this_o be_v whole_o from_o moses_n and_o can_v be_v no_o other_o way_n and_o this_o be_v further_a evident_a by_o james_n chap._n 2._o 8_o 10._o in_o his_o epistle_n which_o be_v general_a and_o so_o to_o gentile_n convert_v as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o jew_n now_o mark_v those_o two_o expression_n v_o 8._o if_o you_o fulfil_v the_o royal_a law_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n that_o be_v of_o moses_n where_o the_o second_o table_n contain_v our_o love_n to_o our_o neighbour_n and_o then_o v_o 10._o he_o that_o say_v do_v not_o commit_v adultery_n say_v also_o do_v not_o kill_v where_o you_o see_v he_o make_v the_o argument_n not_o in_o the_o matter_n but_o in_o the_o author_n who_o be_v god_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n and_o if_o you_o say_v why_o shall_v these_o commandment_n reach_v to_o they_o i_o answer_v because_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v show_v in_o answer_v the_o objection_n against_o this_o truth_n the_o jew_n and_o we_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o people_n observe_v that_o place_n 1_o cor._n 10._o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o the_o corinthian_n say_v our_o father_n be_v all_o baptize_v unto_o moses_n in_o the_o cloud_n and_o sea_n etc._n etc._n now_o how_o can_v this_o be_v true_a of_o the_o corinthian_n but_o only_o because_o since_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o the_o three_o argument_n be_v from_o the_o obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o keep_v the_o 3._o sabbath_n day_n this_o be_v a_o full_a argument_n to_o i_o that_o the_o moral_a law_n give_v by_o moses_n do_v bind_v we_o christian_n for_o suppose_v that_o opinion_n which_o be_v abundant_o prove_v by_o the_o orthodox_n that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v perpetual_a and_o that_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n we_o can_v then_o but_o gather_v that_o the_o commandment_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n do_v bind_v we_o for_o here_o their_o distinction_n will_v not_o hold_v of_o bind_v ratione_fw-la materiae_fw-la by_o reason_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o ratione_fw-la ministerii_fw-la by_o reason_n of_o the_o ministry_n for_o the_o seven_o day_n can_v bind_v from_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o nature_n why_o the_o seven_o rather_o then_o the_o five_o shall_v oblige_v but_o only_o from_o the_o mere_a command_n of_o god_n for_o that_o day_n and_o yet_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o jewish_n seven_o day_n as_o the_o learned_a show_n in_o that_o controversy_n now_o then_o those_o that_o deny_v the_o law_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o we_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n at_o the_o best_a but_o from_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o new-testament_n and_o not_o from_o the_o four_o command_n at_o all_o and_o howsoever_o it_o be_v no_o argument_n to_o build_v upon_o yet_o all_o church_n have_v keep_v the_o moral_a law_n with_o the_o preface_n to_o it_o and_o have_v it_o in_o their_o catechism_n as_o suppose_v it_o to_o belong_v unto_o we_o and_o when_o those_o profane_a opinion_n and_o licentious_a doctrine_n come_v up_o against_o the_o sabbath_n day_n do_v not_o all_o learned_a and_o sound_a man_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o take_v away_o one_o of_o the_o commandment_n therefore_o that_o distinction_n of_o they_o the_o moral_a law_n bind_v as_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n but_o not_o as_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n do_v no_o way_n hold_v for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n can_v be_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o determinate_a time_n but_o have_v its_o morality_n and_o perpetuity_n from_o the_o mere_a positive_a commandment_n of_o god_n the_o four_o argument_n from_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v very_o incongruous_a 4._o to_o have_v a_o temporary_a