twofold_a first_o go_n second_o our_o own_o god_n righteousness_n be_v not_o abolish_v but_o establish_v by_o faith_n our_o own_o righteousness_n that_o be_v which_o we_o have_v wrought_v as_o i_o may_v say_v home-made_a righteousness_n of_o our_o own_o web_n this_o be_v abolish_v by_o faith_n this_o be_v the_o righteousness_n which_o the_o jew_n boast_v of_o unable_a to_o abide_v the_o trial_n of_o the_o law_n for_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o god_n righteousness_n not_o whereby_o god_n be_v righteous_a in_o himself_o but_o which_o he_o give_v to_o man_n that_o he_o may_v be_v righteous_a by_o god_n this_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o our_o mediator_n they_o be_v zealous_a of_o righteousness_n but_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o that_o righteousness_n which_o god_n approve_v which_o be_v a_o righteousness_n every_o way_n answerable_a to_o the_o law_n this_o we_o sinful_a man_n can_v perform_v but_o christ_n have_v perform_v and_o we_o can_v apprehend_v when_o god_n give_v faith_n go_v about_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o righteousness_n their_o own_o that_o be_v which_o they_o in_o their_o own_o person_n perform_v to_o establish_v or_o to_o set_v up_o a_o metaphor_n from_o the_o stay_n up_o of_o a_o old_a rot_a house_n which_o can_v be_v shore_v up_o no_o long_o aretius_n long_o aretius_n or_o from_o the_o set_n up_o of_o a_o dead_a man_n upon_o his_o foot_n to_o make_v

by_o their_o own_o righteousness_n but_o in_o vain_a work_v their_o own_o confusion_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n they_o do_v not_o submit_v themselves_o this_o be_v the_o issue_n of_o pride_n they_o will_v not_o be_v behold_v to_o god_n for_o a_o righteousness_n of_o his_o appoint_v they_o have_v not_o submit_v as_o rebel_n which_o will_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o their_o lawful_a prince_n doctrine_n ignorance_n breed_v pride_n and_o contempt_n thus_o christ_n impute_v to_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n mat._n 15.14_o so_o paul_n think_v he_o have_v no_o peer_n while_o he_o be_v a_o

in_o the_o jew_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o papist_n and_o brownist_n it_o make_v they_o proud_a and_o have_v drink_v in_o a_o opinion_n they_o can_v be_v remove_v with_o reason_n as_o a_o man_n can_v

persecute_v with_o more_o eagerness_n they_o which_o renounce_v their_o opinion_n then_o they_o which_o deny_a god_n this_o appear_v in_o the_o jew_n who_o crucify_v christ_n for_o reprove_v their_o

their_o fancy_n i_o find_v by_o my_o little_a read_n and_o small_a observation_n that_o too_o much_o zeal_n be_v more_o dangerous_a to_o the_o church_n than_o the_o contrary_a degree_n of_o coldness_n 3._o it_o make_v man_n impatient_a of_o admonition_n it_o will_v not_o endure_v the_o hear_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o contradict_v it_o as_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o hear_v paul_n zeal_n be_v
