and_o swallow_v up_o of_o the_o ocean-fountain_n whence_o they_o proceed_v 2._o the_o scripture_n be_v plain_a that_o jesus_n christ_n the_o prince_n of_o glory_n in_o the_o revelation_n of_o his_o glorious_a gospel_n have_v make_v the_o ministration_n thereof_o so_o far_o to_o exceed_v in_o glory_n that_o even_o he_o himself_o account_v the_o messenger_n thereof_o his_o glory_n whether_o

impart_v the_o fullness_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o last_o if_o the_o grow_a and_o multiply_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o his_o people_n desire_n after_o and_o rejoice_v in_o it_o have_v any_o lustre_n of_o this_o glory_n the_o present_a sad_a catastrophe_n whereby_o all_o these_o have_v be_v so_o wicked_o and_o woeful_o change_v to_o their_o contrary_n may_v more_o

these_o to_o be_v swell_a word_n of_o vanity_n remember_v that_o as_o i_o do_v speak_v the_o true_a nonconformist_a so_o it_o be_v your_o part_n by_o this_o your_o conference_n more_o solid_o to_o redargue_v he_o the_o second_o thing_n you_o suggest_v be_v that_o the_o nonconforming_a minister_n tell_v we_o only_o of_o christ_n death_n which_o be_v not_o to_o preach_v christ._n sir_n this_o allegiance_n short_a as_o it_o be_v present_v itself_o with_o a_o disgust_n that_o i_o can_v scarce_o express_v not_o that_o i_o think_v the_o nonconformist_n be_v thereby_o in_o the_o least_o note_v nay_o on_o the_o contrary_a i_o be_o confident_a that_o in_o whatsoever_o sense_n you_o be_v able_a to_o render_v the_o accusation_n pertinent_a the_o nonconformist_n be_v most_o free_a to_o deny_v it_o and_o that_o with_o the_o universal_a evidence_n of_o all_o their_o unprejudicate_a hearer_n and_o the_o unanimous_a testimony_n of_o all_o their_o confession_n and_o write_n extant_a and_o whether_o this_o be_v more_o to_o their_o advantage_n or_o your_o dishonour_n i_o hope_v you_o will_v consider_v but_o that_o which_o in_o my_o heart_n i_o detest_v be_v to_o hear_v the_o glorious_a subject_n of_o the_o precious_a death_n of_o christ_n so_o both_o slight_v and_o narrow_v within_o its_o scriptural_a acceptation_n by_o such_o a_o cold_a restrictive_a if_o the_o apostle_n paul_n desire_v to_o know_v nothing_o but_o christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v and_o glory_v only_o in_o his_o cross_n if_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n do_v necessary_o suppose_v and_o do_v certain_o confirm_v his_o precede_a testament_n nay_o if_o in_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v often_o mention_v as_o the_o substance_n and_o root_n of_o all_o have_v you_o no_o fit_a word_n for_o your_o intend_a accusation_n of_o n._n c._n then_o that_o they_o tell_v we_o only_o of_o christ_n death_n i_o know_v your_o meaning_n viz._n that_o to_o tell_v people_n only_o of_o a_o interest_n in_o christ_n while_o they_o be_v stranger_n to_o his_o law_n and_o gospel_n be_v to_o deceive_v they_o be_v as_o sound_v as_o it_o be_v untrue_o charge_v upon_o the_o nonconformist_n neither_o will_v i_o have_v tax_v a_o innocent_a lapse_n in_o the_o phrase_n observe_v but_o it_o be_v too_o visible_a tendency_n to_o the_o discredit_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o the_o new_a rational_a method_n of_o more_o exalt_v our_o righteousness_n to_o a_o equality_n with_o his_o merit_n then_o press_v it_o in_o conformity_n to_o his_o life_n and_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o my_o aversion_n the_o nonconformist_n therefore_o do_v indeed_o tell_v we_o of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n not_o with_o your_o ill_a appropriate_a and_o restringent_a only_o but_o do_v preach_v to_o we_o always_o and_o principal_o this_o doctrine_n of_o his_o cross_n as_o that_o whereby_o both_o the_o great_a mean_a of_o our_o reconciliation_n ●_o and_o the_o strong_a motive_n best_a pattern_n and_o most_o certain_a assurance_n of_o our_o die_v unto_o sin_n and_o live_n unto_o god_n wherein_o our_o sanctification_n consist_v be_v hold_v forth_o 3._o
above_o all_o thing_n plead_v the_o necessity_n and_o alone_a sufficiency_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o our_o justification_n but_o to_o restore_v your_o word_n to_o their_o own_o channel_n you_o say_v that_o since_o all_o must_v be_v condemn_v if_o god_n enter_v into_o judgement_n therefore_o god_n give_v his_o son_n unto_o the_o death_n for_o we_o that_o thereby_o we_o may_v obtain_v salvation_n and_o though_o by_o this_o passage_n it_o be_v clear_o enough_o import_v that_o it_o be_v before_o god_n and_o by_o the_o sentence_n of_o his_o law_n that_o all_o man_n stand_v condemn_v and_o that_o therefore_o he_o have_v give_v his_o son_n who_o death_n and_o blood_n be_v the_o propitiation_n and_o in_o who_o he_o be_v well_o please_v to_o be_v a_o ransom_n for_o liberation_n and_o acceptation_n to_o all_o that_o believe_v on_o he_o whereby_o justification_n by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n without_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o law_n be_v in_o substance_n grant_v yet_o for_o usher_v in_o your_o good_a work_n to_o share_v with_o faith_n in_o justification_n by_o a_o strange_a connexion_n you_o subjoin_v and_o all_o judgement_n be_v commit_v by_o the_o father_n to_o the_o son_n and_o jesus_n christ_n have_v propose_v life_n through_o his_o death_n to_o as_o many_o as_o receive_v his_o gospel_n and_o live_v according_a to_o it_o but_o i_o must_v take_v notice_n 1._o that_o by_o lay_v down_o the_o commission_n of_o judgement_n give_v to_o the_o son_n as_o a_o ground_n to_o his_o propose_v of_o the_o gospel_n offer_v you_o manifest_o repugn_v to_o our_o lord_n own_o word_n and_o testimony_n express_o distinguish_v the_o character_n of_o his_o first_o come_n which_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n to_o minister_v not_o to_o be_v

