you_o have_v it_o 2_o cor._n 5._o i_o judge_v no_o man_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n if_o christ_n jesus_n be_v here_o again_o i_o will_v not_o look_v on_o he_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n now_o when_o he_o say_v they_o mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o that_o be_v they_o judge_v of_o thing_n in_o a_o earthly_a fleshly_a way_n they_o judge_v of_o the_o worth_n of_o thing_n by_o the_o fleshliness_n not_o by_o the_o spiritualness_n of_o they_o a_o godly_a man_n do_v not_o so_o all_o that_o he_o account_v of_o in_o the_o world_n be_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n be_v it_o not_o for_o that_o this_o world_n will_v be_v a_o hell_n to_o he_o and_o he_o judge_v of_o every_o man_n as_o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o account_v of_o he_o as_o without_o that_o not_o worth_a any_o thing_n a_o carnal_a man_n judge_v of_o thing_n carnal_o as_o they_o be_v fleshly_a and_o carnal_a and_o as_o old_a adam_n be_v set_v up_o so_o he_o judge_v by_o carnal_a argument_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n thus_o i_o have_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v open_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o i_o will_v only_o at_o this_o time_n name_n one_o use_v and_o leave_v the_o rest_n till_o god_n give_v another_o opportunity_n you_o have_v hear_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o what_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v and_o what_o it_o be_v to_o mind_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o we_o may_v judge_v of_o the_o one_o by_o the_o other_o use_v 1_o now_o the_o lesson_n or_o the_o use_n as_o we_o call_v it_o be_v this_o hence_o we_o may_v learn_v and_o see_v what_o the_o reason_n be_v why_o divers_a people_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o mean_v use_v even_o among_o we_o in_o this_o place_n and_o in_o other_o place_n why_o they_o can_v come_v to_o understand_v any_o thing_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n because_o they_o mind_n they_o not_o and_o why_o do_v they_o not_o mind_v they_o because_o they_o be_v fleshly_a i_o have_v wonder_v oft_o time_n and_o i_o do_v believe_v in_o my_o conscience_n that_o have_v i_o be_v here_o but_o a_o twelvemonth_n and_o have_v take_v any_o natural_a thing_n under_o heaven_n have_v i_o read_v a_o lecture_n of_o philosophy_n or_o of_o logic_n or_o any_o thing_n in_o your_o trade_n or_o state-business_n there_o be_v none_o either_o great_a or_o small_a but_o can_v have_v give_v some_o account_n what_o the_o man_n have_v say_v and_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o among_o you_o that_o though_o we_o have_v be_v speak_v to_o you_o as_o the_o lord_n have_v enable_v we_o almost_o these_o two_o year_n yet_o you_o be_v as_o ignorant_a and_o as_o unknowing_a in_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v say_v as_o if_o you_o have_v be_v asleep_a or_o have_v be_v in_o your_o grave_n all_o this_o while_n it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o no_o word_n shall_v stick_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n of_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v if_o we_o shall_v ask_v some_o among_o we_o do_v you_o remember_v any_o one_o passage_n or_o any_o one_o thing_n that_o the_o preacher_n have_v speak_v of_o these_o two_o year_n they_o remember_v not_o one_o word_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n you_o do_v not_o mind_v it_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o word_n see_v they_o see_v not_o and_o hear_v they_o hear_v not_o that_o be_v the_o plague_n upon_o that_o people_n in_o isaiah_n when_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v take_v

