because_o through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n it_o be_v transitory_a to_o all_o believer_n 4._o last_o it_o be_v call_v a_o body_n because_o as_o our_o body_n be_v make_v up_o of_o many_o integral_n and_o consist_v of_o several_a member_n by_o which_o they_o act_n and_o exercise_v several_a function_n so_o also_o original_a corruption_n be_v one_o thing_n consist_v of_o many_o particular_a sin_n as_o so_o many_o integrall_a part_n or_o several_a member_n whereby_o it_o put_v forth_o itself_o in_o several_a operation_n for_o these_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n original_a corruption_n be_v call_v a_o body_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o body_n and_o now_o it_o be_v more_o easy_a to_o understand_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n be_v life_n because_o of_o righteousness_n for_o if_o by_o the_o body_n be_v mean_v original_a corruption_n then_o by_o the_o spirit_n must_v be_v mean_v original_a righteousness_n that_o which_o be_v elsewhere_o in_o the_o scripture_n call_v the_o divine_a nature_n or_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n or_o grace_n or_o holiness_n or_o the_o like_a original_a holiness_n or_o righteousness_n be_v that_o which_o i_o take_v it_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n it_o be_v so_o call_v john_n 3.6_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v spirit_n and_o so_o in_o many_o other_o place_n now_o this_o same_o habit_n of_o holiness_n be_v call_v the_o spirit_n 1._o to_o show_v the_o excellency_n of_o it_o that_o as_o a_o spirit_n be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n far_o above_o all_o bodily_a substance_n so_o be_v holiness_n the_o excellent_a of_o god_n creature_n for_o grace_n be_v also_o a_o creature_n as_o other_o thing_n 2._o to_o show_v the_o durableness_n of_o it_o though_o sin_n shall_v die_v in_o the_o saint_n and_o be_v utter_o destroy_v yet_o grace_n shall_v never_o be_v destroy_v stroy_v nor_o cease_v in_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n 3._o it_o be_v call_v the_o spirit_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o object_n of_o it_o for_o the_o object_n of_o this_o grace_n be_v spiritual_a thing_n 4._o in_o regard_n of_o the_o author_n of_o it_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n that_o beget_v and_o work_v it_o in_o people_n therefore_o as_o the_o child_n bear_v the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n so_o do_v this_o of_o the_o spirit_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o sin_n namely_o the_o transgression_n of_o god_n law_n either_o in_o omission_n or_o commission_n what_o by_o righteousness_n the_o observation_n of_o god_n law_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o first_o and_o second_o table_n what_o by_o the_o body_n original_a corruption_n what_o by_o the_o spirit_n the_o habit_n of_o holiness_n or_o original_a righteousness_n now_o than_o the_o whole_a amount_v to_o this_o that_o if_o so_o be_v the_o lord_n christ_n be_v in_o people_n than_o there_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n in_o they_o and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n thus_o much_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o word_n let_v they_o be_v take_v any_o way_n which_o way_n soever_o expositor_n can_v carry_v they_o this_o must_v be_v the_o sense_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o we_o need_v not_o spend_v further_a time_n in_o the_o exposition_n but_o will_v fall_v direct_o upon_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v this_o in_o whosoever_o christ_n be_v there_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n the_o point_n be_v very_o evident_a and_o express_a in_o the_o text_n be_v the_o main_a matter_n scope_n and_o drift_n thereof_o as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n for_o the_o prove_v of_o it_o not_o to_o trouble_v you_o with_o many_o other_o scripture_n you_o may_v consider_v these_o thing_n first_o the_o end_n and_o the_o office_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o apostle_n paul_n express_v tit._n 2.14_o christ_n give_v himself_o for_o we_o that_o he_o may_v redeem_v we_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o purify_v unto_o himself_o a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n the_o main_a end_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o redemption_n of_o a_o people_n from_o all_o iniquity_n which_o impli_v not_o only_o the_o removal_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o destroy_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n therefore_o 1_o joh._n 3.8_o it_o be_v say_v that_o for_o this_o purpose_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n not_o only_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o power_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n now_o therefore_o for_o this_o purpose_n say_v the_o text_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v that_o he_o may_v free_v we_o from_o the_o guilt_n yea_o