thus_o you_o see_v the_o doctrine_n open_v that_o christ_n have_v give_v himself_o as_o a_o ransom_n to_o redeem_v all_o believer_n from_o all_o iniquity_n from_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o from_o the_o punishment_n of_o all_o sin_n for_o the_o further_a open_v and_o unfolding_n of_o this_o excellent_a point_n consider_v with_o i_o brief_o these_o four_o particular_n first_o that_o all_o believer_n they_o be_v by_o nature_n under_o all_o iniquity_n when_o the_o text_n say_v that_o christ_n give_v himself_o to_o redeem_v they_o from_o all_o iniquity_n this_o impli_v that_o believer_n be_v under_o all_o iniquity_n what_o need_n christ_n give_v himself_o to_o redeem_v they_o from_o that_o under_o which_o they_o be_v not_o you_o shall_v find_v this_o evident_o declare_v rom._n 5._o 12._o by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o so_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o ephes_n 2._o 1_o 2._o 3._o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o believer_n he_o say_v of_o they_o as_o well_o as_o of_o other_o that_o they_o be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n and_o that_o they_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o that_o they_o be_v in_o time_n past_a act_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o walk_v after_o the_o course_n of_o the_o world_n according_a to_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o air_n the_o spirit_n that_o now_o work_v in_o the_o child_n of_o disobedience_n and_o again_o rom._n 3._o 19_o all_o the_o world_n be_v become_v guilty_a before_o god_n all_o man_n by_o nature_n as_o well_o believer_n as_o unbeliever_n be_v all_o under_o iniquity_n first_o they_o be_v under_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n they_o break_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n continual_o second_o they_o be_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o that_o transgression_n for_o he_o that_o have_v the_o sin_n must_v have_v the_o guilt_n three_o they_o be_v under_o the_o punishment_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o breaker_n of_o the_o law_n for_o he_o that_o committeh_a sin_n and_o have_v the_o guilt_n thereof_o must_v needs_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o punishment_n here_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n considerable_a christ_n give_v himself_o to_o redeem_v believer_n from_o all_o iniquity_n therefore_o they_o be_v by_o nature_n under_o all_o iniquity_n the_o second_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v be_v how_o believer_n come_v to_o be_v under_o all_o iniquity_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o they_o be_v bear_v under_o the_o power_n of_o iniquity_n psal_n 51._o 5._o behold_v i_o be_v shape_v in_o iniquity_n say_v a_o believer_n that_o be_v david_n and_o in_o sin_n do_v my_o mother_n warm_v i_o they_o be_v warm_v in_o sin_n and_o conceive_v in_o iniquity_n and_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o place_n before_o allege_v eph._n 2._o 3._o tell_v we_o that_o we_o that_o be_v believer_n be_v all_o by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n but_o you_o will_v say_v whence_o be_v it_o that_o believer_n come_v to_o be_v bear_v under_o iniquity_n vassal_n to_o sin_n slave_n to_o satan_n and_o expose_v to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n whence_o come_v this_o i_o answer_v and_o that_o in_o a_o word_n only_o it_o come_v thus_o by_o their_o first_o father_n adam_n for_o all_o mankind_n be_v in_o adam_n in_o his_o loin_n and_o adam_n in_o innocence_n represent_v all_o mankind_n he_o stand_v as_o a_o parliament_n man_n do_v for_o the_o whole_a country_n for_o all_o that_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o he_o so_o that_o look_v what_o adam_n do_v all_o his_o posterity_n do_v now_o adam_n break_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n eat_v that_o fruit_n god_n have_v forbid_v he_o to_o eat_v off_o he_o break_v this_o commandment_n all_o his_o posterity_n break_v it_o upon_o the_o break_n of_o the_o commandment_n there_o come_v a_o guilt_n upon_o he_o the_o guilt_n that_o come_v upon_o he_o come_v upon_o all_o that_o be_v in_o he_o and_o so_o upon_o all_o mankind_n upon_o the_o guilt_n god_n lay_v a_o punishment_n for_o sin_n what_o be_v