you_o be_v sometime_o darkness_n but_o now_o be_v you_o light_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o indeed_o wherever_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n have_v its_o full_a effect_n and_o perfect_a work_n it_o make_v a_o mighty_a change_n both_o in_o their_o inward_a principle_n and_o outward_a practice_n it_o dart_v a_o new_a light_n into_o their_o mind_n so_o that_o they_o see_v thing_n otherwise_o than_o

on_o quite_o other_o design_n from_o what_o he_o do_v before_o and_o this_o be_v remarkable_o see_v in_o those_o who_o be_v reclaim_v from_o impiety_n and_o profaneness_n to_o religion_n and_o from_o a_o vicious_a to_o a_o virtuous_a course_n of_o life_n the_o change_n be_v great_a and_o real_a in_o all_o but_o not_o so_o sensible_a and_o visible_a in_o some_o as_o other_o in_o those_o who_o be_v

and_o raise_v up_o christ_n jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a two_o great_a and_o glorious_a instance_n of_o the_o divine_a power_n and_o to_o these_o the_o scripture_n frequent_o allude_v when_o it_o speak_v of_o this_o new_a creation_n god_n who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v into_o our_o heart_n like_a as_o christ_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n so_o we_o also_o be_v raise_v to_o newness_n of_o life_n say_v st._n paul_n rom._n 6._o 4._o and_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n the_o same_o apostle_n speak_v

power_n which_o he_o wrought_v in_o christ_n when_o he_o raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a so_o that_o our_o renovation_n and_o be_v make_v new_a creature_n be_v a_o instance_n of_o the_o same_o

after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v under_o the_o next_o head_n i_o shall_v now_o in_o the_o second_o place_n proceed_v to_o show_v that_o this_o metaphor_n of_o a_o new_a creation_n do_v not_o import_v what_o some_o man_n will_v extend_v it_o to_o so_o as_o to_o find_v doctrine_n of_o great_a consequence_n upon_o the_o single_a strength_n of_o this_o and_o other_o like_a

nor_o uncircumcision_n but_o a_o new_a creature_n in_o these_o word_n be_v contain_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o the_o gospel_n have_v take_v away_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o law_n have_v take_v away_o the_o sign_n of_o that_o covenant_n which_o be_v circumcision_n second_o that_o according_a to_o the_o term_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o christian_a religion_n nothing_o will_v avail_v to_o our_o justification_n and_o acceptance_n with_o god_n but_o the_o real_a renovation_n of_o our_o heart_n and_o life_n for_o the_o full_a explication_n of_o this_o i_o propound_v to_o do_v these_o three_o thing_n i._o to_o show_v what_o be_v imply_v in_o this_o phrase_n of_o a_o new_a creature_n ii_o that_o this_o be_v the_o great_a condition_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o

favour_n of_o god_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o of_o these_o viz._n to_o show_v what_o be_v imply_v in_o this_o phrase_n of_o a_o new_a creature_n as_o to_o which_o i_o show_v first_o what_o this_o metaphor_n do_v certain_o import_v so_o as_o to_o be_v undeniable_o evident_a from_o other_o more_o clear_a and_o full_a text_n of_o scripture_n namely_o the_o greatness_n of_o this_o change_n and_o that_o it_o be_v effect_v by_o a_o divine_a power_n i_o now_o proceed_v second_o to_o show_v that_o it_o do_v not_o import_v what_o some_o will_v extend_v it_o to_o and_o that_o so_o as_o to_o find_v doctrine_n of_o great_a consequence_n upon_o the_o mere_a and_o single_a strength_n of_o this_o and_o other_o like_a metaphor_n of_o scripture_n without_o any_o manner_n of_o countenance_n
