a_o man_n shall_v see_v he_o as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v to_o become_v a_o new_a creature_n and_o without_o doubt_n we_o can_v never_o be_v say_v to_o be_v right_a christian_n without_o we_o be_v after_o that_o manner_n renew_v and_o be_v make_v the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n create_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o do_v the_o work_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v all_o this_o i_o say_v must_v be_v in_o it_o but_o herein_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v some_o absurdity_n god_n justify_v the_o thief_n that_o be_v hang_v because_o he_o acknowledge_v his_o salvation_n to_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o when_o he_o be_v justify_v have_v he_o none_o other_o quality_n in_o he_o then_o he_o have_v before_o yes_o very_o why_o then_o say_v we_o that_o free_a righteousness_n have_v her_o course_n all_o our_o life_n long_o in_o deed_n a_o faithful_a man_n will_v at_o the_o least_o be_v well_o affect_v to_o hold_v himself_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o god_n obedience_n he_o will_v be_v displease_v with_o his_o sin_n yea_o groan_n and_o grieve_v for_o they_o and_o his_o chief_a de●●re_n will_v be_v to_o frame_v his_o life_n according_a to_o the_o law_n now_o when_o a_o faithful_a man_n be_v come_v to_o this_o we_o must_v not_o say_v that_o he_o be_v justify_v as_o he_o be_v at_o the_o first_o because_o he_o be_v then_o a_o dissolute_a man_n and_o altogether_o estrange_v from_o god_n to_o this_o we_o answer_v when_o god_n at_o the_o first_o justifi_v we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o pluck_v we_o out_o from_o that_o condemnation_n wherein_o we_o be_v he_o use_v then_o a_o general_a pardon_n and_o then_o when_o he_o justifi_v we_o afterward_o he_o than_o acknowkledge_v the_o benefit_n which_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o avow_v &_o allow_v they_o for_o he_o can_v deny_v himself_o &_o when_o he_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n although_o sin_n dwell_v in_o we_o yet_o reign_v it_o not_o in_o we_o as_o it_o be_v write_v although_o we_o do_v not_o the_o good_a which_o we_o will_v yet_o we_o strive_v to_o do_v it_o and_o therefore_o god_n allow_v and_o like_v of_o that_o because_o it_o come_v from_o he_o but_o here_o we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o he_o justifi_v we_o both_o in_o our_o person_n and_o also_o in_o our_o work_n by_o faith_n only_o for_o when_o he_o receive_v we_o at_o the_o first_o he_o can_v justify_v any_o work_n that_o be_v in_o us._n and_o why_o so_o because_o they_o be_v all_o wicked_a for_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v what_o fruit_n can_v a_o rot_a tree_n bring_v forth_o and_o therefore_o when_o god_n draw_v unto_o he_o miserable_a sinner_n that_o be_v banish_v and_o cast_v out_o of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o church_n he_o do_v not_o justify_v their_o work_n but_o behold_v their_o misery_n and_o have_v compassion_n of_o their_o perdition_n lo_o for_o that_o cause_n he_o justifi_v they_o now_o after_o that_o he_o have_v receive_v they_o he_o justifi_v they_o in_o their_o person_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o accept_v they_o as_o his_o child_n and_o after_o that_o he_o justifi_v their_o work_n and_o how_o do_v he_o that_o forsooth_o not_o by_o call_v they_o to_o a_o account_n nor_o judge_v they_o rigorous_o for_o there_o will_v be_v always_o as_o i_o have_v say_v some_o corruption_n among_o or_o else_o some_o slip_n and_o by_o sliding_n and_o such_o like_a thing_n which_o will_v mar_v all_o for_o if_o a_o man_n put_v the_o best_a wine_n in_o the_o world_n into_o a_o unsavery_a hogshead_n or_o into_o a_o fusty_a bottle_n the_o wine_n will_v be_v all_o mar_v even_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o all_o our_o work_n for_o so_o long_o as_o god_n guide_v and_o gonern_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n they_o be_v good_a holy_a &_o commendable_a but_o mark_v what_o vessel_n we_o be_v sure_o very_o filthy_a &_o corrupt_a even_o so_o be_v our_o work_n &_o therefore_o god_n must_v purge_v &_o cleanse_v