that_o to_o withdraw_v that_o image_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n wherein_o he_o be_v create_v and_o to_o leave_v he_o to_o a_o contrary_a image_n of_o unholinesse_n and_o unrighteousness_n that_o be_v the_o punishment_n that_o god_n lay_v upon_o adam_n and_o this_o punishment_n god_n lay_v upon_o all_o the_o posterity_n of_o adam_n because_o they_o be_v as_o true_o guilty_a of_o adam_n sin_n as_o he_o be_v whence_o it_o come_v that_o all_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o adam_n be_v guilty_a of_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n be_v guilty_a of_o that_o the_o punishment_n that_o be_v lay_v upon_o that_o sin_n be_v lay_v upon_o they_o that_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n wherein_o they_o be_v once_o in_o adam_n create_v be_v take_v from_o they_o and_o they_o be_v leave_v to_o a_o contrary_a image_n of_o satan_n a_o image_n of_o unholinesse_n and_o unrighteousness_n whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o they_o be_v all_o bear_v under_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n under_o the_o power_n of_o original_a corruption_n slave_n to_o satan_n and_o the_o object_n of_o divine_a wrath_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o second_o thing_n how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o all_o believer_n be_v under_o all_o iniquity_n the_o three_o thing_n be_v how_o christ_n come_v to_o redeem_v believer_n from_o all_o this_o iniquity_n how_o christ_n by_o give_v of_o himself_o can_v redeem_v believer_n from_o all_o iniquity_n i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v it_o christ_n do_v it_o thus_o because_o that_o which_o bring_v believer_n under_o iniquity_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v be_v the_o break_n of_o god_n law_n christ_n he_o come_v and_o fulfill_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o he_o suffer_v all_o that_o which_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n think_v due_a for_o the_o breach_n of_o his_o law_n and_o so_o christ_n do_v that_o which_o believer_n shall_v have_v do_v namely_o to_o keep_v the_o law_n and_o suffer_v that_o which_o believer_n have_v deserve_v by_o their_o sin_n christ_n do_v and_o suffer_v this_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o believer_n that_o be_v in_o man_n nature_n so_o that_o the_o same_o nature_n that_o sin_v suffer_v the_o same_o nature_n that_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n do_v keep_v the_o law_n in_o christ_n hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o christ_n give_v god_n the_o full_a price_n for_o their_o ransom_n he_o come_v to_o redeem_v they_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o that_o you_o may_v yet_o the_o better_a see_v that_o christ_n by_o this_o act_n of_o he_o give_v himself_o thus_o to_o be_v a_o man_n to_o obey_v all_o the_o law_n and_o to_o suffer_v all_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n due_a to_o sin_n that_o he_o do_v full_o pay_v the_o price_n that_o may_v ransom_n all_o believer_n consider_v but_o in_o brief_a these_o thing_n first_o god_n and_o christ_n make_v a_o compact_n or_o a_o covenant_n together_o god_n offer_v christ_n this_o who_o be_v the_o second_o person_n in_o trinity_n that_o he_o will_v become_v man_n and_o in_o man_n nature_n fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o suffer_v all_o that_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o be_v due_a for_o the_o breach_n of_o this_o law_n god_n promise_v christ_n that_o he_o shall_v acquit_v and_o discharge_v all_o such_o as_o believe_v in_o he_o christ_n he_o agree_v to_o this_o covenant_n and_o undertake_v it_o after_o the_o covenant_n be_v make_v he_o come_v and_o perform_v it_o he_o become_v man_n and_o give_v a_o perfect_a price_n for_o the_o full_a payment_n of_o what_o ever_o be_v due_a god_n abate_v he_o not_o a_o farthing_n the_o uttermost_a farthing_n of_o that_o which_o believer_n be_v condemn_v to_o pay_v he_o pay_v it_o he_o perfect_o keep_v the_o law_n he_o perfect_o suffer_v the_o uttermost_a of_o all_o that_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o be_v due_a to_o sin_n and_o all_o this_o be_v do_v by_o christ_n who_o be_v god_n all_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o second_o