A20752	The Christian warfare wherein is first generally shewed the malice, power and politike stratagems of the spirituall ennemies of our saluation, Sathan and his assistants the world and the flesh, with the meanes also whereby the Christian may vvithstand and defeate them : and afterwards more speciallie their particvlar temptatiions, against the seuerall causes and meanes of our saluation, whereby on the one side they allure vs to security and presumption, and on the other side, draw vs to doubting and desperation, are expressed and answered : written especially for their sakes who are exercised in the spirituall conflict of temptations, and are afflicted in conscience in the sight and sense of their sinnes / by I.

the_o ceremony_n only_o to_o which_o again_o we_o reply_v that_o no_o such_o frivolous_a distinction_n can_v be_v gather_v out_o of_o the_o apostle_n word_n nay_o the_o plain_a contrary_n evident_o appear_v by_o his_o main_a scope_n and_o drift_n in_o his_o whole_a discourse_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o also_o by_o some_o particular_a place_n his_o chief_a scope_n be_v to_o beat_v down_o the_o pride_n of_o all_o both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o whole_a glory_n and_o praise_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o salvation_n may_v be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o free_a

the_o praise_n unto_o our_o own_o work_n and_o virtue_n so_o that_o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v only_o speak_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n man_n pride_n shall_v not_o be_v beat_v down_o neither_o shall_v god_n have_v the_o whole_a praise_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o so_o his_o discourse_n shall_v be_v vain_a as_o not_o tend_v to_o prove_v &_o enforce_v that_o for_o which_o

christ_n forasmuch_o as_o they_o do_v not_o nor_o do_v not_o neither_o be_v nor_o be_v bind_v to_o observe_v the_o ceremonial_a law_n &_o consequent_o can_v never_o once_o dream_v of_o obtain_v righteousness_n by_o fulfil_v the_o ceremony_n but_o they_o will_v rather_o ascribe_v the_o glory_n of_o their_o justification_n to_o their_o moral_a duty_n to_o which_o they_o find_v themselves_o bind_v by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n or_o do_v find_v themselves_o bind_v by_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o god_n write_v in_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v

in_o this_o discourse_n shall_v prove_v that_o they_o be_v not_o justify_v neither_o by_o observe_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n nor_o yet_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o god_n

not_o they_o alone_o but_o the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n also_o §_o sect._n 5_o but_o this_o may_v more_o manifest_o appear_v by_o particular_a place_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n plain_o show_v
