Law of Faith is that which bespeaks our next enquiry The present existence of neither of them can be called into question for without the overthrowing the Nature of God the Nature of Man and the Decalogue of Moses we cannot suspect the Being and Obligation of the first Nor can the existence of the second fall under debate without disclaiming the Gospel not only in all the conditions of it but our hopes by it A consistency betwixt them must also be granted it being unbecoming and repugnant to the Wisdom of God to keep in establishment two several Laws whereof the one is wholly subversive of the other nor can Subjects in justice and equity be at one and the same time obliged to Laws which neither in their demands nor designs are consistent one with another The Apostle hath long agoe determined this Do we then make voyd the Law through Faith God forbid yea we establish the Law Rom. 3.31 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 make voyd 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 signifies inutilem inanem ignavam omnibus viribus destitutam reddere to render idle fruitless destitute of all binding power to evacuate the obligation of a thing 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 That through death he might destroy him that had the power of death Heb. 2.15 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 we establish legem statuimus vulg stabilimus i. e. firmam efficacem reddimus Bez.

The whole of which as it is false so it is absurd and non-sensical For if they be against no Law they are not at all sins but acts in themselves indifferent and Lawful And if they be violations of any Law of God i. e. if they be at all sins they demerit eternal death That being the penalty annexed by God to the breach of every command Rom. 6.23 Gal. 3.10 Deut 27.26 Rom. 2.9 Besides did we remain able to fulfil observe the Law of Creation perfectly there could be no place nor room for the Law of Grace For as the Apostle saith if there had been a Law given which could have given life verily Righteousness should have been by the Law Gal. 3.21 It being then impossible that they should be Coordinate it remains that the one lye in a subordination to the other And seeing that the Gospel in all its super-structions supposeth the Original Law still in Being though not Universally to the same ends that it first served and for as much as the Law of Faith is provided and introduced of God to minister relief against the Law of Nature it likewise appears that the Original Law is now brought into a subserviency and subordination to the Remedial-Law How and wherein this is shall be farther laid open First then Our Lord Jesus hath in the Gospel adapted the Decalogue which is a compleat transcript of the Natural Law to be the alone measure of
