working_n of_o the_o law_n first_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o i_o will_v lay_v a_o necessity_n upon_o such_o a_o precedency_n of_o a_o legal_a work_n before_o i_o do_v come_v to_o christ_n than_o i_o be_o too_o legal_a 7._o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n man_n do_v then_o upon_o any_o great_a discovery_n of_o god_n fly_v from_o god_n as_o when_o god_n give_v out_o the_o law_n they_o flee_v from_o god_n and_o when_o christ_n do_v a_o great_a work_n before_o peter_n lord_n say_v he_o depart_v from_o i_o for_o i_o be_o a_o sinful_a man_n but_o now_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o great_a the_o discovery_n be_v the_o more_o a_o gospel_n spirit_n do_v draw_v near_o to_o god_n oh_o it_o be_v good_a for_o i_o to_o be_v here_o say_v he_o 8._o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v a_o time_n of_o the_o letter_n and_o therefore_o if_o a_o man_n of_o a_o legal_a spirit_n can_v but_o perform_v his_o duty_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o commandment_n he_o be_v satisfy_v but_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v the_o time_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o be_v not_o minister_n of_o the_o letter_n but_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o a_o gospel_n spirit_n though_o he_o can_v perform_v his_o duty_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o command_n yet_o if_o he_o do_v attain_v the_o spirit_n in_o it_o he_o be_v unsatisfied_a 9_o to_o say_v no_o more_o in_o it_o but_o this_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n god_n speak_v by_o vision_n and_o dream_n and_o sign_n but_o now_o in_o these_o latter_a day_n he_o have_v speak_v by_o his_o son_n and_o we_o have_v a_o more_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n whereunto_o we_o do_v well_o that_o we_o take_v heed_n so_o that_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n and_o what_o the_o difference_n be_v between_o the_o way_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n between_o a_o old_a testament_n and_o a_o new_a testament_n spirit_n f●urthly_o but_o then_o 4_o suppose_v now_o that_o i_o have_v recourse_n too_o much_o to_o m●ses_n in_o these_o gospel_n time_n and_o not_o enough_o unto_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n suppose_v i_o be_v legal_a in_o these_o gospel_n time_n be_v there_o any_o great_a danger_n in_o it_o much_o very_o much_o and_o i_o pray_v consider_v it_o that_o we_o may_v be_v all_o find_v upon_o gospel_n ground_n in_o this_o gospel_n day_n danger_n i_o say_v much_o for_o i._o the_o more_o legal_a you_o be_v in_o gospel_n time_n the_o more_o sinful_a you_o will_v be_v and_o the_o less_o able_a for_o to_o live_v unto_o god_n 1._o the_o more_o sinful_a you_o will_v be_v for_o say_v the_o apostle_n let_v not_o sin_n reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n for_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n and_o the_o less_o able_a you_o will_v be_v to_o live_v unto_o god_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n gal._n 2.19_o i_o through_o the_o law_n be_o dead_a to_o the_o law_n that_o i_o may_v live_v unto_o god_n till_o you_o be_v dead_a unto_o the_o law_n you_o will_v never_o live_v unto_o god_n and_o in_o the_o rom._n 7._o you_o be_v become_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o you_o shall_v be_v marry_v to_o another_o even_o to_o he_o who_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a that_o we_o shall_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n untr_n god_n dead_a unto_o the_o law_n that_o you_o may_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n unto_o god_n never_o think_v of_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n unto_o god_n while_o you_o be_v upon_o a_o legal_a ground_n and_o come_v not_o off_o full_o to_o jesus_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n it_o be_v observe_v that_o the_o law_n be_v give_v out_o twice_o in_o table_n of_o stone_n and_o the_o first_o time_n that_o they_o be_v give_v out_o god_n do_v cut_v out_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n and_o he_o himself_o do_v write_v the_o law_n with_o his_o own_o finger_n in_o those_o table_n the_o second_o time_n moses_n cut_v out_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n and_o moses_n write_v the_o word_n of_o the_o commandment_n upon_o those_o table_n in_o the_o 34._o of_o exod._n hew_v thou_o two_o table_n of_o stone_n like_v unto_o the_o first_o say_v god_n well_o so_o he_o do_v at_o the_o 28._o v._o and_o he_o write_v upon_o the_o table_n the_o word_n of_o the_o covenant_n the_o ten_o commandment_n the_o first_o table_n be_v of_o god_n own_o make_n and_o the_o writing_n be_v of_o god_n own_o finger_n the_o second_o table_n be_v of_o moses_n frame_v and_o moses_n write_v and_o yet_o the_o first_o be_v break_v the_o second_o keep_v what_o shall_v be_v the_o reason_n one_o will_v think_v that_o the_o first_o table_n shall_v have_v be_v keep_v as_o a_o holy_a thing_n rather_o than_o the_o second_o but_o the_o first_o be_v break_v and_o the_o second_o keep_v why_o for_o a_o good_a reason_n say_v austin_n because_o when_o the_o commandment_n be_v give_v in_o the_o first_o table_n than_o god_n appear_v in_o a_o dreadful_a way_n with_o thunder_a and_o lightning_n when_o god_n give_v out_o the_o commandment_n again_o the_o lord_n appear_v in_o a_o way_n of_o grace_n the_o lord_n proclaim_v unto_o moses_n exod_n 34._o the_o lord_n the_o lord_n god_n merciful_a and_o gracious_a long-suffering_a and_o abundant_a in_o goodness_n and_o truth_n keep_v mercy_n for_o thousand_o thus_o god_n proclaim_v himself_o as_o a_o gracious_a and_o merciful_a god_n and_o when_o the_o law_n come_v out_o now_o it_o be_v keep_v no_o such_o way_n to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n as_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o free_a grace_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n when_o the_o law_n come_v out_o with_o a_o gospel_n hand_n i_o then_o it_o be_v keep_v and_o the_o commandment_n not_o break_v so_o that_o i_o say_v the_o more_o legal_a you_o be_v the_o more_o sinful_a you_o will_v be_v and_o the_o less_o able_a you_o will_v be_v for_o to_o live_v unto_o god_n 2._o the_o more_o legal_a you_o be_v the_o more_o opposite_a you_o be_v to_o your_o own_o assurance_n to_o a_o full_a settle_a assurance_n of_o your_o interest_n in_o god_n and_o christ_n we_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n you_o read_v it_o again_o to_o fear_v but_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o we_o cry_v abba_n father_n assurance_n be_v a_o work_n of_o the_o comforter_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o servitude_n it_o be_v opposite_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o we_o cry_v abba_n father_n it_o be_v a_o great_a enemy_n unto_o true_a assurance_n now_o be_v it_o not_o a_o miserable_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n to_o be_v always_o fluctuate_a and_o never_o to_o have_v assurance_n settle_v the_o more_o legal_a you_o be_v the_o more_o opposite_a to_o your_o own_o assurance_n but_o 3._o though_o you_o do_v serve_v and_o worship_v the_o true_a god_n yet_o if_o you_o worship_v he_o in_o a_o legal_a way_n your_o worship_n will_v be_v antichristian_a for_n what_o be_v antichrist_n and_o who_o be_v antichrist_n the_o apostle_n john_n tell_v you_o in_o the_o 1_o epist_n 4.3_o every_o spirit_n that_o confess_v not_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v in_o the_o

in_o the_o flesh_n in_o so_o many_o term_n no_o he_o shall_v not_o deny_v the_o incarnation_n of_o christ_n for_o he_o shall_v sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n how_o then_o shall_v antichrist_n deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v ●n_o the_o flesh_n he_o shall_v set_v up_o such_o a_o worship_n as_o be_v before_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a
