law_n of_o the_o gospel_n a_o new_a nature_n and_o holiness_n of_o life_n be_v the_o necessary_a condition_n of_o our_o justification_n by_o christ_n and_o to_o say_v that_o they_o be_v essential_a to_o our_o union_n to_o christ_n by_o who_o we_o be_v justify_v be_v different_a form_n of_o speech_n but_o signify_v the_o same_o thing_n because_o christ_n justify_v none_o but_o those_o who_o be_v

he_o in_o the_o last_o chapter_n i_o give_v a_o short_a account_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n love_n to_o we_o and_o of_o our_o love_n to_o christ_n that_o no_o man_n may_v mistake_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n for_o a_o fond_a and_o easy_a passion_n nor_o think_v to_o please_v he_o with_o some_o heat_n and_o rapture_n of_o fancy_n instead_o of_o the_o substantial_a return_v of_o duty_n and_o obedience_n the_o sum_n of_o which_o in_o short_a be_v this_o that_o christ_n express_v a_o wonderful_a and_o stupendous_a love_n in_o die_v for_o we_o especial_o in_o die_v for_o we_o while_o we_o be_v his_o enemy_n upon_o which_o account_n the_o scripture_n every_o where_o magnify_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n but_o though_o this_o be_v the_o great_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o only_a expression_n of_o his_o love_n but_o he_o manifest_v the_o same_o good_a will_n in_o all_o the_o method_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o providence_n he_o be_v a_o easy_a and_o gentle_a governor_n who_o rule_v with_o the_o natural_a tenderness_n and_o compassion_n of_o a_o shepherd_n a_o husband_n a_o head_n a_o friend_n he_o pity_v our_o weakness_n and_o infirmity_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o help_v

we_o want_v and_o pray_v for_o in_o his_o name_n and_o he_o who_o love_v sinner_n so_o as_o to_o die_v for_o they_o must_v needs_o take_v pleasure_n in_o good_a man_n and_o dwell_v with_o they_o as_o one_o friend_n dwell_v with_o another_o joh._n 14._o 21_o 23._o christ_n will_v in_o a_o more_o special_a manner_n be_v present_a with_o such_o good_a man_n who_o be_v careful_a in_o all_o thing_n to_o obey_v he_o and_o will_v give_v very_o sensible_a demonstration_n of_o his_o presence_n with_o they_o will_v manifest_v himself_o unto_o they_o and_o make_v his_o abode_n with_o they_o and_o now_o in_o return_n to_o this_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o christ_n be_v our_o superior_a our_o lord_n and_o master_n and_o therefore_o our_o love_n to_o christ_n must_v not_o express_v itself_o in_o a_o fond_a and_o familiar_a passion_n such_o as_o we_o have_v for_o our_o friend_n and_o equal_n but_o in_o a_o great_a reverence_n and_o devotion_n superior_n must_v be_v treat_v with_o honour_n and_o respect_n and_o therefore_o our_o love_n to_o our_o parent_n and_o superior_n in_o the_o five_o commandment_n be_v call_v honour_n and_o the_o same_o religious_a affection_n to_o god_n which_o be_v sometime_o call_v love_n be_v at_o other_o time_n call_v fear_n which_o signify_v a_o reverential_n love_n or_o a_o love_n of_o honour_n reverence_n and_o devotion_n and_o therefore_o the_o external_a expression_n of_o our_o love_n to_o our_o saviour_n be_v as_o various_a as_o the_o expression_n of_o honour_n and_o must_v bear_v some_o respect_n to_o the_o nature_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o person_n and_o that_o relation_n we_o stand_v in_o to_o he_o christ_n be_v the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n we_o must_v have_v regard_n to_o the_o greatness_n and_o excellency_n of_o his_o person_n since_o he_o become_v man_n and_o die_v for_o we_o we_o must_v admire_v and_o praise_v his_o goodness_n he_o be_v our_o mediator_n and_o advocate_n we_o must_v trust_v and_o confide_v in_o he_o and_o expect_v the_o return_n of_o our_o prayer_n and_o all_o other_o blessing_n from_o the_o prevalency_n of_o his_o intercession_n he_o be_v our_o prophet_n and_o lawgiver_n we_o must_v express_v our_o love_n to_o he_o in_o a_o belief_n of_o his_o gospel_n and_o a_o sincere_a obedience_n to_o his_o law_n as_o christ_n require_v of_o his_o disciple_n if_o you_o love_v i_o keep_v my_o commandment_n and_o when_o we_o consider_v our_o saviour_n as_o our_o guide_n and_o example_n the_o true_a expression_n of_o our_o love_n and_o honour_n be_v to_o imitate_v he_o to_o live_v as_o he_o live_v in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o which_o perfect_v our_o love_n be_v a_o undaunted_a courage_n and_o resolution_n in_o profess_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n whatever_o danger_n and_o misery_n it_o may_v expose_v we_o to_o in_o this_o world_n for_o there_o be_v no_o fear_n in_o love_n but_o perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n these_o be_v the_o proper_a expression_n of_o our_o love_n to_o christ_n which_o be_v summary_o comprehend_v in_o believe_v his_o gospel_n and_o obey_v it_o for_o to_o be_v a_o true_a lover_n of_o christ_n signify_v neither_o more_o nor_o less_o than_o to_o be_v a_o good_a christian._n this_o be_v a_o faithful_a account_n of_o the_o design_n and_o doctrine_n of_o my_o book_n which_o have_v raise_v so_o much_o noise_n and_o clamour_n and_o have_v sharpen_v the_o pen_n and_o tongue_n of_o so_o many_o against_o i_o but_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a attempt_n to_o think_v to_o outface_v the_o sun_n these_o be_v such_o bright_a and_o glorious_a truth_n as_o will_v outshine_v all_o the_o new_a light_n of_o present_a or_o former_a age_n and_o command_v belief_n from_o all_o honest_a and_o inquisitive_a mind_n by_o their_o own_o natural_a evidence_n the_o doctrine_n which_o i_o design_o oppose_v in_o that_o discourse_n be_v such_o as_o contradict_v these_o great_a truth_n or_o at_o least_o such_o as_o i_o apprehend_v to_o do_v so_o either_o express_o

if_o i_o have_v strike_v at_o the_o very_a foundation_n of_o christianity_n and_o first_o whereas_o i_o observe_v that_o to_o know_v christ_n signify_v the_o belief_n and_o knowledge_n of_o those_o revelation_n which_o christ_n have_v make_v to_o the_o world_n which_o include_v whatever_o he_o have_v reveal_v to_o we_o concern_v his_o own_o person_n nature_n mediation_n and_o the_o whole_a will_n of_o god_n concern_v our_o salvation_n which_o must_v be_v learn_v from_o the_o express_a declaration_n of_o the_o gospel_n not_o from_o some_o fanciful_a and_o imaginary_a consequence_n which_o be_v a_o very_a unsafe_a way_n in_o matter_n of_o pure_a revelation_n doctor_n owen_n have_v advance_v a_o acquaintance_n with_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o only_a medium_fw-la of_o save_a knowledge_n that_o be_v when_o we_o have_v from_o the_o gospel_n learn_v who_o christ_n be_v what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o when_o we_o have_v learn_v those_o thing_n which_o concern_v his_o person_n office_n and_o work_v we_o may_v then_o give_v free_a scope_n to_o our_o fancy_n and_o draw_v such_o conclusion_n as_o be_v no_o where_o express_o contain_v in_o
