i_o presume_v you_o perceive_v that_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o two_o sort_n of_o judaise_v christian_n the_o better_a and_o the_o worse_o lie_v much_o in_o this_o one_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o one_o do_v and_o the_o other_o do_v not_o hold_v internal_a righteousness_n necessary_a to_o justification_n for_o except_v in_o this_o they_o seem_v both_o to_o have_v be_v of_o one_o

as_o admit_v it_o to_o take_v place_n or_o to_o come_v into_o be_v until_o we_o be_v first_o justify_v nor_o so_o much_o as_o admit_v that_o faith_n in_o itself_o be_v impute_v for_o righteousness_n but_o only_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o apprehend_v by_o faith_n i_o say_v what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o this_o can_v we_o possible_o think_v the_o same_o opinion_n to_o be_v a_o grievous_a error_n in_o the_o judaise_v christian_n and_o yet_o to_o be_v orthodox_n and_o innocent_a in_o other_o doubtless_o where_o this_o opinion_n be_v as_o practical_o hold_v as_o it_o be_v by_o the_o corrupt_a sort_n of_o the_o judaise_v christian_n it_o be_v as_o criminal_a and_o dangerous_a as_o it_o be_v in_o they_o but_o so_o it_o be_v not_o i_o confess_v where_o it_o be_v hold_v only_o speculative_o as_o i_o suppose_v it_o to_o be_v by_o all_o those_o of_o that_o persuasion_n that_o be_v regenerate_v and_o true_o good_a for_o they_o hold_v regeneration_n and_o the_o inherent_a grace_n of_o sanctification_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n though_o not_o to_o justification_n and_o in_o hold_v this_o they_o practical_o hold_v it_o necessary_a to_o justification_n even_o then_o while_o in_o speculation_n and_o opinion_n they_o hold_v no_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o it_o in_o order_n thereto_o for_o the_o practise_n upon_o this_o better_a principle_n as_o believe_v regeneration_n and_o sanctification_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o become_v regenerate_v sanctify_a and_o internal_o righteous_a thereupon_o they_o come_v thereby_o to_o have_v this_o evangelical_n righteousness_n impute_v to_o they_o for_o such_o as_o it_o be_v that_o be_v for_o righteousness_n for_o so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o eye_n and_o according_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o evangelical_n law_n which_o imputation_n be_v their_o justification_n this_o god_n do_v although_o they_o do_v not_o know_v and_o believe_v all_o this_o but_o think_v they_o be_v justify_v before_o they_o be_v sanctify_v which_o by_o interpretation_n be_v to_o think_v they_o be_v account_v righteous_a before_o they_o be_v so_o that_o they_o be_v account_v righteous_a in_o the_o righteousness_n of_o another_o before_o they_o be_v at_o all_o righteous_a in_o themselves_o but_o god_n proceed_v in_o justify_v man_n not_o according_a to_o by-opinion_n in_o man_n while_o consistent_a with_o

ease_v those_o of_o the_o opinion_n i_o oppose_v as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v for_o by_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v counterbalanced_n by_o better_a principle_n in_o many_o it_o be_v not_o so_o

there_o be_v in_o they_o no_o such_o thing_n to_o counterbalance_n it_o in_o its_o operation_n as_o a_o persuasion_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o internal_a righteousness_n unto_o salvation_n no_o more_o than_o unto_o justification_n as_o there_o be_v in_o these_o and_o in_o this_o very_a respect_n and_o their_o opinion_n of_o merit_n doubtless_o it_o be_v that_o the_o promoter_n of_o this_o

of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v plain_a because_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n be_v limit_v and_o restrain_v in_o the_o last_o issue_n and_o event_n unto_o man_n become_v regenerate_v and_o internal_o righteous_a as_o the_o condition_n without_o which_o they_o shall_v neither_o be_v justify_v pardon_v nor_o save_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n or_o any_o thing_n he_o have_v do_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o sinner_n and_o therefore_o those_o false_a teacher_n that_o teach_v justification_n and_o salvation_n attainable_a by_o
