obey_v it_o they_o grieve_v when_o they_o can_v obey_v it_o now_o this_o according_a to_o the_o gospel_n be_v count_v obedience_n thus_o christ_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o law_n as_o it_o do_v occasion_n sin_n to_o reign_v in_o we_o again_o second_o christ_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n for_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v the_o justice_n and_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o our_o transgress_v the_o law_n the_o law_n can_v have_v no_o force_n to_o curse_v we_o here_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n why_o sin_n can_v have_v dominion_n over_o god_n people_n because_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v god_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n redeem_v they_o from_o under_o the_o law_n second_o because_o all_o that_o be_v christ_n people_n must_v be_v like_a unto_o christ_n thereupon_o it_o be_v that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v say_v to_o put_v on_o christ_n they_o be_v say_v to_o live_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o member_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o brethren_n of_o christ_n the_o branch_n of_o christ_n all_o these_o metaphor_n be_v to_o show_v we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o likeness_n between_o christ_n and_o all_o that_o be_v his_o people_n now_o as_o they_o be_v to_o be_v like_o christ_n in_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o these_o two_o thing_n first_o sin_n have_v no_o dominion_n over_o christ_n it_o never_o lord_v over_o he_o to_o obedience_n second_o death_n and_o damnation_n never_o have_v power_n over_o christ_n first_o sin_n have_v no_o dominion_n no_o power_n over_o he_o christ_n indeed_o be_v oft_o tempt_v to_o sin_n but_o he_o never_o obey_v sin_n the_o world_n set_v itself_o to_o ensnare_v he_o the_o devil_n set_v himself_o to_o draw_v he_o into_o sin_n but_o neither_o world_n nor_o devil_n can_v never_o have_v any_o power_n over_o he_o to_o bring_v he_o under_o sin_n indeed_o christ_n be_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n for_o he_o bear_v our_o transgression_n but_o christ_n be_v never_o under_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n sin_n have_v never_o any_o power_n over_o he_o to_o make_v he_o obey_v it_o in_o this_o must_v all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v like_a unto_o christ_n that_o as_o sin_n have_v no_o power_n of_o christ_n to_o make_v he_o obey_v it_o so_o sin_n must_v have_v no_o power_n over_o any_o of_o god_n people_n to_o make_v they_o obey_v it_o now_o there_o be_v a_o double_a obedience_n the_o one_o be_v when_o as_o sin_n be_v obey_v at_o all_o the_o other_o be_v when_o as_o sin_n be_v obey_v with_o full_a consent_n of_o the_o will_n the_o first_o when_o sin_n be_v obey_v at_o all_o though_o it_o be_v with_o grief_n and_o opposition_n from_o this_o obedience_n of_o sin_n shall_v the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v deliver_v in_o due_a time_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v after_o death_n than_o they_o shall_v be_v perfect_o like_o christ_n when_o they_o shall_v be_v perfect_o free_v from_o do_v the_o command_n of_o sin_n but_o from_o that_o other_o obedience_n of_o sin_n to_o obey_v it_o with_o full_a consent_n of_o will_n as_o a_o child_n do_v the_o father_n as_o a_o subject_n do_v the_o law_n and_o command_n of_o his_o sovereign_n from_o this_o obedience_n of_o sin_n christ_n deliver_v his_o people_n in_o this_o world_n and_o so_o in_o part_n they_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o he_o in_o this_o life_n while_o they_o be_v free_v from_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o though_o sin_n captive_a they_o yet_o sin_n do_v not_o lord_n it_o over_o they_o neither_o do_v they_o obey_v sin_n full_o with_o consent_n as_o a_o subject_a his_o sovereign_n again_o second_o death_n have_v no_o power_n over_o christ_n rom._n 6._o 9_o christ_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a die_v no_o more_o death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o he_o the_o lord_n christ_n indeed_o be_v once_o seize_v upon_o by_o death_n he_o be_v once_o under_o the_o power_n of_o a_o temporal_a death_n but_o he_o be_v once_o raise_v from_o death_n death_n now_o never_o can_v reach_v christ_n any_o more_o in_o this_o also_o must_v all_o god_n people_n be_v like_a unto_o christ_n indeed_o it_o be_v true_a once_o death_n and_o damnation_n have_v dominion_n