in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o have_v the_o four_o particular_a doct._n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n establish_v the_o law_n by_o make_v it_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n to_o his_o people_n

in_o the_o order_n of_o themselves_o all_o the_o power_n of_o their_o soul_n affection_n of_o their_o heart_n their_o thought_n word_n and_o action_n and_o therefore_o christ_n himself_o in_o divers_a passage_n follow_v press_v not_o only_o the_o outward_a but_o also_o the_o inward_a observation_n of_o the_o law_n a_o certain_a man_n ask_v christ_n this_o question_n 40._o which_o be_v the_o great_a commandment_n in_o the_o law_n jesus_n say_v unto_o he_o thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o mind_n this_o be_v the_o first_o and_o great_a commandment_n and_o the_o second_o be_v like_a unto_o it_o thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o on_o these_o two_o commandment_n hang_v all_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n i_o conceive_v the_o lord_n christ_n in_o this_o answer_n do_v clear_o confirm_v the_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n by_o his_o authority_n 1._o he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v open_v the_o bowel_n of_o the_o law_n and_o discover_v the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n of_o it_o show_v that_o it_o consist_v in_o two_o thing_n 1._o entire_a and_o perfect_a love_n to_o god_n 2._o as_o subordinate_a hereunto_o sincere_a love_n to_o our_o neighbour_n 1._o because_o all_o thing_n command_v in_o the_o law_n be_v either_o love_n to_o god_n and_o man_n or_o such_o thing_n as_o love_n suppose_v as_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n or_o such_o affection_n thought_n word_n action_n as_o accompany_v or_o flow_v from_o love_n 2._o all_o sin_n of_o omission_n or_o commission_n towards_o god_n or_o man_n be_v either_o want_n of_o love_n or_o such_o as_o proceed_v from_o the_o want_n of_o love_n now_o in_o that_o christ_n do_v so_o high_o extol_v these_o two_o commandment_n which_o comprehend_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o law_n he_o establish_v the_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n for_o his_o people_n second_o in_o this_o speech_n he_o have_v respect_n not_o only_o to_o the_o ten_o commandment_n deliver_v exod._n 20._o but_o also_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n throughout_o the_o old_a testament_n say_v on_o these_o two_o etc._n etc._n the_o prophet_n open_v and_o enlarge_n in_o particular_n what_o be_v general_o comprise_v in_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o if_o we_o compare_v this_o with_o what_o we_o have_v before_o where_o he_o say_v he_o come_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n we_o may_v gather_v that_o he_o establish_v the_o law_n deliver_v by_o moses_n and_o expound_v by_o the_o prophet_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n to_o his_o people_n again_o how_o frequent_o do_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o apostle_n establish_v the_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n for_o his_o people_n what_o be_v those_o thing_n which_o the_o apostle_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o name_n require_v of_o christian_n but_o thing_n command_v in_o the_o law_n and_o what_o be_v those_o sin_n which_o they_o call_v upon_o christian_n to_o shun_v but_o sin_n forbid_v in_o the_o law_n let_v love_n be_v without_o dissimulation_n 9_o abhor_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a cleave_v to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a etc._n etc._n what_o multitude_n of_o instance_n may_v be_v give_v in_o this_o kind_n 5._o and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v charity_n out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o of_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o of_o faith_n unfeigned_a these_o be_v thing_n require_v in_o the_o law_n 12._o the_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o bring_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n have_v appear_v teach_v we_o that_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n we_o shall_v live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n the_o gospel_n and_o word_n of_o grace_n which_o christ_n have_v reveal_v to_o the_o world_n and_o confirm_v by_o his_o death_n teach_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o christ_n have_v establish_v the_o law_n for_o a_o rule_n by_o which_o his_o people_n be_v to_o act_v and_o walk_v as_o he_o which_o have_v call_v you_o be_v holy_a 16_o so_o be_v

of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o how_o happy_a shall_v thou_o be_v if_o find_v thyself_o in_o christ_n and_o find_v christ_n dwell_v in_o thy_o heart_n thou_o can_v assure_v thyself_o that_o thou_o be_v wash_v in_o his_o blood_n from_o all_o thy_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v cross_v all_o thy_o sin_n out_o of_o the_o debt_n book_n of_o god_n justice_n
