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.

small_a measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n nom._n but_o sir_n be_v not_o the_o matter_n of_o that_o covenant_n and_o this_o all_o one_o evan._n yea_o indeed_o the_o ten_o commandment_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o both_o covenant_n only_o they_o differ_v in_o the_o form_n ant._n t●●n_a sir_n it_o seem_v that_o the_o promise_n and_o threaten_n contain_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v but_o temporary_a and_o terrestrial_a only_o concern_v the_o good_a and_o evil_a thing_n of_o this_o life_n evan._n this_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o like_o as_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o prophet_n give_v the_o people_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n many_o exhortation_n to_o be_v obedient_a to_o his_o commandment_n and_o many_o dehortation_n from_o disobedience_n thereunto_o even_o so_o do_v he_o back_o they_o with_o many_o promise_n and_o threaten_n concern_v thing_n temporal_a as_o these_o and_o the_o like_a scripture_n do_v witness_v isa._n 1.10_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n you_o ruler_n of_o sodom_n give_v ear_n unto_o the_o law_n of_o our_o god_n you_o people_n of_o gomorrah_n 19.20_o i●_n you_o be_v willing_a and_o obedient_a you_o shall_v eat_v the_o good_a thing_n of_o the_o land_n 9_o but_o if_o you_o refuse_v and_o rebel_n you_o shall_v be_v devour_v with_o the_o sword_n for_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v speak_v it_o and_o jer._n 7_o 3_o amend_v your_o

the_o lord_n god_n behold_v my_o anger_n and_o my_o fury_n shall_v be_v pour_v out_o upon_o this_o place_n 20._o and_o sure_o there_o be_v two_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n do_v so_o first_o because_o as_o all_o man_n be_v bear_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o work●_n they_o be_v natural_o prone_a to_o conceive_v that_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o all_o good_a thing_n do_v depend_v and_o follow_v upon_o their_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n and_o that_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o all_o evil_a thing_n do_v depend_v upon_o and_o follow_v their_o disobedience_n to_o it_o and_o that_o man_n chief_a happiness_n be_v to_o be_v have_v and_o find_v in_o terrestrial_a paradise_n even_o in_o the_o good_a thing_n of_o this_o life_n so_o the_o people_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v near_o to_o adam_n covenant_n and_o paradise_n be_v most_o prone_a to_o such_o conceit_n and_o second_o because_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o celestial_a paradise_n be_v but_o little_o mention_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n they_o for_o the_o most_o part_n have_v but_o a_o glimmer_a knowledge_n of_o they_o and_o so_o can_v not_o yield_v obedience_n free_o as_o son_n therefore_o the_o lord_n see_v it_o meet_v to_o move_v they_o to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o his_o law_n by_o their_o own_o motive_n and_o as_o servant_n or_o child_n under_o age_n ant._n and_o be_v both_o

to_o have_v the_o calamity_n of_o this_o life_n inflict_v upon_o they_o for_o their_o disobedience_n as_o the_o blessing_n of_o this_o life_n confer_v upon_o they_o for_o their_o obedience_n evan._n sure_o the_o word_n of_o the_o preacher_n do_v take_v place_n here_o when_o he_o say_v 9.2_o all_o thing_n come_v alike_o to_o all_o there_o be_v one_o event_n to_o the_o righteous_a and_o to_o the_o wicked_a 12_o be_v not_o moses_n and_o aaron_n for_o their_o disobedience_n hinder_v from_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n as_o well_o as_o other_o 22._o and_o be_v not_o josiah_n for_o his_o disobedience_n to_o god_n command_n slay_v in_o the_o valley_n of_o megiddo_n therefore_o assure_v yourself_o 16.46_o that_o when_o believer_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n do_v transgress_v god_n commandment_n god_n temporal_a wrath_n go_v out_o against_o they_o and_o be_v manifest_a in_o temporal_a calamity_n that_o befall_v they_o as_o well_o as_o other_o only_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n the_o believer_n temporal_a calamity_n have_v no_o eternal_a calamity_n include_v in_o they_o nor_o follow_v of_o they_o and_o their_o temporal_a blessing_n have_v eternal_a blessing_n include_v in_o they_o and_o follow_v of_o they_o and_o the_o unbeliever_n temporal_a blessing_n have_v no_o eternal_a blessing_n include_v in_o they_o nor_o follow_v of_o they_o and_o their_o temporal_a calamity_n have_v eternal_a calamity_n include_v in_o they_o and_o follow_v of_o they_o ant._n then_o sir_n it_o seem_v that_o all_o obedience_n that_o any_o of_o the_o jew_n do_v yield_v to_o god_n commandment_n be_v for_o fear_n of_o temporal_a punishment_n and_o in_o hope_n of_o temporal_a reward_n evan._n sure_o the_o scripture_n seem_v to_o hol●_n forth_o that_o there_o be_v three_o several_a sort_n of_o people_n who_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o they_o do_v all_o of_o they_o differ_v in_o their_o end_n the_o first_o sort_n of_o they_o be_v true_a believer_n who_o according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o faith_n do_v believe_v the_o resurrection_n of_o their_o body_n after_o death_n and_o eternal_a life_n in_o glory_n and_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v obtain_v not_o by_o th●●orkes_n of_o the_o law_n but_o by_o faith_n in_o the_o m●ssi●h_a o●_n promise_v seed_n and_o answerable_o as_o they_o believe_v this_o answerable_o they_o yield_v obedience_n to_o the_o law_n free_o without_o fear_n of_o punishment_n or_o hope_v of_o reward_n but_o alas_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n be_v very_o weak_a in_o the_o most_o of_o they_o and_o the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n very_o strong_a and_o therefore_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n to_o be_v induce_v and_o constrain_v to_o obedience_n for_o fear_n of_o punishment_n and_o hope_v of_o reward_n the_o second_o sort_n of_o they_o be_v the_o sadducee_n and_o their_o sect_n and_o these_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v any_o resurrection_n nor_o any_o life_n but_o the_o life_n of_o this_o world_n 23._o and_o yet_o they_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n that_o god_n may_v bless_v they_o here_o 259._o and_o that_o it_o may_v go_v well_o with_o they_o in_o this_o present_a life_n the_o three_o sort_n and_o indeed_o the_o great_a number_n of_o they_o in_o the_o future_a age_n after_o moses_n be_v the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n and_o their_o sect_n and_o they_o hold_v and_o maintain_v that_o there_o be_v a_o resurrection_n to_o be_v look_v for_o and_o a_o eternal_a life_n after_o death_n and_o therefore_o they_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n not_o only_o to_o obtain_v temporal_a happiness_n but_o eternal_a also_o for_o though_o it_o have_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o make_v know_v unto_o his_o people_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o moses_n 114._o that_o the_o law_n be_v give_v not_o to_o retain_v man_n in_o the_o confidence_n of_o their_o own_o work_n but_o to_o drive_v they_o out_o of_o themselves_o and_o lead_v they_o to_o christ_n the_o promise_a seed_n yet_o after_o that_o time_n the_o priest_n and_o the_o levite_n who_o be_v the_o expounder_n of_o the_o law_n and_o who_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n do_v succeed_v mount_n do_v so_o conceive_v and_o teach_v of_o god_n intention_n in_o give_v the_o law_n as_o though_o it_o have_v be_v that_o they_o by_o their_o obedience_n to_o it_o shall_v obtain_v righteousness_n and_o eternal_a life_n and_o this_o opinion_n be_v so_o confident_o maintain_v and_o so_o general_o embrace_v among_o they_o that_o in_o their_o book_n mechilta_n they_o say_v and_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o

