duty_n inward_a and_o outward_a and_o all_o this_o but_o one_o covenant_n this_o covenant_n be_v confirm_v first_o to_o abraham_n as_o a_o public_a father_n second_o to_o his_o seed_n i._n e._n all_o

to_o all_o his_o seed_n and_o what_o be_v swear_v and_o seal_v to_o abraham_n be_v swear_v and_o seal_v to_o all_o his_o seed_n according_a to_o this_o definition_n also_o we_o shall_v see_v a_o twofold_a admission_n into_o covenant_n 1._o into_o the_o outward_a privilege_n of_o the_o covenant_n 2._o into_o the_o inward_a grace_n of_o the_o covenant_n hence_o also_o we_o shall_v have_v

to_o the_o place_n by_o he_o quote_v jer._n 31.32_o which_o he_o bring_v to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v two_o covenant_n but_o gross_o mistake_v yet_o so_o far_o as_o we_o may_v go_v without_o breach_n of_o faith_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n in_o acknowledge_v two_o covenant_n shall_v not_o deny_v he_o friendship_n as_o namely_o first_o that_o there_o have_v be_v two_o covenant_n make_v with_o man_n the_o one_o of_o work_n before_o the_o fall_n in_o which_o man_n stand_v alone_o without_o a_o mediator_n under_o which_o covenant_n all_o mankind_n by_o nature_n lie_v to_o this_o day_n which_o be_v also_o material_o the_o same_o with_o that_o righteous_a law_n moral_a give_v to_o israel_n from_o mount_n sinah_n though_o upon_o other_o term_n second_o the_o other_o of_o grace_n make_v since_o the_o fall_n and_o tender_v to_o adam_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o christ_n since_o which_o the_o law_n in_o any_o part_n of_o it_o be_v not_o give_v as_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n but_o as_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n put_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o mediator_n therefore_o three_o it_o be_v never_o intend_v by_o god_n either_o in_o give_v circumcision_n to_o abraham_n or_o the_o law_n to_o israel_n that_o ever_o abraham_n seed_n shall_v enjoy_v canaan_n by_o the_o law_n as_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n but_o only_o as_o have_v be_v lay_v down_o in_o the_o analysis_n as_o man_n part_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n quest_n but_o if_o that_o be_v not_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n give_v to_o israel_n when_o god_n take_v they_o by_o the_o hand_n in_o order_n to_o bring_v they_o into_o canaan_n what_o then_o can_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o place_n where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n speak_v of_o a_o old_a &_o new_a covenant_n &_o tell_v we_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o he_o will_v make_v after_o those_o day_n shall_v not_o be_v according_a to_o the_o old_a etc._n etc._n the_o clear_n of_o this_o with_o a_o questian_a or_o two_o more_o will_v take_v in_o all_o those_o scripture_n bring_v to_o this_o and_o therefore_o i_o further_o answer_v first_o the_o covenant_n there_o mention_v be_v call_v new_a as_o the_o law_n of_o love_n john_n 13.34.1_o john_n 2.8_o be_v call_v a_o new_a commandment_n or_o law_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o new_a in_o itself_o but_o the_o same_o command_v as_o be_v give_v to_o israel_n of_o old_a leu._n 19.18_o and_o as_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n be_v call_v new_a re._n 21.1_o and_o as_o the_o new_a creature_n be_v call_v new_a which_o be_v not_o the_o annihilate_v the_o old_a and_o create_v new_a but_o the_o put_n of_o the_o old_a heaven_n and_o old_a earth_n into_o a_o new_a frame_n of_o government_n and_o the_o old_a creature_n into_o a_o new_a state_n of_o grace_n so_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v the_o same_o that_o bring_v israel_n out_o of_o egypt_n and_o contain_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o eternal_a life_n in_o christ_n by_o faith_n with_o all_o the_o blessing_n of_o this_o life_n but_o so_o call_v new_a second_o because_o those_o typical_a ceremony_n and_o ordinance_n which_o be_v man_n part_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n then_o and_o relate_v to_o his_o duty_n in_o god_n worship_n be_v by_o christ_n come_v abolish_v and_o new_a ordinance_n under_o the_o gospel_n establish_v in_o room_n thereof_o for_o the_o promise_a part_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n from_o the_o beginning_n have_v ever_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o preceptive_a conditional_a part_n to_o bind_v up_o man_n to_o his_o duty_n and_o walk_v close_o with_o god_n in_o his_o ordinance_n of_o worship_n and_o therefore_o when_o christ_n be_v hold_v forth_o in_o the_o first_o promise_n immediate_o sacrifice_n be_v institute_v a_o distinction_n make_v betwixt_o clean_a and_o unclean_a creature_n the_o

before_o there_o be_v a_o publish_v the_o law_n from_o sinai_n and_o so_o to_o christ_n track_n it_o from_o christ_n again_o to_o the_o world_n end_n you_o have_v the_o first_o abolish_v a_o second_o institute_v and_o as_o then_o so_o still_o to_o bind_v man_n to_o his_o duty_n in_o walk_v with_o god_n but_o not_o as_o in_o a_o distinct_a covenant_n of_o work_n but_o as_o the_o term_n of_o grace_n to_o which_o man_n be_v bind_v by_o the_o covenant_n and_o thus_o those_o typical_a ce_fw-fr emony_n be_v as_o old_a clothes_n and_o be_v call_v beggarly_a rudiment_n or_o rag_n in_o which_o the_o promise_a part_n be_v clothe_v and_o dress_v the_o apostle_n in_o heb._n 10._o call_n the_o exhibition_n of_o christ_n in_o flesh_n in_o offer_v up_o his_o blood_n by_o once_o die_a and_o such_o manner_n of_o institution_n as_o shall_v be_v write_v by_o he_o to_o be_v the_o new_a covenant_n verse_n 15.16_o and_o put_v it_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o legal_a sacrifice_n verse_n 4._o 5_o therefore_o verse_n 19_o 20._o the_o second_o be_v call_v the_o new_a and_o live_a way_n consecrate_v imply_v that_o as_o there_o be_v now_o a_o way_n to_o heaven_n consecrate_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o new_a so_o there_o be_v a_o way_n to_o heaven_n before_o christ_n come_v consecrate_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n call_v old_a by_o this_o then_o we_o see_v in_o what_o respect_n the_o covenant_n be_v call_v new_a and_o old_a namely_o as_o relate_v to_o a_o new_a or_o old_a church-state_n the_o first_o give_v as_o typical_a by_o moses_n to_o israel_n as_o christ_n kingdom_n the_o second_o as_o substantial_a by_o christ_n to_o the_o same_o kingdom_n but_o still_o in_o the_o same_o covenant_n of_o grace_n for_o a_o church_n state_n be_v give_v in_o order_n to_o a_o soul_n enjoy_v communion_n with_o god_n in_o his_o ordinance_n which_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v by_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n since_o the_o fall_n thus_o then_o the_o bring_n of_o israel_n into_o a_o new_a church-state_n under_o the_o gospel_n be_v call_v a_o new_a covenant_n which_o god_n will_v make_v with_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n in_o those_o day_n this_o give_v we_o light_a to_o answer_v also_o that_o other_o place_n heb._n 8.6_o 7._o by_o master_n patient_v quote_v to_o prove_v two_o covenant_n because_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o mediator_n of_o a_o
