and_o save_v they_o from_o sin_n m_n and_o though_o sin_n have_v its_o full_a power_n in_o our_o own_o humane_a life_n yet_o it_o have_v no_o power_n over_o christ_n life_n in_o we_o which_o we_o live_v through_o faith_n wherefore_o say_v paul_n rom._n 6.6_o know_v this_o that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o he_o that_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v destroy_v that_o henceforth_o we_o shall_v not_o serve_v sin_n and_o verse_n 12._o say_v he_o let_v not_o sin_n therefore_o reign_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d in_o your_o mortal_a or_o dead_a body_n which_o he_o call_v dead_a not_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o common_a mortality_n of_o the_o world_n but_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o crucify_a with_o christ_n and_o in_o the_o body_n that_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n sin_n be_v not_o to_o reign_v and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o through_o our_o crucify_a with_o christ_n we_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n also_o n_z for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o christ_n and_o sin_n shall_v live_v together_o in_o strength_n in_o the_o same_o flesh_n but_o if_o sin_n live_v in_o our_o flesh_n it_o will_v crucify_v we_o to_o christ_n and_o if_o christ_n live_v in_o our_o flesh_n he_o will_v crucify_v we_o to_o sin_n 3._o by_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n we_o be_v free_v from_o death_n that_o death_n that_o arise_v of_o sin_n and_o carry_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n in_o it_o for_o through_o the_o death_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n we_o be_v set_v free_a from_o the_o death_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n and_o through_o that_o death_n to_o die_v unto_o life_n vnbelieve_v flesh_n be_v the_o fuel_n of_o death_n as_o wood_n be_v of_o fire_n and_o death_n reign_v and_o have_v its_o full_a dominion_n in_o the_o flesh_n of_o all_o unbeliever_n o_o but_o when_o we_o by_o faith_n be_v make_v member_n of_o christ_n body_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o bone_n than_o life_n reign_v in_o christ_n flesh_n as_o death_n in_o we_o and_o so_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n death_n have_v no_o more_o dominion_n over_o we_o 4._o by_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n we_o be_v also_o free_v from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n the_o devil_n ha●h_v power_n over_o our_o flesh_n or_o humanity_n while_o it_o be_v our_o own_o and_o under_o the_o law_n sin_n and_o death_n but_o when_o our_o flesh_n be_v unite_v to_o christ_n and_o be_v crucify_v by_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n than_o satan_n come_v and_o have_v nothing_o in_o it_o as_o he_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o have_v nothing_o in_o he_o p_o the_o devil_n then_o can_v find_v nothing_o in_o we_o to_o do_v we_o harm_n or_o whereby_o he_o may_v prevail_v against_o we_o when_o we_o be_v true_o crucify_v with_o christ_n 5._o q_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n be_v only_a christ_n own_o flesh_n for_o while_o we_o live_v our_o own_o life_n in_o unbelief_n we_o be_v only_o the_o flesh_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n r_n but_o when_o the_o live_a word_n and_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o we_o and_o crucify_v we_o than_o our_o flesh_n become_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n and_o so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v crucify_v through_o the_o word_n it_o be_v christ_n flesh_n more_o than_o we_o 6._o s_n this_o crucify_a flesh_n be_v the_o only_a temple_n and_o habitation_n of_o god_n wherein_o he_o dwell_v and_o manifest_v himself_o in_o this_o world_n for_o as_o god_n dwell_v in_o christ_n flesh_n which_o be_v thus_o crucify_v and_o make_v it_o his_o temple_n so_o he_o dwell_v in_o the_o crucify_a flesh_n of_o believer_n and_o make_v that_o his_o temple_n as_o paul_n say_v to_o believer_n you_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o live_a god_n as_o god_n have_v say_v i_o will_v dwell_v in_o they_o and_o walk_v in_o they_o and_o god_n dwell_v in_o none_o of_o the_o flesh_n of_o all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n but_o only_o in_o that_o which_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n and_o that_o flesh_n that_o be_v not_o thus_o crucify_v be_v not_o god_n habitation_n but_o the_o devil_n 7._o t_n this_o crucify_a flesh_n only_o keep_v