righteousness_n and_o eternal_a life_n wherefore_o paul_n separate_v moses_n far_o from_o christ_n let_v moses_n then_o tarry_v on_o the_o earth_n let_v he_o be_v the_o schoolmaster_n of_o the_o letter_n and_o exactor_n of_o the_o law_n let_v he_o torment_v and_o crucify_v sinner_n but_o the_o believer_n say_v paul_n have_v a_o other_o schoolmaster_n in_o their_o conscience_n not_o moses_n but_o christ_n which_o have_v abolish_v the_o law_n and_o sin_n have_v overcome_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o destroy_v death_n he_o bid_v we_o that_o labour_n and_o be_v oppress_v with_o all_o kind_n of_o evil_n to_o come_v unto_o he_o therefore_o when_o we_o fly_v unto_o he_o moses_n with_o his_o law_n vanish_v away_o 34._o so_o that_o his_o sepulchre_n can_v no_o where_o be_v see_v sin_n and_o death_n can_v hurt_v we_o no_o more_o for_o christ_n our_o instructor_n be_v lord_n over_o the_o law_n sin_n and_o death_n so_o that_o they_o which_o believe_v in_o he_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o same_o it_o be_v therefore_o the_o proper_a office_n of_o christ_n to_o deliver_v from_o sin_n and_o from_o death_n and_o this_o paul_n teach_v and_o repeat_v every_o where_o christ_n we_o be_v condemn_v and_o kill_v by_o the_o law_n but_o by_o christ_n we_o be_v justify_v &_o restore_v to_o life_n the_o law_n astonish_v we_o and_o drive_v we_o from_o god_n but_o christ_n reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n and_o make_v for_o we_o a_o entrance_n that_o we_o may_v bold_o come_v unto_o he_o for_o he_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n that_o have_v take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n now_o if_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n be_v take_v away_o then_o be_v it_o take_v away_o from_o i_o also_o which_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o thing_n if_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o then_o be_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n death_n and_o damnation_n take_v away_o also_o and_o in_o the_o place_n of_o sin_n succeed_v righteousness_n in_o the_o place_n of_o wrath_n reconciliation_n &_o grace_n in_o the_o place_n of_o death_n life_n and_o in_o the_o place_n of_o damnation_n salvation_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o practice_v this_o distinction_n not_o in_o word_n only_o but_o in_o life_n and_o lively_a experience_n and_o with_o a_o inward_a feel_n for_o where_o christ_n be_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v joy_n of_o heart_n and_o peace_n of_o conscience_n for_o christ_n be_v our_o reconciliation_n righteousness_n peace_n life_n and_o salvation_n brief_o what_o so_o ever_o the_o poor_a afflict_a conscience_n desire_v it_o find_v in_o christ_n abundant_o now_o paul_n go_v about_o to_o amplify_v this_o argument_n and_o to_o persuade_v as_o follow_v verse_n 18._o for_o if_o i_o build_v again_o the_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v destroy_v i_o make_v myself_o a_o trespasser_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o have_v not_o preach_v to_o this_o end_n that_o i_o may_v build_v again_o those_o thing_n which_o i_o once_o destroy_v for_o if_o i_o shall_v so_o do_v i_o shall_v not_o only_o labour_v in_o deign_v but_o

the_o law_n and_o moses_n &_o contrariwise_o of_o the_o law_n and_o moses_n i_o shall_v make_v grace_n and_o christ_n now_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o have_v abolish_v sin_n gospel_n heaviness_n of_o heart_n wrath_n and_o death_n for_o thus_o have_v i_o teach_v thy_o conscience_n oh_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o law_n sin_n and_o death_n from_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o be_v deliver_v either_o by_o man_n or_o angel_n but_o now_o come_v the_o gospel_n and_o preach_v unto_o thou_o remission_n of_o sin_n by_o jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v abolish_v the_o law_n and_o have_v destroy_v sin_n and_o death_n believe_v in_o he_o so_o shall_v thou_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n and_o from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n thou_o shall_v become_v righteous_a and_o have_v eternal_a life_n behold_v how_o i_o have_v destroy_v the_o law_n by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o the_o end_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o reign_v in_o thy_o conscience_n any_o more_o for_o when_o the_o new_a gest_n christ_n jesus_n come_v into_o the_o new_a house_n there_o to_o dwell_v alone_o gospel_n moses_n the_o old_a inhabiter_n must_v

