those_o that_o turn_v from_o iniquity_n in_o jacob_n 2._o as_o again_o it_o be_v write_v walk_v before_o i_o and_o be_v thou_o upright_o and_o i_o will_v make_v my_o covenant_n between_o i_o and_o thou_o as_o who_o say_v one_o condition_n and_o part_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v our_o upright_a and_o good_a profession_n 4._o so_o likewise_o in_o jeremie_n and_o exodus_fw-la 19_o the_o promise_n of_o obedience_n in_o the_o people_n be_v set_v down_o as_o one_o part_n of_o the_o covenant_n obey_v my_o voice_n and_o do_v according_a to_o all_o these_o thing_n which_o i_o command_v you_o so_o shall_v you_o be_v my_o people_n and_o i_o will_v be_v your_o god_n or_o else_o curse_v be_v the_o man_n that_o obey_v not_o the_o word_n of_o this_o covenant_n for_o on_o this_o condition_n will_v the_o lord_n receive_v we_o 18_o as_o paul_n reason_v if_o we_o come_v out_o from_o among_o the_o wicked_a 11._o and_o separate_v ourselves_o ●_o then_o will_v i_o be_v a_o father_n unto_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v be_v my_o son_n and_o daughter_n say_v the_o lord_n almighty_a thus_o shall_v master_n cartwright_n have_v confer_v place_n with_o place_n and_o have_v know_v that_o the_o word_n be_v no_o covenant_n where_o the_o practice_n thereof_o be_v reject_v and_o tread_v under_o foot_n neither_o can_v man_n say_v they_o have_v the_o covenant_n of_o the_o spirit_n when_o open_a and_o gross_a

be_v lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o he_o show_v that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o condemnation_n and_o not_o in_o christ_n jesus_n if_o they_o walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o not_o after_o the_o spirit_n for_o there_o be_v not_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o spirit_n where_o we_o be_v not_o turn_v from_o iniquity_n as_o isaiah_n himself_o witness_v 10._o and_o let_v zecharie_n interpret_v isaiah_n who_o show_v what_o spirit_n god_n will_v pour_v upon_o his_o house_n and_o people_n namely_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o compassion_n unto_o repentance_n and_o mourning_n for_o their_o sin_n 20._o likewise_o ezechiel_n do_v give_v the_o proof_n and_o trial_n of_o that_o new_a spirit_n and_o new_a heart_n which_o god_n will_v put_v in_o his_o people_n namely_o this_o that_o they_o shall_v walk_v in_o his_o statute_n and_o keep_v his_o judgement_n and_o execute_v they_o and_o so_o do_v they_o shall_v be_v his_o people_n and_o he_o will_v be_v their_o god_n wherefore_o let_v not_o master_n cartwright_n account_v so_o much_o of_o the_o word_n in_o their_o mouth_n 14._o except_o as_o it_o be_v write_v in_o deut._n it_o be_v in_o their_o mouth_n and_o in_o their_o heart_n for_o to_o do_v it_o otherwise_o christ_n will_v pronounce_v of_o they_o that_o in_o vain_a they_o worship_v the_o lord_n 8._o and_o so_o be_v they_o false_a worshipper_n for_o god_n be_v near_o in_o their_o mouth_n and_o far_o from_o their_o reign_v 2._o they_o draw_v near_o unto_o god_n with_o their_o mouth_n and_o honour_n he_o with_o their_o lip_n but_o their_o heart_n be_v far_o off_o from_o he_o sure_o such_o man_n be_v not_o those_o burn_a lamp_n neither_o the_o golden_a candlestick_n he_o speak_v of_o but_o rather_o as_o those_o that_o will_v seek_v i_o daily_o say_v the_o lord_n 13._o even_o as_o a_o nation_n that_o do_v righteous_o 2._o and_o have_v not_o forsake_v the_o statute_n of_o their_o god_n they_o ask_v of_o i_o ordinance_n of_o justice_n they_o will_v draw_v near_o unto_o i_o 20._o yet_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n the_o lord_n witness_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a separation_n between_o he_o and_o they_o so_o that_o he_o be_v to_o make_v a_o new_a covenant_n with_o they_o and_o they_o be_v to_o turn_v from_o their_o former_a iniquity_n or_o else_o they_o can_v not_o be_v his_o people_n and_o church_n and_o therefore_o when_o christ_n appoint_v the_o apostle_n to_o plant_v church_n throughout_o the_o world_n 20_o he_o appoint_v they_o not_o to_o talk_v of_o and_o profess_v the_o word_n in_o their_o mouth_n only_o but_o he_o give_v in_o charge_n these_o three_o thing_n as_o be_v the_o chief_a mark_n of_o a_o plant_v church_n namely_o preach_v the_o word_n ministration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n &_o reformation_n of_o life_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a thing_n of_o all_o to_o set_v forth_o his_o church_n &_o kingdom_n for_o he_o command_v to_o preach_v and_o baptize_v &_o because_o preach_v &_o baptise_v be_v nothing_o without_o amendment_n of_o life_n he_o add_v these_o word_n teach_v they_o to_o observe_v &_o do_v all_o thing_n whatsoever_o i_o have_v command_v you_o therefore_o as_o appear_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n 2._o be_v neither_o the_o church_n nor_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o church_n establish_v among_o any_o 8._o but_o where_o their_o good_a &_o godly_a profession_n be_v show_v 18._o and_o the_o contrary_n refuse_v i_o know_v m._n c._n will_v gainsay_v that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v hypocrite_n in_o every_o church_n &_o sometime_o also_o open_a breach_n of_o god_n commandment_n 11._o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o but_o yet_o if_o any_o make_v a_o open_a and_o gross_a breach_n than_o paul_n have_v write_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o company_n not_o together_o with_o such_o for_o if_o any_o say_v he_o that_o be_v call_v a_o brother_n be_v a_o fornicator_n or_o covetous_a or_o a_o idolater_n or_o a_o railor_n or_o a_o

