A50426 St. Paul's travailing pangs, with his legal-Galatians, or, A treatise of justification wherein these two dissertions are chiefly evinced viz. 1. That justification is not by the law, but by faith, 2. That yet men are generally prone to seek justification by the law : together with several characters assigned of a legal and evangical spirit : to which is added (by way of appendix) the manner of transferring justification from the law to faith / by Zach.

the_o two_o act_n of_o his_o justification_n now_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v that_o there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n in_o justification_n viz._n pardon_v and_o approbation_n but_o since_o pardon_v of_o
