Beleeuers are Free, and not Free; therefore they* 1.1 cry both, who shall Free me from Sin? Rom. 7, 24. and also they tryumphantly say; Christ hath freede me from the Law of Sin. Rom. 8, 2. They are freed wholy from the guilt and punnishment of Sinne, but from corruption of sinne, they are freed in part onely, so farre, as that it doe not raigne ouer them.
