as_o hard_o as_o to_o wash_v a_o blackmore_n white_a now_o this_o people_n be_v a_o custom_a four_o thousand_o year_n to_o serve_v god_n with_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o temple_n and_o jerusalem_n it_o be_v not_o easy_a to_o break_v they_o of_o that_o custom_n therefore_o the_o lord_n christ_n come_v and_o when_o he_o will_v set_v up_o his_o worship_n he_o speak_v exceed_v fair_o of_o that_o outward_a worship_n because_o they_o have_v feed_v so_o long_o upon_o it_o that_o they_o dote_v as_o we_o at_o this_o day_n as_o they_o will_v make_v a_o curious_a outward_a worship_n as_o of_o old_a they_o wring_v and_o wrest_v the_o scripture_n to_o make_v it_o fair_a and_o delicate_a and_o curious_a as_o that_o that_o god_n will_v have_v of_o they_o but_o christ_n design_n be_v to_o set_v up_o a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n he_o show_v that_o as_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n unless_o there_o be_v something_o internal_a the_o external_a do_v not_o please_v god_n my_o soul_n abhor_v your_o sacrifice_n etc._n etc._n so_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n much_o more_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o regard_v outward_a worship_n at_o all_o without_o the_o inward_a and_o the_o inward_a be_v almost_o all_o that_o god_n look_v after_o therefore_o consider_v a_o few_o place_n of_o scripture_n gal._n 5.6_o there_o be_v great_a question_n about_o ceremony_n and_o outward_a thing_n say_v the_o apostle_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n or_o ununcircumcision_n but_o faith_n that_o work_v by_o love_n for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n say_v he_o that_o be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n neither_o circumcision_n nor_o uncircumcision_n avail_v down_o external_o to_o be_v look_v to_o as_o for_o as_o god_n have_v let_v they_o down_o but_o faith_n that_o work_v by_o love_n talk_v not_o of_o outward_a thing_n stand_v not_o so_o much_o upon_o they_o not_o but_o that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n must_v look_v to_o external_o as_o far_o as_o god_n have_v set_v they_o down_o but_o talk_v not_o so_o much_o of_o they_o but_o faith_n that_o work_v by_o love_n see_v there_o be_v that_o so_o in_o gal._n 6.15_o the_o same_o word_n almost_o for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n or_o uncircumcision_n but_o a_o new_a creature_n in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n he_o look_v not_o whether_o man_n be_v circumcise_v or_o uncircumcised_a but_o whether_o they_o be_v new_a creature_n so_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.17_o there_o be_v the_o same_o word_n almost_o the_o apostle_n point_v out_o unto_o we_o how_o much_o god_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n regard_v inward_a worship_n therefore_o we_o see_v in_o rom._n 14._o where_o there_o be_v great_a controversy_n concern_v the_o eat_n of_o herb_n and_o the_o keep_n of_o day_n paul_n answer_v not_o direct_o but_o say_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v not_o in_o these_o thing_n but_o in_o righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o strive_v about_o these_o thing_n but_o go_v to_o the_o inward_a worship_n see_v that_o there_o be_v righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o in_o heb._n 13._o when_o there_o be_v clash_v about_o these_o outward_a thing_n it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n say_v he_o that_o the_o heart_n be_v establish_v with_o grace_n and_o so_o in_o timothy_n bodily_a excercise_n profit_v little_a but_o godliness_n be_v profitable_a for_o all_o thing_n therefore_o the_o design_n of_o god_n be_v to_o set_v up_o a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n the_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o heart_n that_o we_o may_v worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n the_o lord_n have_v give_v more_o liberty_n and_o be_v more_o spare_v in_o lay_v down_o of_o external_a worship_n last_o this_o be_v another_o reason_n tho_o i_o can_v give_v many_o more_o that_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n &_o they_o be_v different_a in_o custom_n in_o climate_n in_o constitution_n substance_n the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o different_a nation_n christ_n tie_v they_o chief_o to_o that_o substance_n and_o disposition_n christ_n tie_v they_o in_o his_o law_n for_o the_o substance_n so_o