be_v a_o live_a man_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o life_n live_v a_o spiritual_a life_n and_o this_o you_o have_v most_o express_o in_o that_o 6._o chap._n of_o john_n at_o the_o 40._o vers_fw-la this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o he_o that_o send_v i_o that_o every_o one_o which_o see_v the_o son_n and_o believe_v on_o he_o may_v have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o at_o

the_o 47._o vers_fw-la very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o i_o have_v everlasting_a life_n it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o shall_v have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o he_o have_v

unto_o you_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o i_o have_v everlasting_a life_n but_o how_o can_v this_o be_v nay_o how_o shall_v it_o be_v otherwise_o for_o a_o man_n life_n be_v as_o his_o meat_n be_v and_o say_v our_o saviour_n i_o be_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n at_o the_o 48._o vers_fw-la then_o at_o the_o 54._o vers_fw-la whesoever_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a

full_a of_o it_o here_o be_v a_o cloud_n of_o winess_n i_o say_v therefore_o that_o every_o godly_a gracious_a man_n be_v a_o live_a man_n and_o live_v another_o life_n from_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world_n a_o spiritual_a life_n and_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o spiritual_a life_n for_o the_o open_n of_o this_o truth_n unto_o you_o we_o must_v first_o of_o all_o inquire_v what_o this_o spiritual_a life_n be_v take_v therefore_o this_o description_n of_o it_o it_o be_v that_o supernatural_a perfection_n of_o soul_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v unite_v unto_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n be_v able_a to_o act_v move_v and_o work_v towards_o god_n as_o his_o utmost_a end_n first_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o supernatural_a perfection_n there_o be_v some_o perfection_n in_o every_o life_n life_n be_v the_o great_a good_a and_o perfection_n death_n be_v the_o great_a evil_n therefore_o when_o the_o lord_n theratn_v adam_n to_o punish_v he_o for_o eat_v the_o forbidden-fruit_n he_o say_v the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o 2._o gen._n 2._o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n death_n be_v the_o great_a evil_n and_o so_o life_n be_v the_o great_a good_a and_o perfection_n and_o this_o the_o devil_n know_v full_a well_o 2.4_o joh_n 2.4_o when_o he_o say_v skin_n for_o skin_n and_o all_o that_o a_o man_n have_v will_v he_o give_v for_o his_o life_n so_o that_o life_n be_v a_o perfection_n but_o i_o say_v this_o spiritual_a life_n it_o be_v the_o supernatural_a perfection_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o 4._o chapter_n of_o the_o ephesian_n and_o the_o 18_o verse_n this_o life_n of_o the_o saint_n the_o very_a life_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v call_v the_o life_n of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o supernatural_a perfection_n of_o soul_n therefore_o second_o as_o it_o be_v a_o supernatural_a perfection_n of_o soul_n so_o it_o rise_v from_o our_o union_n with_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n a_o man_n be_v unite_v to_o god_n by_o faith_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n and_o as_o our_o outward_a life_n do_v arise_v from_o the_o union_n between_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o body_n and_o though_o the_o body_n be_v never_o so_o fair_a or_o full_a yet_o if_o it_o be_v not_o unite_v to_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v but_o a_o dead_a carcase_n so_o our_o spiritual_a life_n it_o do_v arise_v from_o our_o union_n with_o christ_n and_o though_o a_o man_n have_v never_o so_o many_o moral_a virtue_n and_o his_o conversation_n be_v never_o so_o fair_a yet_o if_o not_o unite_v to_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n he_o be_v but_o a_o dead_a man_n spiritual_o a_o dead_a man_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n here_o in_o the_o text_n nevertheless_o i_o live_v yet_o not_o i_o but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o three_o as_o it_o arise_v from_o our_o union_n with_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n so_o i_o say_v it_o be_v that_o supernatural_a i_o perfection_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v able_a to_o act_v and_o move_v and_o work_v towards_o god_n as_o his_o utmost_a and_o last_o end_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o former_a verse_n i_o through_o the_o law_n be_o dead_a unto_o the_o law_n that_o i_o may_v live_v to_o god_n to_o god_n as_o my_o last_o and_o my_o utmost_a end_n and_o when_o a_o man_n be_v able_a to_o act_v and_o move_v and_o work_v towards_o god_n as_o his_o last_o and_o utmost_a end_n than_o he_o be_v say_v to_o live_v spiritual_o so_o that_o then_o you_o have_v this_o description_n of_o our_o spiritual_a life_n i_o repeat_v it_o again_o it_o be_v that_o supernatural_a perfection_n of_o soul_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v unite_v unto_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n be_v able_a to_o act_v and_o move_v and_o work_v towards_o god_n as_o his_o utmost_a end_n quest_n 2_o second_o whereby_o may_v it_o appear_v that_o every_o godly_a gracious_a man_n be_v thus_o a_o live_a man_n make_v partaker_n of_o this_o spiritual_a life_n so_o as_o to_o he_o able_a to_o act_v and_o move_v and_o work_v towards_o god_n as_o his_o utmost_a end_n answ_n i_o will_v take_v but_o the_o three_o ordinary_a life_n that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n the_o vegetative_a life_n the_o life_n of_o plant_n and_o herb_n the_o sensitive_a life_n the_o life_n of_o beast_n and_o the_o rational_a life_n the_o life_n of_o man._n and_o i_o will_v show_v you_o that_o the_o essential_a property_n of_o all_o these_o life_n be_v in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n in_o the_o godly_a and_o then_o the_o argument_n will_v lie_v thus_o if_o the_o essential_a property_n of_o all_o these_o life_n be_v in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n in_o every_o godly_a man_n then_o certain_o every_o godly_a gracious_a man_n be_v a_o live_a man_n and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o life_n live_v another_o life_n from_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world_n first_o take_v the_o life_n of_o plant_n and_o herb_n or_o of_o flower_n and_o what_o be_v the_o essential_a property_n of_o
by_o this_o justification_n i_o mean_v that_o act_n of_o god_n grace_n whereby_o through_o the_o imputation_n of_o our_o sin_n to_o christ_n and_o christ_n righteousness_n unto_o we_o god_n the_o father_n do_v pronounce_v we_o righteous_a in_o his_o sight_n this_o be_v justification_n and_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o righteousness_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n only_o as_o the_o material_a and_o meritorious_a cause_n it_o be_v do_v only_o by_o faith_n as_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n so_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o yet_o not_o so_o as_o that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n which_o have_v no_o work_n for_o all_o justify_v faith_n be_v full_a of_o work_n but_o these_o work_n do_v not_o come_v into_o our_o justification_n as_o now_o a_o man_n servant_n they_o have_v he_o to_o bed_n servant_n have_v their_o master_n and_o mistress_n to_o bed_n tend_v upon_o they_o to_o bed_n but_o they_o do_v not_o go_v into_o the_o bed_n with_o they_o they_o be_v with_o they_o again_o in_o the_o morning_n they_o bring_v they_o water_n and_o necessary_a thing_n but_o they_o do_v not_o come_v to_o bed_v to_o they_o now_o say_v luther_n justification_n be_v that_o bed_n where_o christ_n and_o a_o believe_v soul_n lie_v &_o though_o good_a work_n duty_n and_o prayer_n tend_v upon_o christ_n and_o where_o ever_o there_o be_v faith_n there_o be_v these_o yet_o this_o bed_n of_o justification_n be_v keep_v free_a and_o entire_a and_o only_o for_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o they_o come_v not_o to_o bed_v they_o come_v not_o into_o this_o work_n or_o if_o you_o will_v thus_o you_o know_v that_o when_o a_o israelite_n be_v sting_v in_o the_o wilderness_n by_o a_o fiery_a bite_a serpent_n he_o be_v then_o to_o look_v upon_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n and_o by_o the_o behold_n of_o the_o brasen-serpent_n he_o be_v cure_v the_o look_v of_o his_o eye_n cure_v he_o he_o have_v other_o member_n there_o

