&_o so_o by_o consequent_a of_o his_o righteousness_n now_o saint_n paul_n show_v that_o this_o temporal_a life_n hinder_v not_o but_o that_o we_o may_v always_o live_v that_o be_v to_o say_v may_v always_o have_v full_a assurance_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o why_o so_o he_o bring_v we_o here_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v a_o word_n very_o worthy_a to_o be_v well_o weigh_v for_o he_o mean_v and_o show_v by_o the_o word_n faith_n in_o this_o place_n that_o self_n same_o thing_n which_o be_v describe_v and_o set_v out_o at_o large_a unto_o we_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n where_o it_o be_v say_v 11.1_o hebr._n 11.1_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o evidence_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o see_v and_o the_o substance_n or_o ground_n of_o thing_n that_o appear_v not_o and_o yet_o be_v hope_v for_o wherefore_o see_v that_o faith_n respect_v that_o which_o be_v invisible_a &_o can_v be_v see_v let_v we_o not_o dismay_v ourselves_o or_o wonder_n at_o this_o that_o we_o live_v in_o death_n and_o that_o we_o be_v in_o heaven_n &_o be_v citizen_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n although_o we_o shall_v dwell_v in_o this_o world_n &_o shall_v walk_v &_o creep_v upon_o the_o earth_n with_o bruit_n beast_n and_o this_o also_o be_v that_o which_o s._n paul_n speak_v well_o of_o 8.24_o rom._n 8.24_o in_o the_o eight_o of_o the_o roman_n for_o that_o which_o he_o speak_v there_o of_o hope_n may_v also_o be_v understand_v &_o that_o right_o of_o faith_n because_o they_o be_v thing_n that_o can_v be_v sunder_v for_o he_o say_v that_o we_o hope_v not_o for_o those_o thing_n which_o we_o see_v for_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o hope_v for_o that_o which_o i_o hold_v in_o my_o hand_n and_o have_v in_o possession_n because_o that_o i_o behold_v see_v and_o enjoy_v the_o same_o but_o i_o hope_v for_o that_o which_o be_v hold_v from_o i_o wherefore_o our_o salvation_n must_v needs_o be_v hide_v otherwise_o we_o shall_v have_v neither_o faith_n

such_o a_o life_n as_o be_v but_o a_o shadow_n &_o which_o pass_v into_o smoke_n yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o cease_v not_o to_o have_v a_o abide_n and_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v ground_v &_o

god_n word_n reveal_v matter_n beyond_o the_o reach_n of_o our_o reason_n of_o thing_n which_o appear_v not_o and_o to_o that_o certainty_n and_o sight_n that_o we_o have_v of_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v for_o we_o behold_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o glass_n that_o which_o be_v hyd_fw-we from_o our_o wit_n and_o can_v not_o be_v attein_v unto_o by_o our_o

be_v plunge_v as_o it_o be_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v wash_v from_o our_o spot_v and_o that_o we_o must_v fetch_v from_o thence_o our_o cleanse_n that_o we_o may_v be_v absolve_v and_o lose_v from_o the_o condemnation_n wherein_o we_o be_v and_o as_o he_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n give_v himself_o for_o

that_o in_o other_o place_n this_o love_n be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o father_n as_o god_n have_v not_o spare_v his_o son_n yet_o that_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o jesus_n christ_n love_v we_o also_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o eight_o chapter_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n mark_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v and_o bear_v away_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o our_o life_n

over_o long_o but_o i_o will_v go_v no_o further_o and_o because_o this_o place_n deserve_v to_o be_v better_o handle_v i_o will_v pray_v my_o brethren_n to_o speak_v thereof_o every_o one_o of_o they_o that_o which_o he_o shall_v know_v to_o be_v meet_a for_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n misery_n a_o effectual_a prayer_n for_o increase_v of_o knowledge_n and_o true_a feel_n of_o

not_o only_o confess_v that_o we_o be_v poor_a faulty_a person_n before_o he_o and_o that_o we_o bring_v nothing_o but_o condemnation_n with_o we_o but_o that_o we_o may_v also_o learn_v to_o detest_v