over_o we_o we_o be_v under_o the_o guilt_n and_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n as_o christ_n be_v once_o under_o death_n but_o as_o christ_n once_o be_v deliver_v from_o death_n death_n never_o after_o have_v dominion_n over_o he_o so_o all_o that_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v by_o christ_n deliver_v from_o the_o sentence_n of_o damnation_n it_o shall_v never_o come_v to_o have_v dominion_n over_o they_o once_o they_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n to_o damnation_n but_o now_o by_o christ_n they_o be_v deliver_v from_o it_o death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o they_o howsoever_o a_o bodily_a death_n prevail_v so_o far_o as_o to_o part_v body_n and_o soul_n for_o a_o while_n yet_o not_o so_o as_o to_o expose_v they_o to_o damnation_n to_o the_o end_n therefore_o that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o proportion_n between_o the_o root_n and_o the_o branch_n between_o the_o head_n and_o the_o member_n between_o the_o elder_a brother_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o brethren_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o people_n of_o god_n hence_o it_o come_v of_o necessity_n that_o sin_n must_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o any_o of_o god_n people_n to_o apply_v this_o point_n now_o thus_o open_v and_o clear_v it_o serve_v first_o for_o instruction_n to_o teach_v we_o the_o falseness_n of_o that_o position_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n that_o all_o man_n be_v sinner_n alike_o that_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o sinner_n in_o the_o world_n when_o any_o of_o god_n child_n come_v to_o a_o wicked_a man_n a_o drunkard_n a_o whoremaster_n a_o swearer_n etc._n etc._n and_o tell_v he_o of_o his_o sin_n say_v he_o present_o we_o be_v all_o sinner_n alike_o i_o have_v my_o vice_n and_o you_o have_v your_o vice_n one_o man_n have_v one_o sin_n and_o another_o man_n another_o but_o sinner_n we_o be_v all_o alike_o this_o be_v a_o damnable_a opinion_n and_o a_o mark_n and_o brand_n of_o a_o wretched_a person_n but_o now_o this_o doctrine_n teach_v we_o that_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n people_n and_o other_o be_v all_o sinner_n and_o alike_o by_o nature_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o god_n people_n that_o be_v under_o sin_n and_o the_o unregenerate_a man_n indeed_o god_n child_n they_o be_v under_o sin_n but_o mark_v it_o they_o be_v not_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n thou_o be_v under_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n but_o they_o be_v not_o under_o that_o there_o be_v the_o difference_n we_o be_v all_o sinner_n but_o we_o be_v not_o all_o alike_a sinner_n we_o that_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v under_o the_o guilt_n and_o power_n of_o some_o sin_n but_o yet_o we_o be_v not_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o any_o sin_n sin_n have_v neither_o dominion_n over_o we_o to_o rule_v we_o as_o a_o sovereign_n do_v his_o subject_n nor_o to_o damn_v we_o as_o it_o shall_v do_v they_o that_o be_v not_o in_o christ_n but_o as_o for_o thou_o that_o be_v a_o carnal_a wretch_n thou_o be_v under_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n thou_o do_v obey_v sin_n in_o the_o lust_n thereof_o if_o sin_n bid_v thou_o do_v a_o thing_n thou_o do_v it_o and_o do_v it_o withal_o thy_o heart_n and_o so_o as_o thou_o be_v under_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n so_o thou_o be_v under_o the_o damnation_n of_o sin_n except_o by_o faith_n and_o repentance_n thou_o come_v out_o of_o this_o condition_n therefore_o learn_v that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n we_o be_v all_o under_o sin_n but_o not_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n as_o the_o world_n be_v second_o the_o second_o use_n be_v for_o consolation_n and_o it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o wonderful_a comfort_n to_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n i_o do_v not_o speak_v now_o to_o they_o that_o be_v unregenerate_v that_o be_v alien_n to_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n stranger_n to_o the_o covenant_n of_o promise_n that_o be_v without_o christ_n and_o god_n in_o the_o world_n this_o be_v child_n bread_n and_o it_o belong_v not_o to_o such_o dog_n as_o they_o be_v but_o i_o speak_v this_o to_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n to_o all_o that_o be_v bear_v again_o and_o that_o you_o may_v know_v to_o who_o i_o speak_v take_v this_o one_o sign_n such_o of_o you_o as_o be_v as_o true_o burden_a with_o the_o presence_n of_o sin_n as_o with_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n such_o of_o you_o as_o be_v as_o true_o offend_v with_o the_o filth_n of_o sin_n as_o