the_o true_a christian_a sabbath_n or_o the_o everlasting_a rest_n of_o the_o new_a world_n which_o be_v to_o cease_v from_o our_o own_o work_n and_o to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o god_n whereas_o that_o flesh_n that_o be_v alive_a to_o itself_o and_o live_v its_o own_o life_n in_o itself_o and_o the_o creature_n never_o enter_v into_o the_o true_a rest_n nor_o keep_v the_o true_a sabbath_n but_o it_o always_o work_v its_o own_o work_n and_o do_v all_o thing_n from_o itself_o and_o for_o itself_o and_o so_o long_a god_n will_v not_o use_v it_o five_o but_o when_o the_o flesh_n be_v crucify_v through_o the_o word_n than_o god_n do_v all_o in_o it_o and_o take_v it_o out_o of_o its_o own_o life_n and_o work_n into_o his_o life_n and_o his_o work_n and_o the_o more_o any_o flesh_n be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n the_o more_o do_v god_n delight_n to_o use_v it_o and_o to_o work_v his_o own_o excellent_a work_n by_o it_o for_o such_o flesh_n will_v render_v no_o resistance_n to_o god_n in_o his_o work_n and_o also_o it_o will_v do_v the_o work_n of_o god_n mere_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o good_a of_o his_o brother_n be_v dead_a to_o all_o self_n end_n and_o interest_n 8._o w_n this_o crucify_a flesh_n only_o be_v able_a to_o endure_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o to_o suffer_v for_o his_o name_n for_o till_o the_o flesh_n be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n and_o kill_v by_o the_o word_n it_o will_v suffer_v nothing_o for_o god_n but_o will_v by_o all_o possible_a mean_n avoid_v the_o cross_n but_o when_o it_o be_v true_o crucify_v it_o will_v endure_v the_o great_a evil_n that_o can_v be_v inflict_v on_o it_o either_o by_o man_n or_o devil_n or_o by_o the_o lord_n himself_o and_o that_o with_o much_o willingness_n and_o cheerfulness_n as_o we_o have_v see_v in_o christ_n the_o head_n and_o believer_n the_o member_n what_o grievous_a thing_n they_o have_v suffer_v for_o the_o name_n and_o truth_n of_o god_n in_o their_o crucify_a flesh_n and_o as_o this_o crucify_a flesh_n will_v suffer_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n so_o it_o will_v suffer_v it_o aright_o that_o be_v first_o in_o obedience_n to_o god_n as_o christ_n lay_v down_o his_o life_n not_o by_o necessity_n but_o willing_o second_o in_o meekness_n and_o patience_n as_o christ_n who_o when_o he_o be_v revile_v revile_v not_o again_o when_o he_o suffer_v he_o threaten_v not_o but_o commit_v his_o cause_n to_o he_o that_o judge_v righteous_o and_o three_o in_o love_n and_o that_o to_o very_a persecutor_n so_o as_o to_o pity_v they_o &_o pray_v for_o they_o this_o be_v glorious_a suffering_n indeed_o and_o no_o flesh_n can_v suffer_v thus_o but_o this_o crucify_a flesh_n 9_o x_o this_o crucify_a flesh_n as_o it_o be_v able_a to_o suffer_v all_o thing_n so_o also_o to_o overcome_v all_o thing_n that_o flesh_n that_o live_v its_o own_o life_n be_v soon_o certain_o conquer_v by_o all_o the_o evil_n that_o assault_v it_o but_o when_o it_o be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n it_o be_v also_o quicken_v with_o he_o to_o overcome_v all_o thing_n so_o christ_n who_o be_v thus_o crucify_v by_o the_o word_n though_o he_o seem_v to_o the_o world_n in_o his_o death_n and_o cross_a to_o be_v quite_o vanquish_v yet_o even_o then_o he_o spoil_v principality_n and_o power_n and_o triumph_v open_o over_o they_o yea_o and_o overcome_v all_o thing_n in_o that_o crucify_a flesh_n of_o he_o for_o that_o flesh_n that_o be_v crucify_v by_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n be_v thereby_o make_v superior_a to_o all_o thing_n in_o that_o exaltation_n and_o might_n which_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n communicate_v to_o it_o 10_o y_z this_o crucify_a flesh_n have_v the_o very_a glory_n of_o jesus_n christ_n upon_o it_o and_o no_o flesh_n be_v so_o glorious_a in_o the_o church_n as_o that_o which_o be_v most_o crucify_a with_o christ_n for_o in_o that_o you_o shall_v see_v little_a of_o itself_o and_o most_o of_o christ_n little_a of_o the_o first_o adam_n and_o most_o of_o the_o second_o look_v among_o all_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v they_o that_o be_v most_o crucify_v with_o the_o word_n most_o glorious_a the_o clear_a beauty_n of_o holiness_n be_v see_v upon_o they_o whereas_o that_o flesh_n that_o live_v much_o in_o itself_o in_o its_o own_o wit_n will_n reason_n prudence_n mind_n affection_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o its_o first_o nature_n though_o there_o may_v be_v something_o of_o christ_n in_o it_o yet_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o much_o uncomeliness_n and_o deformity_n upon_o it_o and_o be_v

