compare_v i_o to_o plunderer_n in_o time_n of_o fight_n which_o will_v but_o weary_v the_o reader_n to_o see_v repeat_v whereas_o after_o other_o word_n i_o add_v i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o it_o will_v easy_o appear_v that_o those_o divine_n that_o with_o a_o concurrent_a judgement_n without_o almost_o a_o dissent_v voice_n have_v make_v faith_n a_o instrument_n in_o this_o work_n speak_v most_o apt_o and_o most_o agreeable_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o instrument_n he_n be_v please_v to_o reply_n but_o sir_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o sudden_a change_n through_o their_o great_a condescension_n i_o have_v receive_v animadversion_n from_o many_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a judicious_a divine_n that_o i_o know_v in_o england_n and_o of_o all_o these_o there_o be_v but_o

that_o to_o speak_v exact_o faith_n may_v better_o be_v call_v a_o condition_n of_o our_o justification_n so_o far_o mr._n c._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o why_o have_v we_o not_o the_o authority_n

to_o be_v so_o naked_o affirm_v no_o doubt_n but_o justification_n be_v a_o relative_a change_n and_o it_o be_v past_a controversy_n that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o the_o actual_a concurrence_n of_o

mention_n of_o justification_n by_o faith_n there_o must_v be_v some_o kind_n of_o efficiency_n in_o this_o concurrence_n justification_n there_o be_v somewhat_o of_o efficiency_n in_o man_n concurrence_n by_o faith_n in_o justification_n that_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o faith_n have_v no_o hand_n at_o all_o in_o it_o i_o can_v reach_v i_o bring_v for_o proof_n the_o
