not_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v that_o faith_n be_v form_v with_o charity_n because_o that_o kind_a of_o speech_n be_v not_o use_v by_o saint_n paul_n but_o only_o that_o faith_n work_v by_o charity_n other_o understand_v that_o justify_v faith_n be_v faith_n in_o general_a not_o say_v it_o be_v either_o lively_a or_o dead_a because_o they_o do_v both_o justify_v after_o diverse_a manner_n either_o complete_o as_o the_o lively_a or_o as_o a_o beginning_n or_o foundation_n as_o the_o historical_a faith_n and_o of_o this_o saint_n paul_n speak_v when_o he_o attribute_v justice_n unto_o it_o no_o otherwise_o then_o as_o philosophy_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o alphabet_n that_o be_v as_o in_o a_o basis_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v nothing_o the_o principal_a remain_v that_o be_v to_o set_v the_o statue_n upon_o it_o this_o second_o opinion_n be_v joint_o maintain_v by_o the_o dominican_n and_o franciscan_n the_o other_o by_o marinarus_n and_o his_o adherent_n but_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o the_o difficulty_n be_v not_o touch_v that_o be_v whether_o a_o man_n be_v just_a and_o then_o do_v just_o or_o by_o do_v just_o become_v just_a they_o all_o agree_v in_o one_o opinion_n that_o to_o say_v only_a faith_n do_v justify_v be_v a_o proposition_n of_o many_o fence_n and_o all_o absurd_a for_o god_n and_o the_o sacrament_n do_v justify_v as_o cause_n in_o their_o several_a kind_n so_o that_o the_o proposition_n have_v that_o and_o many_o other_o exception_n the_o preparation_n also_o of_o the_o soul_n to_o receive_v grace_n be_v a_o cause_n in_o its_o kind_n so_o that_o faith_n can_v exclude_v that_o sort_n of_o work_n but_o the_o article_n concern_v work_n that_o go_v before_o grace_n all_o which_o luther_n condemn_v for_o sin_n the_o divine_n censure_v for_o heretical_a rather_o by_o way_n of_o invective_n then_o otherwise_o condemn_v likewise_o of_o heresy_n the_o opinion_n take_v in_o general_a that_o humane_a work_n without_o faith_n be_v sin_n think_v it_o a_o clear_a case_n that_o many_o action_n of_o man_n be_v indifferent_a neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a and_o that_o other_o there_o be_v which_o though_o they_o be_v not_o acceptable_a to_o god_n yet_o be_v moral_o good_a as_o the_o honest_a action_n of_o infidel_n and_o christian_n which_o be_v sinner_n which_o to_o call_v honest_a and_o sin_n impli_v a_o contradiction_n and_o the_o rather_o because_o in_o this_o rank_n be_v include_v the_o heroical_a action_n so_o much_o commend_v by_o antiquity_n but_o catarinus_n maintain_v that_o man_n without_o the_o special_a help_n of_o god_n can_v do_v no_o work_n which_o may_v true_o be_v good_a though_o moral_o but_o sin_v work_n catarinus_n his_o opinion_n concern_v the_o value_n of_o work_n still_o therefore_o the_o work_n of_o the_o infidel_n who_o be_v not_o excite_v by_o god_n to_o believe_v and_o of_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v sinner_n before_o god_n stir_v they_o up_o to_o conversion_n though_o they_o seem_v honest_a to_o man_n even_o heroical_a yet_o be_v true_o sin_n and_o he_o that_o commend_v they_o do_v consider_v they_o in_o general_a and_o according_a to_o external_a appearance_n but_o he_o that_o shall_v examine_v the_o circumstance_n of_o every_o one_o shall_v find_v they_o be_v perverse_a and_o that_o for_o this_o luther_n be_v not_o to_o be_v condemn_v notwithstanding_o he_o say_v that_o the_o article_n ought_v to_o be_v censure_v as_o they_o speak_v of_o work_n that_o follow_v prevent_v grace_n which_o be_v a_o preparation_n to_o justification_n as_o a_o abomination_n of_o sin_n fear_v of_o hell_n and_o other_o terror_n of_o conscience_n for_o confirmation_n of_o his_o opinion_n he_o bring_v the_o doctrine_n of_o saint_n thomas_n that_o to_o do_v a_o good_a work_n