of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o leave_v we_o these_o to_o guide_v their_o conversation_n by_o what_o they_o please_v yet_o we_o that_o intend_v to_o be_v such_o christian_n as_o the_o gospel_n require_v be_v oblige_v to_o make_v the_o write_v law_n of_o god_n the_o chief_a and_o principal_a rule_n of_o our_o conversation_n and_o that_o upon_o these_o three_o reason_n first_o because_o of_o the_o undoubted_a perfection_n and_o infallible_a truth_n that_o belong_v to_o they_o for_o they_o be_v law_n and_o rule_n without_o any_o flaw_n and_o error_n which_o can_v possible_o deceive_v or_o misguide_v we_o because_o so_o true_a and_o perfect_a as_o to_o exclude_v the_o most_o critical_a correction_n and_o addition_n whereas_o the_o law_n of_o man_n though_o never_o so_o exact_o weigh_v at_o first_o in_o the_o balance_n of_o the_o most_o consider_v judgement_n and_o make_v with_o the_o great_a foresight_n and_o circumspection_n will_v in_o a_o few_o year_n appear_v so_o weak_a and_o imperfect_a fallible_a and_o erroneous_a that_o no_o one_o can_v walk_v by_o they_o without_o fear_n uncertainty_n and_o danger_n but_o the_o law_n in_o the_o gospel_n because_o compose_v by_o a_o divine_a wisdom_n be_v so_o sound_a and_o perfect_a and_o free_a from_o fault_n that_o no_o one_o can_v live_v by_o they_o but_o he_o walk_v with_o all_o courage_n and_o safety_n so_o that_o he_o who_o govern_v his_o conversation_n by_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n need_v not_o doubt_n or_o fear_v his_o do_v ill_a or_o amiss_o for_o in_o such_o way_n as_o the_o law_n of_o god_n every_o man_n say_v solomon_n walk_v safe_o or_o as_o the_o original_a confident_o and_o secure_o prov._n 3._o 23._o second_o we_o have_v just_a reason_n to_o make_v the_o law_n in_o the_o gospel_n the_o sole_a rule_n of_o our_o conversation_n because_o of_o their_o universal_a benefit_n and_o goodness_n for_o though_o law_n by_o some_o man_n may_v be_v count_v evil_a and_o perjudicial_a because_o they_o lay_v rigour_n and_o restraint_n upon_o that_o belove_a darling_a thing_n call_v liberty_n yet_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n contain_v in_o the_o gospel_n be_v so_o easy_a and_o pleasant_a profitable_a and_o advantageous_a to_o man_n that_o there_o be_v no_o discreet_a or_o prudent_a person_n but_o will_v have_v choose_v and_o take_v such_o a_o method_n to_o live_v by_o can_v he_o have_v have_v the_o wisdom_n and_o judgement_n to_o have_v find_v it_o out_o nor_o do_v the_o goodness_n and_o benefit_n of_o these_o law_n give_v they_o a_o reputation_n but_o the_o universality_n of_o their_o goodness_n swell_v their_o character_n for_o let_v these_o law_n be_v put_v in_o use_n and_o practice_n in_o any_o corner_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o by_o man_n of_o all_o climate_n and_o country_n and_o they_o will_v be_v continual_o find_v beneficial_a to_o bodily_a health_n preserver_n of_o man_n credit_n and_o reputation_n encourager_n of_o industry_n and_o faithfulness_n distributer_n of_o

our_o temporal_a felicity_n and_o what_o nation_n be_v there_o though_o heathenish_a and_o barbarous_a that_o can_v possible_o complain_v of_o mischief_n and_o prejudice_n shall_v they_o govern_v themselves_o by_o these_o reveal_v statute_n law_n of_o heaven_n three_o we_o ought_v only_o to_o guide_v our_o conversation_n by_o these_o because_o of_o their_o perpetual_a fitness_n and_o everlasting_a equity_n the_o law_n compose_v and_o enact_v by_o man_n be_v right_o call_v temporary_a because_o they_o be_v but_o for_o certain_a time_n and_o season_n for_o these_o like_o all_o humane_a government_n and_o life_n have_v their_o certain_a stage_n and_o fix_a period_n and_o be_v bear_v and_o live_v grow_v old_a and_o die_v we_o ourselves_o can_v observe_v and_o see_v that_o those_o act_n and_o statute_n which_o be_v good_a and_o useful_a convenient_a and_o necessary_a for_o one_o age_n become_v weak_a and_o foolish_a and_o very_o fit_a to_o be_v repeal_v and_o abrogate_a in_o the_o next_o nor_o have_v any_o the_o result_v and_o decree_n of_o the_o grave_a council_n in_o the_o great_a nation_n be_v of_o any_o long_a duration_n but_o such_o as_o be_v either_o ground_v upon_o or_o derive_v from_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n for_o such_o be_v the_o everlasting_a justice_n and_o righteousness_n of_o our_o gospel_n law_n that_o they_o will_v never_o grow_v old_a or_o out_o of_o use_n as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n