all_o righteousness_n &_o that_o there_o be_v in_o he_o such_o perfection_n as_o nothing_o can_v be_v say_v against_o it_o neither_o add_v thereto_o and_o that_o with_o all_o we_o may_v beat_v back_o &_o overthrow_n the_o false_a opinion_n of_o these_o together_o the_o holy_a ghost_n knit_v christ_n and_o his_o people_n together_o that_o slander_v the_o gospel_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o we_o

more_o profit_n and_o proceed_v in_o his_o fear_n untyll_o such_o time_n as_o we_o have_v well_o learned_a to_o
do_v in_o that_o behalf_n shall_v we_o not_o be_v past_a hope_n yes_o indeed_o and_o why_o so_o for_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v find_v any_o live_a creature_n that_o can_v be_v justify_v and_o what_o mean_v that_o word_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o any_o man_n can_v be_v find_v so_o just_a in_o god_n sight_n god_n none_o be_v of_o himself_o just_a before_o god_n that_o thereby_o he_o can_v be_v absolve_v and_o discharge_v before_o he_o so_o then_o when_o paul_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v not_o to_o this_o end_n that_o the_o discourse_n which_o he_o make_v shall_v be_v restrain_v to_o the_o ceremony_n only_o but_o he_o speak_v express_o as_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v of_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n because_o that_o the_o deceiver_n which_o at_o time_n mean_v to_o corrupt_v the_o purity_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v always_o allege_v &_o set_v out_o the_o ceremony_n now_o paul_n speak_v here_o as_o of_o the_o only_a remedy_n that_o serve_v to_o draw_v man_n from_o condemnation_n as_o also_o mention_n be_v make_v thereof_o in_o the_o fifteen_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n 15.10.11_o act._n 15.10.11_o and_o in_o that_o place_n it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o can_v be_v justify_v by_o all_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n but_o that_o we_o must_v come_v unto_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n there_o be_v wash_n sacrifice_n &_o to_o be_v short_a many_o mean_n to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o al._n he_o that_o have_v christ_n and_o his_o merit_n have_v al._n but_o what_o all_o that_o be_v but_o a_o figure_n and_o shadow_n to_o bring_v the_o people_n to_o jesus_n christ_n it_o follow_v then_o that_o when_o we_o have_v the_o satisfaction_n that_o be_v purchase_v unto_o we_o by_o jesus_n christ_n his_o death_n we_o have_v all_o neither_o need_n we_o the_o law_n to_o supply_v any_o thing_n whatsoever_o answer_v a_o shift_a and_o vain_a objection_n answer_v and_o though_o we_o have_v all_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o find_v out_o of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o shall_v have_v nothing_o at_o all_o and_o yet_o notwtstāding_v it_o shall_v seem_v that_o this_o argument_n or_o reason_n be_v not_o sufficient_a &_o strong_a enough_o for_o albeit_o that_o we_o be_v not_o full_o justify_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o a_o man_n may_v say_v that_o we_o be_v in_o part_n justify_v thereby_o which_o if_o it_o be_v true_a we_o be_v not_o altogether_o justify_v by_o faith_n for_o there_o be_v in_o it_o but_o one_o part_n of_o our_o righteousness_n behold_v how_o the_o papist_n be_v abuse_v and_o deceive_v for_o they_o will_v not_o say_v that_o we_o be_v able_a without_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o obtain_v salvation_n that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o glory_n and_o boast_v before_o god_n of_o ourselves_o as_o though_o we_o have_v in_o ourselves_o all_o that_o which_o be_v requisite_a to_o obtain_v everlasting_a life_n by_o subtlety_n papist_n shift_n and_o subtlety_n they_o will_v not_o speak_v so_o but_o they_o will_v say_v that_o we_o be_v sinner_n that_o there_o be_v infirmity_n and_o weakness_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v in_o ourselves_o manifold_a imperfection_n and_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v of_o necessity_n remedy_n and_o redress_v they_o and_o that_o in_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o say_v