A30137 A defence of the doctrine of justification, by faith in Jesus Christ: shewing, true Gospel-holiness flows from thence. Or, Mr. Fowler's pretended design of Christianity, proved to be nothing more then to trample under foot the blood of the Son of God and the idolizing of man's own righteousness. As also, how while he pretends to be a minister of the Church of England, he overthroweth the wholesom doctrine contained in the 10th. 11th. and 13th. of the Thirty Nine Articles of the same, and that he falleth in with the Quaker, and Romanist, against them. By John Bunyan. Bunyan, John, 1628-1688. 1673 (1673) Wing B5508; ESTC R215886 107,458 132

but_o to_o speak_v to_o this_o more_o anon_o perhaps_o you_o will_v say_v i_o deal_v not_o fair_o with_o you_o because_o you_o treat_v as_o of_o moral_a so_o of_o gospel_n or_o new_a testament_n law_n but_o to_o that_o i_o will_v answer_v at_o present_a that_o in_o this_o description_n of_o your_o holy_a principle_n which_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o your_o book_n whether_o the_o law_n be_v natural_a or_o spiritual_a moral_a or_o of_o grace_n the_o principle_n by_o which_o you_o do_v they_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o principle_n of_o nature_n the_o dictate_v of_o the_o humane_a nature_n and_o so_o such_o as_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n reach_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n any_o far_a than_o to_o make_v a_o judgement_n of_o they_o by_o that_o wisdom_n which_o be_v enmity_n with_o god_n as_o will_v far_o be_v see_v in_o my_o progress_n through_o your_o book_n indeed_o you_o make_v mention_n of_o divine_a law_n and_o that_o under_o two_o head_n 1._o such_o as_o be_v of_o a_o indispensible_a and_o eternal_a obligation_n as_o those_o pure_o moral_a 2._o such_o which_o you_o call_v positive_a precept_n in_o themselves_o of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n and_o absolute_o consider_v be_v neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a of_o those_o of_o this_o kind_n that_o we_o have_v under_o the_o gospel_n you_o say_v you_o know_v but_o three_o viz_o that_o of_o come_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n and_o the_o institution_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n page_z 7_o and_o page_z 9_o so_o then_o although_o you_o talk_v of_o gospel_n positive_a law_n and_o particular_o that_o of_o come_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n yet_o those_o which_o you_o call_v first_o principle_n of_o moral_n be_v of_o high_a concern_v with_o you_o and_o more_o indispensible_a by_o far_o than_o this_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n and_o in_o itself_o absolute_o consider_v be_v neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a but_o the_o other_o be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o matter_n but_o a_o little_a to_o gather_v you_o up_o the_o moral_n say_v you_o be_v indispensible_a and_o good_a in_o themselves_o but_o that_o of_o come_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n a_o thing_n indifferent_a and_o in_o itself_o neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a wherefore_o though_o in_o this_o your_o description_n you_o talk_v of_o confirm_v to_o all_o those_o good_a and_o practical_a principle_n that_o be_v make_v know_v either_o by_o revelation_n nature_n or_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n yet_o in_o this_o your_o obedience_n you_o reckon_v come_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n but_o a_o
