thing_n nobis_fw-la say_v saint_n augustine_n the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n not_o our_o righteousness_n in_o he_o not_o in_o us._n so_o then_o look_v how_o christ_n be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o

even_o our_o adversary_n be_v witness_n our_o christian_a reform_a religion_n direct_v man_n the_o safe_a way_n to_o heaven_n christ._n 6._o it_o be_v for_o the_o only_a merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n

and_o be_v a_o concomitant_a of_o salvation_n our_o creed_n may_v teach_v we_o where_o we_o be_v direct_v to_o believe_v as_o special_a privilege_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n the_o forgiveness_n

of_o life_n it_o be_v in_o a_o word_n the_o renew_a image_n of_o god_n consist_v in_o knowledge_n righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n you_o may_v see_v it_o in_o the_o lesson_n that_o grace_n teach_v all_o her_o child_n 14._o which_o be_v to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n &_o to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n justification_n and_o sanctification_n differ_v in_o four_o point_n 1._o justification_n be_v before_o sanctification_n in_o nature_n though_o both_o be_v together_o in_o time_n for_o as_o the_o branch_n must_v first_o be_v in_o the_o vine_n before_o it_o can_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o sap_n bring_v forth_o fruit_n 15.4_o so_o a_o man_n must_v be_v first_o in_o christ_n by_o faith_n before_o he_o can_v be_v a_o new_a creature_n and_o so_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o holiness_n 2._o justification_n be_v without_o we_o in_o christ_n as_o be_v say_v before_o but_o sanctification_n be_v within_o we_o inherent_a and_o infuse_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 3._o justification_n be_v that_o whereby_o we_o stand_v absolve_v and_o make_v just_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o by_o sanctification_n we_o be_v only_o declare_v to_o be_v just_a 4._o justification_n do_v quiet_a the_o conscience_n by_o reconcile_a it_o 5.1_o and_o make_v it_o at_o peace_n with_o god_n for_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n but_o sanctification_n can_v do_v so_o because_o our_o best_a action_n be_v imperfect_a and_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o defect_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o pardon_n 130.3_o if_o thou_o lord_n shall_v mark_v iniquity_n o_o lord_n who_o shall_v stand_v now_o that_o sanctification_n be_v also_o the_o church_n peculiar_a hear_v the_o apostle_n show_v the_o difference_n between_o man_n out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o such_o as_o be_v in_o it_o speak_v of_o their_o profaneness_n before_o their_o call_n he_o say_v and_o such_o be_v some_o of_o you_o 6.11_o but_o tell_v they_o of_o their_o change_n he_o add_v but_o you_o be_v wash_v but_o you_o be_v sanctify_v it_o be_v therefore_o the_o stile_n or_o addition_n of_o the_o church_n unto_o the_o church_n of_o god_n say_v saint_n paul_n 1.2_o which_o be_v at_o corinth_n to_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v in_o christ_n jesus_n call_v to_o be_v saint_n and_o we_o believe_v in_o our_o creed_n the_o holy_a catholic_a church_n the_o communion_n of_o saint_n that_o it_o do_v accompany_v salvation_n 6.22_o be_v more_o than_o manifest_a for_o without_o it_o no_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o lord_n but_o be_v ●reed_v from_o sin_n we_o have_v our_o fruit_n in_o holiness_n and_o the_o end_n everlasting_a life_n therefore_o we_o must_v know_v that_o sanctification_n be_v such_o a_o necessary_a antecedent_n though_o no_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o salvation_n that_o notwithstanding_o no_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v for_o the_o merit_n of_o it_o yet_o no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v without_o it_o because_o true_a save_a faith_n the_o instrumental_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o salvation_n 5.6_o

that_o rome_n be_v and_o ever_o be_v when_o it_o be_v at_o the_o best_a but_o a_o particular_a church_n and_o member_n of_o the_o universal_a as_o other_o church_n be_v and_o therefore_o can_v no_o more_o challenge_v the_o dependence_n of_o other_o church_n upon_o it_o than_o they_o can_v subject_v it_o to_o any_o of_o they_o see_v how_o clear_o and_o full_o s._n paul_n write_v to_o the_o

as_o well_o as_o other_o church_n this_o the_o apostle_n intimate_v by_o that_o severe_a caveat_n which_o he_o g●ueth_v to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n among_o other_o gentile_n 22._o be_v not_o

we_o see_v that_o rome_n have_v no_o more_o immunity_n from_o error_n then_o any_o other_o church_n no_o no_o more_o than_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n rome_n no_o more_o than_o jerusalem_n and_o that_o god_n do_v tie_v himself_o to_o none_o but_o with_o condition_n if_o they_o do_v answer_v his_o goodness_n to_o they_o with_o perseverance_n and_o continuance_n in_o his_o goodness_n and_o
