the_o freeness_n of_o god_n act_n in_o it_o a_o four_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o joint_a design_n that_o these_o dissent_v christian_n and_o that_o in_o this_o very_a business_n carry_v on_o with_o those_o who_o spirit_n be_v more_o clear_a in_o the_o thing_n viz._n the_o glory_n of_o god_n indeed_o if_o they_o be_v such_o base_a profane_a wretch_n as_o keep_v up_o these_o ceremony_n out_o of_o a_o superstitious_a humour_n holy_a day_n mere_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v in_o and_o rise_v up_o to_o play_v in_o to_o be_v day_n of_o prophannesse_n etc._n etc._n or_o if_o they_o keep_v up_o these_o mere_o to_o disturb_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n or_o to_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n than_o it_o be_v something_o but_o be_v the_o case_n be_v so_o that_o they_o be_v such_o person_n as_o true_o aim_v at_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o this_o action_n and_o dissent_v because_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o full_o convince_v that_o they_o be_v free_v from_o these_o ceremony_n and_o think_v they_o shall_v dishonour_v god_n in_o disobey_v his_o command_n if_o they_o shall_v not_o bear_v with_o they_o yea_o may_n some_o say_v but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v this_o first_o the_o apostle_n prove_v it_o 1._o from_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o observation_n of_o these_o day_n and_o eat_v these_o meat_n 1._o they_o observe_v they_o to_o the_o lord_n they_o eat_v to_o the_o lord_n giving_z god_n thanks_o they_o do_v not_o bare_o observe_v the_o ceremony_n but_o with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o holiness_n that_o the_o shell_n and_o the_o kernel_n go_v together_o second_o he_o prove_v it_o from_o the_o general_a scope_n and_o aim_v of_o every_o true_a christian_a both_o in_o his_o life_n and_o death_n for_o none_o of_o we_o live_v to_o himself_o etc._n etc._n they_o be_v some_o of_o we_o say_v the_o apostle_n true_a believer_n in_o who_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n dwell_v now_o none_o of_o we_o live_v to_o himself_o and_o no_o man_n die_v to_o

thus_o i_o have_v bring_v you_o to_o my_o text_n which_o be_v a_o short_a account_n of_o a_o christian_n pilgrimage_n the_o life_n and_o death_n of_o a_o saint_n in_o it_o consider_v first_o the_o

die_v to_o himself_o but_o if_o he_o live_v he_o live_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o if_o he_o die_v he_o die_v to_o the_o lord_n second_o here_o be_v a_o inference_n from_o the_o doctrine_n a_o

be_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o doctrine_n why_o we_o shall_v in_o our_o life_n live_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o our_o death_n die_v unto_o the_o lord_n because_o in_o life_n and_o death_n we_o be_v the_o lord_n there_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n difficult_a in_o the_o word_n that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v open_v about_o they_o i_o shall_v open_v in_o the_o doctrine_n and_o that_o i_o may_v contract_v all_o as_o short_a as_o may_v be_v i_o shall_v sum_n up_o both_o the_o verse_n in_o this_o one_o proposition_n of_o doctrine_n doct._n that_o all_o believer_n who_o while_o they_o live_v live_v not_o to_o themselves_o and_o if_o they_o die_v die_v not_o to_o themselves_o but_o while_o they_o live_v they_o live_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o when_o they_o die_v they_o die_v to_o the_o lord_n whether_o they_o live_v or_o die_v be_v the_o lord_n and_o because_o in_o life_n or_o death_n they_o be_v the_o lord_n it_o be_v their_o duty_n not_o to_o live_v nor_o die_v to_o themselves_o but_o to_o live_v and_o die_v to_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v large_a but_o easy_a to_o be_v remember_v because_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n for_o my_o better_a proceed_v in_o the_o handle_n of_o

the_o believer_n in_o his_o life_n be_v the_o lord_n 2._o that_o because_o of_o it_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o live_v to_o himself_o but_o to_o the_o lord_n 3._o that_o when_o he_o die_v he_o die_v
