SECT. 7.

5. VVE may also observe these differences betwixt the Law and the Gospel; as 1. In the knowledge and manifestati∣on thereof, for to the Morall Law we have some directions by the Law of Nature, but the knowledge of faith in Christ by the Gos∣pel, is revealed by grace. 2. The Law teacheth what we should be, but by faith in Christ, we are made that wch the Law prescribeth: which the Gospel ffecteth in us. 3. The conditions are unlike, the Law tyeth the Promise of eternall life to the conditions of fulfilling the Law in our selves, the Gospel to the conditions of faith, apprehending the rghteousnesse of Christ; the one is Lex ti∣moris, the law of feare, and the other is Lex amoris, the law of love, which hath also a three-fold difference: as 1. The Law of feare maketh the observers thereof servile, but the Law of love maketh them free. 2. The Law of feare is not willingly kept, but by constraint, but the Law of love is willingly observed and kept. 3. The one is hard and heavie, the other is easie and light.
