and_o for_o christ_n to_o salvation_n unto_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v 3_o but_o in_o asmuch_o as_o god_n be_v exceed_o merciful_a and_o exceed_o just_a and_o that_o his_o mercy_n do_v not_o abolish_v his_o justice_n which_o remain_v unviolated_a it_o behoove_v that_o his_o justice_n shall_v be_v full_o satisfy_v before_o such_o time_n as_o he_o can_v pour_v forth_o his_o mercy_n upon_o mankind_n and_o therefore_o that_o christ_n shall_v be_v god_n and_o man_n 4_o for_o he_o who_o be_v only_a man_n can_v be_v able_a to_o sustain_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n nor_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o who_o be_v only_a god_n because_o that_o god_n can_v be_v subject_a unto_o no_o kind_n of_o suffer_v 5_o therefore_o god_n the_o father_n be_v draw_v in_o mercy_n will_v have_v his_o

christ_n 10_o the_o final_a likewise_o be_v twofold_a the_o one_o in_o respect_n of_o god_n and_o that_o be_v that_o he_o may_v declare_v his_o righteousness_n unto_o man_n by_o partake_v the_o same_o

only_o a_o most_o sure_a witness_n of_o our_o engraff_n into_o christ_n and_o therefore_o of_o our_o free_a absolution_n in_o he_o 12_o this_o righteousness_n see_v it_o can_v be_v give_v unto_o any_o

gather_v that_o they_o who_o have_v be_v once_o endue_v by_o god_n with_o this_o righteousness_n can_v never_o fall_v away_o from_o his_o grace_n and_o as_o for_o they_o that_o shall_v never_o be_v partaker_n hereof_o they_o shall_v perish_v for_o ever_o we_o do_v therefore_o condemn_v those_o that_o gainsay_v this_o doctrine_n i_o the_o libertine_n and_o the_o epicure_n who_o when_o they_o hear_v that_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o work_n nor_o by_o his_o own_o righteousness_n but_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o another_o namely_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n impute_v

