duty_n namely_o those_o which_o be_v comprehend_v under_o those_o two_o great_a commandment_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o our_o neighbour_n in_o the_o christian_a religion_n there_o be_v very_o little_a that_o be_v mere_o positive_a and_o institute_v beside_o the_o two_o sacrament_n and_o pray_v to_o god_n in_o the_o name_n and_o mediation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n 2._o the_o most_o perfect_a

of_o moral_a duty_n it_o discover_v our_o duty_n more_o clear_o to_o we_o it_o offer_v we_o the_o great_a assistance_n to_o enable_v we_o to_o the_o performance_n of_o it_o it_o present_v we_o with_o the_o most_o powerful_a motive_n and_o argument_n to_o engage_v we_o thereto_o so_o that_o this_o revelation_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v so_o far_o from_o weaken_v the_o obligation_n of_o natural_a duty_n that_o it_o confirm_v and_o strengthen_v it_o and_o urge_v we_o more_o forcible_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o 3._o the_o positive_a rite_n and_o institution_n of_o reveal_v religion_n

in_o competition_n it_o be_v the_o declare_a will_n of_o god_n that_o positive_a institution_n shall_v give_v way_n to_o natural_a duty_n and_o this_o i_o have_v show_v to_o be_v plain_o the_o meaning_n of_o this_o say_v in_o the_o text_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n if_o circumstance_n be_v such_o that_o one_o part_n of_o religion_n must_v give_v place_n god_n will_v have_v the_o ritual_a and_o institute_v part_n to_o give_v way_n to_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a and_o moral_a it_o be_v very_o frequent_a in_o scripture_n when_o the_o duty_n of_o natural_a religion_n and_o rite_n of_o divine_a institution_n come_v in_o competition_n to_o slight_a and_o disparage_v these_o in_o comparison_n of_o moral_a duty_n and_o to_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o thing_n which_o god_n have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o and_o which_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o other_o he_o will_v hardly_o own_o that_o he_o have_v command_v when_o you_o come_v to_o appear_v before_o i_o who_o have_v require_v this_o at_o your_o hand_n isa_n 1._o 12._o thou_o desire_v not_o sacrifice_n thou_o delight_v not_o in_o burnt-offering_n psal_n 51._o 16._o will_v the_o lord_n be_v please_v

just_o and_o to_o love_v mercy_n but_o god_n no_o where_o make_v any_o comparison_n to_o the_o disadvantage_n of_o natural_a duty_n he_o never_o derogate_a from_o they_o in_o any_o case_n he_o never_o

good_a and_o show_v the_o great_a charity_n to_o one_o another_o it_o be_v no_o where_o make_v a_o question_n will_v the_o lord_n be_v please_v that_o we_o deal_v just_o every_o man_n with_o his_o

to_o those_o that_o be_v in_o need_n there_o be_v no_o such_o question_n as_o this_o put_v in_o scripture_n nay_o it_o be_v positive_a in_o these_o matter_n that_o with_o such_o sacrifice_n god_n be_v well_o please_v i_o instance_n in_o this_o virtue_n more_o especial_o of_o kindness_n and_o compassion_n because_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o prime_a instance_n of_o moral_a duty_n as_o sacrifice_n be_v put_v for_o all_o the_o ritual_a and_o institute_v part_n of_o religion_n and_o this_o disposition_n of_o mind_n our_o saviour_n make_v the_o root_n of_o all_o moral_a duty_n love_n be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o it_o as_o the_o great_a end_n and_o scope_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v charity_n and_o this_o temper_n and_o disposition_n of_o mind_n he_o advance_v above_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n and_o hope_v the_o great_a of_o these_o be_v charity_n and_o without_o this_o he_o will_v not_o allow_v a_o man_n to_o be_v any_o thing_n in_o christianity_n this_o he_o make_v our_o high_a perfection_n and_o attainment_n and_o that_o which_o abide_v and_o remain_v in_o the_o future_a state_n charity_n never_o fail_v this_o our_o saviour_n most_o effectual_o recommend_v to_o we_o both_o in_o his_o doctrine_n and_o by_o his_o example_n this_o he_o press_v as_o the_o peculiar_a law_n of_o his_o religion_n and_o the_o proper_a mark_n and_o character_n of_o a_o disciple_n this_o he_o require_v we_o to_o exercise_v towards_o those_o who_o practice_n the_o contrary_a towards_o we_o to_o love_v our_o enemy_n and_o to_o do_v good_a to_o they_o that_o hate_v we_o and_o of_o this_o he_o have_v give_v we_o the_o great_a example_n that_o ever_o be_v when_o we_o be_v enemy_n to_o he_o he_o love_v we_o so_o as_o hardly_o ever_o any_o man_n do_v his_o friend_n so_o as_o to_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o and_o he_o institute_v the_o sacrament_n for_o a_o memorial_n of_o his_o love_n to_o mankind_n and_o to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n how_o we_o ought_v to_o love_v one_o another_o and_o now_o the_o application_n of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v upon_o this_o argument_n to_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o

natural_a and_o moral_a duty_n ought_v to_o have_v in_o the_o christian_a religion_n and_o of_o all_o natural_a duty_n mercy_n and_o goodness_n this_o be_v so_o primary_n a_o duty_n of_o humane_a nature_n so_o great_a and_o considerable_a a_o part_n of_o religion_n that_o all_o positive_a institution_n must_v give_v way_n to_o it_o and_o nothing_o of_o that_o kind_n can_v cancel_v the_o obligation_n of_o it_o nor_o justify_v the_o violation_n of_o this_o great_a and_o natural_a law_n our_o bless_a saviour_n in_o his_o religion_n have_v declare_v nothing_o to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o it_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a have_v heighten_v our_o obligation_n to_o it_o as_o much_o as_o be_v possible_a by_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v not_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o so_o that_o they_o know_v not_o what_o manner_n of_o spirit_n they_o be_v of_o who_o will_v kill_v man_n to_o do_v god_n service_n and_o to_o advance_v his_o cause_n and_o
