detein_v a_o man_n in_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o law_n make_v he_o subject_a unto_o death_n on_o the_o contrary_n he_o call_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n &_o death_n sin_n what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n the_o dominion_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o tyranny_n of_o death_n which_o proceed_v thence_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v as_o it_o be_v place_v in_o the_o midst_n which_o law_n teach_v righteousness_n but_o give_v it_o not_o yea_o rather_o it_o bind_v we_o in_o strong_a bond_n unto_o the_o servitude_n of_o sin_n &_o death_n therefore_o the_o meaning_n be_v where_o as_o the_o law_n of_o god_n condemn_v man_n that_o come_v to_o pass_v because_o so_o long_o as_o they_o abide_v under_o the_o bond_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v press_v with_o the_o bondage_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o be_v guilty_a of_o death_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n while_o by_o correct_v the_o inordinat_a lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n objection_n objection_n he_o abolish_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n in_o we_o do_v also_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o giltines_n of_o death_n if_o any_o shall_v object_v that_o then_o the_o forgiveness_n whereby_o our_o offence_n be_v bury_v answer_n answer_n do_v depend_v upon_o regeneration_n the_o answer_n be_v easy_a namely_o that_o the_o cause_n be_v not_o here_o set_v down_o of_o paul_n but_o the_o manner_n only_o be_v deliver_v whereby_o we_o be_v loose_v from_o giltinesse_n and_o paul_n deni_v we_o to_o obtain_v that_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n but_o while_o we_o be_v renew_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n we_o be_v also_o justify_v by_o free_a forgiveness_n that_o the_o curse_n of_o sin_n may_v no_o more_o lie_v upon_o us._n this_o sentence_n therefore_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o paul_n have_v say_v the_o grace_n of_o regeneration_n be_v never_o separate_v trom_n the_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n i_o dare_v not_o take_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n &_o death_n with_o some_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n because_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o hard_a speech_n for_o although_o by_o increase_a sin_n it_o beget_v death_n yet_o paul_n do_v purposely_o above_o withdraw_v from_o this_o despite_n or_o roughness_n of_o speech_n although_o nothing_o the_o more_o i_o consent_v to_o their_o opinion_n who_o understand_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o concupiscence_n of_o the_o flesh_n as_o though_o paul_n say_v he_o have_v conquer_v it_o for_o short_o after_o it_o shall_v as_o i_o hope_v sufficient_o appear_v that_o he_o speak_v of_o free_a forgiveness_n which_o do_v bring_v unto_o we_o a_o perfect_a peace_n with_o god_n i_o have_v rather_o keep_v the_o name_n of_o law_n then_o with_o erasmus_n to_o translate_v it_o right_n or_o power_n because_o paul_n do_v not_o without_o cause_n allude_v unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n 3_o for_o that_o which_o be_v impossible_a to_o the_o law_n now_o follow_v the_o polish_n and_o set_v forth_o of_o the_o confirmation_n namely_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v by_o his_o free_a mercy_n justify_v we_o in_o christ_n which_o thing_n be_v impossible_a for_o the_o law_n but_o because_o this_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a sentence_n let_v we_o examine_v every_o part_n thereof_o that_o he_o intreat_v here_o of_o free_a justification_n or_o of_o remission_n whereby_o god_n reconcile_v we_o to_o himself_o faith_n the_o doctrine_n of_o remission_n &_o free_a mercy_n be_v restrain_v unto_o those_o who_o join_v repentance_n unto_o faith_n it_o may_v be_v gather_v by_o that_o last_o clause_n where_o he_o add_v who_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n for_o if_o paul_n go_v about_o to_o teach_v how_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o regeneration_n we_o be_v instruct_v or_o furnish_v to_o conquer_v sin_n to_o what_o end_n be_v this_o addition_n but_o it_o be_v very_o expedient_a that_o after_o he_o have_v promise_v free_a remission_n unto_o the_o faithful_a than_o this_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v restrain_v unto_o those_o who_o join_v repentance_n unto_o faith_n and_o abuse_v not_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n unto_o the_o licenciousnes_n of_o the_o flesh_n secondary_o here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v the_o render_n of_o the_o cause_n for_o the_o apostle_n show_v how_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n do_v absolve_v we_o from_o giltines_n now_o concern_v the_o word_n impossible_a to_o the_o law_n out_o of_o question_n be_v take_v for_o a_o defect_n or_o impotency_n as_o though_o it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v a_o remedy_n find_v of_o god_n whereby_o the_o