iii_o osiander_n who_o hold_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o the_o essential_a righteousness_n of_o god_n defend_v by_o william_n qvarcinus_n tarbiensis_n principle_n concern_v sanctification_n xxiiii_o see_v the_o effect_n of_o faith_n be_v twofold_a justification_n and_o sanctification_n it_o follow_v that_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o former_a we_o adjoin_v the_o latter_a unto_o it_o 1_o here_o first_o of_o all_o we_o do_v especial_o distinguish_v sanctification_n whereof_o we_o be_v now_o to_o speak_v from_o that_o most_o perfect_a integrity_n which_o in_o christ_n be_v impute_v unto_o we_o as_o the_o effect_n be_v to_o be_v sever_v from_o the_o cause_n and_o the_o fruit_n from_o the_o tree_n 2_o to_o express_v this_o whereof_o we_o now_o speak_v there_o do_v occur_v many_o &_o diverse_a name_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o be_v these_o especial_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n sanctification_n regeneration_n newness_n of_o life_n baptism_n take_v passive_o spirit_n mortification_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o quicken_a of_o the_o new_a with_o other_o the_o like_a phrase_n which_o will_v be_v too_o long_o to_o be_v here_o recite_v 3_o sanctification_n in_o this_o place_n we_o describe_v to_o be_v a_o effect_n procede_v from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o faithful_a whereby_o by_o a_o little_a &_o a_o little_a even_o unto_o the_o end_n of_o this_o life_n as_o the_o natural_a corruption_n be_v purge_v so_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v repair_v in_o we_o until_o after_o death_n it_o be_v perfect_o finish_v in_o the_o other_o world_n 4_o this_o gift_n as_o also_o all_o other_o which_o it_o bestow_v upon_o we_o do_v the_o holy_a ghost_n whole_o draw_v from_o christ_n in_o who_o the_o scripture_n give_v we_o special_o to_o consider_v in_o his_o death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n the_o subdue_a of_o that_o original_a corruption_n of_o we_o which_o be_v impute_v unto_o he_o whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o divide_v our_o whole_a sanctification_n into_o these_o three_o member_n mortification_n burial_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o rise_n again_o of_o the_o new_a 5_o the_o mortification_n of_o the_o old_a man_n we_o call_v the_o effect_n of_o that_o spiritual_a and_o most_o powerful_a application_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n whereby_o our_o corruption_n receave_v a_o death_n wound_n so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o more_o so_o powerful_a to_o stir_v up_o in_o our_o mind_n wicked_a motion_n &_o such_o as_o be_v contrary_a unto_o god_n will_n 6_o the_o bury_n of_o the_o old_a man_n be_v also_o a_o effect_n of_o the_o spiritual_a application_n of_o christ_n burial_n whereby_o our_o old_a man_n be_v already_o wound_v by_o that_o deadly_a stroke_n die_v by_o little_a and_o little_a until_o at_o the_o length_n after_o the_o death_n of_o this_o body_n it_o be_v bring_v to_o nothing_o for_o as_o the_o burial_n of_o the_o body_n be_v a_o go_v forward_o of_o death_n so_o also_o the_o bury_n of_o the_o old_a man_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o continuance_n still_o proceed_v further_a and_o further_o of_o that_o mortification_n which_o go_v before_o 7_o the_o raise_n again_o of_o the_o new_a man_n be_v also_o a_o effect_n of_o the_o spiritual_a application_n of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o new_a man_n be_v raise_v up_o in_o we_o that_o be_v that_o the_o quality_n of_o our_o mind_n to_o wit_n our_o
understanding_n and_o will_n be_v renew_a unto_o true_a holiness_n of_o life_n 8_o these_o be_v renew_a by_o faith_n pour_v into_o we_o though_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o be_v here_o we_o do_v but_o in_o a_o sort_n understand_v and_o will_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v of_o god_n yet_o nevertheless_o our_o work_n which_o belong_v unto_o god_n service_n be_v favourablie_o accept_v by_o his_o majesty_n as_o proceed_v from_o christ_n live_v and_o work_v in_o we_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 9_o in_o this_o respect_n then_o we_o make_v this_o difference_n between_o philosophical_a and_o christian_a virtue_n that_o the_o former_a proceed_n from_o a_o mind_n not_o yet_o regenerate_v be_v no_o other_o then_o filthy_a and_o impure_a in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n whereas_o the_o latter_a on_o the_o other_o side_n do_v of_o favour_n please_v god_n and_o be_v in_o mercy_n crown_v by_o he_o because_o he_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o fruit_n of_o faith_n flow_v from_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o our_o purity_n and_o holiness_n 10_o out_o of_o these_o thing_n which_o have_v be_v speak_v may_v be_v understand_v not_o only_o all_o the_o part_n of_o our_o sanctification_n but_o even_o the_o cause_n which_o concur_v for_o the_o make_n uppe_o thereof_o may_v be_v so_o easy_o gather_v as_o it_o may_v be_v well_o perceave_v that_o we_o put_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o efficient_a faith_n for_o the_o instrumental_a the_o force_n and_o efficacy_n of_o that_o essential_a holiness_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o the_o material_a the_o renew_v of_o our_o whole_a mind_n from_o impure_a unto_o pure_a and_o upright_a quality_n for_o the_o formal_a and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n tend_v unto_o his_o honour_n and_o the_o love_n of_o our_o neighbour_n according_a unto_o the_o prescript_n rule_v of_o the_o first_o and_o second_o table_n for_o the_o final_a cause_n thereof_o 11_o whence_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o libertin_n who_o loathe_v the_o practice_n of_o good_a work_n be_v not_o to_o be_v reckon_v up_o amongst_o the_o number_n of_o true_a christian_n see_v they_o neglect_v the_o chief_a end_n of_o a_o christian_a life_n it_o appear_v also_o that_o the_o pelagian_o and_o the_o half_a pellagian_o the_o papist_n be_v to_o be_v detest_v because_o the_o former_a of_o they_o do_v affirm_v that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v by_o nature_n only_o the_o latter_a partly_o by_o nature_n and_o partly_o by_o grace_n defend_v by_o frances_n p●fayrius_n of_o bearne_a principle_n concern_v the_o justification_n of_o sinful_a man_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o god._n xxvi_o 1_o in_o asmuch_o as_n our_o whole_a salvation_n consist_v in_o our_o justification_n before_o god_n it_o be_v needful_a that_o we_o maintain_v the_o true_a doctrine_n thereof_o against_o all_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o same_o if_o so_o be_v that_o we_o will_v obtain_v salvation_n 2_o this_o justification_n than_o be_v when_o god_n do_v attribute_v the_o sanctification_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n perform_v for_o mankind_n unto_o those_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o 3_o for_o whereas_o god_n be_v exceed_o merciful_a and_o excedinglie_o just_a his_o mercy_n indeed_o do_v desire_v the_o redemption_n of_o man_n but_o his_o justice_n demand_v a_o absolute_a and_o every_o way_n a_o perfect_a satisfaction_n for_o the_o same_o 4_o to_o the_o end_n therefore_o that_o the_o lord_n may_v bestow_v his_o mercy_n upon_o we_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o his_o justice_n shall_v be_v satisfy_v 5_o now_o the_o most_o severe_a justice_n of_o god_n can_v not_o be_v satisfy_v either_o by_o he_o who_o shall_v be_v only_a man_n because_o no_o creature_n no_o not_o the_o angel_n themselves_o can_v so_o sustain_v the_o weight_n of_o god_n anger_n as_o they_o may_v be_v deliver_v therfrom_o much_o less_o deliver_v other_o or_o yet_o by_o he_o who_o shall_v be_v only_a god_n because_o the_o deity_n can_v be_v subject_a unto_o any_o suffering_n 6_o therefore_o god_n the_o father_n move_v by_o his_o unspeakable_a mercy_n will_v have_v that_o only_a son_n of_o he_o coessential_a and_o coaeternal_a with_o he_o as_o he_o have_v promise_v unto_o the_o father_n when_o sin_n first_o enter_v into_o the_o world_n at_o the_o time_n appoint_v to_o become_v true_a man_n who_o as_o be_v true_a god_n and_o true_a man_n without_o any_o confusion_n of_o the_o two_o nature_n may_v reconcile_v man_n with_o god_n 7_o of_o the_o justice_n of_o this_o mediator_n the_o which_o justice_n be_v lay_v against_o those_o thing_n that_o make_v we_o guilty_a of_o god_n wrath_n there_o be_v three_o part_n the_o one_o be_v the_o penalty_n sustain_v for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n which_o he_o discharge_v to_o the_o very_a

original_a blemish_n or_o by_o sin_v sin_n and_o also_o by_o the_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o most_o bitter_a fruit_n of_o that_o root_n the_o three_o be_v the_o repair_n of_o our_o human_a nature_n in_o that_o most_o perfect_a humanity_n which_o christ_n take_v upon_o he_o whereby_o all_o our_o corruption_n and_o stain_n be_v blot_v out_o 8_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n profit_v we_o nothing_o unless_o it_o be_v make_v we_o 9_o now_o it_o become_v we_o not_o by_o any_o infusion_n either_o essential_a as_o osiander_n dream_v or_o qualitative_a as_o the_o jangle_a sophister_n do_v
