It is a sentence of the Law, which speaketh of perfect inherent righteousness, of eternal life given through the works of ⟨p. 101⟩the Law, of the contrary sins, and of the curse that is due unto them. Gal. 3. 10. So many as are of the works of Law, are under the curse; for it is written, cursed is he whosoever abideth not in all things, which are written in the book of the Law to do them. Matth. 3. 7. O generation of Vipers, who hath fore-warned you to flee from the anger to come? 10.
