to_o speak_v as_o i_o do_v be_v better_a as_o fit_v to_o my_o pacificatory_a end_n this_o be_v what_o i_o say_v i_o give_v it_o light_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o a_o pardon_n by_o act_n of_o

it_o be_v all_o from_o the_o agreement_n between_o father_n and_o son_n that_o christ_n shall_v fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o by_o suffer_v also_o satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o pardon_v

so_o as_o to_o be_v save_v you_o have_v a_o way_n chalk_v out_o for_o reconciliation_n of_o our_o brethren_n at_o least_o so_o far_o as_o i_o drive_v to_o wit_n that_o conscientious_a
something_o practical_a at_o the_o end_n that_o christ_n have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o law_n or_o deliver_v we_o from_o it_o as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o that_o we_o be_v not_o under_o

life_n keep_v the_o commandment_n the_o law_n therefore_o may_v be_v consider_v qua_fw-la regula_n or_o qua_fw-la foedus_fw-la say_v our_o divine_n which_o do_v in_o the_o gross_a state_n the_o

but_o we_o mean_v the_o law_n moral_a the_o law_n of_o nature_n or_o law_n of_o work_n now_o this_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n we_o say_v that_o be_v as_o it_o prescribe_v we_o our_o duty_n to_o god_n ourselves_o and_o our_o neighbour_n can_v cease_v but_o be_v always_o of_o force_n because_o it_o be_v found_v on_o our_o nature_n and_o god_n and_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v the_o same_o this_o must_v be_v so_o also_o for_o ever_o o_o lord_n thy_o law_n be_v settle_v in_o heaven_n but_o the_o law_n as_o a_o covenant_n that_o be_v as_o god_n and_o man_n be_v oblige_v thereby_o so_o that_o man_n must_v live_v or_o die_v and_o god_n deal_v with_o he_o according_a to_o his_o keep_n or_o break_v it_o this_o be_v not_o to_o stand_v in_o force_n but_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o it_o by_o christ_n to_o come_v to_o the_o difficulty_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n in_o the_o covenant_n the_o precept_n the_o promise_n and_o the_o threat_n the_o preceptive_a part_n now_o be_v and_o must_v be_v still_o of_o force_n because_o the_o law_n qua_fw-la regula_n be_v the_o comminatory_a part_n be_v of_o force_n likewise_o because_o christ_n tell_v we_o those_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o and_o st._n paul_n say_v that_o we_o be_v all_o by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n which_o can_v not_o be_v if_o the_o threat_n be_v void_a the_o promisory_a part_n then_o only_o remain_v and_o divine_n say_v therefore_o that_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o subject_a cease_n that_o cease_v the_o condition_n thereof_o they_o say_v can_v be_v perform_v and_o the_o promise_n be_v void_a but_o neither_o what_o they_o say_v be_v true_a nor_o be_v it_o the_o thing_n which_o shall_v be_v say_v it_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n because_o the_o delivery_n of_o we_o from_o the_o law_n which_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o as_o the_o purchase_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o free_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n and_o condemnation_n of_o it_o to_o be_v free_v from_o the_o promisory_a part_n what_o good_a be_v that_o neither_o be_v this_o true_a because_o the_o lord_n jesus_n a_o man_n as_o we_o be_v do_v perform_v the_o condition_n and_o make_v the_o reward_n thereby_o due_a to_o he_o of_o debt_n or_o merit_n and_o according_o enter_v into_o glory_n this_o can_v be_v gainsay_v by_o no_o body_n if_o then_o neither_o the_o promise_n nor_o threat_v nor_o precept_n be_v cease_v how_o do_v the_o law_n cease_v as_o a_o covenant_n or_o we_o be_v free_v from_o it_o here_o now_o be_v the_o thing_n i_o must_v speak_v to_o and_o i_o humble_o answer_v there_o be_v two_o party_n in_o a_o covenant_n as_o i_o have_v assert_v before_o and_o consequent_o there_o be_v our_o part_n and_o there_o be_v god_n part_n in_o the_o covenant_n on_o our_o part_n the_o law_n qua_fw-la regula_n &_o qua_fw-la foedus_fw-la both_o be_v the_o law_n and_o covenant_n of_o nature_n must_v for_o aught_o i_o see_v continue_v and_o always_o for_o when_o christ_n after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v have_v deliver_v up_o his_o mediatory_a kingdom_n and_o the_o law_n of_o it_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o man_n be_v make_v perfect_a in_o holiness_n and_o confirm_v therein_o this_o law_n be_v that_o which_o he_o and_o the_o bless_a spirit_n in_o heaven_n shall_v live_v by_o and_o keep_v for_o evermore_o but_o as_o to_o god_n part_n now_o and_o till_o the_o judgement_n be_v pass_v the_o case_n be_v alter_v we_o be_v by_o this_o covenant_n through_o our_o transgression_n we_o and_o all_o the_o world_n in_o god_n hand_n liable_a to_o wrath_n and_o condemnation_n and_o god_n as_o

of_o a_o satisfaction_n to_o be_v make_v by_o his_o son_n and_o thereupon_o he_o be_v take_v off_o so_o as_o not_o to_o inflict_v the_o punishment_n upon_o we_o there_o be_v two_o reason_n upon_o which_o a_o lawgiver_n who_o also_o be_v rector_n may_v forbear_v the_o punish_v a_o delinquent_n one_o be_v when_o the_o case_n of_o the_o person_n be_v pittiable_a and_o require_v commiseration_n and_o the_o other_o when_o his_o justice_n and_o honour_n can_v be_v save_v also_o though_o he_o spare_v that_o person_n such_o be_v the_o case_n here_o if_o god_n deal_v with_o man_n according_a to_o this_o law_n all_o mankind_n must_v perish_v which_o be_v pittiable_a indeed_o and_o it_o please_v he_o therefore_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n his_o son_n shall_v interpose_v who_o by_o fulfil_v
