the_o apostle_n rom._n 10._o 6._o appli_v to_o the_o gospel_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o law_n as_o in_o itself_o consider_v without_o the_o gospel_n or_o as_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n before_o the_o fall_v the_o law_n be_v give_v by_o god_n as_o lord_n of_o his_o creature_n but_o since_o the_o fall_v it_o have_v be_v the_o law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n which_o make_v it_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n 1._o because_o christ_n in_o his_o kingdom_n be_v so_o our_o lord_n as_o he_o be_v also_o our_o head_n and_o we_o the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n and_o quicken_v by_o his_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o part_v of_o our_o duty_n therein_o require_v be_v that_o it_o be_v do_v by_o his_o strength_n 11._o joh._n 15._o 5._o philip._n 1._o 11._o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n the_o law_n be_v do_v this_o and_o live_v but_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n it_o be_v do_v this_o in_o the_o strength_n of_o christ_n and_o live_v 2._o because_o our_o state_n and_o condition_n as_o subject_n of_o his_o kingdom_n depend_v not_o upon_o our_o keep_v the_o law_n but_o upon_o free_a grace_n in_o christ_n by_o faith_n although_o our_o comfort_n in_o that_o kingdom_n and_o state_n be_v much_o according_a as_o we_o keep_v or_o break_v that_o law_n joh._n 14._o 21._o he_o that_o have_v my_o commandment_n say_v christ_n and_o keep_v they_o he_o it_o be_v that_o love_v i_o &_o he_o shall_v be_v love_v of_o my_o father_n and_o i_o will_v love_v he_o and_o will_v manifest_v myself_o to_o he_o so_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v those_o word_n when_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v free_a from_o and_o dead_a to_o the_o law_n and_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n that_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o our_o state_n and_o condition_n or_o of_o the_o justify_n of_o our_o person_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n do_v this_o and_o live_v be_v the_o covenant_n in_o respect_n of_o state_n therefore_o adam_n have_v no_o soon_o sin_v but_o he_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o eternal_a death_n but_o to_o we_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o comfort_n in_o that_o state_n wherein_o we_o be_v as_o subject_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o member_n of_o his_o body_n therefore_o although_o we_o be_v punish_v for_o sin_n yet_o not_o with_o eternal_a death_n but_o with_o temporal_a punishment_n whether_o corporal_a or_o spiritual_a and_o that_o out_o of_o love_n to_o do_v we_o good_a as_o from_o a_o father_n our_o state_n in_o christ_n continue_v still_o therefore_o although_o we_o be_v bind_v by_o this_o law_n as_o subject_n of_o his_o kingdom_n yet_o we_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o legal_a state_n as_o under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n 3._o because_o however_o we_o be_v punish_v by_o christ_n for_o sin_n yet_o the_o matter_n be_v whole_o take_v up_o by_o he_o in_o his_o kingdom_n and_o we_o be_v not_o carry_v out_o thence_o to_o be_v punish_v or_o throw_v to_o hell_n therefore_o be_v we_o free_a from_o the_o law_n as_o to_o the_o eternal_a curse_n 4._o in_o that_o when_o he_o punish_v for_o sin_n he_o proceed_v therein_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o his_o kingdom_n which_o be_v the_o justice_n of_o a_o father_n which_o oblige_v he_o in_o punish_v to_o aim_v not_o only_o at_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n but_o also_o at_o the_o good_a of_o the_o person_n punish_v which_o end_n if_o he_o can_v attain_v by_o spare_v he_o be_v engage_v even_o in_o justice_n and_o that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o righteous_a father_n to_o spare_v or_o if_o a_o lesser_a affliction_n will_v do_v it_o to_o take_v a_o less_o and_o although_o sometime_o when_o he_o see_v cause_n he_o will_v not_o spare_v and_o when_o a_o lesser_a affliction_n will_v not_o do_v the_o work_n he_o take_v a_o great_a and_o come_v with_o seven_o time_n more_o 26._o levit._fw-la 26._o yet_o never_o to_o punish_v any_o of_o his_o child_n according_a to_o the_o full_a desert_n of_o any_o sin_n he_o have_v not_o deal_v with_o we_o after_o our_o sin_n nor_o reward_v we_o according_a to_o our_o iniquity_n psal_n 103._o 10._o now_o this_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n for_o there_o be_v no_o such_o liberty_n take_v there_o be_v no_o spare_v because_o the_o end_n of_o punishment_n therein_o be_v not_o the_o good_a of_o the_o person_n punish_v but_o only_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o although_o one_o ingredient_n in_o the_o general_a nature_n of_o the_o law_n both_o before_o and_o since_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o command_n under_o penalty_n yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o either_o they_o be_v or_o that_o we_o now_o be_v under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n i_o have_v make_v so_o large_a a_o digression_n upon_o this_o subject_n because_o some_o do_v insist_v so_o much_o upon_o this_o point_n against_o infant-baptisme_n allege_v that_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v so_o silent_a in_o it_o for_o by_o that_o which_o have_v be_v say_v of_o the_o general_a nature_n of_o the_o law_n to_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n under_o both_o testament_n we_o see_v clear_o the_o reason_n of_o these_o two_o thing_n first_o how_o god_n can_v make_v the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o be_v the_o season_n wherein_o he_o will_v instruct_v his_o people_n in_o his_o law_n and_o that_o for_o all_o age_n afterward_o according_a to_o that_o of_o our_o saviour_n the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n be_v until_o john_n and_o since_o that_o time_n the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v preach_v imply_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n be_v unfolding_a until_o then_o second_o why_o the_o lord_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o apostle_n of_o our_o profession_n and_o be_v faithful_a to_o he_o that_o appoint_v he_o as_o moses_n also_o be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n 1._o heb._n 3._o 1._o that_o be_v in_o all_o the_o service_n of_o it_o shall_v speak_v so_o little_a in_o his_o new_a testament_n concern_v the_o law_n which_o be_v the_o rule_n which_o he_o have_v set_v for_o the_o service_n of_o that_o his_o house_n namely_o because_o he_o can_v look_v upon_o that_o for_o the_o great_a part_n to_o be_v do_v already_o and_o shall_v he_o have_v be_v more_o particular_a therein_o he_o have_v take_v his_o people_n off_o from_o the_o study_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o he_o will_v not_o do_v since_o it_o be_v write_v for_o our_o learning_n yea_o he_o purposely_o avoyd_v it_o that_o he_o may_v oblige_v his_o people_n to_o that_o study_n his_o faithfulness_n in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n do_v bespeak_v it_o of_o he_o therefore_o whoever_o shall_v confine_v himself_o only_o to_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o find_v out_o the_o law_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o service_n he_o shall_v never_o find_v it_o not_o only_o as_o to_o infant-baptisme_n but_o also_o to_o all_o

for_o that_o we_o must_v go_v to_o the_o old_a and_o there_o we_o find_v that_o a_o temple_n or_o a_o house_n of_o god_n must_v be_v separate_v from_o that_o which_o be_v common_a and_o make_v
