you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o be_v receyve_v full_o into_o
thus_o furthermore_o when_o the_o wicked_a sort_n which_o set_v their_o tongue_n to_o sale_n like_o harlot_n in_o a_o brothelhouse_n and_o cast_v out_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n and_o his_o word_n

we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o how_o every_o of_o we_o ought_v to_o behave_v himself_o insomuch_o that_o the_o prophet_n esay_n speak_v of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n 4._o say_v that_o the_o

can_v that_o it_o may_v be_v so_o howbeit_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v humble_v and_o that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v stumblingblock_n and_o comberance_n and_o it_o can_v be_v but_o that_o jesus_n christ_n must_v reign_v in_o the_o mid_n of_o his_o enemy_n let_v we_o go_v forward_o and_o defy_v all_o satan_n practice_n and_o not_o mislike_v of_o the_o gospel_n for_o

when_o they_o be_v put_v into_o the_o balance_n together_o howbeit_o before_o we_o go_v any_o further_a let_v we_o first_o note_n that_o in_o this_o word_n cut_v off_o s._n paul_n have_v speak_v by_o a_o similitude_n for_o those_o rascal_n that_o have_v corrupt_v and_o falsify_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n strive_v for_o circumcizion_n well_o then_o say_v he_o pare_v off_o and_o cut_v

they_o may_v not_o have_v any_o hope_n of_o salvation_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v i_o tell_v you_o short_o that_o when_o man_n make_v war_n against_o god_n we_o

〈◊〉_d truth_n too_o be_v untoo_o we_o moreover_o see_v that_o he_o do_v so_o join_v his_o glory_n with_o our_o welfare_n as_o we_o can_v procure_v the_o one_o without_o the_o other_o yea_o and_o that_o we_o can_v neither_o profit_v he_o nor_o disprofite_n he_o though_o we_o be_v never_o so_o zealous_a to_o maintain_v his_o quarrel_n for_o he_o have_v no_o need_n of_o we_o neither_o need_v

not_o of_o this_o world_n nor_o in_o these_o corruptible_a thing_n but_o in_o the_o everlasting_a salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n see_v i_o say_v that_o god_n employ_v we_o after_o such_o sort_n and_o we_o notwithstanding_o be_v still_o reckless_a and_o cold_a be_v this_o treachery_n of_o we_o excusable_a nay_o we_o must_v come_v to_o that_o which_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n 10._o the_o zeal_n of_o thy_o house_n have_v eat_v i_o up_o and_o the_o railing_n of_o they_o that_o rail_v on_o thou_o i_o have_v take_v to_o myself_o certes_o this_o be_v full_o accomplish_v in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o in_o the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o saint_n paul_n show_v that_o we_o must_v be_v fashion_v like_o unto_o he_o as_o our_o pattern_n so_o that_o whensoever_o we_o see_v god_n honour_n deface_v by_o man_n every_o of_o we_o must_v set_v himself_o manful_o against_o it_o thus_o you_o see_v brief_o that_o the_o rule_n which_o we_o must_v gather_v here_o be_v that_o we_o must_v prefer_v god_n honour_n before_o all_o thing_n yea_o even_o before_o a_o whole_a million_o of_o life_n if_o we_o have_v they_o then_o be_v it_o not_o for_o we_o to_o spare_v man_n when_o they_o streyne_v themselves_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n to_o trample_v god_n name_n under_o foot_n to_o turmoyl_v the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n to_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o may_v no_o more_o know_v what_o religion_n to_o stick_v untoo_o and_o to_o drive_v away_o all_o peace_n utter_o out_o of_o the_o church_n therefore_o if_o we_o see_v man_n apply_v their_o indever_n that_o way_n be_v it_o not_o reason_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v their_o adversary_n 18_o true_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a we_o must_v procure_v friendship_n and_o agreement_n with_o all_o man_n yea_o on_o our_o own_o behalf_n and_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o lie_v in_o we_o say_v saint_n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n but_o when_o we_o see_v these_o naughtipacke_n advance_v themselves_o against_o god_n and_o thrust_v forth_o their_o horn_n too_o doss_n at_o he_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v step_v forward_o and_o show_v in_o deed_n that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o our_o own_o man_n but_o that_o for_o as_o much_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v buy_v and_o pay_v for_o we_o so_o dear_o he_o ought_v of_o right_a to_o be_v lord_n both_o of_o our_o life_n and_o of_o our_o death_n you_o see_v then_o why_o saint_n paul_n make_v here_o so_o sharp_a a_o wish_n name_o that_o they_o which_o have_v trouble_v the_o galathians_n may_v be_v utter_o alienate_v from_o god_n and_o drown_v in_o the_o gulf_n of_o damnation_n now_o if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o this_o wish_n be_v against_o the_o rule_n of_o charity_n the_o answer_n be_v easy_a enough_o for_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o love_v our_o enemy_n yea_o though_o they_o persecute_v &_o vex_v we_o and_o although_o they_o seek_v nothing_o but_o our_o destruction_n yet_o must_v we_o procure_v their_o welfare_n &_o salvation_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o our_o power_n and_o we_o must_v have_v pity_n &_o compassion_n of_o they_o to_o see_v they_o so_o give_v over_o unto_o satan_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o charity_n import_v but_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o god_n must_v be_v above_o all_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o therefore_o charity_n be_v between_o man_n and_o man_n when_o any_o man_n shall_v have_v do_v i_o wrong_n i_o must_v forget_v it_o though_o he_o bear_v i_o malice_n yet_o must_v i_o procure_v his_o welfare_n but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o maynteyn_v of_o god_n quarrel_n there_o man_n must_v be_v esteem_v less_o than_o nothing_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o
the_o wash_n of_o they_o away_o which_o be_v do_v by_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n you_o see_v then_o that_o our_o righteousness_n be_v that_o god_n accept_v we_o

