may_v just_o be_v who_o seem_v to_o make_v it_o all_o one_o with_o the_o old_a yet_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v afraid_a of_o jesus_n the_o only_a author_n preserver_n and_o redeemer_n of_o my_o life_n the_o only_a joy_n and_o blessing_n and_o comfort_n of_o my_o death_n you_o say_v i_o be_o not_o afraid_a of_o the_o covenant_n i_o know_v i_o be_o not_o afraid_a of_o jesus_n nor_o do_v i_o

real_o fulfil_v and_o the_o inheritance_n convey_v thereby_o be_v actual_o possess_v and_o the_o word_n that_o i_o quote_v import_v no_o less_o i_o be_o desirous_a to_o come_v to_o jesus_n the_o

old_a covenant_n the_o covenant_n of_o justice_n or_o of_o work_n for_o moses_n be_v the_o mediator_n of_o that_o at_o least_o as_o it_o be_v renew_v on_o mount_n sinai_n but_o of_o the_o new_a

a_o threefold_a cord_n twist_v with_o custom_n conscience_n and_o truth_n as_o with_o three_o twist_n which_o labour_v to_o pull_v down_o this_o your_o objection_n the_o custom_n of_o speech_n the_o

have_v make_v i_o some_o new_a work_n i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o real_a part_n of_o it_o whereby_o you_o seem_v very_o willing_a to_o make_v some_o new_a divinity_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o true_a it_o must_v be_v call_v new_a by_o that_o infallible_a rule_n id_fw-la verum_fw-la quod_fw-la primum_fw-la that_o be_v trust_v which_o be_v old_a as_o come_v immediate_o from_o the_o ancient_n of_o

bind_v cooperate_n with_o his_o grace_n to_o do_v very_o many_o thing_n ourselves_o for_o the_o obtain_n of_o the_o promise_a inheritance_n wherein_o if_o we_o fail_v we_o shall_v never_o attain_v thereto_o which_o seem_v to_o i_o a_o very_a strange_a assertion_n for_o so_o you_o have_v vent_v it_o and_o yet_o a_o more_o strange_a definition_n for_o so_o you_o seem_v to_o intend_v it_o the_o assertion_n be_v strange_a because_o it_o be_v authentical_a and_o yet_o withal_o ambiguous_a such_o as_o may_v be_v much_o admire_v but_o little_o approve_v for_o he_o that_o will_v speak_v positive_o ought_v not_o to_o speak_v doubtful_o as_o you_o be_v positive_a in_o denounce_v the_o irrecoverable_a loss_n of_o heaven_n but_o doubtful_a in_o declare_v by_o what_o mean_v we_o may_v prevent_v that_o loss_n you_o speak_v with_o authority_n enough_o to_o terrify_v we_o but_o not_o with_o perspicuity_n enough_o to_o instruct_v we_o you_o say_v plain_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v very_o many_o thing_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o the_o promise_a inheritance_n wherein_o if_o we_o fail_v we_o shall_v never_o attain_v thereto_o but_o you_o say_v not_o one_o word_n concern_v any_o of_o those_o thing_n wherein_o we_o be_v bind_v not_o to_o fail_v so_o you_o put_v our_o salvation_n upon_o unknown_a condition_n which_o be_v the_o way_n to_o fill_v our_o soul_n with_o perplexity_n instead_o of_o piety_n and_o since_o what_o be_v not_o know_v can_v be_v do_v you_o may_v also_o put_v our_o salvation_n upon_o impossible_a condition_n which_o be_v the_o way_n to_o turn_v our_o perplexity_n into_o desperation_n our_o desperation_n into_o damnation_n 8._o and_o i_o think_v this_o be_v enough_o to_o prove_v it_o a_o strange_a assertion_n for_o it_o do_v not_o explain_v but_o rather_o obscure_v the_o thing_n define_v as_o agree_v more_o with_o the_o old_a than_o with_o the_o new_a covenant_n for_o put_v moses_n his_o old_a testament_n instead_o of_o christ_n new_a testament_n and_o you_o shall_v not_o need_n change_v any_o one_o particle_n of_o the_o whole_a definition_n but_o it_o will_v all_o agree_v with_o the_o one_o as_o well_o as_o with_o the_o other_o and_o so_o it_o may_v go_v after_o this_o manner_n for_o in_o very_a deed_n moses_n his_o old_a testament_n be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o old_a conditional_a covenant_n with_o we_o by_o which_o we_o be_v bind_v cooperate_n with_o god_n grace_n to_o do_v very_o many_o thing_n ourselves_o for_o the_o obtain_n of_o the_o promise_a inheritance_n wherein_o if_o we_o fail_v we_o shall_v never_o attain_v thereto_o so_o that_o you_o have_v give_v we_o a_o definition_n that_o will_v fit_v the_o old_a covenant_n as_o well_o as_o the_o new_a and_o therefore_o true_o fit_a neither_o since_o it_o can_v fit_v both_o which_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o very_a strange_a definition_n confound_v that_o covenant_n it_o shall_v explain_v for_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v unlogical_a very_o strange_a to_o

