procure_v good_a will_n towards_o man_n preach_v peace_n on_o earth_n how_o little_a ground_n now_o have_v our_o author_n to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v redeem_a by_o the_o preach_a of_o the_o gospel_n when_o the_o preach_a of_o the_o gospel_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o declaration_n of_o that_o redemption_n which_o christ_n have_v make_v of_o jew_n and_o gentile_n with_o god_n and_o the_o way_n and_o method_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o it_o and_o now_o to_o draw_v to_o a_o close_a of_o this_o matter_n let_v we_o review_v our_o author_n doctrine_n of_o redemption_n the_o redemption_n of_o jew_n and_o gentile_n he_o make_v to_o differ_v as_o much_o as_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n and_o that_o of_o christian_n 1._o they_o differ_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o redemption_n that_o which_o they_o be_v redeem_a from_o the_o jew_n they_o be_v redeem_a from_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n the_o gentile_n they_o be_v redeemed_a from_o idolatry_n and_o impure_a practice_n 2._o they_o differ_v in_o the_o manner_n of_o procurement_n for_o the_o jew_n christ_n say_v he_o by_o his_o death_n put_v a_o end_n to_o that_o legal_a dispensation_n and_o so_o their_o turn_n be_v serve_v that_o little_a redemption_n that_o they_o need_v which_o be_v all_o our_o author_n can_v afford_v they_o be_v actual_o accomplish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v a_o proper_a and_o immediate_a cause_n of_o their_o redemption_n such_o a_o one_o as_o it_o be_v but_o then_o the_o gentile_n they_o be_v redeemed_a after_o another_o fashion_n by_o the_o preach_a of_o the_o gospel_n whereby_o they_o be_v turn_v from_o idolatry_n and_o impure_a practice_n and_o this_o shall_v be_v call_v redemption_n because_o it_o be_v dangerous_a to_o ascribe_v it_o to_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n for_o a_o obvious_a reason_n that_o he_o know_v of_o but_o because_o the_o scripture_n say_v we_o be_v redeem_a by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o give_v that_o blood_n a_o concernment_n therein_o therefore_o to_o stop_v the_o â—…uth_n of_o the_o scripture_n it_o shall_v be_v say_v we_o owe_v the_o preach_a of_o the_o gospel_n to_o the_o blood_n of_o christ._n 3_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o from_o whence_o our_o author_n flatter_v himself_o with_o hope_n of_o great_a success_n and_o that_o be_v by_o misrepresenting_a the_o analogy_n between_o the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n two_o thing_n he_o attempt_v 1._o to_o show_v what_o it_o be_v under_o the_o law_n to_o which_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n his_o ascension_n into_o heaven_n and_o present_v his_o blood_n to_o god_n do_v answer_n 2._o what_o it_o be_v under_o the_o law_n to_o which_o his_o intercession_n answer_v which_o project_n of_o our_o author_n have_v be_v contrive_v and_o manage_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o subtlety_n by_o those_o who_o will_v storm_n or_o blush_v to_o see_v their_o argument_n thus_o miserable_o abase_v 1._o to_o the_o former_a of_o these_o he_o express_v himself_o thus_o now_o as_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o his_o ascension_n into_o heaven_n and_o present_v his_o blood_n to_o god_n in_o that_o most_o holy_a place_n do_v answer_v to_o the_o first_o sprinkle_v of_o the_o blood_n under_o the_o law_n which_o confirm_v the_o moysaicall_a covenant_n as_o the_o apostle_n discourse_n in_o heb._n 9_o etc._n etc._n in_o which_o few_o word_n he_o have_v heap_v up_o more_o absurdity_n and_o folly_n than_o another_o must_v hope_v to_o bring_v into_o twice_o as_o many_o for_o 1._o here_o be_v a_o supposition_n of_o christ_n present_n his_o