the_o remnant_n and_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v remain_v behind_o and_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o christ_n suffer_v for_o we_o leave_v behind_o he_o a_o example_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v follow_v his_o trace_n and_o footstep_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v that_o he_o by_o suffer_v fulfil_v the_o remnant_n which_o be_v behind_o after_o this_o again_o they_o allege_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n where_o objection_n he_o say_v if_o i_o have_v all_o faith_n so_o that_o i_o can_v remove_v mountain_n out_o of_o their_o place_n and_o yet_o have_v not_o charity_n i_o be_o nothing_o for_o upon_o this_o they_o infer_v therefore_o not_o faith_n only_o but_o also_o charity_n yea_o rather_o charity_n than_o faith_n do_v justify_v but_o we_o say_v that_o paul_n in_o this_o sentence_n do_v neither_o deny_v that_o faith_n alone_o do_v justify_v nor_o yet_o do_v attribute_v the_o justification_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o charity_n for_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n or_o when_o we_o make_v faith_n the_o cause_n of_o justification_n which_o thing_n must_v be_v by_o often_o repetition_n beat_v into_o our_o memory_n we_o do_v not_o understand_v that_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v a_o virtue_n in_o we_o do_v work_v and_o by_o the_o quality_n that_o stick_v to_o we_o do_v merit_n righteousness_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o so_o often_o as_o we_o make_v mention_n of_o faith_n we_o understand_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n exhibit_v in_o christ_n which_o be_v through_o faith_n free_o apply_v to_o we_o and_o receive_v as_o the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o in_o that_o sense_n do_v paul_n use_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n when_o he_o affirm_v that_o faith_n do_v justify_v but_o in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o thirteen_o chapter_n to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o do_v not_o so_o take_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n but_o put_v it_o for_o the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o that_o which_o follow_v where_o he_o say_v so_o that_o i_o can_v remove_v mountain_n that_o faith_n do_v not_o comprehend_v christ_n whole_o but_o only_o the_o power_n in_o show_v of_o miracle_n and_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v sometime_o in_o a_o unjust_a man_n and_o a_o hypocrite_n as_o it_o be_v in_o judas_n iscariot_n to_o who_o the_o faith_n of_o miracle_n profit_v nothing_o because_o he_o be_v without_o the_o justify_n faith_n which_o faith_n be_v never_o without_o but_o of_o itself_o engender_v charity_n again_o whereas_o they_o object_v that_o say_n out_o of_o the_o gospel_n of_o

a_o free_a gift_n therefore_o we_o be_v join_v to_o god_n by_o mere_a and_o free_a grace_n it_o follow_v in_o john_n and_o we_o have_v see_v and_o do_v testify_v that_o the_o father_n have_v send_v

now_o who_o know_v not_o that_o he_o be_v send_v unto_o we_o of_o the_o father_n by_o the_o mere_a and_o only_a grace_n of_o god_n it_o follow_v now_o how_o that_o grace_n be_v receive_v whosoever_o

these_o wrangler_n who_o will_v never_o be_v without_o store_n of_o such_o sophistical_a shift_n we_o do_v again_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_a argument_n to_o show_v you_o how_o and_o in_o what_o sense_n life_n and_o justification_n be_v attribute_v to_o work_n they_o that_o be_v well_o exercise_v in_o the_o read_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o 〈…〉_o they_o may_v reconcile_v the_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o seem_v at_o a_o blush_v to_o be_v at_o discord_n do_v teach_v that_o faith_n &_o work_v in_o very_a deed_n be_v not_o separate_v one_o from_o another_o for_o the_o same_o holy_a spirit_n which_o give_v faith_n do_v therewithal_o also_o regenerate_v the_o understanding_n and_o will_n so_o that_o the_o faithful_a do_v ardent_o desire_v and_o do_v his_o endeavour_n in_o all_o thing_n to_o do_v service_n to_o god_o his_o maker_n therefore_o for_o the_o unseparable_a knot_n betwixt_o faith_n and_o good_a work_n which_o always_o keep_v company_n and_o attend_v upon_o faith_n we_o say_v that_o justification_n be_v sometime_o somewhat_o unproper_o attribute_v to_o work_n which_o be_v somewhat_o more_o proper_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n but_o most_o proper_o of_o all_o to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o christ_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n who_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n the_o foundation_n &_o subject_n of_o our_o faith_n i_o will_v yet_o assay_v to_o make_v this_o more_o manifest_a in_o true_a faith_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v reconciliation_n and_o obedience_n reconciliation_n because_o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v and_o very_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o for_o christ_n his_o sake_n by_o who_o we_o be_v adopt_v into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o obedience_n because_o they_o that_o be_v reconcile_v do_v whole_o yield_v themselves_o to_o he_o to_o who_o they_o be_v reconcile_v with_o earnest_a desire_n and_o zeal_n to_o do_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n so_o then_o we_o say_v that_o faith_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o justify_n and_o the_o obey_v faith_n of_o the_o justify_n faith_n saint_n paul_n make_v mention_v where_o he_o say_v be_v justify_v by_o say_v we_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n through_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o we_o be_v reconcile_v again_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o the_o obey_a faith_n where_o he_o say_v know_v you_o not_o that_o to_o who_o you_o give_v yourselves_o as_o servant_n to_o obey_v his_o servant_n you_o be_v to_o who_o you_o do_v obey_v whether_o it_o be_v of_o sin_n unto_o death_n or_o of_o obedience_n unto_o

