obedience_n be_v not_o only_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o person_n covenant_v but_o also_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n here_o though_o it_o be_v still_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o person_n covenant_v for_o god_n have_v not_o lose_v his_o right_n of_o cluime_v nor_o god_n law_n her_o power_n of_o require_v perfect_a obedience_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n for_o the_o new_a testament_n promise_v life_n upon_o true_a faith_n which_o the_o old_a testament_n promise_v only_o upon_o full_a and_o perfect_a obedience_n and_o though_o it_o bid_v we_o obey_v as_o well_o as_o the_o old_a yet_o it_o annex_v not_o the_o conveyance_n of_o life_n upon_o our_o obey_v but_o upon_o our_o believe_v require_v our_o obedience_n as_o a_o duty_n of_o righteousness_n but_o not_o make_v it_o the_o condition_n of_o life_n and_o whereas_o you_o say_v the_o new_a testament_n be_v a_o conditional_a covenant_n bind_v we_o to_o do_v very_o many_o thing_n ourselves_o for_o obtain_v the_o promise_a inheritance_n i_o challenge_v you_o to_o name_v that_o one_o thing_n to_o which_o you_o dare_v annex_v your_o fac_n &_o vives_fw-la do_v this_o as_o you_o ought_v to_o do_v it_o and_o live_v upon_o do_v of_o which_o so_o exact_o and_o perfect_o as_o god_n law_n require_v you_o dare_v be_v so_o hardy_a as_o to_o venture_v your_o soul_n or_o so_o easy_a as_o to_o hazard_v your_o salvation_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o you_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o admit_v of_o a_o mitigation_n and_o pray_v god_n to_o accept_v of_o your_o serious_a endeavour_n instead_o of_o your_o exact_a performance_n and_o of_o your_o true_a repentance_n instead_o of_o your_o due_a obedience_n and_o of_o your_o saviour_n complete_a do_v it_o for_o you_o instead_o of_o your_o incomplete_a do_v it_o for_o yourself_o and_o then_o your_o fac_n &_o vives_n will_v be_v but_o our_o crede_fw-la &_o vives_n your_o do_v this_o and_o live_v will_v be_v but_o our_o believe_v in_o

condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v perfect_a obedience_n you_o must_v be_v content_v to_o lose_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v eternal_a salvation_n for_o yourself_o have_v approve_v that_o say_n which_o i_o think_v no_o divine_a be_v able_a to_o disprove_v a_o covenant_n do_v whole_o depend_v upon_o mutual_a condition_n which_o if_o either_o party_n fa●…l_o the_o

i_o find_v better_a condition_n in_o the_o testament_n proper_o so_o call_v than_o in_o the_o covenant_n and_o it_o be_v something_o strange_a you_o shall_v at_o the_o same_o time_n dislike_v my_o

as_o the_o trustee_n of_o god_n truth_n and_o of_o their_o neighbour_n soul_n lest_o they_o shall_v betray_v they_o both_o together_o not_o to_o clog_v christ_n covenant_n of_o salvation_n with_o
