do_v in_o that_o behalf_n shall_v we_o not_o be_v past_a hope_n yes_o indeed_o and_o why_o so_o for_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v find_v any_o live_a creature_n that_o can_v be_v justify_v and_o what_o mean_v that_o word_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o any_o man_n can_v be_v find_v so_o just_a in_o god_n sight_n god_n none_o be_v of_o himself_o just_a before_o god_n that_o thereby_o he_o can_v be_v absolve_v and_o discharge_v before_o he_o so_o then_o when_o paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v not_o to_o this_o end_n that_o the_o discourse_n which_o he_o make_v shall_v be_v restrain_v to_o the_o ceremony_n only_o but_o he_o speak_v express_o as_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v of_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n because_o that_o the_o deceiver_n which_o at_o time_n mean_v to_o corrupt_v the_o purity_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v always_o allege_v &_o set_v out_o the_o ceremony_n now_o paul_n speak_v here_o as_o of_o the_o only_a remedy_n that_o serve_v to_o draw_v man_n from_o condemnation_n as_o also_o mention_n be_v make_v thereof_o in_o the_o fifteen_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n 15.10.11_o act._n 15.10.11_o and_o in_o that_o place_n it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o can_v be_v justify_v by_o all_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n but_o that_o we_o must_v come_v unto_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n there_o be_v wash_n sacrifice_n &_o to_o be_v short_a many_o mean_n to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o al._n he_o that_o have_v christ_n and_o his_o merit_n have_v al._n but_o what_o all_o that_o be_v but_o a_o figure_n and_o shadow_n to_o bring_v the_o people_n to_o jesus_n christ_n it_o follow_v then_o that_o when_o we_o have_v the_o satisfaction_n that_o be_v purchase_v unto_o we_o by_o jesus_n christ_n his_o death_n we_o have_v all_o neither_o need_n we_o the_o law_n to_o supply_v any_o thing_n whatsoever_o answer_v a_o shift_a and_o vain_a objection_n answer_v and_o though_o we_o have_v all_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o find_v out_o of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o shall_v have_v nothing_o at_o all_o and_o yet_o notwtstāding_v it_o shall_v seem_v that_o this_o argument_n or_o reason_n be_v not_o sufficient_a &_o strong_a enough_o for_o albeit_o that_o we_o be_v not_o full_o justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o a_o man_n may_v say_v that_o we_o be_v in_o part_n justify_v thereby_o which_o if_o it_o be_v true_a we_o be_v not_o altogether_o justify_v by_o faith_n for_o there_o be_v in_o it_o but_o one_o part_n of_o our_o righteousness_n behold_v how_o the_o papist_n be_v abuse_v and_o deceive_v for_o they_o will_v not_o say_v that_o we_o be_v able_a without_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o glory_n and_o boast_v before_o god_n of_o ourselves_o as_o though_o we_o have_v in_o ourselves_o all_o that_o which_o be_v requisite_a to_o obtain_v everlasting_a life_n by_o subtlety_n papist_n shift_n and_o subtlety_n they_o will_v not_o speak_v so_o but_o they_o will_v say_v that_o we_o be_v sinner_n that_o there_o be_v infirmity_n and_o weakness_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v in_o ourselves_o manifold_a imperfection_n and_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v of_o necessity_n remedy_n and_o redress_v they_o and_o that_o in_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o say_v that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o portion_n of_o righteousness_n in_o we_o which_o righteousness_n they_o call_v partial_a or_o part_v because_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v part_v between_o god_n &_o man_n &_o moreover_o they_o say_v that_o the_o remission_n and_o forgevenesse_n which_o be_v bestow_v upon_o we_o when_o we_o be_v to_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n blasphemy_n a_o most_o horrible_a blasphemy_n be_v not_o free_a but_o that_o satisfaction_n on_o our_o behalf_n must_v be_v add_v thereto_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o have_v cause_v they_o to_o devise_v their_o mass_n trental_n diriges_fw-la pilgrimage_n and_o such_o like_a behold_v also_o the_o fundation_n whereupon_o they_o build_v their_o purgatory_n stand_n mass_n pilgrimage_n purgatory_n and_o such_o baggage_n upon_o what_o ground_n the_o stand_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v how_o the_o papist_n will_v indeed_o confess_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v necessary_a for_o they_o but_o they_o mean_v only_o in_o part_n and_o to_o supply_v that_o with_o they_o themselves_o want_v and_o yet_o they_o attribute_v to_o themselves_o thus_o much_o that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o