apostle_n rom._n 8.15_o a_o man_n be_v then_o say_v to_o wait_v for_o death_n when_o he_o be_v look_v for_o it_o at_o every_o turn_n as_o a_o steward_n wait_v for_o his_o master_n when_o he_o

but_o for_o the_o more_o clear_a explain_v of_o it_o we_o make_v new_a obedience_n a_o thing_n of_o itself_o and_o not_o include_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o repentance_n for_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o that_o whereof_o repentance_n be_v a_o resolute_a wish_v and_o desire_v a_o man_n can_v possible_o rest_v on_o christ_n for_o salvation_n till_o he_o have_v so_o ask_v pardon_n as_o he_o

when_o by_o declare_v of_o man_n sin_n we_o denounce_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n against_o such_o sin_n and_o so_o pronounce_v man_n to_o stand_v under_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o remain_v in_o those_o sin_n say_v christ_n what_o you_o thus_o bind_v on_o earth_n shall_v be_v bind_v in_o heaven_n that_o be_v god_n act_n shall_v ratify_v and_o confirm_v the_o same_o sentence_n in_o heaven_n which_o we_o denounce_v here_o upon_o earth_n by_o virtue_n of_o this_o word_n so_o when_o we_o come_v to_o distress_a soul_n and_o declare_v to_o they_o that_o they_o stand_v acquit_v and_o that_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o so_o as_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o truth_n reveal_v to_o we_o declare_v that_o they_o be_v free_v from_o the_o bond_n and_o guilt_n of_o their_o sin_n upon_o those_o evidence_n of_o repentance_n that_o they_o manifest_v i_o say_v it_o be_v ratify_v in_o heaven_n therefore_o you_o see_v there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n of_o proceed_v but_o look_v as_o christ_n own_o word_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n so_o the_o same_o that_o be_v as_o his_o own_o word_n that_o be_v those_o truth_n that_o be_v draw_v from_o christ_n truth_n have_v the_o same_o power_n upon_o the_o heart_n and_o conscience_n of_o man_n now_o to_o cammand_v they_o and_o shall_v have_v after_o to_o judge_v they_o as_o ever_o they_o have_v but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v object_v object_n it_o shall_v seem_v that_o all_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o law_n because_o there_o be_v some_o man_n to_o who_o the_o law_n have_v never_o be_v publish_v for_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v to_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n that_o have_v not_o yet_o receive_v the_o scripture_n we_o know_v that_o the_o scripture_n have_v not_o be_v publish_v to_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n there_o be_v many_o heathen_n many_o pagan_n that_o never_o have_v the_o scripture_n therefore_o how_o shall_v they_o be_v jndged_a by_o the_o law_n except_o you_o say_v that_o only_o those_o shall_v be_v judge_v by_o it_o that_o have_v be_v under_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o have_v have_v the_o help_n of_o the_o scripture_n we_o answer_v all_o that_o all_o mankind_n and_o every_o particular_a man_n be_v under_o the_o law_n only_o the_o law_n be_v not_o alike_o express_v to_o they_o it_o be_v not_o reveal_v alike_o to_o all_o sort_n all_o have_v the_o law_n and_o the_o law_n write_v too_o but_o either_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o so_o it_o be_v natural_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n or_o else_o in_o the_o scrpture_n and_o so_o it_o be_v more_o clear_o and_o evident_o manifest_v in_o the_o church_n but_o yet_o nevertheless_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v the_o law_n write_v as_o much_o as_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o condemn_v they_o as_o we_o see_v 14._o rom._n 2.14_o say_v the_o apostle_n if_o the_o gentile_n which_o have_v not_o the_o law_n do_v by_o nature_n the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n they_o have_v not_o the_o law_n be_v a_o law_n to_o themselves_o and_o show_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o law_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n their_o conscience_n accuse_v or_o excuse_v they_o before_o god_n the_o gentile_n that_o have_v not_o the_o law_n that_o be_v not_o the_o law_n write_v in_o the_o scripture_n yet_o nevertheless_o they_o be_v a_o law_n to_o themselves_o that_o be_v they_o have_v certain_a principle_n certain_a rule_n which_o remain_v in_o their_o natural_a conscience_n whereby_o they_o either_o accuse_v or_o excuse_v as_o they_o do_v good_a or_o evil_n and_o even_o these_o do_v show_v that_o they_o have_v a_o law_n that_o do_v bind_v they_o and_o shall_v condemn_v they_o because_o that_o