A03392	The office and vse of the morall law of God in the dayes of the gospell iustified, and explained at large by Scriptures, Fathers, and other orthodoxe diuines, so farre as occasion was giuen by a scandalous pamphlet sent abroad of late into the hands of diuers good Christians, pretending great reason and reading for the vtter abrogating and abolishing of the whole Law of Moses since the death of Christ. By William Hinde, sometimes fellow of Queenes Colledge in Oxford, and now preacher of Gods Word at Bunbury in Cheshire.	Hinde, William, 1569?-1629.	1622 (1622)	STC 13513; ESTC S116213	121,247	151

to glory and being enabled by his spirit which he hath according to his t Ezek. 36.26 27. 2 Cor. 3.17 Couenant put within vs to walke in his statutes and to doe his will we delight in the Law of God after the inward man Rom. 7.22 and shew our loue to God in keeping his u Ioh. 14.15 Commandements which now are not x 1 Ioh. 5.3 grieuous as they were in the letter to the Iewes but easie and y Matt. 11.30 light as Christ hath made them by his spirit vnto vs they being driuen and enforced to obedience by the spirit of z Rom. 8.15 bondage and feare we drawne and allured thereunto by the a 2 Cor. 3.17 spirit of liberty and loue they vnder the Morall Law as a Law of b Gal. 3.24 cruell tyranny and we vnder it only as vnder a c Iam. 2.8 12. royall Law of liberty So that as the d Ioh. 4.42 Samaritans which formerly had beleeued the report of the woman concerning Christ the Sauiour of the world when once they heard him themselues said vnto her Now we beleeue not because of thy saying for we haue heard him our selues and know that this indeed is the Christ the Sauiour of the world So may we say concerning our obedience to the Morall Law Now we obey not because Moses did in that manner and measure charge and command the Iewes to keepe the Morall Law but because we haue heard the Law-giuer himselfe whose voice then e Heb. 12.26 27. shooke the earth and hath yet once more shaken not only the earth but the heauen in remouing those things that may be shaken confirming the Morall Law vnto vs f Matt. 5.22 28 34 clearing it from the false glosses of the Pharisies g 39 44. opening the true meaning of it to his disciples requiring a h 2 Cor. 8 12. 2 Cor. 9.7 willing and vpright not an absolute and perfect obedience vnto it and giuing i Phil. 2.13 2 Cor. 9.8 2 Cor. 8.16 ability to doe what he requires vnto all that beleeue and obey the Gospell and yet further both threatning a k Matt. 5.19 judgement vnto all whosoeuer they be that shall wilfully breake one of the least of the Commandements and shall teach others so and promising a blessing vnto all that shall willingly doe them and teach the same to other men accordingly * Antinomus But it may be you thinke the Morall Law was giuen to the Iewes only because there be some reasons vrged to enforce obedience thereunto which may seeme to belong only vnto that people and no other to which purpose as I conceiue you alledge Exod. 20.2 12. where mention is made of their deliuerance out of Egypt and their inheritance in the land of Canaan To this I answer That we doe not deny but Answer as the Morall Law was deliuered both by word and writing to the Iewes as then they stood there were in it some things touching the personall estate and condition of that people which were temporall and peculiar to that people only Such was the late blessing of God in their wonderfull deliuerance our of the land l Exod. 20.2 12. of Egypt and out of the house of bondage being but m Exod. 19.1 three monethes before the giuing of the Law which being yet so fresh in their memories and the remembrance thereof so sweet vnto them was held in the wisdome of God considering their dulnesse vnto holy duties to be as a spurre or a goad to quicken them and prouoke them to yeeld obedience vnto the Morall Law both in generall as in the Preface to the Law in this and other places which you alledge and in n Deut. 5.14 15. speciall to the fourth Commandement in keeping of the Sabbath day Deut. 5.14 15. And yet we know for certaine that this reason taken from their deliuerance out of Egypt was temporall only and not perpetuall both because the Lord doth charge the children of Israel vpon their deliuerance out of the Babylonian captiuity to say no more The Lord liueth which brought vp the children of Israel o Ier. 16.13 14 15. out of the land of Egypt but The Lord liueth which brought vp the children of Israel out of the land of the North and also because the deliuerance out of Egypt being literally and personally taken in these places could binde no more of the children of Israel to heare and obey the Law but only them that in their owne persons ware so deliuered and with their owne eares p Exod. 20.1 2. heard the voice of God speaking all the words of the Law vnto them and so not only the force of this reason taken from their deliuerance out of Egypt but the Law it selfe also for which it is vrged should both haue fallen together with the carkases of those that fell in the wildernesse seeing q Num. 14.29 30. not one of all those that in their owne persons were deliuered out of Egypt and heard the voice of the Lord in the giuing of the Law except Caleb and Iosuah did euer enter into the holy Land You see then that the particular conueniency of this reason taken from their deliuerance out of Egypt will not binde the Morall Law in absolute propriety to the Iewes neither only ☜ nor alwaies And also that not so much the speciall quality of the benefit as the generall equity of the same See Muscul loc com in Explicat primi praecepti is to be weighed and considered in this reason for if corporall deliuerances were or else might haue beene of some force to draw carnall Israel to heare and obey the Morall Law why are not or ought not spirituall deliuerances be of like effect and power to preuaile with all Beleeuers the r Rom. 9.6 Gal. 6.16 true Israel of God to the same purpose And who doubteth but a Minister of the Gospell to draw the people of God to performe the duties of piety and charity in the first and second Table might by analogy and like equity preach and proclaime Thus faith the Lord heare ô Israel I am the Lord thy God which haue deliuered thee from the ſ Col. 1.13 power of darknesse and translated thee into the kingdome of the Sonne of my loue Thou shalt haue no t 1 Cor. 8.6 other Gods before me c.