purchase_v favour_n before_o god_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o merit_n and_o deserve_v at_o the_o jest_n some_o part_n and_o portion_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o that_o when_o they_o shall_v have_v offend_v that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o amend_v and_o repair_v the_o fault_n and_o that_o by_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o work_n as_o they_o call_v they_o of_o supererrogation_n now_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o this_o argument_n do_v fight_v against_o s._n paul_n mark_v his_o sentence_n we_o be_v not_o justify_v but_o by_o faith_n for_o also_o a_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n some_o may_v reply_v after_o this_o manner_n let_v we_o put_v the_o case_n that_o though_o we_o be_v not_o whole_o justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n reply_n a_o popish_a and_o peevish_a reply_n yet_o this_o mean_v not_o but_o that_o we_o may_v have_v some_o part_n and_o portion_n of_o righteousness_n therein_o it_o follow_v then_o that_o we_o be_v not_o altogether_o save_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o that_o this_o be_v a_o supply_n or_o a_o addition_n but_o sainte_n paul_n suppose_v that_o which_o be_v true_a that_o for_o asmuch_o as_o god_n in_o forbid_v to_o commit_v whoredom_n have_v also_o forbid_v to_o rob_v to_o lie_v and_o to_o blaspheme_v and_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o he_o that_o fail_v in_o one_o point_n be_v culpable_a and_o guilty_a of_o the_o whole_a as_o s._n james_n say_v in_o the_o second_o chapter_n 2.10_o james._n 2.10_o and_o the_o better_a to_o perceive_v and_o understand_v this_o we_o must_v come_v to_o the_o promise_n and_o to_o the_o threat_n of_o the_o law_n concern_v the_o promise_n promise_v promise_v it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o that_o shall_v do_v some_o part_n of_o these_o thing_n shall_v live_v in_o they_o 10.5_o levit._fw-la 18.5_o rom_n 10.5_o but_o it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o shall_v do_v these_o thing_n god_n then_o require_v a_o sound_n and_o full_a accomplishment_n of_o the_o law_n otherwise_o there_o be_v no_o righteousness_n and_o who_o be_v he_o that_o fulfil_v the_o same_o true_o there_o have_v not_o be_v yet_o any_o such_o find_v it_o follow_v then_o that_o this_o promise_n be_v indeed_o of_o no_o force_n see_v that_o man_n fail_v in_o the_o performance_n of_o point_n put_v down_o with_o the_o same_o threat_v threat_v now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o threat_n which_o shall_v be_v declare_v more_o large_o here_o after_o but_o yet_o now_o we_o may_v in_o one_o word_n see_v that_o which_o god_n pronounce_v 3.10_o deu._n 27.26_o galat._n 3.10_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o shall_v not_o perform_v all_o these_o thing_n when_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v curse_v if_o we_o accomplish_v not_o all_o the_o whole_a law_n and_o do_v not_o satisfy_v the_o least_o point_n or_o title_n and_o the_o uttermoste_a farthing_n as_o man_n say_v behold_v how_o saint_n paul_n argument_n be_v forcible_a and_o strong_a that_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o partial_a righteousness_n as_o the_o papist_n imagine_n and_o affirm_v because_o god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o righteousness_n cut_v and_o hew_v in_o piece_n and_o morsel_n but_o declare_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o be_v all_o debtor_n and_o faulty_a because_o we_o fail_v and_o fall_v before_o he_o mark_v then_o how_o we_o must_v come_v to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o moreover_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v take_v all_o that_o he_o have_v or_o be_v able_a to_o bring_v before_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o in_o he_o but_o a_o curse_n god_n all_o that_o man_n have_v of_o himself_o be_v accurse_v before_o god_n for_o all_o that_o which_o the_o papist_n have_v imagine_v and_o forge_v touch_v their_o freewyll_n their_o meritorious_a work_n or_o work_n of_o supererrogation_n all_o that_o i_o say_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o vanity_n and_o illusion_n of_o satan_n so_o then_o in_o the_o first_o place_n we_o can_v be_v justify_v because_o we_o can_v have_v of_o ourselves_o so_o much_o as_o one_o good_a thought_n and_o beside_o although_o god_n shall_v have_v renew_a we_o by_o