see_v not_o his_o eye_n be_v on_o he_o but_o his_o mind_n be_v not_o he_o be_v think_v serious_o something_o else_o so_o hear_v they_o hear_v not_o many_o time_n a_o man_n hear_v a_o sound_n and_o be_v near_o enough_o yet_o hear_v he_o hear_v not_o so_o it_o be_v with_o many_o among_o we_o the_o lord_n pity_v they_o my_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o burst_v every_o day_n more_o and_o more_o to_o consider_v and_o think_v of_o it_o hear_v they_o hear_v not_o all_o the_o year_n long_o there_o be_v not_o one_o notion_n or_o exhortation_n from_o the_o word_n that_o stick_v on_o their_o soul_n the_o reason_n be_v they_o mind_n not_o they_o mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n they_o be_v feed_v some_o lust_n they_o be_v provide_v for_o some_o fancy_n or_o when_o they_o be_v best_a they_o be_v contemplate_v to_o set_v up_o a_o way_n of_o justification_n by_o work_n and_o all_o because_o they_o mind_n not_o these_o thing_n therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n isa_n 1._o hear_v o_o heaven_n and_o give_v ear_n o_o earth_n i_o may_v well_o say_v so_o of_o divers_a among_o we_o hear_v o_o heaven_n and_o give_v ear_n o_o earth_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v i_o have_v nourish_v and_o bring_v up_o child_n and_o they_o have_v rebel_v against_o i_o the_o ox_n know_v his_o owner_n and_o the_o ass_n his_o master_n crib_n but_o israel_n do_v not_o know_v my_o people_n do_v not_o consider_v hear_v o_o heaven_n and_o give_v ear_n o_o earth_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o expect_v that_o heaven_n shall_v hear_v and_o that_o earth_n shall_v hear_v as_o soon_o as_o this_o people_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o further_o from_o hear_v then_o heaven_n and_o nothing_o dull_a than_o the_o earth_n and_o yet_o the_o prophet_n will_v preach_v to_o heaven_n and_o earth_n before_o he_o will_v to_o this_o dull_a people_n and_o say_v he_o the_o ox_n and_o the_o ass_n know_v their_o owner_n but_o my_o people_n have_v not_o know_v i_o why_o they_o do_v not_o consider_v they_o do_v not_o mind_n so_o you_o do_v not_o mind_v what_o we_o speak_v before_o that_o you_o that_o be_v drunkard_n and_o whoremonger_n and_o swearer_n that_o waste_v your_o estate_n and_o soul_n and_o body_n in_o the_o service_n of_o the_o devil_n that_o you_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n and_o must_v perish_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o you_o do_v that_o be_v please_v to_o god_n till_o you_o be_v bear_v again_o do_v you_o ever_o mind_v these_o thing_n and_o lay_v they_o to_o heart_n do_v you_o ever_o say_v yonder_o man_n speak_v real_o and_o tell_v we_o the_o truth_n but_o you_o go_v home_o when_o sermon_n be_v do_v and_o say_v there_o be_v a_o great_a company_n a_o throng_n and_o he_o preach_v a_o little_a too_o long_o and_o we_o must_v go_v to_o he_o again_o after_o dinner_n and_o thus_o you_o mind_n not_o the_o lord_n jesus_n pity_v you_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o you_o be_v ignorant_a and_o will_v be_v world_n without_o end_n because_o you_o mind_n not_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n also_o why_o you_o have_v carnal_a people_n that_o care_n no●_n for_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n they_o care_v not_o to_o use_v those_o mean_n of_o grace_n that_o the_o poor_a saint_n do_v why_o they_o mind_n not_o spiritual_a thing_n they_o be_v like_o gallio_n he_o care_v not_o for_o those_o thing_n he_o be_v busy_a about_o natural_a thing_n it_o be_v likely_a he_o be_v a_o wise_a judicious_a man_n but_o he_o care_v not_o for_o these_o thing_n so_o to_o hear_v sermon_n or_o discourse_n or_o conference_n of_o thy_o neighbour_n or_o at_o thy_o table_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n thou_o be_v like_o gallio_n thou_o care_v not_o for_o they_o and_o therefore_o thou_o respect_v they_o not_o therefore_o desire_v the_o lord_n to_o put_v his_o law_n in_o thy_o mind_n o_o the_o main_a misery_n of_o a_o man_n be_v in_o his_o mind_n the_o man_n be_v nothing_o but_o his_o mind_n in_o a_o manner_n the_o main_a happiness_n of_o a_o man_n be_v in_o his_o mind_n if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v there_o therefore_o before_o ever_o thou_o can_v have_v thy_o heart_n good_a or_o thy_o wish_n or_o prayer_n good_a thou_o must_v get_v a_o good_a mind_n desire_v god_n to_o put_v his_o law_n in_o thy_o mind_n for_o there_o be_v the_o first_o and_o main_a work_n so_o also_o for_o the_o poor_a saint_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v so_o wean_v from_o the_o world_n those_o that_o be_v spiritual_a christian_n you_o can_v easy_o cozen_v and_o cheat_v they_o and_o take_v away_o all_o from_o they_o and_o they_o bear_v it_o very_o well_o why_o so_o they_o mind_n not_o earthly_a thing_n fleshly_a thing_n let_v the_o devil_n come_v with_o all_o the_o policy_n and_o power_n of_o hell_n to_o cheat_v they_o in_o
i_o will_v avoid_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a &_o do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o mark_v it_o this_o be_v more_o natural_a to_o man_n then_o sin_n it_o be_v more_o natural_a to_o man_n to_o be_v righteous_a then_o to_o be_v sinful_a because_o he_o be_v righteous_a before_o he_o be_v sinful_a the_o liquor_n that_o be_v put_v first_o into_o a_o vessel_n the_o vessel_n keep_v the_o taste_n of_o that_o long_o than_o of_o any_o that_o be_v put_v into_o it_o afterward_o now_o god_n at_o first_o make_v man_n righteous_a and_o man_n be_v more_o apt_a to_o fall_v to_o that_o kind_n of_o righteousness_n then_o to_o any_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a misery_n of_o people_n every_o one_o in_o some_o fashion_n or_o other_o this_o be_v his_o business_n he_o go_v about_o to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o there_o you_o shall_v have_v one_o pray_v and_o another_o cry_v and_o another_o keep_n so_o many_o fast_n and_o day_n of_o humiliation_n upon_o humiliation_n and_o the_o end_n of_o all_o be_v if_o man_n have_v eye_n to_o see_v it_o his_o endeavour_n be_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o endeavour_v to_o scrape_v and_o to_o get_v up_o a_o righteousness_n to_o pay_v the_o law_n of_o god_n you_o can_v conceive_v and_o comprehend_v how_o subject_a you_o and_o i_o be_v to_o this_o misery_n and_o how_o this_o be_v in_o your_o very_a bone_n as_o it_o be_v and_o i_o fear_v true_o it_o be_v the_o great_a part_n of_o your_o religion_n and_o the_o most_o of_o your_o profession_n be_v nothing_o but_o to_o endeavour_v to_o get_v a_o righteousness_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n though_o some_o do_v it_o in_o a_o close_o fine_a way_n than_o other_o now_o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v this_o word_n lay_v down_o this_o thorough_o in_o your_o heart_n that_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n so_o to_o do_v and_o who_o will_v go_v about_o a_o vain_a thing_n a_o thing_n that_o he_o shall_v never_o bring_v to_o perfection_n for_o it_o be_v not_o every_o paltry_a righteousness_n that_o can_v fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o ten_o thousand_o fasting_n that_o can_v fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o pray_v in_o your_o family_n three_o time_n a_o day_n that_o can_v fulfil_v the_o law_n i_o speak_v not_o against_o these_o thing_n in_o their_o right_a way_n and_o course_n but_o all_o will_v not_o do_v in_o this_o respect_n for_o if_o you_o fail_v but_o once_o if_o you_o miss_v but_o one_o farthing_n you_o be_v go_v if_o you_o have_v but_o one_o bad_a thought_n in_o all_o your_o life_n you_o be_v lose_v therefore_o i_o will_v have_v you_o despair_n of_o get_v by_o your_o own_o do_v and_o suffer_v any_o righteousness_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n never_o go_v about_o it_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v go_v and_o build_v a_o castle_n in_o the_o air_n it_o be_v reason_n and_o argument_n enough_o in_o any_o natural_a business_n to_o make_v a_o man_n desist_v to_o tell_v he_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n it_o be_v a_o work_n that_o will_v never_o come_v to_o perfection_n therefore_o desist_v and_o give_v over_o and_o think_v of_o some_o other_o course_n why_o shall_v we_o not_o prevail_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n as_o well_o as_o in_o natural_a let_v every_o man_n lie_v down_o this_o for_o a_o certain_a truth_n for_o a_o certain_a conclusion_n in_o his_o soul_n that_o i_o be_v as_o good_a be_v a_o sinner_n as_o a_o righteous_a man_n in_o my_o own_o person_n in_o respect_n of_o fulfil_v the_o law_n i_o be_o sure_a i_o shall_v never_o do_v it_o but_o as_o a_o snowball_n the_o more_o it_o be_v roll_v the_o big_a it_o grow_v so_o the_o more_o you_o go_v on_o and_o endeavour_v to_o get_v a_o righteousness_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n the_o far_a off_o you_o will_v be_v for_o as_o i_o say_v if_o you_o fail_v but_o once_o you_o be_v guilty_a of_o all_o and_o as_o you_o can_v reach_v it_o by_o do_v so_o not_o by_o suffer_v for_o what_o man_n have_v miss_v in_o do_v they_o shall_v be_v suffer_v to_o all_o eternity_n in_o hell_n but_o the_o law_n be_v so_o holy_a and_o god_n be_v so_o glorious_a who_o law_n you_o have_v break_v that_o when_o you_o have_v suffer_v million_o yet_o the_o debt_n will_v be_v still_o unpaid_a therefore_o who_o will_v be_v so_o mad_a as_o paul_n call_v the_o galatian_n mad_a galatian_n who_o have_v bewitch_v you_o it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o madness_n for_o any_o man_n to_o attempt_v in_o his_o own_o person_n by_o do_v or_o suffer_v to_o fulfil_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n or_o to_o justify_v and_o save_v his_o soul_n you_o will_v say_v we_o grant_v it_o be_v true_a and_o therefore_o the_o papist_n be_v much_o to_o blame_v that_o labour_n to_o be_v justify_v by_o their_o work_n they_o be_v so_o and_o so_o be_v many_o other_o much_o to_o blame_v beside_o they_o and_o bless_a be_v that_o man_n or_o woman_n among_o you_o whosoever_o it_o be_v that_o do_v not_o in_o some_o measure_n in_o his_o own_o

