by_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v any_o part_n of_o our_o inward_a righteousness_n or_o a_o work_n wrought_v within_o we_o albeit_o george_n keith_n think_v this_o distinction_n too_o nice_a ergo_fw-la we_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o any_o righteousness_n wrought_v or_o inherent_a within_o we_o see_v faith_n be_v one_o of_o the_o best_a part_n of_o that_o righteousness_n and_o first_o in_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n which_o can_v not_o have_v be_v pass_v by_o in_o the_o business_n the_o antecedent_n i_o prove_v because_o in_o the_o point_n of_o justification_n faith_n and_o work_n be_v still_o state_v in_o a_o diametral_a opposition_n as_o i_o show_v before_o i_o will_v not_o repeat_v which_o if_o faith_n justify_v as_o a_o work_n will_v be_v a_o oppose_a of_o justification_n by_o work_n to_o a_o justification_n by_o work_n and_o will_v infer_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o not_o by_o work_n which_o be_v both_o contradiction_n and_o nonsense_n four_o the_o righteousness_n wrought_v and_o inherent_a in_o our_o self_n be_v a_o righteousness_n of_o work_n or_o else_o adam_n can_v not_o have_v be_v such_o nor_o do_v the_o adversary_n deny_v it_o but_o george_n keith_n mock_v at_o our_o distinction_n of_o faith_n in_o justification_n as_o it_o be_v not_o consider_v as_o a_o work_n but_o correlative_o as_o be_v too_o nice_a curious_a and_o altogether_o impertinent_a in_o handle_v controversy_n of_o religion_n and_o a_o work_n only_o delight_v in_o by_o vain_a jangler_n quakerism_n not_o popery_n pag._n 45_o 46_o for_o which_o i_o

not_o justify_v before_o god_n by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o work_n even_o our_o work_n of_o grace_n proceed_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o we_o for_o the_o apostle_n never_o grant_v any_o interest_n to_o any_o of_o our_o work_n in_o justification_n but_o still_o exclude_v all_o of_o they_o and_o whatever_o afford_v any_o matter_n of_o glory_v in_o ourselves_o rom._n 3.27.28_o and_o 4.2_o and_o uncontrollable_o any_o man_n that_o be_v justify_v by_o his_o judge_n because_o of_o his_o inherent_a righteousness_n in_o himself_o have_v still_o some_o matter_n of_o glory_v in_o himself_o because_o the_o inherent_a righteousness_n of_o his_o own_o person_n in_o justice_n bring_v he_o off_o and_o the_o same_o apostle_n also_o most_o peremptory_o say_v rom._n 4.4_o and_o 11.6_o that_o if_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n than_o it_o can_v be_v by_o grace_n and_o that_o because_o of_o a_o clear_a contradiction_n for_o say_v he_o that_o which_o be_v of_o work_n can_v be_v of_o grace_n otherwise_o work_n be_v no_o more_o work_n nor_o grace_n any_o more_o grace_n but_o their_o nature_n on_o both_o hand_n be_v quite_o destroy_v we_o be_v not_o then_o justify_v by_o any_o righteousness_n wrought_v or_o inherent_a in_o ourselves_o last_o we_o be_v not_o justify_v before_o god_n by_o our_o own_o law-righteousness_n as_o be_v evident_a from_o rom._n 3.20_o 21._o and_o 10.3_o 5._o galat._n 2.21_o and_o 3.11_o 12._o and_o 5.4_o philip._n 3.9_o but_o all_o the_o righteousness_n wrought_v or_o inherent_a in_o we_o be_v our_o own_o law-righteousness_n therefore_o we_o

before_o that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o our_o do_n and_o work_n and_o our_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o so_o do_v the_o apostle_n rom_n 10.5_o galat._n 3.12_o when_o he_o after_o moses_n describe_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o distinguish_v it_o thereby_o from_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o consist_v not_o therein_o three_o the_o righteousness_n wrought_v or_o inherent_a within_o a_o man_n conform_v he_o to_o the_o law_n in_o himself_o though_o as_o long_o as_o its_o imperfect_a it_o can_v justify_v he_o before_o god_n

law-righteousness_n most_o clear_o or_o else_o no_o righteousness_n can_v ever_o have_v be_v such_o that_o can_v be_v imagine_v george_n keith_n then_o must_v not_o tell_v we_o over_o again_o as_o once_o he_o have_v in_o his_o quakerism_n no_o popery_n page_n 53._o that_o our_o own_o law-righteousness_n be_v only_o that_o which_o a_o man_n work_v in_o and_o by_o himself_o without_o the_o

therefore_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o a_o inward_a righteousness_n wrought_v and_o inherent_a within_o we_o ans_fw-fr i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n for_o first_o though_o these_o be_v necessary_a to_o
