working_n of_o the_o law_n first_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o i_o will_v lay_v a_o necessity_n upon_o such_o a_o precedency_n of_o a_o legal_a work_n before_o i_o do_v come_v to_o christ_n than_o i_o be_o too_o legal_a 7._o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n man_n do_v then_o upon_o any_o great_a discovery_n of_o god_n fly_v from_o god_n as_o when_o god_n give_v out_o the_o law_n they_o flee_v from_o god_n and_o when_o christ_n do_v a_o great_a work_n before_o peter_n lord_n say_v he_o depart_v from_o i_o for_o i_o be_o a_o sinful_a man_n but_o now_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o great_a the_o discovery_n be_v the_o more_o a_o gospel_n spirit_n do_v draw_v near_o to_o god_n oh_o it_o be_v good_a for_o i_o to_o be_v here_o say_v he_o 8._o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v a_o time_n of_o the_o letter_n and_o therefore_o if_o a_o man_n of_o a_o legal_a spirit_n can_v but_o perform_v his_o duty_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o commandment_n he_o be_v satisfy_v but_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v the_o time_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o be_v not_o minister_n of_o the_o letter_n but_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o a_o gospel_n spirit_n though_o he_o can_v perform_v his_o duty_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o command_n yet_o if_o he_o do_v attain_v the_o spirit_n in_o it_o he_o be_v unsatisfied_a 9_o to_o say_v no_o more_o in_o it_o but_o this_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n god_n speak_v by_o vision_n and_o dream_n and_o sign_n but_o now_o in_o these_o latter_a day_n he_o have_v speak_v by_o his_o son_n and_o we_o have_v a_o more_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n whereunto_o we_o do_v well_o that_o we_o take_v heed_n so_o that_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n and_o what_o the_o difference_n be_v between_o the_o way_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n between_o a_o old_a testament_n and_o a_o new_a testament_n spirit_n f●urthly_o but_o then_o 4_o suppose_v now_o that_o i_o have_v recourse_n too_o much_o to_o m●ses_n in_o these_o gospel_n time_n and_o not_o enough_o unto_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n suppose_v i_o be_v legal_a in_o these_o gospel_n time_n be_v there_o any_o great_a danger_n in_o it_o much_o very_o much_o and_o i_o pray_v consider_v it_o that_o we_o may_v be_v all_o find_v upon_o gospel_n ground_n in_o this_o gospel_n day_n danger_n i_o say_v much_o for_o i._o the_o more_o legal_a you_o be_v in_o gospel_n time_n the_o more_o sinful_a you_o will_v be_v and_o the_o less_o able_a for_o to_o live_v unto_o god_n 1._o the_o more_o sinful_a you_o will_v be_v for_o say_v the_o apostle_n let_v not_o sin_n reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n for_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n and_o the_o less_o able_a you_o will_v be_v to_o live_v unto_o god_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n gal._n 2.19_o i_o through_o the_o law_n be_o dead_a to_o the_o law_n that_o i_o

of_o believe_v some_o think_v oh_o it_o be_v presumption_n to_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o to_o believe_v and_o lay_v hold_v on_o christ_n but_o friend_n it_o be_v no_o presumption_n for_o any_o man_n