obligation_n upon_o a_o perpetual_a duty_n how_o probable_a can_v it_o be_v that_o god_n deliver_v the_o law_n by_o moses_n shall_v intend_v a_o temporary_a obligation_n only_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v perpetualy_a as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v thus_o order_v you_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o till_o moses_n his_o time_n you_o shall_v not_o murder_v or_o commit_v adultery_n but_o till_o his_o ministry_n last_v and_o then_o that_o obligation_n must_v cease_v and_o a_o new_a obligation_n come_v upon_o you_o why_o shall_v we_o conceive_v that_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v necessary_a and_o perpetual_a god_n will_v alter_v and_o change_v the_o obligation_n none_o can_v give_v a_o probable_a reason_n for_o any_o such_o alteration_n indeed_o that_o they_o shall_v circumcise_v or_o offer_v sacrifice_n till_o moses_n ministry_n last_v only_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o be_v give_v &_o thus_o austin_n well_o answer_v porphyrius_n that_o object_v god_n be_v worship_v otherways_o in_o the_o old-testament_n then_o in_o the_o new_a that_o be_v no_o matter_n say_v austin_n if_o that_o which_o be_v worship_v be_v the_o true_a object_n though_o it_o be_v worship_v divers_a wave_n when_o appoint_v by_o he_o no_o more_o than_o when_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v pronounce_v in_o divers_a language_n the_o five_o argument_n if_o the_o law_n by_o moses_n do_v not_o bind_v we_o than_o 5._o the_o explication_n of_o it_o by_o the_o other_o prophet_n do_v not_o also_o belong_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o moses_n in_o other_o place_n do_v explain_v this_o law_n and_o david_n psalm_n and_o solomon_n proverb_n as_o also_o the_o prophecy_n of_o the_o prophet_n so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v moral_a be_v nothing_o but_o explication_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n now_o what_o a_o wide_a door_n will_v here_o be_v open_a to_o overthrow_v the_o old-testament_n if_o i_o bring_v that_o place_n deut._n 32._o 46._o set_v your_o heart_n upon_o these_o word_n which_o i_o testify_v to_o you_o this_o day_n because_o it_o be_v

as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o oblige_a force_n of_o it_o this_o be_v plain_o to_o overthrow_v the_o old-testament_n now_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o be_v the_o chief_a argument_n which_o 1._o they_o bring_v for_o the_o support_n of_o this_o opinion_n that_o the_o law_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n do_v not_o bind_v christian_n and_o first_o they_o urge_v the_o preface_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n which_o bring_v thou_o out_o of_o egypt_n this_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o because_o we_o nor_o our_o father_n ever_o be_v in_o egypt_n &_o say_v they_o further_o the_o temporal_a promise_n to_o keep_v the_o law_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o therefore_o ephes_n chap._n 6_o 2._o when_o paul_n urge_v that_o commandment_n with_o promise_n he_o do_v not_o keep_v to_o the_o promise_n particular_o that_o thy_o life_n may_v be_v long_o in_o the_o land_n the_o lord_n thy_o god_n shall_v give_v thou_o but_o speak_v general_o first_o by_o add_v something_o that_o it_o may_v be_v well_o with_o thou_o which_o be_v not_o in_o the_o first_o promise_n &_o then_o second_o by_o detract_n say_v only_o that_o thou_o may_v live_v long_o upon_o the_o earth_n in_o general_n now_o to_o the_o preface_n some_o answer_n thus_o that_o we_o may_v be_v say_v 1._o literal_o to_o be_v in_o egypt_n and_o they_o go_v upon_o this_o ground_n that_o we_o be_v make_v one_o with_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o they_o bring_v the_o eleven_o of_o the_o roman_n to_o prove_v this_o where_o the_o gentile_n be_v say_v to_o be_v graff_v in_o so_o that_o they_o become_v of_o the_o same_o stock_n and_o it_o be_v plane_n that_o the_o believer_n be_v abraham_n seed_n and_o then_o by_o this_o interpretation_n whatsoever_o mercy_n be_v vouchsafe_v unto_o they_o we_o be_v to_o account_v it_o as_o we_o this_o can_v well_o be_v reject_v but_o yet_o i_o shall_v not_o pitch_v upon_o this_o other_o therefore_o they_o say_v 2._o that_o this_o bondage_n be_v typical_a of_o our_o spiritual_a bondage_n and_o the_o deliverance_n out_o of_o it_o be_v typical_a of_o our_o deliverance_n from_o hell_n but_o this_o be_v not_o so_o literal_a a_o interpretation_n as_o i_o desire_v though_o i_o think_v

