But to fulfill it]

To complete and accomplish it, for he ful∣filled* 1.1 all righteousnesse, and finished the work that was given him* 1.2 to do. A new commandement also gave he unto us, that we love one another: which love is the complement of the Law, and the supplement of the Gospel. Besides, Christ is the end of the Law to* 1.3 every one that beleeveth: and commandeth us no more, then he* 1.4 causeth us to do; yea, he doth all his works in us and for us, saith the Church, Isa 26. 12. Thus Christ still fulfills the Law in his people; into whose hearts he putteth a disposition answerable to the outward Law in all things: as in the wax is the same impres∣sion that was upon the seal. This is called the law of the minde, Rom. 7. and answereth the law of God without, as lead answers the mould, as tally answereth tally, as Indenture, Indenture. Heb. 8. 8 9, 10. with 2 Cor. 3. 2, 3. Rom. 6. 17.
