for_o the_o sin_n of_o those_o which_o shall_v be_v save_v now_o the_o new_a man_n who_o only_o shall_v be_v save_v never_o do_v nor_o can_v not_o commit_v any_o sin_n 3._o his_o prophetical_a

be_v not_o capable_a of_o his_o teach_n answ_n i_o have_v already_o detect_v the_o fallaciousnesse_n of_o this_o argument_n in_o answer_v to_o the_o 6_o argument_n yet_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o prove_v in_o few_o word_n that_o this_o doctrine_n do_v magnify_v christ_n in_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o spiritual_a office_n first_o in_o his_o kingly_a office_n the_o glory_n of_o a_o king_n do_v lie_v in_o subdue_a his_o enemy_n and_o in_o this_o the_o glory_n of_o christ_n consider_v as_o a_o king_n do_v appear_v that_o he_o do_v vanquish_v the_o enemy_n of_o we_o his_o subject_n by_o rule_v in_o our_o heart_n with_o his_o sceptre_n of_o righteousness_n according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o psalmist_n that_o he_o shall_v rule_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o enemy_n by_o this_o we_o see_v his_o regal_a power_n over_o the_o old_a man_n again_o the_o glory_n of_o a_o king_n be_v wrap_v up_o in_o the_o willing_a obedience_n of_o his_o subject_n and_o this_o be_v make_v good_a in_o the_o new_a man_n his_o people_n be_v make_v willing_a in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o power_n for_o what_o be_v here_o object_v that_o the_o new_a man_n need_v not_o the_o government_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v as_o if_o one_o shall_v say_v that_o a_o man_n do_v make_v void_a and_o overthrow_v royal_a government_n because_o he_o maintain_v that_o the_o king_n subject_n be_v willing_o obedient_a unto_o he_o but_o you_o say_v that_o they_o be_v perfect_a and_o therefore_o his_o government_n be_v needless_a the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n be_v make_v perfect_a heb._n 12._o and_o will_v you_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o the_o government_n of_o christ_n over_o they_o be_v needless_a but_o to_o pass_v this_o by_o 2._o it_o will_v appear_v that_o the_o priestly_a office_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o overthrow_v but_o establish_v rather_o by_o this_o doctrine_n for_o first_o we_o hold_v that_o no_o man_n live_v as_o a_o new_a man_n who_o do_v live_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o by_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o new_a man_n we_o be_v daily_o to_o look_v upon_o christ_n as_o a_o priest_n in_o who_o be_v no_o fin_n who_o by_o one_o offering_n have_v perfect_v for_o ever_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v heb._n 10.14_o again_o the_o priest_n be_v to_o offer_v up_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o people_n for_o they_o and_o by_o this_o doctrine_n we_o establish_v christ_n in_o his_o priestly_a office_n which_o we_o can_v not_o do_v if_o we_o shall_v say_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o what_o be_v sin_n and_o sinful_a in_o we_o the_o people_n be_v to_o bring_v something_o which_o be_v good_a to_o be_v offer_v up_o by_o the_o priest_n to_o god_n the_o blind_a lame_a and_o sick_a be_v not_o to_o be_v offer_v unto_o god_n mal._n 1.8_o neither_o be_v that_o which_o we_o do_v that_o be_v sin_n or_o sinful_a offer_v up_o by_o jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o father_n but_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o thus_o we_o establish_v christ_n in_o his_o priestly_a office_n by_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v something_o good_a in_o the_o new_a man_n which_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o acceptance_n 3._o we_o do_v not_o overthrow_v his_o prophetical_a office_n by_o this_o truth_n for_o he_o do_v daily_o teach_v we_o in_o the_o new_a man_n whereas_o you_o say_v that_o he_o need_v not_o his_o teach_n we_o say_v that_o the_o new_a man_n have_v his_o dependence_n upon_o christ_n for_o wisdom_n knowledge_n and_o understanding_n and_o as_o a_o burn_a lamp_n do_v daily_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o oil_n to_o be_v pour_v into_o