unto_o god_n they_o be_v wretched_a carcase_n full_a of_o rottenness_n but_o when_o they_o dye_v in_o themselves_o they_o live_v untoo_o god_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n saint_n paul_n in_o the_o

here_o too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v hold_v out_o with_o invincible_a constancy_n against_o all_o the_o stop_n that_o satan_n labour_v too_o lay_v afore_o we_o to_o hinder_v we_o from_o keep_v on_o

be_v in_o any_o peril_n or_o be_v persecute_v so_o as_o they_o have_v many_o wrong_n and_o injury_n do_v they_o and_o yet_o be_v not_o succour_v of_o all_o that_o while_n 8_o they_o may_v think_v

a_o while_n too_o the_o end_n too_o set_v we_o free_a and_o clear_a and_o too_o purchase_v we_o grace_n before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n his_o father_n shall_v that_o do_n of_o his_o bee_n

the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v suffer_v in_o vain_a then_o see_v we_o now_o why_o saint_n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o live_v by_o faith_n for_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v settle_v upon_o the_o

and_o heavenly_a power_n 4_o as_o be_v say_v of_o he_o in_o another_o text._n and_o therefore_o when_o there_o be_v any_o speak_n of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n too_o consider_v what_o the_o same_o import_v that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o make_v a_o atonement_n of_o reconciliation_n between_o god_n &_o man_n a_o

that_o there_o be_v such_o power_n in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o that_o thereupon_o we_o march_v further_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n too_o the_o glory_n whereuntoo_o it_o lead_v we_o let_v we_o not_o any_o more_o imagine_v that_o man_n ought_v hereafter_o to_o continue_v still_o in_o his_o own_o nature_n but_o that_o he_o ought_v too_o live_v in_o

whereunto_o we_o shall_v refer_v this_o say_n where_o saint_n paul_n tell_v
from_o the_o rightuousnesse_n of_o faith_n be_v too_o show_v that_o they_o be_v unmatchable_a and_o can_v no_o more_o be_v join_v together_o than_o fire_n and_o water_n true_a it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n betwixt_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o for_o we_o know_v that_o both_o twain_o of_o they_o do_v come_v of_o god_n but_o here_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o take_v god_n meen_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o declare_v it_o to_o we_o which_o be_v that_o by_o set_v the_o rightuousnesse_n of_o the_o law_n before_o we_o he_o intend_v to_o humble_v

