the_o object_n of_o faith_n not_o jesus_n christ_n that_o faith_n apprehend_v and_o we_o alone_o trust_v in_o but_o it_o be_v faith_n that_o justify_v we_o comprehensive_o take_v that_o be_v faith_n love_n charity_n good_a work_n and_o sincere_a obedience_n that_o be_v impute_v to_o we_o to_o our_o justification_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o that_o so_o far_o as_o you_o act_n in_o faith_n holiness_n and_o in_o sincere_a obedience_n so_o far_o you_o be_v justify_v for_o he_o positive_o affirm_v viz._n that_o our_o justification_n at_o present_a 18._o while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n be_v but_o partial_a imperfect_a and_o incomplete_a these_o be_v his_o word_n answ_n now_o if_o we_o be_v not_o perfect_o justify_v it_o follow_v than_o we_o be_v not_o perfect_o deliver_v from_o condemnation_n nor_o acquit_v from_o the_o gild_n of_o all_o sin_n 4.7_o and_o so_o not_o in_o a_o state_n of_o life_n nor_o make_v free_a indeed_o by_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o then_o also_o christ_n dove_n be_v not_o without_o spot_n 5.2_o nor_o undefiled_a in_o respect_n to_o justification_n and_o then_o also_o it_o follow_v as_o the_o papist_n say_v there_o be_v no_o assurance_n can_v be_v have_v or_o attain_v in_o this_o life_n or_o until_o death_n nor_o can_v we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v complete_a in_o christ_n beside_o it_o confound_v justification_n with_o sanctification_n