partake_v with_o they_o in_o the_o feast_n of_o charity_n be_v forbid_v which_o distinction_n and_o shift_n they_o allege_v out_o of_o caluin_n but_o who_o dare_v say_v that_o the_o godly_a wife_n may_v not_o eat_v common_a bread_n with_o her_o excommunicate_a husband_n or_o the_o godly_a child_n with_o their_o wicked_a parent_n or_o servant_n with_o their_o master_n for_o otherwise_o all_o service_n ministry_n &_o communion_n in_o a_o common_a wealth_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v and_o so_o as_o paul_n reason_v the_o godly_a shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o live_v in_o the_o world_n who_o also_o dare_v say_v that_o when_o the_o church_n hold_v their_o feast_n of_o charity_n they_o may_v forbid_v wicked_a person_n to_o partake_v with_o they_o in_o the_o feast_n and_o yet_o suffer_v they_o to_o partake_v in_o the_o lordes-table_n nay_o they_o keep_v their_o feast_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n together_o and_o hereupon_o paul_n give_v this_o distinction_n that_o they_o shall_v suffer_v none_o but_o brother_n to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o the_o holy_a feast_n or_o in_o the_o assembly_n which_o be_v for_o ministration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n but_o if_o we_o will_v not_o eat_v and_o drink_v with_o sinner_n in_o the_o world_n we_o must_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n wherefore_o there_o be_v a_o eat_n with_o wretch_n in_o the_o world_n or_o in_o worldly_a meeting_n and_o feast_n which_o be_v forbid_v in_o the_o church_n meeting_n as_o if_o a_o brother_n be_v separate_a and_o fall_v away_o shall_v in_o a_o inn_n or_o vitail_v house_n sit_v down_o at_o the_o table_n to_o eat_v after_o we_o and_o other_o be_v set_v it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o rise_v from_o the_o table_n because_o of_o he_o yea_o it_o be_v both_o against_o common_a charity_n and_o humanity_n and_o also_o against_o the_o peace_n &_o communion_n of_o a_o common_a wealth_n but_o of_o this_o matter_n it_o follow_v to_o speak_v afterwards_o we_o haste_v one_o to_o other_o proof_n an_o other_o proof_n be_v as_o though_o it_o be_v grant_v he_o that_o where_o a_o preach_a minister_n be_v there_o be_v a_o church_n nay_o we_o know_v that_o assembly_n of_o papist_n have_v preach_v minister_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o though_o they_o be_v protestant_n which_v have_v a_o preacher_n over_o they_o yet_o if_o he_o for_o his_o wickedness_n cease_v to_o be_v a_o brother_n and_o they_o also_o for_o their_o wickedness_n be_v no_o brethren_n the_o preach_a minister_n can_v not_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v a_o church_n of_o god_n this_o be_v manifest_v before_o and_o shall_v partly_o also_o afterward_o be_v speak_v of_o wherefore_o i_o let_v it_o pass_v as_o for_o that_o he_o say_v of_o some_o knowledge_n receive_v by_o a_o dumb_a ministry_n and_o of_o faith_n receive_v by_o some_o further_a ministry_n it_o be_v much_o like_o the_o same_o trifle_a proof_n he_o use_v before_o and_o be_v answer_v already_o for_o we_o say_v that_o the_o inward_a faith_n will_v not_o justify_v
his_o eye_n he_o may_v well_o perceive_v they_o not_o only_o to_o be_v ungodly_a but_o altogether_o childish_a &_o unlearned_a now_o we_o come_v to_o answer_v other_o matter_n which_o fall_v out_o of_o the_o former_a proof_n as_o that_o he_o say_v the_o scribe_n be_v altogether_o deceive_v in_o the_o messiah_n he_o may_v rather_o say_v they_o be_v ignorant_a in_o some_o mystery_n of_o the_o messiah_n than_o all_o together_o deceive_v and_o so_o paul_n say_v of_o they_o that_o have_v they_o know_v 8._o they_o will_v not_o have_v crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o gloríe_n and_o peter_n also_o say_v that_o the_o people_n do_v it_o of_o ignorance_n 17._o as_o also_o do_v their_o governor_n yea_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o be_v a_o long_a time_n ignorant_a in_o some_o mystery_n of_o the_o messiah_n and_o christ_n testify_v that_o many_o prophet_n and_o righteous_a man_n desire_v to_o see_v and_o hear_v those_o thing_n which_o the_o apostle_n see_v and_o hear_v 17._o but_o do_v not_o see_v nor_o hear_v they_o 24._o yea_o say_v peter_n 12._o the_o angel_n desire_v to_o behold_v these_o thing_n concern_v the_o sussering_a and_o glory_n of_o christ_n 16._o and_o therefore_o paul_n call_v this_o a_o great_a mystery_n that_o god_n shall_v be_v manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n justify_v in_o the_o spirit_n see_v of_o angel_n preach_v unto_o the_o gentile_n believe_v on_o in_o the_o world_n and_o receive_v up_o in_o glory_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n know_v that_o the_o messiah_n shall_v come_v 4●_n that_o he_o be_v the_o holy_a one_o &_o anoint_v of_o god_n 25._o as_o appear_v by_o their_o answer_n to_o christ._n the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n know_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o anoint_a prophet_n and_o tell_v they_o all_o thing_n all_o the_o priest_n and_o

