The Gofpel of the Ceremonial Uncleanneffes, &c. ed, do not refute him : Thou canit not difpleafe him more, then by fo doing ; but fly for Refuge thither, as a poor unclean guilty Crea- ture, venture all on the infinite cleanfing Power and Virtue, that is in the Blood of Jefus Chrilt. Vfe 6. See the Bondage and Burdenromnefs of the legal Adminiflration. They could fcarce be fick, but they became unclean : They could not touch fo many Creatures, but they were forthwith Unclean ; and be- ing Unclean, might not come into the Temple, or publick Society ;. and in force Cafes were Phut up. They had Porters to keep out them that were Unclean in any thing, z Chron. 2.3. 19. That they ¡hould not enter inat the Gates of the Houfe of the Lord. Let us biefs God that we aredelivered from this Yoke of Bondage. An Advertifement to the READER. THE attentive Reader will quickly obferve, that here it nothing up- on that Head of Vncleannefs by Ijfues, which according to the Author's propofed Method, fhould have been here treated of.

The like is to be obferved alfo concerning the foregoing Sermon on Circum-- cifion, which in this Book is at Pag. 173. It was Preached onOccafion of the Adminijtration of B.aptifm,. as appears by aPaffage in it,. Pag. 1.74 -.. And more then two Tears before it fell in the Author's ray in his . going over the Types ; yea, fundry Months before he. entred on. this. Courfe. and. Subject in his Minifirf, T H E
