place_n they_o often_o will_v not_o exact_o agree_v or_o correspond_v as_o if_o in_o speak_v of_o god_n pardon_v and_o justify_v a_o sinner_n we_o shall_v take_v our_o measure_n of_o pardon_n and_o justification_n strict_o from_o what_o obtain_v among_o man_n we_o shall_v find_v a_o great_a difference_n and_o disagreement_n for_o plain_a it_o be_v that_o according_a to_o humane_a measure_n the_o

that_o be_v at_o a_o humane_a bar_n a_o justify_v person_n need_v no_o pardon_n his_o case_n admit_v of_o none_o if_o he_o be_v justify_v pardon_n be_v absurd_o talk_v of_o and_o so_o if_o he_o be_v pardon_v that_o do_v plain_o imply_v that_o he_o be_v not_o justify_v it_o be_v quite_o otherwise_o if_o you_o bring_v these_o thing_n to_o the_o gospel_n and_o god_n deal_n with_o sinner_n i_o can_v now_o spend_v time_n in_o show_v you_o distinct_o how_o these_o thing_n do_v lie_v and_o be_v very_o capable_a of_o be_v accommodate_v in_o the_o sinner_n case_n some_o resemblance_n will_v appear_v not_o a_o exact_a or_o entire_a correspondency_n the_o instance_n however_o serve_v our_o present_a purpose_n to_o show_v that_o god_n procedure_n and_o method_n in_o his_o dispensation_n towards_o man_n will_v not_o in_o all_o thing_n square_a with_o humane_a measure_n again_o if_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n covenant_n in_o jesus_n christ_n we_o can_v take_v our_o measure_n from_o humane_a covenant_n that_o pass_v between_o man_n and_o man_n especial_o one_o private_a man_n and_o another_o for_o there_o the_o person_n be_v under_o no_o obligation_n before_o their_o mutual_a consent_n it_o be_v not_o so_o between_o god_n and_o man_n god_n covenant_n be_v law_n as_o well_o as_o covenant_n and_o so_o a_o man_n be_v before_o he_o consent_v oblige_v to_o consent_n therefore_o here_o again_o it_o appear_v gospel-doctrine_n be_v not_o to_o be_v exact_o measure_v by_o humane_a model_n nor_o shall_v this_o be_v too_o earnest_o endeavour_v we_o shall_v not_o too_o much_o set_v our_o mind_n upon_o it_o it_o be_v to_o offer_v at_o a_o thing_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n not_o practicable_a and_o there_o be_v too_o much_o of_o man_n in_o it_o 6._o when_o there_o