person_n in_o trinity_n so_o that_o now_o the_o person_n obey_v the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v infinite_o better_a than_o the_o person_n break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o person_n that_o do_v suffer_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v infinite_o better_a than_o the_o person_n that_o shall_v have_v suffer_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v but_o man_n but_o this_o be_v the_o very_a son_n of_o god_n so_o that_o now_o god_n satisfi_v god_n god_n pay_v the_o ransom_n to_o god_n therefore_o the_o ransom_n can_v but_o be_v complete_a and_o thus_o come_v christ_n by_o give_v of_o himself_o full_o pay_v a_o price_n to_o redeem_v from_o all_o iniquity_n all_o they_o for_o who_o he_o pay_v it_o that_o be_v all_o that_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o it_o
dominion_n over_o you_o for_o the_o understanding_n of_o this_o you_o must_v know_v there_o be_v a_o double_a dominion_n of_o sin_n the_o one_o be_v when_o sin_n reign_v to_o obedience_n the_o other_o be_v when_o sin_n reign_v to_o death_n first_o i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o reign_n or_o dominion_n of_o sin_n to_o obedience_n that_o be_v it_o which_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o 12._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n let_v not_o sin_n reign_v in_o you_o that_o you_o shall_v obey_v it_o in_o the_o lust_n thereof_o this_o dominion_n of_o sin_n be_v when_o as_o sin_n do_v sit_v in_o the_o soul_n as_o a_o king_n sit_v upon_o his_o throne_n and_o command_v the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n and_o all_o the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n as_o a_o lawful_a sovereign_n do_v command_v his_o subject_n the_o other_o reign_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v a_o reign_n unto_o death_n be_v that_o which_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o rom._n 5._o 21._o there_o the_o text_n say_v sin_n have_v reign_v unto_o death_n and_o that_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o power_n that_o sin_n have_v to_o damn_v all_o those_o who_o it_o have_v lord_v it_o over_o now_o both_o these_o be_v mean_v in_o the_o text_n for_o both_o of_o they_o go_v together_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n to_o obedience_n and_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n to_o death_n and_o damnation_n even_o as_o the_o light_n and_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n go_v together_o so_o do_v the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n to_o obedience_n and_o damnation_n go_v together_o wherever_o sin_n reign_v to_o obedience_n that_o be_v wherever_o sin_n be_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n as_o a_o king_n make_v a_o man_n to_o obey_v it_o in_o his_o command_n as_o a_o subject_a do_v his_o prince_n there_o also_o will_v that_o sin_n reign_n to_o the_o damnation_n of_o that_o man_n both_o of_o they_o be_v mean_v in_o the_o word_n so_o then_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n come_v to_o this_o effect_n that_o sin_n shall_v neither_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o to_o obedience_n nor_o to_o damnation_n sin_n shall_v neither_o reign_v over_o you_o to_o make_v you_o obey_v it_o as_o a_o subject_a his_o sovereign_n nor_o to_o damn_v you_o for_o obedience_n of_o it_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o promise_n and_o this_o be_v a_o promise_n that_o be_v make_v to_o all_o believer_n to_o all_o that_o be_v member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o observation_n that_o i_o note_v from_o thence_o be_v thus_o much_o that_o sin_n shall_v never_o reign_v in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n so_o as_o to_o make_v they_o obey_v it_o as_o a_o subject_a their_o king_n nor_o so_o as_o to_o damn_v they_o for_o obey_v of_o it_o the_o point_v you_o s●e_o be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n explain_v sin_n may_v dwell_v with_o a_o child_n of_o god_n and_o sin_n may_v dwell_v in_o a_o child_n of_o god_n rom._n 7._o 17._o it_o be_v no_o more_o i_o but_o sin_n that_o dwell_v in_o i_o but_o sin_n shall_v never_o reign_v over_o a_o child_n of_o god_n neither_o to_o make_v he_o obey_v it_o with_o full_a consent_n of_o will_n