although_o such_o manner_n of_o man_n do_v seek_v unto_o god_n yet_o do_v they_o set_v the_o cart_n before_o the_o horse_n for_o they_o ought_v to_o set_v god_n love_n in_o the_o first_o &_o chief_a

now_o such_o manner_n of_o prosperity_n may_v as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o be_v well_o wish_v for_o but_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o the_o only_a goodness_n of_o god_n must_v be_v our_o

content_v with_o this_o that_o god_n accept_v us._n and_o therewithal_o he_o set_v down_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o god_n shall_v favour_v we_o but_o for_o his_o own_o son_n sake_n in_o who_o be_v his_o whole_a delight_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v 6._o as_o well_o in_o the._n xuj_o chapter_n of_o s._n matthew_n as_o in_o the_o first_o too_o the_o ephesian_n then_o if_o we_o have_v nothing_o else_o to_o set_v before_o our_o eye_n but_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n it_o will_v make_v we_o afraid_a and_o we_o can_v not_o

and_o to_o enjoy_v all_o the_o benefit_n which_o he_o bestow_v upon_o we_o for_o they_o belong_v not_o to_o any_o other_o than_o to_o his_o own_o only_a son_n who_o be_v the_o heir_n of_o all_o

it_o be_v certain_a that_o nothing_o put_v we_o out_o of_o god_n favour_n but_o our_o own_o sinfulness_n for_o we_o see_v that_o his_o mercy_n extend_v itself_o even_o to_o the_o sparowe_n that_o

yea_o and_o utter_o fall_v away_o from_o he_o but_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o worse_a thing_n than_o that_o namely_o that_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v thereby_o disannul_v because_o man_n do_v always_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o deserve_v and_o earn_v righteousness_n before_o god_n to_o be_v in_o his_o favour_n for_o their_o serve_v of_o he_o and_o so_o when_o these_o deceiver_n have_v bring_v in_o the_o say_a error_n that_o man_n ought_v to_o keep_v the_o old_a forworne_a figure_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o have_v threaped_a a_o meritorious_a service_n upon_o god_n whether_o he_o will_v or_o no._n but_o our_o salvation_n must_v be_v of_o free_a gift_n or_o else_o jesus_n christ_n be_v nothing_o worth_a i_o term_v it_o salvation_n of_o free_a gift_n because_o it_o be_v give_v we_o simple_o of_o god_n so_o as_o we_o bring_v not_o any_o thing_n with_o we_o to_o the_o attainment_n thereof_o but_o only_a a_o eager_a desire_n too_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o want_v therefore_o it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n too_o come_v as_o poor_a beggar_n untoo_o god_n if_o we_o mind_n too_o be_v justify_v for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n for_o if_o we_o imagine_v never_o so_o small_a a_o drop_n of_o deserve_v in_o ourselves_o it_o stop_v we_o from_o come_v too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o without_o cause_n do_v a_o ancient_a doctor_n say_v that_o we_o can_v receyve_v the_o salvation_n that_o be_v offer_v we_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n except_o we_o have_v first_o dispatch_v the_o mynd_n of_o our_o own_o desert_n and_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o utter_a wretchedness_n in_o ourselves_o thus_o you_o see_v why_o saint_n paul_n have_v yet_o more_o just_a reason_n too_o say_v that_o the_o galathians_n be_v carry_v away_o from_o jesus_n christ_n and_o from_o his_o father_n but_o there_o be_v yet_o this_o clog_n more_o namely_o that_o they_o be_v make_v too_o believe_v what_o other_o man_n ly_v and_o thereby_o bring_v in_o subjection_n too_o a_o slavishe_a bondage_n too_o be_v rob_v of_o the_o quietness_n of_o conscience_n which_o we_o ought_v too_o have_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o besides_o that_o we_o be_v reconcyle_v by_o the_o sacryfize_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n we_o be_v also_o set_v free_a from_o the_o rigour_n of_o the_o law_n under_o the_o which_o we_o be_v hilde_n in_o bondage_n as_o for_o example_n according_a as_o we_o shall_v see_v more_o full_o hereafter_o for_o as_o now_o i_o do_v but_o overrun_v matter_n whereof_o we_o shall_v see_v a_o large_a discourse_n afterward_o 26._o you_o know_v how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o law_n that_o whosoever_o perform_v not_o all_o that_o god_n command_v to_o the_o uttermost_a point_n shall_v be_v accurse_v but_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o attain_v too_o such_o perfection_n therefore_o it_o stand_v we_o upon_o too_o have_v

