the_o obedience_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n do_v consist_v in_o be_v obedient_a unto_o a_o positive_a commandment_n which_o be_v the_o symbol_n of_o his_o obedience_n to_o the_o whole_a law_n of_o

4._o it_o speak_v also_o the_o worth_n of_o soul_n if_o a_o physician_n have_v a_o patient_n ready_a to_o die_v and_o nothing_o will_v work_v his_o cure_n but_o the_o heartblood_n of_o the_o

be_v many_o thing_n that_o do_v speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n but_o of_o all_o thing_n methinks_v the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n loud_a give_v i_o leave_v to_o name_v some_o that_o so_o you_o may_v compare_v they_o and_o this_o together_o first_o the_o separation_n from_o god_n and_o union_n with_o satan_n speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n as_o by_o grace_n we_o be_v unite_v unto_o god_n make_v one_o with_o god_n and_o separate_v from_o the_o devil_n so_o by_o sin_n we_o be_v separate_v from_o god_n and_o unite_v unto_o satan_n and_o make_v one_o with_o he_o 2._o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n by_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n if_o the_o eat_n of_o the_o apple_n commit_v that_o one_o sin_n bring_v condemnation_n upon_o all_o the_o world_n how_o g_o eat_n must_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n be_v 3._o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n for_o what_o be_v the_o fuel_n that_o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n feed_v upon_o but_o sin_n take_v sin_n away_o and_o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n will_v die_v it_o will_v be_v quench_v 4._o the_o spoil_n of_o duty_n speak_v it_o one_o sinful_a thought_n be_v enough_o to_o spoil_v a_o prayer_n to_o spoil_v a_o duty_n to_o spoil_v a_o sermon_n and_o if_o one_o drop_n of_o ink_n shall_v black_a a_o whole_a glass_n of_o milk_n how_o black_a be_v that_o ink_n 5._o the_o horror_n of_o conscience_n speak_v it_o for_o if_o but_o one_o sin_n set_v on_o upon_o the_o soul_n by_o god_n do_v put_v a_o man_n into_o such_o horror_n of_o conscience_n how_o great_a be_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n 6._o the_o troublesomeness_n of_o the_o relic_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o saint_n speak_v it_o sin_n in_o the_o saint_n be_v but_o wasp_n without_o their_o sting_n and_o if_o the_o wasp_n without_o their_o sting_n be_v so_o troublesome_a how_o troublesome_a be_v the_o wasp_n that_o have_v their_o sting_n in_o they_o how_o troublesome_a be_v sin_n in_o itself_o but_o seventh_o and_o above_o all_o the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n for_o if_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a that_o nothing_o can_v satisfy_v for_o it_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n and_o the_o filth_n of_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a that_o nothing_o can_v fetch_v out_o the_o stain_n thereof_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n how_o great_a how_o heinous_a how_o sinful_a must_v the_o evil_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n and_o then_o 6_o as_o the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v speak_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n so_o it_o speak_v the_o riches_n and_o the_o freeness_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n it_o be_v love_n in_o jonathan_n to_o part_v with_o his_o garment_n for_o david_n what_o love_n be_v it_o in_o christ_n to_o part_v with_o his_o blood_n for_o we_o it_o be_v love_n that_o make_v christ_n weep_v over_o lazarus_n they_o say_v behold_v how_o he_o love_v he_o and_o if_o his_o tear_n speak_v his_o love_n what_o do_v his_o blood_n it_o be_v love_n to_o give_v a_o cup_n of_o cold_a water_n to_o a_o disciple_n what_o be_v it_o then_o to_o give_v one_o warm_a blood_n unto_o enemy_n three_o thing_n there_o be_v that_o do_v make_v a_o gift_n great_o free_a 1._o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o gift_n give_v 2._o the_o unworthiness_n of_o the_o person_n give_v unto_o 3._o and_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o person_n that_o give_v 1._o as_o for_o the_o gift_n itself_o what_o great_a than_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n 2._o as_o for_o the_o person_n give_v unto_o who_o more_o unworthy_a than_o sinful_a man_n 3._o as_o for_o the_o person_n that_o do_v give_v who_o great_a than_o god_n in_o the_o three_o person_n the_o father_n give_v christ_n to_o die_v the_o son_n die_v and_o give_v his_o blood_n and_o the_o holy-ghost_n come_v and_o sprinkle_v it_o for_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o holy-ghost_n to_o sprinkle_v this_o be_v another_o thing_n that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n speak_v it_o speak_v the_o riches_n and_o the_o freeness_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o this_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v speak_v and_o now_o if_o you_o ask_v how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_v it_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o abel_n or_o then_o that_o of_o abel_n for_o it_o may_v be_v translate_v both_o way_n according_a to_o the_o several_a copy_n but_o take_v it_o according_a to_o our_o translation_n better_o than_o that_o of_o abel_n or_o then_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n how_o and_o in_o what_o respect_n do_v the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n why_o it_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o personal_a blood_n of_o abel_n and_o it_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o sacrifice_v blood_n of_o abel_n it_o speak_v better_a than_o the_o personal_a blood_n of_o abel_n for_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n cry_v for_o vengeance_n against_o his_o own_o brother_n but_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n cry_v for_o mercy_n and_o for_o remission_n for_o his_o enemy_n father_n forgive_v they_o they_o know_v not_o what_o they_o do_v say_v christ_n when_o their_o hand_n be_v embrue_v in_o his_o blood_n but_o other_o think_v rather_o that_o these_o word_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o sacrifice_a blood_n of_o abel_n and_o because_o abel_n be_v the_o first_o that_o stand_v upon_o record_n in_o scripture_n for_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n with_o blood_n it_o be_v as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v say_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n on_o the_o cross_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o abel_n or_o of_o all_o the_o sacrifice_n in_o the_o old-testament_n and_o indeed_o this_o be_v more_o suitable_a to_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o for_o the_o design_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o be_v to_o show_v the_o excellency_n of_o new-testament_n sacrifice_n and_o of_o the_o way_n of_o the_o new-testament_n above_o the_o old_a and_o if_o you_o look_v into_o the_o scripture_n you_o find_v that_o though_o in_o the_o four_o of_o genesis_n it_o ●s_v say_v abel_n blood_n cry_v yet_o notwithstanding_o i●_n be_v not_o say_v that_o abel_n or_o his_o blood_n speak_v bu●●n_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o hebrew_n it_o be_v say_v that_o in_o point_n of_o sacrifice_n by_o faith_n abel_n speak_v by_o faith_n abel_n offer_v unto_o god_n a_o more_o excellent_a sacrifice_n than_o cain_n and_o by_o it_o he_o be_v dead_a yet_o speak_v in_o point_n of_o sacrifice_n by_o faith_n he_o yet_o speak_v and_o will_v you_o know_v how_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o sacrifice_a blood_n of_o abel_n or_o than_o all_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n thus._n 1._o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n do_v give_v efficacy_n unto_o all_o those_o sacrifice_n what_o a●e_v all_o the_o type_n and_o ceremony_n but_o dead_a thing_n without_o the_o thing_n typify_v 2._o and_o though_o abel_n offer_v a_o excellent_a sacrifice_n he_o do_v not_o offer_v