that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o portion_n of_o righteousness_n in_o we_o which_o righteousness_n they_o call_v partial_a or_o part_v because_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v part_v between_o god_n &_o man_n &_o moreover_o they_o say_v that_o the_o remission_n and_o forgevenesse_n which_o be_v bestow_v upon_o we_o when_o we_o be_v to_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n blasphemy_n a_o most_o horrible_a blasphemy_n be_v not_o free_a but_o that_o satisfaction_n on_o our_o behalf_n must_v be_v add_v thereto_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o have_v cause_v they_o to_o devise_v their_o mass_n trental_n diriges_fw-la pilgrimage_n and_o such_o like_a behold_v also_o the_o fundation_n whereupon_o they_o build_v their_o purgatory_n stand_n mass_n pilgrimage_n purgatory_n and_o such_o baggage_n upon_o what_o ground_n the_o stand_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v how_o the_o papist_n will_v indeed_o confess_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v necessary_a for_o they_o but_o they_o mean_v only_o in_o part_n and_o to_o supply_v that_o with_o they_o themselves_o want_v and_o yet_o they_o attribute_v to_o themselves_o thus_o much_o that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o purchase_v favour_n before_o god_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o merit_n and_o deserve_v at_o the_o jest_n some_o part_n and_o portion_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o that_o when_o they_o shall_v have_v offend_v that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o amend_v and_o repair_v the_o fault_n and_o that_o by_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o work_n as_o they_o call_v they_o of_o supererrogation_n now_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o this_o argument_n do_v fight_v against_o s._n paul_n mark_v his_o sentence_n we_o be_v not_o justify_v but_o by_o faith_n for_o also_o a_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n some_o may_v reply_v after_o this_o manner_n let_v we_o put_v the_o case_n that_o though_o we_o be_v not_o whole_o justify_v by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n reply_n a_o popish_a and_o peevish_a reply_n yet_o this_o mean_v not_o but_o that_o we_o may_v have_v some_o part_n and_o portion_n of_o righteousness_n therein_o it_o follow_v then_o that_o we_o be_v not_o altogether_o save_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o that_o this_o be_v a_o supply_n or_o a_o addition_n but_o sainte_n paul_n suppose_v that_o which_o be_v true_a that_o for_o asmuch_o as_o god_n in_o forbid_v to_o commit_v whoredom_n have_v also_o forbid_v to_o rob_v to_o lie_v and_o to_o blaspheme_v and_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o he_o that_o fail_v in_o one_o point_n be_v culpable_a and_o guilty_a of_o the_o whole_a as_o s._n james_n say_v in_o the_o second_o chapter_n 2.10_o james._n 2.10_o and_o the_o better_a to_o perceive_v and_o understand_v this_o we_o must_v come_v to_o the_o promise_n and_o to_o the_o threat_n of_o the_o law_n concern_v the_o promise_n promise_v promise_v it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o that_o shall_v do_v some_o part_n of_o these_o thing_n shall_v live_v in_o they_o 10.5_o levit._fw-la 18.5_o rom_n 10.5_o but_o it_o be_v

that_o fulfil_v the_o same_o true_o there_o have_v not_o be_v yet_o any_o such_o find_v it_o follow_v then_o that_o this_o promise_n be_v indeed_o of_o no_o force_n see_v that_o man_n fail_v in_o

now_o we_o may_v in_o one_o word_n see_v that_o which_o god_n pronounce_v 3.10_o deu._n 27.26_o galat._n 3.10_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o shall_v not_o perform_v all_o these_o thing_n when_o he_o say_v

behold_v how_o saint_n paul_n argument_n be_v forcible_a and_o strong_a that_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o partial_a righteousness_n as_o the_o papist_n imagine_n and_o affirm_v because_o god_n

before_o he_o mark_v then_o how_o we_o must_v come_v to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o moreover_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v take_v all_o that_o he_o have_v or_o be_v
