have_v give_v life_n very_o righteousness_n have_v be_v by_o a_o law_n therefore_o your_o new_a law_n be_v not_o give_v before_o paul_n time_n but_o the_o gospel_n be_v therefore_o the_o gospel_n be_v no_o law_n with_o sanction_n luther_n on_o this_o place_n say_v thus_o though_o those_o word_n of_o paul_n be_v never_o so_o plain_a yet_o the_o papist_n have_v this_o wicked_a gloss_n always_o ready_a that_o he_o speak_v only_o of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o paul_n speak_v plain_o and_o except_v no_o law_n whether_o moral_a or_o ceremonial_a or_o any_o other_o wherefore_o their_o gloss_n be_v not_o worth_a a_o rush_n and_o contrariwise_o we_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n whether_o man_n law_n or_o god_n law_n that_o give_v life_n therefore_o we_o put_v as_o great_a a_o difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o righteousness_n as_o between_o life_n and_o death_n between_o heaven_n and_o hell_n and_o the_o cause_n that_o move_v we_o so_o to_o affirm_v be_v that_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o law_n be_v not_o give_v to_o justify_v to_o give_v life_n and_o to_o save_v but_o only_o to_o kill_v and_o to_o destroy_v contrary_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o all_o man_n natural_o etc._n etc._n this_o difference_n of_o the_o office_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n keep_v all_o christian_a doctrine_n in_o its_o true_a and_o proper_a use_n this_o witness_n of_o luther_n i_o can_v set_v against_o all_o the_o testimony_n you_o bring_v from_o any_o whatever_o who_o hold_v or_o have_v hold_v the_o gospel_n a_o law_n with_o sanction_n as_o you_o do_v divers_a may_v speak_v of_o it_o under_o the_o term_n of_o a_o law_n of_o faith_n or_o understanding_n by_o law_n the_o precept_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o if_o they_o plead_v that_o the_o true_a and_o proper_a nature_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o law_n with_o sanction_n as_o you_o do_v i_o do_v renounce_v their_o opinion_n and_o do_v oppose_v they_o therein_o as_o i_o do_v you_o it_o be_v as_o such_o fundamental_o destructive_a to_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o whole_a nature_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o it_o and_o on_o gal._n 4.4_o christ_n be_v make_v under_o the_o law_n be_v not_o a_o lawgiver_n or_o a_o judge_n after_o the_o law_n but_o in_o that_o he_o make_v himself_o subject_a to_o the_o law_n he_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n thereof_o now_o whereas_o christ_n under_o the_o gospel_n give_v commandment_n and_o teach_v the_o law_n or_o expound_v it_o rather_o this_o pertain_v not_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n but_o of_o good_a work_n moreover_o it_o be_v not_o the_o proper_a office_n of_o christ_n for_o which_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o teach_v the_o law_n but_o accidental_a as_o it_o be_v to_o heal_v the_o weak_a etc._n etc._n wherefore_o the_o true_a proper_a office_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o wrestle_v with_o the_o law_n to_o conquer_v and_o abolish_v sin_n and_o death_n to_o deliver_v the_o faithful_a from_o the_o law_n and_o all_o evil_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o christ_n and_o a_o lawgiver_n that_o when_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o to_o trouble_v we_o under_o his_o name_n we_o may_v know_v he_o to_o be_v a_o very_a fiend_n christ_n be_v no_o moses_n he_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o infinite_a mercy_n free_o give_v on_o gal._n 2.20_o now_o as_o it_o be_v the_o great_a knowledge_n and_o cunning_a that_o christian_n have_v thus_o to_o define_v christ_n so_o of_o all_o thing_n it_o be_v hard_a i_o myself_o in_o this_o great_a light_n of_o the_o gospel_n wherein_o i_o have_v be_v so_o long_o exercise_v to_o hold_v the_o distinction_n of_o christ_n which_o paul_n give_v so_o deep_o have_v the_o doctrine_n and_o pestilent_a opinion_n that_o christ_n be_v a_o lawgiver_n enter_v into_o my_o bone_n you_o young_a man_n therefore_o be_v in_o a_o far_o happy_a condition_n for_o you_o be_v not_o insect_v with_o those_o pernicious_a error_n wherein_o i_o have_v be_v so_o muzzle_v and_o drown_v from_o my_o youth_n that_o at_o my_o hear_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n my_o heart_n have_v tremble_v and_o quake_v for_o fear_n for_o i_o be_v persuade_v that_o he_o be_v a_o severe_a judge_n wherefore_o it_o be_v to_o i_o a_o double_a trouble_n to_o correct_v and_o reform_v this_o evil_a 1._o to_o forget_v condemn_v and_o resist_v this_o old-grounded_n error_n that_o christ_n be_v a_o lawgiver_n and_o a_o judge_n 2._o to_o plant_v in_o my_o heart_n a_o new_a and_o true_a persuasion_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o be_v a_o justifier_n and_o a_o saviour_n you_o that_o be_v young_a may_v learn_v with_o much_o less_o difficulty_n to_o know_v christ_n pure_o and_o sincere_o if_o you_o will_n arg._n 8._o if_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o new_a law_n than_o we_o must_v have_v a_o double_a righteousness_n for_o our_o justification_n but_o we_o have_v not_o a_o double_a righteousness_n for_o our_o justification_n therefore_o the_o consequence_n be_v good_a 1._o from_o most_o of_o your_o concession_n that_o we_o have_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o which_o you_o call_v subordinate_a you_o shall_v rather_o have_v say_v as_o dr._n owen_n argue_v that_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v the_o subordinate_a it_o be_v in_o ordine_fw-la ad_fw-la in_o order_n to_o our_o justification_n by_o a_o new_a law_n mr._n b._n and_o other_o speak_v more_o distinct_o and_o say_v a_o legal_a and_o evangelical_a righteousness_n but_o in_o truth_n it_o must_v be_v two_o legal_a righteousness_n for_o 2._o there_o be_v no_o law_n but_o must_v have_v a_o peculiar_a distinct_a righteousness_n from_o that_o of_o any_o other_o law_n whereby_o a_o man_n under_o it_o must_v be_v justify_v and_o all_o the_o righteousness_n that_o serve_v for_o justification_n by_o another_o law_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v in_o our_o justification_n by_o the_o say_a law_n and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v two_o distinct_a righteousness_n and_o two_o distinct_a justification_n as_o there_o be_v two_o distinct_a law_n unless_o you_o say_v the_o old_a law_n be_v vacate_v which_o be_v a_o contradiction_n if_o you_o do_v but_o own_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o that_o law_n for_o righteousness_n to_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v and_o then_o it_o can_v be_v vacate_v for_o a_o law_n vacate_v and_o a_o law_n in_o force_n be_v a_o contradiction_n and_o a_o law_n fulfil_v to_o every_o jot_n and_o tittle_n to_o every_o believer_n remain_v in_o force_n therefore_o it_o remain_v that_o we_o have_v two_o righteousness_n for_o justification_n and_o both_o legal_a because_o all_o law-righteousness_n be_v legal_a christ_n single_a righteousness_n be_v indeed_o legal_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o law_n and_o evangelical_a in_o respect_n of_o sinner_n it_o be_v to_o they_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n so_o with_o we_o the_o same_o thing_n differ_v only_o respective_o 3._o there_o must_v be_v as_o distinct_a righteousness_n for_o
