it_o be_v not_o every_o man_n that_o talk_v of_o grace_n do_v therefore_o set_v up_o scripture-grace_n who_o know_v not_o that_o the_o pelagian_n set_v up_o grace_n they_o determine_v that_o

you_o with_o the_o dispute_n in_o which_o place_n sanctification_n be_v mean_v now_o the_o antinomian_a he_o go_v upon_o that_o as_o true_a which_o the_o papist_n will_v calumniate_v we_o with_o

while_o we_o be_v sinner_n but_o 1._o if_o christ_n die_v for_o we_o while_o we_o be_v enemy_n why_o do_v they_o say_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v as_o great_a a_o enemy_n as_o enmity_n itself_o can_v

to_o christ_n close_o with_o christ_n so_o that_o this_o will_v prove_v more_o then_o in_o some_o place_n they_o will_v seem_v to_o allow_v beside_o christ_n die_v not_o only_o to_o justify_v but_o save_v we_o now_o will_v they_o hence_o therefore_o infer_v that_o profane_a man_n live_v so_o and_o die_v so_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o indeed_o the_o grand_a principle_n that_o christ_n have_v

justify_v but_o three_o to_o answer_v that_o place_n when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n die_v and_o rise_v again_o for_o sinner_n you_o must_v know_v that_o this_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o our_o pardon_n and_o salvation_n but_o beside_o this_o cause_n there_o be_v other_o cause_n instrumental_a that_o go_v to_o the_o whole_a work_n of_o justification_n therefore_o some_o divine_n as_o they_o speak_v of_o a_o conversion_n passive_a and_o active_a so_o also_o of_o a_o justification_n active_a and_o passive_a and_o passive_a they_o call_v when_o not_o only_o the_o meritorious_a

any_o application_n of_o christ_n death_n unto_o this_o or_o that_o soul_n therefore_o still_o you_o must_v carry_v this_o along_o with_o you_o that_o to_o that_o grand_a mercy_n of_o justification_n something_o be_v requisite_a as_o the_o efficient_a viz._n the_o grace_n of_o god_n something_o as_o meritorious_a viz._n christ_n suffering_n something_o as_o instrumental_a viz._n faith_n and_o
