justification_n by_o work_n spring_v from_o faith_n 71._o be_v justification_n by_o faith_n in_o this_o sense_n again_o they_o say_v that_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v purchase_v this_o grant_n or_o law_n i._n e._n that_o they_o that_o do_v obey_v he_o to_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v save_v that_o be_v our_o obedience_n do_v both_o justify_v we_o and_o save_v we_o answ._n the_o vanity_n of_o which_o and_o how_o erroneous_a it_o be_v justific_n we_o have_v show_v some_o time_n since_o *_o 3._o they_o say_v christ_n have_v merit_v a_o new_a law_n or_o easy_a term_n and_o condition_n that_o our_o faith_n obedience_n and_o good_a work_n may_v justify_v and_o save_o we_o but_o what_o say_v paul_n all_o boast_n be_v exclude_v not_o legal_a boast_n only_o but_o all_o boast_n and_o cause_n of_o boast_v but_o by_o their_o new_a law_n boast_v be_v let_v in_o moreover_o he_o say_v 11.6_o if_o it_o be_v of_o grace_n it_o be_v not_o of_o work_n and_o if_o it_o be_v of_o work_n it_o be_v not_o of_o grace_n or_o else_o grace_n be_v no_o more_o grace_n and_o work_v no_o more_o work_n brethren_n work_n can_v mix_v with_o free_a grace_n they_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o each_o other_o in_o their_o nature_n beside_o these_o man_n forget_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v alone_o by_o the_o obedience_n and_o righteousness_n of_o one_o 19_o even_o as_o we_o be_v make_v sinner_n by_o the_o disobedience_n of_o one_o and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n impute_v to_o we_o for_o it_o be_v by_o the_o disobedience_n of_o adam_n as_o impute_v to_o we_o that_o we_o become_v sinner_n in_o a_o word_n christ_n have_v wrought_v out_o a_o righteousness_n for_o we_o which_o be_v put_v upon_o we_o or_o account_v or_o impute_v to_o we_o and_o not_o that_o christ_n merit_v a_o law_n that_o a_o justify_v righteousness_n may_v be_v wrought_v out_o in_o we_o or_o by_o we_o in_o conform_v to_o that_o new_a law_n 1.30_o who_o of_o god_n be_v make_v unto_o we_o wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n and_o sanctification_n and_o redemption_n not_o only_o that_o his_o righteousness_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n as_o mr._n clark_n affirm_v p._n 104._o but_o the_o material_a cause_n thereof_o or_o that_o by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v no_o other_o righteousness_n but_o he_o which_o be_v perfect_a be_v pleadable_a at_o god_n bar._n 4._o we_o say_v that_o justification_n of_o a_o sinner_n be_v the_o acceptance_n of_o his_o person_n or_o the_o pronounce_v he_o just_a and_o righteous_a in_o god_n sight_n through_o the_o imputation_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n whereby_o he_o have_v a_o full_a right_n and_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n they_o say_v that_o justification_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n 13_o i._n e._n the_o not_o execute_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n due_a by_o the_o law_n of_o work_n and_o a_o acceptance_n of_o a_o man_n so_o long_o as_o he_o perform_v the_o new_a condition_n of_o sincere_a obedience_n for_o the_o lord_n sake_n and_o for_o your_o soul_n sake_n beware_v of_o those_o man_n and_o their_o new_a and_o strange_a doctrine_n for_o it_o appear_v salvation_n must_v be_v a_o debt_n and_o not_o whole_o of_o grace_n if_o what_o they_o say_v be_v true_a because_o it_o be_v grant_v upon_o our_o fulfil_n of_o the_o condition_n require_v which_o be_v indeed_o not_o light_a but_o weighty_a and_o difficult_a condition_n as_o faith_n regeneration_n and_o perseverance_n even_o mr._n dan._n william_n baptismal_a covenant_n which_o all_o they_o who_o do_v not_o fulfil_v it_o he_o say_v shall_v be_v damn_v the_o violate_v of_o that_o covenant_n be_v as_o he_o affirm_v the_o damn_v sin_n and_o this_o so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v see_v be_v that_o which_o be_v their_o covenant_n of_o grace_n not_o that_o christ_n engage_v for_o we_o to_o the_o father_n to_o do_v all_o for_o we_o and_o in_o we_o in_o the_o covenant_n of_o redemption_n even_o to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o and_o we_o to_o god_n no_o but_o that_o that_o be_v a_o distinct_a covenant_n from_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v to_o make_v way_n for_o we_o to_o enter_v into_o a_o conditional_a covenant_n of_o grace_n i._n e._n of_o faith_n good_a work_n or_o gospel-obedience_n which_o error_n and_o mistake_v i_o purpose_v god_n willing_a to_o refute_v before_o i_o leave_v my_o text_n and_o prove_v the_o covenant_n of_o peace_n be_v but_o one_o entire_a covenant_n with_o that_o of_o redemption_n
