CH A P. 4. What Law it is , by tjihich we are not- juffijied. 467 were not both to be jutlified one way : or that James & Paul do clearly con - tradidt other; neither of which mutt be faid. That James fpeaketh of an- other Law , than Paul fpeaketh of, cannot be made good. And therefore when our Adverfaries will prove from James , that we are jultified by works , their meaning is, that we are jultified by the Obfervation of the Ceremonial Law. 4. The feveral things mentioned of this Law , whereof the Apoflle fpea- keth , sheweth , that he is not (peaking of the Ceremonial Law only : as (1) 49m. 3: 19. It isa Law that Iloppeth all mouthcs, & whereby all the world becometh guilty before God : But this is not the Ceremonial Law, or the Jewish , or Mofes Law , under which the Gentiles were not , nor yet are. (z) Rom. 3: zo. It is rhat Law by which is the knowledge of fin : but this is not by the meet Ceremonial Law , as we fee Paul himfelf profefpiag Rom. 7: 7. (3) f_om. z: 13. It is that Law , the doers whereof shall be jufti- lied : But this can not be aflerted of the meet Ceremonial Law, or of Mo- fes's Law. (4) Rom. 3: 27. It is that Law , which Both not exclude boafling: but it cannot be faid , that the Law of Moles is only that Law. (5) Ron. 3: 31. It is that Law , that is not made void , through Faith. But this is not the Ceremonial Law; The Ceremonial Law is not eftablished by Faith. (6) Rom. 3: zS. It is that Law , juítification by which is inconfiflent with Sc. -oppofitto juftificatíonby Faith: but this is not the Ceremonial Law only. (7) R.9m. 4: 1, z. Iris that Law, by the works whereof Abraham, was not ju- ttified. But the Apoíiles argument from the Inflance of Abraham had not been pertinent, if no Law had here been underftood , but Mofes's Law ; which was not in being in Abraham's dayes. (S) Rpm. 4: 2. It is that Law , & works of obedience to it , that would give ground to man of glorying : But this is not true only of the Ceremonial Law. (9) Rpm. 4: 4. It is that Law , obedience to which is a working , and maketh the reward of debt But this cannot be faid only of the Ceremonial Law. (1o) Row. 4: 15. It is that Law that worketh wrath : But other Lawes do this, than the Ceremo- nial Law. (rr ) R,om. S: 3,4. It is that Law, that was weak through the flesh , and the Righteoulnefs of which was to be fulfilled in us : but this can- not be applied to the Ceremonial Law only. (It) Gal. 3: r o. It is that Law', of the works of which as many as are , are under the Curfe, and of which it is laid , curled is every one , that continueth not in all things , which are written in the Law to do them. But this agreeth not to the Ce: emonial Law only. (r3) Gal. 3: r 2. It is that Law , by the doing of which , man should live : But by pertedt obedience to the Law of Mofes alone life was not to be had. (:4) It is that Law, that coifed all tranfñreffours, & under the Curfe whereof all thofelay, for whom Chrift died. Gal. 3:13. But that is not the Ceremonial Law, which laid no Curie upoa the Gentiles. (15) Ephef : 2: 9. io. It is that Law , that enjoineth thole good works , which God hath be- fore ordained , that we ( even Gentiles) should walk in them : But that is not the Ceremonial Law. (16. It is that Law , the works whereof are in - confiflent with grace , as the ground of Eledlion: Rom. it: 6. But this is not Ceremonial Law only, elfe we mutt fay, that Eledtion is for works of the M m m Moral
