6. It is abrogated in many accessories, and circumstantials. Even 1the Moral Law, considered in some particulars, is abrogated totally: as in the manner of writing, which was in tables of stone. We know the first tables were broken; and what became of the last, or how long they continued, none can tell: and this makes Paul use that opposition, 2 Cor. 3. 3. Not in tables of stone, but in the fleshly tables of the heart: Although this you must know, that the doctrine of the Gospel, as written with ink and paper, doth no more avail for any spiritual working, then the Law written in tables. Therefore the Apostle useth in that verse this phrase, [Not written with ink] as well as [Not in tables of stone.] And this is to be observed against the Antinomians, who to disparage the Law, may say, that was written in stones, what good can that do? May we not also say, she doctrine 2of the Gospel that is written in paper, and what can that do?