all_o those_o in_o who_o christ_n be_v a_o death_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o resurrection_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n this_o the_o apostle_n plain_o and_o large_o prove_v in_o that_o place_n for_o the_o further_a open_v of_o this_o point_n you_o must_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v divers_a degree_n both_o of_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n first_o there_o be_v a_o perfect_a death_n of_o sin_n when_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o sin_n be_v altogether_o destroy_v and_o perfect_o root_v out_o of_o a_o man_n and_o there_o be_v a_o imperfect_a death_n of_o sin_n when_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o sin_n and_o every_o particular_a of_o it_o be_v in_o part_n and_o but_o in_o part_n destroy_v and_o root_v out_o of_o a_o man_n again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o be_v a_o perfect_a life_n of_o righteousness_n when_o the_o whole_a frame_n of_o holiness_n be_v perfect_o and_o complete_o set_v up_o in_o a_o man_n and_o a_o imperfect_a life_n of_o righteousness_n when_o the_o same_o frame_n be_v in_o every_o particular_a of_o it_o yet_o but_o imperfect_o set_v up_o my_o brethren_n that_o i_o chief_o desire_v you_o shall_v mark_v be_v this_o that_o in_o the_o imperfect_a death_n of_o sin_n and_o in_o the_o imperfect_a life_n of_o righteousness_n there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o perfection_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o particular_a part_n both_o of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o frame_n of_o holiness_n there_o be_v no_o part_n no_o member_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v not_o destroy_v and_o suppress_v only_o it_o be_v destroy_v but_o in_o part_n and_o not_o perfect_o every_o member_n i_o say_v of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n do_v in_o part_n suffer_v death_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n call_v it_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o body_n rom._n 6._o 6._o our_o old_a man_n say_v the_o apostle_n be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o the_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v or_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n destroy_v if_o so_o be_v that_o every_o part_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o every_o member_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n be_v not_o in_o some_o measure_n destroy_v but_o although_o every_o part_n and_o particular_a of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n be_v destroy_v yet_o here_o be_v no_o part_n no_o particular_a but_o be_v still_o alive_a and_o unsubdued_a even_o in_o the_o people_n of_o god_n even_o in_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o all_o corruption_n to_o be_v find_v there_o be_v the_o relic_n of_o every_o kind_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v the_o lusting_n of_o every_o fruit_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o sometime_o one_o part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n sometime_o another_o part_n according_a as_o god_n be_v please_v to_o leave_v they_o for_o their_o trial_n do_v break_v out_o and_o manifest_v itself_o in_o they_o so_o it_o be_v also_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n that_o same_o imperfect_a life_n of_o righteousness_n have_v in_o it_o every_o part_n of_o holiness_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n that_o be_v not_o in_o part_n quicken_v no_o piece_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n that_o be_v not_o in_o part_n stamp_v upon_o the_o soul_n thereupon_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o godly_a have_v the_o seed_n of_o god_n remain_v in_o they_o that_o they_o be_v partaker_n of_o that_o divine_a nature_n that_o they_o have_v the_o law_n of_o god_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o god_n that_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n none_o of_o these_o thing_n can_v be_v say_v of_o they_o if_o they_o have_v not_o every_o part_n and_o particular_a of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n in_o some_o measure_n in_o