after_o wait_v until_o their_o turn_n come_v after_o the_o ecclesiastical_a ordinance_n of_o david_n so_o be_v not_o christian_a priest_n to_o intermitte_v sacrifice_n but_o continual_o and_o

god_n now_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o consider_v why_o our_o obedience_n be_v call_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o open_n of_o this_o phrase_n will_v notable_o stir_v we_o up_o unto_o the_o study_n of_o obedience_n sacrifice_n so_o then_o the_o work_n of_o christian_n be_v call_v sacrifice_n by_o a_o certain_a relation_n unto_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a jew_n for_o as_o they_o be_v command_v from_o heaven_n to_o the_o priest_n be_v choose_v apply_v sanctify_a and_o accept_v so_o in_o our_o sacrifice_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o there_o be_v à_fw-fr commandement_fw-fr à_fw-fr choice_n a_o application_n a_o sanctification_n and_o that_o they_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n in_o y_fw-fr e_o old_a law_n it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o offer_v a_o sow_n or_o any_o unclean_a

forbid_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o hypocritical_a or_o superstitious_a but_o such_o as_o god_n command_v therefore_o the_o lord_n say_v by_o the_o prophet_n walk_v in_o my_o statute_n secondlie_o as_o the_o clean_a lamb_n which_o shall_v be_v offer_v be_v separate_v from_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o flock_n so_o by_o faith_n our_o work_n be_v to_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o like_a

heaven_n and_o be_v accept_v through_o christ_n as_o peter_n say_v for_o see_v all_o our_o own_o obedience_n be_v unperfect_a &_o in_o every_o work_n we_o offend_v partly_o by_o omit_v somewhat_o partly_o by_o do_v more_o than_o we_o ought_v for_o at_o no_o time_n our_o obedience_n be_v perfect_a and_o full_a it_o can_v be_v that_o our_o sacrifice_n of_o themselves_o shall_v please_v god_n wherefore_o as_o through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v sanctify_v so_o also_o through_o christ_n as_o peter_n say_v they_o be_v acceptable_a for_o christ_n make_v our_o obedience_n

of_o any_o excellency_n of_o merit_n but_o through_o christ_n in_o who_o god_n wai_v our_o work_n y_z t_z he_o may_v accept_v they_o as_o most_o worthy_a sacrifice_n for_o as_o the_o faulty_a

by_o reason_n it_o have_v touch_v the_o holy_a place_n so_o our_o work_n albeit_o they_o be_v very_o faulty_a yet_o become_v they_o clean_a and_o apt_a for_o holy_a sacrifice_n and_o acceptable_a to_o god_n through_o touch_v our_o altar_n christ_n who_o through_o faith_n be_v touch_v and_o although_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o christian_n sacrifice_n may_v be_v understand_v by_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v yet_o to_o make_v it_o the_o more_o evident_a we_o will_v more_o particular_o entreat_v of_o they_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v how_o they_o agree_v together_o and_o

with_o his_o sacrifice_n take_v away_o all_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o make_v a_o man_n no_o more_o to_o dread_a death_n than_o a_o sweet_a sleep_n whereof_o it_o be_v that_o a_o godly_a man_n desire_v death_n even_o as_o a_o passage_n out_o of_o these_o misery_n unto_o everlasting_a life_n then_o shall_v he_o find_v the_o say_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v true_a 52._o if_o a_o man_n keep_v