and_o from_o the_o dominion_n and_o life_n and_o power_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v one_o end_n another_o end_n of_o christ_n give_v himself_n be_v to_o purify_v we_o therefore_o he_o must_v put_v sin_n to_o death_n in_o we_o for_o to_o purify_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o purge_v out_o corruption_n as_o the_o fire_n do_v work_v the_o dross_n out_o that_o be_v in_o the_o gold_n again_o to_o purify_v we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n where_o there_o be_v a_o zealousnesse_n of_o good_a work_n there_o must_v be_v a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n so_o that_o by_o that_o place_n you_o plain_o see_v that_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o put_n of_o sin_n to_o death_n and_o bring_v in_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n moreover_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v the_o second_o adam_n and_o he_o be_v so_o call_v 1_o cor._n 15.45_o and_o to_o speak_v the_o truth_n the_o first_o adam_n be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v rom._n 5.14_o who_o be_v the_o figure_n or_o type_n of_o he_o that_o be_v to_o come_v for_o not_o only_o the_o ceremony_n among_o the_o jew_n be_v type_n of_o christ_n but_o even_o adam_n in_o his_o fall_n in_o his_o undo_n the_o world_n in_o his_o overthrow_v of_o mankind_n be_v a_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o christ_n also_o only_o other_o type_n do_v figure_n out_o christ_n by_o way_n of_o similitude_n but_o adam_n by_o way_n of_o dissimilitude_n and_o contrariety_n for_o look_v what_o adam_n do_v the_o contrary_a to_o that_o christ_n be_v to_o do_v now_o adam_n do_v cause_n to_o all_o in_o who_o he_o be_v as_o the_o parent_n be_v in_o the_o child_n a_o death_n of_o righteousness_n and_o a_o life_n of_o sin_n therefore_o the_o contrary_a the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v work_v in_o all_o those_o in_o who_o he_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n second_o this_o point_n be_v also_o plain_a from_o the_o consideration_n of_o those_o respect_n in_o which_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o people_n those_o be_v as_o you_o hear_v before_o first_o in_o regard_n of_o his_o spirit_n second_o in_o regard_n of_o his_o virtue_n influence_n and_o sap_n that_o be_v in_o they_o now_o where_o ever_o these_o be_v there_o must_v be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n for_o the_o former_a even_o as_o fire_n do_v purge_v away_o dross_n and_o rust_n so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v out_o corruption_n and_o put_v sin_n to_o death_n where_o ever_o he_o come_v and_o as_o light_n expel_v darkness_n even_o so_o do_v he_o expel_v unrighteousness_n and_o sin_n because_o he_o be_v the_o holy_a spirit_n again_o for_o the_o virtue_n and_o life_n of_o christ_n you_o know_v it_o be_v the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n therefore_o wherever_o this_o be_v there_o must_v be_v a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n in_o that_o man_n last_o of_o all_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o that_o communion_n with_o christ_n and_o conformity_n to_o he_o that_o all_o those_o must_v have_v which_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o they_o wherein_o they_o must_v have_v a_o communion_n with_o and_o a_o conformity_n to_o christ_n saint_n paul_n show_v rom._n 6._o from_o the_o three_o verse_n to_o the_o twelve_o in_o the_o three_o verse_n he_o lay_v down_o that_o union_n by_o faith_n which_o all_o justify_v person_n have_v with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o from_o this_o he_o infer_v a_o communion_n with_o he_o and_o a_o conformity_n unto_o he_o but_o in_o what_o in_o his_o death_n and_o in_o his_o resurrection_n if_o we_o have_v be_v plant_v together_o say_v he_o v._o 5._o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n mark_v not_o in_o the_o same_o death_n but_o in_o the_o likeness_n thereof_o we_o shall_v be_v also_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o resurrection_n where_o the_o apostle_n declare_v that_o like_o as_o there_o be_v in_o christ_n a_o bodily_a death_n and_o a_o bodily_a resurrection_n so_o there_o be_v in_o
thou_o find_v that_o god_n command_v thou_o much_o and_o thou_o do_v little_a but_o yet_o thou_o be_v in_o a_o condition_n wherein_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v so_o thou_o will_v use_v the_o mean_n

give_v that_o commandment_n phil_n 4._o rejoice_v always_o in_o the_o lord_n and_o again_o i_o say_v rejoice_v he_o do_v not_o bid_v they_o rejoice_v in_o riches_n in_o friend_n in_o honour_n in_o

he_o leave_v you_o that_o he_o have_v leave_v you_o under_o the_o power_n of_o many_o sin_n subject_a to_o many_o fail_n unable_a to_o perfect_a obedience_n do_v you_o think_v i_o say_v again_o that_o

and_o yet_o he_o bid_v you_o to_o rejoice_v why_o so_o there_o be_v ground_n enough_o for_o your_o rejoice_n because_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n and_o if_o under_o
