to_o amplify_v it_o the_o second_o table_n bind_v i_o to_o perform_v all_o testimony_n of_o love_n to_o my_o neighbour_n the_o first_o to_o execute_v all_o office_n of_o piety_n towards_o god_n such_o

of_o our_o brother_n which_o be_v warrant_v by_o that_o rule_n of_o christ_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_v rule_n 2_o the_o second_o rule_n be_v this_o that_o the_o general_a law_n

both_o of_o these_o even_o general_a and_o special_a do_v bind_v the_o conscience_n in_o this_o case_n which_o must_v abraham_n and_o the_o israelite_n chief_o submit_v unto_o to_o the_o special_a he_o must_v attempt_v to_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n notwithstanding_o this_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o murder_n they_o must_v rob_v the_o egyptian_n of_o their_o jewel_n and_o treasure_n notwithstanding_o that_o precept_n thou_o shall_v not_o steal_v why_o because_o the_o special_a have_v at_o that_o time_n more_o power_n over_o the_o conscience_n of_o abraham_n and_o the_o israelite_n then_o the_o general_a conscience_n 2._o how_o the_o judicial_a law_n bind_v the_o conscience_n from_o the_o moral_a to_o come_v to_o the_o judicial_a law_n which_o be_v of_o use_n to_o prescribe_v the_o mosaical_a form_n of_o civil_a government_n concern_v the_o order_n office_n of_o magistrate_n and_o magistracy_n judgement_n punishment_n contract_n difference_n of_o government_n to_o the_o end_n that_o public_a justice_n may_v be_v maintain_v peace_n continue_v and_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n law_n revenge_v this_o law_n so_o far_o bind_v the_o conscience_n now_o as_o it_o

the_o same_o manner_n conscience_n 3._o how_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n bind_v conscience_n three_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n which_o treat_v of_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n enjoin_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o be_v observe_v about_o the_o outward_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v reduce_v to_o three_o distinct_a time_n according_a to_o which_o time_n three_o rule_n may_v be_v give_v to_o show_v how_o far_o forth_o conscience_n be_v subject_a to_o that_o rule_n 1_o the_o first_o rule_n be_v this_o before_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n the_o ceremonial_a law_n do_v bind_v the_o conscience_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o jew_n only_o not_o of_o the_o gentile_n for_o betwixt_o jew_n and_o gentile_n there_o be_v a_o wall_n of_o separation_n rule_n 2_o the_o second_o this_o from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o the_o jewish_a government_n the_o ceremonial_a law_n lose_v the_o force_n of_o bind_v and_o become_v a_o indifferent_a thing_n either_o to_o be_v use_v or_o not_o to_o be_v use_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o paul_n circumcise_v timothy_n but_o will_v not_o circumcise_v titus_n and_o the_o 15._o the_o act._n 15._o council_n at_o jerusalem_n decree_v that_o the_o church_n shall_v abstain_v for_o a_o time_n from_o thing_n strangle_v and_o from_o blood_n the_o cause_n of_o which_o decree_n be_v the_o weakness_n of_o some_o who_o of_o jews_n be_v make_v christian_n as_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o full_o understand_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n therefore_o for_o their_o weakness_n sake_n it_o be_v grant_v that_o they_o may_v use_v some_o jewish_a ceremony_n for_o a_o time_n rule_n 3_o but_o three_o after_o the_o eversion_n of_o the_o jewish_a government_n and_o the_o promulgation_n of_o the_o gospel_n more_o large_o and_o clear_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n altogether_o cease_v for_o from_o that_o time_n the_o liberty_n of_o christian_n and_o freedom_n from_o jewish_a ceremony_n be_v so_o conspicuous_a that_o none_o of_o the_o godly_a can_v allege_v their_o ignorance_n herein_o wherefore_o very_o well_o say_v the_o school_n mortiferae_fw-la school_n leges_fw-la ceremoniales_fw-la iam_fw-la

how_o the_o gospel_n bind_v now_o we_o will_v see_v how_o the_o gospel_n bind_v the_o conscience_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o which_o we_o must_v know_v that_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o bind_v the_o conscience_n of_o those_o that_o be_v not_o
