persuade_v that_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v remit_v not_o because_o they_o do_v not_o deserve_v death_n but_o because_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n so_o that_o their_o sin_n be_v blot_v out_o by_o pardon_n and_o shall_v not_o be_v impute_v unto_o they_o neither_o do_v this_o place_n argue_v equality_n of_o sin_n as_o they_o dream_v though_o it_o make_v all_o sin_n worthy_a of_o condemnation_n or_o as_o they_o term_v it_o mortal_a for_o in_o deed_n they_o themselves_o say_v that_o the_o sin_n of_o ezechias_n david_n the_o ninivite_n peter_n and_o those_o that_o be_v convert_v at_o peter_n sermon_n be_v all_o mortal_a and_o yet_o some_o of_o they_o less_o than_o other_o but_o we_o see_v those_o sin_n not_o to_o have_v be_v take_v away_o by_o man_n power_n or_o policy_n but_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n who_o call_v they_o to_o repentance_n for_o ezechias_n be_v 38.1_o afraid_a of_o the_o message_n of_o death_n that_o he_o receive_v pray_v weep_v but_o look_v into_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o trust_v david_n confess_v his_o great_a sin_n in_o number_v the_o people_n but_o he_o say_v 24.10_o lord_n take_v away_o the_o iniquity_n of_o thy_o servant_n he_o do_v acknowledge_v the_o sin_n of_o adultery_n and_o manslaughter_n at_o the_o reprehension_n of_o nathan_n and_o 12.13.16_o cast_v himself_o down_o before_o the_o lord_n but_o in_o sure_a hope_n and_o steadfast_a faith_n the_o ninivite_n trouble_v with_o the_o fearful_a threaten_n of_o destruction_n 3.5_o put_v on_o sackcloth_v sprinkle_v their_o head_n with_o ash_n and_o pray_v hope_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v mercy_n and_o turn_v his_o sharp_a wrath_n from_o they_o yea_o peter_n himself_o weep_v 26.75_o bitter_o but_o cease_v not_o to_o hope_v and_o those_o which_o be_v strike_v at_o the_o sermon_n of_o peter_n only_o trust_v in_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o say_v to_o the_o apostle_n 2.37_o man_n and_o brethren_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o last_o part_n of_o this_o conclusion_n which_o be_v the_o regeneration_n of_o the_o spirit_n opiniones_fw-la wherein_o there_o be_v two_o dangerous_a opinion_n to_o be_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o one_o of_o those_o sail_v abroad_o in_o the_o sea_n of_o all_o ungodliness_n with_o the_o ship_n of_o their_o own_o filthy_a desire_n without_o safeconducte_a of_o god_n word_n promise_v unto_o themselves_o all_o manner_n of_o licentiousness_n because_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v free_o give_v and_o his_o righteousness_n bountiful_o bestow_v upon_o his_o elect_a the_o other_o be_v of_o they_o who_o mount_v aloft_o with_o the_o wax_a wing_n of_o their_o own_o invention_n like_z above_o the_o common_a use_n and_o custom_n of_o the_o life_n of_o god_n child_n challenge_v to_o themselves_o fantastical_a spirit_n of_o sincerity_n but_o as_o both_o these_o be_v most_o horrible_a so_o they_o which_o do_v either_o of_o they_o wrest_v the_o scripture_n be_v most_o ungodly_a and_o damnable_a unless_o they_o repent_v for_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o six_o chapter_n of_o this_o epistle_n see_v the_o ungodly_a to_o challenge_v unto_o themselves_o that_o liberty_n say_v that_o it_o be_v proper_a only_a to_o those_o which_o put_v one_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o be_v regenerate_v in_o spirit_n and_o have_v a_o pledge_n of_o this_o regeneration_n in_o their_o baptism_n but_o for_o other_o which_o cleave_v not_o to_o christ_n he_o promise_v the_o rigour_n of_o the_o law_n which_o overwhelm_v they_o with_o his_o curse_n do_v easy_o destroy_v they_o now_o as_o for_o those_o which_o will_v mount_v aloft_o in_o their_o feign_a sincerity_n because_o they_o study_v all_o that_o in_o they_o lie_v to_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n we_o be_v thus_o to_o persuade_v ourselves_o that_o to_o walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n be_v not_o to_o seek_v to_o put_v of_o all_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o to_o fly_v up_o into_o the_o middle_a heaven_n or_o altogether_o to_o separate_v ourselves_o from_o the_o company_n of_o the_o wicked_a for_o that_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n 5.10_o and_o therefore_o s._n paul_n willing_a we_o not_o to_o have_v any_o company_n with_o evil_a doer_n straight_a way_n expound_v himself_o say_v i_o mean_v not_o that_o you_o shall_v not_o at_o all_o company_n with_o they_o for_o than_o you_o shall_v go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o