the_o concurrence_n of_o all_o circumstance_n be_v necessary_a but_o the_o want_n of_o one_o only_o be_v sufficient_a for_o a_o ill_a so_o that_o howsoever_o among_o the_o work_n consider_v in_o general_a some_o be_v indifferent_a yet_o in_o the_o singular_a there_o be_v no_o medium_n between_o have_v all_o the_o circumstance_n and_o want_v some_o therefore_o every_o particular_a action_n be_v good_a or_o evil_n neither_o be_v there_o to_o be_v find_v any_o one_o indifferent_a and_o because_o among_o the_o circumstance_n the_o end_n be_v one_o all_o work_v refer_v to_o a_o bad_a end_n be_v infect_v so_o that_o the_o infidel_n refer_v all_o to_o a_o bad_a end_n their_o action_n be_v sin_n though_o they_o seem_v heroical_a to_o he_o that_o know_v not_o their_o intention_n neither_o do_v it_o make_v any_o difference_n whether_o the_o relation_n to_o a_o bad_a end_n be_v actual_a or_o habitual_a because_o the_o just_a do_v merit_n though_o he_o refer_v not_o the_o work_n actual_o to_o god_n but_o habitual_o only_a he_o say_v further_o allege_v saint_n austin_n that_o it_o be_v sin_n not_o only_o to_o refer_v the_o action_n to_o a_o bad_a end_n but_o also_o not_o to_o refer_v it_o to_o a_o good_a and_o because_o he_o defend_v that_o without_o the_o special_a prevent_a assistance_n of_o god_n a_o man_n can_v refer_v any_o thing_n to_o god_n he_o conclude_v that_o no_o good_a moral_a work_n can_v be_v before_o for_o this_o he_o allege_v many_o place_n of_o saint_n austin_n to_o show_v that_o he_o be_v of_o this_o opinion_n he_o allege_v also_o place_n of_o saint_n ambrose_n saint_n prosper_n s._n anselmus_n and_o of_o other_o father_n he_o produce_v gregory_n of_o arimini_fw-la the_o cardinal_n of_o rochester_n who_o in_o his_o book_n against_o luther_n be_v clear_o of_o the_o same_o opinion_n say_v it_o be_v better_a to_o follow_v the_o father_n than_o the_o schoolman_n who_o be_v divide_v and_o rather_o to_o take_v the_o scripture_n for_o a_o ground_n from_o whence_o true_a theology_n be_v take_v than_o the_o subtlety_n of_o philosophy_n which_o the_o school_n have_v use_v that_o himself_o also_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n but_o have_v study_v the_o scripture_n and_o father_n have_v find_v the_o truth_n he_o allege_v the_o passage_n of_o the_o gospel_n a_o bad_a tree_n can_v bear_v good_a fruit_n with_o the_o amplification_n which_o our_o saviour_n add_v say_v either_o make_v the_o tree_n good_a and_o the_o fruit_n good_a or_o the_o tree_n evil_a and_o the_o fruit_n evil_a he_o use_v also_o other_o argument_n and_o especial_o the_o

proclaim_v it_o heretical_a heretical_a soto_n proclaym_v the_o opinion_n of_o catarinus_n to_o be_v heretical_a for_o infer_v that_o man_n have_v not_o liberty_n to_o do_v well_o nor_o can_v obtain_v his_o natural_a end_n which_o be_v to_o deny_v freewill_n with_o the_o lutheran_n he_o maintain_v a_o man_n may_v by_o that_o strength_n of_o nature_n observe_v every_o precept_n of_o the_o law_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o work_n though_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o end_n which_o be_v enough_o to_o avoid_v sin_n he_o say_v there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o humane_a action_n one_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v sin_n another_o the_o observation_n thereof_o have_v charity_n for_o the_o end_n which_o be_v meritorious_a and_o acceptable_a to_o god_n the_o three_o mix_v when_o the_o law_n be_v obey_v for_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o precept_n which_o work_n be_v moral_o good_a and_o perfect_a in_o its_o kind_n because_o it_o accomplish_v the_o

open_a of_o necessity_n this_o doctrine_n do_v not_o satisfy_v some_o of_o the_o father_n for_o though_o it_o clear_o show_v that_o all_o work_n be_v not_o sin_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o whole_o salve_v
