be_v the_o judge_n of_o all_o controversy_n i_o mean_v such_o controversy_n as_o be_v concern_v religion_n now_o there_o be_v two_o principal_a controversy_n concern_v religion_n the_o first_o be_v of_o the_o scripture_n itself_o who_o shall_v be_v judge_n here_o or_o how_o it_o may_v be_v try_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o second_o scripture_n the_o judge_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v of_o the_o sense_n and_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n who_o shall_v judge_n of_o that_o or_o how_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o this_o or_o that_o be_v the_o very_a natural_a sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n i_o mean_v by_o judgement_n here_o a_o definitive_a sentence_n pronounce_v and_o give_v with_o such_o authority_n as_o that_o all_o man_n must_v herein_o rest_v by_o the_o word_n scripture_n i_o mean_v not_o only_o the_o substance_n thereof_o but_o also_o the_o form_n of_o revelation_n which_o be_v also_o by_o divine_a inspiration_n again_o this_o manner_n of_o speak_v be_v improper_a when_o we_o say_v of_o the_o scripture_n that_o it_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o controversy_n for_o to_o speak_v proper_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o judge_n for_o the_o judge_n must_v be_v a_o person_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o be_v the_o three_o person_n in_o trinity_n the_o scripture_n therefore_o be_v not_o proper_o say_v to_o be_v a_o judge_n but_o it_o be_v the_o voice_n and_o sentence_n which_o the_o judge_n have_v give_v the_o principal_a instrument_n or_o mean_v whereby_o y_a e_o spirit_n set_v forth_o his_o judgement_n &_o whereby_o he_o teach_v we_o and_o work_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o the_o spirit_n here_o judge_v free_o in_o and_o by_o who_o he_o please_v be_v not_o tie_v to_o any_o one_o kind_a of_o man_n as_o pastor_n &_o doctor_n but_o in_o and_o by_o who_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o he_o here_o then_o three_o thing_n must_v be_v consider_v of_o we_o first_o whether_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n second_o whether_o the_o scripture_n be_v his_o principal_a voice_n whereby_o he_o give_v judge_n first_o whether_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n sentence_n or_o determine_v any_o question_n three_o whether_o he_o judge_n in_o and_o by_o any_o man_n without_o difference_n or_o respect_n of_o person_n or_o be_v bind_v to_o one_o certain_a kind_n or_o sort_n of_o man_n for_o the_o first_o question_n i_o answer_v the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o judge_n first_o for_o that_o he_o be_v promise_v of_o christ_n 16._o io_n 14._o math_n 28._o mar._n 16._o unto_o his_o church_n at_o his_o last_o departure_n from_o the_o apostle_n &_o be_v give_v &_o as_o it_o be_v depute_a christ_n vicar_n on_o earth_n both_o to_o teach_v and_o to_o judge_v etc._n etc._n second_o for_o that_o among_o other_o office_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o be_v one_o to_o judge_v but_o because_o the_o adversary_n do_v not_o much_o gainsay_v this_o assertion_n concern_v 16._o io._n 16._o god_n spirit_n that_o by_o he_o all_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v judge_v and_o try_v and_o that_o by_o he_o the_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v interpret_v therefore_o we_o will_v be_v brief_a in_o this_o point_n now_o for_o the_o second_o point_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o primarie_a judge_n second_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v the_o principal_a voice_n of_o the_o judge_n voice_n of_o this_o judge_n judiciary_n and_o proper_a to_o he_o whereby_o he_o beget_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n may_v appear_v by_o these_o reason_n follow_v first_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n second_o it_o be_v most_o ancient_a three_o it_o be_v most_o clear_a or_o evident_a to_o these_o i_o add_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n itself_o joh._n 14._o 25._o 26._o he_o shall_v teach_v you_o all_o thing_n and_o bring_v all_o thing_n to_o suggeret_fw-la to_o suggeret_fw-la remembrance_n which_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o and_o hereunto_o may_v also_o be_v add_v the_o common_a experience_n of_o the_o saint_n there_o be_v other_o mean_n to_o prove_v this_o but_o less_o principal_a among_o which_o the_o testimony_n of_o
justification_n which_o be_v by_o christ_n only_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n only_o by_o faith_n only_o for_o all_o these_o have_v one_o respect_n and_o purpose_n observe_v then_o here_o by_o the_o way_n what_o the_o palpable_a blindness_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v in_o this_o clear_a light_n of_o the_o gospel_n blindness_n popish_a blindness_n first_o they_o see_v not_o how_o nature_n be_v plain_o lose_v as_o touch_v sanctity_n second_o they_o know_v not_o the_o sole_a grace_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v they_o understand_v what_o the_o excellency_n be_v of_o christ_n merit_n three_o they_o perceive_v not_o how_o that_o covenant_n of_o work_n be_v abolish_v to_o they_o which_o be_v in_o christ_n as_o touch_v justification_n four_o they_o conceive_v not_o that_o the_o only_a covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v make_v with_o mankind_n after_o the_o fall_n special_o now_o after_o the_o incarnation_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o unto_o justification_n and_o life_n eternal_a five_o they_o see_v not_o that_o the_o work_n of_o free_a will_n as_o they_o call_v they_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o to_o be_v duty_n only_o and_o testimony_n of_o thankfulness_n according_a to_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n which_o be_v do_v by_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n but_o ascribe_v some_o special_a meritorious_a virtue_n unto_o they_o wherefore_o we_o conclude_v concern_v these_o man_n that_o albeit_o they_o be_v not_o just_a of_o one_o mind_n with_o those_o old_a jew_n against_o who_o the_o apostle_n dispute_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n yet_o they_o hold_v much_o on_o their_o side_n strive_v to_o defend_v that_o nature_n be_v in_o part_n good_a and_o holy_a so_o contend_v against_o the_o pure_a and_o only_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o to_o divide_v justification_n and_o justification_n the_o popish_a justification_n man_n salvation_n between_o christ_n and_o god_n free_a grace_n &_o the_o virtue_n and_o work_n of_o nature_n whereas_o notwithstanding_o these_o two_o nature_n and_o grace_n can_v never_o stand_v together_o in_o the_o work_n of_o our_o salvation_n for_o whosoever_o shall_v conjoin_v or_o make_v a_o mixture_n of_o grace_n and_o nature_n in_o this_o matter_n shall_v quite_o overthrow_v and_o extinguish_v grace_n which_o either_o be_v alone_o or_o not_o at_o all_o as_o rom._n 11._o 6._o if_o it_o be_v of_o grace_n it_o be_v no_o more_o of_o work_n for_o otherwise_o grace_n be_v no_o more_o grace_n and_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o galathian_o he_o do_v purpose_o dispute_v against_o those_o jew_n which_o do_v couple_n together_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o justification_n the_o gift_n and_o work_n of_o nature_n with_o christ_n with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o with_o the_o gospel_n and_o these_o jew_n as_o i_o judge_v the_o papist_n seem_v most_o to_o resemble_v i_o mean_v those_o jew_n against_o who_o he_o write_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o galathian_o for_o in_o that_o other_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n he_o dispute_v against_o such_o jew_n as_o do_v open_o deny_v christ_n and_o reject_v he_o but_o to_o the_o galathian_o his_v disputation_n be_v against_o such_o jew_n as_o be_v not_o content_a with_o christ_n only_o but_o will_v have_v christ_n and_o the_o law_n join_v together_o thus_o far_o of_o the_o comparison_n between_o paul_n and_o we_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o old_a jew_n and_o the_o papist_n on_o the_o other_o now_o because_o it_o will_v be_v demand_v what_o paul_n think_v of_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n and_o what_o we_o and_o what_o the_o adversary_n think_v also_o therefore_o i_o will_v touch_v this_o question_n in_o few_o word_n here_o then_o some_o one_o will_v say_v do_v paul_n then_o in_o that_o disputation_n to_o the_o rom._n and_o to_o the_o galathian_o oppugn_v the_o work_n of_o grace_n and_o regeneration_n i_o answer_v paul_n chief_a purpose_n in_o that_o disputation_n be_v against_o the_o work_n of_o nature_n which_o the_o jew_n think_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o just_a and_o also_o meritorious_a he_o do_v not_o reject_v the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n as_o they_o be_v duty_n and_o testimony_n of_o thankfulness_n unto_o god_n but_o in_o that_o respect_n commend_v they_o rom._n 6._o 7._o 8._o chapter_n and_o in_o other_o place_n but_o as_o touch_v