you_o to_o eternal_a life_n and_o not_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n which_o turn_v unto_o death_n now_o therefore_o justification_n be_v proper_o attribute_v to_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o be_v improper_o ascribe_v to_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n or_o righteousness_n of_o obedience_n for_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n be_v of_o the_o reconcile_n and_o without_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n obedience_n shall_v not_o be_v call_v righteousness_n to_o which_o this_o also_o be_v to_o be_v add_v that_o they_o which_o be_v justify_v do_v not_o put_v any_o confidence_n in_o this_o obedience_n as_o that_o which_o be_v always_o spot_a in_o this_o world_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o flesh_n to_o this_o also_o agree_v this_o other_o explication_n which_o i_o will_v here_o annex_v the_o most_o proper_a work_n of_o faith_n be_v purification_n and_o sanctification_n for_o saint_n peter_n do_v express_o say_v that_o by_o faith_n our_o heart_n be_v

1_o jesus_n for_o again_o the_o same_o s._n peter_n say_v you_o know_v that_o you_o be_v redeem_v not_o with_o transitory_a thing_n as_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o with_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o christ_n as_o of_o a_o unspotted_a lamb_n saint_n paul_n say_v you_o be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n through_o the_o oblation_n of_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n once_o make_v

cleanse_v we_o
sinner_n and_o that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v justify_v free_o and_o not_o for_o his_o own_o merit_n sake_n the_o apostle_n go_v forth_o and_o say_v for_o what_o say_v the_o scripture_n abraham_n believe_v in_o god_n and_o it_o be_v reckon_v unto_o he_o for_o righteousness_n two_o thing_n be_v here_o affirm_v first_o that_o abraham_n believe_v in_o god_n second_o that_o that_o be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n by_o this_o it_o follow_v that_o abraham_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o work_n and_o that_o do_v the_o apostle_n prove_v after_o this_o manner_n to_o he_o that_o by_o work_n do_v merit_v righteousness_n righteousness_n be_v not_o impute_v but_o to_o abraham_n be_v righteousness_n impute_v therefore_o he_o merit_v not_o righteousness_n by_o work_n again_o to_o he_o very_o that_o work_v not_o but_o believe_v his_o faith_n be_v count_v for_o righteousness_n but_o abraham_n believe_v in_o god_n therefore_o his_o faith_n be_v reckon_v for_o

to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n but_o faith_n rest_v upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n what_o place_n then_o shall_v grace_v and_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n have_v leave_v unto_o they_o if_o we_o by_o work_n do_v merit_n justification_n what_o shall_v i_o need_v to_o believe_v that_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n i_o shall_v be_v justify_v if_o god_n by_o my_o work_n be_v at_o one_o with_o i_o again_o who_o for_o my_o sin_n be_v angry_a with_o i_o final_o salvation_n and_o righteousness_n be_v promise_v of_o god_n but_o then_o the_o promise_n end_v when_o our_o own_o

give_v the_o inheritance_n to_o abraham_n by_o promise_n therefore_o that_o the_o promise_n may_v remain_v stable_n faith_n justify_v and_o not_o merit_n again_o in_o the_o four_o chapter_n to_o the_o

only_a that_o be_v of_o the_o law_n but_o to_o that_o also_o that_o be_v of_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n he_o rehearse_v here_o two_o cause_n for_o which_o he_o attribute_v justification_n to_o

