A90678	The Gospel nevv-creature; wherein the work of the spirit is opened, in awakening the soul; to the getting pardon of sin, and an interest in Jesus Christ; without which, it is undone to all eternity. Discovering the false refuges, and vain hopes for heaven, of ignorant and formal professors in this nation, tending to rouze them out of their carnal security, before it be too late. Whereunto is added, (by way of comfort, to all dejected soules) the tempestuous soul calmed by Jesus Christ. / By A. Palmer, preacher of the Gospel at Bourton on the Water in Gloucester-shire.	Palmer, Anthony, 1618?-1679.; Palmer, Anthony, 1618?-1679. Tempestuous soul calmed.	1658 (1658)	Wing P216; Thomason E1826_2; Thomason E1826_3; ESTC R209826	155,076	274

this_o snare_n many_o of_o the_o jewish_a professor_n of_o christ_n fall_v short_a as_o it_o be_v clear_a from_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o galathian_o and_o do_v frustrate_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n 3._o a_o sinner_n have_v a_o secret_a thought_n of_o make_v god_n satisfaction_n by_o his_o sorrow_n and_o amendment_n and_o so_o make_v void_a the_o freegrace_n of_o god_n it_o be_v the_o easy_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n to_o put_v up_o legal_a sorrow_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n to_o god_n as_o that_o which_o may_v make_v god_n amends_o yea_o to_o make_v a_o atonement_n of_o every_o duty_n which_o be_v the_o close_a and_o most_o desperate_a evil_n of_o the_o heart_n so_o do_v the_o jew_n by_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o obedience_n which_o cause_v the_o lord_n to_o pronounce_v of_o

nothing_o but_o sin_n upon_o he_o and_o so_o stoop_v to_o free_a mercy_n 5._o the_o sinner_n stand_v off_o from_o freegrace_n because_o he_o will_v make_v his_o own_o term_n he_o will_v condition_n
