seek_v righteousness_n and_o justification_n by_o they_o of_o how_o dangerous_a consequence_n the_o observation_n of_o these_o ceremony_n be_v may_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o galatian_n the_o main_a design_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o whole_a epistle_n be_v to_o reclaim_v the_o galatian_n from_o adhere_v to_o moysaicall_a ceremony_n by_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o

the_o most_o inconsiderable_a ceremony_n and_o in_o gal._n 5.2_o 3._o behold_v i_o paul_n testify_v unto_o you_o etc._n etc._n that_o be_v if_o those_o who_o be_v circumcise_v look_v on_o

valet_fw-la consequentia_fw-la and_o also_o if_o they_o stand_v upon_o that_o as_o a_o work_n of_o the_o law_n by_o which_o they_o shall_v be_v justify_v than_o christ_n will_v profit_v they_o nothing_o they_o be_v debtor_n to_o do_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o therefore_o will_v have_v no_o benefit_n by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o you_o see_v that_o though_o these_o ceremony_n consider_v absolute_o in_o themselves_o be_v indifferent_a yet_o by_o reason_n of_o some_o circumstance_n which_o may_v be_v annex_v to_o they_o they_o be_v very_o perilous_a and_o of_o dangerous_a consequence_n wherefore_o as_o some_o indifferent_a action_n though_o absolute_o in_o their_o own_o nature_n all_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v equal_o indifferent_a by_o reason_n of_o good_a circumstance_n usual_o attend_v they_o be_v of_o good_a report_n as_o till_v the_o ground_n and_o the_o like_a and_o some_o by_o reason_n of_o evil_a circumstance_n usual_o annex_v to_o they_o be_v of_o ill_a report_n as_o perform_v the_o office_n of_o a_o hangman_n or_o a_o executioner_n which_o though_o lawful_a be_v yet_o account_v infamous_a so_o if_o we_o compare_v the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n with_o the_o levitical_a ceremony_n as_o use_v after_o the_o ascension_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o promulgation_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o the_o apostle_n we_o may_v say_v that_o we_o be_v as_o the_o former_a they_o as_o the_o latter_a some_o indeed_o excuse_v the_o jewish_a ceremony_n in_o that_o they_o be_v institute_v by_o god_n at_o first_o aught_o to_o have_v a_o decent_a sepulture_n that_o the_o jew_n be_v persuade_v of_o their_o necessity_n must_v be_v tolerate_v and_o bear_v with_o in_o their_o opinion_n but_o these_o excuse_n be_v nothing_o pertinent_a to_o the_o business_n in_o hand_n god_n institution_n when_o expire_v be_v extrinsical_a and_o they_o be_v no_o long_o to_o be_v observe_v by_o his_o appointment_n be_v abolish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n col._n 2.14_o now_o if_o a_o master_n appoint_v business_n for_o so_o long_a time_n and_o no_o long_o if_o his_o servant_n continue_v in_o it_o afterward_o what_o he_o do_v be_v of_o his_o own_o will_n and_o he_o may_v be_v punish_v for_o it_o and_o that_o the_o jew_n must_v be_v bear_v with_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o however_o this_o prove_v not_o but_o that_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o moysaicall_a ceremony_n for_o that_o time_n be_v of_o very_o dangerous_a consequence_n and_o though_o ignorance_n may_v excuse_v the_o generality_n of_o the_o convert_a jew_n yet_o it_o can_v not_o excuse_v the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n who_o know_v they_o to_o be_v abolish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n neither_o be_v the_o question_n whether_o the_o jewish_a ceremony_n ought_v to_o have_v a_o decent_a sepulture_n or_o no_o but_o whether_o such_o ceremony_n of_o so_o dangerous_a consequence_n and_o so_o nighly_a border_v on_o unlawfulness_n may_v not_o however_o be_v bear_v with_o upon_o other_o more_o important_a cause_n so_o much_o of_o the_o first_o proposition_n or_o demonstration_n of_o the_o sequel_n by_o which_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o if_o the_o jewish_a ceremony_n which_o signify_v christ_n to_o come_v who_o be_v already_o come_v and_o do_v abolish_v they_o by_o his_o death_n which_o be_v vain_a repetition_n of_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n christ_n be_v already_o offer_v up_o for_o all_o which_o be_v use_v as_o sacrament_n look_v on_o as_o necessary_a part_n of_o divine_a worship_n be_v think_v significant_a not_o only_o on_o our_o part_n but_o god_n too_o who_o observation_n among_o the_o