prophecy_n that_o be_v of_o he_o that_o be_v write_v in_o daniel_n 14._o in_o micah_n 7._o in_o isaiah_n etc._n in_o jeremie_n and_o the_o rest_n 15._o both_o they_o and_o the_o people_n can_v ready_o rehearse_v such_o prophecy_n at_o their_o finger_n end_n 34._o as_o where_o he_o shall_v be_v bear_v who_o son_n he_o be_v what_o be_v his_o office_n what_o great_a work_v he_o shall_v do_v what_o salvation_n he_o shall_v work_v to_o his_o people_n what_o suffering_n he_o shall_v endure_v and_o what_o shall_v be_v his_o glory_n but_o master_n cartwright_n say_v they_o know_v not_o that_o jesus_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n neither_o how_o the_o godhead_n and_o manhood_n shall_v be_v together_o as_o in_o one_o i_o answer_v that_o no_o more_o do_v the_o apostle_n for_o a_o time_n neither_o can_v any_o man_n search_v this_o mystery_n to_o the_o depth_n for_o thomas_n and_o philippe_n know_v not_o 8._o as_o we_o may_v read_v in_o john_n how_o christ_n shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n to_o his_o father_n and_o come_v again_o that_o the_o father_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o son_n and_o the_o son_n in_o the_o father_n peter_n also_o and_o the_o rest_n 17._o be_v ignorant_a in_o such_o mystery_n as_o appear_v in_o other_o place_n 37._o yea_o they_o dream_v of_o a_o worldly_a kingdom_n and_o a_o worldly_a deliverauce_n 21._o which_o shall_v be_v by_o christ_n 16._o as_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o act_n and_o in_o luke_n wherefore_o though_o they_o believe_v not_o that_o that_o jesus_n which_o be_v then_o come_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n yet_o they_o believe_v and_o know_v the_o prophecy_n namely_o that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v call_v immanuel_n that_o be_v god_n with_o us._n again_o they_o know_v another_o prophecy_n of_o isaiah_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v call_v by_o name_n wonderful_a ●4_n counsellor_n ●he_v mighty_a god_n etc._n etc._n that_o he_o shall_v sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n of_o david_n 6._o and_o upon_o his_o kingdom_n and_o

be_v ignorant_a that_o the_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n they_o know_v also_o that_o they_o be_v to_o trust_v in_o the_o son_n as_o it_o be_v write_v thou_o be_v my_o son_n this_o day_n

so_o they_o well_o know_v that_o as_o his_o wrath_n be_v destruction_n so_o to_o trust_v in_o he_o be_v blessing_n and_o salution_n stherefore_o it_o be_v not_o true_o say_v that_o they_o be_v altogether_o deceive_v in_o the_o messiah_n rather_o it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o be_v ignorant_a but_o in_o these_o two_o point_n first_o 51._o how_o that_o particular_a man_n be_v so_o poor_a

so_o then_o so_o long_o as_o they_o hold_v the_o general_a faith_n and_o belief_n concern_v the_o messiah_n and_o be_v ignorant_a whether_o that_o particular_a man_n be_v the_o messiah_n i_o say_v this_o ignorance_n for_o the_o time_n be_v no_o open_a overthrow_n of_o any_o ground_n of_o religion_n for_o the_o apostle_n be_v command_v not_o to_o preach_v christ_n particular_o to_o be_v the_o

neither_o receive_v the_o promise_n as_o say_v the_o text_n but_o see_v they_o a_o far_o off_o and_o believe_v they_o and_o receive_v they_o thankful_o whereas_o the_o word_n be_v that_o they_o

yet_o the_o faithful_a do_v join_v with_o they_o it_o be_v manifest_a to_o the_o contrary_n 40._o for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n command_v they_o to_o save_v themselves_o from_o that_o froward_a
