jesus_n lord_n but_o by_o faith_n inspire_v as_o s._n paul_n say_v &_o yet_o not_o do_v that_o which_o our_o lord_n command_v they_o be_v not_o in_o state_n of_o grace_n it_o follow_v clear_o that_o

be_v a_o invention_n of_o man_n &_o a_o very_a ignorant_a and_o perverse_a error_n whereof_o our_o lord_n do_v warn_v we_o when_o he_o say_v to_o s._n mary_n magdalen_n that_o many_o sin_n be_v

of_o the_o discourse_n he_o say_v thy_o faith_n have_v save_v thou_o go_v in_o peace_n nor_o in_o that_o which_o our_o lord_n say_v before_o that_o many_o sin_n be_v forgive_v she_o because_o she_o

which_o of_o these_o two_o debtor_n do_v love_v he_o most_o who_o release_v the_o debt_n it_o be_v answer_v he_o to_o who_o the_o more_o be_v release_v and_o not_o he_o to_o who_o the_o less_o he_o be_v to_o have_v conclude_v his_o discourse_n with_o speak_v of_o love_n and_o not_o of_o faith_n and_o if_o liberty_n may_v be_v take_v for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v that_o he_o call_v faith_n love_n term_v the_o effect_n by_o the_o name_n of_o his_o cause_n let_v we_o also_o take_v liberty_n to_o say_v that_o in_o those_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n where_o it_o be_v affirm_v that_o man_n be_v iustify_v by_o faith_n love_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o name_n of_o faith_n by_o consider_v in_o the_o cause_n the_o effect_n in_o plain_a manner_n do_v our_o lord_n speak_v here_o unless_o a_o man_n be_v dispose_v to_o hood_n wink_v himself_o in_o so_o fair_a a_o light_n and_o he_o call_v faith_n and_o love_n by_o their_o own_o name_n and_o both_o of_o they_o be_v requisite_a to_o justification_n as_o we_o have_v say_v already_o and_o our_o lord_n do_v settle_v the_o same_o conjunction_n when_o he_o say_v afterward_o to_o his_o disciple_n the_o 16._o the_o joan._n 16._o father_n himself_o love_v you_o because_o you_o have_v love_v i_o and_o have_v believe_v that_o i_o issue_v from_o he_o and_o fince_n fayth_n &_o love_n be_v both_o requisite_a to_o a_o man_n without_o doubt_n he_o will_v have_v grief_n for_o his_o sin_n as_o have_v grievous_o offend_v god_n who_o he_o love_v above_o all_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o example_n of_o s._n mary_n magdalen_n and_o of_o other_o sinner_n who_o be_v comuert_v to_o god_n now_o faith_n now_o if_o this_o be_v well_o consider_v it_o will_v overthrow_v the_o fancy_n which_o the_o caluinish_n have_v concern_v faith_n because_o both_o these_o thing_n be_v requisite_a and_o other_o also_o which_o flow_n from_o they_o towards_o the_o obtain_n of_o justice_n therefore_o do_v the_o holy_a scripture_n sometime_o name_n faith_n and_o sometime_o love_n &_o sometime_o sorrow_n &_o grief_n of_o repentance_n and_o sometime_o the_o humble_a prayer_n of_o the_o penitent_a who_o say_v lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o a_o sinner_n and_o sometime_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o sin_n itself_o i_o have_v sin_v o_o lord_n say_v david_n &_o instant_o he_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o pardon_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o he_o who_o shall_v be_v induce_v by_o this_o to_o say_v that_o sin_n be_v pardon_v by_o a_o man_n only_a knowledge_n of_o the_o sin_n shall_v fall_v into_o no_o small_a error_n since_o cain_n and_o judas_n and_o saul_n and_o many_o other_o do_v know_v their_o sin_n and_o yet_o come_v not_o to_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o it_o and_o so_o far_o without_o all_o

it_o be_v that_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n we_o may_v also_o exclude_v faith_n out_o of_o this_o business_n as_o be_v unnecessary_a because_o in_o other_o place_n the_o scripture_n say_v that_o sin_n be_v forgive_v by_o penance_n &_o other_o mean_n without_o make_v any_o mention_n at_o all_o of_o faith_n but_o point_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n concern_v this_o point_n the_o truth_n of_o catholic_a doctrine_n be_v this_o that_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v requisite_a as_o disposition_n towards_o the_o obtain_n of_o pardon_n and_o grace_n and_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v reflect_v upon_o this_o that_o faith_n be_v name_v many_o time_n by_o way_n of_o attribute_v justice_n to_o it_o and_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o be_v make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o partaker_n of_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o such_o like_a effect_n as_o do_v accompany_v grace_n and_o charity_n it_o be_v not_o because_o faith_n alone_o be_v sufficient_a for_o it_o but_o because_o when_o the_o scripture_n attribute_v these_o effect_n to_o faith_n it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v form_v by_o charity_n and_o which_o be_v the_o life_n thereof_o neither_o yet_o must_v these_o effect_n be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n as_o if_o necessary_o upon_o our_o have_a faith_n we_o must_v have_v love_n because_o true_a faith_n may_v remain_v as_o have_v be_v say_v even_o when_o grace_n and_o love_n be_v lose_v which_o love_n as_o s._n paul_n say_v be_v great_a than_o either_o faith_n or_o hope_n and_o when_o our_o
