answer_v the_o apostle_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o ordinary_a condition_n of_o man_n 4.17_o 1._o cor._n 15.51_o 1._o thess_n 4.17_o so_o that_o those_o which_o in_o a_o moment_n shall_v be_v despoil_v of_o corruption_n by_o a_o sudden_a change_n be_v except_v out_o of_o this_o number_n for_o in_o this_o manner_n of_o speech_n he_o comprehend_v none_o but_o those_o which_o of_o long_a time_n have_v wait_v in_o the_o dust_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o their_o body_n verse_n 28_o he_o shall_v appear_v the_o second_o time_n without_o sin_n the_o apostle_n still_o aim_v at_o this_o mark_n to_o wit_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o vex_v ourselves_o with_o vain_a and_o froward_a desire_n after_o new_a purgation_n because_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n alone_o be_v sufficient_a for_o us._n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v that_o he_o once_o appear_v with_o sacrifice_n to_o purge_v away_o sin_n and_o that_o by_o his_o second_o appear_v he_o shall_v open_o manifest_v what_o efficacy_n his_o death_n have_v have_v so_o as_o sin_n shall_v no_o more_o have_v power_n to_o hurt_v to_o abolish_v sin_n that_o be_v by_o his_o satisfaction_n to_o deliver_v those_o from_o the_o fault_n and_o from_o condemnation_n which_o have_v sin_v he_o say_v many_o for_o all_o as_o in_o rom._n 5.15_o true_a it_o be_v that_o christ_n death_n profit_v not_o all_o but_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v because_o their_o incredulity_n hinder_v they_o but_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o contend_v hereabout_o in_o this_o place_n because_o the_o apostle_n dispute_v not_o whether_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n profit_v a_o few_o or_o many_o but_o his_o plain_a meaning_n be_v that_o he_o die_v for_o other_o and_o not_o for_o himself_o wherefore_o he_o oppose_v many_o to_o one_o only_a but_o what_o mean_v he_o by_o these_o word_n that_o christ_n shall_v appear_v without_o sin_n by_o the_o word_n sin_n some_o understand_v the_o purgation_n or_o sacrifice_n purge_v sin_n as_o rom._n 8.3_o and_o 2._o cor._n 5.21_o and_o in_o many_o other_o place_n of_o moses_n but_o in_o my_o judgement_n he_o mean_v something_o more_o special_a to_o wit_n that_o when_o christ_n shall_v come_v he_o shall_v manifest_v how_o true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o have_v abolish_v sin_n so_o as_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o need_n of_o any_o other_o sacrifice_n to_o appease_v god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v when_o we_o shall_v come_v before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o christ_n than_o we_o shall_v feel_v that_o nothing_o be_v want_v in_o his_o death_n to_o which_o that_o also_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v which_o he_o add_v by_o and_o by_o after_o to_o salvation_n to_o those_o which_o look_v for_o he_o other_o do_v construe_v it_o otherwise_o on_o this_o manner_n to_o those_o that_o look_v for_o he_o for_o salvation_n but_o i_o think_v the_o other_o sense_n be_v more_o proper_a for_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o those_o shall_v feel_v a_o full_a salvation_n from_o christ_n who_o with_o quiet_a mind_n do_v rest_n upon_o it_o for_o this_o look_n for_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o present_a matter_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o scripture_n in_o other_o place_n attribute_n this_o in_o common_a to_o all_o the_o faithful_a that_o they_o wait_v for_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o end_n that_o by_o it_o they_o may_v be_v discern_v from_o the_o unbeliever_n to_o who_o also_o the_o only_a mention_n of_o this_o his_o come_n be_v fearful_a as_o soon_o as_o they_o hear_v tell_v of_o it_o but_o because_o the_o apostle_n contend_v now_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o rest_v ourselves_o satisfy_v in_o the_o only_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n he_o call_v it_o the_o look_v for_o of_o christ_n when_o be_v content_v with_o this_o only_a redemption_n we_o lust_v not_o after_o new_a remedy_n or_o help_n chap._n x._o 1_o for_o the_o law_n have_v the_o shadow_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v and_o not_o the_o very_a image_n of_o the_o thing_n can_v

