Tim. 6. 10. 5 It differeth in nature from the two last that went before Whereof one is bent against iniurie and wronge the other against falsitie and deceipt And this commeth not so farre as eyther of them both Lastlie adde herevnto that whiche I hould as a certaine grounde that the corruption both of nature desire is forbidden in euerie one For the Law of God and consequenthe euerie commandement thereof being spirituall Rom. 7. 14. according to the nature of him that gaue it Iohn 4 24. Heb 4. 12. 13. must needes reach to all the faculties and powers of the whole man yea and to his very nature So as in euery commandement the roote it selfe and stumpe of that sinne togither with all the braunches comming from it are there condemned Which seeing all men agree in dueties of the first table the same reason and proportion earieth it to those of the seconde also And that may further appeare by our Sauiour Christes interpretation of the seuenth commandement extending it to all kinde of lust Mat. 5. 28. So doeth the Apostle Iames the sixt commaundement setting it foorth by the three degrees thereof lusting eagerly affecting when the heart is wholy possessed with it and lastly fighting and warring Iames 4. 2. As for the saying of Paul Rom. 7. 7. I had not known lust except the Law had said Thou shalt not lust I take it vnder reformation of better iudgment to be meant not of any one Commandment in particuler but of the whole puritie that way which the Lawe of God thoroughout requireth And that aswell in the duties to God as to our brethren Which the Apostle soundly gathereth to bee commaunded in the Law because the Law is spirituall And this hee saith verse 9 came and was as it were a new commaundement vnto him when he vnderstood the whole Law to be spirituall and to reach to the lust and desire of the heart which in the darkenes of his pharisaisme hee had not learned Because this exposition of the tenth Commaundement doth vary from that which is generally receaued I haue opened my reasons the more at large Let the learned Iudge b Heb. 13. 5. 1. Tim. 6. 6. 8. Phil. 4. 11 12. c Rom. 12. 15. a Phil. 3. 9. Rom. 9. 30. 31 32. 10. 3 4 5 6. Gal. 3. 12. The first requiring righteousnesse from our selues or by our own works propounding life euerlasting if we doe it is called the Law or the couenant of workes Rom. 10. 5. Gal. 3. 12. The other sending vs to Christe and propounding life euerlasting through him if wee beleeue in him is called the couenant of grace Rom. 10. 4. Gal. 3. 13 14. Which is two fould according to the diuerse dispensation of the times before and since his comming The couenant of grace before his comming in the fleshe being thorough Christ to come was termed the old Testament Heb. 8. 13. and the publishing thereof the promise Acts 13. 32. Gal. 3. 17. 18. The same couenant since his comming beeing thorough Christ already come is termed the new Testament Ierem. 31. 31 32 33 34. and the publishing thereof the Gospell Acts 13. 32. Marc. 1. 1. The Lawe beeing impossible for vs in this our corrupt estate to performe Rom. 8 3. serueth not at all to iustifie Gal. 3. 10 11 21 22. But 1. to shewe and discouer sinne Rom. 3. 20. 7. 7. 2. Through the corruption of our nature to encrease sinne Rom. 7. 8 9 10 11. 3. To pronounce against vs iudgement and condemnation due vnto sinne Rom. 3 19. and thereby to driue vs vnto Christ Rom. 10. 4. Gal. 3. 22. 23 24. To the regenerate it further serueth 1. As a light to direct vs Psal 119 105. 2. As a prick to incite vs because of Gods commandment 3. To frame vs to humilitie seeing thereby how farre we are from fulfilling it The difference betweene the Lawe and the Gospell standeth in these three things 1. The Lawe offereth saluation vnder condition of perfect obedience that is to say if wee doe it the Gospell vnder condicion of faith that is to say if we beleeue Rom. 10. 5 6. 2. The Law commandeth only but giueth no power to performe it and therfore is called the dead letter written with inke and in tables of stone to be read and seene but hauing no life in it to change the heart which remaineth as stonie as before The Gospell not onely commandeth but giueth faith and newnesse of life And is therefore said to be written in our heartes and called the Spirit because it giueth the Spirit of Christ righteousnes through him 2. Cor. 3. 3 6 9. 3. The Lawe pronounceth nothing but iudgment and condemnation against vs commaunding things altogither impossible through our corruption and therefore terrefieth and amazeth the conscience in which respect it is called the ministerie of death and of condemnation 2. Cor. 3 7 9. The Gospell bringeth glad tydinges of peace and reconciliation and therfore quieteth and appeaseth the conscience Rom. 5. 1. for both parts of this latter difference see Rom. 10. 5 6 7 8. b Mat. 22. 30.