impossibility_n of_o the_o law_n be_v take_v away_o as_o for_o the_o particle_n en_fw-fr o_fw-fr which_o erasmus_n have_v turn_v that_o part_n wherein_o because_o i_o think_v it_o to_o be_v causal_n i_o choose_v rather_o to_o translate_v it_o because_o and_o albeit_o perhaps_o you_o shall_v not_o find_v such_o a_o phrase_n of_o speech_n with_o good_a author_n of_o the_o greek_a tongue_n yet_o because_o the_o apostle_n do_v every_o where_o use_n hebrew_n phrase_n this_o interpretation_n ought_v not_o to_o seem_v hard_o certain_o the_o sound_a reader_n will_v grant_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o defect_n be_v express_v here_o as_o we_o shall_v declare_v again_o a_o little_a after_o now_o while_o erasmus_n put_v down_o of_o himself_o the_o principal_a verb_n in_o my_o judgement_n the_o text_n do_v run_v very_o well_o o-otherwise_a the_o conjunction_n kai_n and_o have_v deceive_v erasmus_n that_o he_o shall_v insert_v or_o thrust_v in_o the_o verb_n praestitit_fw-la that_o be_v he_o have_v perform_v but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v put_v for_o amplification_n sake_n except_o any_o perhaps_o like_o the_o conjecture_n of_o the_o greek_a glosser_n better_o who_o join_v this_o member_n and_o of_o sin_n to_o that_o go_v before_o namely_o god_n send_v his_o son_n in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n &_o for_o sin_n howbeit_o i_o have_v follow_v that_o which_o i_o have_v think_v to_o be_v the_o natural_a sense_n of_o paul_n now_o i_o come_v unto_o the_o thing_n itself_o paul_n affirm_v plain_o that_o our_o sin_n be_v therefore_o do_v away_o by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n because_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o the_o law_n to_o make_v we_o righteous_a whereupon_o it_o follow_v there_o be_v more_o command_v in_o the_o law_n than_o we_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v because_o if_o we_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v the_o law_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o seek_v for_o remedy_n else_o where_o wherefore_o it_o be_v absurd_a that_o man_n strength_n shall_v be_v measure_v by_o the_o precept_n of_o the_o law_n as_o though_o god_n in_o require_v that_o be_v just_a have_v regard_v what_o and_o how_o great_a our_o strengthe_n be_v because_o it_o be_v weak_a lest_o any_o shall_v think_v the_o law_n be_v charge_v unreverent_o with_o weakness_n or_o shall_v restrain_v this_o unto_o ceremony_n justify_v why_o the_o law_n can_v justify_v paul_n have_v precise_o express_v that_o that_o defect_n be_v not_o through_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o law_n but_o through_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o flesh_n for_o we_o must_v confess_v if_o any_o do_v absolute_o satisfy_v the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o be_v righteous_a before_o god_n so_o then_o he_o deni_v not_o the_o law_n to_o be_v able_a to_o justify_v we_o in_o respect_n of_o doctrine_n as_o which_o contain_v the_o perfect_a rule_n of_o righteousness_n but_o because_o our_o flesh_n do_v not_o compass_v that_o righteousness_n the_o whole_a strength_n of_o the_o law_n fall_v or_o vanish_v away_o so_o their_o error_n or_o rather_o dotage_n be_v refute_v who_o think_v the_o power_n of_o iustifi_v be_v take_v away_o only_o from_o ceremony_n when_o paul_n plain_o put_v the_o fault_n in_o we_o declare_v that_o he_o do_v find_v no_o fault_n in_o the_o doctrine_n furthermore_o understand_v the_o infirmity_n or_o weakness_n of_o the_o law_n as_o the_o apostle_n be_v wont_a to_o use_v the_o word_n astheneias_fw-la not_o only_o for_o a_o little_a weakness_n but_o for_o impotency_n that_o he_o may_v signify_v how_o the_o law_n have_v no_o force_n at_o all_o to_o justify_v thou_o see_v then_o we_o be_v utter_o exclude_v from_o the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n and_o therefore_o must_v flee_v unto_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n because_o there_o can_v be_v none_o in_o ourselves_o which_o thing_n be_v chief_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v for_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n except_o first_o we_o know_v assure_o that_o we_o have_v no_o righteousness_n of_o our_o own_o the_o name_n flesh_n be_v put_v always_o in_o the_o same_o signification_n namely_o for_o ourselves_o therefore_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n make_v the_o law_n of_o god_n unprofitable_a to_o we_o because_o while_o it_o show_v the_o way_n of_o life_n it_o do_v not_o reduce_v we_o back_o son_n how_o god_n have_v

prayer_n spirit_n a_o twofold_a spirit_n except_o it_o assure_v we_o of_o free_a remission_n and_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v that_o rather_o set_v out_o that_o matter_n he_o set_v down_o a_o twofold_a spirit_n one_o he_o call_v the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n which_o we_o may_v conceive_v by_o the_o law●_n the_o other_o of_o adoption_n which_o be_v by_o the_o gospel_n he_o say_v that_o be_v

