sometime_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v we_o to_o observe_v the_o thing_n which_o by_o tradition_n have_v be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o and_o command_v to_o observe_v the_o good_a order_n and_o ordinance_n establish_v in_o the_o church_n now_o a_o man_n not_o know_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n when_o he_o hear_v such_o speech_n may_v

these_o thing_n when_o a_o man_n hear_v or_o read_v who_o be_v igno_fw-la rant_v of_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n he_o may_v imagine_v with_o our_o new_a up_o start_v

call_v and_o justify_v they_o can_v willing_o sin_v any_o more_o and_o many_o such_o error_n he_o may_v run_v into_o but_o if_o he_o understand_v that_o sin_n in_o those_o place_n signify_v sin_n against_o the_o evangelical_a law_n the_o two_o commandment_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o command_v we_o to_o believe_v and_o repent_v and_o not_o every_o sin_n against_o any_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n he_o can_v be_v deceive_v for_o sin_n against_o the_o gospel_n be_v when_o a_o man_n be_v before_o call_v to_o believe_v and_o profess_v the_o gospel_n and_o have_v receive_v the_o commandment_n thereof_o which_o enjoin_v repentance_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o belief_n in_o this_o jesus_n christ_n who_o the_o gospel_n preach_v do_v afterwards_o rebel_v against_o these_o two_o

save_a grace_n in_o he_o and_o if_o we_o thus_o understand_v sin_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v deceive_v so_o likewise_o the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n do_v tell_v we_o that_o if_o we_o do_v such_o and_o such_o good_a work_n we_o be_v righteous_a if_o we_o call_v on_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o he_o will_v pronounce_v they_o the_o

we_o may_v by_o these_o speech_n be_v move_v to_o think_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v and_o save_v by_o their_o work_n and_o may_v merit_v heaven_n by_o good_a deed_n as_o the_o jew_n and_o papist_n do_v believe_v but_o if_o we_o know_v that_o by_o good_a deed_n and_o righteous_a work_n the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n do_v common_o mean_v not_o simple_a work_n of_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n but_o work_v do_v by_o a_o true_a save_n and_o justify_v faith_n he_o can_v be_v deceive_v for_o such_o work_n have_v these_o two_o prerogative_n above_o all_o other_o first_o in_o that_o they_o be_v

abide_v in_o we_o as_o a_o immortal_a seed_n they_o be_v infallible_a token_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o do_v assure_v unto_o we_o the_o crown_n of_o glory_n which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v for_o we_o and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n which_o be_v the_o inheritance_n of_o son_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v true_o say_v that_o he_o which_o do_v such_o work_n be_v righteous_a and_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o enjoy_v all_o blessedness_n not_o mean_v that_o they_o make_v he_o righteous_a or_o merit_v heaven_n but_o that_o they_o be_v the_o evidence_n of_o his_o right_n to_o