PETIT The HONOVR due to God Performed by Angells Sainctes in Heauen The Church vpon earth a Zach. 6. 8. Sanctification of his humane nature Righteousnes Blessednes Suffrings of God fall afterwards to his adioyntes of kingdome and honour so these beginne with Christ and regeneration through him the fruites whereof are Iustification and Sanctification which followe in their place As the Apostle agreeably herevnto reduceth all the benefits we haue by Christ to those three heades and that in the same order 1 Iohn 5. 8. There be three which heare record in earth The Spirite wherein we are regenerate water wherby we are washed and cleaned from our sinne And Blood purging and abolishing both the roote and the fruites of it Which is attributed to the blood of Christ Heb. 9. 14. 1 Iohn 1. 7 9. And that it is so to bee taken in this place not for expiation I gather by that the Apostle saith vers 6 This is hee that came by water and blood not by water only but water and blood That is to say not our
Iustifier onely which all men doe willinglie embrace but to sanctifie vs also which men will not so easily bee brought to yeeld vnto 4. Seeing it is plaine that in asking pardon of our sinnes and righteousnes in Christ which we do in the fifth petition Consequently we aske all the belssednes belonging to it One part whereof is this to haue all outward things as additaments and appendancies cast vnto vs so farre as God hath appointed thē for our good as our Sauiour Christes both speech and promise is Mat. 6. 33. and further then that we haue no warrant to desire them it seemeth not so likely that either our Sauiour Christ would rent these thinges asunder and transplant one from another or in so short a summe admit of repetition which must needes follow if being there included we aske them here by name And this also may serue to proue that no defect or may me cā iustly be imputed to this absolute forme of prayer though outward things come not within compasse of the fourth petition 5. The doubling of the article 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 sheweth it to be meant of no cōmon bread but a bread of some rare and singuler qualitie The like doubling of the article for emphasis sake you may see Math. 3. 17. Luke 15. 22 23. and in diuerse other places Lastly the worde 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which maketh all the doubt being neuer read but in this prayer onely and therefore of an vncerteyne signification I deriue form 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 with the best Interpreters as I make no doubt it must of necessitie be But not in that sence which I see them to doe Who expound it competent or sufficient for our nature that is for our sustenance and nourishment Of which signification of the worde 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 you shall hardly finde nay example as H. Stephen in his greeke Thesaurus noteth But in that sence which the Scripture vseth it Luc. 15. 12 13. and neuer otherwise as it signifieth wealth and substance from whence I take to bee deriued two wordes of neere affinitie 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 here and 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Tit. 2. 14. One noting that which as the remayn and ouerplus of our substance we lay vp in store and keepe for a Iewell the other that which excelleth all wealth and substance Which among many other is one signification of the praeposition 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Rom. 9. 5.

I reioyce in the way of thy testimonies as aboue all substance And it seemeth vnto mee that our Sauiour Christ doth herein allude to that saying of Salomon Cantie 8. 11. If a man would giue all the substance of his house for this loue of Iesus Christ to whom I am euen now ascending out of the wildernes of this world to ioyne and vnite my selfe by faith he should utterly be despised Yet the other interpretation which the most learned best diuines of our time do follow carrieth a sound a Godly sence against which no exception can be taken And therefore in such cases men are not to striue Resurrection Calling Knowledge Faculties Ministeries Light of the Spirite Faith a Math. 6. 11. b Luc. 11. 3.
