be_v typify_v and_o shadow_v out_o thereby_o which_o be_v now_o abolish_v by_o christ_n and_o prove_v second_o that_o it_o be_v use_v by_o we_o out_o of_o any_o judaize_v principle_n what_o this_o

he_o do_v the_o scripture_n any_o where_o say_v so_o or_o do_v the_o apostle_n any_o where_o call_v this_o will-worship_n why_o do_v he_o not_o quote_v chapter_n and_o verse_n or_o deduce_v it_o by_o some_o logical_a and_o natural_a inference_n no_o body_n i_o hope_v will_v believe_v this_o man_n pure_o upon_o the_o score_n of_o his_o confidence_n god_n have_v clothe_v those_o garment_n under_o

be_v goodly_a and_o beautiful_a garment_n they_o can_v never_o have_v be_v esteem_v ridiculous_a if_o god_n have_v command_v nothing_o at_o all_o about_o they_o and_o his_o command_v they_o be_v i_o think_v a_o good_a argument_n that_o in_o themselves_o they_o be_v not_o so_o it_o be_v i_o must_v confess_v very_o observable_a that_o there_o be_v so_o much_o humane_a learning_n in_o this_o man_n and_o his_o party_n that_o they_o can_v count_v nine_o but_o what_o if_o god_n have_v command_v ninety_o time_n in_o one_o chapter_n that_o the_o aaronical_a garment_n shall_v only_o be_v make_v so_o and_o so_o be_v it_o any_o thing_n to_o we_o who_o according_a to_o himself_o be_v no_o way_n concern_v in_o those_o ceremony_n and_o shadow_n of_o the_o law_n and_o to_o who_o god_n have_v not_o

therefore_o leave_v at_o liberty_n to_o use_v such_o garment_n as_o shall_v be_v judge_v most_o agreeable_a thereto_o god_n under_o the_o gospel_n have_v neither_o forbid_v nor_o command_v the_o use_n of_o any_o if_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v he_o have_v then_o farewell_n surplice_n and_o here_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_n that_o since_o this_o man_n join_v the_o cross_n with_o the_o surplice_n in_o

whether_o this_o that_o you_o assert_v namely_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o bring_v any_o thing_n of_o man_n invention_n into_o the_o service_n of_o god_n nor_o use_v any_o thing_n in_o his_o

for_o a_o sin_n which_o be_v not_o the_o transgression_n of_o any_o law_n if_o it_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n than_o it_o be_v either_o express_o such_o or_o it_o be_v a_o clear_a inference_n and_o deduction_n from_o his_o express_a word_n you_o can_v pretend_v the_o former_a and_o therefore_o that_o which_o you_o say_v be_v that_o it_o clear_o follow_v from_o god_n particular_a prescribe_v

first_o this_o notion_n of_o christian_a liberty_n tend_v to_o introduce_v sad_a disorder_n and_o confusion_n into_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o will_v certain_o do_v it_o if_o practise_v