the_o world_n to_o come_v to_o jesus_n christ_n to_o get_v into_o christ_n to_o receive_v jesus_n christ_n and_o in_o he_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v after_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o righteousness_n that_o have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n let_v every_o man_n say_v i_o see_v here_o be_v law_n that_o god_n have_v lay_v upon_o i_o i_o be_o subject_a to_o it_o and_o this_o law_n must_v be_v fulfil_v there_o be_v no_o help_n for_o it_o every_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o it_o he_o must_v have_v a_o righteousness_n to_o satisfy_v the_o law_n heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o rather_o than_o that_o shall_v not_o be_v now_o there_o be_v but_o three_o way_n to_o fulfil_v it_o either_o in_o my_o own_o person_n here_o or_o to_o suffer_v for_o ever_o in_o hell_n or_o else_o to_o believe_v in_o and_o receive_v another_o that_o may_v do_v it_o for_o i_o now_o we_o neither_o our_o by_o do_v or_o suffer_v can_v get_v such_o a_o righteousness_n that_o be_v clear_a therefore_o there_o be_v but_o one_o way_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v a_o perfect_a righteousness_n in_o he_o he_o have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n get_v into_o he_o and_o be_v one_o with_o he_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o say_v perfect_o with_o paul_n that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n may_v be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v but_o that_o one_o way_n now_o when_o there_o be_v but_o one_o way_n methinks_v there_o need_v no_o deliberation_n or_o consultation_n in_o worldly_a thing_n when_o there_o be_v divers_a way_n and_o

that_o be_v certain_a use_v it_o not_o for_o the_o offence_n of_o your_o brethren_n as_o some_o there_o be_v that_o when_o they_o hear_v they_o be_v free_a be_v ready_a to_o say_v i_o care_v not_o

