be_v short_a s._n paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o law_n after_o the_o interpretation_n wherewith_o it_o have_v be_v corrupt_v by_o the_o hypocrite_n that_o buzy_v their_o head_n about_o pelt_a trifle_n and_o will_v needs_o make_v meritorious_a deed_n of_o they_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n do_v cast_v man_n conscience_n into_o so_o streyt_n bond_n as_o be_v enough_o too_o choke_v they_o but_o hereof_o enough_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o nevertheless_o we_o must_v call_v to_o mind_n how_o the_o law_n have_v be_v compare_v with_o the_o gospel_n because_o that_o such_o as_o will_v needs_o purchase_v themselves_o rightuousnesse_n by_o it_o do_v bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o god_n be_v bind_v unto_o they_o for_o their_o do_v of_o their_o duty_n and_o they_o think_v they_o do_v it_o thorough_o in_o deed_n 5._o when_o they_o hear_v this_o promise_n he_o that_o do_v these_o thing_n shall_v live_v by_o and_o by_o they_o streyn_a themselves_o and_o they_o believe_v that_o they_o shall_v bring_v the_o matter_n about_o to_o perform_v all_o that_o ever_o god_n require_v and_o command_v and_o when_o they_o have_v once_o get_v the_o promise_n by_o the_o end_n streytwayes_o they_o look_v for_o the_o wage_n too_o &_o they_o never_o think_v any_o more_o that_o their_o salvation_n be_v a_o free_a gift_n but_o that_o they_o have_v deserve_v and_o earn_v god_n promise_n so_o that_o the_o eternal_a life_n be_v with_o they_o but_o a_o recompense_n of_o their_o desert_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o law_n when_o s._n paul_n compare_v it_o with_o the_o gospel_n and_o as_o touch_v the_o gospel_n he_o do_v we_o to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n whereby_o god_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o father_n with_o covenant_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v set_v free_a from_o the_o condemnation_n of_o satan_n and_o sin_n yea_o and_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n for_o as_o we_o have_v see_v afore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o all_o such_o as_o fulfil_v not_o the_o law_n in_o all_o point_n shall_v be_v accurse_v now_o the_o case_n be_v so_o that_o all_o of_o we_o be_v endanger_v and_o by_o that_o mean_v all_o the_o world_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o despair_n and_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n unless_o god_n draw_v wretched_a sinner_n out_o of_o that_o condemnation_n and_o acquit_v they_o of_o the_o sentence_n that_o be_v pronounce_v against_o they_o now_o than_o we_o see_v after_o what_o manner_n s._n paul_n take_v the_o name_n of_o the_o law_n namely_o that_o he_o mean_v not_o that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o moses_n do_v not_o make_v we_o right_o the_o child_n of_o god_n or_o that_o it_o contain_v not_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v for_o the_o everlasting_a salvation_n of_o mankind_n but_o only_o that_o before_o jesus_n christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n there_o be_v not_o yet_o any_o full_a liberty_n or_o freedom_n as_o there_o be_v now_o adays_o &_o moreover_o that_o the_o hypocrite_n abuse_v the_o law_n by_o their_o false_a interpretation_n for_o they_o surmise_v that_o they_o can_v make_v god_n amends_n and_o thereby_o purchase_v favour_n at_o his_o hand_n and_o therefore_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v in_o bondage_n till_o we_o be_v beget_v again_o by_o another_o kind_n of_o seed_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o the_o gospel_n but_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o these_o word_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o agar_n or_o sinai_n represent_v the_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v at_o that_o time_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n the_o same_o city_n which_o have_v erst_o be_v god_n sanctuary_n &_o shall_v have_v be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o heavenly_a doctrine_n 3._o according_a too_o esay_n and_o micheas_n which_o say_v the_o law_n shall_v come_v from_o zion_n 2._o and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n from_o jerusalem_n howbeit_o for_o asmuch_o as_o the_o jew_n be_v corrupt_a and_o have_v mingle_v their_o own_o invention_n &_o gloze_n with_o the_o pureness_n of_o the_o true_a doctrine_n yea_o and_o have_v forsake_v jesus_n christ_n the_o fountain_n of_o life_n s._n paul_n say_v that_o that_o jerusalem_n