the_o multitude_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n pardon_v and_o do_v away_o in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o only_a saviour_n the_o fair_a argument_n of_o all_o other_o to_o the_o show_n be_v a_o conclusion_n that_o s._n james_n make_v and_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n will_v make_v a_o man_n think_v great_o make_v against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o only_a faith_n where_o he_o say_v you_o see_v then_o how_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v of_o work_n &_o not_o of_o faith_n only_o whereas_o notwithstanding_o s._n paul_n every_o where_o inculcate_v nothing_o more_o than_o faith_n without_o work_n doubtless_o these_o noble_a apostle_n be_v not_o contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o neither_o be_v the_o scripture_n as_o a_o house_n divide_v in_o itself_o god_n forbid_v they_o shall_v s._n paul_n teach_v that_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n and_o therefore_o not_o by_o work_n yet_o for_o that_o there_o be_v certain_a vain_a person_n creep_v in_o among_o they_o he_o exhort_v withal_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a likewise_o when_o he_o have_v show_v that_o life_n everlasting_a be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o no_o purchase_n of_o work_n yet_o withal_o also_o he_o warn_v they_o that_o they_o beware_v also_o how_o they_o turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n as_o saint_n paul_n be_v vehement_a in_o this_o case_n so_o upon_o great_a occasion_n s._n james_n be_v most_o worthy_o as_o earnest_a as_o saint_n paul_n for_o while_o some_o hear_v that_o faith_n without_o work_n do_v justify_v unstable_a and_o unlearned_a mind_a man_n as_o they_o be_v pervert_v that_o scripture_n as_o also_o other_o scripture_n to_o their_o own_o damnation_n they_o bid_v adieu_o to_o all_o good_a deed_n say_v in_o their_o foolish_a heart_n if_o faith_n without_o work_n can_v save_v we_o can_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n &_o if_o only_a faith_n will_v serve_v we_o can_v believe_v and_o what_o need_v more_o and_o thus_o content_v themselves_o in_o a_o generality_n of_o their_o profession_n of_o faith_n false_o so_o call_v little_a reckon_n be_v make_v how_o bad_a soever_o their_o conversation_n be_v for_o remedy_v whereof_o s._n james_n ask_v what_o such_o a_o faith_n can_v avail_v they_o for_o either_o it_o be_v no_o faith_n and_o so_o nothing_o worth_a or_o a_o devil_n faith_n &_o so_o worse_o than_o nothing_o yet_o lest_o any_o imagine_v that_o s._n james_n plain_o &_o simple_o grant_v a_o devil_n faith_n to_o be_v faith_n mark_v further_o how_o he_o do_v not_o for_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o faith_n in_o deed_n and_o proper_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n he_o say_v it_o be_v no_o wave_n that_o be_v to_o say_v no_o tremble_a leaf_n no_o shiver_a reed_n full_o in_o s._n paul_n meaning_n that_o it_o be_v a_o evident_a probation_n &_o a_o certain_a stable_z ground_v strong_a thing_n wherefore_o s._n james_n when_o he_o liken_v this_o suppose_a faith_n to_o the_o quake_a faith_n of_o deville_n he_o speak_v not_o proper_o but_o by_o comparison_n and_o mean_v a_o other_o matter_n then_o either_o himself_o speak_v of_o in_o his_o first_o chapter_n or_o else_o s._n paul_n elsewhere_o in_o his_o epistle_n for_o proper_o he_o term_v this_o manner_n of_o faith_n a_o dead_a faith_n that_o be_v no_o faith_n at_o al._n and_o this_o he_o prove_v by_o asimilitude_n that_o as_o a_o man_n may_v argue_v that_o a_o body_n be_v not_o quick_a but_o dead_a without_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v without_o all_o spiritual_a motion_n life_n &_o sense_n so_o be_v faith_n without_o work_n for_o faith_n appear_v quick_a and_o lively_a in_o her_o operation_n and_o work_v yet_o not_o as_o the_o papist_n dream_v that_o work_n be_v the_o soul_n of_o faith_n but_o i_o say_v as_o the_o spirit_n and_o vital_a breath_n of_o faith_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d wherein_o it_o like_v well_o and_o great_o delit_v and_o manifest_o show_v itself_o for_o if_o a_o man_n be_v a_o faithful_a man_n very_o also_o that_o man_n will_v live_v upright_o &_o walk_v honest_o and_o do_v work_n worthy_a of_o his_o faith_n not_o that_o faith_n be_v make_v of_o work_n but_o that_o where_o faith_n go_v before_o work_v ever_o follow_v after_o in_o so_o much_o that_o a_o man_n may_v well_o conclude_v a_o faithful_a man_n ergo_fw-la fruitful_a a_o fruitless_a man_n ergo_fw-la faithless_a thou_o will_v say_v thou_o have_v faith_n that_o be_v a_o verbal_a faith_n &_o nothing_o else_o faith_n be_v not_o make_v of_o word_n but_o show_v in_o deed_n as_o the_o sun_n be_v not_o without_o

if_o it_o have_v no_o beam_n it_o be_v no_o sun_n and_o so_o faith_n if_o it_o have_v no_o work_n well_o it_o may_v be_v call_v faith_n of_o vain_a man_n in_o truth_n it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o
