but_o that_o we_o must_v confess_v our_o fault_n one_o to_o another_o that_o be_v reciprocal_o as_o say_v s._n james._n 5.16_o whereof_o it_o follow_v forsooth_o that_o if_o a_o woman_n prostitute_v herself_o to_o her_o curate_n confess_v her_o sin_n unto_o he_o her_o curate_n ought_v reciprocal_o to_o confess_v his_o sin_n to_o she_o and_o so_o to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o s._n james_n who_o in_o this_o place_n speak_v not_o of_o the_o people_n confess_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o priest_n but_o of_o that_o confession_n that_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o make_v to_o his_o neighbour_n after_o he_o have_v offend_v he_o and_o this_o be_v evident_a by_o that_o which_o he_o have_v add_v confess_v say_v he_o your_o offence_n one_o to_o another_o and_o pray_v you_o one_o for_o another_o for_o as_o we_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v for_o the_o priest_n only_o but_o for_o every_o one_o that_o stand_v in_o need_n so_o must_v we_o not_o confess_v ourselves_o to_o the_o priest_n only_o but_o to_o every_o one_o of_o the_o people_n who_o we_o have_v offend_v thus_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o s._n james_n equal_a as_o well_o for_o prayer_n as_o for_o confession_n xv._n demand_v that_o faith_n only_o justify_v answer_n this_o demand_n be_v fraudulent_a and_o doubtful_a or_o ambiguous_a first_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v expound_v whether_o he_o mean_v of_o justification_n before_o god_n or_o before_o man_n for_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n but_o before_o god_n have_v but_o two_o mean_n to_o be_v justify_v either_o by_o our_o own_o righteousness_n which_o be_v justification_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o another_o namely_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n we_o find_v in_o the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n ephes_n 2._o vers_fw-la 8._o and_o 9_o that_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n through_o faith_n not_o by_o work_n and_o galat._n 2._o vers_fw-la 9_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n now_o that_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o 1_o law_n he_o also_o understand_v the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n the_o whole_a course_n of_o the_o epistle_n do_v show_v for_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n he_o say_v curse_v be_v he_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o the_o word_n of_o this_o law_n which_o be_v a_o passage_n allege_v out_o of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o 27._o chapter_n of_o deuteromie_n wherein_o we_o have_v no_o mention_n but_o of_o the_o transgression_n against_o the_o moral_a law_n and_o in_o the_o five_o chapter_n he_o say_v that_o the_o whole_a law_n be_v fulfil_v in_o this_o only_a word_n thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o some_o jesuit_n do_v say_v that_o faith_n justify_v because_o it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o our_o regeneration_n as_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v that_o a_o man_n knowledge_n consist_v in_o know_v a_o a._n and_o a_o b._n because_o he_o begin_v by_o they_o but_o s._n paul_n phil._n 3.9_o and_o in_o many_o other_o place_n oppose_v the_o righteousness_n by_o the_o law_n to_o the_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n cut_v off_o this_o shift_n for_o as_o the_o righteousness_n by_o the_o law_n be_v the_o same_o which_o consist_v whole_o in_o the_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n even_o so_o the_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n be_v the_o same_o which_o consist_v whole_o in_o faith_n otherwise_o there_o be_v no_o opposition_n and_o in_o the_o four_o to_o the_o roman_n he_o maintain_v that_o abraham_n and_o david_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o work_n yet_o he_o speak_v of_o they_o not_o as_o when_o they_o begin_v or_o before_o they_o begin_v to_o be_v regenerate_v but_o when_o they_o be_v well_o forward_o in_o godliness_n namely_o when_o abraham_n offer_v his_o son_n and_o when_o david_n write_v the_o 32._o psalm_n in_o which_o psalm_n david_n say_v s._n paul_n declare_v that_o man_n beatitude_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o god_n impute_v unto_o he_o righteousness_n without_o work_n i'faith_o therefore_o can_v be_v without_o work_n yet_o do_v it_o justify_v alone_o and_o without_o work_n as_o our_o eye_n be_v not_o without_o our_o ear_n yet_o do_v they_o only_o see_v and_o that_o without_o any_o help_n of_o the_o ear_n xvi_o demand_v that_o when_o the_o fault_n of_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o the_o punishment_n also_o be_v take_v away_o answer_n this_o be_v likewise_o slanderous_a for_o we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o when_o god_n have_v pardon_v the_o fault_n all_o punishment_n be_v necessary_o take_v away_o but_o only_o that_o punishment_n which_o be_v satisfactory_a to_o god_n justice_n for_o there_o be_v punishment_n which_o serve_v to_o amend_v man_n yet_o not_o to_o pay_v god_n to_o correct_v our_o unjustice_n yet_o not_o to_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n and_o these_o be_v exercise_n and_o trial_n not_o payment_n which_o can_v be_v make_v after_o the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v and_o this_o do_v we_o prove_v 1._o because_o god_n be_v no_o mocker_n neither_o do_v he_o contradict_v himself_o but_o it_o be_v a_o mockery_n to_o forgive_v a_o man_n his_o sin_n and_o not_o the_o punishment_n of_o his_o sin_n to_o tell_v he_o i_o forgive_v thou_o thy_o debt_n not_o the_o payment_n of_o thy_o debt_n our_o sin_n be_v debt_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n the_o payment_n whereof_o be_v punishment_n 2._o again_o because_o jesus_n christ_n pay_v not_o otherwise_o for_o our_o fault_n but_o by_o bear_v the_o pain_n he_o therefore_o pay_v for_o the_o pain_n and_o there_o be_v but_o one_o payment_n for_o both_o it_o be_v therefore_o the_o forge_n of_o a_o new_a gospel_n to_o imagine_v that_o he_o pay_v more_o for_o the_o one_o then_o for_o the_o other_o for_o if_o he_o have_v full_o pay_v for_o the_o fault_n than_o also_o for_o the_o pain_n and_o if_o he_o have_v full_o pay_v for_o our_o pain_n the_o same_o be_v for_o our_o acquittal_n and_o to_o discharge_v us._n 3_o likewise_o because_o god_n be_v just_a it_o be_v injustice_n to_o punish_v a_o man_n with_o satisfactory_a pain_n that_o have_v no_o fault_n &_o so_o consequent_o be_v not_o faulty_a the_o fault_n therefore_o be_v take_v away_o the_o pain_n be_v also_o take_v away_o xvii_o demand_v that_o god_n create_v not_o all_o man_n to_o a_o like_a