the_o promise_n and_o salvation_n may_v remain_v steadfast_a and_o that_o it_o may_v come_v upon_o the_o gentile_n also_o but_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v give_v to_o the_o gentile_n if_o it_o be_v due_a only_o to_o the_o law_n and_o circuncision_n because_o the_o gentile_n lack_v they_o both_o final_o the_o hope_n of_o our_o salvation_n aught_o to_o be_v steadfast_o establish_v but_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v sure_o ground_v or_o safe_o preserve_v if_o it_o be_v attribute_v to_o our_o own_o work_n or_o merit_n for_o in_o they_o be_v always_o something_o want_v but_o in_o god_n and_o in_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n can_v nothing_o be_v lack_v therefore_o our_o salvation_n be_v sure_o confirm_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v of_o and_o assure_o certain_a if_o that_o we_o seek_v for_o it_o by_o faith_n in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o be_v our_o righteousness_n and_o salvation_n to_o all_o these_o i_o will_v yet_o add_v a_o other_o testimony_n out_o of_o saint_n paul_n which_o be_v in_o deed_n both_o most_o evident_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v perceive_v in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o ephestan_n he_o say_v by_o grace_n be_v you_o save_v through_o faith_n and_o that_o not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n not_o of_o work_n jest_n any_o man_n shall_v boast_n himself_o for_o we_o be_v the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n into_o good_a work_n which_o god_n have_v before_o ordain_v that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o they_o more_o than_o this_o i_o will_v not_o say_v neither_o will_v i_o at_o large_a expound_v the_o word_n of_o paul_n for_o these_o testimony_n be_v more_o clear_a than_o the_o noon_n day_n and_o do_v most_o evident_o testify_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o any_o work_n but_o reverend_a brethren_n in_o the_o work_n lord_n good_a work_n here_o come_v into_o no_o jeopardy_n to_o be_v little_o set_v by_o because_o of_o this_o doctrine_n which_o teach_v that_o faith_n alone_o do_v justify_v thus_o do_v the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n teach_v why_o then_o shall_v not_o we_o teach_v so_o too_o as_o for_o they_o that_o think_v this_o doctrine_n whereby_o we_o do_v constant_o affirm_v that_o faith_n alone_o without_o work_n do_v justify_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o religion_n let_v they_o blame_v the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n &_o not_o find_v fault_n with_o we_o moreover_o whereas_o justify_v we_o say_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o or_o else_o by_o faith_n without_o work_n we_o do_v not_o say_v as_o many_o think_v we_o do_v that_o faith_n be_v post_o alone_o or_o utter_o destitute_a of_o good_a work_n for_o where_o soever_o faith_n be_v there_o also_o it_o show_v itself_o by_o good_a work_n because_o the_o righteous_a can_v not_o but_o work_v righteousness_n but_o before_o he_o do_v work_v righteousness_n that_o be_v to_o say_v good_a work_n he_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v righteous_a therefore_o the_o righteous_a do_v not_o attain_v to_o righteousness_n that_o go_v before_o by_o work_n that_o follow_v after_o wherefore_o that_o righteousness_n be_v attribute_v to_o grace_n for_o the_o faithful_a be_v free_o by_o grace_n justify_v in_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o say_n the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o his_o faith_n and_o after_o that_o they_o be_v justify_v they_o begin_v to_o bring_v forth_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n therefore_o in_o this_o discourse_n i_o mean_v not_o to_o overthrow_v good_a work_n which_o have_v their_o due_a place_n and_o dignity_n in_o the_o church_n among_o the_o faithful_a before_o the_o face_n of_o god_n but_o my_o mind_n be_v by_o all_o the_o mean_n i_o may_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o increase_v of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v overthrow_v and_o tread_v under_o foot_n when_o we_o join_v our_o merit_n and_o work_n to_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o faith_n by_o which_o we_o take_v hold_v on_o christ_n for_o what_o can_v be_v more_o manifest_a than_o this_o say_n of_o the_o bless_a apostle_n if_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n than_o not_o now_o work_v for_o than_o grace_n be_v no_o more_o grace_n but_o if_o we_o be_v

therefore_o lest_o we_o shall_v overthrow_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o wicked_o deny_v the_o fruit_n of_o christ_n his_o passion_n we_o do_v attribute_v justification_n unto_o faith_n only_o because_o that_o faith_n the_o attribute_v it_o to_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god._n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o we_o acknowledge_v work_n that_o

circumcision_n do_v signify_v that_o the_o whole_a nature_n of_o man_n be_v unclean_a and_o corrupt_a and_o therefore_o that_o all_o man_n have_v need_n of_o cut_v and_o regeneration_n and_o for_o

in_o deed_n now_o here_o it_o be_v expedient_a to_o hear_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 30._o of_o deuteron_n moses_n say_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n shall_v