they_o and_o how_o be_v that_o very_o even_o by_o his_o grace_n in_o pardon_v the_o fault_n &_o imperfection_n which_o be_v in_o they_o wherefore_o even_o as_o there_o be_v diversity_n between_o a_o faithful_a man_n &_o who_o god_n call_v at_o the_o begin_n unto_o the_o gospel_n so_o also_o be_v there_o some_o diversity_n in_o justification_n but_o it_o alter_v not_o in_o this_o behalf_n that_o be_v that_o god_n always_o justifi_v his_o free_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o accept_v they_o not_o for_o any_o virtue_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o for_o there_o be_v none_o at_o all_o in_o they_o neither_o yet_o for_o those_o which_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o they_o for_o they_o be_v to_o be_v condemn_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o infirmity_n that_o be_v in_o they_o but_o because_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o those_o who_o he_o have_v choose_v he_o have_v justify_v here_o than_o we_o see_v in_o sum_n what_o we_o be_v to_o retain_v as_o touch_v the_o motion_n of_o this_o question_n now_o we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o over_o and_o beside_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o papist_n imagine_v that_o we_o may_v partly_o obtain_v to_o be_v righteous_a and_o so_o consequent_o be_v pardon_v at_o god_n hand_n they_o be_v too_o too_o grossecond_o deceive_v bica_o deceive_v in_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o blind_a also_o i_o say_v in_o this_o they_o be_v to_o think_v themselves_o to_o have_v certain_a virtue_n which_o god_n ought_v to_o allow_v and_o like_v of_o but_o in_o very_a deed_n they_o be_v ashamed_a to_o say_v that_o their_o work_n do_v merit_n but_o that_o they_o carry_v some_o likelihood_n with_o they_o for_o say_v they_o although_o they_o do_v not_o perfect_o merit_v yet_o be_v it_o meet_v that_o god_n who_o be_v just_a shall_v accept_v of_o that_o good_a which_o they_o do_v yea_o but_o they_o be_v so_o far_o blind_v in_o their_o righteousness_n as_o that_o they_o understand_v not_o their_o sin_n as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v again_o they_o be_v second_o deceive_v because_o they_o think_v themselves_o able_a to_o acquit_v themselves_o by_o their_o satisfaction_n i_o will_v here_o forbear_v to_o speak_v what_o their_o satisfaction_n be_v because_o they_o be_v most_o foolish_a whereby_o they_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o provoke_v the_o heavy_a wrath_n of_o god_n against_o they_o think_v to_o pay_v he_o with_o filthy_a toy_n and_o trifle_n to_o wit_n with_o superstition_n devise_v of_o their_o own_o brain_n for_o what_o satisfaction_n can_v we_o make_v to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o what_o be_v the_o commit_n of_o one_o sin_n worthy_a of_o true_o we_o think_v that_o when_o we_o have_v violate_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o have_v pay_v some_o small_a portion_n for_o it_o that_o we_o have_v do_v enough_o must_v we_o not_o think_v that_o satan_n whole_o possess_v we_o when_o as_o we_o become_v thus_o arrogant_a now_o this_o be_v the_o great_a part_n of_o popish_a doctrine_n to_o be_v pardon_v when_o as_o we_o have_v deserve_v rather_o to_o be_v punish_v and_o this_o proceed_v herehence_a because_o they_o think_v they_o shall_v be_v justify_v by_o their_o work_n and_o therefore_o they_o say_v that_o this_o be_v but_o conjectural_a for_o they_o can_v choose_v but_o see_v that_o if_o we_o examine_v ourselves_o we_o shall_v come_v short_a in_o the_o end_n neither_o can_v we_o have_v that_o which_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o make_n up_o of_o our_o account_n before_o god_n to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v discharge_v but_o over_o and_o beside_o this_o conjecture_n they_o have_v another_o foolish_a toy_n in_o their_o head_n which_o be_v this_o why_o say_v they_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n fovour_v we_o to_o day_n it_o may_v be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o do_v so_o to_o morrow_n now_o they_o never_o think_v that_o faith_n be_v always_o accompany_v with_o hope_n and_o that_o hope_n extend_v