advise_v you_o to_o that_o be_v spiritual_a that_o the_o lord_n have_v reveal_v a_o little_a of_o the_o gospel_n to_o it_o be_v this_o that_o you_o will_v endeavour_v to_o walk_v humble_o o_o walk_v humble_o why_o so_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o why_o because_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v under_o the_o law_n he_o shall_v be_v twenty_o year_n strive_v for_o a_o little_a knowledge_n or_o grace_n and_o shall_v hardly_o get_v they_o but_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o a_o man_n come_v right_o to_o christ_n and_o to_o know_v he_o than_o there_o be_v such_o a_o flood_n of_o grace_n and_o such_o abundance_n of_o revelation_n it_o be_v the_o scripture_n word_n there_o be_v such_o abundance_n of_o manifestation_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n when_o they_o begin_v to_o come_v in_o that_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n then_o to_o keep_v the_o soul_n down_o for_o spiritual_a thing_n when_o they_o come_v in_o right_o when_o the_o floodgate_n be_v open_a they_o come_v in_o as_o wave_v one_o upon_o the_o neck_n of_o another_o for_o spiritual_a gospel-truth_n multiply_v in_o the_o soul_n a_o thousand-fold_n one_o lesson_n from_o another_o and_o one_o scripture_n open_v another_o and_o then_o there_o be_v no_o end_n and_o then_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o keep_v the_o soul_n humble_a therefore_o in_o 2_o cor._n 12._o when_o paul_n be_v wrap_v into_o the_o three_o heaven_n because_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o revelation_n that_o he_o have_v see_v for_o he_o have_v see_v and_o hear_v thing_n that_o he_o can_v not_o utter_v and_o speak_v to_o other_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o be_v proud_a to_o be_v lift_v up_o and_o lest_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o god_n send_v a_o messenger_n of_o satan_n to_o buffet_v he_o it_o imply_v it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n for_o paul_n the_o apostle_n when_o abundance_n of_o revelation_n come_v into_o his_o soul_n not_o to_o be_v lift_v up_o and_o this_o spoil_v some_o honest_a heart_n i_o hope_v they_o be_v so_o and_o that_o god_n will_v bring_v they_o home_o that_o have_v be_v keep_v bare_a of_o food_n as_o some_o soldier_n that_o go_v to_o relieve_v gloucester_n when_o they_o come_v home_o to_o the_o city_n they_o kill_v themselves_o with_o eat_v full_a and_o good_a food_n so_o when_o poor_a soul_n have_v go_v upon_o the_o bare_a mountain_n of_o sinai_n and_o then_o have_v come_v to_o the_o pasture_n of_o righteousness_n they_o go_v so_o

to_o seek_v to_o the_o lord_n to_o keep_v your_o heart_n humble_a 3._o a_o three_o thing_n be_v this_o endeavour_v to_o walk_v simple_o i_o mean_v to_o keep_v to_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o

the_o devil_n screw_v they_o up_o to_o sublimare_fw-la all_o religion_n into_o notion_n to_o cleave_v a_o hair_n and_o religion_n will_v be_v all_o in_o idea_n and_o conceit_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o creature_n whereas_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o plain_a thing_n paul_n desire_v to_o know_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o power_n of_o his_o resurrection_n and_o paul_n teach_v servant_n how_o to_o obey_v their_o master_n and_o master_n how_o to_o carry_v themselves_o to_o their_o servant_n and_o wife_n to_o their_o husband_n and_o such_o simple_a plain_a thing_n now_o these_o be_v account_v nothing_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o many_o among_o we_o they_o do_v more_o and_o more_o lose_v the_o word_n of_o god_n unless_o it_o be_v about_o some_o sublime_a notion_n if_o a_o minister_n be_v upon_o such_o point_n some_o high_a idea_n for_o they_o feed_v upon_o such_o that_o be_v worth_a the_o while_n but_o if_o a_o minister_n speak_v of_o thing_n that_o concern_v their_o call_v or_o their_o sex_n and_o condition_n that_o be_v plain_a it_o have_v no_o taste_n in_o it_o no_o more_o than_o the_o white_a of_o a_o egg_n it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o keep_v to_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o the_o devil_n tempt_v our_o first_o parent_n god_n give_v adam_n and_o eve_n sufficient_a knowledge_n to_o do_v his_o will_n and_o they_o have_v sufficient_a natural_a knowledge_n for_o they_o name_v all_o the_o creature_n yet_o notwithstanding_o she_o must_v needs_o go_v from_o the_o simplicity_n of_o god_n will_n and_o be_v

we_o oh_o do_v not_o content_v yourselves_o to_o have_v a_o old_a freeze_a knowledge_n of_o gospel_n truth_n whereby_o you_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v that_o man_n be_v legallist_n and_o that_o man_n be_v under_o mount_n sinai_n and_o yet_o have_v cold_a and_o freeze_a heart_n cold_a truth_n without_o life_n therefore_o think_v of_o mind_v god_n of_o this_o 5._o then_o last_o labour_v to_o take_v

so_o to_o do_v i_o do_v believe_v and_o it_o be_v my_o comfort_n and_o will_v be_v when_o i_o be_o far_o from_o this_o place_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v enlighten_v divers_a of_o you_o to_o know_v the_o gospel_n to_o know_v jesus_n christ_n a_o little_o clear_a now_o i_o know_v not_o what_o the_o lord_n may_v do_v for_o you_o but_o i_o say_v it_o be_v wondrous_a easy_a you_o may_v under_o one_o

this_o be_v all_o in_o short_a i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o you_o for_o that_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v lay_v up_o these_o word_n use_v 5._o now_o i_o have_v a_o few_o word_n of_o advice_n and_o