be_v the_o salvation_n for_o s._n paul_n have_v tell_v we_o express_o that_o god_n will_v judge_v the_o world_n not_o by_o the_o law_n which_o will_v condemn_v the_o most_o innocent_a and_o the_o most_o righteous_a since_o the_o loss_n of_o our_o first_o innocen'cy_n and_o righteousness_n but_o by_o the_o gospel_n which_o will_v condemn_v only_o the_o unrepent_v and_o unbelieve_a sinner_n in_o

will_v acquit_v he_o because_o it_o have_v the_o same_o precept_n of_o innocency_n with_o the_o moral_a law_n according_a to_o which_o precept_n the_o last_o judgement_n will_v be_v give_v and_o pronounce_v only_o it_o will_v accept_v of_o his_o innocency_n by_o faith_n and_o repentance_n whereas_o the_o law_n will_v accept_v only_o of_o his_o innocency_n by_o perfect_a obedience_n the_o judgement_n be_v not_o like_a to_o be_v the_o less_o righteous_a for_o be_v according_a to_o the_o gospel_n but_o the_o more_o merciful_a because_o though_o jesus_n christ_n in_o judge_v we_o will_v proceed_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o proceed_v according_a to_o the_o covenant_n of_o

as_o a_o rule_n of_o righteousness_n do_v this_o and_o as_o a_o covenant_n of_o life_n do_v this_o and_o live_v as_o
covenant_n be_v there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o covenanter_n therefore_o if_o i_o will_v have_v the_o full_a comfort_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n overcome_v for_o i_o the_o sharpness_n of_o death_n and_o open_v to_o i_o the_o gate_n of_o everlasting_a life_n and_o rescue_v i_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n the_o terror_n of_o hell_n and_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o devil_n i_o must_v go_v to_o the_o testament_n which_o tell_v i_o of_o christ_n death_n not_o to_o the_o covenant_n which_o threaten_v my_o own_o by_o show_v i_o the_o multiply_a offence_n of_o my_o sinful_a life_n and_o in_o truth_n he_o that_o will_v deny_v this_o to_o be_v the_o proper_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n testament_n must_v also_o deny_v st._n paul_n argument_n which_o here_o depend_v whole_o upon_o the_o proper_a signification_n of_o that_o word_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n say_v the_o apostle_n he_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o by_o mean_n of_o death_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o transgression_n that_o be_v under_o the_o first_o testament_n they_o which_o be_v call_v may_v receive_v the_o promise_n of_o eternal_a

