A64243	The true light shining in darkness and dispelling the mists of errour arising from the darkness of man's heart, &c. promoted by the prince of darkness against the truth of God; in the matter of our justification: shewing, that by the deeds of the law, or mans own righteousness, no flesh can or shall be justified in the sight of God. The first part. By Tho. Taylor, the meanest and unworthiest of the servants and ministers of Jesus Christ; and now pastor to a small congregational church in Cambridge.

have_v confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n and_o there_o be_v two_o reason_n why_o all_o a_o man_n own_o righteousness_n be_v call_v flesh_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v weak_a and_o unable_a to_o bear_v the_o weight_n of_o man_n hope_n and_o confidence_n as_o touch_v his_o be_v righteous_a thereby_o or_o justify_v before_o god_n and_o thus_o the_o horse_n of_o the_o egyptian_n be_v say_v to_o be_v flesh_n not_o spirit_n because_o of_o their_o weakness_n and_o inability_n to_o answer_v the_o sinful_a trust_n and_o confidence_n which_o the_o jew_n have_v in_o they_o isa._n 31._o v._n 3._o and_o 2._o because_o it_o be_v pollute_v sinful_a and_o unclean_a by_o the_o infirmity_n and_o imperfection_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o best_a and_o by_o the_o mixture_n of_o sin_n and_o corruption_n that_o attend_v we_o in_o our_o best_a duty_n as_o isa._n 64.6_o but_o we_o be_v all_o as_o a_o unclean_a thing_n and_o our_o righteousness_n be_v as_o filthy_a rag_n and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v trust_v in_o and_o rely_v upon_o when_o we_o come_v before_o and_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n now_o therefore_o you_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o desire_v to_o rejoice_v in_o christ_n jesus_n have_v see_v that_o you_o have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n covet_v earnest_o the_o best_a gift_n strive_v after_o the_o high_a attainment_n of_o inherent_a grace_n and_o holiness_n but_o trust_v not_o to_o put_v no_o confidence_n in_o your_o own_o work_n and_o righteousness_n for_o by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n there_o shall_v no_o flesh_n be_v justify_v in_o his_o sight_n 3._o and_o last_o of_o all_o see_v that_o you_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n phil._n 3.2_o for_o we_o be_v the_o true_a circumcision_n which_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n rejoice_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n so_o that_o to_o your_o rejoice_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o flesh_n you_o must_v add_v this_o also_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n now_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n imply_v these_o three_o thing_n namely_o 1._o to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o christ_n those_o of_o the_o concision_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o phil._n 3._o who_o trust_v to_o circumcision_n and_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n or_o their_o own_o righteousness_n worship_v god_n in_o the_o deed_n and_o work_n of_o the_o law_n which_o the_o apostle_n here_o call_v flesh_n and_o so_o they_o worship_v god_n not_o in_o the_o spirit_n but_o in_o the_o flesh_n they_o rest_v in_o their_o own_o deed_n and_o work_n and_o look_v not_o to_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v the_o end_n perfection_n and_o substance_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n and_o so_o indeed_o their_o worship_n terminate_v in_o their_o own_o righteousness_n and_o they_o do_v not_o by_o faith_n go_v out_o of_o themselves_o unto_o christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n and_o so_o they_o do_v not_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n i._n e._n evangelical_o and_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n but_o legal_o and_o presume_v upon_o their_o own_o merit_n and_o worthiness_n without_o

covenant_n and_o grace_n to_o worship_n god_n therefore_o in_o christ_n and_o by_o faith_n in_o he_o as_o your_o only_a righteousness_n and_o always_o to_o come_v unto_o the_o father_n by_o the_o son_n this_o be_v indeed_o to_o worship_n he_o in_o the_o spirit_n rely_v upon_o his_o mediation_n merit_n blood_n and_o righteousness_n as_o the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o old_a covenant_n and_o work_n 2._o to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o worship_v he_o sincere_o and_o with_o a_o true_a heart_n and_o thus_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o worship_v he_o in_o truth_n joh._n 4_o 23_o 24._o but_o the_o hour_n come_v and_o now_o be_v when_o the_o true_a worshipper_n shall_v worship_v the_o father_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n for_o the_o father_n seek_v such_o to_o worship_n he_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o they_o that_o worship_n he_o must_v worship_n he_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n these_o
