with_o good_a work_n to_o declare_v and_o evidence_n a_o person_n to_o be_v in_o a_o justify_v estate_n three_o therefore_o and_o last_o for_o the_o full_a illustration_n of_o this_o whole_a matter_n we_o will_v careful_o notice_n the_o different_a question_n handle_v by_o the_o two_o apostle_n s._n paul_n and_o s._n james_n the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n and_o

which_o now_o be_v agitate_a betwixt_o romanist_n and_o we_o what_o be_v the_o true_a ground_n upon_o which_o a_o sinner_n be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o pronounce_v by_o he_o just_o as_o if_o he_o have_v perfect_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o to_o hammer_v down_o these_o proud_a justiciaries_n he_o conclude_v that_o the_o only_a ground_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o a_o sinner_n before_o god_n be_v the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n lay_v hold_v upon_o by_o faith_n and_o total_o seclude_v good_a work_n from_o have_v any_o causal_a influence_n upon_o
