when_o i_o have_v first_o brief_o declare_v the_o true_a &_o ancient_a sense_n &_o meaning_n of_o those_o usual_a and_o solemn_a word_n the_o lord_n sit_v at_o the_o self_n same_o table_n with_o his_o

that_o we_o receive_v they_o corporal_o may_v live_v but_o the_o universal_a canonical_a scripture_n teach_v that_o our_o life_n or_o salvation_n &_o our_o justification_n consist_v in_o faith_n

the_o thirteen_o chapter_n to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o do_v not_o so_o take_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n but_o put_v it_o for_o the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o that_o

these_o wrangler_n who_o will_v never_o be_v without_o store_n of_o such_o sophistical_a shift_n we_o do_v again_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_a argument_n to_o show_v you_o how_o and_o in_o what_o sense_n life_n and_o justification_n be_v attribute_v to_o work_n they_o that_o be_v well_o exercise_v in_o the_o read_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o 〈…〉_o they_o may_v reconcile_v the_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o seem_v at_o a_o blush_v to_o be_v at_o discord_n do_v teach_v that_o faith_n &_o work_v in_o very_a deed_n be_v not_o separate_v one_o from_o another_o for_o the_o

in_o all_o thing_n to_o do_v service_n to_o god_o his_o maker_n therefore_o for_o the_o unseparable_a knot_n betwixt_o faith_n and_o good_a work_n which_o always_o keep_v company_n and_o attend_v upon_o faith_n we_o say_v that_o justification_n be_v sometime_o somewhat_o unproper_o attribute_v to_o work_n which_o be_v somewhat_o more_o proper_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n but_o most_o

this_o more_o manifest_a in_o true_a faith_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v reconciliation_n and_o obedience_n reconciliation_n because_o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v and_o very_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o for_o christ_n his_o sake_n by_o who_o we_o be_v adopt_v into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o obedience_n because_o they_o that_o be_v reconcile_v do_v whole_o yield_v themselves_o to_o he_o to_o who_o they_o be_v reconcile_v with_o earnest_a desire_n and_o zeal_n to_o do_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n so_o then_o we_o say_v that_o faith_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o justify_n and_o the_o obey_v faith_n of_o the_o justify_n faith_n saint_n paul_n make_v mention_v where_o he_o say_v be_v justify_v by_o say_v we_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n through_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o we_o be_v reconcile_v again_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o the_o obey_a faith_n where_o he_o say_v know_v you_o not_o that_o to_o who_o you_o give_v yourselves_o as_o servant_n to_o obey_v his_o servant_n you_o be_v to_o who_o you_o do_v obey_v whether_o it_o be_v of_o sin_n unto_o death_n or_o of_o obedience_n unto_o

you_o to_o eternal_a life_n and_o not_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n which_o turn_v unto_o death_n now_o therefore_o justification_n be_v proper_o attribute_v to_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o be_v improper_o ascribe_v to_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n or_o righteousness_n of_o obedience_n for_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n be_v of_o the_o reconcile_n and_o without_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n obedience_n shall_v not_o be_v call_v righteousness_n to_o which_o this_o also_o be_v to_o be_v add_v that_o they_o which_o be_v justify_v do_v not_o put_v any_o confidence_n in_o this_o obedience_n as_o that_o which_o be_v always_o spot_a in_o this_o world_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o flesh_n to_o this_o also_o agree_v this_o other_o explication_n which_o i_o will_v here_o annex_v the_o most_o proper_a work_n of_o faith_n be_v purification_n and_o sanctification_n for_o saint_n peter_n do_v express_o say_v that_o by_o faith_n our_o heart_n be_v

here_o any_o danger_n divide_v of_o divide_v christ_n neither_o divide_v we_o christ_n person_n with_o nestorius_n since_o we_o defend_v the_o propriety_n of_o both_o nature_n in_o christ_n against_o the_o eutychian_n while_o christ_n our_o lord_n in_o body_n be_v yet_o conversant_a upon_o the_o earth_n he_o himself_o witness_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o nevertheless_o he_o be_v also_o in_o the_o

and_o that_o we_o communicate_v with_o he_o yet_o nevertheless_o we_o affirm_v that_o in_o his_o body_n he_o remain_v in_o heaven_n where_o he_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n and_o so_o let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o scripture_n of_o this_o matter_n i_o have_v reason_v at_o large_a where_o i_o have_v entreat_v of_o one_o person_n and_o

we_o examine_v and_o weigh_v what_o they_o deliver_v body_n unto_o we_o touch_v the_o eat_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o also_o what_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n do_v teach_v to_o be_v think_v of_o that_o eat_n what_o say_v they_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v the_o same_o most_o sure_o and_o full_o he_o perform_v they_o add_v but_o he_o promise_v that_o he_o will_v give_v we_o his_o true_a
