to_o be_v overthrow_v for_o the_o name_n or_o title_n of_o any_o whatsoever_o be_v he_o a_o apostle_n or_o a_o angeil_n from_o heaven_n and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a argument_n that_o the_o false_a apostle_n use_v against_o paul_n the_o apostle_n say_v they_o be_v familiar_o conversant_a with_o christ_n for_o the_o space_n of_o three_o year_n they_o hear_v and_o see_v all_o his_o

by_o his_o death_n by_o his_o preach_n by_o his_o victory_n which_o he_o have_v obtain_v over_o the_o law_n sin_n and_o death_n and_o by_o send_v the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o must_v conclude_v therefore_o that_o either_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n or_o else_o that_o we_o be_v make_v sinner_n culpable_a and_o guilty_a through_o he_o but_o if_o the_o law_n do_v justify_v then_o can_v

church_n of_o god_n for_o they_o which_o do_v believe_v in_o christ_n be_v no_o sinner_n be_v not_o guilty_a of_o death_n but_o be_v holy_a and_o righteous_a lord_n over_o sin_n and_o death_n &_o live_v for_o ever_o but_o faith_n only_o see_v this_o for_o we_o say_v i_o believe_v a_o holy_a church_n but_o if_o thou_o believe_v reason_n and_o thine_o own_o eye_n thou_o will_v judge_v clean_o contrary_a for_o thou_o see_v many_o thing_n in_o the_o godly_a which_o offend_v thou_o godly_a thou_o see_v they_o sometime_o to_o fall_v into_o sin_n and_o to_o be_v weak_a in_o faith_n to_o be_v subject_a unto_o wrath_n envy_n and_o such_o other_o evil_a affection_n therefore_o the_o church_n be_v not_o holy_a i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n if_o i_o look_v upon_o my_o own_o person_n or_o the_o person_n of_o my_o brother_n it_o shall_v never_o be_v holy_a but_o if_o i_o behold_v christ_n who_o have_v sanctify_v and_o cleanse_v his_o church_n then_o be_v it_o altogether_o holy_a for_o he_o have_v take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n therefore_o where_o sin_n be_v see_v and_o feel_v there_o be_v they_o in_o deed_n no_o sin_n for_o according_a to_o paul_n divinity_n there_o be_v no_o sin_n no_o death_n no_o malediction_n any_o more_o in_o the_o world_n but_o in_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n that_o have_v take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n who_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n that_o he_o may_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n contrariwise_o according_a to_o philosophy_n and_o reason_n sin_n death_n and_o the_o curse_n be_v not_o where_o else_o but_o in_o the_o world_n in_o the_o flesh_n or_o in_o sinner_n for_o a_o sophistical_a divine_a can_v speak_v no_o otherwise_o of_o sin_n christ_n then_o do_v the_o heathen_a philosopher_n like_o as_o say_v he_o the_o colour_n stick_v in_o the_o wall_n even_o so_o do_v sin_n in_o the_o world_n in_o the_o flesh_n or_o in_o the_o conscience_n therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v purge_v by_o contrary_a operation_n to_o wit_n by_o charity_n but_o true_a divinity_n teach_v that_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n any_o more_o for_o christ_n upon_o who_o the_o father_n have_v cast_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n have_v vanquish_v and_o kill_v the_o same_o in_o his_o own_o body_n abolish_v he_o once_o die_v for_o sin_n and_o raise_v up_o again_o die_v now_o no_o more_o therefore_o whersoever_o be_v a_o true_a faith_n in_o christ_n there_o sin_n be_v abolish_v dead_a and_o bury_v in_o deed_n but_o where_o no_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v there_o sin_n do_v still_o remain_v saint_n and_o albeit_o the_o remnant_n of_o sin_n be_v as_o yet_o in_o the_o saint_n because_o they_o believe_v not_o perfect_o yet_o be_v they_o dead_a in_o that_o they_o be_v not_o impute_v unto_o they_o because_o of_o their_o faith_n in_o christ_n this_o be_v therefore_o a_o strong_a and_o a_o mighty_a argument_n which_o paul_n here_o prosecute_v against_o the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n law_n it_o be_v not_o the_o law_n nor_o work_n that_o do_v deliver_v we_o from_o the_o everlasting_a curse_n but_o christ_n alone_o see_v therefore_o good_a christian_a reader_n i_o beseech_v thou_o that_o thou_o distinguish_v christ_n from_o the_o law_n and_o diligent_o mark_v how_o paul_n speak_v and_o what_o he_o say_v all_o say_v he_o which_o do_v not_o fulfil_v the_o law_n be_v necessary_o under_o the_o curse_n but_o no_o man_n fulfil_v the_o law_n therefore_o all_o man_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n he_o add_v moreover_o a_o other_o proposition_n he_o christ_n have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o it_o follow_v then_o that_o the_o law_n and_o work_n do_v not_o redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n