to_o be_v remember_v now_o take_v away_o the_o offence_n and_o the_o law_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o you_o take_v away_o the_o breach_n and_o you_o be_v free_a from_o all_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o in_o christ_n sin_n be_v condemn_v in_o the_o flesh_n christ_n do_v thus_o condemn_v sin_n as_o he_o take_v away_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o as_o he_o take_v away_o sin_n itself_o so_o that_o it_o can_v have_v no_o voice_n against_o we_o now_o the_o offence_n be_v take_v away_o of_o what_o force_n be_v the_o law_n as_o suppose_v a_o man_n shall_v live_v in_o a_o kingdom_n wherein_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o law_n make_v that_o whosoever_o shall_v do_v such_o a_o particular_a thing_n let_v it_o be_v what_o it_o will_v shall_v snffer_v such_o a_o heavy_a punishmnnt_n only_o the_o law_n maker_n have_v power_n over_o the_o law_n to_o pardon_v such_o particular_a person_n as_o he_o please_v which_o if_o he_o do_v the_o law_n have_v no_o voice_n at_o all_o against_o they_o they_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n the_o law_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o they_o though_o all_o other_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o it_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o under_o the_o power_n of_o it_o for_o the_o law_n maker_n have_v pardon_v these_o particular_a person_n the_o law_n have_v no_o voice_n at_o all_o against_o they_o and_o though_o the_o law_n be_v powerful_a against_o other_o yet_o it_o can_v against_o they_o they_o then_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n the_o law_n may_v be_v a_o law_n to_o other_o to_o condemn_v they_o but_o not_o to_o these_o their_o offence_n be_v pardon_v so_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n take_v away_o the_o offence_n take_v away_o condemn_v power_n of_o the_o law_n from_o we_o and_o so_o we_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n the_o law_n be_v take_v away_o by_o christ_n for_o in_o that_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n adjudge_v all_o the_o breach_n and_o trespass_n of_o we_o commit_v by_o we_o contrary_a unto_o the_o law_n to_o death_n and_o destruction_n we_o be_v free_a from_o that_o law_n god_n send_v his_o own_o son_n in_o the_o flesh_n condemn_a sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n how_o do_v the_o lord_n jesus_n condemn_v sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n thus_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n come_v in_o our_o nature_n and_o take_v our_o sin_n upon_o he_o he_o condemn_v sin_n and_o suffer_v for_o it_o in_o the_o flesh_n and_o so_o take_v away_o the_o voice_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o sin_n be_v as_o a_o condemn_a man_n judge_v to_o death_n &_o to_o be_v destroy_v and_o if_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o i_o pray_v what_o be_v become_v of_o the_o law_n the_o strength_n of_o sin_n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o be_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n that_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o too_o rom._n 7.4_o we_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v marry_v unto_o another_o even_o to_o he_o who_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a etc._n etc._n so_o then_o we_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n for_o thus_o they_o that_o live_v unto_o the_o law_n have_v either_o life_n from_o it_o or_o death_n from_o it_o 1._o life_n from_o it_o but_o that_o we_o have_v not_o for_o there_o be_v no_o life_n from_o it_o but_o in_o the_o fulfil_n of_o it_o but_o christ_n be_v our_o life_n and_o we_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o grace_n for_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v no_o man_n live_v be_v justify_v or_o in_o the_o next_o place_n they_o that_o live_v to_o the_o law_n have_v death_n from_o it_o for_o the_o breach_n of_o it_o but_o we_o be_v free_a from_o the_o condemnation_n of_o it_o also_o and_o shall_v not_o be_v destroy_v by_o the_o law_n so_o that_o we_o do_v not_o live_v unto_o the_o law_n but_o be_v dead_a unto_o the_o law_n and_o if_o you_o shall_v ask_v how_o the_o apostle_n answer_v by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n how_o be_v that_o thus._n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o in_o that_o body_n ascend_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o there_o blot_v out_o the_o hand-writing_n of_o ordinance_n that_o be_v against_o we_o that_o be_v contrary_a to_o we_o that_o stand_v curse_v of_o we_o he_o take_v it_o out_o of_o the_o way_n nail_v it_o to_o his_o cross_n and_o this_o be_v a_o precious_a mystery_n which_o afford_v the_o saint_n abundant_a consolation_n again_o in_o that_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o aforementioned_a place_n that_o we_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o we_o shall_v live_v unto_o another_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v we_o be_v not_o now_o to_o live_v any_o long_o to_o the_o law_n but_o christ_n have_v therefore_o free_v we_o from_o live_v to_o the_o law_n that_o we_o shall_v live_v unto_o himself_o live_v as_o by_o he_o and_o through_o he_o so_o to_o he_o as_o our_o first_o husband_n be_v dead_a we_o be_v no_o long_o to_o