the_o papist_n commendation_n of_o infidel_n work_n sure_o the_o work_n be_v good_a according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n and_o so_o have_v the_o reward_n that_o be_v so_o deem_v of_o natural_a man_n so_o be_v nabuchadnezzar_n jehu_n and_o other_o reward_v but_o out_o of_o this_o observation_n that_o the_o mind_n and_o not_o the_o action_n be_v reward_v here_o arise_v two_o excellent_a point_n the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o must_v take_v the_o definition_n of_o a_o good_a work_n from_o the_o scripture_n the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v charity_n out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a for_o god_n respect_v not_o so_o much_o opus_fw-la operatum_fw-la as_o opus_fw-la operantis_fw-la and_o when_o it_o be_v say_v

shall_v commit_v many_o absurdity_n in_o expound_v the_o scripture_n when_o the_o effect_n of_o faith_n be_v give_v to_o charity_n to_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o repentance_n etc._n etc._n

faith_n which_o bear_v out_o all_o the_o defect_n of_o our_o conscience_n and_o of_o charity_n the_o second_o thing_n that_o this_o do_v yield_v be_v that_o all_o man_n herein_o be_v equal_v because_o a_o man_n be_v accept_v according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o have_v not_o according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o have_v not_o according_a to_o work_n we_o must_v look_v immediate_o to_o ourselves_o and_o foresee_v our_o condition_n of_o reward_n or_o punishment_n but_o we_o must_v not_o lay_v our_o foundation_n there_o but_o go_v high_a remember_v that_o of_o god_n in_o moses_n secreta_fw-la
