be_v not_o only_o under_o a_o outward_a administration_n of_o sonship_n wherein_o we_o shall_v be_v sure_a still_o to_o retain_v the_o mind_n and_o spirit_n of_o servant_n and_o enemy_n but_o have_v the_o heart_n and_o spirit_n of_o son_n give_v unto_o we_o and_o be_v by_o this_o effectual_a prousion_n of_o the_o lord_n no_o more_o in_o a_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n unto_o fear_n but_o of_o power_n and_o love_n and_o of_o a_o sound_a mind_n and_o thus_o our_o lord_n have_v redeem_v we_o into_o the_o same_o state_n with_o himself_o he_o be_v a_o son_n we_o be_v so_o too_o to_o the_o second_o question_n what_o enjoyment_n the_o saint_n under_o the_o law_n have_v of_o this_o privilege_n my_o answer_n be_v they_o then_o have_v this_o state_n of_o sonship_n in_o faith_n but_o not_o in_o possession_n until_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n come_v they_o have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v but_o not_o in_o it_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o law_n bow_v down_o their_o back_n they_o be_v at_o school_n under_o tutor_n and_o governor_n they_o do_v not_o receive_v this_o adoption_n of_o son_n as_o heaven_n be_v now_o to_o we_o so_o be_v this_o state_n to_o they_o we_o have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o and_o have_v it_o by_o faith_n yet_o stand_v oblige_v to_o the_o duty_n of_o our_o present_a administration_n in_o this_o life_n so_o they_o have_v a_o right_a to_o this_o adoption_n of_o son_n by_o the_o son_n and_o see_v it_o and_o hope_v for_o it_o a_o far_o off_o but_o lay_v oblige_v under_o the_o element_n of_o the_o world_n and_o be_v shut_v up_o under_o the_o law_n till_o the_o time_n appoint_v by_o their_o and_o our_o father_n this_o better_a thing_n be_v keep_v for_o the_o saint_n in_o these_o day_n that_o they_o without_o we_o may_v not_o be_v perfect_a this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o saint_n sonship_n be_v every_o where_n in_o the_o scripture_n witness_v unto_o i_o shall_v improve_v it_o these_o two_o way_n first_o by_o way_n of_o use_n and_o then_o by_o way_n of_o trial_n whether_o we_o be_v in_o possession_n of_o this_o state_n or_o not_o first_o and_o first_o if_o the_o saint_n be_v now_o son_n it_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o those_o who_o by_o a_o legal_a carnal_a ministry_n seek_v to_o make_v servant_n and_o slave_n of_o they_o this_o they_o do_v who_o set_v up_o work_v and_o impose_v that_o yoke_n which_o our_o father_n be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v who_o so_o urge_v the_o command_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o that_o they_o turn_v it_o into_o a_o mere_a covenant_n of_o work_n and_o revive_v again_o the_o dead_a body_n of_o moses_n which_o god_n himself_o have_v bury_v and_o so_o erect_v a_o worldly_a sanctuary_n as_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o ascend_v and_o become_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n and_o true_a tabernacle_n who_o bring_v the_o conscience_n into_o bondage_n in_o those_o thing_n wherein_o christ_n have_v make_v his_o people_n free_a who_o set_v the_o saint_n to_o obtain_v that_o by_o work_n and_o condition_n which_o they_o have_v by_o their_o sonship_n by_o inheritance_n this_o be_v the_o devil_n constant_a design_n to_o scar_n man_n from_o the_o gospel_n by_o obscure_v that_o glorious_a

their_o course_n as_o wearisome_a and_o as_o full_a of_o bondage_n as_o he_o can_v and_o therefore_o we_o need_v often_o to_o read_v that_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o gal._n 5.1_o stand_v
