as_o hard_o as_o to_o wash_v a_o blackmore_n white_a now_o this_o people_n be_v a_o custom_a four_o thousand_o year_n to_o serve_v god_n with_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o temple_n and_o

of_o that_o outward_a worship_n because_o they_o have_v feed_v so_o long_o upon_o it_o that_o they_o dote_v as_o we_o at_o this_o day_n as_o they_o will_v make_v a_o curious_a outward_a worship_n as_o of_o old_a they_o wring_v and_o wrest_v the_o scripture_n to_o make_v it_o fair_a and_o delicate_a and_o curious_a as_o that_o that_o god_n will_v have_v of_o they_o but_o christ_n design_n be_v to_o

that_o work_v by_o love_n talk_v not_o of_o outward_a thing_n stand_v not_o so_o much_o upon_o they_o not_o but_o that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n must_v look_v to_o external_o as_o far_o as_o god_n have_v set_v they_o down_o but_o talk_v not_o so_o much_o of_o they_o but_o faith_n that_o work_v by_o love_n see_v there_o be_v that_o so_o in_o gal._n 6.15_o the_o same_o word_n almost_o for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n or_o uncircumcision_n but_o a_o new_a creature_n in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n he_o look_v not_o whether_o man_n be_v circumcise_v or_o uncircumcised_a but_o whether_o they_o be_v new_a creature_n so_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.17_o there_o be_v the_o same_o word_n almost_o the_o apostle_n point_v out_o unto_o we_o how_o much_o god_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n regard_v inward_a worship_n therefore_o we_o see_v in_o rom._n 14._o where_o there_o be_v great_a controversy_n concern_v the_o eat_n of_o herb_n and_o the_o keep_n of_o day_n paul_n answer_v not_o direct_o but_o say_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v not_o in_o these_o thing_n but_o in_o righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o strive_v about_o these_o thing_n but_o go_v to_o the_o inward_a worship_n see_v that_o there_o be_v righteousness_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o in_o heb._n 13._o when_o there_o be_v clash_v about_o these_o outward_a thing_n it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n say_v he_o that_o the_o heart_n be_v establish_v with_o grace_n and_o so_o in_o timothy_n bodily_a excercise_n profit_v little_a but_o godliness_n be_v profitable_a for_o all_o thing_n therefore_o the_o design_n of_o god_n be_v to_o set_v up_o a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n the_o work_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o heart_n that_o we_o may_v worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n the_o lord_n have_v give_v more_o liberty_n and_o be_v more_o spare_v in_o lay_v down_o of_o external_a worship_n last_o this_o be_v another_o reason_n tho_o i_o can_v give_v many_o more_o that_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n &_o they_o be_v different_a in_o custom_n in_o climate_n in_o constitution_n substance_n the_o gospel_n be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o different_a nation_n christ_n tie_v they_o chief_o to_o that_o substance_n and_o disposition_n christ_n tie_v they_o in_o his_o law_n for_o the_o substance_n so_o leave_v the_o rest_n to_o be_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o his_o people_n to_o be_v determine_v according_a to_o the_o best_a advantage_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n as_o for_o instance_n it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o make_v a_o law_n for_o all_o england_n and_o for_o all_o the_o county_n and_o town_n that_o that_o shall_v be_v good_a for_o one_o county_n that_o be_v for_o another_o and_o for_o one_o town_n that_o be_v for_o another_o but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v to_o make_v a_o law_n for_o spain_n and_o france_n and_o italy_n and_o turkey_n &_o for_o all_o the_o world_n that_o be_v nation_n cross_v and_o contrary_a one_o to_o another_o in_o their_o climate_n and_o disposition_n that_o law_n that_o be_v good_a for_o one_o kingdom_n will_v destroy_v another_o so_o here_o when_o christ_n make_v law_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n there_o be_v but_o one_o nation_n and_o a_o little_a nation_n and_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o to_o remove_v from_o that_o nation_n therefore_o he_o come_v to_o particular_n but_o the_o gospel_n now_o be_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n he_o have_v leave_v a_o latitude_n for_o his_o people_n that_o they_o may_v apply_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o country_n and_o nation_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n as_o for_o instance_n baptism_n baptism_n say_v christ_n baptise_v all_o nation_n that_o be_v go_v and_o use_v water_n for_o their_o wash_n for_o whatever_o man_n find_v in_o the_o word_n i_o speak_v not_o of_o now_o go_v use_v water_n for_o a_o spiritual_a end_n to_o purge_v their_o body_n to_o signify_v the_o purge_n of_o the_o soul_n if_o christ_n have_v tie_v man_n to_o go_v into_o jordan_n as_o in_o that_o country_n it_o be_v so_o hot_a they_o may_v go_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o comfort_n but_o if_o christ_n have_v make_v baptism_n such_o a_o ordinance_n as_o that_o in_o all_o climate_n and_o country_n and_o region_n they_o must_v go_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o a_o river_n we_o know_v in_o some_o climate_n it_o will_v have_v be_v present_a death_n