the_o strength_n of_o his_o argument_n in_o the_o word_n testament_n which_o by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n death_n give_v we_o redemption_n from_o transgression_n and_o admission_n to_o a_o eternal_a inheritance_n so_o that_o we_o have_v need_n go_v to_o the_o testament_n not_o to_o the_o covenant_n both_o for_o our_o redemption_n and_o for_o our_o inheritance_n for_o the_o transgression_n which_o be_v under_o the_o old_a covenant_n that_o of_o work_n here_o call_v the_o first_o testament_n because_o as_o it_o be_v repeat_v by_o moses_n it_o be_v not_o dedicate_v without_o blood_n v_o 18_o 19_o can_v not_o be_v expiate_v but_o by_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v under_o the_o new_a testament_n wherefore_o the_o covenant_n put_v we_o in_o fear_n of_o captivity_n and_o death_n and_o it_o be_v only_o the_o testament_n give_v we_o hope_n of_o liberty_n and_o life_n and_o according_o the_o apostle_n use_v the_o word_n testament_n of_o purpose_n to_o proclaim_v the_o abundant_a grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n that_o after_o our_o fall_n he_o be_v please_v to_o give_v we_o not_o a_o covenant_n but_o a_o testament_n for_o a_o covenant_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o strict_a justice_n have_v mutual_a condition_n between_o both_o party_n which_o if_o either_o fail_v the_o agreement_n be_v of_o none_o effect_n but_o a_o testament_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o more_o grace_n as_o be_v the_o conveyance_n of_o a_o inheritance_n without_o any_o harsh_a condition_n impose_v upon_o the_o heir_n and_o before_o any_o oblige_a office_n perform_v by_o they_o and_o such_o be_v the_o act_n of_o god_n to_o we_o sinful_a man_n when_o we_o have_v disable_v ourselves_o to_o perform_v the_o condition_n of_o his_o covenant_n it_o be_v a_o testament_n to_o instate_v we_o in_o the_o right_n of_o salvation_n by_o the_o death_n of_o our_o redeemer_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n set_v it_o forth_o with_o the_o adjunct_n and_o property_n not_o of_o a_o covenant_n but_o of_o a_o testament_n for_o the_o proper_a adjunct_n of_o a_o covenant_n be_v not_o blood_n and_o the_o death_n of_o the_o covenant-maker_n which_o two_o alone_o be_v here_o mention_v since_o a_o covenant_n be_v rather_o void_v than_o establish_v by_o death_n but_o both_o these_o be_v the_o proper_a adjunct_n of_o a_o testament_n which_o though_o make_v before_o the_o death_n of_o the_o testator_n yet_o be_v not_o establish_v till_o after_o it_o wherefore_o since_o our_o bless_a saviour_n do_v presignifie_v and_o promise_v his_o own_o death_n and_o the_o effusion_n of_o his_o own_o blood_n by_o typical_a sacrifice_n till_o he_o verify_v that_o promise_n by_o the_o real_a sacrifice_n of_o himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o this_o place_n think_v fit_a to_o make_v choice_n of_o the_o word_n testament_n whereby_o to_o express_v this_o act_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n and_o favour_n towards_o we_o and_o sure_o no_o minister_n of_o god_n church_n may_v just_o be_v question_v for_o speak_v after_o the_o dialect_n of_o god_n spirit_n 5._o for_o what_o shall_v a_o sinful_a soul_n do_v but_o gasp_v after_o god_n free_a grace_n acknowledge_v it_o to_o be_v grace_n because_o she_o be_v ●…worthy_a and_o to_o be_v free_a grace_n that_o she_o may_v not_o be_v uncapable_a of_o it_o for_o as_o she_o may_v easy_o perish_v by_o oppose_v it_o so_o she_o must_v necessary_o perish_v by_o not_o obtain_v it_o and_o the_o desire_n of_o oppose_a grace_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o great_a impediment_n in_o obtain_v grace_n for_o god_n that_o give_v grace_n above_o our_o desert_n will_v not_o give_v it_o against_o our_o desire_n since_o it_o be_v express_o say_v that_o god_n resist_v the_o proud_a and_o therefore_o most_o resist_v those_o that_o be_v most_o proud_a even_o the_o proud_a in_o spirit_n who_o dare_v capitulate_v with_o his_o justice_n but_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a and_o therefore_o most_o grace_n to_o those_o who_o be_v most_o

to_o make_v i_o say_v and_o be_v enough_o to_o justify_v my_o say_n i_o be_o afraid_a of_o the_o covenant_n and_o fly_v to_o the_o testament_n for_o by_o the_o covenant_n i_o can_v look_v only_o for_o