christian_a through_o true_a faith_n do_v lose_v his_o personality_n not_o his_o humanity_n for_o his_o nature_n live_v but_o not_o in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n c_z indeed_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n and_o according_a to_o his_o first_o birth_n be_v a_o distinct_a person_n by_o himself_o and_o live_v a_o proper_a life_n of_o his_o own_o in_o and_z by_o himself_o till_o faith_n come_v and_o knit_v he_o unto_o christ_n and_o then_o he_o subsist_v in_o christ_n person_n and_o be_v no_o more_o a_o person_n distinct_a by_o himself_o so_o far_o as_o he_o be_v gather_v up_o into_o christ_n through_o faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o life_n and_o act_n in_o he_o for_o then_o christ_n be_v make_v so_o one_o with_o a_o christian_a and_o a_o christian_a with_o christ_n that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o distinction_n between_o they_o in_o this_o unity_n than_o there_o be_v between_o the_o head_n and_o a_o member_n now_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o point_n through_o the_o experience_n of_o faith_n be_v of_o excellent_a use_n to_o a_o christian_a in_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o salvation_n d_o in_o as_o much_o as_o each_o man_n as_o he_o be_v a_o distinct_a person_n by_o himself_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o appertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o be_v within_o the_o reach_n and_o power_n of_o death_n and_o hell_n but_o as_o he_o be_v take_v into_o jesus_n christ_n by_o faith_n that_o be_v as_o he_o be_v take_v into_o his_o person_n as_o his_o member_n and_o lose_v his_o own_o person_n so_o he_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n sin_n and_o death_n as_o christ_n be_v free_a so_o that_o if_o the_o law_n sin_n death_n or_o the_o devil_n come_v to_o a_o believer_n to_o accuse_v terrify_v or_o condemn_v he_o he_o because_o of_o this_o most_o real_a and_o near_a union_n with_o christ_n may_v reply_v in_o truth_n and_o say_v it_o be_v not_o i_o i_o be_o not_o i_o i_o be_o through_o faith_n become_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n and_o i_o be_o he_o and_o he_o be_v i_o and_o if_o you_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o say_v say_v it_o to_o the_o person_n himself_o for_o i_o be_o but_o a_o member_n and_o do_v live_v in_o his_o person_n the_o clear_a and_o spiritual_a knowledge_n of_o this_o matter_n will_v be_v a_o great_a support_n to_o we_o in_o all_o time_n of_o temptation_n and_o in_o all_o deep_a sense_n of_o sin_n and_o wrath_n see_v we_o common_o in_o such_o sad_a and_o painful_a hour_n do_v look_v upon_o ourselves_o as_o person_n by_o our_o self_n and_o distinct_a from_o christ_n and_o then_o we_o do_v true_o both_o fear_n and_o feel_v sin_n and_o death_n and_o hell_n within_o we_o and_o then_o also_o the_o devil_n and_o our_o own_o evil_a conscience_n be_v too_o mighty_a for_o we_o when_o we_o consider_v ourselves_o in_o ourselves_o wherefore_o at_o such_o time_n we_o must_v needs_o prevail_v by_o faith_n and_o know_v that_o we_o through_o faith_n be_v not_o person_n by_o ourselves_o but_o that_o we_o be_v part_n and_o member_n of_o christ_n and_o live_v in_o his_o person_n and_o consequent_o in_o so_o near_a union_n with_o he_o that_o christ_n can_v be_v save_v without_o we_o nor_o we_o perish_v without_o he_o and_o so_o none_o can_v lay_v any_o thing_n to_o our_o charge_n but_o what_o christ_n have_v take_v upon_o himself_o and_o overcome_v for_o we_o and_o so_o the_o law_n sin_n death_n hell_n and_o devil_n can_v as_o soon_o prevail_v against_o christ_n as_o against_o we_o who_o be_v so_o join_v to_o he_o that_o we_o be_v one_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n with_o he_o e_z it_o be_v true_a if_o we_o be_v person_n by_o ourselves_o these_o evil_n and_o enemy_n will_v be_v too_o hard_a for_o we_o but_o be_v draw_v unto_o christ_n by_o the_o father_n and_o be_v by_o he_o also_o implant_v in_o christ_n and_o make_v branch_n of_o that_o vine_n and_o member_n of_o that_o person_n we_o thus_o become_v one_o with_o he_o who_o be_v conqueror_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o we_o ourselves_o also_o be_v more_o than_o conqueror_n in_o he_o wherefore_o let_v we_o all_o know_v that_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o adoption_n justification_n sanctification_n and_o of_o our_o