they_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v no_o part_n no_o particular_a of_o the_o body_n and_o frame_v of_o holiness_n perfect_o in_o they_o but_o only_o imperfect_o and_o in_o degree_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n not_o that_o which_o be_v perfect_a for_o that_o shall_v never_o be_v attain_v to_o till_o after_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n but_o that_o which_o be_v imperfect_a and_o that_o be_v infallible_o in_o all_o in_o whosoever_o christ_n be_v yea_o and_o not_o only_o one_o of_o these_o but_o joint_o both_o of_o they_o be_v imperfect_o in_o all_o these_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o text_n join_v they_o both_o together_o for_o howsoever_o we_o will_v not_o now_o stand_v to_o dispute_v whether_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n be_v the_o cause_n or_o spring_n of_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n as_o the_o come_n in_o of_o light_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o expulsion_n of_o darkness_n yet_o this_o be_v sure_a that_o they_o be_v always_o inseparable_a and_o go_v together_o there_o be_v no_o life_n of_o righteousness_n where_o there_o be_v not_o a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v no_o death_n of_o sin_n where_o there_o be_v not_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n now_o than_o my_o brethren_n the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o all_o this_o point_n that_o i_o have_v thus_o open_v and_o prove_v to_o you_o come_v to_o thus_o much_o that_o whoever_o have_v christ_n in_o they_o they_o have_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o sin_n in_o every_o part_n of_o it_o weaken_a and_o destroy_v and_o the_o whole_a frame_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n in_o every_o part_n of_o it_o begin_v in_o they_o though_o both_o but_o in_o part_n give_v i_o leave_v now_o as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v to_o make_v application_n first_o then_o here_o you_o have_v a_o clear_a locking-glasse_n wherein_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o the_o face_n of_o the_o state_n and_o temper_n of_o your_o soul_n i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v it_o well_o and_o the_o lord_n set_v it_o home_o upon_o your_o heart_n either_o you_o have_v christ_n in_o you_o or_o you_o have_v he_o not_o in_o you_o if_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o than_o you_o have_v this_o imperfect_a death_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n of_o righteousness_n but_o if_o you_o have_v not_o this_o than_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o you_o be_v exhort_v therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o try_v yourselves_o by_o this_o touchstone_n but_o some_o will_v say_v how_o shall_v i_o be_v able_a to_o know_v whether_o i_o have_v this_o same_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n of_o righteousness_n in_o i_o yea_o or_o no_o this_o be_v show_v already_o yet_o to_o help_v you_o more_o particular_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o you_o may_v judge_v of_o that_o imperfect_a death_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o we_o in_o this_o world_n and_o first_o for_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n between_o the_o restraint_n or_o the_o sleep_n of_o sin_n and_o this_o death_n of_o sin_n many_o people_n deceive_v themselves_o with_o take_v the_o restrain_v or_o sleep_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o indeed_o many_o time_n a_o sin_n that_o be_v restrain_v or_o asleep_a may_v appear_v to_o other_o and_o to_o a_o man_n self_n to_o be_v more_o dead_a than_o a_o sin_n that_o be_v dead_a indeed_o for_o this_o same_o death_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o be_v in_o all_o those_o that_o have_v christ_n in_o they_o be_v not_o as_o i_o say_v before_o a_o utter_a destruction_n a_o plenary_a and_o full_a abolishment_n of_o sin_n but_o it_o be_v only_o a_o weaken_n a_o lessen_v and_o diminish_v thereof_o now_o a_o sin_n that_o be_v only_o weaken_v and_o yet_o stir_v may_v be_v more_o manifest_a than_o a_o sin_n that_o be_v restrain_v or_o asleep_a and_o stir_v not_o for_o the_o present_a one_o that_o be_v shut_v up_o in_o a_o prison_n can_v do_v so_o much_o in_o the_o street_n as_o a_o weak_a and_o

of_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v these_o first_o of_o all_o where_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n be_v lessen_v and_o weaken_v