endure_v for_o man_n in_o all_o age_n and_o in_o all_o country_n will_v constant_o find_v it_o fit_a and_o just_a and_o reasonable_a to_o live_v by_o they_o and_o in_o this_o sense_n perhaps_o it_o be_v to_o be_v take_v sometime_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v for_o ever_o that_o be_v the_o law_n and_o precept_n contain_v in_o it_o be_v so_o well_o order_v temper_a and_o prepare_v that_o they_o will_v last_v for_o ever_o and_o be_v find_v fit_a and_o reasonable_a to_o be_v observe_v by_o all_o man_n at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o truth_n and_o perfection_n the_o universal_a goodness_n and_o perpetual_a fitness_n of_o these_o sacred_a rule_n we_o may_v reasonable_o conclude_v there_o be_v no_o such_o guide_n for_o our_o conversation_n as_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o s._n paul_n do_v wise_o advise_v his_o philippian_n and_o all_o christian_n to_o be_v principal_o careful_a in_o let_v their_o conversation_n only_o be_v as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o three_o particular_a which_o be_v to_o show_v wherein_o the_o agreeableness_n of_o a_o man_n conversation_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n do_v consist_v in_o these_o two_o general_n thing_n first_o in_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o purity_n and_o holiness_n second_o in_o the_o exercise_n of_o meekness_n and_o moderation_n and_o whatever_o promote_v unity_n peace_n and_o charity_n with_o all_o man_n first_o in_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o purity_n and_o holiness_n and_o indeed_o we_o can_v not_o well_o expect_v that_o the_o design_n of_o christianity_n shall_v tend_v to_o any_o thing_n else_o because_o the_o author_n of_o that_o religion_n be_v himself_o a_o person_n that_o know_v no_o sin_n and_o lead_v a_o most_o exemplary_a life_n in_o all_o the_o path_n of_o piety_n and_o virtue_n and_o because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o prepare_v all_o man_n heart_n to_o receive_v the_o gospel_n by_o a_o lively_a faith_n be_v a_o pure_a and_o undefiled_a spirit_n and_o if_o we_o will_v also_o but_o consult_v what_o be_v partly_o speak_v by_o christ_n himself_o and_o partly_o dictate_v by_o this_o holy_a spirit_n we_o shall_v easy_o see_v that_o a_o good_a and_o holy_a life_n be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o the_o content_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o first_o of_o all_o it_o command_v we_o to_o abstain_v from_o all_o appearance_n of_o evil_n to_o withdraw_v from_o the_o first_o courtship_n of_o sin_n for_o it_o lay_v restraint_n upon_o our_o mind_n thought_n and_o lust_n after_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v vile_a and_o wicked_a and_o assure_v we_o that_o we_o be_v defile_v if_o sin_n be_v but_o conceive_v in_o the_o heart_n though_o it_o be_v not_o bring_v forth_o into_o act_n as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o bare_a lust_a after_o a_o woman_n and_o of_o harbour_v malice_n and_o revenge_n but_o in_o the_o inward_a thought_n and_o intention_n second_o it_o do_v positive_o prohibit_v and_o that_o under_o severe_a penalty_n all_o and_o every_o action_n that_o render_v a_o man_n conversation_n vile_a and_o odious_a base_a and_o scandalous_a mean_a and_o contemptible_a namely_o all_o carnal_a uncleanness_n surfeiting_n drunkenness_n swear_v curse_v lie_v perjury_n bribery_n oppression_n cozenage_n and_o fraud_n sloth_n and_o idleness_n irreligion_n and_o profaneness_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o gospel_n will_v have_v we_o to_o abstain_v from_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v that_o our_o god_n and_o creator_n may_v not_o be_v dishonour_v and_o that_o his_o and_o our_o enemy_n may_v not_o have_v occasion_n to_o blaspheme_v we_o and_o our_o most_o excellent_a religion_n three_o it_o press_v upon_o we_o the_o conscientious_a practice_n of_o every_o grace_n and_o virtue_n and_o to_o adorn_v our_o profession_n and_o outward_a conversation_n with_o the_o flower_n and_o fruit_n of_o good_a work_n this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n say_v s._n paul_n our_o sanctification_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n which_o have_v appear_v and_o bring_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n teach_v we_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v righteous_o sober_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a