then_o it_o seem_v they_o do_v not_o understand_v and_o consider_v that_o the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n do_v not_o only_o bind_v the_o outward_a man_n but_o also_o the_o inward_a man_n even_o the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n and_o require_v all_o holy_a thought_n motion_n and_o disposition_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n evan._n oh_o no_o they_o neither_o teach_v it_o nor_o understand_v it_o so_o spiritual_o neither_o can_v they_o be_v persuade_v that_o the_o law_n do_v require_v so_o much_o at_o man_n hand_n for_o they_o first_o lay_v this_o down_o for_o a_o certain_a truth_n that_o god_n give_v the_o law_n for_o man_n to_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v by_o his_o obedience_n to_o it_o and_o that_o therefore_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o power_n in_o

your_o own_o accuse_v conscience_n join_v with_o he_o hinder_v you_o any_o long_o from_o christ_n for_o what_o though_o they_o shall_v accuse_v you_o of_o pride_n infidelity_n coveteousnesse_n lust_n

and_o save_v so_o that_o in_o very_a deed_n if_o you_o right_o consider_v it_o they_o do_v you_o more_o good_a than_o hurt_v hereby_o and_o therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o in_o all_o such_o case_n or_o conflict_n take_v the_o counsel_n of_o luther_n who_o say_v when_o thy_o conscience_n be_v thorough_o afraid_a with_o the_o remembrance_n of_o thy_o sin_n past_a and_o the_o devil_n assail_v thou_o with_o great_a violence_n go_v about_o to_o overwhelm_v thou_o with_o heap_n flood_n and_o whole_a sea_n of_o sin_n to_o terrify_v thou_o and_o to_o draw_v thou_o from_o christ_n than_o arm_n

wicked_a sinner_n for_o the_o unworthy_a and_o for_o his_o enemy_n wherefore_o if_o the_o devil_n say_v thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o therefore_o must_v be_v damn_v then_o answer_v you_o and_o say_v because_o thou_o say_v i_o be_o a_o sinner_n therefore_o will_v i_o be_v righteous_a and_o save_v and_o if_o he_o say_v nay_o sinner_n must_v be_v damn_v then_o answer_v you_o and_o say_v no_o for_o i_o fly_v to_o christ_n who_o have_v give_v himself_o for_o my_o sin_n and_o therefore_o in_o that_o thou_o say_v i_o be_o a_o sinner_n thou_o give_v i_o armour_n and_o weapon_n against_o thyself_o that_o with_o thy_o own_o sword_n i_o may_v cut_v thy_o throat_n and_o tread_v thou_o under_o my_o foot_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v it_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o luther_n that_o your_o sin_n shall_v rather_o drive_v you_o to_o christ_n then_o keep_v you_o from_o he_o nom._n but_o sir_n suppose_v he_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o either_o humble_v himself_o or_o repent_v for_o his_o great_a and_o many_o sin_n have_v he_o any_o warrant_v to_o come_v to_o christ_n till_o he_o have_v do_v so_o eva._n i_o see_v you_o have_v not_o yet_o quite_o throw_v down_o your_o totter_a building_n you_o

but_o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v that_o as_o i_o have_v often_o tell_v you_o god_n covenant_n in_o christ_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o so_o every_o way_n a_o free_a covenant_n and_o
