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

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

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

the_o faithful_a but_o it_o will_v more_o evident_o appear_v if_o we_o examine_v the_o particular_n as_o for_o predestination_n and_o election_n election_n whereby_o god_n do_v choose_v man_n to_o
