of_o faith_n and_o after_o once_o i_o understand_v this_o doctrine_n of_o free-remission_n and_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o than_o i_o love_v repentance_n as_o for_o the_o mortification_n of_o sin_n you_o know_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v not_o sin_n reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n 14._o rom._n 6.12_o &_o 14._o or_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o why_o for_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n so_o then_o it_o be_v be_v under_o grace_n that_o do_v mortify_v sin_n and_o as_o for_o the_o matter_n of_o obedience_n you_o know_v what_o the_o psalmist_n say_v there_o be_v mercy_n with_o thou_o o_o lord_n 4_o psal_n 130_o 4_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v fear_v that_o be_v that_o thou_o may_v be_v serve_v that_o thou_o may_v be_v obey_v so_o that_o obedience_n also_o come_v from_o the_o sight_n of_o mercy_n and_o of_o free-remission_n now_o if_o free-remission_n and_o the_o sense_n thereof_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o holiness_n then_o sure_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o can_v be_v no_o enemy_n but_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o real_a friend_n unto_o all_o our_o spiritual_a life_n object_n but_o by_o way_n of_o objection_n it_o will_v be_v say_v in_o the_o three_o place_n this_o doctrine_n of_o free-remission_n and_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o seem_v to_o carry_v somewhat_o with_o it_o that_o be_v opposite_a unto_o grace_n and_o holiness_n for_o the_o more_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v unto_o the_o law_n and_o take_v himself_o to_o be_v so_o the_o more_o obedient_a he_o will_v be_v to_o the_o law_n but_o now_o a_o man_n never_o take_v himself_o more_o to_o be_v bind_v unto_o the_o law_n than_o when_o he_o seek_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o he_o will_v be_v most_o obedient_a answ_n for_o answer_v you_o must_v know_v that_o the_o word_n law_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v take_v two_o way_n either_o it_o be_v take_v for_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n thus_o if_o you_o keep_v the_o ten_o commandment_n perfect_o you_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o this_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n sometime_o the_o law_n be_v take_v for_o the_o ten_o commandment_n the_o rule_n of_o man_n life_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n a_o christian_n be_v dead_a unto_o the_o law_n and_o be_v free_v from_o it_o but_o in_o the_o second_o sense_n a_o believer_n a_o justify_v person_n be_v more_o bind_v to_o the_o law_n to_o observe_v it_o as_o a_o rule_n of_o life_n than_o ever_o he_o be_v only_o you_o must_v know_v there_o be_v a_o twofold_a bond_n there_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o love_n and_o there_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o fear_n as_o there_o be_v the_o law_n of_o love_n and_o the_o law_n of_o fear_n love_n and_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n be_v strong_a than_o fear_n and_o the_o bond_n of_o fear_n for_o fear_n be_v servant_n to_o love_n fear_n be_v the_o hand_n maid_n to_o love_n for_o you_o never_o fear_v the_o lose_n of_o any_o good_a thing_n but_o what_o you_o first_o love_n fear_n be_v the_o servant_n to_o love_n and_o therefore_o love_n be_v strong_a than_o fear_n and_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n strong_a than_o the_o bond_n of_o fear_n now_o though_o a_o justify_v person_n be_v not_o bind_v unto_o the_o law_n with_o the_o bond_n of_o a_o servile-fear_a yet_o he_o be_v bind_v unto_o the_o law_n with_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n and_o so_o he_o be_v more_o obedient_a as_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n be_v strong_a than_o the_o bond_n of_o fear_n a_o man_n must_v needs_o be_v obedient_a unto_o christ_n that_o take_v himself_o to_o be_v none_o of_o his_o own_o but_o christ_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n 6.20_o 1_o cor._n 6.20_o glorify_v christ_n with_o your_o body_n because_o you_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n and_o because_o you_o be_v go_n so_o long_o as_o a_o man_n seek_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o by_o the_o law_n so_o long_o he_o look_v upon_o himself_o as_o his_o own_o but_o when_o a_o man_n see_v that_o