religion_n from_o old_a adam_n and_o according_a to_o the_o law_n in_o a_o great_a measure_n now_o the_o question_n be_v what_o shall_v they_o do_v that_o they_o may_v be_v spiritual_a christian_n that_o they_o may_v walk_v according_a to_o the_o spirit_n i_o will_v only_o name_v a_o few_o thing_n 1._o the_o first_o be_v this_o i_o will_v desire_v you_o to_o endeavour_v to_o study_v much_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o two_o testament_n the_o new_a and_o the_o old_a i_o mean_v not_o the_o two_o book_n but_o the_o two_o testament_n that_o we_o read_v of_o heb._n 8._o and_o heb._n 9_o whereof_o the_o one_o be_v faulty_a and_o the_o other_o be_v excellent_a the_o one_o be_v do_v away_o the_o other_z remains_z study_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o for_o thereby_o you_o say_v the_o foundation_n of_o your_o gospel-happiness_n for_o there_o be_v the_o misery_n of_o many_o professor_n and_o will_v be_v their_o misery_n if_o they_o shall_v live_v a_o thousand_o year_n they_o jumble_v both_o testament_n without_o knowledge_n and_o distinction_n and_o so_o they_o will_v never_o be_v better_o 2._o another_o thing_n that_o i_o will_v exhort_v you_o to_o be_v this_o to_o prize_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n more_o than_o you_o do_v there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o gospel_n but_o it_o be_v a_o mystery_n you_o can_v know_v it_o but_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o there_o be_v no_o duty_n in_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v do_v that_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o may_v do_v many_o thing_n in_o the_o law_n by_o the_o strength_n of_o old_a adam_n in_o the_o gospel_n we_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o the_o spirit_n be_v all_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n i_o think_v for_o i_o speak_v according_a to_o the_o grace_n give_v i_o why_o people_n now_o be_v leave_v so_o bare_a and_o poor_a and_o confuse_a and_o know_v not_o which_o way_n to_o go_v or_o what_o to_o do_v they_o do_v not_o prize_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n many_o man_n extol_v learn_v mighty_o and_o it_o be_v account_v almost_o heresy_n to_o commend_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n there_o be_v many_o man_n i_o and_o many_o professor_n that_o do_v not_o love_v to_o hear_v a_o man_n in_o a_o few_o modest_a word_n to_o commend_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o all_o must_v be_v by_o study_n and_o read_v and_o learning_n and_o for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o plain_a mere_a cypher_n and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n but_o my_o life_n on_o it_o if_o i_o have_v a_o hundred_o i_o will_v say_v so_o they_o shall_v be_v behold_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o extol_v he_o before_o they_o be_v teach_v spiritual_o they_o shall_v be_v willing_a to_o lay_v down_o all_o their_o learning_n as_o i_o have_v see_v a_o learned_a godly_a man_n of_o late_a even_o with_o the_o plowboy_n i_o do_v not_o say_v but_o that_o learning_n be_v good_a for_o some_o use_n and_o god_n may_v bless_v it_o to_o help_v a_o man_n to_o express_v what_o he_o know_v the_o better_a but_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o adam_n must_v die_v he_o can_v by_v it_o come_v to_o know_v one_o jot_n of_o the_o spiritual_a meaning_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n or_o one_o jot_n of_o power_n or_o assurance_n to_o be_v happy_a or_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o god_n towards_o this_o all_o learning_n be_v not_o worth_a a_o straw_n therefore_o labour_v to_o extol_v the_o spirit_n and_o if_o any_o of_o you_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o learning_n go_v on_o i_o discourage_v you_o not_o from_o it_o learning_n be_v a_o thing_n in_o another_o element_n take_v pain_n and_o diligence_n to_o be_v learn_v it_o be_v good_a to_o do_v so_o but_o if_o thou_o will_v be_v a_o gospel_n christian_n thou_o must_v thank_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o all_o say_v paul_n for_o all_o his_o

that_o our_o soul_n may_v feed_v upon_o first_o that_o the_o law_n require_v of_o every_o man_n a_o righteousness_n to_o fulfil_v it_o or_o that_o every_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o get_v he_o a_o

