that_o be_v the_o second_o benefit_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n bring_v we_o and_o they_o be_v two_o thing_n knit_v together_o by_o unseparable_a band_n so_o that_o like_a as_o the_o

any_o man_n accuse_v the_o gospel_n that_o it_o give_v liberty_n to_o do_v evil_a and_o too_o sin_n we_o may_v always_o answer_v how_o so_o by_o the_o law_n we_o be_v always_o dead_a for_o there_o we_o see_v our_o own_o cursednesse_n which_o will_v leave_v we_o dismay_v in_o despair_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n although_o we_o be_v crucify_v that_o be_v too_o say_v although_o there_o be_v a_o spice_n of_o death_n in_o the_o gospel_n yet_o be_v that_o death_n a_o quicken_a death_n and_o the_o cause_n of_o life_n for_o so_o long_o as_o man_n live_v too_o themselves_o they_o be_v dead_a 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 twelve_o too_o the_o roman_n call_v we_o lyve_a sacrifice_n 1_o where_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o must_v be_v transform_v and_o utter_o gyve_v over_o our_o own_o reason_n and_o our_o own_o will_n too_o yield_v god_n such_o service_n as_o be_v meet_v for_o he_o too_o have_v he_o say_v offer_v up_o yourselves_o as_o lyve_a sacrifice_n so_o then_o in_o the_o law_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o deadly_a death_n a_o death_n that_o leave_v we_o utter_o overwhelm_v and_o sink_v even_o down_o intoo_o hell_n but_o in_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v a_o quicken_a death_n and_o why_o for_o we_o be_v crucify_v with_o jesus_n christ_n too_o live_v unto_o god_n that_o be_v too_o say_v 4_o our_o old_a man_n as_o saint_n paul_n term_v it_o in_o the_o six_o too_o the_o roman_n and_o that_o which_o we_o have_v of_o our_o own_o nature_n be_v do_v away_o howebeeit_v not_o at_o the_o first_o day_n but_o by_o little_a and_o little_a but_o how_o soever_o the_o case_n stand_v we_o shall_v perceyve_v that_o

which_o the_o law_n bring_v do_v not_o now_o than_o we_o see_v the_o very_a intent_n of_o saint_n paul_n and_o the_o natural_a meaning_n of_o this_o text_n therefore_o now_o a_o day_n when_o the_o

o_o say_v they_o be_v they_o so_o that_o be_v the_o next_o way_n to_o give_v every_o man_n the_o bridle_n too_o live_v after_o his_o own_o like_n and_o too_o cause_n that_o there_o may_v be_v no_o

wherefore_o god_n have_v ordain_v they_o and_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o have_v very_o well_o discharge_v their_o duty_n in_o come_v to_o church_n and_o in_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v command_v they_o outward_o but_o true_o they_o disguise_v god_n after_o their_o own_o fancy_n as_o he_o himself_o mock_v they_o for_o it_o by_o his_o prophet_n 1_o say_v that_o he_o

of_o their_o folly_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o entitle_v they_o to_o be_v the_o service_n of_o god_n but_o whatsoever_o they_o say_v they_o be_v nothing_o else_o than_o ingle_v trick_n and_o mask_a toy_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v here_o s._n paul_n compare_v the_o spirit_n with_o the_o flesh_n what_o mean_v he_o by_o the_o spirit_n all_o the_o

preace_v near_o unto_o god_n and_o all_o the_o people_n keep_v themselves_o a_o far_o off_o but_o we_o have_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v our_o priest_n by_o who_o the_o way_n be_v open_v we_o in_o his_o blood_n to_o make_v we_o to_o come_v unto_o god_n his_o father_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o he_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrews_n 11_o then_o if_o we_o receive_v the_o

our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o offer_v himself_o in_o sacrifice_n too_o do_v away_o all_o our_o sin_n &_o to_o make_v we_o way_n unto_o god_n from_o who_o we_o be_v shut_v out_o before_o

since_o do_v both_o hate_v we_o and_o love_v we_o before_o the_o reconciliation_n be_v make_v and_o why_o love_v he_o we_o because_o we_o be_v his_o creature_n and_o again_o although_o he_o see_v we_o

see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o god_n have_v show_v himself_o so_o gracious_a
and_o merciful_a before_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o he_o what_o will_v he_o do_v now_o when_o we_o have_v so_o sure_a a_o warrant_n and_o that_o the_o gospel_n also_o be_v preach_v unto_o we_o to_o

now_o saint_n paul_n add_v immediate_o that_o it_o be_v to_o deliver_v we_o from_o this_o wicked_a world_n here_o he_o show_v why_o we_o be_v call_v too_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v crucify_v we_o must_v not_o only_o think_v that_o the_o same_o be_v do_v for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n but_o also_o every_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

as_o child_n yield_v themselves_o subject_a too_o their_o father_n know_v well_o that_o their_o father_n will_v not_o handle_v they_o rough_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o word_n liberty_n or_o freedom_n which_o s._n paul_n use_v nevertheless_o to_o the_o end_n that_o this_o shortness_n be_v not_o darksome_a i_o will_v declare_v it_o more_o aâ—â—â—ge_a so_o long_o as_o we_o

unto_o god_n many_o way_n yea_o infinite_a way_n for_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n and_o we_o break_v it_o a_o hundred_o time_n a_o day_n yea_o even_o or_o ever_o we_o think_v of_o it_o

of_o everlasting_a death_n wherein_o we_o stand_v bind_v now_o we_o attain_v that_o benefit_n when_o we_o be_v persuade_v by_o the_o gospel_n that_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n

our_o offence_n &_o iniquity_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o way_n to_o set_v we_o free_a be_v to_o know_v that_o god_n receive_v we_o to_o mercy_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n &_o that_o our_o fault_n &_o sin_n shall_v not_o hinder_v we_o to_o find_v favour_n always_o in_o his_o sight_n or_o to_o have_v familiar_a access_n unto_o he_o as_o child_n have_v untoo_o their_o
