be_v justify_v before_o he_o believe_v i_o will_v assuage_v the_o hardness_n of_o the_o question_n by_o the_o mildness_n of_o a_o comparison_n that_o which_o acquit_v and_o free_v a_o malefactor_n be_v the_o seal_a pardon_n of_o the_o king_n so_o likewise_o that_o which_o comfort_n and_o assure_v the_o penitent_a heart_n of_o mercy_n and_o forgiveness_n be_v the_o seal_a witness_n which_o god_n

be_v as_o the_o seal_a pardon_n to_o the_o malefactor_n and_o to_o this_o agree_v the_o scripture_n act_n 10._o 43._o to_o he_o that_o be_v to_o jesus_n christ_n give_v all_o the_o prophet_n witness_n that_o through_o his_o name_n whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v receive_v remission_n of_o sin_n thus_o speak_v god_n word_n and_o not_o as_o you_o speak_v so_o that_o it_o can_v true_o be_v say_v neither_o ought_v any_o dare_v so_o to_o preach_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v before_o he_o believe_v nor_o that_o he_o believe_v before_o he_o be_v justify_v but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o

and_o as_o it_o be_v give_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o believe_v so_o it_o be_v continue_v maintain_v and_o increase_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n as_o the_o other_o spiritual_a gift_n as_o hope_v

heed_n we_o do_v not_o separate_v that_o which_o god_n have_v join_v together_o for_o that_o be_v direct_o against_o the_o commandment_n matth._n 9_o 6._o let_v no_o man_n put_v asunder_o that_o which_o god_n have_v join_v together_o and_o in_o vain_a do_v that_o man_n argue_v to_o prove_v which_o be_v first_o in_o the_o sun_n the_o heat_n or_o the_o light_n so_o vain_a it_o be_v in_o you_o to_o argue_v whether_o justification_n or_o faith_n be_v first_o for_o when_o or_o to_o whosoever_o god_n give_v one_o he_o give_v they_o both_o rom._n 3._o 26._o wherefore_o i_o retort_v your_o argument_n thus_o if_o god_n give_v remission_n of_o sin_n to_o the_o penitent_a elect_a than_o the_o impenitent_a elect_a be_v not_o justify_v but_o he_o give_v remission_n of_o sin_n to_o the_o penitent_a elect_a act_n 2._o 38._o therefore_o none_o of_o god_n elect_a be_v justify_v before_o they_o be_v call_v and_o their_o sin_n remit_v wherefore_o never_o hereafter_o teach_v your_o disciple_n that_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n be_v justify_v before_o they_o believe_v but_o learn_v to_o teach_v they_o to_o repent_v that_o their_o sin_n may_v be_v do_v away_o as_o the_o apostle_n teach_v to_o life_n and_o salvation_n act._n 3._o 19_o and_o so_o st._n john_n say_v of_o the_o jew_n they_o do_v not_o repent_v that_o they_o may_v believe_v and_o consider_v our_o lord_n doctrine_n to_o nicodemus_n he_o tell_v he_o not_o of_o his_o election_n although_o our_o lord_n know_v well_o that_o secret_a but_o he_o preach_v to_o he_o conversion_n except_o a_o man_n be_v bear_v again_o he_o can_v see_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n joh._n 3._o regeneration_n must_v be_v seek_v for_o by_o the_o elect_a and_o by_o these_o effect_n and_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o make_v sure_a to_o themselves_o their_o election_n this_o be_v god_n way_n prescribe_v in_o his_o word_n and_o lest_o i_o fall_v into_o your_o error_n as_o i_o have_v brief_o disprove_v your_o doctrine_n and_o discoverer_v the_o falsehood_n and_o misty_a sophistry_n of_o your_o argument_n so_o now_o by_o the_o help_n of_o god_n i_o will_v lay_v down_o and_o confirm_v the_o truth_n itself_o how_o the_o scripture_n do_v speak_v of_o justify_v and_o believe_v that_o so_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v that_o which_o hitherto_o i_o perceive_v you_o be_v very_o ignorant_a of_o wherefore_o thus_o say_v the_o scripture_n concerning_o justification_n we_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n say_v the_o apostle_n rom._n 3_o 24._o titus_n 3._o 11._o likewise_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o his_o blood_n that_o be_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n rom._n 5._o 9_o and_o also_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o say_v rom._n 3._o 28._o so_o than_o these_o three_o term_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v in_o our_o justification_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n purchase_v the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o a_o assurance_n of_o it_o give_v to_o the_o lose_v the_o dead_a the_o break_a penitent_a mourn_a heart_n whereby_o though_o it_o be_v dead_a yet_o it_o be_v make_v to_o live_v the_o break_a be_v heal_v the_o emptiness_n be_v fill_v the_o thirstiness_n be_v quench_v comfort_v and_o refresh_v with_o the_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n in_o and_o through_o jesus_n christ_n justification_n then_o be_v the_o impute_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n assure_v and_o make_v know_v to_o the_o elect_a by_o faith_n and_o this_o doctrine_n be_v clear_v by_o the_o apostle_n beyond_o the_o least_o exception_n speak_v of_o holy_a abraham_n justification_n and_o be_v full_o assure_v say_v he_o rom._n 4._o 21_o 24._o that_o what_o god_n have_v promise_v he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v therefore_o it_o be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n now_o it_o be_v not_o impute_v for_o his_o sake_n alone_o that_o it_o be_v impute_v to_o he_o but_o for_o we_o also_o to_o who_o it_o shall_v be_v impute_v if_o we_o believe_v observe_v first_o that_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v justify_v faith_n a_o full_a assurance_n for_o we_o shall_v have_v occasion_n by_o and_o by_o to_o make_v use_n of_o this_o and_o second_o that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v our_o justification_n be_v not_o give_v to_o we_o but_o by_o faith_n in_o these_o word_n to_o who_o it_o shall_v be_v impute_v if_o we_o believe_v so_o that_o justification_n and_o justify_v faith_n can_v no_o more_o be_v sever_v part_v or_o divide_v than_o the_o light_n and_o the_o heat_n from_o the_o fire_n and_o to_o this_o purpose_n st._n paul_n call_v christ_n the_o just_a one_o and_o the_o justifier_n of_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o jesus_n rom._n 3._o 26._o so_o that_o it_o be_v prove_v against_o all_o the_o antinomian_n in_o the_o world_n that_o then_o and_o not_o before_o when_o god_n justify_v his_o elect_a then_o and_o at_o that_o time_n he_o give_v justify_v faith_n act._n 13._o 38_o 39_o and_o as_o i_o promise_v before_o so_o i_o will_v here_o brief_o show_v the_o divers_a acceptation_n and_o distinction_n of_o faith_n and_o three_o particular_n do_v comprehend_v all_o other_o sort_n and_o distinction_n whatsoever_o historical_a faith_n to_o believe_v god_n
