reconcile_v to_o he_o now_o when_o the_o soul_n find_v this_o and_o the_o like_a and_o withal_o have_v a_o inward_a work_n which_o though_o happy_o he_o can_v discover_v the_o manner_n and_o order_n thereof_o nor_o express_v it_o to_o other_o yet_o he_o know_v more_o thereof_o then_o any_o man_n under_o heaven_n ask_v a_o child_n how_o do_v you_o know_v such_o a_o man_n be_v your_o father_n alas_o he_o can_v tell_v you_o yet_o he_o have_v a_o strong_a affection_n towards_o he_o above_o all_o other_o and_o feel_v in_o himself_o such_o a_o lean_v in_o his_o affection_n towards_o he_o as_o another_o feel_v not_o so_o the_o mother_n of_o the_o child_n that_o be_v bring_v before_o solomon_n have_v no_o argument_n in_o the_o world_n to_o prove_v the_o child_n to_o be_v she_o but_o the_o yern_v of_o her_o bowel_n and_o relent_v of_o her_o spirit_n towards_o the_o child_n prove_v it_o sufficient_o so_o there_o be_v in_o a_o saint_n of_o god_n a_o inward_a tenderness_n of_o affection_n a_o lean_v of_o his_o soul_n towards_o god_n which_o no_o man_n know_v but_o he_o that_o have_v it_o if_o a_o curious_a workman_n after_o he_o have_v make_v a_o clock_n or_o a_o watch_n show_v the_o

a_o curious_a frame_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o christian_a of_o grace_n of_o faith_n of_o repentance_n of_o holiness_n of_o love_n patience_n and_o the_o like_a a_o bless_a disposition_n of_o

rear_v up_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n alone_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o christian_n now_o the_o apostle_n paul_n who_o have_v such_o a_o work_n as_o this_o wrought_v in_o he_o

himself_o understand_v it_o so_o can_v i_o discern_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o spiritual_a frame_n in_o the_o heart_n further_o than_o god_n be_v please_v to_o teach_v i_o this_o skill_n by_o the_o

happy_o to_o discourse_v of_o some_o point_n of_o religion_n oh_o look_v further_o he_o that_o have_v save_v knowledge_n indeed_o go_v far_o beyond_o all_o this_o you_o that_o be_v tradesman_n or_o you_o that_o have_v child_n will_v any_o man_n say_v my_o child_n be_v a_o good_a scholar_n for_o he_o have_v go_v so_o long_o to_o school_v or_o my_o apprentice_n have_v good_a skill_n in_o his_o

and_o live_v so_o long_o under_o they_o that_o therefore_o he_o be_v so_o so_o it_o be_v here_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n for_o any_o man_n to_o ground_v his_o assurance_n of_o salvation_n on_o his_o

his_o long_a live_n under_o a_o good_a ministry_n no_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n among_o we_o and_o to_o have_v the_o mean_n and_o help_v of_o save_a knowledge_n you_o may_v have_v all_o these_o and_o yet_o remain_v ignorant_a and_o blind_a and_o be_v a_o people_n of_o no_o understanding_n second_o this_o be_v a_o word_n of_o instruction_n to_o we_o we_o be_v hence_o give_v to_o understand_v the_o sinfulness_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o the_o blindness_n of_o our_o mind_n see_v a_o man_n may_v have_v all_o the_o mean_n under_o heaven_n and_o yet_o all_o prove_v unprofitable_a to_o he_o may_v enjoy_v all_o the_o help_n that_o god_n have_v set_v up_o in_o his_o church_n for_o the_o good_a of_o people_n soul_n and_o yet_o receive_v no_o good_a by_o they_o what_o a_o strange_a heart_n be_v we_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v even_o among_o many_o of_o we_o in_o this_o place_n and_o i_o wish_v it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o most_o that_o live_v in_o the_o church_n at_o this_o day_n i_o fear_v i_o that_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v go_v from_o heart_n to_o heart_n and_o observe_v every_o one_o particular_a