itself_o both_o in_o life_n &_o death_n and_o we_o see_v also_o beside_o that_o there_o be_v a_o far_o great_a fault_n &_o that_o be_v they_o never_o look_v unto_o the_o last_o article_n of_o death_n whereof_o we_o will_v speak_v god_n will_v hereafter_o and_o therefore_o we_o will_v at_o this_o time_n go_v on_o with_o that_o we_o have_v begin_v which_o be_v they_o think_v to_o satisfy_v and_o appaise_v god_n when_o as_o they_o bring_v with_o they_o some_o recompense_n for_o the_o sin_n &_o iniquity_n which_o they_o have_v commit_v wherein_o they_o rob_v god_n of_o his_o honour_n for_o if_o it_o be_v so_o than_o he_o alone_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o reconcile_v we_o unto_o god_n his_o father_n now_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o be_v call_v our_o ransom_n for_o he_o make_v himself_o our_o surety_n upon_o

see_v what_o it_o be_v that_o be_v accomplish_v in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o some_o of_o god_n 2.14_o colos_n 2.14_o when_o as_o he_o be_v send_v into_o the_o world_n that_o be_v that_o in_o suffer_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n he_o have_v make_v we_o righteous_a not_o that_o we_o be_v in_o truth_n altogether_o so_o for_o there_o want_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o it_o but_o we_o be_v so_o far_o righteous_a as_o that_o god_n will_v not_o judge_v we_o according_a to_o our_o desert_n and_o contrariwise_o he_o by_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n support_v we_o and_o the_o obedience_n which_o jesus_n christ_n perform_v be_v approve_v and_o allow_v unto_o us._n as_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v pay_v our_o debt_n why_o then_o we_o be_v discharge_v even_o so_o be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o it_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v the_o principal_a debtter_n for_o we_o and_o thereby_o discharge_v we_o before_o god_n neither_o can_v the_o devil_n have_v any_o thing_n wherewith_o to_o accuse_v we_o when_o as_o we_o shall_v trust_v unto_o the_o satisfaction_n which_o be_v pay_v for_o we_o by_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o be_v call_v a_o priest_n howbeit_o we_o for_o our_o part_n be_v right_o to_o consider_v what_o fruit_n and_o benefit_n we_o be_v to_o receive_v by_o this_o his_o office_n of_o priesthood_n for_o it_o be_v not_o for_o himself_o alone_a but_o for_o our_o profit_n and_o welfare_n that_o the_o father_n by_o a_o solemn_a oath_n bestow_v this_o estate_n and_o dignity_n upon_o he_o now_o we_o be_v here_o to_o note_v that_o he_o be_v call_v a_o priest_n for_o ever_o to_o the_o end_n this_o honour_n may_v be_v reserve_v to_o he_o and_o transport_v to_o none_o other_o if_o this_o point_n than_o have_v be_v so_o well_o consider_v as_o it_o ought_v and_o as_o the_o apostle_n most_o notable_o set_v it_o down_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n 7.8.9.10_o hebr._n 7.8.9.10_o hebrew_n the_o abomination_n that_o have_v be_v bring_v into_o the_o world_n and_o which_o to_o this_o day_n rule_v and_o reign_v therein_o have_v never_o be_v for_o the_o pope_n make_v his_o priest_n with_o this_o condition_n to_o appaise_v god_n for_o these_o be_v the_o very_a word_n which_o he_o use_v when_o he_o charm_v they_o that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o prie_v they_o with_o these_o word_n of_o authority_n we_o give_v thou_o power_n to_o offer_n sacrifice_n unto_o god_n to_o appaise_v he_o what_o a_o horrible_a blasphemy_n be_v this_o for_o this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n and_o to_o make_v void_a the_o solemn_a oath_n which_o he_o have_v pronounce_v with_o his_o own_o mouth_n and_o which_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o hundred_o and_o ten_o psalm_n that_o we_o have_v allege_v where_o god_n say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v a_o priest_n for_o ever_o even_o he_o alone_o that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n who_o have_v not_o his_o like_a or_o match_v and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o behold_v how_o the_o popish_a priest_n brag_v that_o they_o offer_v up_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o