the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v to_o conclude_v it_o have_v be_v the_o ancient_a and_o constant_a tradition_n of_o the_o church_n testify_v by_o the_o unanimous_a consent_n of_o all_o the_o father_n be_v never_o question_v by_o any_o until_o that_o peter_n martyr_n in_o this_o last_o age_n age_n first_o begin_v to_o doubt_v thereof_o and_o other_o since_o more_o bold_o adventure_v to_o contradict_v it_o their_o main_a reason_n or_o objection_n be_v these_o two_o first_o that_o the_o reward_n to_o come_v depend_v not_o upon_o the_o virtue_n or_o dignity_n of_o our_o work_n but_o only_o upon_o the_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n but_o his_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n be_v uniform_a and_o the_o same_o to_o all_o ergo_fw-la the_o reward_n also_o which_o be_v to_o be_v give_v by_o virtue_n thereof_o shall_v be_v so_o this_o objection_n proceed_v from_o that_o scrupulosity_n which_o many_o of_o we_o have_v to_o admit_v of_o any_o relation_n or_o connexion_n between_o our_o work_n and_o the_o reward_n to_o come_v whence_o also_o be_v that_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v do_v intuitu_fw-la mercedis_fw-la which_o be_v a_o assertion_n repugnant_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o scripture_n where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v wont_a to_o ground_v his_o exhortation_n upon_o the_o hope_n and_o promise_v of_o reward_n now_o what_o a_o unreasonable_a conceit_n be_v it_o to_o think_v that_o where_o wage_n be_v promise_v for_o the_o encouragement_n of_o the_o labourer_n the_o labourer_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o work_v without_o have_v any_o eye_n or_o respect_n to_o his_o wage_n but_o to_o the_o objection_n i_o answer_v thus_o that_o it_o be_v true_a the_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o reward_n namely_o that_o alone_o which_o make_v our_o work_n capable_a thereof_o without_o which_o they_o be_v not_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o our_o work_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o reward_n and_o the_o same_o merit_n of_o christ_n make_v differ_v work_n capable_a of_o a_o different_a reward_n their_o other_o objection_n have_v a_o little_a more_o likelihood_n and_o seem_v therefore_o somewhat_o more_o difficult_a to_o answer_v it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o parable_n mat._n 20._o where_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o vineyard_n the_o master_n whereof_o go_v out_o in_o the_o morning_n to_o hire_v labourer_n and_o agree_v with_o they_o for_o a_o penny_n a_o day_n three_o hour_n after_o or_o at_o the_o three_o hour_n and_o so_o again_o at_o the_o six_o and_o nine_o hour_n yea_o at_o the_o eleven_o but_o a_o hour_n before_o sun_n go_v down_o he_o do_v likewise_o and_o when_o they_o come_v all_o to_o receive_v their_o wage_n he_o give_v the_o last_o hire_v as_o much_o as_o he_o have_v agree_v with_o the_o first_o to_o wit_n every_o one_o a_o penny_n neither_o more_o nor_o less_o whence_o it_o seem_v to_o follow_v that_o the_o reward_n to_o come_v signify_v by_o the_o penny_n shall_v not_o be_v proportion_v according_a to_o the_o difference_n of_o work_n but_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o to_o all_o i_o answer_v first_o the_o parable_n prove_v no_o more_o but_o this_o that_o the_o soon_o or_o late_a come_n of_o man_n into_o the_o vineyard_n of_o the_o church_n for_o all_o be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v at_o one_o time_n nor_o in_o one_o age_n shall_v not_o make_v their_o reward_n great_a or_o lesser_a not_o that_o the_o reward_n shall_v not_o be_v different_a according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o our_o work_n second_o i_o add_v that_o this_o parable_n have_v respect_n to_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n not_o call_v nor_o to_o be_v call_v at_o the_o same_o time_n for_o the_o jew_n be_v hire_v into_o the_o vineyard_n betimes_o in_o the_o morning_n the_o gentile_n not_o till_o the_o day_n be_v far_o spend_v yet_o shall_v they_o by_o the_o goodness_n of_o their_o heavenly_a master_n receive_v the_o same_o reward_n of_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v promise_v to_o the_o jew_n with_o who_o the_o covenant_n be_v first_o make_v and_o who_o bear_v the_o heat_n of_o the_o day_n while_o the_o other_o stand_v idle_a beside_o in_o the_o new_a vineyard_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o turn_n be_v change_v for_o into_o it_o because_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o the_o gentile_n have_v first_o be_v hire_v though_o at_o several_a hour_n the_o jew_n be_v not_o to_o come_v in_o until_o the_o eleven_o hour_n yet_o when_o christ_n come_v to_o give_v we_o wage_n shall_v receive_v his_o penny_n that_o be_v eternal_a life_n as_o well_o as_o we_o this_o to_o be_v the_o genuine_a scope_n of_o the_o parable_n may_v be_v gather_v by_o that_o which_o be_v present_o subjoin_v by_o our_o saviour_n
