Wherefore my brethren ye also are become dead to the law by the body of CHRIST that ye should be married to another even to Him who is raysed from the dead Whence it followeth That if we be dead to the law that we should be married to CHRIST therefore that CHRIST only is the Husband of His Church as the same Apostle showeth Ephes. 5. 23.
