A97232	Chonoyterion he Sion. The refinement of Zion: or, The old orthodox Protestant doctrine justified, and defended against several exceptions of the Antinomians, methodically digested into questions, wherein many weighty and important cases of conscience are handled, concerning the nature of faith and repentance, or conversion to God: of his eternal love, and beholding of sin in his dearest children: of justification from eternity, of of [sic] preparations to the acceptance of Christ, of prayer for pardon of sin, and turning to God: of the gospel covenant, aud [sic] tenders of salvation, on the termes of faith and repentance. For the establishment of the scrupulous, conviction of the erroneous, and consolation of distressed consciences. By Anthony Warton, minister of the word at Breamore in Hampshire.

out_o and_o that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n object_n what_o be_v this_o say_v these_o man_n but_o to_o teach_v and_o preach_v legal_o when_o you_o do_v thus_o tie_v man_n to_o condition_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o salvation_n as_o the_o law_n do_v answ_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o we_o shall_v be_v legal_a teacher_n if_o we_o do_v require_v of_o man_n the_o same_o condition_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o salvation_n and_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n that_o the_o law_n do_v but_o we_o be_v far_o from_o this_o for_o the_o law_n require_v perfect_a

of_o our_o salvation_n now_o we_o on_o the_o contrary_n do_v teach_v that_o we_o be_v save_v only_o and_o altogether_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n through_o the_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o we_o say_v that_o work_n be_v necessary_a to_o our_o justification_n at_o leastwise_o to_o the_o continuance_n of_o it_o after_o a_o far_o inferior_a manner_n that_o be_v

law_n require_v work_n as_o cause_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o salvation_n we_o require_v faith_n repentance_n and_o such_o work_n or_o duty_n as_o the_o gospel_n teach_v only_o as_o necessary_a condition_n without_o which_o we_o can_v be_v save_v for_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o the_o former_a question_n the_o gospel_n indeed_o offer_v salvation_n unto_o all_o by_o christ_n but_o not_o absolute_o but_o upon_o condition_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o repentance_n where_o faith_n therefore_o in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o repentance_n be_v want_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n or_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n which_o be_v the_o doctrine_n now_o teach_v by_o mr._n d_o mr._n s._n and_o many_o other_o whereas_o these_o man_n than_o do_v think_v that_o all_o condition_n be_v legal_a they_o be_v herein_o deceive_v for_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o that_o the_o one_o require_v condition_n to_o be_v perform_v and_o the_o other_o none_o at_o all_o which_o be_v it_o so_o than_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v a_o doctrine_n of_o licentiousness_n and_o carnal_a liberty_n but_o in_o this_o that_o the_o law_n offer_v salvation_n unto_o none_o but_o unto_o those_o that_o do_v perfect_o fulfil_v it_o without_o fail_v in_o any_o the_o least_o duty_n therein_o require_v and_o command_v but_o the_o gospel_n offer_v pardon_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o transgression_n unto_o all_o that_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o rise_v up_o out_o of_o their_o sin_n by_o repentance_n when_o they_o be_v fall_v and_o do_v not_o still_o lie_v in_o they_o thus_o the_o law_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n because_o it_o promise_v salvation_n to_o none_o but_o to_o those_o that_o do_v the_o work_v therein_o prescribe_v and_o command_v 10.8_o rom._n 10.8_o but_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o faith_n or_o as_o st._n paul_n call_v it_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n because_o it_o promise_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o salvation_n to_o all_o those_o that_o renounce_n themselves_o and_o their_o own_o work_n do_v rely_v only_o upon_o christ_n for_o salvation_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n of_o his_o gospel_n sect_n ii_o both_o repentance_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o good_a work_n be_v command_v and_o require_v in_o the_o gospel_n this_o that_o i_o have_v already_o say_v may_v be_v sufficient_a for_o a_o answer_n unto_o this_o question_n notwithstanding_o because_o many_o at_o this_o day_n by_o hear_v of_o our_o late_a new_a preacher_n and_o read_v of_o their_o book_n have_v their_o mind_n and_o understanding_n so_o vitiate_v and_o deprave_a that_o whensoever_o they_o hear_v we_o teach_v the_o necessity_n of_o repentance_n unto_o salvation_n or_o hear_v we_o press_v the_o practice_n and_o performance_n of_o good_a work_n upon_o man_n conscience_n present_o they_o think_v that_o we_o be_v enemy_n unto_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o do_v preach_v nothing_o but_o the_o law_n for_o so_o indeed_o some_o few_o year_n since_o when_o one_o hear_v i_o tell_v my_o hearer_n that_o as_o long_o as_o any_o one_o of_o they_o do_v live_v in_o sin_n and_o not_o practice_v repentance_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o he_o to_o believe_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o that_o he_o shall_v at_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n to_o judgement_n rise_v again_o in_o his_o own_o body_n to_o live_v eternal_o with_o christ_n after_o he_o be_v return_v home_o from_o the_o church_n he_o speak_v aloud_o in_o the_o hear_n of_o divers_a and_o say_v here_o be_v nothing_o but_o preach_v of_o the_o law_n preach_v of_o repentance_n repent_v and_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v repent_v and_o heaven_n gate_n shall_v be_v set_v open_a for_o you_o to_o the_o intent_n therefore_o that_o such_o poor_a seduce_a soul_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o see_v their_o error_n i_o will_v handle_v this_o matter_n a_o little_a more_o full_o first_o of_o all_o then_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o law_n require_v perfect_a obedience_n of_o we_o unto_o all_o the_o commandment_n thereof_o and_o will_v not_o accept_v of_o any_o

