namely_o that_o like_a as_o we_o see_v paul_n himself_o to_o have_v stout_o despise_v the_o world_n so_o we_o also_o shall_v despise_v the_o devil_n the_o prince_n thereof_o with_o all_o his_o force_n deceit_n &_o hellish_a fury_n and_o so_o trust_v to_o the_o aid_n and_o help_v of_o christ_n shall_v triumph_v against_o he_o after_o this_o manner_n oh_o satan_n the_o more_o thou_o hurt_v and_o go_v about_o to_o hurt_v i_o the_o more_o proud_a and_o stout_a i_o be_o against_o thou_o and_o laugh_v thou_o to_o scorn_v the_o more_o thou_o terrify_v i_o and_o seek_v to_o bring_v i_o to_o

my_o lord_n and_o saviour_n christ_n who_o strength_n be_v make_v perfect_a in_o my_o weakness_n â—_o therefore_o when_o i_o be_o weak_a then_o be_o i_o strong_a on_o the_o contrary_a when_o he_o see_v his_o threaten_n and_o terror_n to_o be_v fear_v he_o rejoice_v &_o then_o he_o terrify_v more_o and_o more_o such_o as_o be_v terrify_v already_o verse_n 15._o for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n nor_o uncircumcision_n but_o a_o new_a creature_n this_o be_v a_o wonderful_a kind_n of_o speech_n which_o paul_n here_o use_v when_o he_o say_v neither_o circumcision_n nor_o uncircumcision_n prevail_v any_o thing_n it_o may_v seem_v that_o he_o shall_v rather_o have_v say_v either_o circumcision_n or_o uncircumcision_n avail_v somewhat_o see_v these_o be_v two_o contrary_a thing_n but_o now_o he_o deny_v that_o either_o the_o one_o or_o the_o outstretch_o do_v any_o thing_n avail_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v you_o must_v mount_v up_o high_a for_o circumcision_n and_o uncircumcision_n be_v thing_n of_o no_o such_o importance_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o obtain_v righteousness_n before_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o be_v contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o outstretch_o righteousness_n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o as_o touch_v christian_n righteousness_n which_o be_v not_o earthly_a but_o heavenly_a &_o therefore_o it_o consist_v not_o in_o corporal_a thing_n therefore_o whether_o thou_o be_v circumcise_v or_o uncircumcised_a it_o be_v all_o one_o thing_n for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o avail_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o the_o jew_n be_v great_o offend_v when_o they_o hear_v that_o circumcision_n avail_v nothing_o they_o easy_o grant_v the_o uncircumcision_n avail_v nothing_o but_o they_o can_v not_o abide_v to_o hear_v that_o so_o much_o shall_v be_v say_v of_o circumcision_n for_o they_o fight_v even_o unto_o blood_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o law_n &_o circumcision_n the_o papist_n also_o at_o this_o day_n do_v vehement_o contend_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o their_o tradition_n as_o touch_v the_o eat_v of_o flesh_n single_a life_n holy_a day_n &_o such_o other_o and_o they_o excommunicate_v &_o curse_v we_o which_o teach_v that_o in_o christ_n jesus_n these_o thing_n do_v nothing_o avail_v but_o paul_n say_v that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o other_o thing_n which_o be_v much_o more_o excellent_a &_o precious_a whereby_o we_o may_v obtain_v righteousness_n before_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n say_v he_o neither_o circumcision_n nor_o uncircumcision_n â—_o neither_o single_a life_n nor_o marriage_n neither_o meat_n nor_o fast_v do_v any_o whit_n avail_n meat_n make_v we_o not_o acceptable_a before_o god_n we_o be_v neither_o that_o better_a by_o abstain_v nor_o the_o worse_o by_o eat_v all_o these_o thing_n yea_o the_o whole_a world_n with_o all_o the_o law_n and_o righteousness_n thereof_o avail_v nothing_o to_o justification_n reason_n and_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o flesh_n do_v not_o understand_v this_o for_o it_o perceive_v not_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god._n 2.14_o therefore_o it_o will_v needs_o have_v righteousness_n to_o stand_v in_o outward_a thing_n but_o we_o be_v teach_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o under_o the_o son_n