because_o through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n it_o be_v transitory_a to_o all_o believer_n 4._o last_o it_o be_v call_v a_o body_n because_o as_o our_o body_n be_v make_v up_o of_o many_o integral_n and_o consist_v of_o several_a member_n by_o which_o they_o act_n and_o exercise_v several_a function_n so_o also_o original_a corruption_n be_v one_o thing_n consist_v of_o many_o particular_a sin_n as_o so_o many_o integrall_a part_n or_o several_a member_n whereby_o it_o put_v forth_o itself_o in_o several_a operation_n for_o these_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n original_a corruption_n be_v call_v a_o body_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o body_n and_o now_o it_o be_v more_o easy_a to_o understand_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n be_v life_n because_o of_o righteousness_n for_o if_o by_o the_o body_n be_v mean_v original_a corruption_n then_o by_o the_o spirit_n must_v be_v mean_v original_a righteousness_n that_o which_o be_v elsewhere_o in_o the_o scripture_n call_v the_o divine_a nature_n or_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n or_o grace_n or_o holiness_n or_o the_o like_a original_a holiness_n or_o righteousness_n be_v that_o which_o i_o take_v it_o be_v here_o mean_v by_o the_o spirit_n it_o be_v so_o call_v john_n 3.6_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v spirit_n and_o so_o in_o many_o other_o place_n now_o this_o same_o habit_n of_o holiness_n be_v call_v the_o spirit_n 1._o to_o show_v the_o excellency_n of_o it_o that_o as_o a_o spirit_n be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n far_o above_o all_o bodily_a substance_n so_o be_v holiness_n the_o excellent_a of_o god_n creature_n for_o grace_n be_v also_o a_o creature_n as_o other_o thing_n 2._o to_o show_v the_o durableness_n of_o it_o though_o sin_n shall_v die_v in_o the_o saint_n and_o be_v utter_o destroy_v yet_o grace_n shall_v never_o be_v destroy_v stroy_v nor_o cease_v in_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n 3._o it_o be_v call_v the_o spirit_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o object_n of_o it_o for_o the_o object_n of_o this_o grace_n be_v spiritual_a thing_n 4._o in_o regard_n of_o the_o author_n of_o it_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n that_o beget_v and_o work_v it_o in_o people_n therefore_o as_o the_o child_n bear_v the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n so_o do_v this_o of_o the_o spirit_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o sin_n namely_o the_o transgression_n of_o god_n law_n either_o in_o omission_n or_o commission_n what_o by_o righteousness_n the_o observation_n of_o god_n law_n in_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o first_o and_o second_o table_n what_o by_o the_o body_n original_a corruption_n what_o by_o the_o spirit_n the_o habit_n of_o holiness_n or_o original_a righteousness_n now_o than_o the_o whole_a amount_v to_o this_o that_o if_o so_o be_v the_o lord_n christ_n be_v in_o people_n than_o there_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n in_o they_o and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n thus_o much_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o word_n let_v they_o be_v take_v any_o way_n which_o way_n soever_o expositor_n can_v carry_v they_o this_o must_v be_v the_o sense_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o we_o need_v not_o spend_v further_a time_n in_o the_o exposition_n but_o will_v fall_v direct_o upon_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v this_o in_o whosoever_o christ_n be_v there_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n the_o point_n be_v very_o evident_a and_o express_a in_o the_o text_n be_v the_o main_a matter_n scope_n and_o drift_n thereof_o as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n for_o the_o prove_v of_o it_o not_o to_o trouble_v you_o with_o many_o other_o scripture_n you_o may_v consider_v these_o thing_n first_o the_o end_n and_o the_o office_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o apostle_n paul_n express_v tit._n 2.14_o christ_n give_v himself_o for_o we_o that_o he_o may_v redeem_v we_o from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o purify_v unto_o himself_o a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n the_o main_a end_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o redemption_n of_o a_o people_n from_o all_o iniquity_n which_o impli_v not_o only_o the_o removal_n of_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o destroy_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n therefore_o 1_o joh._n 3.8_o it_o be_v say_v that_o for_o this_o purpose_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n not_o only_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o power_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n now_o therefore_o for_o this_o purpose_n say_v the_o text_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v that_o he_o may_v free_v we_o from_o the_o guilt_n yea_o and_o from_o the_o dominion_n and_o life_n and_o power_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v one_o end_n another_o end_n of_o christ_n give_v himself_n be_v to_o purify_v we_o therefore_o he_o must_v put_v sin_n to_o death_n in_o we_o for_o to_o purify_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o purge_v out_o corruption_n as_o the_o fire_n do_v work_v the_o dross_n out_o that_o be_v in_o the_o gold_n again_o to_o purify_v we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v a_o peculiar_a people_n zealous_a of_o good_a work_n where_o there_o be_v a_o zealousnesse_n of_o good_a work_n there_o must_v be_v a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n so_o that_o by_o that_o place_n you_o plain_o see_v that_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o put_n of_o sin_n to_o death_n and_o bring_v in_o the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n moreover_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v the_o second_o adam_n and_o he_o be_v so_o call_v 1_o cor._n 15.45_o and_o to_o speak_v the_o truth_n the_o first_o adam_n be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v rom._n 5.14_o who_o be_v the_o figure_n or_o type_n of_o he_o that_o be_v to_o come_v for_o not_o only_o the_o ceremony_n among_o the_o jew_n be_v type_n of_o christ_n but_o even_o adam_n in_o his_o fall_n in_o his_o undo_n the_o world_n in_o his_o overthrow_v of_o mankind_n be_v a_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o christ_n also_o only_o other_o type_n do_v figure_n out_o christ_n by_o way_n of_o similitude_n but_o adam_n by_o way_n of_o dissimilitude_n and_o contrariety_n for_o look_v what_o adam_n do_v the_o contrary_a to_o that_o christ_n be_v to_o do_v now_o adam_n do_v cause_n to_o all_o in_o who_o he_o be_v as_o the_o parent_n be_v in_o the_o child_n a_o death_n of_o righteousness_n and_o a_o life_n of_o sin_n therefore_o the_o contrary_a the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v work_v in_o all_o those_o in_o who_o he_o be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n second_o this_o point_n be_v also_o plain_a from_o the_o consideration_n of_o those_o respect_n in_o which_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o people_n those_o be_v as_o you_o hear_v before_o first_o in_o regard_n of_o his_o spirit_n second_o in_o regard_n of_o his_o virtue_n influence_n and_o sap_n that_o be_v in_o they_o now_o where_o ever_o these_o be_v there_o must_v be_v a_o death_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n for_o the_o former_a even_o as_o fire_n do_v purge_v away_o dross_n and_o rust_n so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v out_o corruption_n and_o put_v sin_n to_o death_n where_o ever_o he_o come_v and_o as_o light_n expel_v darkness_n even_o so_o do_v he_o expel_v unrighteousness_n and_o sin_n because_o he_o be_v the_o holy_a spirit_n again_o for_o the_o virtue_n and_o life_n of_o christ_n you_o know_v it_o be_v the_o life_n of_o righteousness_n therefore_o wherever_o this_o be_v there_o must_v be_v a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n in_o that_o man_n last_o of_o all_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o that_o communion_n with_o christ_n and_o conformity_n to_o he_o that_o all_o those_o must_v have_v which_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o they_o wherein_o they_o must_v have_v a_o communion_n with_o and_o a_o conformity_n to_o christ_n saint_n paul_n show_v