be_v say_v that_o he_o preach_v not_o the_o law_n but_o the_o gospel_n now_o it_o be_v manifest_a and_o evident_a also_o 1.15_o mar._n 1.15_o that_o all_o manner_n of_o good_a work_n which_o be_v

of_o we_o yea_o i_o will_v say_v more_o they_o be_v require_v as_o necessary_a to_o our_o eternal_a salvation_n in_o heaven_n though_o not_o by_o way_n of_o merit_n yet_o as_o a_o condition_n

prescribe_v and_o require_v work_n be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n as_o well_o as_o the_o law_n or_o how_o it_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o not_o unlikely_a some_o one_o or_o other_o will_v here_o say_v what_o difference_n be_v there_o then_o in_o this_o particular_a between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n if_o both_o do_v urge_v the_o necessity_n of_o good_a work_n or_o why_o be_v not_o the_o gospel_n to_o be_v call_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o not_o of_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o the_o law_n i_o will_v show_v you_o the_o reason_n hereof_o 1._o the_o law_n be_v call_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n because_o work_n be_v therein_o require_v as_o cause_n antecedent_n to_o our_o justification_n and_o salvation_n or_o as_o that_o whereby_o and_o for_o which_o we_o be_v to_o be_v justify_v now_o so_o be_v they_o not_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o have_v be_v sufficient_o show_v before_o 2._o again_o the_o law_n be_v also_o call_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n because_o work_n be_v therein_o command_v and_o require_v but_o no_o power_n nor_o ability_n be_v minister_v and_o give_v to_o perform_v they_o but_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n 3.8_o 2_o cor._n 3.8_o for_o it_o do_v not_o only_o command_v we_o to_o repent_v and_o to_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o repentance_n which_o be_v good_a work_n but_o show_v how_o we_o may_v be_v enable_v to_o do_v this_o to_o wit_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n who_o have_v merit_v not_o only_a forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n for_o all_o that_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o 3.14_o gal._n 3.14_o the_o gospel_n therefore_o be_v a_o covenant_n not_o of_o work_n but_o of_o grace_n not_o only_o because_o it_o teach_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v not_o of_o work_n but_o of_o grace_n but_o because_o by_o faith_n in_o the_o promise_n thereof_o we_o do_v obtain_v grace_n to_o repent_v and_o to_o do_v all_o those_o thing_n which_o it_o require_v of_o we_o last_o the_o gospel_n be_v true_o say_v to_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n because_o it_o be_v such_o a_o covenant_n as_o be_v not_o only_o begin_v and_o enter_v into_o but_o altogether_o ratify_v and_o consummate_v by_o grace_n for_o first_o it_o be_v mere_o and_o only_o of_o grace_n and_o mercy_n that_o god_n after_o we_o

be_v reveal_v in_o the_o gospel_n second_o as_o i_o say_v before_o it_o be_v mere_o of_o his_o grace_n that_o god_n enable_v we_o to_o perform_v the_o condition_n of_o this_o new_a covenant_n to_o wit_n faith_n and_o repentance_n which_o otherwise_o will_v become_v impossible_a unto_o we_o for_o we_o be_v as_o unable_a of_o ourselves_o to_o repent_v and_o believe_v in_o christ_n as_o we_o be_v to_o fulfil_v the_o whole_a law_n it_o be_v true_a faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v in_o themselves_o easy_a condition_n than_o the_o universal_a and_o most_o perfect_a obedience_n which_o the_o law_n require_v but_o otherwise_o as_o it_o be_v as_o impossible_a for_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a to_o lift_v up_o a_o straw_n as_o a_o ox_n so_o while_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o

i_o answer_v that_o see_v god_n glory_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o our_o own_o salvation_n therefore_o we_o ought_v both_o to_o desire_v and_o to_o endeavour_v be_v it_o possible_a to_o do_v
