the_o covenant_n be_v therefore_o better_a to_o believer_n themselves_o in_o that_o they_o be_v oblige_v but_o to_o a_o very_a few_o ceremony_n whilst_o the_o jew_n labour_v under_o a_o burdensome_a yoke_n of_o many_o ceremony_n and_o if_o your_o way_n of_o argue_v be_v good_a it_o will_v prove_v that_o the_o gospel_n be_v worse_a to_o believer_n than_o the_o law_n be_v to_o the_o adult_n jew_n because_o they_o have_v abundance_n of_o religious_a privilege_n to_o wit_n ceremony_n and_o believer_n have_v but_o a_o very_a few_o now_o who_o will_v think_v that_o wise_a and_o good_a man_n shall_v thus_o grope_v at_o noonday_n 5._o you_o quote_v act_n 2._o 38_o 39_o and_o say_v that_o this_o text_n express_o aver_v your_o conclusion_n but_o it_o be_v certain_a the_o promise_n there_o

the_o heathen_a be_v the_o seed_n of_o many_o prayer_n and_o pious_o devote_v therein_o to_o almighty_a god_n from_o the_o womb_n and_o have_v the_o advantage_n of_o a_o early_a education_n in_o the_o

to_o moloch_n so_o neither_o ought_v we_o to_o think_v that_o he_o will_v punish_v the_o infant_n of_o the_o heathen_a with_o devil_n because_o their_o parent_n devote_v they_o to_o idol_n for_o as_o

you_o be_v all_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n for_o as_o many_o as_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n gal._n 3._o 26_o 27._o and_o again_o

all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v not_o to_o be_v circumcise_v such_o be_v the_o many_o thousand_o of_o male_a infant_n who_o die_v before_o they_o be_v eight_o day_n old_a these_o be_v in_o covenant_n and_o their_o salvation_n as_o sure_a as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v circumcise_v the_o female_n also_o be_v in_o covenant_n yet_o not_o to_o be_v circumcise_v if_o you_o

of_o

the_o child_n of_o men._n in_o a_o word_n faith_n apprehend_v or_o believe_v this_o god_n to_o be_v whatsoever_o his_o word_n declare_v he_o to_o be_v which_o together_o with_o his_o work_n of_o

and_o for_o the_o better_a performance_n of_o this_o great_a duty_n it_o be_v good_a to_o know_v the_o cause_n why_o mankind_n of_o all_o other_o creature_n be_v bind_v to_o fear_n god_n i_o say_v

of_o man_n to_o the_o brute_n creature_n and_o their_o disobedience_n to_o he_o be_v effect_n of_o the_o curse_n and_o its_o certain_a the_o curse_n be_v the_o effect_n of_o sin_n but_o in_o these_o thing_n let_v we_o not_o be_v too_o curious_a now_o whether_o in_o case_n man_n have_v not_o sin_v he_o shall_v have_v be_v oblige_v to_o fear_n god_n as_o now_o or_o whether_o he_o shall_v have_v proper_o fear_v god_n at_o all_o may_v be_v inquire_v here_o to_o which_o it_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o see_v god_n have_v endue_v man_n with_o excellent_a reason_n and_o judgement_n and_o yet_o put_v he_o in_o a_o mutable_a state_n and_o give_v he_o notice_n that_o his_o state_n be_v such_o when_o he_o give_v he_o a_o law_n with_o a_o penalty_n upon_o the_o breach_n of_o it_o in_o the_o breach_n of_o which_o he_o shall_v sure_o die_v gen._n 2._o 17._o it_o follow_v that_o man_n be_v even_o then_o bind_v to_o fear_n and_o to_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o his_o majesty_n from_o the_o begin_n before_o sin_n be_v upon_o he_o so_o that_o sin_n be_v not_o the_o original_a cause_n of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n but_o his_o bounty_n towards_o man_n and_o absolute_a sovereignty_n over_o he_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o it_o and_o hence_o we_o may_v learn_v how_o just_a how_o necessary_a it_o be_v for_o we_o who_o be_v of_o the_o fall_a race_n of_o adam_n not_o only_o for_o that_o we_o be_v under_o these_o original_a obligation_n and_o for_o that_o the_o covenant_n which_o we_o be_v under_o as_o christian_n though_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n yet_o be_v true_o conditional_a whatever_o some_o murmur_n to_o the_o contrary_a to_o fear_v the_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o to_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o his_o majesty_n behold_v therefore_o the_o goodness_n and_o severity_n of_o god_n on_o they_o that_o fall_v severity_n but_o towards_o thou_o goodness_n if_o thou_o continue_v in_o his_o goodness_n otherwise_o thou_o also_o shall_v be_v cut_v off_o rom._n 11._o 22._o heb._n
