justice_n do_v come_v by_o our_o work_n than_o have_v we_o wherein_o to_o rejoice_v and_o glory_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o be_v it_o that_o god_n do_v choose_v the_o vile_a thing_n of_o

the_o power_n of_o do_v good_a be_v not_o of_o ourselves_o nor_o in_o ourselves_o because_o we_o be_v the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n create_v to_o good_a work_n and_o this_o creation_n say_v the_o

to_o the_o corinthian_n 3._o 2._o cor._n 12.2_o and_o 3._o our_o rejoice_v shall_v be_v not_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o the_o man_n which_o be_v christ_n and_o we_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v with_o

this_o serve_v to_o we_o for_o two_o thing_n to_o instruct_v we_o not_o with_o papist_n or_o other_o whatsoever_o to_o asscribe_v merit_n to_o our_o work_n or_o to_o esteem_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o

declare_v 11.5_o rom._n 11.5_o that_o the_o remnant_n which_o be_v save_v be_v reserve_v according_a to_o the_o election_n of_o grace_n and_o thereupon_o conclude_v that_o if_o election_n be_v of_o

conceive_v of_o death_n have_v no_o sense_n nor_o sight_n nor_o hope_v of_o a_o permanent_a and_o endless_a life_n but_o the_o godly_a man_n who_o find_v his_o inward_a man_n renew_v daily_a and_o

to_o all_o the_o joy_n of_o this_o life_n how_o much_o will_v they_o esteem_v of_o that_o renew_n grace_n that_o bring_v man_n to_o the_o hope_n of_o a_o inheritance_n immortal_a and_o how_o careful_a

which_o the_o apostle_n say_v 12.14_o heb._n 12.14_o that_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v god_n for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o the_o saint_n sigh_v continual_o in_o this_o