and_o great_a glory_n to_o the_o salvation_n of_o all_o that_o look_v for_o he_o and_o to_o judge_v and_o to_o execute_v judgement_n upon_o all_o that_o be_v ungodly_a 2._o by_o make_v our_o lord_n commission_n to_o judge_v antecedent_n to_o his_o ministration_n of_o the_o gospel_n you_o invert_v truth_n and_o plain_a scripture-evidence_n whereby_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o our_o lord_n be_v first_o send_v into_o the_o world_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o sinner_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v on_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o then_o because_o of_o his_o complete_a and_o perfect_a obedience_n be_v exalt_v to_o be_v the_o head_n of_o all_o thing_n unto_o the_o church_n and_o have_v authority_n also_o to_o execute_v judgement_n commit_v to_o he_o because_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man._n but._n 3._o by_o this_o your_o doctrine_n you_o in_o effect_n subvert_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o as_o much_o as_o in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o gospel-covenant_n offer_v pardon_n and_o peace_n to_o poor_a lose_a sinner_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o with_o and_o in_o he_o all_o grace_n and_o glory_n you_o introduce_v our_o lord_n as_o have_v by_o his_o death_n indeed_o merit_v the_o privilege_n of_o a_o new_a offer_n of_o life_n unto_o sinner_n but_o make_v and_o renew_v the_o same_o in_o no_o better_a term_n than_o these_o of_o the_o law-covenant_n for_o as_o the_o law_n say_v that_o the_o man_n that_o do_v these_o thing_n shall_v live_v by_o they_o so_o you_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o term_n of_o the_o gospel-tend_a be_v to_o receive_v the_o same_o and_o live_v according_a to_o it_o now_o if_o the_o law_n do_v offer_v life_n to_o such_o as_o receive_v and_o live_v according_a to_o

although_o the_o eternal_a transaction_n betwixt_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n may_v be_v of_o grace_n yet_o it_o be_v undeniable_a that_o in_o your_o opinion_n the_o tender_v of_o the_o law_n and_o gospel_n as_o to_o us-ward_n do_v run_v in_o the_o same_o tenor_n and_o the_o condescendence_n of_o both_o prerequire_v our_o work_n be_v equal_o to_o be_v reckon_v of_o debt_n these_o be_v the_o consequence_n of_o that_o gospel-method_n by_o you_o here_o contrive_v and_o its_o design_n no_o less_o evident_a to_o make_v work_n with_o say_v the_o condition_n and_o procure_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n at_o least_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o judge_n appoint_v i_o add_v 1._o that_o your_o attribute_v of_o justification_n to_o christ_n as_o judge_v ordain_v

2._o the_o authority_n to_o execute_v judgement_n be_v give_v to_o our_o lord_n as_o the_o mediator_n and_o because_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n in_o which_o respect_n he_o be_v not_o the_o

to_o own_o be_v both_o a_o groundless_a error_n and_o high_a presumption_n but_o i_o proceed_v to_o your_o next_o word_n viz._n that_o christ_n jesus_n have_v propose_v life_n through_o his_o death_n to_o as_o many_o as_o receive_v his_o gospel_n and_o live_v according_a to_o it_o that_o this_o be_v a_o manifest_a perversion_n of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n whereby_o our_o lord_n jesus_n