when_o they_o will_v not_o obey_v even_o that_o law_n that_o be_v even_o those_o principle_n whereupon_o their_o conscience_n wrought_v to_o accuse_v or_o excuse_v they_o be_v sinner_n against_o the_o law_n so_o that_o we_o see_v no_o man_n shall_v be_v condemn_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o law_n and_o however_o all_o have_v not_o the_o scripture_n yet_o they_o have_v a_o natural_a conscience_n and_o the_o law_n write_v there_o whereby_o it_o accuse_v or_o excuse_v howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a that_o thing_n be_v not_o alike_o express_o manifest_v to_o other_o people_n and_o to_o we_o that_o have_v the_o scripture_n yet_o they_o have_v so_o much_o manifest_v to_o they_o as_o shall_v condemn_v they_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v these_o why_o it_o must_v be_v so_o by_o first_o because_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v god_n sceptre_n whereby_o he_o govern_v and_o rule_v the_o church_n psal_n 110.2_o he_o shall_v bring_v the_o rod_n of_o thy_o power_n out_o of_o zion_n the_o rod_n of_o thy_o power_n that_o be_v the_o sceptre_n of_o thy_o power_n that_o sceptre_n whereby_o thou_o do_v authoritative_o and_o by_o power_n rule_n over_o the_o church_n and_o what_o be_v this_o sceptre_n it_o be_v the_o word_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v isa_n 2.3_o 4._o the_o law_n shall_v come_v out_o of_o zion_n so_o then_o the_o sceptre_n the_o rod_n of_o the_o word_n that_o be_v bring_v out_o of_o zion_n be_v the_o law_n that_o come_v out_o of_o zion_n the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o law_n of_o work_n and_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n for_o both_o these_o come_v out_o of_o zion_n the_o law_n of_o work_n as_o far_o as_o it_o be_v the_o rule_n of_o life_n and_o then_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n both_o come_v in_o to_o rule_v the_o church_n of_o god_n yea_o this_o be_v the_o rod_n of_o christ_n power_n therefore_o he_o will_v manifest_v his_o power_n and_o make_v all_o man_n subject_a to_o it_o what_o power_n there_o be_v a_o power_n of_o christ_n such_o a_o power_n whereby_o he_o manifest_v his_o own_o greatness_n and_o sovereignty_n over_o all_o his_o creature_n over_o those_o creature_n that_o have_v not_o sense_n that_o have_v not_o reason_n that_o be_v not_o this_o law_n but_o this_o power_n here_o the_o sceptre_n of_o his_o power_n be_v that_o whereby_o he_o manifest_v his_o sovereignty_n over_o reasonable_a creature_n angel_n and_o man_n therefore_o if_o they_o will_v not_o obey_v he_o yet_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sceptre_n of_o iron_n to_o crush_v they_o in_o piece_n therefore_o we_o see_v the_o very_a angel_n themselves_o that_o will_v not_o obey_v the_o direct_a commandment_n of_o god_n the_o rule_n of_o life_n in_o that_o particular_a place_n wherein_o they_o be_v they_o find_v it_o a_o sceptre_n to_o crush_v they_o down_o and_o they_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o their_o place_n for_o their_o sin_n so_o likewise_o man_n you_o see_v what_o the_o apostle_n peter_n speak_v of_o those_o that_o perish_v in_o the_o time_n of_o noah_n because_o they_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o word_n preach_v to_o they_o but_o they_o will_v be_v lawless_a and_o disobedient_a or_o like_a man_n that_o will_v be_v under_o no_o law_n therefore_o they_o feel_v the_o force_n of_o it_o in_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o law_n in_o the_o fruit_n and_o penalty_n of_o the_o law_n upon_o they_o so_o i_o say_v christ_n still_o rule_v by_o power_n in_o the_o law_n in_o so_o much_o as_o that_o when_o the_o law_n and_o command_n prevail_v not_o than_o the_o punishment_n prevail_v and_o they_o that_o will_v not_o subject_v themselves_o to_o the_o law_n they_o shall_v be_v subdue_v under_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o law_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n again_o second_o rule_n it_o must_v be_v that_o christ_n must_v proceed_v in_o judgement_n according_a to_o the_o law_n because_o the_o law_n be_v the_o rule_n now_o you_o know_v a_o rule_n be_v a_o note_n of_o distinction_n it_o be_v that_o that_o be_v straight_o &_o right_o in_o itself_o which_o do_v distinguish_v and_o discover_v thing_n that_o be_v crooked_a so_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v a_o straight_a rule_n in_o itself_o therefore_o whatsoever_o be_v contrary_a to_o it_o be_v crooked_a and_o perverse_a and_o he_o will_v declare_v a_o righteous_a proceed_n contrary_a to_o the_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n how_o by_o