but_o do_v bring_v we_o rather_o under_o the_o curse_n charity_n therefore_o which_o as_o the_o schoolman_n say_v give_v form_n and_o perfection_n unto_o faith_n have_v not_o only_o not_o redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n but_o rather_o it_o wrap_v we_o more_o and_o more_o in_o the_o curse_n this_o text_n than_o be_v plain_a that_o all_o man_n yea_o the_o apostle_n prophet_n and_o patriarch_n have_v remain_v under_o the_o curse_n if_o christ_n have_v not_o set_v himself_o against_o sin_n death_n the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n the_o wrath_n and_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o overcome_v they_o in_o his_o own_o body_n for_o no_o power_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v overcome_v these_o huge_a and_o hideous_a monster_n but_o now_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o law_n or_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n but_o a_o divine_a and_o humane_a person_n which_o take_v upon_o he_o sin_n the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o law_n and_o death_n not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o we_o wherefore_o all_o the_o weight_n and_o force_n hereof_o consist_v in_o this_o word_n for_o us._n we_o must_v not_o they_o imagine_v christ_n to_o be_v innocent_a &_o as_o a_o private_a person_n as_o do_v the_o schoolman_n and_o almost_o all_o the_o father_n have_v do_v which_o be_v holy_a and_o righteous_a for_o himself_o only_o christ_n true_a it_o be_v in_o deed_n that_o christ_n be_v a_o person_n most_o pure_a and_o unspotted_a but_o thou_o must_v not_o stay_v there_o for_o thou_o have_v not_o yet_o christ_n although_o thou_o know_v he_o to_o be_v god_n and_o man_n but_o then_o thou_o have_v he_o in_o deed_n when_o thou_o believe_v that_o this_o most_o pure_a and_o innocent_a person_n be_v free_o give_v unto_o thou_o of_o the_o father_n to_o be_v thy_o high_a priest_n and_o saviover_n know_v yea_o rather_o thy_o servant_n that_o he_o put_v off_o his_o innocenty_n and_o holiness_n and_o take_v thy_o sinful_a person_n upon_o he_o may_v bear_v thy_o sin_n thy_o death_n and_o thy_o curse_n and_o may_v be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n and_o a_o curse_n for_o thou_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o may_v deliver_v thou_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n you_o see_v then_o with_o what_o a_o apostolic_a spirit_n paul_n handle_v this_o argument_n of_o the_o blessing_n and_o of_o the_o curse_n while_o he_o not_o only_o make_v christ_n subject_a to_o the_o curse_n but_o say_v also_o that_o he_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n so_o in_o the._n 2._o corrin_n 5._o he_o call_v he_o sin_n when_o he_o say_v he_o have_v make_v he_o to_o be_v sin_n for_o we_o which_o know_v no_o sin_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o 5.25_o and_o although_o these_o sentence_n may_v be_v well_o expound_v after_o this_o manner_n christ_n be_v make_v a_o curse_n that_o be_v to_o say_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o curse_n and_o sin_n that_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n us._n yet_o in_o my_o judgement_n it_o be_v better_a to_o keep_v the_o proper_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n because_o there_o be_v a_o great_a force_n and_o vehemency_n therein_o for_o when_o a_o sinner_n come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o in_o deed_n he_o feel_v not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v miserable_a but_o misery_n itself_o not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n &_o be_v accurse_v but_o even_o sin_n and_o malediction_n itself_o for_o it_o be_v in_o deed_n a_o great_a matter_n to_o bear_v sin_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n malediction_n and_o death_n wherefore_o that_o man_n which_o have_v a_o true_a feel_n of_o these_o thing_n as_o christ_n do_v true_o &_o effectual_o feel_v they_o for_o all_o mankind_n be_v make_v even_o sin_n death_n and_o malediction_n itself_o paul_n therefore_o handle_v this_o place_n with_o a_o true_a apostolical_a spirit_n there_o be_v neither_o sophister_n nor_o lawyer_n nor_o jew_n nor_o anabaptist_n nor_o any_o other_o that_o speak_v as_o he_o do_v for_o who_o dare_v allege_v this_o place_n out_o of_o moses_n accurse_v be_v every_o one_o that_o hang_v on_o tree_n and_o apply_v it_o unto_o christ_n like_a as_o paul_n then_o apply_v this_o sentence_n to_o christ_n even_o so_o may_v we_o apply_v unto_o christ_n not_o only_o that_o whole_a 27._o chap._n of_o deuteronomie_n but_o also_o may_v gather_v all_o the_o curse_n of_o moses_n law_n together_o and_o expound_v the_o same_o of_o christ_n for_o as_o
