the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n consist_v in_o this_o word_n that_o we_o love_v our_o neighbour_n not_o that_o god_n ought_v in_o the_o mean_a while_n to_o be_v forget_v as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o

now_o than_o we_o know_v that_o he_o which_o love_v his_o neighbour_n seek_v not_o his_o own_o nor_o be_v give_v to_o himself_o that_o therefore_o be_v a_o true_a &_o certain_a proof_n that_o we_o be_v desirous_a to_o obey_v god_n &_o to_o rule_v our_o life_n according_a to_o his_o word_n also_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n begin_v at_o the_o same_o point_n when_o he_o intend_v to_o show_v brief_o what_o his_o doctrine_n be_v it_o be_v say_v he_o a_o learning_n to_o renounce_v or_o forsake_v ourselves_o for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o follow_v our_o own_o trace_n we_o must_v needs_o go_v

such_o as_o be_v so_o fiery_a at_o the_o first_o dash_n that_o reason_n can_v neither_o appease_v they_o nor_o stay_v they_o therefore_o when_o man_n be_v so_o hot_a and_o fling_v themselves_o at_o all_o adventure_n thing_n must_v be_v allege_v agreeable_a to_o their_o nature_n to_o make_v they_o ashamed_a that_o they_o may_v be_v draw_v too_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n s._n paul_n then_o mean_v here_o to_o bring_v we_o by_o little_a and_o little_a to_o the_o overcome_v of_o all_o our_o affection_n which_o be_v to_o far_o out_o of_o square_a too_o the_o end_n that_o whensoever_o we_o be_v provoke_v to_o hate_v any_o man_n or_o to_o be_v revenge_v of_o he_o we_o may_v consider_v thus_o with_o ourselves_o what_o will_v be_v the_o end_n of_o it_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v one_o of_o we_o consume_v another_o like_a dog_n and_o cat_n and_o when_o we_o have_v consider_v that_o we_o must_v proceed_v yet_o further_o which_o be_v that_o although_o our_o hatred_n may_v advantage_n we_o never_o so_o much_o although_o we_o may_v always_o have_v the_o upper_a hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n and_o although_o we_o can_v bring_v all_o our_o practice_n and_o attempt_n to_o effect_v i_o say_v although_o we_o may_v have_v advantage_n by_o gyve_v head_n to_o our_o passion_n yet_o be_v it_o but_o a_o provoke_a of_o god_n wrath_n see_v we_o can_v not_o yield_v so_o far_o unto_o he_o as_o to_o love_v those_o that_o be_v unworthy_a sith_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o let_v we_o be_v afraid_a &_o submit_v ourselves_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n let_v we_o fight_v so_o much_o the_o more_o manful_o till_o god_n have_v get_v the_o maysterie_n and_o we_o renounce_v ourselves_o as_o i_o say_v forsake_v all_o our_o own_o nature_n too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v keep_v the_o sacred_a unity_n which_o he_o do_v set_v among_o we_o when_o it_o please_v he_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n now_o hereupon_o saint_n paul_n add_v that_o if_o we_o mind_n to_o restrain_v the_o lust_n of_o our_o flesh_n from_o reign_v in_o we_o we_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n furthermore_o the_o battle_n be_v right_a hard_a so_o that_o we_o do_v not_o what_o we_o will_v do_v but_o although_o god_n have_v reform_v we_o and_o touch_v we_o to_o the_o quick_a so_o as_o we_o will_v fain_o please_v he_o in_o all_o point_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o shall_v not_o yet_o atteyne_v too_o perfection_n because_o our_o own_o nature_n will_v always_o lead_v we_o untoo_o evil_n but_o before_o we_o go_v any_o further_a we_o must_v mark_v that_o by_o the_o word_n flesh_n saint_n paul_n mean_v all_o that_o be_v in_o man_n and_o 〈◊〉_d what_o ever_o we_o bring_v with_o we_o by_o our_o birth_n according_a also_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n declare_v sufficient_o in_o the_o three_o of_o john_n 6_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o flesh_n say_v he_o be_v flesh_n by_o the_o word_n spirit_n he_o mean_v not_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n but_o the_o grace_n which_o god_n give_v we_o when_o he_o bring_v we_o back_o to_o his_o obedience_n &_o correct_v our_o vice_n &_o all_o that_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o word_n and_o the_o term_n of_o man_n by_o the_o name_n of_o flesh_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v in_o way_n of_o contempt_n but_o yet_o in_o this_o text_n it_o be_v a_o mark_n of_o vice_n and_o corruption_n sometime_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o flesh_n it_o say_v 39_o very_o well_o what_o else_o be_v man_n but_o flesh_n that_o be_v too_o say_v but_o rottenness_n ageine_n all_o flesh_n be_v grass_n and_o ageine_n what_o be_v the_o egyptian_n 6._o they_o be_v flesh_n and_o not_o spirit_n you_o see_v then_o that_o under_o this_o word_n flesh_n man_n be_v teach_v their_o own_o frailty_n and_o do_v to_o understand_v that_o they_o be_v but_o earth_n and_o dust_n 3_o worm_n and_o worm_n meat_n and_o this_o serve_v first_o of_o all_o to_o humble_v they_o but_o when_o flesh_n be_v match_v ageyn_v spirit_n then_o be_v not_o