as_o thou_o see_v make_v more_o manifest_a the_o author_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n when_o he_o say_v we_o be_v not_o come_v unto_o the_o mount_n sinai_n where_o all_o thing_n be_v so_o terrible_a that_o the_o people_n be_v overthrow_v as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o present_a sentence_n of_o death_n do_v pray_v they_o may_v not_o be_v speak_v unto_o yea_o moses_n himself_o confess_v he_o be_v afraid_a but_o we_o be_v come_v unto_o zion_n the_o hill_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o city_n the_o celestial_a jerusalem_n where_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n jesus_n by_o the_o adverbe_n again_o we_o gather_v that_o the_o law_n be_v here_o compare_v with_o the_o gospel_n because_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o his_o come_n bring_v unto_o we_o this_o inestimable_a benefit_n that_o the_o servile_a condition_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v no_o more_o bind_v us._n yet_o thou_o may_v not_o gather_v hereby_o either_o that_o none_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n or_o that_o who_o so_o receive_v the_o law_n be_v servant_n and_o not_o son_n for_o he_o do_v rather_o compare_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o law_n with_o the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o person_n with_o person_n in_o deed_n i_o confess_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v admonish_v here_o how_o much_o more_o liberal_o god_n have_v now_o deal_v with_o they_o than_o he_o do_v in_o old_a time_n with_o the_o father_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n yet_o he_o respect_v the_o external_a dispensation_n in_o respect_n whereof_o only_o we_o excel_v because_o howesoever_o the_o say_v of_o abraham_n moses_n and_o david_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o we_o yet_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n in_o a_o manner_n keep_v they_o under_o a_o schoolmistress_n they_o be_v not_o yet_o come_v unto_o that_o liberty_n which_o be_v open_v unto_o us._n and_o also_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o i_o have_v purposely_o because_o of_o false_a apostle_n put_v a_o antithesis_fw-la or_o contrariety_n between_o the_o literal_a disciple_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o faithful_a who_o christ_n the_o heavenly_a master_n do_v not_o only_o speak_v unto_o with_o sound_n of_o mouth_n but_o also_o inwardly_o do_v teach_v effectual_o by_o his_o spirit_n and_o although_o the_o covenaunt_n of_o grace_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n yet_o he_o remove_v it_o thence_o because_o oppose_v the_o gospel_n he_o consider_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o law_n namely_o to_o bid_v and_o forbid_v and_o by_o the_o denounce_v of_o death_n to_o bridle_v sinner_n and_o so_o he_o give_v unto_o the_o law_n law_n what_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o law_n that_o quality_n whereby_o it_o differ_v from_o the_o gospel_n or_o if_o any_o have_v rather_o he_o propound_v the_o bare_a law_n as_o god_n therein_o covenant_v with_o we_o in_o respect_n of_o work_n thus_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o think_v of_o the_o person_n among_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n when_o the_o law_n be_v publish_v &_o also_o after_o it_o be_v publish_v the_o godly_a be_v illuminate_v with_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n &_o therefore_o the_o hope_n of_o eternal_a inheritance_n whereof_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o pledge_n &_o seal_n be_v seal_v in_o their_o heart_n here_o only_o be_v the_o difference_n that_o the_o spirit_n be_v pour_v out_o more_o abundant_o &_o plentiful_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n but_o if_o thou_o have_v regard_n unto_o the_o dispensation_n of_o doctrine_n salvation_n shall_v seem_v to_o have_v be_v then_o for_o a_o surety_n first_o manifest_v when_o christ_n be_v exhibit_v in_o the_o flesh_n with_o such_o obscurity_n be_v all_o thing_n cover_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n in_o comparison_n of_o that_o light_n be_v under_o the_o gospel_n furthermore_o if_o the_o law_n be_v consider_v in_o itself_o it_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o bind_v man_n that_o be_v subject_a to_o miserable_a servitude_n with_o the_o horror_n of_o death_n because_o it_o promise_v no_o good_a thing_n but_o with_o condition_n and_o it_o denounce_v death_n against_o all_o transgressor_n wherefore_o as_o under_o the_o law_n there_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n which_o press_v the_o conscience_n with_o fear_n so_o under_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n which_o cheer_v our_o soul_n with_o the_o testimony_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o observe_v that_o fear_n be_v join_v to_o bondage_n because_o it_o can_v not_o otherwise_o be_v but_o the_o law_n shall_v with_o wonderful_a disquietness_n vex_v and_o torment_v our_o soul_n so_o long_o as_o it_o exercise_v his_o power_n bondage_n how_o fear_n be_v join_v with_o bondage_n wherefore_o there_o be_v no_o other_o remedy_n