righteousness_n from_o every_o man_n to_o fulfil_v it_o or_o every_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n the_o ground_n of_o that_o be_v these_o i_o shall_v but_o touch_v they_o reas_n 1._o because_o that_o god_n make_v man_n man_n be_v his_o creature_n and_o the_o lord_n be_v his_o sovereign_n and_o when_o god_n make_v all_o creature_n you_o know_v he_o make_v law_n for_o they_o he_o make_v a_o law_n for_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n and_o star_n etc._n etc._n and_o every_o thing_n go_v according_a to_o the_o law_n that_o god_n determine_v for_o it_o now_o when_o god_n make_v man_n who_o be_v but_o his_o creature_n though_o he_o be_v a_o more_o excellent_a creature_n he_o make_v a_o law_n for_o he_o this_o bless_a law_n of_o god_n which_o be_v in_o his_o book_n here_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n as_o it_o be_v sometime_o call_v therefore_o as_o all_o other_o creature_n be_v bind_v to_o go_v in_o their_o course_n and_o keep_v their_o peculiar_a law_n that_o god_n lay_v on_o they_o so_o man_n also_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o god_n make_v for_o he_o reas_n 2._o another_o thing_n be_v this_o that_o beside_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o god_n that_o may_v impose_v a_o law_n upon_o he_o there_o be_v second_o a_o compact_a between_o god_n &_o man_n and_o so_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o bargain_n for_o god_n lay_v that_o law_n upon_o man_n and_o adam_n as_o a_o public_a person_n he_o undertake_v to_o keep_v that_o law_n by_o a_o contract_n or_o bargain_n if_o god_n as_o it_o be_v have_v have_v no_o right_a before_o to_o lay_v it_o on_o he_o yet_o now_o man_n undertake_v it_o by_o way_n of_o bargain_n to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n adam_n first_o do_v it_o and_o may_v have_v do_v it_o and_o afterward_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n profess_v to_o do_v it_o all_o these_o word_n we_o will_v do_v we_o will_v keep_v they_o that_o be_v another_o reason_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n be_v bind_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n reas_n 3._o another_o thing_n be_v this_o if_o you_o consider_v what_o there_o be_v that_o may_v free_v a_o man_n from_o keep_v a_o law_n that_o be_v lay_v upon_o he_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o there_o be_v none_o of_o those_o thing_n that_o can_v help_v he_o in_o this_o as_o first_o of_o all_o our_o law_n many_o time_n be_v repeal_v and_o that_o law_n that_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v a_o few_o year_n ago_o he_o be_v bind_v to_o protest_v against_o now_o as_o the_o service-book_n the_o common-prayer_n etc._n etc._n there_o be_v that_o penalty_n now_o for_o use_v it_o as_o there_o be_v for_o not_o use_v it_o a_o few_o year_n since_o now_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o law_n of_o god_n heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o one_o jot_n or_o tittle_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v not_o pass_v that_o law_n be_v a_o eternal_a law_n there_o be_v no_o repeal_n of_o it_o then_o second_o you_o know_v judge_n and_o lawgiver_n among_o man_n may_v be_v corrupt_v and_o bribe_v and_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o dispense_v with_o their_o own_o law_n nay_o sometime_o to_o go_v against_o their_o own_o law_n but_o god_n be_v a_o just_a god_n and_o when_o his_o own_o son_n the_o son_n of_o his_o love_n do_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v bear_v under_o the_o law_n and_o to_o be_v a_o surety_n for_o man_n he_o endure_v the_o smart_n of_o the_o law_n and_o be_v deal_v with_o as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v another_o then_o three_o there_o be_v no_o evasion_n or_o escape_v among_o man_n there_o be_v if_o a_o man_n break_v the_o law_n and_o go_v into_o another_o country_n he_o be_v clear_a and_o free_a but_o here_o be_v no_o escape_v one_o can_v go_v away_o whither_o shall_v i_o go_v from_o thy_o presence_n say_v david_n psal_n 139._o where_o shall_v i_o hide_v myself_o from_o thou_o a_o man_n can_v go_v no_o where_n but_o the_o law_n of_o god_n will_v be_v on_o he_o so_o that_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n be_v still_o bind_v to_o fulfil_v the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n or_o to_o get_v a_o righteousness_n a_o perfect_a righteousness_n to_o satisfy_v the_o law_n of_o god_n now_o there_o be_v but_o three_o way_n in_o the_o world_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n first_o either_o a_o man_n must_v do_v it_o in_o his_o own_o person_n as_o most_o man_n do_v beside_o papist_n more_o or_o less_o they_o will_v go_v and_o do_v their_o best_a and_o do_v the_o good_a leave_v the_o evil_a and_o perform_v duty_n and_o they_o think_v by_o their_o do_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n or_o else_o second_o by_o suffer_v that_o be_v partly_o in_o this_o world_n and_o afterward_o in_o hell_n for_o that_o be_v the_o business_n of_o hell_n for_o hell_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o place_n where_o people_n be_v fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n what_o do_v cain_n and_o other_o wretch_n do_v in_o hell_n they_o be_v pay_v the_o debt_n fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n to_o eternity_n by_o suffering_n because_o they_o do_v not_o fulfil_v it_o by_o do_v while_o they_o be_v here_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o they_o be_v in_o hell_n for_o ever_o because_o they_o can_v never_o pay_v the_o debt_n therefore_o they_o must_v abide_v there_o for_o ever_o for_o if_o it_o can_v be_v suppose_v that_o they_o can_v give_v a_o complete_a righteousness_n that_o may_v satisfy_v the_o law_n they_o shall_v stay_v in_o prison_n no_o long_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o hell_n no_o more_o then_o three_o there_o be_v another_o glorious_a way_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v keep_v the_o law_n and_o perfect_o fulfil_v it_o now_o a_o man_n by_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o be_v unite_v to_o he_o and_o marry_v to_o

do_v by_o you_o all_o shall_v be_v impute_v to_o you_o and_o so_o the_o law_n of_o god_n may_v be_v fulfil_v in_o you_o perfect_o and_o you_o shall_v never_o go_v to_o hell_n and_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v or_o to_o suffer_v in_o that_o kind_n this_o be_v premise_v brief_o the_o use_v of_o this_o may_v be_v twofold_a use_v 1_o to_o show_v you_o what_o a_o vain_a and_o foolish_a thing_n it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o go_v about_o to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n in_o his_o own_o strength_n or_o in_o his_o own_o person_n for_o you_o to_o think_v to_o save_v your_o soul_n or_o to_o fulfil_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n by_o your_o own_o do_n belove_a it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n to_o bring_v poor_a sinner_n to_o be_v awaken_v to_o see_v their_o sin_n or_o to_o break_v off_o their_o course_n in_o sin_n for_o there_o be_v many_o drunkard_n and_o swearer_n and_o jeerer_n of_o religion_n and_o prophaner_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n that_o sit_v as_o sot_n all_o

affinity_n and_o nearness_n between_o walk_v legal_o and_o walk_v sinful_o that_o they_o be_v promiscuous_o in_o scripture_n take_v one_o for_o another_o for_o let_v a_o man_n walk_v and_o endeavour_v

the_o law_n be_v as_o it_o be_v of_o so_o near_o a_o kin_n that_o the_o law_n make_v sin_n more_o sinful_a and_o the_o more_o a_o man_n strive_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n the_o more_o he_o sin_n the_o apostle_n bring_v it_o so_o near_o that_o people_n be_v ready_a to_o speak_v nonsense_n that_o the_o law_n be_v sin_n he_o prevent_v the_o objection_n be_v the_o law_n sin_n o_o no_o faith_n he_o sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n so_o that_o a_o man_n that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o spite_n of_o his_o

