away_o from_o grace_n and_o thus_o some_o have_v be_v too_o bold_a with_o i_o in_o this_o particular_a and_o when_o i_o have_v prove_v the_o law_n to_o be_v useless_a unto_o we_o in_o many_o

it_o needless_a to_o give_v any_o large_a answer_n concern_v the_o 3._o other_o branch_n in_o this_o article_n to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v no_o rule_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o walk_v by_o nor_o to_o examine_v his_o life_n by_o and_o that_o christian_n be_v freee_v from_o the_o mandatory_a power_n of_o it_o i_o can_v either_o affirm_v or_o deny_v they_o all_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o in_o a_o sense_n we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v under_o the_o rule_n and_o power_n of_o the_o law_n and_o in_o a_o sense_n it_o be_v true_a that_o we_o be_v not_o under_o the_o rule_n and_o power_n of_o it_o which_o if_o it_o be_v well_o weigh_v by_o the_o balance_n of_o right_a reason_n whether_o these_o who_o have_v charge_v i_o with_o this_o not_o state_v the_o question_n as_o i_o do_v when_o i_o deliver_v my_o judgement_n and_o suppress_v my_o meaning_n in_o their_o article_n may_v be_v justify_v in_o this_o action_n i_o leave_v it_o to_o any_o man_n true_o rational_a and_o unprejudiced_a concern_v i_o yea_o to_o themselves_o when_o god_n shall_v awaken_v their_o conscience_n to_o judge_v wherefore_o that_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o my_o meaning_n may_v be_v more_o evident_a i_o shall_v present_v to_o the_o view_n of_o the_o reader_n the_o distinction_n which_o i_o make_v use_v of_o in_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o controversy_n the_o first_o distinction_n be_v this_o that_o the_o law_n may_v be_v consider_v as_o deliver_v in_o sinai_n &_o zion_n gal._n 4.24_o as_o the_o covenant_n of_o sinai_n or_o as_o a_o part_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o zion_n isa_n 2.3_o for_o out_o of_o zion_n shall_v go_v forth_o the_o law_n and_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n from_o jerusalem_n 2_o as_o 1._o deliver_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n 2._o by_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n and_o though_o this_o distinction_n have_v be_v brand_v by_o some_o of_o the_o learned_a teacher_n of_o our_o time_n in_o their_o pulpit_n and_o press_n with_o the_o infamous_a mark_n of_o antinomianism_n yet_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o i_o shall_v easy_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v a_o scripture_n distinction_n this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o speech_n of_o john_n joh._n 1.17_o the_o law_n be_v give_v by_o moses_n but_o grace_n &_o truth_n come_v by_o jesus_n christ_n by_o moses_n that_o be_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n as_o it_o be_v plain_a by_o leu._n 26.46_o these_o be_v the_o law_n which_o the_o lord_n make_v between_o he_o and_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n in_o mount_n sinai_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n so_o grace_n and_o truth_n be_v give_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o

these_o distinction_n i_o shall_v answer_v plain_o to_o these_o several_a branch_n and_o not_o be_v afraid_a to_o own_o what_o i_o have_v deliver_v because_o i_o be_o still_o confident_a that_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o christ_n 1._o the_o law_n as_o deliver_v by_o moses_n be_v not_o the_o rule_n by_o which_o a_o believe_a christian_n do_v walk_v but_o as_o it_o be_v deliver_v unto_o he_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n i_o shall_v prove_v this_o by_o this_o argument_n a_o covenant_n of_o work_n be_v not_o the_o rule_n by_o which_o a_o believe_a christian_n do_v walk_v the_o law_n as_o deliver_v in_o sinai_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n therefore_o the_o law_n as_o deliver_v in_o sinai_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n be_v not_o a_o rule_n by_o which_o a_o believe_a christian_n do_v walk_v i_o do_v suppose_v that_o you_o will_v not_o deny_v the_o major_a proposition_n you_o will_v not_o say_v that_o a_o covenant_n of_o work_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o a_o christian_a for_o then_o a_o christian_a shall_v work_v that_o he_o may_v live_v whereas_o a_o true_a christian_a do_v work_v because_o he_o do_v live_v and_o have_v life_n without_o work_n if_o you_o shall_v deny_v the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n i_o shall_v prove_v it_o by_o these_o reason_n which_o be_v draw_v from_o scripture_n reas_n 1._o the_o apostle_n do_v frequent_o oppose_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o law_n to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o grace_n &_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n which_o he_o can_v not_o do_v if_o the_o law_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n 1._o he_o oppose_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o gospel_n rom._n 10.5.6_o moses_n describe_v the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o the_o law_n that_o the_o man_n which_o do_v those_o thing_n shall_v live_v by_o they_o but_o the_o gospel-righteousnesse_n be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n vers_fw-la 6._o observe_v the_o apostle_n word_n well_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o law_n require_v do_v and_o work_v for_o justification_n according_a to_o the_o false_a gloss_n and_o interpretation_n of_o the_o pharisee_n as_o some_o writer_n of_o late_a with_o the_o papist_n of_o old_a have_v assert_v but_o moses_n describe_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n so_o 2_o lie_n he_o oppose_v the_o law_n and_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n rom._n 6.14_o sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o because_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n but_o under_o grace_n what_o sense_n can_v you_o make_v of_o these_o word_n if_o you_o shall_v assert_v the_o law_n to_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n for_o then_o this_o will_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o because_o you_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n or_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o under_o grace_n reas_n 2._o the_o apostle_n do_v affirm_v that_o no_o flesh_n shall_v be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n because_o by_o the_o law_n be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o sin_n rom._n 3.20_o but_o if_o the_o law_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n a_o man_n may_v be_v justify_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n reas_n 3._o the_o apostle_n affirm_v that_o if_o righteousness_n come_v by_o the_o law_n than_o christ_n be_v dead_a in_o vain_a and_o shall_v we_o say_v that_o that_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n by_o which_o righteousness_n can_v come_v unto_o we_o reas_n 4._o the_o apostle_n plain_o say_v that_o the_o law_n be_v not_o of_o faith_n but_o the_o man_n that_o do_v they_o shall_v live_v in_o they_o gal._n 3.12_o
