whole_a wherefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o sure_a demonstration_n that_o faith_n only_o justify_v than_o be_v hold_v forth_o in_o these_o very_a word_n of_o the_o sacrament_n whereby_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v represent_v in_o that_o holy_a banquet_n under_o the_o similitude_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n another_o argument_n unless_o your_o righteousness_n exceed_v 4._o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n you_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n therefore_o not_o faith_n only_o but_o also_o work_v of_o righteousness_n exalt_v we_o to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n i_o answer_v by_o these_o word_n the_o lord_n give_v we_o serious_a instruction_n what_o manner_n of_o life_n they_o ought_v to_o live_v that_o be_v justify_v but_o he_o do_v not_o thereby_o signify_v what_o be_v the_o proper_a cause_n of_o justification_n one_o judgement_n shall_v be_v make_v of_o the_o cause_n of_o thing_n and_o another_o of_o their_o effect_n if_o you_o inquire_v for_o the_o cause_n of_o justification_n the_o lord_n have_v resolve_v that_o doubt_n thy_o faith_n have_v save_v thou_o this_o be_v life_n eternal_a that_o they_o shall_v know_v thou_o 17._o the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n who_o thou_o have_v send_v in_o like_a manner_n paul_n express_v himself_o if_o thou_o confess_v the_o lord_n 9_o jesus_n with_o thy_o mouth_n and_o believe_v with_o thy_o heart_n that_o god_n raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a thou_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o if_o you_o inquire_v what_o manner_n of_o life_n they_o ought_v to_o live_v that_o make_v sincere_a profession_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n we_o be_v teach_v in_o this_o place_n and_o many_o other_o say_n of_o scripture_n that_o they_o ought_v to_o differ_v much_o from_o the_o life_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n to_o wit_n that_o they_o who_o be_v create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n shall_v behave_v themselves_o without_o a_o pharisaical_a vizard_n of_o external_a holiness_n or_o a_o proud_a conceitedness_n of_o their_o own_o righteousness_n but_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v adorn_v and_o beautify_v with_o sincerity_n and_o uprightness_n of_o mind_n and_o persevere_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o good_a work_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o they_o he_o say_v not_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v justify_v by_o they_o but_o that_o be_v justify_v by_o his_o grace_n we_o shall_v walk_v in_o they_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n worthy_a of_o our_o vocation_n another_o argument_n every_o tree_n that_o bear_v not_o good_a fruit_n shall_v be_v cut_v down_o and_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n luke_n 3_o therefore_o faith_n only_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o salvation_n without_o repentance_n i_o acknowledge_v the_o divine_a authority_n of_o that_o prophecy_n which_o be_v true_a as_o it_o be_v general_o know_v to_o all_o that_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o gospel_n for_o who_o will_v endure_v a_o unfruitful_a tree_n that_o cumber_v the_o ground_n and_o bear_v either_o no_o fruit_n at_o all_o or_o such_o as_o be_v hurtful_a to_o the_o husbandman_n but_o suppose_v it_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n and_o beautiful_a to_o look_v upon_o i_o will_v ask_v they_o whether_o the_o abundance_n of_o fruit_n be_v the_o cause_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o rather_o the_o demonstration_n of_o the_o tree_n fruitfulness_n and_o whether_o the_o fruit_n do_v not_o rather_o receive_v their_o growth_n from_o the_o root_n whence_o they_o come_v therefore_o if_o repentance_n be_v reckon_v among_o fruit_n it_o do_v not_o make_v the_o man_n in_o who_o it_o receive_v its_o first_o beginning_n perfect_a and_o good_a but_o only_a evidence_n what_o manner_n of_o man_n he_o be_v now_o and_o have_v former_o be_v for_o unless_o a_o wicked_a life_n have_v go_v before_o no_o repentance_n have_v follow_v after_o moreover_o be_v repentance_n can_v do_v no_o good_a unless_o faith_n be_v join_v therewith_o by_o which_o a_o break_a heart_a sinner_n may_v get_v access_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n but_o you_o may_v say_v be_v not_o grief_n and_o remorse_n for_o evil_a deed_n and_o resolution_n to_o the_o contrary_a thing_n very_o acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o be_v not_o only_o conducible_a to_o the_o amendment_n of_o former_a miscarriage_n but_o also_o a_o great_a cause_n of_o future_a reformation_n i_o answer_v the_o sorrow_n of_o a_o afflict_a conscience_n