time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n befo_fw-la e_fw-la christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n there_o be_v altar_n so_o shall_v antichrist_n have_v and_o as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n before_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n here_o be_v sacrifice_n so_o shall_v antichrist_n have_v his_o unbloody_a sacrifice_n as_o then_o they_o turn_v into_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n so_o shall_v antichrist_n also_o do_v thus_o the_o more_o legal_a and_o of_o a_o old_a testament_n stamp_n your_o worship_n be_v the_o more_o antichristian_a '_o it_o be_v now_o be_v it_o not_o a_o dangerous_a thing_n to_o have_v our_o worship_n antichristian_a worship_n in_o these_o gospel-daye_n 4._o but_o again_o the_o apostle_n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o th●_n inheritance_n be_v not_o to_o the_o bondwoman_n there_o wer●_n two_o woman_n in_o a●rahams_n house_n hagar_n the_o bondwoman_n and_o sarah_n the_o freewoman_n and_o these_o wer●_n type_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n say_v the_o apostle_n the_o inheritance_n be_v not_o to_o the_o bondwoman_n cast_v he_o out_o but_o the_o inheritance_n be_v to_o the_o freewoman_n an●_n to_o her_o child_n so_o then_o the_o inheritance_n be_v not_o 〈◊〉_d the_o legalist_n no_o the_o inheritance_n be_v to_o the_o freewoman_n 5._o yea_o friend_n what_o be_v this_o but_o a_o plain_a apostasy_n or_o that_o which_o tend_v to_o apostasy_n now_o after_o we_o profess_v we_o be_v come_v to_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n to_o have_v recourse_n to_o moses_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o old_a covenant_n all_o flesh_n be_v grass_n and_o wither_v but_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n endure_v for_o ever_o and_o with_o that_o the_o gospel_n that_o i_o preach_v unto_o you_o that_o will_v hold_v say_v he_o who_o house_n you_o be_v say_v the_o apostle_n if_o you_o hold_v fast_o the_o confidence_n of_o your_o rejoice_v steadfast_a unto_o the_o end_n whe●e_o lie_v our_o confidence_n but_o in_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n yea_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o legal_a galatian_n you_o be_v fall_v from_o grace_n because_o they_o we●e_v return_v to_o moses_n and_o have_v recourse_n to_o moses_n o_o what_o a_o dangerous_a thing_n than_o be_v it_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v legal_a in_o these_o gospel-time_n object_n but_o yet_o may_v not_o possible_o a_o godly_a true_o gracious_a soul_n be_v too_o legal_a even_o in_o these_o gospel-time_n answ_n possible_o he_o may_v for_o as_o there_o be_v no_o duty_n which_o a_o good_a man_n do_v perform_v but_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v perform_v the_o same_o for_o one_o act_n so_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n that_o a_o wicked_a man_n do_v commit_v but_o a_o godly_a man_n may_v commit_v the_o same_o for_o one_o act_n and_o therefore_o this_o of_o legality_n he_o may_v fall_v into_o as_o well_o as_o other_o yet_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o this_o though_o a_o good_a and_o gracious_a soul_n may_v be_v overgrow_v with_o legality_n too_o much_o yet_o he_o be_v very_o sensible_a of_o his_o own_o legality_n a_o mere_a legalist_n be_v not_o he_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o we_o speak_v of_o a_o legal_a spirit_n in_o a_o gospel-time_n and_o though_o a_o good_a man_n may_v be_v too_o much_o overgrow_v be_v too_o legal_a and_o too_o moysaicall_a yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o do_v not_o he_o can_v wish_v that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n because_o the_o law_n be_v write_v in_o his_o heart_n another_o that_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o the_o law_n can_v wish_v with_o all_o his_o soul_n that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n