a_o typical_a covenant_n 7._o it_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o bondage_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v typical_a for_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o observe_v a_o multitude_n of_o law_n and_o ordinance_n under_o that_o covenant_n beside_o the_o offering_n sacrifice_n which_o be_v a_o great_a bondage_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o typical_a covenant_n as_o you_o may_v see_v gal._n 4._o 24._o 30._o 8._o it_o make_v nothing_o perfect_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v typical_a for_o the_o law_n make_v nothing_o perfect_a but_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o a_o better_a hope_n do_v in_o the_o which_o hope_n we_o

therefore_o it_o be_v a_o typical_a covenant_n for_o there_o be_v a_o change_n of_o the_o priesthood_n there_o must_v also_o be_v a_o change_n of_o the_o law_n as_o you_o may_v see_v hebr._n 7._o 12._o for_o the_o first_o worship_n be_v but_o on_o foot_n till_o a_o better_a worship_n come_v and_o then_o it_o be_v to_o be_v do_v away_o as_o the_o ten_o word_n be_v but_o a_o typical_a worship_n for_o thou_o shall_v have_v none_o other_o god_n but_o i_o and_o thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v and_o that_o be_v this_o thou_o shall_v worship_v i_o according_a to_o my_o covenant_n and_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o that_o covenant_n for_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o worship_v i_o according_a to_o my_o covenant_n and_o according_a to_o the_o law_n thereof_o thou_o worship_v another_o god_n and_o do_v not_o worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n for_o if_o thou_o choose_v another_o way_n of_o worship_n than_o i_o have_v prescribe_v and_o change_v thy_o worship_n thou_o also_o change_v thy_o god_n and_o this_o be_v the_o full_a intent_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n a_o outward_a acknowledgement_n of_o god_n to_o all_o the_o world_n in_o obey_v those_o law_n and_o ordinance_n prescribe_v and_o set_v forth_o by_o he_o whereby_o they_o do_v acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v their_o god_n which_o worship_n god_n do_v accept_v of_o till_o a_o better_a come_v until_o the_o time_n of_o reformation_n as_o you_o may_v see_v heb._n 9_o 10._o and_o then_o the_o father_n will_v send_v the_o son_n the_o great_a minister_n of_o god_n who_o do_v administer_v a_o better_a covenant_n and_o better_a ordinance_n to_o the_o world_n and_o when_o that_o way_n be_v come_v they_o be_v to_o live_v no_o long_o to_o moses_n and_o his_o teach_n but_o be_v to_o live_v under_o the_o teach_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o father_n do_v confirm_v when_o he_o say_v this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n hear_v he_o mat._n 17._o 5._o but_o they_o reject_v the_o teach_n of_o the_o son_n and_o do_v not_o look_v to_o the_o end_n of_o that_o worship_n which_o be_v abolish_v by_o christ_n as_o you_o may_v see_v 2_o cor._n 3._o 13._o and_o so_o their_o mind_n be_v blind_v unto_o this_o day_n live_v in_o the_o shadow_n when_o they_o may_v have_v embrace_v the_o substance_n and_o therefore_o they_o miss_v salvation_n because_o they_o seek_v it_o by_o the_o first_o covenant_n and_o not_o by_o the_o second_o though_o they_o be_v very_o zealous_a to_o worship_n god_n according_a to_o the_o first_o covenant_n as_o you_o may_v see_v rom._n 9_o 31._o 32._o and_o so_o they_o stumble_v and_o fall_v as_o you_o may_v see_v ver_fw-la 33._o and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v but_o to_o coutinue_v till_o a_o better_a come_v in_o place_n for_o when_o christ_n come_v there_o be_v a_o change_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o all_o his_o teach_n and_o in_o his_o declare_v that_o neither_o at_o jerusalem_n nor_o in_o the_o mountain_n shall_v they_o worship_v god_n that_o be_v but_o a_o administration_n of_o the_o letter_n as_o you_o may_v see_v 2_o cor._n 3._o 6._o but_o they_o shall_v worship_v in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v a_o administration_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o you_o may_v see_v 2_o corinthian_n 3._o 8._o which_o be_v a_o better_a worship_n than_o the_o former_a be_v be_v a_o better_a covenant_n establish_v upon_o better_a promise_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v give_v you_o some_o reason_n wherefore_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v