leave_v the_o rest_n to_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o his_o people_n to_o be_v determine_v according_a to_o the_o best_a advantage_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n as_o for_o instance_n it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o make_v a_o law_n for_o all_o england_n and_o for_o all_o the_o county_n and_o town_n that_o that_o shall_v be_v good_a for_o one_o county_n that_o be_v for_o another_o and_o for_o one_o town_n that_o be_v for_o another_o but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v to_o make_v a_o law_n for_o spain_n and_o france_n and_o italy_n and_o turkey_n &_o for_o all_o the_o world_n that_o be_v nation_n cross_v and_o contrary_a one_o to_o another_o in_o their_o climate_n and_o disposition_n that_o law_n that_o be_v good_a for_o one_o kingdom_n will_v destroy_v another_o so_o here_o when_o christ_n make_v law_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n there_o be_v but_o one_o nation_n and_o a_o little_a nation_n and_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o to_o remove_v from_o that_o nation_n therefore_o he_o come_v to_o particular_n but_o the_o gospel_n now_o be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n he_o have_v leave_v a_o latitude_n for_o his_o people_n that_o they_o may_v apply_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o country_n and_o nation_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n as_o for_o instance_n baptism_n baptism_n say_v christ_n baptise_v all_o nation_n that_o be_v go_v and_o use_v water_n for_o their_o wash_n for_o whatever_o man_n find_v in_o the_o word_n i_o speak_v not_o of_o now_o go_v use_v water_n for_o a_o spiritual_a end_n to_o purge_v their_o body_n to_o signify_v the_o purge_n of_o the_o soul_n if_o christ_n have_v tie_v man_n to_o go_v into_o jordan_n as_o in_o that_o country_n it_o be_v so_o hot_a they_o may_v go_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o comfort_n but_o if_o christ_n have_v make_v baptism_n such_o a_o ordinance_n as_o that_o in_o all_o climate_n and_o country_n and_o region_n they_o must_v go_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o a_o river_n we_o know_v in_o some_o climate_n it_o will_v have_v be_v present_a death_n as_o with_o we_o in_o this_o climate_n at_o some_o time_n of_o the_o year_n to_o be_v put_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o the_o thames_n it_o will_v be_v death_n at_o other_o not_z therefore_o christ_n lay_v down_o the_o substance_n and_o the_o end_n and_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o sound_a preach_v he_o leave_v the_o rest_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o his_o people_n to_o apply_v again_o to_o instance_n in_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n the_o lord_n supper_n the_o lord_n take_v bread_n and_o wine_n and_o bless_v and_o break_v and_o give_v they_o and_o the_o drift_n of_o all_o the_o business_n be_v to_o show_v the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o shed_n of_o his_o blood_n now_o he_o have_v bind_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v break_v bread_n and_o drink_v wine_n that_o may_v represent_v the_o thing_n but_o he_o have_v not_o bind_v we_o to_o bread_n so_o proper_o call_v or_o to_o wine_n proper_o so_o call_v for_o there_o be_v some_o country_n that_o have_v neither_o bread_n nor_o wine_n but_o only_a root_n that_o they_o call_v bread_n and_o they_o have_v water_n for_o their_o drink_n now_o if_o christ_n have_v say_v it_o must_v be_v true_a bread_n and_o true_a and_o real_a wine_n that_o must_v do_v the_o deed_n these_o people_n can_v never_o have_v the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o to_o be_v limit_v to_o one_o country_n but_o to_o be_v spread_v to_o many_o nation_n christ_n have_v leave_v a_o latitude_n for_o the_o conveniency_n of_o all_o nation_n so_o you_o have_v the_o doctrine_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o use_v but_o i_o must_v leave_v they_o for_o another_o day_n encouragement_n for_o sinner_n to_o come_v unto_o christ_n 1_o cor._n 10.23_o all_o thing_n be_v lawful_a for_o i_o but_o all_o thing_n be_v not_o expedient_a etc._n etc._n have_v open_v these_o word_n to_o you_o the_o last_o day_n i_o observe_v these_o three_o doctrine_n which_o by_o the_o help_n of_o god_n i_o shall_v speak_v of_o the_o first_o be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a to_o the_o saint_n now_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o be_v not_o to_o they_o under_o the_o old_a and_o the_o second_o be_v that_o of_o those_o many_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a to_o the_o saint_n now_o there_o be_v but_o