build_v up_o again_o the_o law_n and_o set_v up_o the_o kingdom_n of_o moses_n in_o deed_n this_o shall_v i_o do_v if_o i_o shall_v teach_v circumcision_n and_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o law_n to_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n as_o the_o false_a apostle_n do_v and_o by_o this_o mean_n in_o the_o steed_n of_o righteousness_n and_o life_n i_o shall_v restore_v again_o sin_n and_o death_n for_o the_o law_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o utter_a sin_n procure_v god_n wrath_n kill_v and_o destroy_v what_o be_v the_o papist_n i_o pray_v you_o yea_o the_o best_a of_o they_o all_o christ_n but_o destroyer_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o bvilder_n up_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o of_o sin_n of_o wrath_n and_o eternal_a death_n yea_o they_o destroy_v the_o church_n which_o be_v god_n building_n not_o by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n as_o do_v the_o false_a apostle_n but_o by_o man_n tradition_n and_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n and_o even_o so_o the_o

separate_v they_o far_o asunder_o and_o this_o distinction_n or_o difference_n between_o the_o law_n and_o grace_n let_v every_o man_n that_o fear_v god_n mark_v diligent_o and_o let_v he_o suffer_v the_o same_o to_o take_v place_n not_o in_o letter_n and_o syllable_n but_o in_o practice_n &_o inward_a experience_n so_o that_o when_o he_o hear_v that_o good_a work_n ought_v to_o be_v do_v and_o that_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v follow_v he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o judge_v right_o and_o say_v well_o all_o these_o thing_n will_v i_o glad_o do_v what_o then_o follow_v thou_o

and_o to_o she_o will_v my_o blood_n also_o if_o need_v be_v for_o christ_n cause_n but_o yet_o be_o i_o not_o justify_v neither_o do_v i_o obtain_v salvation_n thereby_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o

which_o malefactor_n suffer_v for_o their_o wicked_a deed_n death_n do_v deserve_v everlasting_a life_n for_o thus_o they_o comfort_v they_o when_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o gallows_n or_o

which_o be_v only_o able_a to_o bring_v comfort_n and_o salvation_n and_o shall_v be_v command_v to_o hope_v for_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n if_o he_o willing_o and_o patient_o endure_v that_o

now_o to_o work_v well_o love_n god_n and_o thy_o neighbour_n call_v upon_o god_n geve_v thank_n unto_o he_o praise_v he_o confess_v he_o these_o be_v good_a work_n in_o deed_n which_o flow_v out_o of_o this_o faith_n and_o this_o cheerfulness_n conceive_v in_o the_o heart_n for_o that_o we_o have_v remission_n of_o sin_n free_o by_o christ_n cross_n now_o what_o cross_n or_o affliction_n so_o

sin_n be_v pardon_v and_o the_o conscience_n deliver_v from_o the_o burden_n and_o sting_v of_o sin_n then_o may_v a_o christian_a bear_v all_o thing_n easy_o because_o he_o feel_v all_o thing_n within_o sweet_a and_o comfortable_a therefore_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v all_o thing_n willing_o but_o when_o a_o man_n walk_v in_o his_o own_o righteousness_n what_o so_o ever_o he_o do_v be_v grievous_a and_o tedious_a unto_o he_o because_o he_o do_v it_o unwilling_o we_o therefore_o do_v make_v this_o definition_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n that_o he_o be_v a_o right_a christian_n to_o who_o god_n impute_v not_o his_o sin_n christian_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n this_o doctrine_n bring_v great_a consolation_n to_o poor_a afflict_a conscience_n in_o serious_a and_o inward_a

righteousness_n for_o christ_n sake_n law_n also_o that_o a_o christian_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o the_o law_n and_o sin_n special_o in_o the_o time_n of_o tentation_n for_o in_o that_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n he_o be_v above_o the_o law_n and_o sin_n for_o he_o have_v christ_n the_o lord_n of_o the_o law_n present_a and_o enclose_v in_o his_o heart_n as_o we_o have_v say_v even_o as_o a_o ring_n have_v a_o jewel_n or_o precious_a stone_n enclose_v in_o it_o therefore_o when_o the_o law_n accuse_v and_o sin_n terrify_v he_o he_o look_v upon_o christ_n and_o when_o he_o have_v apprehend_v he_o by_o faith_n he_o have_v present_a with_o he_o the_o conqueror_n of_o the_o law_n sin_n death_n and_o the_o devil_n who_o reign_v and_o rule_v over_o they_o so_o that_o they_o can_v not_o hurt_v he_o wherefore_o a_o christian_a man_n if_o you_o define_v he_o right_o be_v free_a from_o all_o law_n and_o be_v not_o subject_a unto_o any_o creature_n either_o within_o or_o without_o in_o that_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n i_o say_v and_o not_o in_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o that_o he_o have_v his_o conscience_n adorn_v and_o bewtify_v

he_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v pardon_v in_o like_a manner_n they_o bold_o pronounce_v sentence_n against_o the_o pope_n pope_n that_o he_o be_v condemn_v with_o all_o his_o

neither_o do_v this_o way_n lead_v we_o to_o heaven_n for_o i_o can_v not_o say_v he_o by_o my_o work_n go_v before_o grace_n deserve_v grace_n nor_o by_o my_o work_n follow_v grace_n deserve_v