of_o they_o be_v like_o agar_n the_o bondmayd_n &_o like_o the_o mountain_n sinai_n which_o can_v engender_v but_o to_o condemnation_n and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o it_o serve_v too_o show_v that_o god_n do_v never_o so_o tie_v his_o grace_n to_o any_o one_o place_n but_o that_o he_o punish_v the_o thanklesnesse_n of_o the_o inhabiter_n 13._o when_o they_o will_v not_o have_v the_o wit_n to_o make_v their_o benefit_n of_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o he_o have_v put_v into_o their_o hand_n behold_v jerusalem_n be_v call_v god_n holy_a city_n his_o royal_a palace_n his_o house_n and_o the_o plac●_n of_o his_o abode_n all_o these_o title_n be_v give_v it_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 53._o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o she_o be_v become_v like_o sinai_n a_o barren_a hill_n in_o a_o desert_n and_o elendge_v place_n and_o out_o of_o the_o bound_n of_o the_o holy_a land_n which_o god_n call_v his_o rest_a place_n and_o the_o heritage_n of_o his_o faithful_a and_o chozen_a see_v there_o be_v such_o a_o change_n in_o the_o city_n of_o jerusalem_n which_o have_v be_v chozen_v of_o god_n and_o honour_a with_o so_o many_o goodly_a and_o excellent_a title_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o all_o such_o people_n as_o do_v now_o adays_o refuze_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n although_o they_o be_v exalt_v to_o the_o like_a honour_n yet_o can_v god_n well_o enough_o make_v they_o to_o tumble_v into_o all_o reproach_n we_o see_v what_o be_v say_v of_o all_o those_o city_n where_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v preach_v the_o gospel_n 21._o as_o of_o capernaum_n and_o the_o rest_n for_o they_o may_v have_v boast_v of_o their_o have_v of_o the_o message_n of_o salvation_n first_o afore_o all_o other_o and_o of_o christ_n be_v conversant_a among_o they_o rahter_n than_o at_o jerusalem_fw-la but_o he_o say_v thou_o shall_v be_v cast_v down_o to_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n and_o that_o be_v because_o they_o be_v stubborn_a &_o malicious_o wilful_a in_o disdeyn_v to_o receyve_v the_o grace_n that_o be_v preach_v unto_o they_o yea_o &_o we_o see_v what_o jeremie_n say_v of_o silo._n 12_o because_o the_o jew_n boast_v so_o much_o of_o their_o town_n of_o jerusalem_fw-la under_o the_o colour_n of_o the_o temple_n and_o the_o altar_n go_v your_o way_n to_o silo_n say_v he_o be_v not_o the_o ark_n place_v there_o a_o long_a time_n do_v not_o man_n resort_v thither_o from_o all_o coast_n to_o worship_n god_n do_v they_o not_o offer_v sacrifize_v there_o and_o what_o see_v you_o now_o a_o terrible_a token_n of_o god_n vengeance_n because_o they_o have_v not_o profit_v themselves_o by_o the_o benefit_n that_o be_v offer_v to_o they_o first_o of_o all_o now_o therefore_o let_v we_o apply_v this_o to_o our_o own_o instruction_n that_o whensoever_o god_n shall_v have_v be_v so_o gracious_a to_o we_o as_o to_o make_v his_o abode_n among_o we_o &_o as_o it_o be_v to_o plant_v his_o royal_a siege_n with_o we_o too_o reign_v over_o we_o we_o may_v walk_v in_o fear_n &_o warenesse_n indever_v on_o our_o side_n to_o obey_v he_o &_o to_o shroud_v ourselves_o sober_o &_o advise_o under_o his_o wing_n for_o if_o we_o think_v to_o hold_v he_o bind_v unto_o we_o &_o thereupon_o presume_v to_o be_v wilful_a in_o our_o own_o conceit_n &_o unhalow_a the_o gracious_a gift_n which_o he_o have_v dedicate_v to_o our_o salvation_n sure_o such_o lewdness_n shall_v not_o abide_v unpunished_a so_o they_o we_o be_v warn_v by_o the_o example_n of_o jerusalem_fw-la to_o yield_v ourselves_o peasable_o to_o the_o obey_n of_o our_o god_n &_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o govern_v we_o apply_v ourselves_o to_o he_o in_o all_o respect_n without_o puff_v up_o into_o vain_a presumption_n when_o he_o shall_v have_v bestow_v any_o of_o his_o spiritual_a gift_n upon_o we_o but_o rather_o confess_v that_o we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o 〈◊〉_d behold_v unto_o he_o &_o thereupon_o take_v occasion_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o here_o by_o the_o way_n we_o see_v what_o a_o fondness_n it_o be_v of_o the_o papist_n too_o tie_v god_n unto_o rome_n under_o colour_n as_o they_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o apostolic_a sea_n let_v we_o put_v the_o case_n it_o be_v so_o although_o we_o know_v not_o why_o for_o all_o that_o they_o allege_v of_o s._n peter_n be_v but_o tale_n and_o stark_o lie_v it_o be_v