there_o be_v no_o taste_n at_o all_o in_o they_o to_o discern_v aright_o but_o they_o be_v utter_o pervert_v in_o all_o their_o lust_n you_o see_v then_o that_o whereas_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n

it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o we_o but_o stark_o corruption_n &_o that_o the_o same_o be_v as_o a_o enmity_n against_o god_n and_o separate_v we_o from_o his_o rightuousnesse_n true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o soul_n or_o mind_n be_v oftentimes_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o spirit_n for_o the_o word_n spirit_n or_o ghost_n betoken_v a_o invisible_a substance_n which_o can_v

that_o when_o we_o be_v once_o regenerate_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o have_v no_o more_o need_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n insomuch_o that_o they_o say_v we_o keep_v the_o

as_o also_o when_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o god_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v live_v perfect_o and_o undefiled_a before_o he_o it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o there_o can_v be_v find_v any_o such_o pureness_n in_o any_o man_n so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v in_o this_o world_n for_o all_o our_o thought_n do_v continual_o rebel_v against_o god_n yea_o

howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v we_o perceyve_v on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v already_o ridded_a we_o by_o faith_n out_o of_o the_o bondage_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o will_v maintain_v we_o against_o all_o assault_n if_o we_o fall_v to_o examination_n and_o every_o man_n try_v what_o be_v in_o himself_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o on_o the_o one_o

fain_o keep_v aloof_o from_o he_o insomuch_o that_o the_o faithful_a must_v needs_o feel_v both_o those_o two_o motion_n in_o themselves_o namely_o that_o when_o on_o the_o one_o side_n as_o saint_n peter_n cheer_v we_o the_o holy_a ghost_n counsel_v we_o too_o give_v our_o self_n to_o all_o holiness_n of_o life_n 1_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o feel_v ourselves_o to_o be_v pluck_v back_o by_o many_o wicked_a affection_n so_o as_o we_o can_v come_v near_o unto_o god_n as_o we_o fain_o will_v do_v and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o seven_o 19_o chapter_n too_o the_o roman_n sigh_v and_o confess_v that_o he_o be_v unhappy_a because_o he_o can_v do_v the_o good_a that_o he_o be_v desirous_a to_o do_v nor_o utter_o eschew_v the_o evil_a that_o he_o hate_v &_o abhor_v thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v concern_v the_o deliverance_n that_o be_v mention_v here_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o so_o

come_v which_o be_v when_o our_o lord_n god_n shall_v have_v thorough_o repair_v his_o image_n in_o us._n now_o by_o the_o way_n although_o the_o galathians_n be_v partly_o slip_v away_o and_o have_v give_v ear_n to_o the_o buzibody_n that_o have_v disguise_v the_o gospel_n and_o make_v such_o a_o mingle_v mangle_v of_o it_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v as_o good_a as_o overwhelm_v and_o bury_v yet_o notwithstanding_o s._n paul_n match_v they_o still_o with_o the_o faithful_a for_o who_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v offer_v according_a also_o as_o he_o place_v they_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n he_o speak_v not_o to_o the_o renegate_n that_o have_v forsake_v jesus_n christ_n true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o will_v anon_o show_v they_o their_o fault_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o mind_v not_o to_o exclude_v they_o utter_o from_o the_o hope_n of_o salvation_n for_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n for_o he_o to_o write_v to_o they_o if_o it_o be_v not_o to_o draw_v they_o back_o again_o and_o to_o win_v they_o and_o to_o bring_v they_o again_o into_o the_o good_a way_n forasmuch_o then_o as_o s._n paul_n labour_v to_o bring_v back_o the_o galathians_n into_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n as_o need_n be_v therefore_o he_o admit_v they_o still_o to_o the_o inestimable_a benefit_n that_o be_v purchase_v for_o we_o by_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o recken_v they_o still_o as_o separate_v from_o the_o world_n knit_v they_o to_o the_o fellowship_n of_o those_o who_o god_n accept_v and_o avow_v for_o his_o child_n and_o that_o be_v because_o there_o be_v yet_o some_o seed_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o they_o and_o although_o they_o be_v snarl_a in_o some_o error_n yet_o they_o have_v not_o utter_o forsake_v god_n nor_o go_v quite_o away_o from_o the_o gospel_n for_o that_o

will_v god_n reckon_v we_o as_o of_o his_o household_n for_o his_o word_n sake_n which_o be_v preach_v among_o us._n no_o doubt_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v to_o our_o sore_a damnation_n if_o god_n

