set_v forth_o by_o mr._n gataker_n in_o the_o preface_n whereof_o you_o may_v see_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o modern_a antinomian_o viz._n 1._o that_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v of_o no_o use_n at_o all_o to_o a_o believer_n no●_n a_o rule_n for_o he_o to_o walk_v in_o nor_o to_o examine_v his_o life_n by_o and_o tha●_n christian_n be_v free_a from_o the_o mandatory_a power_n of_o it_o when●●_n one_o of_o they_o cry_v out_o in_o the_o pulpit_n away_o with_o the_o la●●_n which_o cut_v off_o a_o man_n leg_n and_o then_o bid_v he_o walk_v 2._o that_o it_o be_v as_o possible_a for_o christ_n himself_o to_o sin_n as_o for_o a_o child_n of_o god_n to_o sin_n 3._o that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n need_v not_o nor_o ought_v not_o to_o ask_v pardon_n for_o sin_n and_o that_o it_o be_v no_o less_o than_o blasphemy_n for_o he_o so_o to_o do_v 4._o that_o god_n do_v not_o chasten_v any_o of_o his_o child_n for_o sin_n nor_o be_v it_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o god_n people_n that_o the_o land_n be_v punish_v 5._o that_o if_o a_o man_n know_v himself_o to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n though_o he_o be_v drink_v or_o commit_v murder_n god_n see_v no_o sin_n in_o in_o he_o 6._o that_o when_o abraham_n deny_v his_o wife_n and_o in_o outward_a appearance_n seem_v to_o lie_v in_o his_o distrust_n lie_v dissemble_v and_o equivocate_a that_o his_o wife_n be_v his_o sister_n yea_o than_o all_o his_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n be_v perfect_o holy_a and_o righteous_a from_o all_o spot_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n free_o to_o this_o i_o may_v add_v that_o wholesome_a exhortation_n of_o one_o of_o their_o teacher_n in_o his_o pulpit_n let_v believer_n sin_n as_o fast_o they_o will_v they_o have_v a_o fountain_n open_a to_o wash_v they_o may_v not_o a_o
