of_o christ_n in_o the_o government_n of_o his_o church_n and_o the_o law_n that_o be_v for_o the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n it_o will_v be_v of_o very_o great_a use_n for_o you_o to_o know_v

to_o make_v new_a law_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o their_o own_o prudence_n what_o they_o conceive_v to_o be_v fit_a in_o way_n of_o prudence_n no_o but_o they_o must_v fetch_v the_o law_n out_o of_o his_o word_n and_o impose_v none_o but_o the_o same_o law_n that_o be_v in_o his_o word_n they_o must_v have_v a_o scriptum_n est_fw-la it_o be_v write_v here_o be_v these_o and_o these_o

his_o church_n now_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o church_n because_o they_o be_v a_o society_n of_o man_n they_o have_v some_o thing_n natural_a and_o some_o thing_n civil_a among_o they_o so_o far_o

which_o belong_v to_o they_o mere_o as_o they_o be_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n beside_o that_o that_o they_o have_v need_n of_o as_o they_o be_v man_n and_o natural_a and_o civil_a society_n i_o

only_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o word_n and_o there_o be_v not_o that_o liberty_n of_o make_v new_a law_n in_o the_o church_n as_o there_o be_v of_o make_v new_a law_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o state_n and_o that_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n that_o be_v a_o four_o the_o law_n be_v different_a the_o law_n be_v different_a not_o only_o that_o they_o be_v by_o divine_a revelation_n in_o the_o one_o and_o leave_v to_o humane_a prudence_n in_o the_o other_o but_o 2_o lie_v in_o the_o one_o the_o law_n bind_v conscience_n in_o the_o other_o they_o do_v not_o they_o do_v not_o bind_v conscience_n any_o further_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v bind_v except_o it_o be_v in_o case_n of_o scandal_n and_o contempt_n so_o our_o divine_n that_o have_v be_v the_o most_o orthodox_n have_v go_v that_o the_o law_n of_o man_n in_o the_o state_n they_o bind_v not_o conscience_n that_o be_v if_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v he_o shall_v in_o conscience_n be_v bind_v over_o to_o eternal_a death_n for_o not_o do_v it_o this_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a bondage_n a_o cruel_a yoke_n but_o thus_o if_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v be_v right_a and_o just_a than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n may_v bind_v conscience_n for_o then_o there_o come_v in_o a_o law_n of_o god_n if_o the_o thing_n be_v just_a and_o right_a that_o be_v require_v or_o however_o if_o i_o know_v nothing_o to_o the_o contrary_a but_o it_o may_v be_v just_a and_o right_a i_o must_v not_o break_v the_o law_n of_o man_n so_o as_o to_o give_v scandal_n or_o in_o a_o way_n of_o contempt_n but_o if_o it_o be_v private_o so_o as_o it_o be_v no_o scandal_n nor_o no_o contempt_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n bind_v i_o not_o than_o my_o conscience_n be_v not_o bind_v over_o as_o guilty_a of_o eternal_a death_n if_o so_o be_v i_o do_v not_o every_o thing_n that_o man_n require_v but_o now_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v such_o as_o bind_v conscience_n as_o they_o come_v from_o he_o he_o be_v such_o a_o king_n that_o i_o say_v because_o they_o come_v from_o he_o and_o from_o his_o will_n though_o we_o see_v no_o reason_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o thing_n though_o they_o have_v nothing_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n but_o mere_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o tie_v conscience_n and_o to_o bind_v we_o even_o upon_o pain_n of_o eternal_a death_n to_o obedience_n five_o christ_n kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n that_o homage_n that_o the_o saint_n do_v unto_o christ_n it_o be_v not_o worldly_a but_o spiritual_a the_o worship_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v not_o worldly_a but_o spiritual_a now_o the_o king_n of_o this_o world_n they_o may_v appoint_v what_o kind_n of_o worship_n they_o please_v that_o be_v what_o ceremony_n they_o will_v whereby_o their_o subject_n shall_v tender_v up_o their_o homage_n to_o they_o and_o now_o man_n have_v venture_v to_o be_v so_o bold_a with_o christ_n the_o king_n because_o man_n may_v tender_v up_o their_o homage_n unto_o their_o earthly_a king_n by_o any_o way_n invent_v of_o their_o own_o therefore_o they_o have_v think_v that_o they_o may_v presume_v to_o tender_v up_o their_o homage_n to_o christ_n their_o spiritual_a king_n by_o any_o way_n of_o invent_a worship_n and_o therein_o be_v a_o great_a error_n they_o look_v upon_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n only_o in_o a_o carnal_a way_n whereas_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v such_o as_o all_o our_o homage_n that_o we_o tender_v up_o to_o he_o must_v be_v spiritual_a it_o must_v be_v heavenly_a it_o must_v be_v from_o heaven_n it_o must_v be_v from_o christ_n himself_o it_o must_v be_v from_o some_o institution_n and_o appointment_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o more_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n do_v prevail_v the_o more_o spiritual_a shall_v that_o homage_n be_v that_o the_o subject_n tender_v up_o to_o he_o &_o therefore_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n speak_v of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n with_o reference_n unto_o that_o which_o be_v then_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n he_o call_v even_o those_o way_n of_o worship_n in_o the_o

