o not_o for_o his_o own_o commodity_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o for_o he_o have_v no_o need_n of_o they_o

too_o mark_v also_o concern_v the_o antiquity_n which_o s._n paul_n treat_v of_o here_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v no_o new_a devise_v thing_n nor_o a_o thing_n that_o have_v

know_v that_o god_n do_v then_o begin_v to_o publish_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o gospel_n at_o this_o day_n and_o that_o the_o father_n have_v none_o other_o way_n whereby_o to_o come_v to_o salvation_n than_o the_o same_o that_o be_v show_v we_o at_o this_o day_n and_o this_o be_v very_o needful_a for_o us._n for_o many_o busy_a body_n do_v now_o unskilful_o imagine_v that_o the_o gospel_n be_v never_o hear_v of_o before_o yea_o &_o there_o be_v of_o these_o scorner_n of_o god_n and_o heathenish_a fellow_n who_o to_o embrace_v the_o authority_n of_o god_n &_o of_o his_o gospel_n say_v it_o come_v up_o within_o these_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n and_o that_o it_o be_v never_o hear_v of_o in_o the_o world_n before_o what_o say_v they_o have_v god_n forsake_v the_o

and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o secret_a that_o have_v be_v keep_v hide_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n but_o yet_o have_v god_n determine_v it_o before_o and_o make_v sufficient_a
they_o be_v both_o one_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o but_o in_o this_o text_n the_o word_n faith_n have_v yet_o a_o more_o peculiar_a signification_n which_o be_v the_o revelation_n or_a

already_o that_o abraham_n be_v iustify_v because_o he_o believe_v god_n &_o that_o we_o also_o must_v be_v fashion_v like_o to_o his_o example_n in_o that_o behalf_n as_o whereby_o we_o be_v make_v his_o child_n to_o come_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n then_o have_v faith_n his_o full_a strength_n at_o all_o time_n and_o there_o never_o be_v any_o other_o mean_n to_o set_v god_n and_o

yet_o come_v intoo_o the_o world_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o be_v iustify_v free_o at_o this_o day_n and_o without_o any_o desert_n of_o our_o own_o and_o why_o be_v that_o for_o he_o that_o

he_o utter_o disinherit_v himself_o know_v that_o there_o be_v virtue_n in_o he_o that_o may_v go_v for_o payment_n before_o god_n yet_o be_v he_o hold_v still_o under_o shadow_n &_o be_v fain_o to_o

saint_n paul_n mean_v by_o say_v that_o faith_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v namely_o that_o the_o convenient_a time_n of_o the_o revel_a of_o it_o to_o the_o world_n as_o it_o be_v nowadays_o by_o the_o

that_o abraham_n perceive_v how_o it_o stand_v he_o on_o hand_n to_o put_v his_o whole_a trust_n in_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n give_v over_o himself_o and_o so_o his_o believe_v be_v reckon_v

as_o child_n yield_v themselves_o subject_a too_o their_o father_n know_v well_o that_o their_o father_n will_v not_o handle_v they_o rough_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o word_n liberty_n or_o freedom_n which_o s._n paul_n use_v nevertheless_o to_o the_o end_n that_o this_o shortness_n be_v not_o darksome_a i_o will_v declare_v it_o more_o a●●●ge_a so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o doubt_n whither_o god_n do_v love_v we_o or_o hate_v we_o there_o will_v always_o be_v trouble_n and_o unquietness_n in_o our_o conscience_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v as_o it_o be_v lock_v up_o