as_o a_o servant_n do_v his_o master_n command_n or_o as_o a_o subject_a do_v his_o sovereign_n law_n nor_o yet_o to_o damn_v he_o for_o obey_v of_o it_o thus_o sin_n shall_v never_o reign_v over_o any_o child_n of_o god_n though_o it_o may_v be_v in_o he_o and_o dwell_v with_o he_o yet_o it_o shall_v never_o reign_v over_o he_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o you_o may_v see_v in_o rom._n 6._o 18._o be_v then_o make_v free_a from_o sin_n you_o become_v the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n he_o be_v not_o make_v free_a from_o the_o presence_n of_o sin_n nor_o from_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n for_o saint_n paul_n prosess_v of_o himself_o rom._n 7._o 23._o i_o find_v a_o law_n in_o my_o member_n that_o be_v sin_n rebel_a against_o the_o law_n of_o my_o mind_n that_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o be_v in_o i_o and_o bring_v i_o into_o captivity_n to_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n therefore_o sin_n may_v be_v in_o a_o man_n a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v not_o free_a from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n neither_o but_o how_o then_o be_v he_o free_a from_o sin_n thus_o he_o be_v free_a from_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n sin_n do_v not_o reign_v in_o they_o as_o a_o lord_n and_o king_n sin_n do_v not_o reign_v in_o they_o so_o as_o to_o damn_v they_o for_o it_o this_o be_v that_o also_o in_o luke_n 1._o 74._o 75._o that_o he_o will_v grant_v we_o that_o we_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n may_v serve_v he_o without_o fear_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n observe_v this_o text_n every_o one_o that_o be_v a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n that_o be_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o spiritual_a enemy_n the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o he_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o these_o enemy_n that_o he_o may_v serve_v god_n without_o fear_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n but_o how_o can_v any_o man_n be_v thus_o deliver_v from_o hell_n and_o sin_n and_o the_o devil_n to_o serve_v god_n without_o fear_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n if_o he_o be_v not_o deliver_v from_o the_o reign_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n both_o as_o a_o king_n and_o as_o a_o judge_n to_o damn_v he_o so_o that_o you_o see_v the_o doctrine_n be_v clear_v that_o all_o that_o be_v god_n people_n be_v deliver_v from_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n sin_v neither_o reign_v in_o they_o to_o lord_n it_o over_o they_o nor_o to_o damn_v they_o i_o will_v brief_o give_v you_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o point_n and_o so_o come_v to_o apply_v it_o the_o first_o reason_n why_o all_o god_n child_n be_v deliver_v from_o the_o domnion_n of_o sin_n be_v because_o that_o all_o the_o reign_n of_o sin_n both_o as_o a_o lord_n and_o as_o a_o judge_n both_o to_o damnation_n and_o to_o obedience_n it_o all_o come_v through_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n which_o have_v jest_v we_o thereto_o to_o punish_v all_o sin_n in_o adam_n now_o jesus_n christ_n he_o satisfi_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n he_o appease_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n in_o all_o particular_n wherein_o we_o have_v provoke_v he_o god_n justice_n be_v satisfy_v he_o take_v off_o the_o punishment_n and_o so_o deliver_v his_o people_n for_o who_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v from_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n both_o to_o obedience_n and_o to_o damnation_n this_o then_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n because_o christ_n he_o have_v satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n and_o have_v deliver_v all_o his_o people_n from_o that_o curse_n and_o that_o misery_n that_o lie_v upon_o they_o by_o the_o law_n this_o be_v that_o you_o have_v in_o gal._n 4._o 5._o god_n send_v his_o son_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n make_v under_o the_o law_n to_o redeem_v they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n we_o be_v under_o the_o law_n in_o a_o twofold_a respect_n first_o