reason_n why_o it_o be_v call_v flesh_n be_v in_o allusion_n to_o the_o two_o son_n of_o abraham_n as_o we_o see_v in_o gal._n 4._o 21._o the_o apostle_n there_o speak_v of_o these_o two_o covenant_n he_o say_v abraham_n have_v two_o son_n the_o one_o by_o a_o bondmaid_n the_o other_o by_o a_o free_a woman_n but_o he_o who_o be_v of_o the_o bondwoman_n be_v bear_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o he_o of_o the_o free_a woman_n be_v by_o promise_n which_o thing_n be_v a_o allegory_n or_o a_o comparison_n for_o these_o be_v the_o two_o covenant_n the_o one_o from_o mount_n sinai_n which_o gender_v to_o bondage_n which_o be_v agar_n for_o this_o agar_n be_v mount_n sinai_n in_o arabia_n and_o answer_v to_o jerusalem_n which_o now_o be_v and_o be_v in_o bondage_n with_o her_o child_n but_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v above_o be_v free_a which_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o we_o all_o he_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o old_a covenant_n be_v to_o be_v do_v away_o agar_n be_v to_o be_v throw_v out_o with_o her_o child_n he_o prove_v that_o those_o two_o son_n of_o abraham_n ishmael_n and_o isaac_n be_v type_n of_o the_o two_o covenant_n that_o god_n make_v with_o mankind_n the_o covenant_n of_o

a_o great_a mystery_n that_o you_o think_v not_o of_o when_o you_o read_v of_o ishmael_n and_o isaac_n by_o ishmael_n be_v mean_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o the_o principle_n of_o it_o and_o the_o practitioner_n of_o it_o and_o they_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n as_o ishmael_n do_v and_o by_o isaac_n be_v mean_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o those_o that_o go_v that_o

to_o the_o flesh_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v thou_o shall_v never_o have_v this_o righteousness_n by_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o thy_o father_n ishmael_n by_o mount_n sinai_n in_o arabia_n by_o

for_o flesh_n be_v put_v for_o weakness_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v they_o be_v flesh_n and_o not_o spirit_n that_o be_v they_o be_v poor_a weak_a thing_n so_o those_o that_o walk_v in_o that_o

more_o what_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n say_v to_o you_o and_o what_o he_o work_v on_o you_o if_o there_o come_v a_o place_n of_o scripture_n in_o your_o mind_n hear_v and_o consider_v whether_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v not_o put_v it_o in_o thy_o mind_n and_o will_v have_v thou_o study_v it_o and_o will_v have_v thou_o compare_v scripture_n and_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o do_v any_o

to_o that_o more_o than_o what_o all_o the_o world_n say_v therefore_o i_o have_v know_v some_o man_n that_o in_o their_o whole_a life_n have_v often_o m●st_v the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o circumstantial_a thing_n usual_o it_o may_v be_v for_o a_o year_n or_o two_o or_o three_o and_o they_o have_v miss_v it_o again_o in_o another_o thing_n and_o in_o another_o thing_n and_o when_o they_o have_v examine_v how_o this_o come_v about_o they_o can_v say_v if_o they_o have_v hearken_v to_o the_o spirit_n they_o have_v not_o do_v so_o but_o they_o hearken_v to_o man_n and_o so_o go_v against_o the_o dictate_v of_o the_o spirit_n in_o their_o conscience_n they_o will_v hear_v what_o this_o man_n say_v and_o what_o the_o other_o man_n do_v but_o now_o the_o spirit_n will_v say_v to_o they_o you_o see_v i_o will_v have_v show_v you_o the_o right_a way_n but_o you_o will_v not_o give_v i_o scope_n but_o make_v a_o cypher_n of_o i_o and_o for_o my_o one_o particular_a i_o do_v not_o yet_o see_v how_o i_o shall_v ever_o have_v miss_v the_o will_n of_o god_n since_o i_o know_v he_o if_o i_o have_v hearken_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n if_o i_o have_v but_o observe_v so_o much_o light_n as_o the_o spirit_n have_v put_v into_o my_o heart_n now_o we_o balance_v the_o spirit_n with_o this_o man_n example_n and_o with_o the_o other_o man_n opinion_n and_o so_o come_v home_o by_o weep_v cross_n therefore_o give_v scope_n to_o the_o spirit_n i_o mean_v not_o against_o the_o word_n or_o above_o the_o word_n but_o still_o i_o mean_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o no_o otherwise_o 4._o another_o thing_n and_o a_o special_a one_o be_v i_o wish_v you_o for_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o study_v the_o scripture_n in_o the_o simplicity_n of_o they_o without_o the_o gloss_n of_o man_n for_o a_o man_n in_o extremity_n must_v do_v that_o that_o a_o man_n that_o be_v not_o in_o extremity_n will_v not_o do_v we_o have_v bring_v ourselves_o in_o such_o slavery_n to_o man_n that_o we_o must_v take_v that_o course_n that_o another_o sober_a man_n shall_v not_o i_o mean_v thus_o when_o ever_o we_o go_v to_o look_v for_o any_o truth_n of_o god_n for_o the_o will_n of_o god_n we_o have_v notion_n in_o our_o mind_n beforehand_o according_a to_o the_o time_n and_o place_n we_o live_v in_o as_o concern_v baptism_n what_o need_v i_o go_v to_o the_o scripture_n say_v one_o we_o have_v it_o in_o such_o and_o such_o man_n write_n and_o so_o we_o forestall_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o we_o be_v blind_v and_o can_v see_v it_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v see_v the_o will_n of_o god_n i_o wish_v you_o for_o a_o while_n to_o look_v on_o the_o naked_a scripture_n and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o know_v but_o three_o use_n to_o be_v make_v of_o other_o book_n 1._o as_o first_o there_o be_v this_o use_n of_o book_n you_o have_v book_n that_o will_v read_v the_o scripture_n in_o divers_a language_n and_o show_v the_o original_a and_o open_v the_o tongue_n now_o when_o i_o see_v a_o word_n in_o english_a and_o doubt_v of_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o than_o i_o will_v go_v to_o the_o greek_a or_o hebrew_n as_o god_n have_v endow_v i_o with_o knowledge_n 2._o then_o there_o be_v another_o use_n of_o book_n when_o i_o read_v one_o single_a scripture_n it_o may_v be_v i_o have_v a_o book_n that_o will_v point_v out_o half_a a_o dozen_o scripture_n to_o open_v one_o scripture_n by_o 3._o and_o it_o may_v be_v i_o have_v some_o book_n that_o take_v some_o scripture_n and_o press_v it_o upon_o my_o soul_n as_o doctor_n preston_n and_o other_o godly_a book_n but_o to_o take_v book_n and_o say_v i_o think_v this_o and_o austin_n that_o and_o fill_v our_o head_n with_o notion_n they_o blind_v we_o that_o we_o can_v see_v the_o will_n of_o god_n therefore_o in_o read_v of_o the_o scripture_n there_o shall_v be_v this_o difference_n from_o our_o read_n of_o other_o book_n i_o mean_v in_o respect_n of_o age_n when_o we_o be_v child_n and_o young_a we_o use_v not_o spectacle_n it_o may_v be_v at_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o or_o forty_o year_n old_a we_o can_v read_v without_o spectacle_n but_o when_o we_o come_v tofifty_a or_o sixty_o than_o we_o can_v see_v nothing_o but_o through_o spectacle_n it_o shall_v be_v just_a contrary_n with_o we_o when_o we_o be_v christian_n when_o we_o be_v young_a we_o usual_o never_o read_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o through_o the_o spectacle_n of_o man_n gloss_n but_o when_o we_o be_v old_a christian_n and_o strong_a saint_n we_o shall_v learn_v to_o read_v better_o without_o spectacle_n we_o shall_v daily_o make_v less_o use_n of_o man_n book_n and_o more_o of_o god_n book_n that_o whereas_o before_o a_o man_n turn_v over_o twenty_o author_n upon_o a_o point_n now_o he_o can_v go_v humble_o to_o god_n with_o his_o bible_n and_o without_o spectacle_n he_o can_v see_v what_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v therefore_o lay_v aside_o spectacle_n sometime_o and_o only_o take_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o compare_v scripture_n
with_o scripture_n that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n shall_v i_o name_v one_o thing_n more_o if_o you_o will_v come_v to_o be_v spiritual_a gospel-saint_n you_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o you_o must_v be_v bear_v from_o above_o a_o gospel_n profession_n be_v jerusalem_n from_o above_o and_o there_o be_v none_o that_o can_v come_v into_o jerusalem_n that_o be_v from_o above_o but_o those_o that_o be_v bear_v from_o above_o therefore_o mark_v our_o saviour_n reason_n jehn_n 3_o nicodemus_n ask_v christ_n which_o be_v the_o way_n to_o heaven_n and_o he_o tell_v he_o very_o thou_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o or_o thou_o must_v be_v bear_v from_o above_o or_o else_o thou_o can_v not_o see_v it_o nicodemus_n wonder_v why_o he_o must_v be_v bear_v from_o above_o say_v he_o shall_v i_o go_v into_o my_o mother_n belly_n etc._n etc._n say_v christ_n marvel_v not_o wonder_v not_o why_o shall_v he_o not_o wonder_v at_o such_o a_o strange_a speech_n here_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n therefore_o think_v it_o not_o strange_a that_o i_o say_v thou_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o so_o i_o say_v whatsoever_o you_o do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o nature_n by_o your_o own_o wisdom_n by_o your_o own_o righteousness_n or_o your_o own_o strength_n all_o come_v but_o to_o this_o but_o to_o flesh_n and_o whatsoever_o