quittance_n always_o before_o our_o eye_n which_o be_v make_v we_o in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n chryste_n why_o so_o for_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o we_o be_v indet_v unto_o god_n many_o way_n yea_o infinite_a way_n for_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n and_o we_o break_v it_o a_o hundred_o time_n a_o day_n yea_o even_o or_o ever_o we_o think_v of_o it_o again_o we_o offend_v even_o in_o gross_a fault_n but_o howsoever_o we_o deal_v we_o can_v assure_v ourselves_o of_o god_n love_n unless_o we_o be_v discharge_v against_o he_o of_o the_o obligation_n of_o everlasting_a death_n wherein_o we_o stand_v bind_v now_o we_o attain_v that_o benefit_n when_o we_o be_v persuade_v by_o the_o gospel_n that_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v shed_v to_o wash_v away_o all_o our_o spot_v and_o that_o his_o death_n be_v a_o sufficient_a sacrifice_n too_o appease_v god_n wrath_n and_o to_o wipe_v out_o the_o remembrance_n of_o all_o our_o offence_n &_o iniquity_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o way_n to_o set_v we_o free_a be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n receive_v we_o to_o mercy_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n &_o that_o our_o fault_n &_o sin_n shall_v not_o hinder_v we_o to_o find_v favour_n always_o in_o his_o sight_n or_o to_o have_v familiar_a access_n unto_o he_o as_o child_n have_v untoo_o their_o father_n second_o we_o must_v not_o be_v waver_v too_o &_o fro_o to_o make_v conscience_n of_o every_o thing_n that_o man_n devise_v of_o their_o own_o head_n but_o walk_v steadfast_o according_a to_o god_n word_n know_v moreover_o that_o our_o conscience_n be_v free_a &_o that_o whither_o man_n command_v or_o forbid_v any_o thing_n it_o be_v nothing_o to_o we_o i_o meene_z as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o spiritual_a regiment_n of_o our_o soul_n for_o we_o talk_v not_o here_o of_o civil_a policy_n nor_o of_o the_o common_a life_n of_o man_n but_o of_o our_o salvation_n so_o then_o all_o thing_n

mingle_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o with_o it_o but_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o we_o must_v therewithal_o know_v that_o god_n accept_v our_o affection_n when_o he_o see_v we_o willing_a to_o

far_o oversee_v as_o to_o take_v upon_o he_o that_o he_o have_v perform_v the_o whole_a law_n then_o if_o all_o of_o we_o be_v find_v guilty_a of_o offence_n against_o god_n we_o be_v as_o good_a as_o utter_o undo_v till_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n reach_v we_o his_o hand_n therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v forget_v the_o rightuousnesse_n of_o the_o law_n and_o lay_v it_o under_o

upon_o this_o text_n where_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v make_v unprofitable_a if_o man_n hope_v to_o justify_v themselves_o by_o the_o law_n for_o it_o have_v be_v too_o common_a a_o error_n in_o all_o age_n that_o at_o the_o first_o set_v forth_o and_o first_o brunt_n man_n will_v needs_o pay_v god_n all_o that_o be_v due_a too_o he_o and_o in_o the_o end_n seek_v

case_n it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o follow_v our_o own_o imagination_n for_o god_n will_v judge_v we_o according_a too_o his_o own_o word_n therefore_o let_v we_o not_o reckon_v without_o our_o host_n as_o the_o proverb_n say_v by_o make_v ourselves_o believe_v that_o god_n will_v accept_v what_o we_o think_v good_a but_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o jesus_n christ_n can_v boot_n we_o at_o all_o except_o we_o seek_v the_o fullness_n of_o our_o salvation_n in_o he_o for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v in_o the_o scripture_n that_o the_o father_n have_v give_v we_o he_o as_o a_o help_n to_o

favour_n that_o we_o must_v find_v at_o god_n hand_n be_v communicate_v to_o we_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a point_n for_o every_o man_n will_v well_o enough_o grant_v that_o we_o must_v resort_v untoo_o god_n because_o he_o be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o welfare_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n wander_v in_o their_o own_o windlass_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o come_v untoo_o god_n do_v go_v from_o he_o as_o it_o be_v too_o be_v see_v in_o the_o papacy_n where_o wretched_a hypocrite_n &_o the_o

the_o mean_a while_n jesus_n christ_n be_v let_v alone_o and_o no_o man_n make_v account_n of_o he_o but_o they_o rather_o hie_v they_o to_o some_o stock_n or_o stone_n which_o they_o call_v their_o

what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o bind_v in_o this_o text_n and_o here_o s._n paul_n show_v again_o that_o the_o true_a perfection_n of_o god_n child_n consist_v in_o abace_v themselves_o so_o as_o they_o follow_v not_o the_o rule_n of_o their_o own_o brain_n and_o affection_n for_o we_o be_v utter_o corrupt_v then_o can_v we_o not_o be_v but_o rebel_n against_o god_n all_o the_o time_n of_o