in_o the_o fifteen_o of_o the_o act_n now_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n why_o saint_n paul_n blame_v the_o galathians_n for_o fall_v away_o like_o perjure_a person_n towards_o god_n and_o towards_o our_o

to_o the_o pure_a doctrine_n and_o simplicity_n of_o the_o gospel_n without_o waver_v one_o way_n or_o other_o for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v the_o name_n and_o title_n of_o christian_n no_o nor_o yet_o to_o bear_v the_o mark_n of_o baptism_n but_o we_o must_v continue_v steadfast_a in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v heretofore_o our_o lord_n

of_o god_n his_o father_n now_o the_o gospel_n show_v wherefore_o he_o be_v come_v what_o his_o office_n be_v the_o benefit_n that_o we_o receyve_v by_o he_o and_o what_o his_o power_n be_v towards_o

whensoever_o we_o have_v once_o be_v instruct_v in_o it_o we_o must_v hold_v it_o still_o too_o the_o last_o push_n for_o if_o we_o swerve_v never_o so_o little_a from_o it_o there_o will_v be_v nothing_o but_o unfaythfulnesse_n in_o us._n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n to_o bethink_v we_o of_o the_o horrible_a fall_n whereunto_o we_o be_v tumble_v with_o other_o when_o we_o be_v plunge_v in_o so_o many_o error_n trumperye_n and_o illusion_n of_o satan_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v utter_o unknown_a too_o us._n see_v that_o god_n have_v now_o of_o his_o own_o infinite_a goodness_n pluck_v we_o out_o of_o such_o a_o bottomless_a gulf_n let_v we_o settle_v ourselves_o too_o have_v a_o constant_a and_o fast_a faith_n that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o shake_v

this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v in_o this_o say_n of_o s._n paul_n furthermore_o to_o put_v the_o galathians_n to_o the_o great_a shame_n he_o set_v before_o they_o their_o call_n by_o grace_n these_o word_n from_o he_o that_o have_v call_v you_o may_v be_v refer_v as_o well_o too_o jesus_n christ_n as_o too_o god_n the_o father_n for_o there_o be_v no_o great_a difference_n in_o the_o matter_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o saint_n paul_n mean_v too_o say_v therefore_o he_o cast_v the_o galathians_n in_o the_o

the_o thing_n which_o the_o jew_n have_v too_o consider_v in_o that_o visible_a sacrament_n be_v that_o man_n nature_n be_v curse_v before_o god_n and_o that_o we_o may_v well_o seek_v but_o never_o

whereof_o hypocrite_n have_v always_o make_v their_o cloak_n but_o howsoever_o they_o fare_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o jew_n be_v more_o damnable_a than_o all_o other_o man_n and_o why_o for_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v without_o the_o law_n sin_n do_v not_o upbrayde_v man_n 13._o insomuch_o that_o man_n fall_v asleep_a and_o flatter_v themselves_o in_o their_o vice_n when_o they_o have_v

consequent_o double_a guilty_a in_o comparison_n of_o the_o gentile_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o second_o to_o the_o collossian_n s_o paul_n use_v this_o similitude_n 14._o that_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n be_v as_o evidence_n to_o bind_v a_o man_n the_o more_o true_o like_a as_o although_o a_o debtor_n be_v not_o condemn_v by_o order_n of_o law_n nor_o have_v bind_v himself_o before_o