live_v to_o he_o but_o be_v marry_v to_o another_o we_o be_v to_o live_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n our_o first_o husbnd_n to_o what_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v marry_v to_o another_o even_o to_o he_o who_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o this_o be_v the_o further_o illustrate_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n now_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n that_o be_v dead_a wherein_o we_o be_v hold_v it_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v serve_v in_o the_o newness_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o in_o the_o oldness_n of_o the_o latter_a so_o now_o here_o we_o see_v clear_o christ_n have_v adjudge_v all_o our_o sin_n to_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n in_o his_o own_o body_n have_v also_o by_o the_o same_o way_n free_v we_o from_o the_o law_n but_o 3._o 10.4_o 3._o as_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n rom._n 10.4_o and_o last_o we_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n as_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n unto_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v he_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n for_o righteousness_n righteousness_n can_v not_o be_v by_o the_o law_n therefore_o the_o lord_n jesus_n become_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n to_o bring_v righteousness_n to_o we_o no_o man_n can_v perform_v the_o law_n or_o walk_v equivolent_a to_o it_o and_o therefore_o christ_n must_v be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n to_o bring_v in_o everlasting_a righteousness_n that_o be_v such_o a_o glorious_a righteousness_n that_o be_v such_o a_o glorious_a righnesse_n as_o abide_v for_o ever_o the_o whole_a law_n be_v sum_v up_o in_o christ_n whatever_o beauty_n or_o glory_n or_o excellency_n appear_v in_o the_o law_n it_o give_v it_o all_o up_o ●o_o christ_n as_o when_o many_o small_a sum_n be_v gather_v up_o into_o into_o one_o sum_n they_o looze_z their_o number_n and_o name_n in_o it_o so_o the_o law_n and_o the_o beauty_n of_o it_o be_v as_o several_a small_a sum_n gather_v up_o into_o christ_n they_o looze_z their_o name_n in_o he_o and_o he_o be_v their_o perfection_n when_o the_o gentile_n do_v bring_v in_o their_o glory_n into_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n they_o shall_v looze_z their_o glory_n in_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n and_o new_a jerusalem_n shall_v be_v their_o glory_n so_o be_v it_o with_o the_o law_n christ_n be_v the_o glory_n of_o it_o and_o as_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n end_n and_o be_v sum_v up_o in_o the_o sun_n so_o the_o law_n be_v a_o beam_n of_o god_n and_o shadow_n out_o something_a of_o christ_n and_o of_o god_n but_o when_o christ_n come_v and_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o it_o be_v sum_v up_o in_o he_o and_o end_n in_o he_o and_o in_o he_o it_o apper_n glorious_o so_o christ_n free_v we_o from_o the_o law_n as_o he_o sum_v up_o the_o law_n whole_o in_o himself_o if_o there_o be_v any_o beauty_n in_o the_o law_n it_o be_v beautiful_a as_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n the_o truth_n be_v christ_n be_v the_o substance_n of_o it_o all_o and_o so_o a_o believer_n see_v all_o the_o beauty_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o he_o he_o have_v fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n and_o so_o for_o righteousness_n he_o be_v become_v the_o end_n of_o it_o to_o every_o believer_n and_o he_o be_v not_o to_o have_v his_o righteousness_n in_o the_o law_n but_o in_o chriist_n and_o thus_o now_o we_o see_v in_o these_o three_o particular_n how_o
this_o be_v the_o glorious_a design_n of_o god_n to_o make_v person_n righteous_a in_o christ_n as_o christ_n have_v gather_v up_o all_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n in_o himself_o so_o he_o be_v our_o head_n shall_v fulfil_v righteousness_n and_o truth_n in_o we_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o reason_n of_o the_o point_n but_o then_o 3._o all_o 3._o that_o god_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o and_o the_o creature_n nothing_o at_o all_o the_o three_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o law_n through_o the_o spirit_n be_v this_o that_o god_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o and_o the_o creature_n nothing_o at_o all_o god_n have_v gather_v up_o all_o into_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v save_v by_o fulfil_v the_o law_n or_o by_o any_o other_o way_n that_o he_o alone_o may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o that_o the_o creature_n may_v not_o have_v whereof_o to_o boast_v therefore_o he_o do_v all_o free_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o by_o the_o law_n shall_v no_o man_n live_v be_v justify_v for_o if_o righteousness_n be_v by_o the_o law_n than_o may_v man_n have_v whereof_o to_o glory_v but_o the_o great_a design_n of_o god_n be_v his_o own_o glory_n which_o he_o will_v not_o give_v to_o another_o and_o therefore_o have_v he_o free_v we_o from_o the_o law_n and_o glorify_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n towards_o we_o that_o believe_v in_o that_o we_o through_o the_o spirit_n be_v free_v from_o the_o law_n which_o bring_v we_o