be_v in_o our_o heart_n second_o we_o learn_v by_o this_o which_o have_v be_v say_v to_o comfort_v ourselves_o in_o our_o suffering_n for_o in_o they_o christ_n and_o we_o be_v partner_n and_o he_o

for_o this_o cause_n we_o shall_v frame_v ourselves_o to_o bear_v they_o with_o all_o meekness_n and_o hence_o again_o we_o learn_v that_o he_o be_v our_o partner_n will_v help_v we_o to_o bear_v they_o either_o by_o moderate_v the_o weight_n of_o they_o or_o by_o end_v they_o for_o our_o good_a last_o here_o we_o learn_v that_o our_o affliction_n be_v either_o blessing_n or_o benefit_n and_o such_o may_v we_o discern_v they_o to_o be_v though_o not_o by_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n yet_o by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n because_o they_o be_v mean_n to_o make_v we_o conformable_a to_o our_o

thereof_o i_o will_v stand_v a_o while_n to_o declare_v the_o excellency_n and_o the_o condition_n of_o it_o it_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o certain_a estate_n of_o life_n in_o which_o all_o

loss_n of_o all_o his_o work_n and_o virtue_n whatsoever_o in_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o own_o justification_n now_o than_o if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v so_o certain_a and_o infallible_a as_o it_o be_v they_o also_o must_v we_o be_v settle_v in_o this_o point_n without_o doubt_v that_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n err_v grievous_o in_o that_o it_o magnify_v the_o merit_n of_o work_n yea_o in_o this_o regard_n it_o reverse_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o true_a religion_n for_o if_o they_o make_v advantage_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o salvation_n by_o their_o work_n christ_n must_v needs_o upon_o infallible_a certainty_n be_v their_o loss_n because_o paul_n make_v all_o work_n loss_n that_o christ_n may_v be_v advantage_n therefore_o far_o be_v it_o from_o we_o all_o to_o have_v any_o deal_n or_o contract_n of_o society_n with_o that_o church_n lest_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o her_o dangerous_a and_o fearful_a loss_n again_o in_o that_o all_o virtue_n &_o work_n of_o grace_n be_v but_o loss_n for_o christ._n we_o must_v not_o only_o in_o our_o first_o conversion_n but_o ever_o afterward_o though_o we_o be_v justify_v and_o sanctify_v even_o in_o the_o pang_n of_o death_n by_o mere_a faith_n rest_n on_o the_o mere_a mercy_n of_o god_n and_o apprehend_v naked_a christ_n that_o be_v christ_n sever_v in_o the_o case_n of_o salvation_n from_o all_o respect_n of_o all_o virtue_n and_o work_n whatsoever_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o may_v be_v oppose_v to_o the_o severe_a judgement_n of_o god_n but_o mere_a christ._n if_o we_o do_v presume_v to_o oppose_v any_o of_o our_o do_n to_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n hell_n death_n condemnation_n we_o be_v sure_a to_o go_v by_o the_o loss_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o certainty_n of_o paul_n loss_n now_o follow_v the_o necessity_n of_o they_o they_o be_v necessary_a in_o as_o much_o as_o without_o they_o no_o man_n can_v have_v part_n in_o christ._n for_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o virtue_n and_o good_a work_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n can_v not_o stand_v together_o yea_o they_o be_v contrary_a as_o fire_n and_o water_n and_o one_o overthrow_v the_o other_o in_o the_o cause_n of_o justification_n and_o salvation_n paul_n to_o signify_v this_o contrariety_n say_v 6._o if_o election_n be_v of_o grace_n it_o be_v not_o of_o work_n and_o if_o it_o be_v of_o work_n 4._o it_o be_v not_o of_o grace_n and_o again_o if_o you_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n you_o be_v abolish_v from_o christ._n and_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n ambrose_n say_v grace_n be_v whole_o receive_v or_o whole_o lose_v and_o augustine_n it_o be_v no_o way_n grace_n that_o be_v not_o free_o give_v every_o way_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o present_a religion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n abolish_v christ_n in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o maintain_v and_o magnify_v the_o merit_n of_o good_a work_n and_o this_o may_v be_v gather_v by_o the_o very_a doctrine_n of_o that_o church_n for_o it_o teach_v that_o man_n must_v be_v save_v by_o their_o prayer_n fasting_n alm_n pilgrimage_n building_n of_o church_n chapel_n bridge_n etc._n etc._n what_o then_o shall_v the_o passion_n of_o christ_n do_v whereto_o serve_v it_o they_o answer_v that_o it_o free_v we_o from_o death_n and_o give_v to_o our_o work_n the_o merit_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o make_v they_o meritorious_o to_o increase_v our_o justification_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o christ_n be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o first_o cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o we_o ourselves_o be_v secondary_a cause_n under_o he_o and_o with_o he_o and_o thus_o he_o be_v make_v of_o a_o saviour_n no_o saviour_n for_o either_o he_o must_v be_v a_o full_a and_o perfect_a saviour_n in_o himself_o or_o no_o saviour_n second_o by_o the_o former_a necessity_n we_o learn_v that_o whosoever_o will_v be_v save_v by_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n must_v come_v unto_o he_o without_o virtue_n or_o work_n of_o his_o own_o not_o carry_v in_o heart_n so_o much_o as_o the_o least_o confidence_n in_o they_o esteem_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o most_o vile_a wretched_a and_o miserable_a sinner_n as_o the_o publican_n do_v who_o pray_v lord_n