he_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o than_o he_o look_v upon_o himself_o as_o christ_n that_o he_o be_v not_o his_o own_o and_o so_o he_o be_v more_o obedient_a unto_o christ_n than_o ever_o be_v be_v before_o object_n 2_o second_o if_o this_o be_v such_o a_o principle_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o man_n sin_v the_o more_o as_o they_o hear_v more_o of_o this_o free-remission_n and_o justification_n of_o a_o poor_a sinner_n by_o faith_n alone_o oh_o say_v one_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o gracious_a and_o therefore_o i_o will_v now_o live_v as_o i_o listen_v and_o repent_v afterward_o if_o this_o doctrine_n this_o truth_n and_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v the_o principle_n of_o all_o our_o holiness_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o man_n sin_v more_o hereby_o answ_n i_o pray_v how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v if_o that_o water_n do_v cleanse_v that_o it_o do_v not_o cleanse_v the_o blackmore_n and_o if_o fire_n do_v warm_a how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o it_o do_v not_o put_v heat_n into_o the_o dead_a man_n and_o if_o the_o sun_n do_v enlighten_v how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v it_o do_v not_o enlighten_v those_o that_o be_v blind_a i_o may_v ask_v you_o the_o reason_n likewise_o but_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o the_o reason_n the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o man_n be_v contrary_a unto_o god_n and_o all_o that_o do_v make_v this_o use_n &_o application_n of_o the_o lord_n mercy_n and_o grace_n they_o be_v contrary_a unto_o god_n for_o god_n work_v good_a out_o of_o evil_n now_o a_o wicked_a man_n be_v contrary_a unto_o god_n he_o work_v evil_a out_o of_o good_a god_n work_v the_o great_a good_a grace_n out_o of_o the_o great_a evil_a sin_n a_o wicked_a man_n he_o work_v the_o great_a evil_n sin_n out_o of_o the_o great_a good_a god_n love_n and_o grace_n why_o because_o he_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n but_o now_o take_v this_o truth_n and_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o and_o so_o it_o be_v a_o very_a real_a friend_n unto_o all_o our_o grace_n and_o holiness_n quest_n 4_o but_o in_o the_o four_o place_n you_o will_v say_v then_o what_o be_v there_o in_o this_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o or_o free-remission_n that_o do_v advance_v our_o holiness_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v what_o be_v there_o in_o this_o that_o have_v such_o a_o influence_n upon_o our_o life_n to_o make_v we_o the_o more_o holy_a the_o more_o heavenly_a answ_n 1_o first_o the_o more_o a_o man_n do_v forsake_v any_o good_a thing_n of_o his_o own_o for_o christ_n the_o more_o christ_n be_v engage_v to_o give_v a_o man_n his_o good_a thing_n there_o be_v no_o lose_v in_o lose_v for_o jesus_n christ_n what_o you_o lose_v for_o chirst_n you_o shall_v gain_v by_o christ_n and_o the_o great_a and_o sweet_a any_o blessing_n be_v that_o you_o lose_v for_o christ_n the_o great_a blessing_n will_v christ_n give_v unto_o you_o in_o the_o room_n thereof_o now_o what_o near_a thing_n be_v there_o to_o a_o man_n than_o his_o own_o righteousness_n in_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o a_o man_n lay_v down_o all_o his_o own_o righteousness_n at_o the_o foot_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o christ_n be_v engage_v to_o give_v he_o a_o better_a righteousness_n the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n second_o god_n do_v never_o cause_v any_o man_n to_o pass_v under_o any_o relation_n but_o he_o do_v write_v the_o law_n of_o that_o relation_n upon_o his_o heart_n for_o example_n if_o the_o lord_n do_v cause_v a_o man_n to_o pass_v under_o the_o relation_n of_o a_o

cause_v the_o law_n of_o that_o relation_n to_o be_v write_v upon_o his_o heart_n now_o when_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o than_o he_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o as_o many_o as_o receive_v he_o he_o give_v power_n to_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n even_o to_o as_o many_o as_o believe_v on_o his_o name_n john_n 1.12_o i_o say_v when_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o he_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n he_o pass_v under_o that_o relation_n therefore_o then_o do_v the_o lord_n write_v the_o law_n of_o that_o relation_n of_o a_o son_n upon_o
