the_o law_n say_v if_o thou_o will_v enter_v into_o life_n keep_v the_o commandment_n vers_fw-la 17._o he_o suppose_v because_o of_o his_o political_a and_o external_a performance_n towards_o man_n that_o none_o can_v pose_v he_o there_o ask_v which_o of_o the_o commandment_n as_o if_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o he_o by_o which_o he_o shall_v be_v try_v like_o a_o young_a scholar_n who_o have_v

when_o our_o work_n be_v abominable_a to_o the_o public_a scandal_n of_o our_o christian_a profession_n but_o the_o young_a man_n think_v if_o this_o be_v all_o to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n that_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o he_o reply_v all_o these_o have_v i_o keep_v from_o my_o youth_n what_o lack_v i_o yet_o but_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o he_o suppose_v there_o want_v something_o and_o that_o his_o civil_a performance_n of_o the_o commandment_n can_v not_o assure_v he_o of_o everlasting_a life_n he_o have_v bend_v the_o rule_n to_o the_o square_n of_o his_o own_o

show_v that_o god_n require_v both_o the_o outward_a and_o inward_a conformity_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o law_n and_o then_o he_o try_v this_o young_a man_n action_n by_o
