upon_o the_o space_n of_o time_n between_o a_o profane_a man_n profaneness_n and_o his_o justification_n or_o the_o quantity_n of_o his_o sorrow_n these_o thing_n be_v of_o another_o debate_n i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v matter_n of_o offence_n to_o the_o heathen_n in_o that_o they_o teach_v though_o a_o man_n have_v never_o be_v so_o wicked_a yet_o if_o he_o do_v receive_v christ_n he_o shall_v be_v pardon_v and_o how_o soon_o this_o may_v be_v do_v it_o be_v as_o god_n please_v but_o there_o be_v a_o alteration_n of_o the_o man_n nature_n at_o that_o time_n also_o and_o chrysostome_n indeed_o have_v such_o a_o passage_n upon_o that_o scripture_n the_o righteous_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n rom._n 1._o by_o faith_n only_o a_o man_n have_v remission_n

also_o of_o another_o nature_n therefore_o let_v we_o see_v what_o prejudicial_a inference_n they_o gather_v from_o this_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n i_o know_v the_o proper_a place_n of_o handle_v this_o will_v come_v when_o we_o speak_v of_o that_o point_n but_o yet_o to_o give_v some_o antidote_n against_o their_o error_n i_o will_v name_v some_o few_o as_o 1._o deny_v they_o to_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 that_o a_o profane_a ungodly_a man_n if_o believe_a shall_v be_v justify_v we_o say_v this_o proposition_n suppose_v a_o impossibility_n that_o faith_n in_o christ_n or_o close_v with_o he_o can_v

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 make_v a_o man_n if_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o take_v christ_n and_o to_o close_v with_o christ_n he_o shall_v be_v pardon_v which_o we_o say_v be_v a_o contradiction_n for_o how_o can_v a_o enemy_n 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 purchase_v and_o obtain_v all_o grace_n antecedent_o to_o we_o in_o their_o sense_n will_v as_o necessary_o infer_v that_o a_o drunkard_n abide_v a_o drunkard_n shall_v be_v save_v as_o well_o as_o 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
