he_o into_o a_o new_a condition_n in_o refrence_n to_o god_n that_o do_v more_o than_o evidential_o justify_v but_o faith_n do_v thus_o alter_v the_o state_n of_o a_o sinner_n and_o the_o major_n be_v above_o contradiction_n the_o minor_a be_v no_o less_o true_a which_o i_o prove_v thus_o if_o before_o faith_n a_o mna_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o damnation_n and_o upon_o believe_v he_o be_v put_v into_o a_o state_n of_o salvation_n and_o that_o before_o god_n than_o faith_n do_v real_o alter_v and_o change_v a_o man_n estate_n before_o god_n but_o before_o faith_n a_o man_n be_v under_o

if_o the_o law_n be_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o receive_v all_o its_o power_n and_o authority_n from_o god_n then_o when_o the_o law_n condemn_v than_o god_n condemn_v but_o the_o law_n be_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o have_v all_o its_o force_n and_o efficacy_n from_o the_o will_n of_o god_n now_o look_v what_o answer_n he_o have_v give_v to_o mr._n woodbridge_n which_o you_o may_v see_v 6._o

do_v only_o declarative_o justify_v the_o sinner_n than_o faith_n do_v no_o more_o towards_o the_o justification_n of_o a_o sinner_n than_o work_v because_o work_n may_v evidence_n my_o justification_n as_o well_o as_o faith_n but_o according_a to_o the_o apostle_n faith_n contribute_v more_o to_o justification_n then_o work_v ergo._n the_o proof_n of_o the_o consequence_n that_o

which_o salvation_n they_o shall_v be_v bring_v unto_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n not_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o act_n of_o election_n or_o god_n will_v their_o salvation_n yet_o
