4 Jn what the Law differeth from the Gospel.
THIS question hath been already handled in the se∣cond part, Of mans deliuerie;* 1.1 and therefore needeth here no long discourse. The Lawe differeth from the Gospell, 1. Jn the manner of their manifestation: The Lawe is knowen, by nature; the gospel was manifested from aboue. 2. Jn their matter or doctrine. The Lawe teacheth what wee ought to bee, and what to perfourme: The gospell teacheth how we may be such, namely, in Christ. 3. In their promises. The Law promiseth eternal life and al good things, with a condition of our owne proper and perfect righteousnesse and obedience remaining in vs: The gospel promiseth the same with a condition of faith and beliefe in christ, where∣by we embrace an others obediēce performed for vs, to wit, the obedience of Christ. Now with this condition of faith is ioined by an indissoluble knot and bond the condition of new obedience.
