as_o a_o saviour_n be_v inconsistent_a with_o his_o state_n yet_o he_o have_v a_o principle_n and_o virtual_a power_n to_o have_v believe_v on_o christ_n as_o a_o saviour_n if_o god_n have_v require_v

yet_o that_o do_v not_o excuse_v we_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o unbelief_n that_o be_v one_o answer_n but_o 2._o though_o it_o be_v true_a believe_v on_o christ_n be_v not_o express_o require_v in_o

notwithstanding_o believe_v on_o christ_n be_v implicit_o require_v thus_o that_o when_o ever_o god_n shall_v reveal_v and_o make_v christ_n know_v to_o we_o when_o ever_o god_n shall_v command_v we_o to_o believe_v on_o christ_n this_o be_v require_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o first_o commandment_n to_o believe_v on_o christ_n though_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o that_o state_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v implicit_o require_v in_o the_o first_o commandment_n as_o to_o instance_n you_o know_v gospel-worship_n or_o the_o worship_n that_o god_n require_v now_o in_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o that_o worship_n that_o god_n require_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o notwithstanding_o gospel-worship_n be_v implicit_o require_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n now_o it_o be_v true_a gospel-worship_n be_v not_o express_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v virtual_o employ_v because_o we_o be_v bind_v by_o virtue_n of_o that_o commandment_n to_o worship_n god_n with_o that_o worship_n which_o god_n shall_v institute_v or_o appoint_v god_n have_v now_o appoint_v gospel-worship_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o second_o commandment_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o it_o now_o though_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o worship_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n so_o the_o four_o commandment_n require_v that_o we_o shall_v keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n the_o express_a letter_n of_o the_o

to_o believe_v any_o time_n afterward_o so_o that_o now_o if_o our_o believe_v on_o christ_n be_v require_v in_o the_o first_o commandment_n than_o unbelief_n be_v a_o transgression_n of_o the_o

of_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o gospel_n not_o only_o a_o transgression_n of_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o law_n but_o it_o be_v a_o transgression_n of_o the_o great_a commandment_n of_o the_o gospel_n brethren_n the_o gospel_n be_v a_o law_n it_o be_v call_v the_o law_n of_o faith_n rom._n 2.27_o where_o then_o be_v boast_v it_o be_v exclude_v by_o what_o law_n of_o work_n nay_o

and_o therefore_o faith_n be_v call_v the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n rom._n 16.26_o but_o now_o be_v it_o make_v manifest_a by_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o prophet_n according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o everlasting_a god_n make_v know_v to_o all_o nation_n for_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v that_o the_o nation_n shall_v believe_v on_o christ_n and_o so_o yield_v obedience_n to_o the_o gospel_n by_o believe_v it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o now_o not_o believe_v on_o christ_n be_v a_o transgression_n of_o a_o gospel_n command_n where_o do_v the_o gospel_n command_v our_o believe_v on_o christ_n express_o why_o every_o where_o to_o name_v but_o a_o place_n or_o two_o john_n 6.29_o say_v christ_n this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n that_o you_o believe_v on_o he_o who_o he_o have_v send_v this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n not_o only_o the_o work_n that_o god_n work_v in_o we_o that_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n but_o this_o be_v the_o work_n that_o god_n require_v and_o command_v the_o special_a work_n and_o duty_n that_o god_n require_v that_o you_o shall_v believe_v on_o the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n and_o you_o have_v a_o more_o express_a place_n 1_o john_n 3.23_o this_o be_v his_o commandment_n that_o you_o believe_v on_o the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v the_o great_a commandment_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o we_o shall_v believe_v on_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o now_o not_o to_o believe_v on_o christ_n be_v command_v in_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o transgression_n of_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o transgression_n of_o a_o gospel_n command_n be_v a_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o any_o transgression_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n now_o believe_v on_o christ_n be_v express_o require_v in_o the_o gospel_n unbelief_n be_v a_o transgression_n of_o the_o command_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o second_o demonstration_n 3._o not_o believe_v on_o christ_n appear_v to_o be_v a_o sin_n though_o we_o make_v nothing_o of_o it_o because_o god_n do_v inflict_v punishment_n for_o not_o believe_v on_o christ_n god_n do_v punish_v man_n for_o not_o believe_v on_o christ_n now_o god_n do_v never_o inflict_v punishment_n for_o that_o which_o be_v no_o sin_n punishment_n proper_o be_v the_o consequent_a and_o effect_n of_o sin_n where_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o punishment_n therefore_o when_o god_n take_v away_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n in_o justification_n then_o god_n pardon_v a_o soul_n the_o soul_n be_v free_a from_o all_o punishment_n for_o sin_n there_o be_v therefore_o no_o condemnation_n no_o real_a punishment_n for_o sin_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n now_o than_o that_o god_n do_v punish_v for_o unbelief_n though_o not_o total_a unbelief_n it_o be_v apparent_a you_o know_v moses_n be_v punish_v for_o not_o believe_v and_o honour_v of_o god_n by_o believe_v at_o the_o water_n meriba_n numb_a 20.12_o and_o the_o lord_n speak_v unto_o moses_n and_o aaron_n because_o you_o believe_v i_o not_o to_o sanctify_v i_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n therefore_o you_o shall_v not_o bring_v this_o congregation_n into_o the_o land_n which_o i_o have_v give_v they_o moses_n plead_v hard_o with_o god_n that_o he_o may_v go_v over_o and_o see_v the_o good_a land_n say_v the_o lord_n speak_v no_o more_o of_o it_o i_o will_v not_o hear_v you_o in_o this_o thing_n you_o shall_v see_v it_o indeed_o but_o you_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o it_o because_o you_o do_v not_o honour_v i_o by_o believe_v god_n punish_v unbelief_n and_o therefore_o unbelief_n must_v be_v a_o sin_n and_o so_o the_o israelite_n for_o their_o unbelief_n god_n do_v punish_v they_o psal_n 78.32_o 33._o for_o all_o this_o they_o sin_v still_o and_o believe_v not_o for_o his_o wondrous_a work_n and_o what_o follow_v therefore_o their_o day_n do_v he_o consume_v in_o vanity_n and_o their_o year_n in_o trouble_n therefore_o god_n punish_v they_o for_o their_o
