this_o holiness_n of_o thyself_o or_o by_o thy_o own_o merit_n but_o that_o thou_o be_v therefore_o holy_a for_o that_o thou_o haste_v the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v thou_o and_o for_o that_o thou_o be_v become_v entire_o righteous_a and_o holy_a through_o christ_n these_o thing_n must_v thou_o confess_v if_o thou_o will_v be_v a_o christian_n for_o this_o be_v extreme_a ignominy_n &_o blasphemy_n to_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n if_o we_o shall_v so_o deny_v this_o honour_n to_o his_o blood_n as_o not_o to_o believe_v that_o by_o it_o only_o our_o sin_n be_v clean_o wash_v away_o and_o we_o sanctify_v thou_o must_v believe_v therefore_o and_o confess_v that_o thou_o be_v holy_a yet_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n not_o by_o thy_o own_o righteousness_n and_o this_o thou_o must_v do_v with_o such_o certainty_n and_o constancy_n that_o in_o this_o cause_n thou_o may_v not_o stick_v if_o need_v be_v to_o spend_v even_o thy_o life_n

say_v the_o apostle_n come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o we_o be_v holy_a when_o we_o believe_v and_o obey_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v sprinkle_v with_o his_o blood_n and_o here_o saint_n peter_n have_v use_v somewhat_o a_o other_o manner_n of_o speech_n than_o saint_n paul_n yet_o be_v it_o in_o effect_n as_o much_o as_o when_o s._n paul_n say_v we_o be_v save_v through_o faith_n in_o christ_n because_o it_o be_v faith_n which_o make_v that_o we_o be_v attentive_a and_o obediente_a to_o christ_n and_o his_o holy_a worde_n wherefore_o to_o obey_v the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o christ_n to_o be_v sprinkle_v with_o his_o blood_n and_o to_o believe_v for_o it_o be_v very_o grievous_a to_o nature_n to_o be_v so_o whole_o subject_v to_o christ_n as_o altogether_o to_o forslow_v and_o cease_v from_o our_o own_o matter_n altogether_o to_o neglect_v our_o own_o cause_n and_o to_o count_v all_o that_o we_o do_v to_o be_v sin_n nature_n therefore_o stout_o resist_v and_o strive_v against_o this_o doctrine_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o it_o must_v at_o the_o last_o stoop_v and_o yield_v itself_o thereunto_o of_o sprinkling_a we_o read_v in_o the_o 51._o psalm_n sprinkle_v i_o with_o hyssop_n o_o lord_n and_o i_o be_v clean_a he_o allude_v to_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n from_o whence_o saint_n peter_n take_v this_o kind_n of_o speech_n thereby_o to_o revele_v moses_n unto_o we_o and_o as_o it_o be_v to_o bring_v we_o into_o the_o king_n highwaie_o of_o right_o understand_v the_o scripture_n for_o when_o moses_n have_v build_v the_o tabernacle_n he_o take_v the_o blood_n of_o goat_n and_o therewith_o sprinkle_v both_o the_o tabernacle_n and_o all_o the_o people_n now_o this_o sprinkling_a do_v not_o inwardlie_o sanctify_v in_o spirit_n but_o only_o outward_o and_o in_o external_a thing_n and_o therefore_o be_v there_o need_v of_o a_o spiritual_a cleansing_n forasmuch_o as_o that_o sanctification_n be_v outward_a and_o carnal_a whereof_o there_o be_v no_o regard_n before_o god_n yet_o do_v god_n thereby_o as_o it_o be_v by_o a_o type_n or_o figure_n signify_v this_o spiritual_a sanctification_n that_o than_o which_o s._n peter_n here_o say_v be_v thus_o much_o in_o effect_n the_o jew_n please_v themselves_o in_o outward_a holiness_n whereby_o they_o be_v think_v righteous_a and_o of_o a_o

therefore_o herein_o you_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o rejoice_v hereof_o it_o be_v that_o the_o gentile_n be_v no_o more_o gentile_n even_o as_o those_o righteous_a jew_n be_v no_o more_o righteous_a by_o their_o sprinkling_a for_o these_o thing_n be_v now_o change_v and_o alter_v none_o other_o sprinkling_a be_v require_v but_o that_o which_o may_v convert_v we_o and_o make_v we_o spiritual_a now_o to_o sprinkle_v after_o this_o sort_n be_v nothing_o else_o then_o to_o preach_v that_o christ_n have_v for_o this_o cause_n shed_v his_o blood_n only_o to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o unto_o his_o father_n and_o to_o say_v most_o dear_a father_n thou_o see_v here_o my_o blood_n which_o i_o have_v shed_v for_o this_o sinner_n here_o if_o thou_o do_v believe_v thou_o be_v true_o
