that_o holiness_n belong_v to_o sanctification_n than_o those_o that_o do_v thus_o calumniate_v they_o and_o very_o often_o they_o who_o talk_v most_o of_o be_v justify_v by_o good_a work_n have_v lest_o of_o they_o to_o show_v it_o be_v i_o know_v the_o business_n of_o the_o papist_n to_o confound_v the_o notion_n of_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n to_o make_v way_n for_o their_o justification_n by_o inherent_a righteousness_n that_o be_v if_o they_o will_v speak_v out_o by_o holiness_n for_o what_o else_o be_v inherent_a righteousness_n now_o that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v by_o holiness_n no_o man_n deny_v but_o be_v it_o by_o holiness_n therefore_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v or_o be_v not_o this_o to_o make_v justification_n and_o sanctification_n all_o one_o and_o true_o the_o papist_n have_v some_o reason_n so_o to_o do_v for_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n by_o which_o they_o get_v money_n as_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o indulgence_n and_o popish_a pardon_n upon_o purchase_v out_o of_o the_o pope_n treasury_n somewhat_o of_o the_o merit_n of_o other_o man_n who_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v have_v enough_o and_o to_o spare_v for_o those_o who_o have_v none_o of_o their_o own_o but_o why_o any_o of_o we_o shall_v be_v fond_a of_o that_o doctrine_n who_o have_v no_o such_o bargain_n to_o drive_v and_o that_o direct_o against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o own_o church_n i_o do_v not_o see_v and_o indeed_o the_o papist_n themselves_o how_o much_o soever_o they_o talk_v of_o the_o necessity_n of_o good_a work_n for_o justification_n do_v rather_o hold_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o they_o at_o all_o either_o to_o justification_n or_o salvation_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o wicked_a and_o devoid_a of_o holiness_n and_o good_a work_n but_o that_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o priest_n absolution_n or_o at_o lest_o by_o the_o pope_n indulgence_n he_o may_v go_v direct_o to_o heaven_n without_o any_o thing_n of_o holiness_n of_o goodwork_n other_o than_o give_v money_n to_o a_o priest_n by_o their_o doctrine_n without_o so_o much_o as_o touch_v at_o purgatory_n by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v but_o by_o way_n of_o commutation_n pay_v so_o much_o money_n in_o stead_n of_o holiness_n and_o a_o good_a life_n and_o all_o be_v safe_a however_o since_o it_o be_v among_o we_o agree_v on_o all_o hand_n for_o i_o know_v of_o no_o protestant_n that_o doubt_v it_o that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o holiness_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o good_a work_n and_o a_o godly_a life_n if_o not_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o justification_n at_o lest_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o sanctification_n let_v we_o all_o make_v it_o our_o business_n to_o be_v fruitful_a therein_o 6.22_o and_o if_o we_o can_v agree_v upon_o the_o punctilio_fw-la on_o what_o account_v it_o be_v necessary_a let_v we_o at_o least_o agree_v upon_o the_o practice_n of_o holiness_n and_o a_o godly_a life_n in_o so_o do_v we_o shall_v approve_v ourselves_o to_o god_n

towards_o the_o completion_n of_o that_o happiness_n which_o the_o text_n promise_v that_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v brief_o run_v over_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o text_n with_o some_o consequent_n thereof_o according_a to_o the_o two_o empase_n already_o mention_v there_o be_v a_o three_o to_o be_v after_o mention_v but_o before_o i_o leave_v these_o and_o come_v to_o it_o i_o shall_v further_o amplify_v by_o way_n of_o application_n on_o each_o of_o they_o and_o first_o as_o to_o that_o emphasis_n on_o the_o word_n just_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n which_o restrain_v the_o benefit_n of_o this_o promise_n whatever_o it_o be_v to_o the_o just_a or_o righteous_a person_n especial_o be_v attend_v with_o a_o exclusive_a of_o

be_v benefit_n we_o must_v make_v sure_a of_o the_o qualification_n that_o we_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a person_n where_o also_o we_o be_v not_o to_o consider_v the_o word_n just_o in_o a_o strict_a acceptation_n so_o as_o only_o to_o denote_v justice_n strict_o take_v as_o contradistinguish_v to_o holiness_n temperance_n and_o other_o virtue_n but_o as_o comprehensive_a of_o all_o that_o be_v necessary_a to_o denominate_v a_o person_n a_o just_a or_o righteous_a man_n a_o good_a man_n a_o man_n as_o here_o the_o phrase_n be_v in_o who_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v pleasure_n