as_o any_o cause_n or_o as_o part_v of_o any_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o salvation_n to_o this_o purpose_n he_o say_v rom._n 4._o that_o abraham_n himself_o be_v regenerate_v be_v not_o justify_v

that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n he_o do_v clear_o avouch_v it_o that_o eternal_a life_n be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesu_n in_o which_o place_n if_o the_o apostle_n have_v be_v of_o this_o judgement_n that_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n be_v in_o any_o respect_n meritorious_a assure_o he_o will_v not_o so_o pass_v over_o the_o commendation_n of_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n special_o for_o that_o this_o here_o be_v principal_o intend_v wherefore_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o roman_n so_o reject_v the_o work_n of_o nature_n which_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n require_v yet_o he_o understand_v also_o all_o kind_n of_o work_n moral_a and_o natural_a go_v before_o grace_n and_o faith_n as_o also_o all_o ceremonial_a work_n and_o the_o very_a fruit_n of_o regeneration_n which_o follow_v grace_n and_o faith_n that_o faith_n only_o christ_n only_o grace_v only_o may_v herein_o be_v all_o in_o all_o thus_o far_o of_o s._n paul_n judgement_n we_o at_o this_o day_n be_v of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o mind_n with_o the_o apostle_n concern_v work_n of_o regeneration_n our_o adversary_n grant_v there_o be_v such_o work_n ascribe_v too_o much_o unto_o

justification_n which_o they_o call_v the_o second_o justification_n again_o we_o be_v to_o remember_v that_o the_o adversary_n judgement_n concern_v work_n of_o regeneration_n be_v that_o they_o

alike_o see_v that_o the_o matter_n in_o either_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o but_o if_o you_o compare_v the_o kind_n of_o reuclation_n together_o it_o can_v true_o be_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o first_o &_o better_a place_n be_v due_a to_o the_o lively_a voice_n see_v that_o the_o lively_a voice_n be_v both_o in_o respect_n of_o time_n more_o ancient_a &_o be_v before_o the_o organ_n or_o

more_o perfect_a &_o accurate_a kind_n of_o revelation_n fit_a to_o instruct_v those_o that_o be_v more_o perfect_a &_o to_o keep_v the_o truth_n more_o firm_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o y_o it_o in_o other_o respect_v they_o be_v both_o alike_o for_o they_o have_v both_o speak_v &_o write_v the_o same_o thing_n &_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n to_o wit_n as_o be_v