which_o we_o call_v repentance_n repentance_n be_v a_o lovely_a effect_n but_o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o evil_a cause_n yet_o i_o deny_v not_o that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a excellent_a thing_n and_o never_o too_o late_o but_o always_o acceptable_a to_o god_n if_o so_o be_v it_o be_v accompany_v with_o faith_n in_o christ._n neither_o do_v i_o deny_v that_o by_o mean_n thereof_o man_n be_v deter_v from_o their_o customary_a evil_a course_n and_o stir_v up_o to_o the_o exercise_n of_o virtue_n which_o though_o we_o grant_v to_o be_v true_a what_o do_v all_o this_o avail_n towards_o the_o justify_n of_o a_o sinner_n from_o those_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v former_o commit_v if_o a_o man_n have_v transgress_v the_o law_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o be_v arraign_v before_o a_o judge_n be_v force_v to_o give_v account_n of_o all_o the_o action_n of_o his_o life_n will_v it_o be_v enough_o for_o he_o to_o say_v i_o be_v in_o a_o error_n or_o i_o repent_v of_o my_o fault_n will_v fear_n of_o judgement_n or_o shame_n set_v a_o man_n free_a from_o the_o condemnation_n due_a to_o sin_n unless_o the_o righteousness_n of_o a_o bleed_a saviour_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n do_v interpose_v and_o ward_v off_o the_o stroke_n of_o divine_a vengeance_n from_o the_o guilty_a sinner_n without_o 9_o shed_v of_o blood_n say_v the_o apostle_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n now_o then_o if_o neither_o holiness_n of_o life_n nor_o prayer_n nor_o tear_n nor_o the_o blood_n of_o all_o the_o saint_n can_v avail_v any_o thing_n towards_o the_o mitigation_n of_o the_o bitterness_n of_o this_o judgement_n and_o the_o only_a remedy_n be_v the_o death_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n what_o will_v your_o repentance_n do_v in_o this_o case_n indeed_o i_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o scripture_n attribute_n much_o to_o repentance_n and_o there_o be_v glorious_a promise_n annex_v thereunto_o but_o two_o thing_n must_v be_v consider_v here_o first_o of_o how_o large_a a_o extent_n the_o promise_n be_v and_o belong_v next_o to_o who_o they_o do_v belong_v for_o there_o be_v some_o reward_n give_v in_o this_o life_n and_o other_o that_o be_v reserve_v for_o life_n eternal_a very_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v the_o benefit_n of_o redemption_n as_o it_o can_v not_o be_v purchase_v by_o any_o work_n of_o we_o so_o likewise_o it_o be_v not_o promise_v as_o the_o reward_n of_o repentance_n or_o if_o in_o any_o scripture_n it_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o promise_v it_o be_v not_o simple_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o repentance_n but_o for_o another_o cause_n to_o wit_n the_o faith_n of_o the_o worker_n and_o not_o the_o work_n itself_o therefore_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v put_v each_o of_o they_o in_o their_o own_o place_n and_o comprehend_v within_o their_o own_o bound_n that_o it_o may_v be_v understand_v aright_o what_o faith_n do_v and_o what_o repentance_n and_o what_o efficacy_n be_v in_o both_o and_o how_o they_o be_v distinguish_v from_o one_o another_o and_o also_o how_o they_o be_v join_v together_o do_v contribute_v mutual_a assistance_n to_o one_o another_o in_o the_o justification_n of_o the_o ungodly_a for_o though_o we_o deny_v repentance_n not_o that_o both_o be_v very_o please_v to_o god_n yet_o the_o one_o be_v acceptable_a to_o he_o one_o way_n and_o the_o other_o another_o way_n for_o faith_n be_v acceptable_a through_o christ_n but_o repentance_n only_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v also_o a_o certain_a truth_n that_o though_o by_o faith_n only_o as_o the_o procure_a cause_n we_o obtain_v justification_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n yet_o this_o very_a faith_n do_v not_o put_v forth_o its_o power_n of_o justify_v upon_o any_o but_o penitent_a and_o brokenhearted_a sinner_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o gospel_n we_o be_v so_o often_o invite_v to_o repentance_n not_o that_o it_o be_v not_o true_a faith_n only_o which_o justify_v without_o repentance_n but_o because_o faith_n if_o it_o be_v true_a justify_v no_o other_o but_o they_o that_o have_v turn_v from_o their_o sin_n in_o sincerity_n and_o be_v convert_v unto_o god_n by_o repentance_n for_o such_o as_o have_v no_o trouble_n of_o conscience_n nor_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n but_o run_v on_o obstinate_o against_o their_o conscience_n and_o continue_v in_o their_o evil_a course_n it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n for_o they_o to_o hope_v for_o justification_n by_o faith_n whereof_o they_o false_o boast_v for_o all_o such_o stouthearted_a sinner_n