blood_n to_o god_n in_o heaven_n distinct_a from_o his_o intercession_n which_o when_o he_o shall_v offer_v to_o prove_v it_o may_v be_v time_n to_o consider_v it_o 2._o he_o suppose_v that_o christ_n ascension_n into_o heaven_n answer_v the_o first_o sprinkle_v of_o blood_n under_o the_o law_n a_o most_o ridiculous_a supposition_n for_o what_o be_v there_o in_o sprinkle_v that_o answer_n to_o ascension_n or_o bear_v the_o least_o analogy_n to_o it_o sure_o these_o gentleman_n that_o create_v such_o parallel_n and_o fancy_v such_o uncouth_a resemblance_n must_v have_v some_o mad_a design_n in_o their_o head_n which_o nothing_o will_v subserve_v but_o such_o force_a allusion_n and_o i_o do_v not_o now_o wonder_v that_o he_o shall_v so_o tedious_o rail_v at_o the_o use_n of_o allusion_n in_o other_o for_o they_o will_v deserve_v the_o most_o of_o scorn_n that_o can_v be_v throw_v upon_o they_o if_o they_o be_v all_o like_o his_o own_o 3._o that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n do_v answer_v the_o sprinkle_n of_o blood_n under_o the_o law_n which_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n be_v very_o true_a but_o then_o 1._o it_o must_v be_v remember_v in_o what_o respect_n it_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n not_o mere_o as_o a_o witness_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o he_o have_v preach_v but_o as_o answer_v the_o demand_n and_o claim_v of_o the_o govern_v justice_n of_o god_n as_o we_o have_v before_o show_v 2._o it_o must_v be_v remember_v also_o that_o it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o covenant_n as_o he_o have_v impose_v upon_o we_o but_o the_o true_a covenant_n of_o grace_n wherein_o god_n promise_v to_o give_v that_o which_o our_o author_n will_v not_o own_o the_o new_a heart_n new_a spirit_n and_o new_a obedience_n 3._o that_o to_o confirm_v a_o covenant_n be_v not_o all_o the_o design_n of_o its_o sprinkle_n but_o divert_v of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n procure_v his_o favour_n etc._n etc._n so_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n have_v great_a end_n than_o confirm_v of_o the_o truth_n he_o teach_v viz._n the_o appease_n god_n just_a displeasure_n procure_v his_o actual_a love_n pacify_v of_o the_o conscience_n cleanse_v the_o soul_n 4._o he_o suppose_v also_o that_o the_o apostle_n discourse_v to_o this_o purpose_n rom._n 9_o which_o be_v to_o make_v the_o apostle_n accessary_a to_o his_o own_o groundless_a foppery_n who_o be_v indeed_o perfect_o innocent_a of_o these_o crime_n for_o 1._o the_o sprinkle_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o the_o apostle_n mention_n heb._n 9_o 9_o in_o that_o mention_a exod._n 24._o 6._o now_o there_o be_v another_o sprinkle_n of_o blood_n antecedent_n to_o that_o which_o we_o read_v of_o exod._n 12._o to_o which_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n do_v answer_n and_o to_o which_o the_o apostle_n refer_v as_o be_v evident_a from_o heb._n 11._o 28._o heb._n 12._o 24._o 2._o the_o sprinkle_n of_o blood_n heb._n 9_o 19_o be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o exod._n 24._o 6._o show_n evident_o that_o as_o the_o whole_a concern_v of_o the_o blood_n sprinkle_v at_o that_o time_n be_v not_o confirm_v a_o covenant_n but_o atone_v god_n so_o the_o whole_a concern_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o take_v up_o in_o confirm_v a_o covenant_n much_o less_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o he_o will_v miscall_a a_o covenant_n but_o in_o reconcile_a god_n to_o man_n pay_v a_o price_n of_o redemption_n to_o god_n etc._n etc._n 3._o that_o the_o apostle_n carry_v another_o argument_n be_v evident_a for_o 1._o the_o typical_a interest_n which_o those_o sacrifice_n have_v in_o redemption_n be_v accomplish_v before_o the_o
