deceive_v we_o and_o turn_v religion_n into_o word_n and_o holiness_n into_o hypocrisy_n and_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n into_o a_o snare_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n into_o a_o lie_n for_o

than_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n or_o of_o the_o law_n he_o do_v not_o admit_v we_o to_o a_o covenant_n of_o idleness_n and_o a_o incurious_a walk_n in_o a_o state_n of_o disobedience_n but_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n lead_v we_o to_o repentance_n and_o when_o he_o give_v we_o better_a promise_n he_o intend_v we_o shall_v pay_v he_o a_o better_a obedience_n when_o he_o forgive_v we_o what_o be_v past_a he_o intend_v we_o shall_v sin_v no_o more_o when_o he_o offer_v we_o his_o grace_n he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o when_o he_o cause_v we_o to_o distrust_v

this_o covenant_n of_o faith_n and_o mercy_n be_v also_o a_o covenant_n of_o holiness_n and_o the_o grace_n that_o pardon_v we_o do_v also_o purify_v we_o for_o so_o say_v the_o apostle_n he_o that_o have_v this_o hope_n purify_v himself_o even_o as_o god_n be_v pure_a and_o when_o we_o be_v so_o than_o we_o be_v justify_v indeed_o this_o be_v the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o law_n of_o

〈◊〉_d by_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n by_o righteousness_n evangelical_n by_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o

up_o in_o this_o proposition_n that_o in_o the_o question_n of_o justification_n and_o salvation_n faith_n and_o good_a work_n be_v no_o part_n of_o a_o distinction_n but_o member_n of_o one_o entire_a body_n faith_n and_o good_a work_n together_o work_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n that_o be_v that_o i_o may_v speak_v plain_o justify_v faith_n contain_v in_o it_o obedience_n and_o if_o this_o be_v make_v good_a than_o the_o two_o apostle_n be_v reconcile_v to_o each_o other_o and_o both_o of_o they_o to_o the_o necessity_n the_o indispensible_a necessity_n of_o a_o good_a life_n now_o that_o justify_v and_o save_v faith_n must_v be_v define_v by_o something_o more_o than_o a_o act_n of_o understanding_n appear_v not_o only_o in_o this_o that_o s._n peter_n reckon_v faith_n

this_o also_o because_o a_o error_n in_o life_n and_o whatsoever_o be_v against_o holiness_n be_v against_o faith_n and_o therefore_o s._n paul_n reckon_v the_o lawless_a and_o the_o disobedient_a murderer_n of_o parent_n man-stealing_a and_o such_o thing_n to_o be_v against_o sound_a doctrine_n for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n be_v call_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v according_a to_o godliness_n and_o when_o s._n paul_n pray_v against_o ungodly_a man_n he_o add_v this_o reason_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d for_o all_o man_n have_v not_o faith_n 2._o

now_o from_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o faith_n be_v godliness_n because_o all_o wickedness_n be_v infidelity_n it_o be_v a_o apostasy_n from_o the_o faith_n ille_fw-la erit_fw-la ille_fw-la
