wicked_a because_o the_o apostle_n peter_n 16._o say_v that_o they_o who_o under_o pretence_n of_o christian_a liberty_n deny_v obedience_n to_o the_o magistrate_n in_o lawful_a thing_n do_v use_v their_o liberty_n for_o a_o cloak_n to_o cover_v their_o wickedness_n again_o the_o inward_a liberty_n be_v either_o a_o carnal_a or_o spiritual_a liberty_n the_o carnal_a liberty_n be_v that_o whereby_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v free_a from_o righteousness_n which_o indeed_o be_v a_o voluntary_a service_n of_o sin_n for_o when_o man_n be_v free_a from_o righteousness_n they_o be_v servant_n of_o sin_n and_o contrariwise_o as_o the_o apostle_n 20._o show_v but_o our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o a_o liberty_n which_o as_o it_o free_v man_n from_o the_o servitude_n of_o sin_n and_o all_o the_o spiritual_a yoke_n of_o bondage_n which_o accompany_v the_o same_o so_o it_o make_v they_o the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n for_o when_o we_o be_v 18._o make_v free_a from_o sin_n we_o be_v make_v the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n wherefore_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o former_a we_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n he_o that_o be_v call_v be_v a_o servant_n be_v the_o freeman_n of_o christ_n so_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o latter_a 22._o he_o that_o be_v call_v be_v free_a be_v the_o servant_n of_o christ._n devilish_a therefore_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o libertine_n who_o under_o pretence_n of_o christian_a liberty_n discharge_v christian_n from_o all_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n set_v they_o free_a to_o do_v whatsoever_o themselves_o think_v good_a and_o such_o be_v the_o slander_n of_o the_o papist_n lay_v that_o doctrine_n to_o our_o charge_n who_o notwithstanding_o be_v further_o from_o it_o then_o themselves_o for_o by_o the_o pope_n indulgence_n and_o pardon_n and_o the_o priest_n absolution_n set_v man_n free_a from_o sin_n for_o small_a and_o oft_o time_n for_o ridiculous_a penance_n what_o do_v they_o else_o but_o teach_v man_n to_o make_v but_o a_o sport_n of_o sin_n of_o such_o libertine_n the_o apostle_n peter_n 19_o speak_v that_o while_o they_o promise_v liberty_n to_o other_o themselves_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o corruption_n it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o christian_a liberty_n be_v a_o spiritual_a liberty_n free_v the_o true_a christian_a from_o the_o servitude_n of_o sin_n and_o from_o all_o other_o yoke_n of_o spiritual_a bondage_n wherewith_o sin_n have_v entangle_v us._n neither_o be_v christian_a liberty_n only_o privative_a as_o be_v a_o freedom_n and_o immunity_n from_o bondage_n as_o though_o this_o be_v all_o that_o by_o it_o we_o be_v not_o servant_n but_o as_o appear_v by_o this_o scripture_n it_o be_v also_o positive_a as_o be_v a_o liberty_n power_n right_a and_o interest_n to_o the_o privilege_n of_o god_n child_n who_o be_v also_o heir_n of_o god_n and_o coheire_n with_o christ._n for_o when_o he_o have_v say_v that_o servant_n abide_v not_o in_o the_o house_n for_o ever_o but_o that_o such_o as_o be_v son_n abide_v in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o he_o infer_v if_o therefore_o the_o son_n shall_v make_v you_o free_a you_o shall_v be_v free_a indeed_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o those_o who_o he_o free_v he_o do_v not_o only_o make_v they_o not_o servant_n viz._n of_o sin_n but_o also_o son_n and_o heir_n of_o god_n and_o citizen_n of_o
