Christ inviting sinners to come to him for rest

Now for the burden of the Law; That the Law compared to a burden will appear by that expression which you have in Rom. 6.14. For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under, the law, but under grace; He Speaks to those that were delivered, and faith, they were not now under the Law, there was a time indeed that they were under the law; the Law lay upon them as a heavy burden; but they came afterwards under grace, & they had a yoke there also (even grace it self brings some kind of yoke) but not such a yoke as the Law doth. Christ himself saith, take my yoke presently; but the yoke is very easy in comparison of the yoke of the Law.

Now for the burden of the Law; That the Law compared to a burden wil appeare by that expression which you have in Rom. 6.14. For sin shal not have dominion over you, for you are not under, the law, but under grace; He Speakes to those that were delivered, and faith, they were not now under the Law, there was a time indeed that they were under the law; the Law lay upon them as a heavy burden; but they came afterwards under grace, & they had a yoke there also (even grace it self brings some kind of yoake) but not such a yoake as the Law doth. Christ himself saith, take my yoak presently; but the yoke is very easie in comparison of the yoke of the Law.

Now that I might open what the burden under the Law is; which if a sinner comes to understand, any soul once comes to understand; it is impossible but it must be laden and burdened; it will be a load upon them, a heavy load to those that understand it; even the burden of the law. Therefore for the understanding of it which I look upon as exceeding necessary, or else you cannot understand Christ aright; for it is not enough for us barely to understand Christ; but we must understand Christ as one that is the great Saviour, to deliver us from the Law; one that comes to give rest and ease to us from the Law; Now except we understand the yoke, and burden of the Law, we cannot understand the worth of Christ in coming to give us ease and rest from it.
