thus_o if_o in_o christ_n we_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o power_n of_o our_o sin_n by_o his_o quicken_a grace_n and_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o they_o by_o the_o free_a pardon_n which_o be_v to_o

miserable_a man_n happy_a they_o can_v infuse_v the_o least_o spark_n of_o spiritual_a life_n into_o any_o 2._o we_o see_v the_o apostle_n think_v it_o meet_v to_o put_v man_n often_o in_o mind_n of_o their_o misery_n by_o nature_n and_o great_a reason_n for_o it_o exalt_v the_o praise_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o christ_n and_o it_o may_v serve_v to_o humble_a man_n for_o their_o

and_o piety_n with_o all_o life_n and_o power_n see_v they_o have_v be_v so_o long_a slave_n to_o sin_n and_o last_o the_o apostle_n rip_v up_o this_o matter_n of_o purpose_n to_o withdraw_v their_o mind_n from_o tradition_n and_o philosophical_a dream_n dead_a in_o sin_n they_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n both_o if_o you_o respect_v their_o public_a estate_n or_o each_o particular_a person_n if_o

of_o hurtful_a passion_n and_o lust_n beside_o his_o defect_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o that_o warmth_n of_o the_o holy_a affection_n of_o love_n fear_v trust_v and_o joy_n in_o god_n

your_o estate_n of_o nature_n you_o be_v dead_a in_o actual_a sin_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o original_a sin_n you_o live_v in_o the_o uncircumcision_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o since_o you_o be_v

ceremony_n though_o they_o be_v ordinance_n of_o god_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o they_o be_v hand-writing_n against_o we_o and_o now_o christ_n have_v cancel_v they_o and_o fasten_v the_o obligation_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o so_o take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v never_o more_o have_v mind_n to_o they_o flesh_n and_o the_o rather_o because_o our_o saviour_n have_v not_o only_o cancel_v they_o but_o he_o have_v spoil_v the_o devil_n which_o have_v power_n to_o execute_v the_o forfeiture_n of_o these_o bond_n i_o say_v both_o in_o himself_o on_o the_o

their_o arrest_n now_o therefore_o i_o come_v to_o the_o conclusion_n which_o i_o direct_v distinct_o first_o against_o the_o ceremony_n then_o against_o philosophy_n and_o last_o against_o

to_o come_v and_o now_o in_o christ_n we_o have_v the_o substance_n and_o body_n of_o they_o the_o like_a i_o say_v against_o philosophy_n and_o in_o special_a against_o angel_n worship_n let_v no_o

and_o the_o matter_n follow_v in_o this_o chapter_n from_o the_o coherence_n with_o the_o former_a chapter_n i_o observe_v these_o things-first_a that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o holiness_n of_o life_n without_o faith_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n first_o instruct_v they_o in_o matter_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v a_o true_a rule_n whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n and_o may_v be_v

in_o his_o general_n thou_o may_v be_v painful_a and_o diligent_a but_o thou_o can_v not_o be_v every_o way_n a_o faithful_a and_o sound_a heart_a 3_o husband_n wife_n servant_n child_n etc_n etc_n till_o thou_o be_v a_o good_a man_n or_o good_a woman_n in_o respect_n of_o grace_n and_o godliness_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v first_o seek_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n kingdom_n and_o it_o may_v serve_v for_o direction_n unto_o such_o as_o choose_v wife_n or_o servant_n or_o the_o like_a 4_o if_o they_o be_v not_o faithful_a to_o god_n how_o can_v thou_o be_v assure_v they_o will_v prove_v faithful_a to_o thou_o moreover_o will_v thou_o have_v thy_o servant_n or_o child_n to_o be_v amend_v then_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o powerful_a preach_n of_o the_o word_n and_o call_v upon_o they_o to_o get_v into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o godly_a that_o they_o may_v learn_v to_o be_v good_a abroad_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o then_o thou_o may_v hope_v to_o find_v they_o by_o proof_n and_o daily_a experience_n trusty_a and_o faithful_a in_o thy_o business_n 2._o final_o this_o reprove_v both_o the_o sinfulness_n and_o folly_n of_o many_o carnal_a pa●ents_n and_o master_n they_o never_o care_v so_o their_o servant_n do_v their_o work_n though_o they_o altogether_o neglect_v god_n work_n and_o many_o time_n they_o restrain_v their_o servant_n and_o child_n and_o will_v not_o let_v they_o hear_v sermon_n or_o come_v into_o godly_a company_n as_o if_o that_o be_v the_o way_n to_o make_v they_o idle_a and_o careless_a whereas_o we_o see_v the_o clean_a contrary_a to_o be_v true_a second_o that_o man_n be_v never_o likely_a to_o hold_v out_o and_o prove_v sound_a in_o the_o reformation_n and_o new_a obedience_n of_o their_o life_n till_o they_o fall_v in_o love_n with_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o grow_v in_o some_o measure_n weary_a of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n thereof_o 〈◊〉_d thus_o of_o the_o general_a observation_n from_o the_o

that_o he_o shall_v ever_o be_v stir_v with_o the_o temptation_n or_o enticement_n or_o occasion_n of_o evil_a but_o my_o meaning_n be_v that_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o in_o the_o most_o sin_n a_o

before_o i_o answer_v the_o apostle_n may_v well_o use_v this_o exhortation_n for_o diverse_a reason_n ans._n first_o many_o of_o they_o perhaps_o be_v dead_a but_o in_o appearance_n they_o profess_v
