this_o be_v the_o first_o preparative_n for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v bring_v to_o see_v he_o stand_v in_o great_a need_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o christ_n blood_n so_o that_o the_o sinner_n cry_v out_o

see_v a_o throne_n of_o grace_n set_v up_o and_o that_o add_v comfort_n unto_o i_o if_o god_n have_v only_o a_o throne_n and_o seat_n of_o justice_n i_o be_v utter_o undo_v i_o see_v my_o debt_n be_v extreme_a great_a but_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v unto_o i_o that_o god_n of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n have_v erect_v a_o throne_n of_o grace_n a_o city_n of_o refuge_n that_o find_v myself_o in_o need_n my_o soul_n may_v fly_v unto_o and_o now_o to_o fit_v we_o for_o this_o god_n bless_a spirit_n work_v by_o his_o word_n to_o open_v unto_o we_o the_o law_n and_o our_o want_n to_o enlighten_v our_o understanding_n that_o we_o stand_v in_o great_a need_n to_o win_v our_o affection_n and_o open_v the_o gospel_n and_o its_o comfort_n therefore_o first_o for_o the_o time_n of_o need_n the_o

what_o be_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n of_o the_o church_n of_o faith_n of_o baptism_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n this_o ground_n of_o pelagianism_n be_v that_o for_o which_o the_o church_n abhor_v we_o when_o we_o shall_v undertake_v to_o bring_v a_o man_n to_o salvation_n without_o christ_n whereas_o if_o he_o be_v not_o under_o grace_n under_o christ_n he_o be_v

not_o speak_v without_o book_n see_v rom._n 7.14_o we_o know_v that_o the_o law_n be_v spiritual_a but_o i_o be_o carnal_a and_o then_o conclude_v o_o wretched_a man_n etc._n etc._n the_o law_n be_v

our_o work_n be_v spiritual_a without_o any_o carnality_n or_o touch_v of_o the_o fl●sh_n if_o in_o any_o point_n of_o our_o obedience_n there_o be_v a_o smell_n of_o the_o cask_n it_o be_v reject_v if_o the_o beer_n be_v never_o so_o good_a yet_o if_o it_o have_v a_o evil_a smatch_n it_o will_v not_o relish_v let_v our_o service_n have_v this_o savour_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o they_o will_v not_o relish_v in_o god_n nostril_n and_o thus_o the_o law_n be_v spiritual_a but_o we_o be_v carnal_a now_o it_o be_v otherwise_o here_o in_o the_o state_n of_o the_o gospel_n alas_o we_o be_v

etc._n yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o gospel_n accept_v our_o obedience_n though_o the_o law_n will_v not_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o why_o it_o be_v plain_a when_o the_o law_n come_v it_o