jew_n do_v endanger_v their_o intrusion_n upon_o the_o gentile_n for_o who_o it_o be_v utter_o impossible_a to_o observe_v they_o all_o nay_o who_o observation_n do_v tend_v to_o confirm_v the_o jew_n in_o seek_v righteousness_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n do_v infect_v many_o gentile_n as_o the_o galatian_n with_o the_o same_o error_n insomuch_o that_o christ_n be_v like_a to_o profit_v they_o nothing_o and_o their_o faith_n to_o be_v in_o vain_a if_o these_o ceremony_n may_v at_o any_o time_n under_o such_o circumstance_n be_v lawful_o use_v certain_o much_o more_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o be_v not_o liable_a to_o such_o inconvenience_n and_o many_o of_o which_o have_v be_v derive_v down_o unto_o we_o from_o the_o primitive_a christian_n so_o i_o come_v now_o to_o prove_v the_o second_o proposition_n or_o assumption_n but_o these_o jewish_a ceremony_n be_v sometime_o lawful_o use_v even_o by_o those_o who_o assure_o know_v they_o to_o be_v abolish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n i_o shall_v not_o here_o instance_n in_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o convert_a jew_n especial_o those_o who_o live_v in_o judea_n who_o observe_v they_o all_o because_o they_o may_v not_o at_o that_o time_n and_o so_o soon_o be_v full_o instruct_v nor_o yet_o till_o the_o temple_n itself_o be_v destroy_v nor_o yet_o understand_v the_o extent_n of_o christian_a liberty_n but_o i_o shall_v prove_v my_o assertion_n as_o by_o the_o other_o apostle_n so_o also_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o st._n paul_n and_o his_o example_n conformable_a to_o his_o precept_n who_o know_v the_o obligation_n to_o all_o these_o thing_n to_o be_v abolish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o do_v among_o the_o gentile_n to_o who_o their_o observation_n must_v needs_o prove_v a_o intolerable_a yoke_n and_o burden_n most_o oppose_v they_o as_o for_o the_o apostle_n we_o see_v their_o conformity_n act_v 3.1_o and_o st._n paul_n tell_v we_o how_o he_o reprove_v st._n peter_n for_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o dissimulation_n among_o the_o gentile_n as_o we_o read_v gal._n 2._o and_o as_o for_o st._n paul_n himself_o we_o may_v see_v his_o precept_n rom._n 14.1_o 2_o 3_o 4_o 5_o 14_o 15._o wherein_o he_o exhort_v the_o strong_a among_o the_o gentile_n not_o to_o offend_v their_o brethren_n the_o jew_n by_o their_o overmuch_a freedom_n second_o let_v we_o take_v notice_n of_o his_o glory_v as_o it_o be_v in_o his_o compliance_n and_o conformity_n with_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n for_o their_o salvation_n in_o these_o indifferent_a ceremony_n 1_o cor._n 19.9_o 20_o 21_o 22_o 23._o where_o we_o may_v note_v that_o as_o long_o as_o the_o gospel_n be_v propagate_v we_o need_v not_o stand_v upon_o indifference_n the_o apostle_n do_v in_o these_o matter_n observe_v that_o rule_n dum_fw-la fueris_fw-la romae_fw-la romano_n vivito_fw-la more_fw-it si_fw-mi fueris_fw-la alibi_fw-la vivito_fw-la sicut_fw-la ibi_fw-la now_o how_o the_o apostle_n do_v put_v his_o doctrine_n of_o compliance_n and_o conformity_n in_o practice_n will_v be_v see_v by_o these_o particular_a instance_n first_o by_o his_o circumcise_n timothy_n act_v 16.1_o 2_o 3._o where_o we_o find_v that_o ceremony_n which_o the_o apostle_n declare_v so_o much_o against_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o galatian_n tell_v they_o that_o if_o they_o be_v circumcise_v christ_n shall_v profit_v they_o nothing_o gal._n 5.2_o be_v now_o by_o he_o apply_v to_o timothy_n notwithstanding_o that_o he_o may_v not_o give_v offence_n to_o the_o jew_n he_o take_v and_o circumcise_v he_o the_o fault_n be_v not_o then_o in_o the_o materiality_n of_o the_o action_n which_o be_v lawful_a enough_o in_o itself_o but_o in_o the_o formality_n of_o the_o application_n among_o the_o galatian_n and_o therefore_o circumcision_n certain_o be_v not_o unlawful_a in_o itself_o though_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o put_v any_o confidence_n in_o it_o as_o a_o work_n of_o the_o law_n which_o the_o galatian_n do_v for_o otherwise_o paul_n will_v never_o have_v circumcise_v timothy_n and_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n if_o any_o one_o shall_v put_v any_o trust_n and_o confidence_n or_o think_v there_o be_v any_o merit_n or_o efficacy_n in_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n if_o he_o shall_v adore_v and_o worship_v it_o
