in_o and_o enjoin_v by_o the_o la_o than_o they_o that_o be_v altogether_o under_o the_o la_o and_o without_o christ_n 8_o the_o la_o be_v exceed_o useful_a to_o take_v luen_v off_o from_o that_o damnable_a opinion_n of_o their_o own_o righteousness_n 2_o whether_o good_a work_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n neg._n 1_o i_o do_v altogether_o reject_v this_o expression_n as_o most_o unsavoury_a and_o unbesteme_v the_o protestant_a religion_n 2_o yet_o i_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v as_o impossible_a to_o divide_v good_a work_n from_o faith_n i_o mean_v that_o which_o be_v save_v as_o it_o be_v to_o divide_v the_o light_n from_o the_o sun_n or_o heat_n from_o the_o fire_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o be_v create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n unto_o good_a work_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o they_o 3_o to_o affirm_v that_o good_a work_n be_v a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n be_v in_o effect_n to_o deny_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o only_a mean_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n for_o salvation_n be_v by_o christ_n only_o act._n 4.12_o 3_o whether_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o his_o people_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o their_o sin_n contradiction_n god_n well_o please_v with_o we_o in_fw-la christ_n and_o therefore_o which_o be_v opposite_a not_o displease_v with_o we_o in_fw-la he_o beside_o our_o sin_n be_v do_v away_o in_fw-la he_o ergo_fw-la not_o displease_v with_o we_o for_o sin_n in_v he_o to_o be_v in_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n or_o favour_n and_o yet_o to_o be_v even_o in_o that_o covenant_n under_o disfavour_n or_o displeasure_n seem_v to_o i_o a_o contradiction_n we_o mean_v such_o a_o people_n as_o be_v in_o the_o covenaut_n of_o grace_n neg._n 1_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o god_n be_v displease_v or_o be_v angry_a we_o all_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n for_o god_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o passion_n as_o man_n be_v only_o through_o our_o weakness_n we_o do_v so_o think_v and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n so_o speak_v 2_o even_o when_o we_o be_v chasten_v of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o his_o love_n and_o not_o of_o his_o displeasure_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v whons_n the_o lord_n love_v he_o chaster_v the_o philosopher_n will_v not_o beat_v his_o servant_n in_o anger_n and_o if_o it_o be_v condemn_v in_o man_n why_o shall_v it_o be_v affirm_v of_o god_n father_n and_o master_n for_o a_o few_o day_n chasten_v we_o after_o their_o own_o pleasure_n but_o he_o for_o our_o profit_n that_o we_o may_v be_v partaker_n of_o his_o holiness_n 3_o it_o be_v most_o peremptory_o to_o be_v affirm_v that_o god_n hate_v sin_n in_o whosoever_o it_o be_v even_o in_o his_o own_o son_n though_o it_o be_v not_o he_o but_o we_o and_o therefore_o also_o he_o must_v needs_o hate_v it_o in_o his_o own_o child_n 4_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o the_o child_n of_o god_n live_v off_o from_o christ_n and_o walk_v unworthy_a of_o the_o gospel_n so_o far_o forth_o they_o lie_v under_o sense_n of_o wrath_n in_o so_o much_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o scourge_v every_o son_n he_o love_v it_o be_v not_o the_o will_n of_o god_n nay_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v peace_n in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n than_o the_o devil_n and_o wicked_a man_n may_v have_v peace_n from_o who_o the_o way_n of_o peace_n be_v hide_v 5_o there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n the_o one_o of_o sin_n and_o so_o of_o death_n and_o sorrow_v even_o when_o the_o saint_n walk_v in_o that_o way_n they_o have_v no_o more_o peace_n nay_o for_o the_o present_v not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o wicked_a have_v and_o they_o have_v no_o true_a peace_n at_o all_o 2_o the_o way_n of_o wisdom_n prov._n 3.17_o who_o way_n be_v way_n of_o pleasantness_n and_o all_o her_o path_n be_v peace_n who_o so_o walk_v in_o that_o way_n and_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o he_o walk_v in_o that_o way_n shall_v never_o want_v peace_n 6_o so_o there_o be_v two_o way_n by_o which_o god_n have_v make_v himself_o know_v in_o the_o scripture_n and_o be_v know_v at_o this_o day_n among_o man_n the_o first_o be_v by_o the_o law_n only_o so_o the_o natural_a man_n know_v god_n and_o no_o otherwise_o so_o that_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o he_o keep_v the_o law_n so_o far_o forth_o he_o apprehend_v he_o please_v god_n i.e._n as_o he_o look_v upon_o he_o in_o the_o law_n and_o again_o so_o far_o as_o he_o come_v short_a of_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n so_o far_o he_o apprehend_v he_o displease_v god_n as_o he_o be_v know_v in_o the_o law_n i.e._n out_o of_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v so_o as_o he_o apprehend_v 2_o god_n have_v make_v know_v himself_o to_o we_o in_o christ_n and_o so_o he_o be_v well_o please_v with_o we_o in_o he_o mat._n 3.17_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d in_o who_o i_o amwell_v please_v to_o this_o all_o the_o scripture_n bear_v witness_v who_o he_o love_v he_o love_v unto_o the_o end_n for_o he_o love_v they_o for_o christ_n sake_n and_o not_o for_o their_o own_o and_o love_v they_o as_o much_o at_o one_o time_n as_o at_o another_o now_o christ_n for_o who_o sake_n god_n love_v we_o be_v yesterday_o

to_o apply_v christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n and_o god_n love_v to_o we_o in_o he_o at_o such_o a_o time_n so_o far_o as_o natural_a we_o judge_v ourselves_o by_o the_o law_n but_o so_o far_o