comparrison_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n yet_o i_o may_v say_v of_o outward_a thing_n as_o far_o as_o christ_n have_v enjoin_v they_o as_o christ_n say_v of_o tthe_a mint_n and_o annise_v when_o he_o speak_v of_o righteousness_n these_o thing_n ought_v you_o to_o have_v one_o but_o the_o other_o you_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v leave_v undo_v so_o this_o be_v the_o main_a work_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o do_v and_o it_o be_v bless_v to_o see_v a_o saint_n make_v that_o his_o main_a study_n but_o if_o god_n make_v law_n and_o give_v command_n about_o external_a thing_n outward_a thing_n i_o must_v not_o neglect_v that_o neither_o it_o be_v as_o one_o observe_v as_o with_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o world_n they_o both_o see_v the_o misery_n but_o the_o saint_n begin_v to_o study_v the_o cause_n of_o contention_n and_o the_o old_a say_n be_v happy_a be_v he_o that_o know_v the_o cause_n contention_n one_o cause_n of_o contention_n one_o main_a cause_n of_o contention_n among_o we_o be_v god_n come_v now_o with_o more_o light_n than_o we_o have_v before_o we_o have_v more_o and_o more_o but_o this_o light_n be_v not_o a_o full_a light_n i_o mean_v thus_o this_o light_n come_v and_o shine_v but_o in_o part_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o we_o that_o be_v we_o see_v part_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o part_n we_o see_v not_o and_o while_o we_o learn_v one_o part_n we_o forget_v another_o part_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v ordinary_a among_o christian_n while_o they_o learn_v faith_n and_o justification_n they_o forget_v purity_n and_o holiness_n while_o they_o learn_v church-discipline_n they_o forget_v godliness_n while_o they_o learn_v holiness_n within_o they_o forget_v obedience_n without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n come_v into_o the_o soul_n of_o people_n now_o a_o day_n as_o the_o sun_n shine_v on_o the_o earth_n how_o be_v that_o you_o know_v when_o the_o sun_n shine_v in_o our_o horizon_n it_o do_v not_o shine_v to_o the_o other_o end_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v night_n with_o they_o when_o it_o be_v day_n with_o we_o so_o when_o the_o light_n show_v one_o thing_n another_o truth_n be_v lose_v and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o division_n light_n be_v come_v but_o it_o be_v not_o a_o full_a light_n it_o reveal_v not_o all_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o teach_v one_o one_o thing_n and_o another_o another_z we_o see_v not_o all_o together_o this_o be_v one_o thing_n wherein_o man_n mistake_v though_o i_o much_o commend_v they_o for_o their_o prize_v of_o spiritual_a thing_n yet_o if_o their_o be_v a_o real_a command_n of_o god_n in_o outward_a thing_n i_o humble_o beseech_v you_o that_o you_o will_v not_o disdain_v and_o despise_v it_o that_o be_v all_o i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o they_o there_o be_v a_o second_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o mistake_v on_o the_o left_a hand_n law_n 2_o those_o that_o abolish_v the_o moral_n law_n and_o make_v the_o rule_n wide_o than_o it_o be_v those_o that_o go_v far_o than_o those_o that_o be_v that_o do_v not_o only_o slight_a external_a worship_n &_o government_n etc._n etc._n as_o far_o as_o god_n have_v lay_v it_o down_o but_o break_v down_o the_o pale_n even_o to_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o god_n and_o think_v that_o the_o way_n be_v now_o so_o wide_o that_o even_o the_o ten_o commandment_n that_o the_o moral_a law_n itself_o be_v do_v away_o there_o be_v some_o conceive_v so_o but_o concern_v that_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o subject_n that_o i_o can_v prove_v more_o full_o with_o strong_a argument_n yet_o i_o will_v not_o trouble_v you_o nor_o myself_o now_o and_o i_o show_v before_o how_o christ_n come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o moral_a law_n neither_o for_o that_o use_n that_o paul_n make_v of_o it_o to_o reveal_v sin_n to_o make_v we_o esteem_v of_o christ_n or_o to_o be_v a_o light_n the_o spirit_n be_v within_o for_o they_o be_v not_o contradictory_n as_o