to_o rom._n 1.21_o 22._o but_o in_o this_o as_o most_o every_a where_o he_o pervert_v my_o word_n and_o sense_n for_o he_o have_v leave_v out_o my_o follow_a word_n according_a to_o the_o present_a state_n and_o what_o i_o mean_v by_o they_o i_o show_v a_o little_a after_o that_o such_o who_o have_v a_o measure_n of_o sincerity_n in_o their_o gentile_a state_n but_o have_v no_o faith_n in_o christ_n crucify_v be_v but_o servant_n and_o not_o son_n of_o the_o free_a woman_n but_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o though_o accept_v so_o far_o as_o sincere_a in_o the_o servant_n state_n as_o i_o prove_v from_o act_n 10.1_o 2_o 34_o 35._o yet_o not_o thereby_o justify_v as_o son_n for_o i_o have_v acknowledge_v that_o without_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v and_o raise_v again_o without_o we_o none_o be_v or_o can_v be_v so_o justify_v yet_o they_o be_v as_o the_o king_n prisoner_n and_o as_o the_o manslayer_n be_v in_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n under_o the_o law_n till_o he_o hear_v of_o the_o death_n of_o the_o highpriest_n and_o such_o be_v shut_v up_o under_o the_o safeguard_v of_o the_o law_n as_o beza_n translate_v it_o unto_o the_o faith_n that_o be_v

of_o great_a difficulty_n to_o understand_v and_o that_o none_o be_v eternal_o save_v without_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n i_o have_v grant_v in_o my_o catechism_n and_o other_o treatise_n and_o do_v

as_o the_o westminster_z confession_n say_v god_n work_v by_o his_o spirit_n when_o where_o and_o how_o he_o please_v and_o as_o christ_n say_v the_o spirit_n blow_v where_o it_o list_v the_o greek_n

man_n as_o the_o like_a in_o the_o case_n of_o divorce_n come_v in_o afterward_o and_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o abraham_n sin_v against_o the_o law_n in_o his_o conscience_n write_v in_o

of_o great_a aggravation_n as_o the_o westminster_n confession_n acknowledge_v but_o see_v no_o such_o sin_n be_v charge_v on_o abraham_n and_o that_o he_o be_v in_o great_a favour_n with_o god_n at_o that_o very_a time_n it_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v against_o that_o law_n write_v in_o his_o nature_n though_o it_o be_v against_o the_o law_n of_o the_o new-covenant_n now_o under_o the_o gospel_n 5_o thly_a that_o we_o be_v to_o wait_v in_o silence_n for_o some_o aid_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o help_v we_o to_o pray_v do_v not_o contradict_v act_n 8.22_o for_o as_o peter_n