they_o be_v god_n priest_n to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o the_o sin_n both_o of_o the_o quick_a and_o of_o the_o dead_a for_o they_o be_v not_o content_a to_o redeem_v such_o as_o by_o themselves_o out_o of_o their_o clouch_n as_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o eve_n but_o will_v have_v also_o their_o prie_a witchery_n extend_v itself_o even_o to_o the_o dead_a we_o see_v here_o that_o there_o be_v a_o constraint_n more_o than_o manifest_a between_o this_o decree_n which_o be_v pronounce_v and_o speak_v by_o the_o holy_a mouth_n of_o god_n and_o that_o which_o antichrist_n have_v false_o devise_v and_o which_o even_o at_o this_o day_n he_o still_o uphold_v and_o maintain_v we_o be_v therefore_o to_o note_v that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o offer_v up_o himself_o only_a once_o for_o all_o to_o the_o end_n to_o appaise_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n his_o father_n towards_o we_o and_o to_o pay_v all_o our_o debt_n but_o that_o also_o the_o power_n of_o this_o oblation_n which_o he_o make_v shall_v endure_v for_o ever_o and_o qee_v permanent_a and_o therefore_o we_o may_v see_v why_o the_o apostle_n use_v this_o similitude_n 10.29_o hebr._n 10.29_o that_o the_o way_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o fresh_a consecrate_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o the_o blood_n which_o be_v once_o shed_v for_o our_o salvation_n be_v never_o draw_v dry_a but_o daily_o overflow_v our_o soul_n by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n which_o bedew_v we_o with_o the_o same_o as_o s._n peter_n in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o his_o first_o canonical_a epistle_n speak_v mark_v also_o why_o jesus_n christ_n in_o his_o supper_n say_v this_o be_v my_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o so_o consequent_o sore_a ever_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o he_o have_v make_v a_o reconciliation_n which_o shall_v not_o endure_v and_o as_o though_o it_o have_v be_v but_o for_o a_o day_n or_o a_o year_n only_o but_o that_o at_o this_o day_n he_o occupi_v the_o place_n of_o a_o priest_n because_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n unto_o god_n his_o father_n in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n which_o once_o he_o suffer_v and_o do_v make_v intercession_n for_o we_o as_o that_o we_o be_v assure_v that_o we_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n when_o as_o we_o come_v unto_o he_o in_o the_o name_n of_o our_o advocate_n and_o be_v ground_v and_o settle_v upon_o the_o oblation_n which_o he_o once_o make_v to_o the_o end_n it_o may_v serve_v we_o at_o this_o day_n and_o unto_o the_o world_n end_n i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o be_v thus_o set_v at_o one_o with_o god_n and_o our_o sin_n forgive_v we_o without_o we_o be_v eftsoons_o defend_v and_o conserve_v under_o his_o mighty_a hand_n and_o protection_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v a_o king_n for_o all_o the_o salvation_n that_o we_o must_v look_v for_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n must_v come_v from_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v not_o fly_v in_o the_o air_n to_o look_v a_o far_o of_o for_o that_o which_o we_o want_v for_o he_o give_v and_o offer_v himself_o unto_o us._n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v in_o the_o person_n of_o this_o redeemer_n find_v out_o all_o fullness_n of_o that_o which_o be_v requisite_a for_o our_o salvation_n for_o that_o cause_n be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n call_v a_o king_n the_o unction_n which_o be_v bestow_v on_o he_o appertain_v unto_o

and_o forsomuch_o as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v replenish_v with_o they_o in_o all_o perfection_n and_o fullness_n we_o for_o our_o part_n be_v void_a of_o they_o and_o want_v they_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v come_v and_o beg_v they_o of_o he_o that_o he_o may_v deal_v liberal_o with_o we_o in_o help_v of_o we_o which_o he_o do_v when_o as_o he_o bestow_v the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a