we_o be_v under_o the_o accidental_a power_n of_o the_o law_n whereby_o the_o law_n through_o our_o corruption_n do_v multiply_v transgression_n in_o our_o soul_n and_o beget_v sin_n upon_o we_o as_o a_o man_n beget_v child_n second_o we_o be_v under_o the_o law_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n the_o law_n curse_v all_o that_o break_v it_o and_o curse_v of_o they_o to_o damnation_n we_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n in_o this_o respect_n now_o christ_n have_v redeem_v all_o his_o child_n from_o under_o the_o law_n in_o both_o these_o respect_n first_o in_o the_o first_o respect_n he_o have_v redeem_v all_o his_o child_n from_o under_o that_o accidental_a power_n of_o the_o law_n where_o by_o the_o law_n have_v power_n through_o our_o corruption_n to_o multiply_v transgression_n upon_o occasion_n of_o every_o commandment_n it_o give_v for_o the_o law_n of_o god_n command_v and_o forbid_v and_o our_o corruption_n be_v strong_a in_o we_o we_o break_v every_o commandment_n and_o so_o the_o law_n occasion_v a_o multiplication_n of_o transgression_n now_o the_o lord_n christ_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o under_o this_o accidental_a power_n of_o the_o law_n in_o some_o measure_n so_o that_o how_o soever_o still_o through_o the_o remainder_n of_o corruption_n the_o law_n occasion_v a_o great_a many_o sin_n in_o we_o because_o it_o command_v and_o we_o do_v not_o obey_v yet_o the_o law_n do_v not_o occasion_n any_o reign_a sin_n because_o there_o be_v nothing_o the_o law_n command_v but_o we_o obey_v it_o in_o some_o measure_n i_o pray_v observe_v it_o they_o love_v the_o law_n of_o god_n they_o strive_v to_o
our_o saviour_n christ_n this_o question_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v to_o work_v the_o work_n of_o god_n how_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o say_v christ_n this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n that_o you_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o he_o have_v send_v there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o come_v to_o work_v god_n work_n to_o obey_v god_n command_n but_o to_o believe_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n

wherein_o god_n judgement_n be_v abroad_o when_o god_n so_o much_o expect_v we_o shall_v grow_v better_a for_o i_o persuade_v myself_o there_o be_v never_o a_o child_n of_o god_n but_o be_v much_o desirous_a to_o be_v more_o obedient_a now_o than_o ever_o now_o in_o these_o evil_a time_n and_o i_o shall_v much_o suspect_v that_o soul_n yet_o to_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n and_o

will_v you_o have_v strength_n to_o obey_v god_n commandment_n better_a than_o ever_o here_o be_v the_o way_n do_v not_o give_v way_n to_o sadness_n and_o dumpishness_n and_o discouragement_n godly_a

this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v strength_n of_o obedience_n lie_v not_o in_o this_o slavish_a fear_n but_o it_o be_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v your_o strength_n get_v the_o joy_n

have_v engage_v himself_o to_o help_v we_o to_o do_v what_o he_o have_v command_v first_o of_o all_o find_v out_o what_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o thou_o shall_v do_v second_o work_v thy_o

he_o by_o his_o promise_n have_v undertake_v to_o make_v thou_o able_a to_o perform_v truth_n it_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v command_v thou_o to_o do_v they_o be_v wonderful_a hard_a even_o impossible_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o to_o thou_o easy_a and_o possible_a because_o god_n have_v undertake_v to_o give_v thou_o strength_n to_o do_v they_o so_o that_o thou_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o be_v encourage_v consider_v the_o power_n of_o god_n the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v with_o thou_o it_o be_v bind_v to_o be_v thou_o by_o his_o promise_n and_o if_o god_n be_v able_a thou_o shall_v obey_v whatsoever_o he_o have_v command_v thou_o so_o thou_o will_v believe_v this_o promise_n and_o use_v the_o mean_n indeed_o i_o grant_v many_o of_o god_n

grant_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o be_v save_v if_o you_o look_v to_o the_o power_n of_o man_n because_o it_o be_v unpossible_a for_o a_o man_n not_o to_o idolise_v some_o
