A13024 The Christians sacrifice much better then all the legall sacrifices of the Iewes; and without the which, all the said legall sacrifices of the Iewes, euen when they were in force, were not acceptable to God. Or, a logicall and theologicall exposition of the two first verses of the twelfth to the Romanes, with all the doctrine in the said two verses, plainly laid forth, and fitly applied according as these times do require the same. Wherein also besides the orthodoxall exposition of the said words, diuers other places of Scripture by the way occurring, before somewhat obscure, are so naturally interpreted, as that the iudicious reader shall thinke his paines well bestowed in vouchsafing to reade this treatise following. With the authors postscript to his children, as it were his last will and testament vnto them. Stoughton, Thomas. 1622 (1622) STC 23314; ESTC S100120 224,816 288

again_o and_o do_v not_o you_o forget_v yourself_o that_o think_v to_o take_v i_o nap_v yourself_o be_v nap_v for_o to_o omit_v that_o before_o in_o say_v as_o now_o you_o charge_v i_o that_o all_o god_n mercy_n go_v together_o i_o speak_v only_o of_o his_o mercy_n for_o the_o life_n to_o come_v i_o have_v now_o speak_v of_o the_o mercy_n of_o this_o life_n which_o be_v give_v more_o in_o

in_o the_o singular_a number_n although_o therefore_o all_o god_n common_a mercy_n for_o the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o accompany_v salvation_n do_v go_v together_o so_o that_o where_o there_o be_v one_o there_o be_v all_o yet_o i_o say_v also_o before_o that_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v give_v in_o several_a measure_n touch_v the_o particular_n knowledge_n faith_n hope_n love_n patience_n

to_o be_v say_v of_o the_o rest_n this_o therefore_o be_v my_o meaning_n that_o every_o man_n the_o more_o knowledge_n the_o more_o faith_n he_o have_v the_o more_o hope_n the_o more_o love_n and_o the_o more_o and_o great_a measure_n he_o have_v of_o any_o other_o mercy_n the_o more_o he_o give_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o the_o more_o glorify_v of_o god_n let_v no_o man_n