the_o lively_a colour_n with_o the_o pencil_n the_o apostle_n than_o put_v this_o difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n to_o wit_n that_o that_o which_o at_o this_o day_n be_v draw_v and_o paint_v with_o fresh_a and_o lively_a colour_n be_v only_o shadow_v out_o under_o the_o law_n by_o a_o rude_a or_o gross_a draught_n thus_o he_o yet_o again_o confirm_v that_o which_o he_o say_v before_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o law_n be_v no_o vain_a thing_n neither_o the_o ceremony_n thereof_o unprofitable_a for_o although_o it_o have_v not_o the_o perfect_a image_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n as_o if_o the_o workman_n have_v put_v his_o last_o endeavour_n to_o it_o yet_o even_o this_o rough_a draught_n be_v great_o profitable_a to_o the_o ancient_a father_n albeit_o our_o condition_n be_v

the_o same_o christ_n the_o same_o righteousness_n the_o same_o sanctification_n and_o the_o same_o salvation_n there_o be_v no_o difference_n or_o diversity_n but_o in_o the_o manner_n of_o set_v they_o forth_o i_o think_v by_o these_o word_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v he_o mean_v eternal_a good_a thing_n i_o confess_v indeed_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n which_o we_o now_o enjoy_v be_v long_o ago_o foretell_v to_o come_v but_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n signify_v that_o we_o have_v the_o lively_a portraiture_n of_o good_a thing_n to_o come_v he_o mean_v then_o that_o sample_n and_o spiritual_a pattern_n the_o full_a enjoy_n whereof_o be_v defer_v until_o the_o day_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o to_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o yet_o i_o do_v again_o

this_o place_n be_v not_o only_o so_o call_v in_o regard_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n but_o because_o we_o also_o do_v yet_o hope_v and_o wait_v for_o they_o which_o they_o offer_v year_n by_o

reason_v then_o where_o there_o be_v no_o more_o conscience_n and_o remorse_n for_o sin_n there_o also_o be_v no_o more_o need_n of_o oblation_n now_o under_o the_o law_n they_o offer_v one_o and_o the_o same_o offer_v often_o therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o god_n be_v not_o satisfy_v the_o condemnation_n take_v away_o neither_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n quiet_v for_o if_o it_o have_v be_v

we_o must_v note_v the_o antithesis_fw-la that_o be_v between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o conscience_n he_o say_v that_o those_o who_o offer_v sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n can_v not_o be_v wash_v by_o they_o spiritual_o or_o inward_o within_o the_o conscience_n his_o reason_n be_v add_v because_o all_o the_o ceremony_n be_v carnal_a what_o leave_v he_o now_o more_o unto_o they_o verse_n 10_o some_o indeed_o do_v common_o understand_v this_o as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v say_v that_o this_o wash_n be_v a_o profitable_a schoolmaster_n among_o man_n serve_v they_o for_o honesty_n but_o those_o which_o be_v of_o this_o opinion_n do_v not_o weigh_v the_o promise_n which_o be_v add_v hereunto_o as_o they_o deserve_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o fancy_n which_o ought_v utter_o to_o

that_o when_o we_o esteem_v they_o by_o themselves_o they_o be_v but_o weak_a element_n of_o the_o world_n as_o s._n paul_n call_v they_o gal._n 4.9_o whereas_o he_o say_v until_o the_o time_n of_o