although_o the_o gentyle_n have_v not_o any_o authentical_a matter_n of_o record_n whereby_o to_o be_v condemn_v yet_o cease_v they_o not_o too_o be_v still_o worthy_a of_o death_n but_o as_o for_o the_o man_n that_o have_v pass_v bond_n by_o order_n of_o law_n and_o enter_v his_o debt_n in_o the_o common_a record_n what_o shall_v he_o say_v more_o there_o be_v no_o shift_n for_o he_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o answer_v the_o debt_n out_o of_o hand_n now_o the_o jew_n be_v in_o the_o like_a plight_n for_o their_o wash_n of_o themselves_o when_o they_o go_v intoo_o the_o temple_n and_o in_o their_o own_o house_n and_o every_o where_o else_o be_v a_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o uncleanness_n in_o they_o again_o when_o they_o kill_v the_o beast_n and_o see_v they_o slay_v before_o they_o sure_o the_o same_o be_v as_o a_o lively_a picture_n of_o their_o own_o death_n and_o curse_a state_n and_o yet_o can_v not_o the_o brute_n beast_n nor_o the_o shed_n of_o their_o blood_n set_v they_o clear_a nor_o likewise_o the_o water_n which_o be_v a_o corruptible_a element_n and_o can_v come_v at_o the_o soul_n so_o then_o the_o wash_n which_o they_o use_v have_v be_v a_o fond_a thing_n if_o it_o have_v not_o direct_v they_o to_o the_o spiritual_a wash_n which_o we_o have_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n likewise_o in_o baptism_n at_o these_o day_n if_o we_o think_v ourselves_o to_o be_v make_v clean_o by_o the_o water_n what_o a_o abuse_n be_v it_o all_o these_o thing_n must_v serve_v to_o lead_v we_o to_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o whereas_o the_o jew_n be_v exercyse_v in_o the_o law_n the_o same_o be_v a_o great_a evidence_n against_o they_o and_o bind_v they_o straightly_a to_o subjection_n unto_o god_n judgement_n and_o eternal_a death_n than_o the_o gentile_n be_v and_o so_o we_o see_v how_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o a_o bringer_n in_o of_o sin_n but_o a_o discoverer_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o jew_n think_v themselves_o well_o shroud_v under_o the_o ceremony_n and_o make_v a_o shield_v of_o they_o to_o fence_v themselves_o from_o god_n displeasure_n esteem_v all_o other_o nation_n unholy_a upon_o opinion_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o uncleanness_n in_o all_o the_o world_n besides_o and_o that_o all_o holiness_n be_v in_o themselves_o lo_o what_o their_o bravery_n be_v yea_o but_o when_o jesus_n christ_n come_v and_o put_v they_o in_o order_n he_o show_v they_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v fain_o too_o show_v other_o man_n by_o their_o

too_o confess_v that_o they_o on_o their_o part_n bring_v nothing_o with_o they_o but_o utter_a cursednesse_n and_o by_o that_o mean_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n discover_v the_o mischief_n that_o have_v be_v hide_v before_o like_v as_o disease_a person_n shall_v oftentimes_o not_o perceyve_v the_o fester_a of_o some_o sore_n that_o will_v breed_v some_o deadly_a disease_n till_o the_o

which_o saint_n paul_n put_v forth_o here_o likewise_o in_o these_o day_n if_o a_o man_n speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n too_o such_o as_o think_v they_o serve_v god_n and_o hope_v to_o win_v heaven_n

by_o only_a violence_n it_o can_v not_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o welfare_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o note_v that_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o matter_n after_o that_o sort_n aforehand_o 23._o according_a also_o as_o saint_n peter_n treat_v thereof_o more_o full_o in_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n where_o he_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v so_o crucify_v by_o the_o

namely_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v foolishness_n too_o mankind_n yea_o even_o too_o the_o wyze_a of_o they_o and_o that_o it_o be_v god_n will_v too_o humble_v we_o after_o

by_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v show_v we_o in_o the_o whole_a order_n of_o heaven_n &_o earth_n but_o for_o asmuch_o as_o man_n be_v blind_a and_o shut_v their_o eye_n against_o this_o wisdom_n that_o

