be_v under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n proper_o so_o call_v the_o lord_n christ_n only_o except_v therefore_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n to_o affirm_v that_o all_o man_n which_o be_v not_o true_a believer_n be_v under_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o out_o of_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n for_o we_o see_v prove_v at_o large_a that_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n pardon_v to_o all_o mankind_n eternal_a death_n due_a to_o they_o for_o adam_n one_o offence_n and_o that_o every_o man_n be_v bear_v with_o the_o internal_a light_n of_o christ_n in_o he_o and_o have_v reduce_v the_o total_a nature_n of_o sin_n to_o a_o seed_n and_o also_o god_n have_v give_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n to_o strive_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o man_n to_o keep_v that_o seed_n of_o original_a sin_n from_o the_o acquire_v habit_n if_o man_n will_v be_v faithful_a in_o their_o little_a and_o to_o increase_v the_o internal_a light_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o and_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o and_o to_o keep_v they_o into_o the_o say_a posture_n that_o they_o may_v receive_v his_o gift_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o the_o former_a doctrine_n be_v a_o great_a mistake_n second_o be_v it_o so_o that_o this_o rule_n the_o gospel_n tenor_n be_v the_o only_a and_o alone_o suitable_a rule_n for_o all_o man_n to_o work_v in_o reference_n to_o their_o eternal_a happiness_n then_o hence_o observe_v if_o any_o man_n desire_n or_o expect_v union_n with_o god_n in_o point_n of_o blessedness_n it_o must_v only_o be_v by_o his_o work_n in_o the_o say_a posture_n because_o only_o by_o the_o reception_n of_o the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n wrap_v up_o in_o christ_n righteousness_n impute_v man_n come_v to_o god_n the_o fountain_n of_o life_n for_o so_o christ_n be_v only_o the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n therefore_o those_o fantastic_a man_n which_o dream_v of_o a_o union_n with_o the_o divine_a essence_n have_v a_o union_n indeed_o but_o not_o in_o their_o sense_n for_o only_o this_o union_n they_o have_v namely_o that_o they_o live_v and_o move_v and_o have_v their_o be_v in_o god_n as_o have_v all_o creature_n as_o such_o and_o so_o have_v the_o apostate_n angel_n and_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n but_o not_o that_o union_n which_o they_o dream_v of_o namely_o a_o union_n in_o the_o divine_a essence_n essencial_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o therefore_o as_o they_o reject_v all_o ordinance_n so_o their_o operation_n in_o this_o posture_n according_a to_o the_o say_v suitable_a rule_n and_o yet_o the_o text_n which_o affirm_v we_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n show_v wherein_o it_o consist_v namely_o by_o operation_n and_o working_n according_a to_o this_o rule_n to_o suppress_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o original_a sin_n for_o say_v the_o text_n we_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n in_o that_o we_o fly_v the_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n through_o lust_n and_o this_o sin_n and_o lust_n we_o come_v to_o know_v by_o the_o law_n that_o be_v the_o gospel_n which_o be_v once_o under_o a_o vail_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n i_o have_v not_o not_o know_v sin_n except_o the_o law_n have_v say_v thou_o shall_v not_o lust_n now_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o blasphemous_a error_n be_v this_o these_o man_n fancy_v to_o themselves_o that_o the_o creation_n be_v eternal_a that_o be_v without_o beginning_n or_o end_n and_o themselves_o be_v a_o part_n thereof_o be_v therefore_o eternal_a yea_o god_n himself_o all_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o sacred_a oracle_n of_o god_n for_o it_o positive_o affirm_v the_o world_n have_v a_o beginning_n it_o shall_v have_v a_o end_n and_o god_n will_n according_a to_o his_o sacred_a oracle_n as_o he_o shake_v the_o wicked_a out_o of_o the_o corner_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o jobe_n speak_v so_o will_v he_o shake_v and_o make_v these_o man_n vessel_n of_o dishonour_n in_o torment_n to_o eternity_n according_a to_o the_o justice_n of_o this_o rule_n of_o mercy_n which_o they_o now_o despise_v and_o he_o will_v laugh_v when_o their_o fear_n come_v to_o their_o destruction_n if_o they_o return_v not_o in_o to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o say_a posture_n in_o time_n therefore_o let_v all_o man_n beware_v of_o these_o man_n fancy_n and_o what_o god_n say_v in_o his_o word_n we_o must_v believe_v it_o or_o else_o do_v worse_o for_o the_o scripture_n speak_v in_o this_o tone_n to_o man_n from_o god_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n as_o do_v the_o prophet_n in_o old_a time_n imply_v what_o god_n say_v in_o his_o word_n we_o must_v believe_v it_o and_o so_o rest_n and_o if_o we_o believe_v the_o lord_n and_o his_o prophet_n we_o shall_v sure_o prosper_v again_o three_o be_v it_o so_o that_o this_o be_v the_o only_a rule_n suitable_a to_o all_o man_n as_o be_v prove_v hence_o observe_v this_o rule_n point_v we_o unto_o a_o twofold_a righteousness_n the_o first_o be_v the_o rectitude_n of_o man_n internal_a intention_n and_o external_a operation_n by_o the_o force_n of_o which_o man_n right_o receive_v the_o say_a gift_n of_o life_n and_o this_o righteousness_n be_v call_v in_o scripeure_n sanctification_n the_o second_o righteousness_n be_v this_o when_o man_n by_o the_o say_a rectitude_n have_v believe_o receive_v god_n gift_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n impute_v and_o because_o in_o that_o righteousness_n be_v include_v life_n eternal_a 4._o rom._n 4._o and_o acceptance_n with_o god_n therefore_o this_o righteousness_n so_o receive_v be_v call_v our_o justification_n therefore_o let_v no_o man_n presume_v to_o be_v acceptable_a with_o god_n for_o his_o own_o operation_n in_o the_o say_a posture_n that_o be_v for_o work_n as_o work_n as_o do_v the_o jew_n before_o mention_v for_o if_o we_o do_v it_o be_v true_a we_o may_v rejoice_v in_o ourselves_o but_o not_o in_o god_n no_o more_o than_o can_v abraham_n if_o he_o have_v be_v of_o this_o opinion_n as_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v four_o be_v it_o so_o that_o god_n make_v all_o man_n good_a or_o bad_a according_a to_o their_o work_n vessel_n of_o honour_n or_o dishonour_n as_o be_v prove_v and_o as_o will_n more_o appear_v in_o the_o next_o chapter_n then_o hence_o observe_v that_o the_o absolute_a power_n and_o

to_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o to_o repel_v this_o their_o design_n in_o that_o particular_a branch_n it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n thus_o strive_v with_o all_o man_n and_o for_o this_o end_n we_o see_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n be_v elect_v to_o be_v christ_n the_o lord_n and_o second_o adam_n and_o for_o this_o end_n god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v

the_o second_o use_n be_v this_o that_o god_n will_v never_o revoke_v that_o pardon_n of_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n namely_o eternal_a death_n due_a to_o all_o mankind_n for_o adam_n one_o