under_o the_o curse_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v under_o the_o oldness_n of_o the_o letter_n but_o be_v of_o the_o circumcision_n which_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o rejoice_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n i_o shall_v here_o come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o all_o but_o there_o two_o or_o three_o queery_n first_o to_o be_v answer_v the_o first_o be_v that_o which_o saint_n paul_n both_o make_v and_o answer_n have_v rom._n 7.5_o 6._o declare_v this_o truth_n here_o hold_v forth_o in_o the_o text_n that_o we_o be_v dead_a unto_o the_o law_n and_o free_v from_o the_o oldness_n of_o the_o letter_n that_o we_o migot_n serve_v in_o the_o newness_n of_o the_o spirit_n this_o queree_n he_o make_v to_o prevent_v it_o in_o other_o be_v the_o law_n sin_n then_o to_o which_o the_o answer_n may_v be_v in_o the_o apostle_n word_n god_n forbid_v i_o say_v god_n forbid_v that_o any_o man_n shall_v so_o conceive_v that_o that_o which_o be_v give_v immediate_o from_o god_n be_v sin_n no_o say_v the_o apostle_n the_o law_n be_v holy_a and_o the_o commandment_n holy_a just_a and_o good_a it_o speak_v nothing_o but_o holiness_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o purity_n in_o it_o i_o need_v stand_v no_o long_o in_o this_o to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o purity_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v so_o apparent_a but_o 2._o queerie_n 2_o the_o next_o queerie_a will_v be_v that_o which_o the_o same_o apostle_n in_o another_o 3.19_o another_o gal._n 3.19_o place_n also_o make_v and_o that_o be_v this_o wherefore_o then_o serve_v the_o law_n answe_n answ_n the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o this_o to_o be_v the_o use_n of_o the_o law_n viz._n to_o convince_v every_o man_n and_o woman_n of_o their_o miserable_a condition_n out_o of_o christ_n and_o this_o it_o do_v as_o will_v appear_v if_o you_o consider_v this_o that_o no_o man_n can_v come_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n or_o be_v advance_v to_o the_o beatifical_a vision_n but_o those_o that_o be_v pure_a those_o that_o be_v holy_a for_o as_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v god_n so_o that_o no_o unclean_a thing_n shall_v stand_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o most_o holy_a god_n for_o he_o be_v of_o pure_a eye_n then_o to_o behold_v iniquity_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v give_v forth_o this_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n for_o all_o to_o walk_v by_o in_o general_a it_o be_v a_o holy_a law_n and_o have_v declare_v that_o in_o it_o he_o set_v before_o man_n life_n and_o death_n blessing_n and_o curse_n but_o man_n have_v in_o he_o by_o nature_n the_o seed_n and_o root_n of_o all_o corruption_n have_v therefore_o a_o will_n to_o do_v evil_a but_o none_o to_o do_v good_a and_o have_v first_o lose_v his_o first_o image_n can_v never_o keep_v this_o law_n for_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o all_o come_v short_a by_o nature_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n hold_v forth_o in_o this_o law_n and_o therefore_o be_v in_o this_o condition_n must_v at_o last_o needs_o sink_v into_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n and_o the_o burn_a lake_n where_o the_o worm_n die_v not_o and_o the_o fire_n be_v not_o quench_v if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o mediator_n step_v in_o between_o to_o bring_v in_o everlasting_a righteousness_n in_o which_o sinner_n may_v stand_v complete_a before_o god_n and_o to_o redeem_v they_o from_o this_o law_n which_o because_o of_o sin_n put_v they_o into_o this_o deplorable_a condition_n so_o that_o now_o all_o do_v see_v may_v see_v or_o shall_v see_v their_o miserable_a condition_n by_o the_o law_n not_o have_v a_o saviour_n and_o that_o be_v now_o the_o use_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o much_o in_o effect_n the_o apostle_n hold_v forth_o 1_o tim._n 1.9_o 10._o have_v speak_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n of_o some_o that_o will_v be_v teacher_n of_o the_o law_n and_o turn_v from_o the_o

and_o love_n the_o law_n hold_v forth_o purity_n but_o some_o say_v he_o that_o will_v be_v teacher_n of_o the_o law_n know_v not_o what_o they_o say_v nor_o whereof_o they_o affirm_v it_o seem_v they_o either_o do_v as_o the_o pharisee_n seek_v righteousness_n in_o the_o law_n or_o go_v it_o may_v be_v a_o little_a further_o mix_v law_n and_o gospel_n preach_v that_o man_n must_v be_v save_v partly_o by_o the_o law_n and_o partly_o by_o christ_n or_o some_o such_o like_a doctrine_n but_o positive_o to_o say_v what_o it_o be_v i_o can_v nor_o be_v it_o much_o material_a to_o our_o

be_v pure_a and_o hold_v forth_o purity_n to_o all_o and_o all_o that_o come_v short_a of_o the_o purity_n thereof_o be_v under_o the_o curse_n thereof_o be_v out_o of_o christ_n and_o not_o pure_a in_o he_o and_o righteous_a in_o he_o know_v that_o the_o law_n be_v good_a if_o a_o man_n use_v it_o lawful_o that_o be_v if_o it_o be_v right_o apply_v if_o we_o preach_v the_o law_n and_o all_o the_o terror_n thereof_o unto_o all_o that_o be_v out_o of_o christ_n and_o be_v not_o righteous_a by_o he_o know_v say_v he_o that_o the_o law_n be_v not_o make_v for_o a_o righteous_a man_n but_o