which_o avail_v unto_o righteousness_n before_o god_n but_o christ_n only_o salvation_n or_o as_o paul_n say_v here_o a_o new_a creature_n politic_a law_n man_n tradition_n ceremony_n of_o the_o church_n yea_o and_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n be_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v without_o christ_n therefore_o they_o avail_v not_o unto_o righteousness_n before_o god_n we_o may_v use_v they_o as_o thing_n both_o good_a and_o necessary_a but_o in_o their_o place_n and_o time_n but_o if_o we_o talk_v of_o the_o matter_n of_o justification_n they_o avail_v nothing_o but_o hurt_v very_o much_o and_o by_o these_o two_o thing_n circumcision_n &_o uncircumcision_n paul_n reject_v all_o other_o thing_n what_o so_o ever_o and_o deny_v that_o they_o avail_v any_o thing_n in_o christ_n jesus_n that_o be_v in_o the_o cause_n of_o faith_n and_o salvation_n for_o he_o take_v here_o a_o part_n for_o the_o whole_a that_o be_v jew_n by_o uncircumcision_n he_o understand_v all_o the_o gentile_n by_o circumcision_n all_o the_o jew_n with_o all_o their_o force_n and_o all_o their_o glory_n as_o if_o he_o say_v whatsoever_o the_o gentile_n can_v do_v with_o all_o their_o wisdom_n righteousness_n law_n power_n kingdom_n empire_n it_o avail_v nothing_o in_o christ_n jesus_n also_o whatsoever_o the_o jew_n be_v able_a to_o do_v with_o their_o moses_n their_o law_n their_o circumcision_n their_o worship_n their_o temple_n their_o kingdom_n and_o priesthood_n it_o nothing_o avail_v wherefore_o in_o christ_n jesus_n or_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o justification_n we_o must_v not_o dispute_v of_o the_o law_n either_o of_o the_o gentile_n or_o of_o the_o jew_n but_o we_o must_v simple_o pronounce_v that_o neither_o circumcision_n nor_o uncircumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n be_v the_o law_n then_o of_o no_o effect_n not_o so_o they_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a good_a albeit_o in_o their_o place_n and_o time_n that_o be_v in_o corporal_a and_o civil_a thing_n which_o without_o law_n can_v be_v guide_v moreover_o we_o use_v also_o in_o the_o church_n certain_a ceremony_n and_o law_n 14.40_o not_o that_o the_o keep_v of_o they_o avail_v unto_o righteousness_n but_o for_o good_a order_n example_n quietness_n &_o concord_n according_a to_o that_o say_n let_v all_o thing_n be_v do_v comely_a and_o orderly_a but_o if_o law_n be_v so_o set_v forth_o and_o urge_v as_o though_o the_o keep_v of_o they_o do_v justify_v a_o man_n or_o the_o break_n thereof_o do_v condemn_v he_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v take_v away_o and_o to_o be_v abolish_v for_o then_o christ_n lose_v his_o office_n and_o his_o glory_n 3.5_o who_o only_o justify_v we_o and_o give_v unto_o we_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o apostle_n therefore_o by_o these_o word_n plain_o affirm_v that_o neither_o circumcision_n nor_o uncircumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n but_o the_o new_a creature_n etc_n etc_n now_o since_o that_o neither_o the_o law_n of_o the_o gentile_n nor_o of_o the_o jew_n avail_v any_o thing_n the_o pope_n have_v do_v most_o wicked_o in_o that_o he_o have_v constrain_v man_n to_o keep_v his_o law_n with_o the_o opinion_n of_o righteousness_n creature_n now_o a_o new_a creature_n whereby_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v renew_v be_v not_o make_v by_o any_o colour_n or_o counterfeit_n of_o good_a work_n for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n avail_v any_o thing_n nor_o uncircumcision_n but_o by_o christ_n by_o who_o it_o be_v create_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n when_o work_n be_v do_v they_o bring_v in_o deed_n a_o new_a show_n and_o outward_a appearance_n wherewith_o the_o world_n &_o the_o flesh_n be_v delight_v but_o not_o a_o new_a creature_n for_o the_o

cleanse_v our_o heart_n by_o faith_n &_o work_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n love_n chastity_n and_o other_o christian_n virtue_n and_o give_v power_n to_o bridle_v the_o flesh_n &_o to_o reject_v the_o