as_o i_o think_v this_o be_v the_o true_a sense_n of_o this_o scripture_n to_o walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n be_v to_o be_v conversant_a in_o beat_v down_o fleshe_o lust_n and_o to_o give_v token_n of_o our_o hatred_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o not_o yield_a to_o the_o former_a opinion_n to_o say_v thus_o unto_o our_o conscience_n i_o have_v often_o fall_v and_o sin_v grievous_o but_o the_o lord_n have_v receive_v i_o to_o grace_n he_o have_v graff_v i_o into_o the_o communion_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v bring_v i_o into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o church_n by_o baptism_n therefore_o as_o long_o as_o i_o go_v on_o forward_o in_o faith_n although_o sin_n seek_v to_o deal_v violent_o with_o i_o yet_o shall_v i_o be_v free_a from_o all_o guiltiness_n and_o damnation_n because_o i_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n yea_o i_o abhor_v all_o the_o lust_n and_o concupiscence_n of_o the_o flesh_n to_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o grace_n before_o conclude_v may_v be_v prove_v by_o good_a reason_n as_o if_o a_o man_n will_v allege_v work_n we_o may_v thus_o reply_v if_o salvation_n or_o justification_n be_v by_o work_n then_o either_o by_o perfect_a work_n or_o unperfect_a but_o not_o by_o unperfect_a work_n for_o every_o unperfect_a work_n be_v sin_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o be_v by_o work_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v by_o perfect_a work_n which_o no_o man_n be_v able_a to_o work_v but_o only_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o our_o work_n be_v account_v vile_a and_o of_o none_o effect_n i_o may_v reason_v against_o the_o blindness_n of_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n truth_n but_o it_o need_v not_o because_o it_o be_v here_o set_v down_o verse_n that_o only_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n give_v all_o thing_n set_v free_a and_o make_v bond_n give_v health_n and_o scourge_v with_o sickness_n for_o by_o these_o word_n the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n be_v understand_v the_o bountifulness_n and_o power_n of_o god_n spirit_n the_o power_n which_o bring_v we_o to_o a_o cast_v away_o of_o the_o relic_n of_o the_o old_a adam_n and_o put_v on_o of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o new_a man_n christ_n the_o bountifulness_n which_o as_o it_o grant_v pardon_v and_o abolish_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n in_o we_o set_v we_o free_a from_o the_o guiltiness_n of_o death_n so_o it_o grant_v unto_o we_o the_o holiness_n of_o christ_n which_o once_o impute_v do_v perfect_o and_o absolute_o finish_v the_o sanctification_n begone_v in_o us._n this_o which_o be_v hear_v call_v the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n be_v that_o spirit_n which_o be_v promise_v to_o be_v pour_v on_o the_o seed_n of_o man_n because_o man_n without_o the_o moist_a of_o this_o spirit_n be_v as_o a_o dry_a 44.3_o and_o barren_a land_n which_o spirit_n also_o be_v promise_v to_o be_v 2.25_o pour_v upon_o all_o flesh_n and_o be_v call_v the_o 36.25_o clean_a water_n which_o shall_v so_o reform_v and_o regenerate_v the_o elect_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v clean_a from_o all_o filthiness_n this_o be_v that_o spirit_n which_o be_v send_v 2.4_o upon_o the_o apostle_n and_o church_n of_o god._n now_o that_o this_o freedom_n be_v confirm_v to_o be_v do_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o by_o work_v let_v we_o see_v from_o what_o slavery_n it_o have_v free_v we_o true_o not_o as_o some_o think_v who_o because_o of_o this_o freedom_n say_v that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n set_v down_o in_o the_o ten_o commandment_n no_o my_o brethren_n that_o be_v a_o perilous_a doctrine_n wherefore_o i_o pray_v you_o beware_v of_o it_o for_o to_o be_v free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n be_v not_o to_o live_v as_o we_o list_v or_o to_o shake_v of_o the_o commandment_n together_o with_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o it_o be_v thus_o to_o be_v take_v that_o we_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v so_o confirm_v that_o the_o law_n of_o concupiscence_n be_v overcome_v by_o we_o that_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o under_o the_o yoke_n of_o our_o affection_n so_o that_o we_o have_v rule_n over_o our_o own_o will_n do_v seek_v now_o nothing_o in_o all_o our_o do_n but_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o