as_o i_o tell_v you_o will_v teach_v we_o that_o but_o now_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o bring_v salvation_n teach_v we_o more_o to_o deny_v all_o ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o

be_v the_o great_a argument_n in_o the_o gospel_n to_o cause_v we_o to_o live_v godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n look_v for_o the_o bless_a hope_n oh_o we_o look_v for_o a_o bless_a hope_n that_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v oh_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v this_o hope_n this_o bless_a hope_n till_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v to_o we_o but_o since_o we_o apprehend_v a_o bless_a hope_n the_o

glorious_a appear_v of_o the_o great_a god_n than_o ever_o yet_o have_v appear_v i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v of_o this_o text_n god_n do_v never_o appear_v great_a and_o glorious_a in_o comparison_n of_o what_o he_o will_v appear_v and_o bless_v be_v those_o who_o conversation_n shall_v be_v such_o that_o can_v look_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o this_o great_a god_n with_o joy_n when_o

and_o this_o teach_v we_o to_o deny_v all_o ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o oh_o do_v you_o look_v to_o be_v save_v have_v you_o a_o bless_a hope_n and_o do_v you_o expect_v the_o appear_v of_o the_o great_a god_n in_o glory_n have_v the_o gospel_n reveal_v these_o thing_n unto_o you_o o_o let_v this_o that_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v teach_v we_o to_o deny_v all_o

this_o to_o we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o he_o be_v a_o great_a king_n he_o have_v a_o kingdom_n but_o he_o have_v a_o kingdom_n that_o

first_o we_o shall_v show_v how_o the_o gospel_n hold_v forth_o this_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o this_o world_n mark_v those_o scripture_n in_o john_n 18._o 36._o jesus_n

to_o live_v exact_o according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n it_o be_v beneath_o the_o conversation_n that_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n if_o so_o be_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v

the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v go_v beyond_o what_o ever_o any_o have_v do_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o yet_o oh_o lord_n how_o short_a do_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n

to_o every_o one_o house_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o parish_n they_o will_v say_v they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o what_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v there_o and_o what_o justice_n be_v there_o among_o man_n to_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v by_o nay_o this_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o will_v examine_v many_o professor_n of_o religion_n and_o their_o

they_o will_v come_v and_o make_v profession_n of_o religion_n and_o think_v it_o very_o much_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v deny_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n why_o be_v they_o not_o christian_n and_o their_o child_n christian_n and_o yet_o must_v they_o not_o be_v baptise_a and_o yet_o they_o be_v beneath_o heathen_n heathen_n will_v rise_v in_o judgement_n

you_o live_v in_o that_o your_o conscience_n condemn_v you_o for_o a_o heathen_a will_v not_o do_v it_o a_o heathen_a will_v not_o wilful_o live_v in_o a_o sin_n that_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o be_v a_o sin_n many_o of_o the_o heathen_n come_v to_o that_o and_o what_o way_n have_v you_o make_v in_o profession_n perhaps_o you_o have_v seem_v to_o be_v in_o the_o school_n of_o christ_n many_o year_n and_o other_o take_v you_o for_o a_o forward_a professor_n and_o yet_o your_o conscience_n tell_v you_o that_o you_o live_v in_o some_o sin_n that_o be_v know_v sin_n to_o you_o but_o because_o

and_o no_o great_a one_o i_o say_v in_o this_o you_o be_v beneath_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v far_o from_o have_v your_o conversation_n such_o as_o become_v the_o

yea_o if_o it_o be_v among_o themselves_o and_o they_o will_v hardly_o company_n with_o you_o there_o be_v many_o that_o make_v profession_n of_o religion_n that_o i_o say_v if_o they_o live_v among_o

be_v beyond_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n first_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n teach_v to_o worship_v a_o god_n that_o many_o of_o you_o do_v you_o worship_v god_n but_o this_o be_v that_o that_o

in_o that_o particular_a not_o only_o i_o be_o convince_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o my_o creator_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v

that_o worship_n if_o thou_o go_v no_o further_a god_n reject_v it_o indeed_o we_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n as_o a_o creator_n god_n will_v have_v that_o i_o but_o if_o he_o have_v not_o that_o and_o

the_o first_o a_o man_n that_o worship_v god_n as_o a_o father_n and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o do_v worship_n god_n as_o a_o cretor_n too_o but_o a_o man_n may_v
