god_n for_o to_o that_o there_o be_v a_o more_o excellent_a price_n require_v which_o be_v neither_o the_o righteousness_n of_o man_n nor_o yet_o of_o the_o law_n here_o we_o must_v have_v christ_n how_o not_o by_o work_n but_o by_o faith_n therefore_o as_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o christ_n blessing_n or_o redeem_n and_o christ_n work_v or_o give_v example_n wherefore_o we_o must_v separate_v the_o believe_a and_o the_o work_a abraham_n as_o far_o asunder_o as_o there_o be_v distance_n betwixt_o heaven_n and_o earth_n abraham_n believe_v in_o christ_n be_v

for_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o this_o faithful_a abraham_n we_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o afterward_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o the_o work_a abraham_n do_v which_o be_v carnal_a and_o earthly_a and_o not_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a but_o as_o they_o be_v give_v unto_o he_o of_o god_n we_o be_v among_o man_n in_o earth_n the_o believe_a abraham_n fill_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n so_o every_o christian_a through_o his_o faith_n fill_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n so_o that_o beside_o it_o he_o ought_v to_o behold_v nothing_o thus_o far_o his_o word_n good_a work_n or_o the_o
