A12211	A friendly advertisement to the pretended Catholickes of Ireland declaring, for their satisfaction; that both the Kings supremacie, and the faith whereof his Majestie is the defender, are consonant to the doctrine delivered in the holy Scriptures, and writings of the ancient fathers. And consequently, that the lawes and statutes enacted in that behalfe, are dutifully to be observed by all his Majesties subjects within that kingdome. By Christopher Sibthorp, Knight, one of his Maiesties iustices of his court of chiefe place in Ireland. In the end whereof, is added an epistle written to the author, by the Reverend Father in God, Iames Vssher Bishop of Meath: wherein it is further manifested, that the religion anciently professed in Ireland is, for substance, the same with that, which at this day is by publick authoritie established therein.	Sibthorp, Christopher, Sir, d. 1632.; Ussher, James, 1581-1656.	1622 (1622)	STC 22522; ESTC S102408	494,750	610

to_o think_v it_o it_o be_v then_o a_o thing_n very_o manifest_a that_o he_o speak_v not_o only_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o of_o the_o work_v also_o of_o the_o moral_a law_n and_o of_o these_o chief_o exclude_v aswell_o the_o work_n of_o the_o one_o as_o of_o the_o other_o 12.16_o from_o be_v any_o cause_n of_o our_o justification_n in_o god_n sight_n and_o this_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o evident_a because_o s._n paul_n yet_o further_o in_o that_o his_o dispute_n of_o justification_n exclude_v not_o only_o the_o jew_n but_o the_o gentile_n also_o from_o all_o hope_n of_o justification_n by_o the_o law_n teach_v that_o they_o both_o be_v to_o expect_v justification_n in_o god_n sight_n not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n 2.15.16_o but_o by_o

aswell_o as_o the_o jew_n be_v bind_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n when_o therefore_o s._n paul_n teach_v that_o aswell_o the_o gentile_n as_o the_o jew_n be_v to_o expect_v justification_n not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n but_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n it_o be_v apparent_a that_o he_o must_v needs_o mean_a to_o exclude_v herein_o aswell_o the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n whereto_o the_o gentile_n be_v bind_v as_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n whereto_o the_o jew_n only_o be_v bind_v and_o not_o the_o

which_o be_v before_o mention_v namely_o that_o s._n paul_n when_o he_o exclude_v work_n from_o be_v any_o cause_n of_o justification_n in_o god_n sight_n mean_v it_o of_o work_n do_v before_o faith_n

before_o god_n and_o in_o his_o sight_n this_o have_v be_v before_o sufficient_o answer_v yet_o because_o they_o so_o often_o and_o usual_o urge_v it_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v not_o be_v offensive_a that_o i_o also_o here_o once_o again_o make_v answer_n unto_o it_o first_o therefore_o it_o may_v suffice_v to_o call_v to_o your_o remembrance_n that_o which_o have_v be_v speak_v concern_v those_o two_o faithful_a &_o godly_a man_n abraham_n and_o david_n who_o albeit_o they_o have_v after_o faith_n &_o grace_n receive_v from_o god_n live_v well_o and_o do_v sundry_a good_a work_n for_o which_o they_o may_v deserve_v praise_n and_o glory_n among_o man_n yet_o 5._o for_o all_o that_o they_o deserve_v no_o praise_n nor_o glory_n with_o god_n as_o s._n paul_n witness_v nor_o be_v thereby_o justify_v in_o his_o sight_n yea_o as_o touch_v abraham_n he_o say_v that_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o he_o do_v not_o his_o work_n but_o his_o faith_n be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n before_o god_n 8._o and_o as_o touch_v david_n though_o he_o be_v a_o man_n likewise_o very_o faithful_a and_o godly_a and_o do_v many_o good_a work_n yet_o by_o his_o godly_a life_n and_o good_a work_n he_o never_o think_v to_o be_v justify_v before_o god_n tribunal_n but_o find_v all_o the_o godliness_n and_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o he_o to_o be_v too_o defective_a and_o to_o come_v too_o short_a for_o that_o purpose_n and_o therefore_o also_o he_o cry_v out_o thus_o unto_o god_n say_v enter_v not_o into_o judgement_n with_o thy_o servant_n 143.2_o for_o in_o thy_o sight_n shall_v no_o man_n live_v be_v justify_v yea_o 8._o he_o describe_v the_o blessedness_n of_o every_o man_n even_o of_o the_o holy_a man_n that_o live_v to_o consist_v not_o in_o his_o own_o sanctity_n or_o righteousness_n but_o in_o this_o that_o 32.1.2_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v or_o not_o impute_v to_o he_o and_o so_o do_v s._n paul_n infer_v and_o teach_v out_o of_o this_o example_n of_o david_n 4.6_o that_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n so_o that_o neither_o the_o work_n which_o david_n do_v nor_o the_o work_n which_o abraham_n do_v nor_o consequent_o the_o work_n that_o any_o other_o godly_a or_o holy_a man_n do_v after_o grace_n and_o faith_n receive_v be_v sufficient_a to_o justify_v in_o god_n presence_n for_o i_o know_v nothing_o by_o myself_o say_v s._n paul_n yet_o be_o i_o not_o thereby_o justify_v 4.4_o i_o may_v here_o further_o desire_v you_o to_o call_v to_o your_o remembrance_n that_o holy_a man_n job_n and_o that_o holy_a prophet_n of_o god_n daniel_n 6._o yea_o all_o that_o godly_a company_n and_o church_n of_o god_n in_o daniel_n time_n and_o esaies_n time_n who_o all_o do_v as_o themselves_o testify_v renounce_v all_o their_o own_o inherent_a righteousness_n as_o too_o insufficient_a and_o unmeet_a to_o stand_v before_o god_n most_o pure_a eye_n to_o claim_v justification_n thereby_o in_o his_o sight_n yea_o if_o god_n shall_v look_v narrow_o to_o see_v what_o be_v say_v &_o do_v amiss_o and_o to_o recompense_v it_o in_o the_o rigour_n and_o severity_n of_o his_o justice_n according_a to_o man_n merit_n and_o desert_n ●_o who_o as_o the_o psalmist_n speak_v shall_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v or_o to_o abide_v it_o yea_o i_o may_v here_o moreover_o desire_v you_o to_o remember_v whatsoever_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n touch_v this_o matter_n for_o not_o the_o work_n even_o of_o a_o just_a man_n do_v justify_v in_o god_n sight_n as_o s._n paul_n prove_v by_o a_o express_a testimony_n out_o of_o the_o prophet_n abacuk_n where_o he_o say_v 1.17_o even_o of_o the_o just_a man_n that_o he_o live_v by_o his_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o his_o work_n and_o this_o he_o urge_v and_o