not_o to_o trust_v in_o they_o to_o be_v justify_v by_o they_o either_o in_o whole_a or_o in_o part._n as_o to_o justification_n she_o tell_v we_o in_o the_o 11_o the_o article_n justification_n

their_o damnation_n that_o this_o be_v that_o justification_n or_o righteousness_n which_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o when_o he_o say_v no_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n but_o free_o by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o again_o he_o say_v we_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n because_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n that_o although_o this_o justification_n be_v free_a to_o we_o yet_o it_o come_v not_o so_o free_o to_o we_o that_o there_o be_v no_o ransom_n pay_v therefore_o at_o all_o but_o god_n have_v temper_v his_o justice_n and_o mercy_n together_o that_o he_o will_v neither_o by_o his_o justice_n condemn_v we_o to_o the_o everlasting_a captivity_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o prison_n of_o hell_n remedyless_a for_o ever_o without_o mercy_n nor_o by_o his_o mercy_n deliver_v we_o clear_o without_o justice_n or_o payment_n of_o a_o just_a ransom_n and_o whereas_o it_o lay_v not_o in_o we_o that_o to_o do_v he_o provide_v a_o ransom_n for_o we_o that_o be_v the_o most_o precious_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o his_o own_o most_o dear_a and_o best_a belove_a son_n jesus_n christ._n who_o beside_o this_o ransom_n fullfil_v the_o law_n for_o we_o perfect_o with_o much_o more_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n show_v that_o christ_n alone_o have_v pay_v the_o whole_a ransom_n and_o make_v full_a satisfaction_n to_o god_n justice_n and_o that_o our_o righteousness_n or_o good_a work_n come_v not_o in_o for_o any_o share_n or_o part_n thereof_o as_o if_o by_o they_o we_o shall_v at_o lest_o in_o part_n be_v justify_v this_o doctrine_n i_o know_v be_v not_o please_v to_o the_o socinian_o nor_o to_o the_o papist_n not_o to_o the_o socinian_o because_o they_o deny_v that_o any_o such_o satisfaction_n be_v make_v to_o god_n justice_n at_o all_o for_o if_o they_o shall_v allow_v that_o christ_n alone_o be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o sufficient_a satisfaction_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o they_o must_v allow_v he_o to_o be_v more_o than_o man._n and_o therefore_o in_o order_n to_o the_o deny_v of_o his_o divinity_n they_o deny_v his_o satisfaction_n too_o nor_o to_o the_o papist_n for_o though_o they_o allow_v a_o satisfaction_n to_o justice_n yet_o they_o will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v do_v at_o lest_o in_o part_n by_o ourselves_o to_o make_v way_n for_o purgatory_n and_o consequent_o for_o popish_a pardon_n for_o if_o we_o must_v pay_v part_n of_o the_o debt_n ourselves_o christ_n have_v not_o pay_v the_o whole_a and_o have_v not_o pay_v it_o in_o this_o life_n we_o must_v either_o pay_v it_o in_o purgatory_n or_o else_o by_o way_n of_o commutation_n pay_v money_n for_o the_o pope_n pardon_n to_o be_v excuse_v from_o it_o but_o we_o who_o be_v not_o concern_v for_o either_o of_o these_o as_o neither_o deny_v christ_n divinity_n nor_o be_v oblige_v to_o maintain_v purgatory_n have_v no_o reason_n to_o depart_v from_o the_o language_n of_o our_o own_o church_n now_o to_o make_v this_o the_o more_o clear_a our_o church_n observe_v further_a that_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n which_o must_v go_v together_o in_o our_o justification_n upon_o god_n part_n his_o great_a mercy_n and_o grace_n upon_o christ_n part_n justice_z that_o be_v the_o

and_o upon_o our_o part_n true_a and_o lively_a faith_n in_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o we_o but_o by_o god_n work_v in_o we_o so_o that_o in_o our_o justification_n be_v not_o only_a god_n mercy_n and_o grace_n but_o his_o justice_n also_o which_o the_o apostle_n call_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n and_o it_o consist_v in_o pay_v the_o ransom_n and_o fulfil_n the_o law_n and_o so_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v not_o shut_v out_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n in_o our_o justification_n but_o only_o shut_v out_o the_o justice_n of_o man_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o justice_n of_o our_o work_n as_o to_o be_v merit_n of_o deserve_v our_o justification_n and_o therefore_o s._n paul_n declare_v here_o nothing_o upon_o the_o behalf_n of_o man_n concern_v his_o
