of_o all_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o decalogue_n then_o be_v you_o press_v down_o by_o the_o same_o weight_n that_o you_o be_v before_o for_o not_o only_o the_o work_n that_o we_o do_v without_o faith_n but_o also_o the_o action_n of_o sin_n that_o proceed_v from_o faith_n be_v vain_a and_o frivolous_a yea_o hateful_a to_o god_n if_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o that_o perfect_a righteousness_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n for_o the_o legal_a righteousness_n be_v spiritual_a viz._n it_o tax_v thou_o not_o only_o for_o the_o fact_n but_o for_o the_o inward_a lust_n this_o wicked_a and_o faithless_a man_n be_v a_o man-flay_a thou_o a_o st._n &_o believer_n be_v angry_a the_o law_n of_o god_n condemn_v you_o both_o for_o it_o command_v not_o to_o kill_v wherein_o he_o forbid_v as_o well_o anger_n as_o murder_v this_o wicked_a and_o faithless_a man_n altogether_o desolate_a give_v himself_o over_o to_o whoredom_n and_o rejoice_v in_o it_o thou_o be_v holy_a and_o a_o believer_n be_v set_v at_o liberty_n from_o the_o dominion_n of_o lust_n as_o from_o a_o rude_a and_o impious_a mistress_n now_o hate_v and_o fly_v all_o the_o enticement_n thereof_o but_o yet_o thou_o have_v

not_o commit_v adultery_n to_o thou_o thou_o shall_v not_o lust_n o_o thou_o dissembler_n and_o heartless_a doctor_n if_o thou_o see_v not_o these_o thing_n a_o trifler_n if_o thou_o do_v but_o b._n go_v on_o if_o say_v he_o god_n have_v not_o command_v faith_n in_o the_o law_n he_o command_v hypocrisy_n o_o wickedness_n worthy_a to_o be_v carry_v abroad_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o whence_o come_v you_o b_o i_o marvel_v what_o from_o rome_n see_v you_o dare_v so_o without_o fear_n cast_v out_o against_o god_n the_o poison_n of_o your_o rashness_n with_o how_o much_o fair_a a_o forehead_n may_v you_o have_v make_v these_o distribution_n of_o the_o matter_n either_o god_n have_v command_v faith_n in_o the_o decalogue_n or_o perfect_a righteousness_n but_o not_o this_o therefore_o that_o but_o now_o you_o assume_v that_o which_o be_v false_a than_o falsehood_n itself_o so_o that_o neither_o you_o nor_o the_o very_a mother_n of_o all_o subtlety_n can_v ever_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v it_o but_o b._n proceed_v in_o his_o trouble_a speech_n christ_n say_v he_o be_v propound_v to_o we_o in_o the_o law_n therefore_o faith_n be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n the_o antecedent_n he_o strengthen_v by_o two_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v this_o there_o be_v often_o mention_v make_v say_v he_o of_o the_o messiah_n in_o the_o law_n and_o a_o perpetual_a shadow_v out_o and_o representation_n of_o he_o and_o his_o oblation_n in_o the_o wash_n and_o sacrifice_n therefore_o christ_n be_v set_v forth_o in_o the_o law_n i_o will_v wonder_v true_o if_o that_o you_o will_v utter_v any_o word_n in_o truth_n with_o a_o honest_a mind_n for_o hereby_o also_o as_o you_o be_v wont_a you_o delude_v we_o with_o ambiguity_n for_o the_o antecedent_n comprehend_v the_o law_n of_o the_o ceremony_n whereof_o there_o be_v no_o controversy_n that_o i_o know_v for_o with_o one_o mouth_n all_o do_v confess_v that_o it_o be_v institute_v to_o that_o end_n to_o inform_v that_o people_n to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n viz._n the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o not_o so_o dark_o but_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n may_v more_o right_o be_v call_v a_o gospel_n than_o a_o law_n contrariwise_o his_o conclusion_n of_o the_o law_n do_v deceitful_o thrust_v upon_o we_o the_o decalogue_n so_o that_o he_o expound_v one_o thing_n and_o conclude_v another_o that_o though_o the_o antecedent_n be_v true_a yet_o the_o conclusion_n be_v false_a but_o b._n see_v this_o first_o joinder_n of_o no_o force_n do_v again_o set_v upon_o the_o matter_n and_o deal_v with_o god_n by_o the_o seal_a table_n for_o say_v he_o when_o god_n say_v he_o be_v thy_o god_n which_o bring_v thou_o out_o of_o egypt_n do_v he_o not_o set_v forth_o himself_o as_o a_o redeemer_n but_o he_o be_v not_o a_o redeemer_n but_o in_o christ_n therefore_o inclusive_o christ_n be_v propound_v to_o we_o in_o these_o word_n here_o b._n if_o i_o will_v object_v their_o judgement_n against_o you_o as_o the_o treach_n of_o the_o alps_n who_o say_v that_o in_o every_o perfect_a law_n three_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v first_o the_o preface_n whereby_o he_o make_v his_o auditor_n

say_v if_o as_o they_o do_v that_o be_v instruct_v with_o subtle_a deceit_n that_o with_o the_o very_a name_n of_o these_o man_n as_o with_o legion_n bring_v out_o i_o can_v put_v you_o to_o flight_n i_o shall_v say_v that_o these_o word_n of_o the_o law_n hear_v o_o israel_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n that_o bring_v thou_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n be_v only_o a_o preface_n of_o the_o law_n and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o commendation_n of_o the_o future_a speech_n shall_v i_o not_o stop_v thy_o mouth_n and_o thy_o fellow_n except_o you_o be_v refractory_a but_o i_o will_v not_o

incontinent_o propound_v christ_n to_o they_o and_o the_o benefit_n of_o this_o deliverance_n but_o this_o be_v his_o meaning_n afore_o all_o thing_n that_o israel_n may_v never_o put_v out_o of_o mind_n the_o memory_n of_o so_o great_a a_o benefit_n and_o the_o author_n thereof_o take_v heed_n that_o you_o do_v not_o bark_v again_o as_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v that_o this_o egyptian_a deliverance_n do_v here_o typical_o signify_v the_o spiritual_a deliverance_n of_o man_n bondage_n only_o i_o affirm_v that_o god_n have_v not_o unfold_v to_o his_o people_n israel_n neither_o his_o

respect_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n viz._n the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n but_o if_o he_o mean_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n which_o be_v of_o faith_n i_o think_v he_o have_v err_v with_o you_o if_o either_o he_o think_v that_o god_n will_v exact_v all_o the_o piety_n which_o the_o regenerate_a perform_v to_o god_n by_o faith_n according_a to_o this_o rule_n of_o the_o
