A50426	St. Paul's travailing pangs, with his legal-Galatians, or, A treatise of justification wherein these two dissertions are chiefly evinced viz. 1. That justification is not by the law, but by faith, 2. That yet men are generally prone to seek justification by the law : together with several characters assigned of a legal and evangical spirit : to which is added (by way of appendix) the manner of transferring justification from the law to faith / by Zach.

so_o the_o justification_n follow_v upon_o one_o of_o these_o righteousness_n viz._n that_o of_o the_o law_n be_v of_o debt_n upon_o the_o other_o viz._n the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n be_v of_o grace_n i_o shall_v draw_v up_o the_o term_n that_o belong_v to_o either_o part_n of_o the_o distinction_n whether_o of_o righteousness_n or_o justification_n together_o that_o so_o you_o may_v see_v the_o apostle_n be_v full_a of_o these_o two_o and_o only_o these_o two_o as_o also_o that_o the_o scripture_n may_v appear_v wherein_o this_o subject_n be_v touch_v at_o and_o so_o fall_v upon_o a_o

not_o have_v this_o high_a honour_n from_o god_n that_o his_o once_o offering_n shall_v serve_v instead_o of_o offer_v a_o hundred_o time_n over_o which_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n be_v

have_v only_o think_v that_o he_o offer_v for_o the_o age_n to_o come_v after_o his_o suffering_n i_o say_v he_o will_v rather_o have_v express_v himself_o thus_o if_o out_o highpriest_n jesus_n

in_o a_o age_n or_o some_o set-period_n of_o time_n and_o this_o he_o must_v do_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n he_o will_v never_o have_v express_v himself_o thus_o then_o must_v he_o often_o