some_o simple_o think_v and_o speak_v but_o the_o spirit_n within_o and_o the_o law_n without_o be_v a_o lantern_n only_o the_o damnation_n be_v go_v but_o there_o be_v other_o motive_n to_o obey_v it_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v but_o the_o law_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o pass_v so_o now_o you_o see_v two_o sort_n and_o i_o hope_v if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o here_o that_o they_o will_v also_o take_v their_o share_n for_o if_o every_o one_o will_v here_o with_o humility_n and_o take_v his_o part_n i_o hope_v there_o will_v soon_o be_v a_o end_n of_o most_o of_o our_o contention_n the_o three_o sort_n go_v far_o than_o those_o on_o the_o left_a hand_n spirit_n 3_o those_o that_o allow_v outward_a profaneness_n &_o only_o serve_v god_n in_o their_o spirit_n they_o make_v it_o so_o broad_a this_o all_o thing_n be_v lawful_a that_o not_o only_o in_o point_n of_o government_n or_o of_o the_o moral_a law_n for_o those_o that_o hold_v against_o the_o moral_a law_n they_o hold_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v the_o thing_n but_o not_o upon_o the_o same_o motive_n they_o hold_v that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v whoremonger_n and_o drunkard_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o three_o sort_n say_v if_o we_o worship_v god_n in_o our_o spirit_n it_o be_v no_o matter_n what_o we_o do_v with_o our_o body_n we_o may_v worship_n god_n in_o our_o spirit_n and_o go_v to_o mass_n and_o do_v any_o thing_n the_o body_n be_v but_o as_o a_o tool_n in_o a_o carpenter_n hand_n it_o be_v not_o worth_a the_o while_n to_o confute_v those_o i_o can_v give_v many_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_n christ_n have_v redeem_v soul_n and_o body_n therefore_o we_o must_v glorify_v god_n in_o both_o and_o you_o know_v the_o soul_n and_o body_n that_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n shall_v be_v damn_v the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o therefore_o the_o body_n have_v need_v to_o look_v to_o it_o as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n and_o we_o be_v command_v to_o bear_v witness_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n how_o can_v we_o do_v it_o if_o the_o body_n may_v do_v any_o thing_n we_o need_v never_o suffer_v persecution_n as_o all_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n must_v if_o i_o will_v be_v content_a to_o serve_v christ_n in_o my_o soul_n only_o i_o will_v not_o suffer_v persecution_n i_o will_v go_v to_o mass_n and_o swear_v and_o be_v drink_v etc._n etc._n again_o we_o be_v call_v to_o be_v like_o christ_n and_o he_o be_v holy_a in_o soul_n and_o body_n how_o can_v we_o be_v like_o he_o if_o we_o will_v be_v holy_a in_o our_o soul_n only_o and_o not_o in_o our_o body_n nay_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o mouth_n speak_v that_o be_v if_o the_o soul_n be_v holy_a the_o body_n will_v be_v so_o too_o if_o there_o be_v wickedness_n in_o the_o heart_n there_o must_v be_v wickedness_n in_o the_o body_n and_o if_o there_o be_v holiness_n in_o the_o soul_n there_o will_v be_v also_o in_o the_o body_n if_o any_o hold_v a_o opinion_n to_o make_v contention_n by_o it_o let_v they_o take_v it_o as_o a_o admonition_n from_o the_o lord_n to_o consider_v what_o they_o do_v thus_o you_o see_v the_o error_n on_o the_o lefthand_n as_o i_o desire_v power_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o tell_v you_o what_o think_v so_o i_o desire_v that_o you_o will_v endeavour_v to_o understand_v the_o error_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n be_v contrary_a to_o this_o hand_n 2_o error_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n when_o as_o paul_n say_v all_o thing_n be_v lawful_a as_o the_o one_o make_v it_o universal_a that_o every_o thing_n be_v lawful_a so_o the_o other_o make_v nothing_o lawful_a almost_o my_o meaning_n be_v this_o they_o on_o the_o right_a hand_n have_v a_o old_a testament_n spirit_n mark_v that_o word_n for_o from_o thence_o be_v the_o contention_n have_v a_o spirit_n not_o suitable_a to_o the_o new_a testament_n though_o mistake_v i_o not_o they_o differ_v but_o in_o degree_n chief_o and_o principal_o they_o make_v law_n and_o tie_n and_o

come_v chief_o the_o contention_n and_o controversy_n of_o these_o time_n between_o two_o sort_n of_o people_n you_o know_v who_o they_o be_v though_o i_o constant_o conceive_v that_o in_o the_o