must_v be_v bear_v from_o above_o that_o be_v thou_o must_v have_v the_o lord_n from_o above_o to_o beget_v thou_o again_o you_o have_v every_o one_o be_v bear_v once_o you_o must_v be_v bear_v once_o

but_o all_o the_o strife_n and_o persecution_n in_o the_o world_n be_v mere_o between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n between_o the_o old_a and_o the_o new_a adam_n there_o be_v two_o prince_n

in_o the_o world_n but_o between_o the_o old_a adam_n and_o the_o new_a between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n now_o by_o flesh_n i_o mean_v not_o only_a corruption_n but_o whole_a flesh_n

4._o another_o word_n you_o may_v learn_v from_o hence_o if_o you_o will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o show_v my_o judgement_n for_o i_o speak_v against_o no_o man_n but_o thew_v what_o god_n by_o his_o

be_v it_o that_o some_o do_v believe_v and_o some_o do_v not_o sure_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n alike_o than_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o sure_o some_o man_n have_v power_n to_o believe_v and_o some_o have_v not_o but_o this_o scripture_n say_v plain_o that_o the_o mind_n of_o a_o carnal_a man_n his_o best_a part_n be_v open_a enmity_n to_o god_n it_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n therefore_o a_o carnal_a man_n can_v do_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v spiritual_a a_o man_n that_o be_v dead_a be_v altogether_o fleshly_a he_o

it_o that_o we_o can_v be_v content_a to_o take_v salvation_n on_o god_n term_n so_o that_o it_o set_v up_o a_o power_n in_o man_n that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o alike_o than_o this_o make_v the_o difference_n that_o one_o man_n believe_v and_o another_o do_v not_o and_o then_o a_o man_n have_v power_n in_o himself_o to_o believe_v whereas_o this_o scripture_n say_v that_o natural_o we_o have_v fleshly_a mind_n and_o can_v mind_v nothing_o but_o fleshly_a thing_n therefore_o let_v we_o extol_v god_n and_o go_v to_o he_o and_o desire_v he_o to_o work_v on_o we_o and_o acknowledge_v

therefore_o according_a to_o his_o mind_n he_o reveal_v to_o adam_n it_o be_v not_o so_o and_o many_o other_o reason_n i_o have_v but_o this_o i_o present_a to_o you_o with_o submission_n i_o do_v