christ_n lay_v down_o the_o substance_n and_o the_o end_n and_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o sound_a preach_v he_o leave_v the_o rest_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o his_o people_n to_o apply_v again_o to_o instance_n in_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n the_o lord_n supper_n the_o lord_n take_v bread_n and_o wine_n and_o bless_v and_o break_v and_o give_v they_o and_o the_o drift_n of_o all_o the_o business_n be_v to_o show_v the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o shed_n of_o his_o blood_n now_o he_o have_v bind_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v break_v bread_n and_o

that_o have_v neither_o bread_n nor_o wine_n but_o only_a root_n that_o they_o call_v bread_n and_o they_o have_v water_n for_o their_o drink_n now_o if_o christ_n have_v say_v it_o must_v be_v true_a

of_o their_o knowledge_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n by_o outward_a mean_n the_o meaning_n be_v this_o they_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v little_a knowledge_n but_o what_o they_o get_v by_o

shall_v not_o come_v by_o outward_a external_a way_n but_o say_v god_n i_o will_v pour_v out_o abundance_n of_o my_o spirit_n and_o they_o shall_v all_o know_v i_o from_o the_o least_o to_o the_o

four_o testament_n 4._o god_n will_v set_v up_o a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n if_o you_o will_v know_v why_o christ_n have_v give_v a_o large_a latitude_n and_o liberty_n in_o

all_o the_o old_a thing_n the_o service_n and_o offering_n in_o the_o old_a law_n be_v but_o sign_n and_o shadow_n of_o spiritual_a worship_n the_o king_n daughter_n be_v all_o glorious_a within_o prophesy_v of_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o their_o glory_n shall_v be_v chief_o &_o main_o in_o inward_a grace_n therefore_o as_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n there_o be_v a_o

come_v in_o place_n but_o when_o it_o be_v expedient_a complete_o god_n never_o dispense_v with_o such_o a_o action_n but_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n not_o to_o do_v it_o as_o for_o instance_n suppose_v

all_o my_o drift_n have_v be_v to_o illustrate_v and_o clear_a out_o that_o old-testament_n principle_n that_o be_v the_o root_n of_o all_o mischief_n almost_o what_o be_v that_o that_o principle_n in_o you_o whereby_o you_o will_v go_v and_o make_v law_n in_o external_a thing_n under_o the_o gospel_n where_o christ_n have_v not_o make_v they_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n neglect_v or_o

object_n you_o will_v say_v sir_n for_o all_o you_o say_v you_o aim_v at_o peace_n and_o you_o endeavour_v peace_n yet_o notwithstanding_o i_o think_v you_o seem_v to_o innervate_v the_o word_n of_o

with_o it_o there_o will_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n void_a for_o you_o tell_v we_o that_o every_o example_n no_o not_o every_o precept_n do_v not_o make_v a_o absolute_a rule_n to_o bind_v the_o

bless_a book_n that_o be_v unprofitable_a answ_n 1_o use_n nothing_o in_o the_o scripture_n but_o be_v of_o use_n but_o i_o deny_v this_o also_o that_o every_o thing_n in_o the_o new-testament_n be_v
