we_o come_v to_o be_v the_o several_a argument_n he_o bring_v in_o p._n 53._o to_o prove_v circumcision_n only_o a_o seal_n to_o abraham_n answer_v i._n first_o because_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o it_o seal_v abraham_n have_v it_o before_o the_o seal_n be_v give_v but_o his_o posterity_n can_v not_o be_v say_v to_o believe_v at_o eight_o day_n old_a therefore_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o he_o and_o not_o to_o they_o a._n the_o seal_n be_v not_o annex_v to_o abraham_n faith_n as_o abraham_n but_o to_o god_n covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n so_o that_o what_o it_o seal_v to_o abraham_n be_v as_o he_o be_v a_o heir_n of_o the_o same_o promise_n with_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n heb._n 11.9_o therefore_o what_o it_o seal_v to_o he_o as_o a_o heir_n it_o seal_v to_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o so_o to_o all_o believer_n as_o coheir_n of_o the_o same_o inheritance_n heb._n 6.17_o 2._o if_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n only_o than_o it_o must_v be_v either_o as_o it_o be_v a_o weak_a faith_n or_o strong_a faith_n 1_o it_o can_v not_o be_v the_o first_o because_o abraham_n faith_n be_v by_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o to_o be_v weak_a rom._n 4.19_o 20._o 2._o if_o it_o have_v be_v give_v as_o a_o badge_n of_o honour_n to_o abraham_n faith_n as_o i_o have_v see_v it_o affirm_v in_o a_o piece_n or_o c._n b._n as_o a_o strong_a faith_n than_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v give_v to_o adam_n and_o noah_n who_o have_v as_o strong_a faith_n as_o abraham_n and_o less_o gospel-light_n than_o abraham_n have_v to_o work_v it_o 3._o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o have_v abraham_n justification_n seal_v more_o than_o adam_n seth_n noah_n or_o any_o of_o his_o predecessor_n especial_o if_o it_o be_v consider_v what_o m._n p._n himself_o grant_v that_o he_o be_v justify_v twenty_o four_o year_n before_o this_o seal_n be_v give_v therefore_o 4._o have_v it_o not_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o isaac_n as_o well_o as_o to_o abraham_n and_o so_o not_o only_o a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n it_o may_v have_v be_v give_v upon_o the_o birth_n of_o ishmael_n and_o abraham_n need_v not_o have_v stay_v for_o a_o son_n of_o promise_n for_o it_o will_v have_v seal_v as_o much_o then_o to_o abraham_n as_o it_o do_v after_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o covenant-seal_a 5._o have_v it_o not_o be_v a_o seal_n to_o isaac_n and_o so_o a_o part_n of_o the_o covenant_n than_o isaac_n not_o be_v circumcise_v have_v be_v no_o breach_n of_o the_o covenant_n direct_o against_o that_o place_n gen._n 17.10_o for_o a_o seal_n the_o apostle_n call_v it_o and_o a_o sign_n god_n call_v it_o so_o that_o have_v it_o only_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o abraham_n faith_n the_o covenant_n have_v not_o come_v seal_v to_o isaac_n because_o the_o seal_n reach_v only_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n and_o when_o he_o die_v the_o seal_n be_v break_v off_o therefore_o 6._o it_o be_v a_o clear_a truth_n that_o as_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v make_v to_o abraham_n by_o promise_n and_o to_o his_o seed_n so_o god_n main_a drift_n be_v to_o make_v those_o covenant-blessing_n sure_a to_o all_o the_o heir_n of_o promise_n heb._n 6.17_o he_o therefore_o deal_v as_o a_o man_n that_o will_v be_v believe_v first_o he_o promise●_n second_o he_o swear_v to_o confirm_v that_o promise_n three_o he_o seal_v what_o he_o have_v promise_v so_o the_o seal_n become_v the_o covenant-seal_a as_o the_o oath_n be_v the_o covenant_n oath_n and_o what_o god_n promise_v to_o abraham_n he_o promise_v to_o his_o seed_n and_o what_o he_o confirm_v by_o oath_n to_o abraham_n he_o confirm_v to_o his_o