we_o as_o his_o own_o for_o his_o word_n sake_n and_o we_o be_v call_v his_o church_n 25._o not_o for_o that_o we_o be_v worthy_a of_o that_o title_n but_o because_o that_o as_o the_o city_n of_o

saint_n paul_n use_v of_o such_o mildene_a 〈◊〉_d towards_o the_o galathians_n be_v not_o to_o foad_v they_o in_o their_o vice_n nor_o too_o soothe_v they_o up_o with_o fond_a flattery_n after_o the_o

then_o be_v the_o special_a reason_n why_o saint_n paul_n commune_v not_o with_o the_o apostle_n and_o true_o here_o he_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o it_o be_v in_o way_n of_o scorn_n term_v they_o

they_o and_o we_o ought_v too_o mark_v that_o well_o for_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o man_n sure_o they_o may_v well_o be_v call_v flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o we_o see_v they_o be_v call_v in_o the_o first_o of_o john_n 13_o you_o see_v then_o that_o man_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v nothing_o but_o corruption_n and_o for_o asmuch_o as_o they_o will_v fain_o presume_v to_o much_o of_o their_o

for_o we_o will_v hold_v altogether_o with_o the_o world_n if_o he_o shall_v let_v we_o alone_o too_o ourselves_o again_o in_o the_o sixteen_o of_o saint_n matthew_n it_o be_v say_v that_o fl●she_n

flesh_n and_o blood_n namely_o when_o they_o be_v compare_v untoo_o god_n to_o show_v that_o we_o have_v not_o aught_o but_o corruption_n in_o us._n true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o soul_n be_v immortal_a nevertheless_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o of_o we_o in_o way_n of_o contempt_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v void_a of_o presumption_n but_o as_o for_o the_o apostle_n they_o be_v

notwithstanding_o whensoever_o they_o be_v compare_v with_o god_n then_o must_v all_o that_o be_v of_o our_o own_o nature_n be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o term_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o why_o for_o else_o it_o shall_v come_v in_o question_n too_o know_v whether_o the_o apostle_n may_v by_o their_o own_o worthiness_n and_o excellency_n prejudice_n the_o gospel_n as_o the_o foresay_a

that_o fashion_n in_o their_o own_o affection_n they_o must_v needs_o serve_v the_o devil_n and_o become_v every_o day_n more_o beast_n than_o other_o but_o seek_v the_o remedy_n god_n call_v you_o

now_o saint_n paul_n have_v speak_v after_o that_o manner_n add_v for_o a_o large_a confyrmation_n of_o his_o matter_n that_o they_o which_o be_v circumcyze_v and_o which_o preach_v circumcizion_n keep_v not_o the_o law_n but_o only_o seek_v too_o glory_n in_o the_o flesh_n of_o those_o who_o they_o bring_v too_o that_o jewishe_a fashion_n in_o this_o text_n saint_n paul_n do_v ageine_n accuse_v his_o adversary_n of_o double_a deal_n and_o utter_a hypocrisy_n why_o so_o circumcision_n be_v the_o mark_n of_o the_o same_o thing_n before_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n whereof_o baptism_n be_v the_o mark_n untoo_o we_o at_o this_o day_n for_o the_o jew_n have_v record_n thereby_o that_o they_o be_v sanctify_v by_o god_n as_o his_o heritage_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o that_o mingle_a circumcizion_n with_o the_o gospel_n be_v utter_o of_o opinion_n that_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v give_v of_o god_n &_o that_o it_o be_v not_o at_o any_o time_n to_o be_v abolish_v here_o than_o you_o see_v that_o the_o covert_n which_o they_o take_v be_v that_o circumcizion_n serve_v for_o a_o sign_n of_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n but_o now_o s._n paul_n lay_v to_o their_o charge_n that_o they_o keep_v not_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v but_o mock_v god_n &_o man_n in_o make_v a_o

also_o we_o see_v our_o own_o infirmity_n 10_o and_o there_o god_n show_v we_o a_o angelical_a rightuousnesse_n how_o then_o be_v it_o possible_a for_o we_o to_o attain_v untoo_o it_o so_o then_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n law_n for_o a_o perfect_a and_o faultless_a obedience_n no_o man_n keep_v it_o in_o effect_n nevertheless_o the_o fayth●●●_n be_v guide_v and_o govern_v by_o god_n spirit_n do_v keep_v the_o law_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n that_o be_v give_v they_o there_o not_o that_o they_o run_v so_o swift_o as_o they_o shall_v do_v nor_o

that_o sign_n as_o a_o standard_n too_o make_v man_n believe_v that_o they_o be_v jew_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v hate_v nor_o persecute_v but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o keep_v not_o the_o whole_a law_n for_o they_o take_v leave_v to_o despize_v all_o that_o shall_v be_v match_v with_o circumcision_n for_o he_o that_o be_v circumcise_v aught_o also_o to_o do_v