if_o the_o antinomist_n in_o all_o their_o book_n and_o sermon_n while_o they_o set_v up_o grace_n and_o the_o gospel_n will_v make_v to_o themselves_o this_o objection_n with_o paul_n do_v we_o then_o make_v void_a the_o law_n god_n forbid_v certain_o if_o you_o take_v away_o the_o condemn_a power_n and_o the_o command_a power_n of_o the_o law_n there_o will_v not_o so_o much_o remain_v of_o it_o as_o do_v of_o jezebels_n corpse_n when_o the_o dog_n have_v gnaw_v it_o therefore_o stand_v fast_o indeed_o in_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o study_v again_o and_o again_o whether_o that_o be_v gospel-liberty_n or_o profane_a licence_n that_o thou_o plead_v for_o certain_o he_o that_o set_v up_o the_o gospel_n in_o a_o scripture_n way_n and_o not_o a_o fancy-way_n will_v go_v no_o further_o than_o the_o bound_n of_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o use_v gospel-grace_n as_o a_o cloak_n for_o thy_o more_o secure_a and_o loose_a walk_v i_o tell_v thou_o there_o be_v a_o great_a

all_o family_n duty_n but_o now_o i_o understand_v my_o liberty_n better_o oh_o know_v this_o be_v a_o gospel_n of_o thy_o own_o make_n freegrace_n of_o thy_o own_o mint_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n may_v by_o the_o devil_n be_v keep_v among_o the_o tomb_n as_o that_o demoniac_a be_v in_o sad_a thought_n and_o slavish_a fear_n which_o be_v opposite_a to_o the_o promise_n i_o grant_v also_o that_o a_o minister_n may_v as_o unreasonable_o press_v the_o law_n upon_o some_o humble_a christian_n as_o if_o the_o samaritan_n have_v take_v salt_n instead_o of_o oil_n and_o pour_v it_o into_o the_o wound_n of_o that_o man_n of_o jericho_n but_o for_o all_o this_o the_o unskilfulness_n of_o the_o physician_n may_v not_o derogate_v from_o the_o medicine_n and_o as_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o the_o law_n may_v be_v unreasonable_o preach_v so_o also_o there_o may_v be_v a_o time_n when_o the_o promise_n shall_v not_o be_v press_v 2._o then_o be_v the_o gospel_n or_o grace_v set_v up_o contrary_a to_o the_o law_n when_o christian_n be_v whole_o take_v off_o from_o humiliation_n for_o sin_n or_o from_o the_o threaten_n that_o be_v in_o the_o law_n what_o a_o dangerous_a expression_n be_v that_o of_o a_o antinomian_a that_o the_o law_n have_v no_o more_o to_o do_v with_o a_o believer_n than_o the_o law_n of_o spain_n or_o france_n with_o a_o englishman_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o ordinary_a even_o in_o the_o new-testament_n then_o to_o awaken_v believer_n with_o sad_a and_o severe_a threaten_n take_v heed_n therefore_o lest_o that_o condition_n which_o thou_o so_o bless_v thyself_o in_o by_o gospel_n light_n be_v not_o worse_o and_o more_o dangerous_a then_o that_o wherein_o thou_o groan_v under_o the_o law_n i_o speak_v not_o this_o as_o if_o the_o people_n of_o god_n ought_v not_o to_o seek_v for_o a_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n and_o to_o strive_v for_o a_o evangelicall_n temper_n which_o certain_o be_v most_o heavenly_a and_o holy_a but_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o temptation_n and_o be_v drink_v with_o this_o sweet_a wine_n let_v therefore_o from_o hence_o both_o minister_n and_o people_n make_v a_o harmonious_a accord_n of_o the_o law_n and_o gospel_n in_o their_o practical_a observation_n if_o on_o the_o mount_n of_o transfiguration_n christ_n be_v in_o glory_n and_o moses_n in_o glory_n and_o yet_o both_o together_o without_o any_o opposition_n so_o may_v the_o law_n be_v a_o glorious_a law_n and_o the_o gospel_n a_o glorious_a gospel_n in_o