the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n now_o there_o be_v also_o a_o quicken_a or_o a_o live_a death_n when_o we_o die_v be_v confound_v in_o ourselves_o because_o god_n know_v our_o iniquity_n &_o transgression_n and_o that_o we_o be_v scatter_v to_o be_v in_o that_o life_n as_o it_o be_v condemn_v creature_n and_o this_o be_v that_o that_o bring_v we_o to_o life_n and_o this_o be_v that_o also_o which_o i_o have_v say_v heretofore_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o seek_v after_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n till_o such_o time_n as_o we_o be_v wound_v with_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o that_o so_o deep_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o endure_v any_o long_o neither_o know_v on_o which_o side_n to_o turn_v us._n we_o have_v then_o yet_o now_o at_o the_o length_n the_o understanding_n of_o this_o place_n that_o be_v that_o saint_n paul_n declare_v doctrine_n three_o especial_a point_n of_o doctrine_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n place_v we_o not_o in_o condemnation_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o law_n which_o do_v that_o and_o beside_o we_o learn_v that_o albeit_o we_o die_v to_o the_o law_n when_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n yet_o that_o notwithstanding_o we_o obtain_v a_o new_a life_n and_o moreover_o he_o declare_v that_o this_o new_a life_n of_o we_o be_v without_o ourselves_o and_o in_o that_o he_o fay_v in_o that_o that_o i_o now_o live_v i_o live_v not_o any_o more_o say_v he_o myself_o but_o jesus_n christ_n live_v in_o i_o he_o set_v out_o and_o declare_v this_o matter_n which_o we_o ought_v well_o to_o mark_v and_o hold_v fast_o for_o without_o this_o say_n we_o shall_v never_o pure_o and_o simple_o perceive_v what_o this_o mean_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o or_o through_o faith_n for_o diverse_a have_v deceive_v themselves_o when_o they_o have_v find_v these_o word_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n error_n a_o double_a error_n for_o they_o mean_v when_o we_o be_v justify_v that_o our_o lord_n draw_v we_o out_o of_o the_o corruption_n in_o which_o we_o be_v and_o that_o he_o renew_v we_o by_o his_o spirit_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v serve_v he_o and_o also_o they_o declare_v that_o the_o good_a work_v which_o the_o christian_n do_v be_v no_o more_o from_o the_o law_n but_o from_o themselves_o and_o so_o that_o indeed_o which_o seem_v to_o have_v establish_v and_o strengthen_v saint_n paul_n doctrine_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o corrupt_a pervert_v and_o mar_v the_o same_o for_o they_o make_v this_o distinction_n distinction_n a_o doltish_a distinction_n that_o there_o be_v certain_a work_v of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v the_o work_v that_o man_n do_v of_o their_o free_a will_n and_o of_o their_o own_o motion_n and_o accord_n as_o where_o they_o suppose_v to_o merit_v and_o deserve_v and_o they_o say_v that_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o such_o work_v that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o moral_a work_v and_o duty_n as_o man_n call_v they_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o will_v be_v justify_v by_o spiritual_a work_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o we_o know_v that_o god_n guide_v we_o by_o his_o spirit_n but_o if_o it_o be_v so_o all_o saint_n paul_n doctrine_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v let_v we_o then_o hold_v fast_o the_o word_n which_o be_v here_o to_o be_v expound_v that_o be_v that_o we_o live_v not_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o our_o salvation_n be_v without_o ourselves_o not_o that_o we_o have_v not_o the_o assurance_n thereof_o in_o ourselves_o for_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o pledge_n unto_o we_o thereof_o as_o s._n peter_n say_v 8.16_o 2._o cor._n 1.22_o 2._o cor._n 5.5_o ephes_n 1.13.14_o rom._n 8.16_o &_o we_o have_v the_o

that_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v not_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o we_o live_v not_o any_o more_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o christ_n faithful_a a_o good_a difference_n between_o the_o hypocrite_n and_o the_o true_a faithful_a for_o he_o make_v here_o a_o indirect_a comparison_n between_o the_o hypocrite_n who_o deceive_v themselves_o in_o a_o vain_a overween_a of_o themselves_o and_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v altogether_o beat_v down_o and_o spoil_v of_o all_o presumption_n for_o they_o that_o think_v they_o have_v some_o dignity_n and_o glory_n and_o boast_v themselves_o in_o their_o merit_n or_o meritorious_a work_n as_o they_o call_v they_o such_o be_v they_o that_o live_v in_o

comfort_n a_o place_n full_a of_o great_a profit_n and_o comfort_n when_o they_o will_v warrant_v themselves_o against_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n but_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v instruct_v to_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n they_o be_v they_o condemn_v themselves_o and_o confess_v that_o they_o be_v void_a of_o all_o hope_n and_o trust_v as_o it_o be_v in_o themselves_o and_o be_v so_o