the_o law_n be_v from_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o christ_n be_v come_v a_o high_a priest_n verse_n 11_o etc._n etc._n now_o he_o bring_v forth_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n to_o the_o end_n that_o turn_v away_o their_o eye_n from_o the_o figure_n they_o may_v look_v unto_o christ_n in_o who_o the_o substance_n be_v to_o be_v find_v for_o he_o which_o believe_v that_o all_o that_o which_o be_v then_o shadow_v out_o be_v true_o manifest_v in_o christ_n will_v no_o long_o entangle_v his_o mind_n about_o shadow_n but_o will_v embrace_v the_o truth_n and_o the_o very_a body_n itself_o now_o we_o must_v diligent_o note_v the_o part_n wherein_o he_o compare_v christ_n with_o the_o high_a priest_n who_o be_v in_o old_a time_n under_o the_o law_n he_o say_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n only_o enter_v every_o year_n once_o into_o the_o sanctuary_n with_o blood_n for_o the_o purgation_n of_o sin_n christ_n have_v this_o in_o common_a with_o he_o that_o he_o only_o be_v put_v into_o the_o dignity_n and_o office_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n that_o christ_n be_v come_v upon_o this_o and_o have_v bring_v with_o he_o eternal_a benefit_n which_o cause_v that_o his_o priesthood_n be_v perpetual_a second_o the_o ancient_a priest_n &_o we_o who_o be_v christ_n have_v this_o in_o common_a that_o both_o of_o they_o enter_v into_o the_o holy_a of_o all_o by_o the_o sanctuary_n but_o in_o this_o they_o differ_v that_o christ_n only_o be_v enter_v into_o heaven_n by_o the_o temple_n of_o his_o body_n whereas_o the_o most_o holy_a place_n be_v open_a to_o the_o high_a priest_n only_o once_o a_o year_n to_o make_v the_o purgation_n of_o sin_n this_o do_v already_o somewhat_o dark_o represent_v the_o only_a oblation_n of_o christ_n this_o once_o then_o be_v common_a to_o they_o both_o but_o to_o the_o earthly_a priest_n it_o be_v yearly_o and_o to_o the_o heavenly_a priest_n eternal_o until_o the_o consummation_n of_o the_o world_n the_o offering_n of_o blood_n be_v common_a to_o they_o both_o but_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n in_o the_o blood_n because_o christ_n offer_v not_o up_o the_o blood_n of_o beast_n but_o his_o own_o blood_n satisfaction_n be_v common_a to_o they_o both_o but_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o law_n be_v reiterated_a every_o year_n because_o it_o be_v without_o efficacy_n contrariwise_o the_o satisfaction_n make_v by_o christ_n have_v his_o efficacy_n always_o and_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o eternal_a salvation_n thus_o there_o be_v scarce_o a_o word_n which_o have_v not_o his_o weight_n whereas_o other_o have_v turn_v it_o christ_n a_o high_a priest_n present_a etc._n etc._n do_v not_o right_o express_v the_o apostle_n

christ_n therefore_o have_v wherewithal_o for_o to_o hold_v we_o and_o satisfy_v we_o in_o himself_o by_o a_o great_a and_o more_o perfect_a tabernacle_n etc._n etc._n although_o some_o expound_v this_o place_n d●●ers_v way_n yet_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o apostle_n understand_v it_o of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n for_o as_o the_o leviticall_a priest_n in_o former_a time_n enter_v into_o the_o most_o holy_a place_n by_o the_o common_a sanctuary_n so_o christ_n be_v enter_v into_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n by_o his_o body_n because_o ordain_v to_o bring_v man_n to_o christ_n the_o eternal_a salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n only_o depend_v on_o he_o so_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v true_a testimony_n of_o this_o salvation_n what_o mean_v the_o apostle_n then_o when_o he_o mention_v the_o purification_n of_o the_o flesh_n sure_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o figurative_a or_o sacramental_a purgation_n in_o this_o sense_n if_o the_o blood_n of_o beast_n be_v a_o true_a witness_n of_o

christ_n himself_o who_o be_v the_o truth_n i_o say_v not_o bear_v witness_n of_o purgation_n by_o outward_a ceremony_n but_o shall_v indeed_o give_v it_o to_o the_o conscience_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n from_o the_o sign_n to_o the_o thing_n signify_v because_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o thing_n far_o excel_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o sign_n who_o by_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n
