if_o it_o be_v a_o work_n whereby_o thy_o neighbour_n receive_v any_o comfort_n or_o help_v in_o his_o person_n it_o be_v then_o so_o much_o the_o more_o profitable_a wherefore_o albeit_o that_o the_o

also_o the_o poor_a and_o that_o he_o shall_v do_v such_o like_a work_n although_o that_o his_o heart_n be_v not_o thorough_o such_o as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v rather_o than_o to_o do_v nothing_o

this_o world_n do_v great_a good_a to_o many_o that_o have_v not_o have_v such_o heart_n as_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v have_v because_o that_o their_o work_n do_v serve_v somewhat_o to_o his_o

it_o not_o to_o be_v evil_a the_o third_o to_o know_v in_o deed_n if_o god_o do_v condemn_v the_o wicked_a think_v although_o it_o be_v not_o put_v in_o execution_n and_o whether_o it_o do_v as_o much_o displease_v he_o as_o if_o the_o effect_n be_v join_v with_o it_o d._n as_o touch_v the_o first_o it_o be_v sure_a that_o if_o god_n have_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n he_o have_v the_o whole_a therefore_o it_o can_v be_v but_o that_o the_o heart_n do_v offer_v and_o present_v unto_o he_o the_o work_n that_o he_o require_v of_o he_o wherefore_o the_o work_n may_v not_o be_v separate_v from_o

fall_v into_o a_o other_o necessity_n whole_o contrary_a to_o the_o first_o for_o in_o the_o stead_n that_o before_o he_o do_v necessary_o good_a &_o be_v whole_o give_v to_o god_n for_o that_o of_o

of_o the_o evil_a into_o the_o which_o the_o good_a be_v change_v the_o which_o evil_a of_o his_o nature_n engender_v evil_a where_o as_o the_o good_a engender_v good_a we_o see_v the_o like_a again_o

faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n it_o follow_v then_o according_a to_o thy_o say_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o true_a foundation_n of_o the_o same_o ●_o p._n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v for_o we_o can_v lay_v hold_n upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n nor_o be_v assure_v that_o he_o be_v become_v our_o love_a and_o merciful_a father_n but_o only_o in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o jesus_n

christ_n when_o he_o believe_v in_o he_o p._n it_o be_v very_o true_a and_o therefore_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o very_a point_n which_o discern_v the_o christian_n religion_n from_o all_o other_o and_o the_o christian_n from_o all_o other_o people_n b._n m._n but_o see_v that_o the_o faith_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n whereby_o man_n believe_v to_o justification_n how_o can_v it_o distinguish_v the_o religion_n p._n i_o do_v not_o here_o speak_v propre_o of_o the_o distinction_n which_o be_v make_v by_o the_o outward_a confession_n which_o man_n make_v but_o of_o that_o which_o lie_v in_o the_o true_a foundation_n and_o in_o the_o proper_a substance_n of_o the_o religion_n which_o have_v his_o only_a foundation_n in_o god_n and_o in_o his_o word_n a_o albeit_o that_o under_o the_o

p._n that_o see_v that_o god_n can_v not_o be_v know_v such_o as_o he_o be_v but_o in_o jesus_n christ_n who_o soever_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v he_o in_o jesus_n christ_n know_v he_o not_o at_o all_o wherefore_o he_o forge_v to_o himself_o a_o other_o god_n than_o the_o true_a god._n m._n in_o what_o sort_n do_v he_o forge_v he_o p._n in_o so_o much_o as_o he_o make_v and_o pourtrait_v god_n not_o
