because_o the_o apostle_n oppose_v work_n to_o faith_n for_o this_o cause_n faith_n be_v to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o it_o be_v a_o relation_n or_o a_o hand_n to_o apply_v a_o plaster_n to_o the_o

james_n indeed_o say_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o not_o by_o faith_n only_o but_o that_o i_o may_v pass_v by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o some_o that_o will_v have_v this_o to_o

to_o be_v understand_v of_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o be_v destitute_a of_o good_a work_n and_o which_o be_v dead_a without_o they_o which_o very_a thing_n we_o also_o assert_v when_o we_o do_v by_o no_o mean_n separate_v work_n from_o faith_n but_o always_o profess_v that_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v join_v with_o good_a work_n or_o in_o short_a that_o a_o active_a and_o work_a faith_n render_v we_o just_a before_o god_n tribunal_n therefore_o faith_n only_o justify_v we_o but_o yet_o that_o faith_n must_v not_o be_v alone_o or_o separate_v from_o good_a work_n no_o otherwise_o then_o as_o the_o

so_o much_o that_o the_o universal_a church_n be_v to_o be_v call_v invisible_a from_o its_o outward_a non-appearance_n to_o man_n but_o from_o the_o internal_a quality_n of_o it_o because_o though_o many_o belong_v to_o the_o outward_a communion_n yet_o god_n only_o know_v who_o be_v he_o and_o from_o hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o i_o to_o give_v a_o answer_n
