the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n through_o faith_n upon_o all_o without_o difference_n who_o believe_v in_o two_o sermon_n on_o roman_n 3.22_o by_o nathaniel_n mather_n preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n

i_o be_v call_v to_o preach_v in_o that_o audience_n where_o these_o sermon_n be_v deliver_v i_o have_v some_o debate_n roll_v in_o my_o mind_n what_o kind_n of_o subject_n i_o shall_v pitch_v upon_o there_o be_v enough_o offer_v to_o my_o thought_n wherein_o i_o may_v have_v more_o gratify_v or_o at_o least_o have_v less_o displease_v our_o neonomian_o as_o they_o be_v late_o name_v but_o as_o true_o and_o just_o semisocinian_n as_o the_o ancient_a church_n and_o all_o posterity_n since_o have_v call_v the_o offspring_n of_o pelagius_n his_o heresy_n semipelagian_n but_o i_o see_v with_o grief_n and_o detestation_n the_o bless_a gospel_n of_o our_o salvation_n crafty_o and_o insolent_o assault_v by_o they_o in_o the_o very_a vital_n and_o fundamental_o of_o it_o in_o publico_fw-la

when_o the_o truth_n labour_v under_o guileful_a and_o impetuous_a opposition_n i_o doubt_v my_o quiet_n will_v be_v attempt_v and_o my_o doctrine_n and_o reputation_n will_v be_v angry_o reflect_v on_o as_o to_o the_o last_o though_o i_o value_v it_o and_o believe_v i_o ought_v to_o do_v so_o yet_o i_o can_v true_o say_v conviction_n that_o i_o ought_v to_o sacrifice_v both_o that_o and_o my_o quiet_n to_o the_o service_n of_o the_o labour_a truth_n of_o god_n have_v their_o weight_n with_o i_o my_o heart_n have_v be_v long_o fix_v in_o this_o principle_n that_o reputation_n be_v little_a to_o be_v value_v save_v only_o so_o far_o as_o it_o may_v be_v of_o service_n unto_o christ_n and_o if_o he_o have_v any_o use_n to_o make_v of_o it_o he_o will_v preserve_v it_o while_o i_o walk_v before_o he_o in_o integrity_n with_o he_o i_o have_v thus_o leave_v it_o and_o have_v so_o do_v my_o heart_n be_v secure_a and_o at_o rest_n about_o it_o as_o to_o my_o quiet_n i_o confess_v i_o do_v prize_n and_o love_v it_o as_o remember_v prov._n 17.14_o and_o 18.6_o but_o to_o maintain_v and_o preach_v that_o precious_a and_o save_v truth_n which_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n have_v be_v in_o possession_n of_o ever_o since_o the_o reformation_n be_v not_o enter_v into_o contention_n especial_o when_o some_o abandon_v it_o and_o other_o endeavour_v to_o wrest_v it_o from_o we_o and_o there_o be_v a_o contend_v and_o that_o earnest_o for_o the_o faith_n once_o deliver_v to_o the_o saint_n which_o be_v a_o duty_n beside_o i_o be_o not_o far_o from_o that_o place_n where_o the_o weary_a be_v at_o rest_n and_o the_o wicked_a cease_v from_o trouble_v the_o thought_n whereof_o i_o confess_v be_v sweet_a to_o i_o because_o i_o have_v very_o sadn_v apprehension_n of_o the_o