of_o the_o eye_n that_o do_v cure_v the_o person_n and_o so_o though_o work_n do_v accompany_v faith_n and_o there_o be_v no_o save_v justify_v faith_n but_o work_v accompany_v it_o yet_o it_o be_v only_o the_o behold_n of_o this_o brasen-serpent_n by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n that_o do_v cure_v the_o soul_n as_o to_o the_o point_n of_o justification_n when_o abraham_n go_v up_o into_o the_o

and_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o justification_n thereby_o be_v no_o friend_n but_o a_o real_a enemy_n unto_o all_o our_o holiness_n and_o the_o power_n of_o godliness_n what_o great_a enemy_n have_v

between_o a_o man_n deny_v of_o his_o sinful_a and_o of_o his_o religious_a self_n when_o a_o man_n do_v deny_v his_o sinful_a self_n for_o christ_n then_o he_o be_v whole_o to_o leave_v and_o

to_o all_o self-seeking_a yet_o that_o be_v not_o the_o argument_n that_o lie_v here_o it_o be_v not_o the_o argument_n of_o this_o scripture_n but_o a_o man_n be_v call_v upon_o by_o this_o

though_o every_o believer_n be_v to_o deny_v himself_o in_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o so_o to_o depress_v himself_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v not_o to_o speak_v evil_a of_o the_o grace_n of_o

up_o jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a dwell_v in_o you_o again_o you_o may_v observe_v here_o that_o christ_n in_o a_o believer_n be_v not_o habitual_a grace_n only_o for_o say_v he_o if_o the_o spirit_n
