A41355	The marrow of modern divinity touching both the covenant of works, and the covenant of grace, with their use and end, both in the time of the Old Testament, and in the time of the New : wherein every one may cleerly see how far forth he bringeth the law into the case of justification, and so deserverh the name of legalist : and how far forth he rejecteth the law, in the case of sanctification, and so deserveth the name of Antinomist : with the middle path between them both, which by Iesus Christ leadeth to eternall life : in a dialogue, betwixt Evangelista, a minister of the Gospel, Nomista, a legalist, Antinomista, an Antinomian, and Neophytus, a young Christian / by the author, E.F. ; before the which there is prefixed the commendatory epistles of divers divines of great esteem in the citie of London ; whereunto is also added, the substance of a	Fisher, Edward, fl. 1627-1655.; Hamilton, Patrick, 1504?-1528.

man_n soul_n do_v re-aspire_a towards_o god_n the_o creator_n when_o as_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o every_o man_n soul_n natural_o be_v bend_v towards_o the_o creature_n to_o seek_v a_o rest_n

as_o it_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o receive_v the_o child_n refuse_v it_o and_o still_o cry_v in_o strength_n of_o desire_n after_o the_o dug_n yet_o do_v not_o the_o child_n in_o this_o estate_n know_v by_o any_o intellectual_a power_n and_o understanding_n what_o itself_o desire_v even_o so_o man_n poor_a soul_n do_v cry_v to_o god_n as_o for_o its_o proper_a nourishment_n but_o his_o

yet_o in_o that_o they_o have_v the_o name_n of_o christian_n put_v upon_o they_o in_o their_o baptism_n and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o do_v often_o repeat_v the_o lord_n prayer_n the_o apostle_n

and_o then_o and_o in_o that_o they_o have_v divers_a time_n receive_v the_o sacrament_n they_o will_v not_o be_v persuade_v but_o that_o god_n be_v well_o please_v with_o they_o and_o a_o man_n may_v

as_o they_o be_v any_o way_n a_o transgression_n of_o that_o covenant_n for_o you_o be_v free_v from_o that_o covenant_n and_o so_o consequent_o from_o sin_v against_o it_o must_v needs_o likewise_o

you_o be_v to_o conceive_v that_o you_o be_v under_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o whensoever_o you_o do_v swerve_v or_o go_v away_o from_o the_o rule_n of_o any_o of_o the_o ten_o

if_o you_o be_v not_o grieve_v for_o it_o and_o do_v not_o reform_v it_o christ_n will_v chastise_v you_o for_o it_o either_o by_o hide_v his_o face_n and_o withdraw_v the_o light_n of_o his_o

that_o be_v the_o penalty_n of_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o if_o you_o or_o any_o believer_n else_o do_v transgress_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n if_o need_v be_v 1.6_o you_o shall_v be_v

better_a or_o worse_o so_o many_o chapter_n must_v be_v read_v and_o so_o many_o sermon_n must_v be_v hear_v and_o so_o many_o time_n must_v pray_v in_o one_o day_n and_o so_o many_o day_n in_o the_o

mention_v do_v find_v true_a rest_n for_o their_o soul_n in_o god_n evan._n ineeed_o i_o be_o persuade_v there_o be_v some_o man_n that_o be_v careful_a to_o perform_v such_o duty_n in_o obedience_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n as_o conceive_v they_o to_o be_v the_o way_n wherein_o he_o be_v accustom_v to_o meet_v his_o people_n and_o give_v they_o a_o extraordinary_a visit_n as_o also_o conceive_v they_o to_o be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o he_o do_v ordinary_o beget_v and_o increase_v faith_n whereby_o they_o be_v enable_v to_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o so_o to_o have_v peace_n and_o rest_n in_o he_o and_o therefore_o if_o they_o do_v omit_v any_o of_o these_o duty_n when_o they_o conceive_v that_o god_n call_v they_o thereunto_o they_o be_v trouble_v in_o their_o mind_n and_o vex_v at_o themselves_o for_o be_v disobedient_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o for_o miss_v his_o kind_a visit_n and_o omit_v the_o mean_n of_o increase_v their_o faith_n now_o such_o man_n as_o these_o may_v and_o doubtless_o do_v find_v true_a rest_n to_o their_o soul_n in_o god_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o religious_a exercise_n but_o alas_o i_o fear_v i_o that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o such_o man_n as_o be_v so_o religious_o exercise_v and_o be_v of_o such_o disposition_n as_o i_o have_v show_v do_v rather_o conceive_v that_o as_o they_o have_v offend_v and_o displease_v god_n by_o their_o former_a disobedience_n so_o they_o must_v pacify_v and_o please_v he_o by_o their_o future_a obedience_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v careful_a to_o exercise_v themselves_o in_o this_o way_n of_o duty_n and_o that_o way_n of_o worship_n and_o all_o to_o that_o end_n yea_o and_o they_o conceive_v that_o they_o have_v corrupt_v defile_v and_o pollute_a themselves_o by_o their_o fall_n into_o sin_n they_o must_v also_o purge_v cleanse_v and_o purify_v themselves_o by_o rise_v out_o of_o sin_n and_o walk_v in_o new_a obedience_n and_o so_o all_o the_o good_a they_o do_v and_o all_o the_o evil_a they_o eschew_v be_v to_o pacify_v god_n and_o appease_v their_o own_o conscience_n and_o if_o they_o seek_v rest_n to_o their_o soul_n this_o way_n why_o it_o be_v the_o way_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n where_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o reach_v god_n nay_o it_o be_v the_o way_n to_o come_v to_o god_n out_o of_o christ_n where_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o come_v near_o he_o he_o be_v a_o consume_a fire_n neo._n then_o sir_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o god_n in_o christ_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n be_v
