THE LAW A RULE OF LIFE.

The law is cast behind the back of many, when it should be carried

in the hand and heart that we might do it, to the end the gospel

which we profess might he glorified in the world. Let then the law

be with thee to love it, and do it in the spirit of the gospel, that

thou be not unfruitful in thy life. Let the law, I say, be with

thee, not as it comes from Moses, but from Christ; for though thou

art set free from the law as a covenant for life, yet thou still art

under the law to Christ; and it is to be received by thee, as out of

his hand, to be a rule for thy conversation in the world.
