I answer, All this may be granted, and nothing makes against 1this opinion: for none deny the Gospel, to be the instruments of holiness: But is not here a contradiction? The Author ⟨p. 205⟩before made the Gospel and a Promise all one, whereas here it doth command holiness and godliness. Is not this, with the Papists, to make the Gospel a new Law?