thy_o use_n and_o to_o thy_o apprehension_n lecture_n xvii_o exod._n 20._o 1._o and_o god_n speak_v all_o these_o word_n say_v etc._n etc._n we_o have_v already_o consider_v those_o historical_a observation_n which_o be_v in_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o law_n and_o improve_v they_o to_o the_o dignity_n and_o excellency_n thereof_o i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o handle_n of_o those_o question_n which_o make_v much_o to_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o truth_n about_o ithat_o be_v now_o doubt_v of_o and_o first_o of_o all_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v to_o what_o purpose_n be_v this_o discourse_n about_o the_o law_n give_v by_o moses_n be_v we_o jew_n do_v that_o belong_v to_o we_o have_v not_o christ_n abolish_v the_o law_n be_v not_o moses_n with_o his_o ministry_n now_o at_o a_o end_n it_o be_v therefore_o worth_a the_o inquiry_n whether_o the_o ten_o commandment_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n do_v belong_v to_o we_o christian_n or_o no_o and_o in_o the_o answer_n of_o this_o question_n i_o will_v lay_v down_o some_o proposition_n by_o way_n of_o preface_n and_o then_o bring_v argument_n for_o the_o affirmative_a first_o therefore_o though_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v that_o the_o moral_a christian_n law_n as_o give_v by_o moses_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o we_o christian_n yet_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o antinomian_o will_v not_o hold_v for_o there_o be_v some_o learned_a and_o solid_a divine_n as_o zanchy_a and_o rivet_v and_o many_o papist_n as_o suarez_n and_o medina_n which_o hold_v the_o law_n as_o deliver_v by_o moses_n not_o to_o belong_v to_o we_o and_o yet_o be_v express_o against_o antinomist_n for_o they_o say_v that_o howsoever_o the_o law_n do_v not_o bind_v under_o that_o notion_n as_o mosaical_a yet_o it_o bind_v because_o it_o be_v confirm_v by_o christ_n so_o that_o although_o the_o first_o obligation_n cease_v and_o we_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o moses_n now_o yet_o the_o second_o obligation_n which_o come_v by_o christ_n be_v still_o upon_o we_o and_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o overthrow_v the_o antinomian_a who_o plead_v for_o the_o total_a abrogation_n of_o the_o law_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o if_o this_o shall_v be_v grant_v yet_o the_o law_n shall_v be_v keep_v up_o in_o its_o full_a vigour_n and_o force_n as_o much_o as_o if_o it_o be_v continue_v by_o moses_n but_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o position_n go_v upon_o a_o false_a ground_n as_o if_o our_o saviour_n matth._n 5._o do_v there_o take_v away_o the_o obligation_n by_o moses_n and_o put_v a_o new_a sanction_n upon_o it_o by_o his_o own_o authority_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v the_o law_n shall_v no_o long_o bind_v you_o as_o it_o be_v moses_n his_o law_n but_o as_o it_o be_v i_o now_o this_o seem_v to_o overthrow_v the_o whole_a scope_n of_o our_o saviour_n which_o be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o do_v not_o come_v to_o destroy_v the_o law_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v a_o new_a lawgiver_n but_o a_o interpreter_n of_o the_o old_a law_n by_o moses_n this_o i_o intend_v to_o handle_v god_n willing_a in_o that_o question_n whether_o christ_n have_v appoint_v any_o new_a duty_n that_o be_v not_o in_o the_o law_n before_o only_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o clear_a that_o our_o saviour_n there_o do_v but_o interpret_v the_o old_a law_n and_o vindicate_v it_o from_o corrupt_a gloss_n and_o not_o either_o make_v a_o new_a law_n or_o intend_v a_o new_a confirmation_n of_o the_o old_a law_n second_o consider_v in_o what_o sense_n we_o say_v that_o the_o law_n do_v bind_v we_o in_o regard_n of_o moses_n and_o first_o this_o may_v be_v understand_v reduplicative_o as_o if_o it_o do_v moses_n bind_v because_o of_o moses_n so_o that_o whatsoeveer_n be_v of_o moses_n his_o