a_o typical_a covenant_n and_o now_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o how_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o take_v away_o a_o typical_a covenant_n and_o that_o be_v in_o these_o three_o respect_n 1._o he_o pacify_v the_o father_n wrath_n for_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n and_o second_o he_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o first_o coenant_fw-la and_o three_o he_o take_v away_o the_o first_o by_o establish_v the_o second_o and_o so_o i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o and_o first_o he_o pacify_v the_o father_n wrath_n for_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o terror_n as_o you_o may_v see_v exod._n 19_o for_o the_o law_n be_v add_v because_o of_o transgression_n till_o the_o seed_n shall_v come_v gal._n 3._o 19_o and_o so_o terrible_a be_v the_o sight_n thereof_o that_o it_o make_v moses_n quake_v and_o tremble_v to_o show_v that_o wrath_n be_v go_v out_o against_o sin_n heb._n 12._o 20._o 21._o be_v a_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n rom._n 8._o 2._o now_o christ_n come_v and_o take_v away_o the_o enmity_n and_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n john_n 1._o 29._o and_o so_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n that_o be_v dead_a wherein_o we_o be_v hold_v rom._n 7._o 6._o and_o have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n gal._n 3._o 13._o and_o have_v break_v down_o the_o middle-wall_n of_o partition_n and_o have_v abolish_v and_o take_v away_o the_o law_n of_o enmity_n eph._n 2._o 15._o 16._o by_o blot_v out_o the_o hand-writing_n of_o ordinance_n and_o all_o the_o jewish_a worship_n which_o be_v against_o we_o and_o have_v spoil_v or_o kill_v that_o enmity_n that_o be_v between_o god_n and_o as_o by_o reason_n of_o sin_n and_o have_v make_v a_o free_a passage_n between_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n have_v conquer_v all_o opposition_n col._n 2._o 15._o 16._o that_o thereby_o we_o may_v come_v with_o all_o boldness_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n heb._n 4._o 16._o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o first_o covenant_n because_o it_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o bondage_n and_o the_o ordinance_n thereof_o and_o so_o he_o give_v we_o right_a and_o freedom_n to_o embrace_v a_o covenant_n of_o love_n and_o mercy_n that_o be_v more_o easy_a and_o comfortable_a to_o we_o second_o he_o have_v take_v away_o the_o first_o covenant_n in_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n for_o the_o first_o covenant_n do_v require_v a_o perfect_a work_n of_o a_o perfect_a man_n but_o there_o be_v ●one_n that_o be_v able_a to_o do_v a_o perfect_a work_n for_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o be_v all_o go_v astray_o and_o be_v all_o go_v out_o of_o the_o way_n so_o that_o there_o be_v none_o that_o do_v good_a no_z not_o one_o as_o rom._n 3._o 12._o so_o that_o none_o be_v able_a to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n and_o therefore_o christ_n be_v to_o come_v to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v a_o perfect_a man_n without_o spot_n or_o blemish_n and_o so_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v a_o perfect_a work_n to_o fulfil_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n for_o the_o first_o covenant_n exact_v a_o work_n of_o righteousness_n and_o holiness_n which_o none_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v till_o christ_n come_v who_o when_o he_o come_v do_v all_o that_o the_o first_o covenant_n do_v exact_a in_o do_v such_o work_n as_o never_o man_n do_v and_o so_o fulfil_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o all_o the_o righteousness_n and_o holiness_n thereof_o and_o so_o he_o be_v the_o

so_o that_o thou_o see_v the_o word_n not_o do_v imply_v something_o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o have_v write_v unto_o you_o not_z to_o keep_v company_n with_o such_o and_o such_o and_o yet_o not_o altogether_o refrain_v for_o than_o thou_o must_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o thou_o see_v the_o word_n not_o do_v imply_v something_o for_o the_o word_n not_o and_o the_o word_n nothing_o be_v all_o one_o and_o signify_v one_o thing_n and_o so_o paul_n be_v not_o send_v to_o preach_v that_o be_v not_o only_o send_v to_o baptise_v but_o to_o preach_v christ_n tell_v his_o