because_o he_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o it_o again_o though_o a_o good_a man_n may_v be_v too_o much_o overgrow_v with_o legality_n yet_o he_o do_v most_o savour_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n spiritual_a thing_n for_o every_o man_n be_v according_a to_o what_o he_o savour_v three_o man_n come_v to_o a_o sermon_n one_o a_o affectionate_a man_n another_o a_o expressionate_a man_n a_o man_n of_o part_n another_o a_o spiritual_a man_n and_o the_o preacher_n have_v it_o may_v be_v all_o three_o he_o have_v affection_n he_o have_v expression_n he_o have_v spiritual_a matter_n the_o affectionate_a man_n be_v most_o take_v with_o the_o affectionate_a part_n the_o expressionist_n and_o the_o man_n of_o part_n be_v most_o take_v with_o the_o expression_n of_o the_o sermon_n and_o there_o he_o hang_v such_o and_o such_o rare_a expression_n there_o be_v but_o the_o spiritual_a man_n be_v most_o take_v with_o the_o spiritual_a matter_n of_o the_o sermon_n for_o every_o man_n be_v according_a to_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o savour_v now_o i_o say_v a_o good_a man_n though_o he_o may_v be_v overgrow_v with_o legality_n yet_o he_o savour_v spiritual_a and_o gospel-thing_n most_o and_o then_o again_o though_o a_o good_a man_n may_v be_v too_o legal_a yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o do_v he_o can_v oppose_v those_o that_o be_v spiritual_a and_o evangelical_n and_o of_o a_o gospel_n spirit_n though_o a_o spark_n of_o fire_n be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o the_o flame_n it_o will_v not_o oppose_v the_o flame_n and_o though_o a_o good_a man_n be_v too_o legal_a he_o will_v not_o oppose_v and_o persecute_v they_o that_o be_v evangelical_n a_o legalist_n will_n say_v the_o apostle_n but_o the_o son_n of_o the_o bondwoman_n persecute_v the_o s●n_n of_o the_o freewoman_n and_o true_o the_o more_o legal_a we_o be_v the_o more_o we_o be_v apt_a for_o to_o persecute_v so_o that_o thus_o than_o we_o see_v what_o a_o dangerous_a thing_n it_o be_v to_o be_v legal_a and_o moysaicall_a in_o these_o gospel_n time_n but_o five_o what_o shall_v we_o then_o do_v that_o we_o may_v stand_v clear_a from_o moses_n and_o come_v off_o clear_o unto_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n this_o i_o must_v speak_v unto_o only_o by_o the_o way_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o say_v three_o or_o four_o thing_n unto_o you_o first_o if_o we_o be_v not_o come_v to_o moses_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o old_a covenant_n but_o unto_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a what_o a_o bless_a and_o happy_a condition_n be_v all_o the_o saint_n in_o now_o in_o these_o gospel-time_n it_o be_v a_o comfortable_a thing_n for_o the_o jew_n to_o have_v moses_n with_o they_o that_o mediator_n that_o upon_o all_o occasion_n he_o may_v interpose_v between_o

between_o god_n and_o the_o people_n yet_o 1._o he_o be_v but_o a_o typical_a mediator_n and_o therefore_o look_v how_o much_o the_o thing_n typify_v go_v beyond_o the_o type_n the_o substance_n go_v beyond_o the_o shadow_n so_o much_o do_v our_o mediator_n go_v beyond_o they_o 2._o again_o though_o moses_n be_v a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o they_o yet_o he_o be_v but_o mere_a man_n but_o i_o sus_fw-la the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v god_n and_o man_n very_o god_n and_o very_o man_n in_o rom._n 9.5_o whose_o be_v the_o father_n and_o of_o who_o as_o concern_v the_o

send_v by_o who_o thou_o will_v say_v he_o but_o now_o this_o our_o jesus_n say_v lo_o i_o come_v i_o delight_v to_o do_v thy_o will._n 4._o again_o though_o moses_n be_v a_o mediator_n then_o between_o god_n and_o they_o and_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o they_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v that_o work_n of_o mediation_n perfect_o i_o be_o not_o eloquent_a say_v he_o and_o i_o