thus_o you_o see_v two_o thing_n that_o be_v requisyte_n when_o we_o will_v have_v our_o exhortation_n too_o be_v profitable_a the_o first_o be_v that_o there_o be_v a_o livelynesse_n in_o we_o too_o

for_o if_o they_o have_v not_o that_o sorynesse_n they_o will_v never_o yield_v to_o follow_v god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o to_o outward_a sight_n man_n may_v well_o alter_v their_o lewd_a

have_v deserve_v so_o then_o the_o true_a preparative_n too_o repentance_n be_v to_o be_v prick_v so_o near_o as_o we_o may_v feel_v the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o we_o and_o condemn_v ourselves_o for_o it_o yea_o and_o that_o we_o be_v full_a of_o anguish_n find_v no_o rest_n till_o god_n have_v receyve_v we_o to_o mercy_n but_o yet_o
behold_v i_o paul_n do_v tell_v you_o that_o if_o you_o be_v circumcise_v christ_n shall_v profit_v you_o nothing_o at_o all_o 3_o and_o again_o i_o protest_v to_o every_o man_n that_o be_v

upon_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o many_o do_v boast_v themselves_o to_o be_v god_n child_n who_o notwithstanding_o be_v not_o beget_v of_o the_o true_a seed_n which_o make_v the_o

for_o us._n it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o treat_v here_o of_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o always_o resort_v to_o the_o welhead_n and_o chief_a point_n for_o if_o the_o

be_v move_v for_o it_o in_o the_o church_n but_o saint_n paul_n pore_v not_o upon_o a_o matter_n so_o slight_a and_o of_o so_o small_a importance_n he_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o doctrine_n he_o consider_v that_o if_o man_n shall_v be_v tie_v to_o do_v this_o thing_n or_o that_o thing_n of_o necessity_n it_o be_v a_o exclude_v of_o they_o from_o the_o hope_n of_o salvation_n for_o if_o i_o

of_o the_o law_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v a_o remedy_n for_o it_o which_o be_v to_o run_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n in_o all_o our_o need_n who_o be_v make_v subject_a to_o the_o law_n to_o purchase_v we_o freedom_n and_o bear_v our_o curse_n to_o discharge_v we_o of_o it_o now_o if_o any_o necessity_n be_v lay_v upon_o we_o again_o too_o say_v that_o the_o do_v

half_n it_o stand_v we_o on_o hand_n to_o mark_v this_o text_n so_o much_o the_o better_a where_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o whosoever_o be_v circumcyse_v be_v a_o debtor_n of_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n when_o saint_n paul_n speak_v after_o that_o sort_n of_o circumcision_n we_o must_v mark_v that_o he_o talk_v not_o according_a to_o god_n first_o institute_v of_o it_o for_o

set_v our_o father_n abraham_n at_o full_a liberty_n why_o then_o do_v he_o take_v it_o because_o god_n give_v it_o he_o as_o a_o record_n and_o sacrament_n of_o his_o free_a goodness_n but_o contrariwise_o those_o against_o who_o saint_n paul_n reason_v take_v circumcision_n as_o a_o meritorious_a work_n and_o think_v thereby_o to_o deserve_v at_o god_n hand_n they_o enter_v intoo_o a_o

and_o bind_v of_o necessity_n to_o take_v they_o into_o his_o paradise_n for_o do_v this_o or_o that_o for_o he_o no_o no_o say_v saint_n paul_n we_o must_v go_v more_o substantial_o too_o work_v we_o must_v not_o fall_v to_o bargayn_v with_o god_n to_o say_v that_o he_o bind_v we_o to_o perform_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o that_o we_o bind_v he_o to_o give_v we_o everlasting_a life_n if_o we_o come_v to_o that_o point_n we_o be_v debtor_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n to_o be_v short_a saint_n paul_n stryve_v here_o against_o the_o divelishe_a error_n that_o reign_v in_o the_o popedom_n they_o

you_o see_v how_o the_o shadow_n and_o figure_n serve_v but_o for_o a_o time_n so_o then_o s._n paul_n declare_v 19_o that_o he_o will_v not_o in_o any_o point_n diminish_v the_o authority_n of_o
