conjoin_v in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o our_o life_n and_o conversation_n both_o before_o god_n and_o man_n no_o work_n in_o man_n but_o faith_n be_v require_v to_o his_o justification_n though_o in_o god_n there_o be_v respect_n to_o his_o own_o free_a mercy_n and_o to_o christ_n merit_n but_o in_o our_o life_n faith_n and_o work_n must_v go_v hand_n in_o hand_n together_o now_o that_o these_o may_v thus_o be_v well_o distinguish_v i_o show_v it_o plain_o in_o the_o fire_n be_v both_o heat_n and_o light_n yet_o in_o the_o warm_n of_o the_o body_n the_o heat_n have_v force_v only_o and_o not_o light_n though_o to_o many_o other_o use_v it_o serve_v necessary_o even_o so_o in_o a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v require_v both_o faith_n and_o work_v but_o to_o justify_v he_o faith_n only_o be_v require_v though_o work_n be_v necessary_a through_o his_o whole_a life_n for_o they_o justify_v we_o before_o man_n and_o win_v unto_o we_o a_o testimony_n of_o our_o justification_n before_o god_n not_o only_o in_o our_o own_o heart_n but_o from_o the_o lord_n jam._n 2._o 21._o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o content_v ourselves_o with_o a_o faith_n in_o speculation_n void_a of_o work_n but_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o our_o calling_n do_v what_o good_a we_o can_v for_o god_n glory_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o our_o brethren_n the_o three_o head_n from_o whence_o

therefore_o do_v separate_v themselves_o from_o our_o church_n as_o be_v no_o true_a member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n to_o prevent_v this_o occasion_n of_o sin_v three_o rule_n must_v be_v

of_o rome_n whereupon_o we_o see_v there_o be_v just_a cause_n our_o church_n shall_v be_v repute_v the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n and_o a_o good_a member_n of_o his_o catholic_a church_n second_o observe_v the_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n towards_o jew_n the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n which_o in_o their_o time_n without_o all_o doubt_n be_v exceed_o corrupt_a for_o the_o

of_o thief_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o christ_n do_v not_o separate_v from_o that_o church_n neither_o teach_v his_o disciple_n so_o to_o do_v but_o be_v present_a at_o their_o sacrifice_n and_o

unto_o they_o in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o their_o example_n must_v teach_v we_o that_o so_o long_o as_o our_o church_n hold_v christ_n we_o must_v esteem_v it_o to_o be_v the_o

true_a church_n of_o christ_n now_o their_o judgement_n church_n be_v not_o slight_o to_o be_v regard_v but_o to_o be_v prefer_v far_o before_o the_o rash_a opinion_n of_o private_a man_n for_o the_o

of_o doctrine_n and_o therefore_o also_o can_v judge_v what_o company_n of_o man_n be_v a_o true_a church_n and_o what_o be_v not_o and_o this_o their_o judgement_n also_o must_v confirm_v we_o in_o this_o truth_n that_o this_o our_o church_n be_v a_o true_a member_n of_o god_n catholic_a church_n now_o whereas_o some_o allege_v the_o want_n of_o our_o church_n to_o make_v it_o no_o church_n i_o answer_v though_o i_o will_v not_o excuse_v any_o default_n in_o it_o wherein_o i●_n be_v want_v to_o that_o which_o god_n word_n require_v but_o rather_o desire_n that_o the_o righteousness_n thereof_o may_v break_v forth_o as_o the_o light_n and_o salvation_n 1._o thereof_o as_o a_o burn_a lamp_n yet_o this_o may_v be_v say_v in_o behalf_n of_o our_o church_n that_o the_o want_v thereof_o be_v not_o such_o as_o do_v anyway_o raze_v the_o foundation_n of_o religion_n or_o of_o god_n holy_a worship_n and_o so_o can_v not_o make_v it_o to_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n and_o therefore_o none_o ought_v to_o separate_v from_o it_o for_o such_o want_n and_o yet_o this_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o god_n servant_n may_v in_o a_o godly_a manner_n desire_v the_o reformation_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v amiss_o for_o a_o good_a church_n may_v be_v better_v and_o we_o ought_v to_o strive_v after_o perfection_n the_o second_o offence_n take_v from_o he_o church_n be_v from_o the_o diversity_n of_o church_n opinion_n that_o be_v therein_o for_o hence_o many_o reason_n thus_o learned_a man_n be_v of_o so_o many_o opinion_n that_o we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o follow_v and_o therefore_o we_o will_v be_v of_o no_o religion_n till_o the_o truth_n be_v establish_v by_o some_o general_a council_n and_o all_o agree_v in_o one_o for_o the_o avoid_v of_o this_o offence_n we_o must_v know_v that_o though_o man_n remedy_n dis●er_v in_o sundry_a opinion_n in_o the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n yet_o they_o all_o agree_v 1_o in_o the_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o in_o the_o foundation_n of_o god_n worship_n their_o difference_n be_v in_o matter_n beside_o the_o foundation_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v hinder_v none_o from_o receive_v and_o embrace_v true_a religion_n again_o it_o be_v 2_o god_n will_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v diversity_n of_o opinion_n yea_o schism_n and_o heresy_n in_o his_o church_n that_o man_n may_v be_v prove_v whether_o they_o hold_v