ministry_n do_v belong_v to_o we_o and_o this_o be_v very_o false_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a current_n of_o scripture_n for_o then_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n will_v also_o bind_v we_o because_o à_fw-la quatenus_fw-la ad_fw-la omne_fw-la valet_fw-la consequentia_fw-la so_o that_o you_o must_v not_o understand_v it_o in_o this_o sense_n second_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o thus_o that_o moses_n as_o a_o penman_n bind_v of_o the_o scripture_n write_v this_o down_o for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n do_v by_o this_o intend_v good_a to_o christian_n in_o the_o new-testament_n and_o this_o can_v be_v well_o deny_v by_o any_o that_o do_v hold_v the_o old-testament_n do_v belong_v to_o christian_n for_o why_o shall_v not_o the_o book_n of_o moses_n belong_v to_o we_o as_o well_o as_o the_o book_n of_o the_o prophet_n three_o therefore_o we_o may_v understand_v it_o thus_o that_o god_n when_o he_o give_v the_o ten_o commandment_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n though_o they_o be_v the_o present_a subject_n to_o who_o he_o perpetual_o speak_v yet_o he_o do_v intend_v a_o obligation_n by_o these_o law_n not_o only_o upon_o the_o jew_n but_o also_o all_o other_o nation_n that_o shall_v be_v convert_v and_o come_v to_o

his_o opinion_n be_v true_a but_o of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n who_o have_v corrupt_v the_o text_n with_o their_o false_a gloss_n i_o will_v not_o consider_v his_o other_o reason_n for_o they_o be_v so_o weak_a that_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v afraid_a of_o they_o and_o certain_o it_o will_v be_v strange_a divinity_n to_o say_v that_o a_o jew_n may_v have_v lust_v after_o a_o woman_n in_o his_o heart_n and_o not_o have_v sin_v but_o now_o it_o will_v be_v sin_n in_o a_o christian_n the_o second_o particular_a difference_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n hence_o the_o scripture_n speak_v as_o if_o they_o have_v under_o the_o old_a law_n testament_n none_o at_o all_o mere_o because_o there_o be_v not_o such_o a_o plentiful_a effusion_n of_o his_o spirit_n upon_o they_o not_o but_o that_o if_o we_o consider_v some_o particular_a person_n they_o may_v have_v such_o degree_n of_o grace_n that_o few_o under_o the_o gospel_n can_v be_v compare_v unto_o they_o as_o abraham_n and_o david_n but_o this_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a dispensation_n of_o his_o grace_n then_o so_o that_o as_o one_o star_n differ_v from_o another_o in_o glory_n thus_o do_v the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n from_o that_o of_o christian_n they_o have_v drop_n but_o we_o have_v the_o fountain_n they_o have_v glimmering_n but_o we_o have_v the_o sun_n itself_o now_o as_o these_o be_v privilege_n so_o they_o be_v also_o great_a engagement_n for_o more_o eminent_a knowledge_n and_o holiness_n than_o be_v in_o those_o day_n but_o all_o that_o the_o prophet_n reprove_v in_o their_o people_n ignorance_n self_n confidence_n rest_v upon_o external_a duty_n etc._n etc._n the_o same_o may_v we_o in_o our_o hearer_n gospel_n 3._o their_o condition_n be_v more_o servile_a all_o thing_n do_v press_v more_o to_o fear_v and_o bondage_n than_o now_o among_o we_o hence_o the_o apostle_n gal._n 4._o 30._o compare_v their_o condition_n to_o the_o son_n of_o the_o bondwoman_n hence_o austin_n make_v timor_fw-la and_o amor_n the_o difference_n of_o the_o two_o testament_n god_n meet_v man_n sin_v in_o the_o law_n as_o he_o do_v adam_n with_o terror_n charge_v sin_n upon_o he_o but_o under_o the_o gospel_n as_o the_o father_n do_v the_o prodigal_a son_n come_v home_n to_o he_o see_v heb._n 12._o this_o difference_n consider_v by_o paul_n you_o be_v not_o come_v to_o mount_n sinai_n etc._n etc._n only_o you_o must_v right_o understand_v this_o the_o jew_n have_v a_o two_o fold_v consideration_n one_o as_o be_v servile_a and_o another_o of_o they_o as_o son_n but_o under_o age_n so_o that_o they_o be_v not_o whole_o exclude_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n yea_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o the_o promise_n and_o adoption_n do_v belong_v unto_o thom_n and_o david_n do_v appropriate_a god_n unto_o himself_o as_o his_o god_n in_o his_o prayer_n which_o argue_v he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n enable_v he_o to_o call_v abba_n father_n now_o as_o they_o be_v more_o obnoxious_a to_o a_o inward_a bondage_n so_o they_o be_v under_o a_o outward_a bondage_n also_o opposite_a unto_o which_o be_v that_o christian_a liberty_n paul_n speak_v of_o whereby_o the_o yoke_n of_o all_o those_o ceremonious_a burden_n be_v take_v off_o they_o and_o paul_n do_v vehement_o and_o fervid_o dispute_v against_o those_o that_o will_v introduce_v they_o in_o the_o assert_v of_o this_o difference_n one_o scruple_n be_v to_o be_v remove_v which_o be_v this_o how_o can_v the_o jew_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o more_o servitude_n than_o the_o christian_n mere_o because_o of_o those_o ceremony_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o see_v they_o be_v command_v by_o god_n and_o have_v spiritual_a signification_n they_o do_v thereby_o become_v help_n unto_o their_o faith_n and_o be_v exercise_n of_o their_o piety_n as_o under_o the_o gospel_n none_o can_v say_v that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v a_o burden_n and_o tend_v to_o bondage_n because_o they_o be_v visible_a sign_n but_o rather_o god_n do_v hereby_o condescend_v in_o his_o great_a love_n unto_o we_o for_o as_o chrysostome_n observe_v if_o we_o have_v be_v incorporeal_a god_n will_v not_o then_o have_v appoint_v visible_a sacrament_n no_o more_o than_o he_o do_v to_o angel_n but_o now_o consist_v of_o soul_n and_o body_n he_o do_v institute_v some_o thing_n in_o a_o accommodate_v way_n to_o help_v we_o and_o to_o promote_v our_o faith_n but_o this_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o although_o they_o be_v spiritual_a in_o signification_n yet_o they_o be_v many_o and_o require_v much_o bodily_a labour_n they_o can_v not_o be_v observe_v without_o much_o difficulty_n and_o therefore_o no_o priest_n or_o levite_n that_o be_v spiritual_o mind_v in_o those_o day_n but_o will_v rather_o choose_v to_o exercise_v the_o ministry_n under_o the_o gospel_n then_o to_o busy_v himself_o in_o the_o kill_n of_o beast_n and_o flay_v of_o they_o which_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o do_v therefore_o well_o do_v austin_n observe_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o appoint_v for_o we_o sacrament_n few_o in_o number_n easy_a in_o observation_n and_o more_o clear_a in_o signification_n again_o those_o bodily_a exercise_n do_v rather_o fit_v those_o that_o be_v child_n and_o be_v more_o convenient_a to_o that_o low_a condition_n then_o unto_o the_o full_a age_n of_o the_o church_n and_o sacrament_n though_o they_o be_v a_o help_n yet_o they_o suppose_v some_o imbecility_n in_o the_o subject_n therefore_o in_o heaven_n there_o shall_v be_v none_o at_o all_o only_o take_v notice_n that_o popery_n have_v introduce_v so_o many_o ceremonious_a observation_n and_o such_o a_o multitude_n of_o church-precept_n have_v make_v the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v the_o time_n of_o none-age_n again_o this_o also_o discover_v that_o such_o be_v not_o spiritual_a that_o delight_n in_o ceremonial_a way_n and_o the_o more_o man_n fix_v their_o heart_n upon_o sensible_a observation_n the_o less_o they_o partake_v of_o spiritual_a i_o will_v instance_n but_o in_o a_o four_o because_o these_o difference_n be_v give_v by_o most_o that_o treat_v on_o this_o subject_n and_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o christ_n continuance_n and_o abode_n of_o it_o the_o law_n in_o that_o mosaical_a administration_n be_v to_o endure_v but_o till_o christ_n the_o fullness_n come_v and_o then_o as_o

any_o good_a and_o spiritual_a effect_n it_o behove_v therefore_o that_o a_o christ_n shall_v be_v exhibit_v which_o will_v work_v all_o those_o spiritual_a mercy_n for_o we_o hence_o have_v there_o
