workmanship_n create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n unto_o good_a work_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o they_o and_o again_o in_o another_o place_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o 12._o tit._n 2._o 12._o bring_v salvation_n unto_o all_o man_n have_v appear_v teach_v we_o that_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n we_o shall_v live_v sober_o and_o just_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n thou_o see_v how_o diligent_o good_a work_n be_v commend_v in_o the_o scripture_n as_o those_o that_o be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n through_o christ_n by_o who_o holiness_n all_o their_o filthiness_n and_o uncleanness_n be_v cover_v theoph._n but_o what_o use_n be_v there_o of_o they_o mat._n work_n a_o three_o fold_v use_n of_o good_a work_n the_o use_n be_v threefold_n and_o those_o indeed_o most_o profitable_a the_o first_o which_o be_v also_o the_o chief_a respect_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n that_o aught_o to_o be_v dear_a unto_o we_o them_z our_o own_o salvation_n but_o by_o they_o it_o be_v especial_o advance_v as_o it_o appear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n let_v your_o light_n so_o shine_v before_o man_n that_o they_o may_v see_v your_o good_a 16._o mat._n 5._o 16._o work_n and_o glorify_v your_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n for_o this_o cause_n paul_n warn_v the_o philippian_n to_o be_v full_a of_o the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o christ_n jesus_n add_v 11._o phil._n 1._o 11._o to_o the_o glory_n and_o praise_n of_o god_n the_o second_o use_n respect_v our_o neighbour_n for_o by_o the_o uprightness_n and_o integrity_n of_o our_o life_n he_o be_v provoke_v to_o the_o same_o earnest_a desire_n and_o exercise_v of_o godliness_n i_o pass_v over_o the_o good_a turn_n which_o he_o have_v by_o our_o charity_n and_o good_a work_n the_o three_o use_n stand_v in_o this_o that_o by_o they_o our_o conscience_n be_v quiet_v for_o they_o be_v testimony_n and_o witness_n of_o our_o faith_n &_o therefore_o of_o our_o salvation_n theoph._n but_o how_o can_v it_o be_v that_o good_a work_n shall_v be_v witness_n of_o our_o faith_n mat._n the_o cause_n have_v already_o be_v show_v of_o we_o before_o namely_o for_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v never_o work_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n without_o repentance_n from_o whence_o good_a work_n do_v flow_v which_o therefore_o be_v visible_a or_o see_v testimony_n of_o our_o invisible_a or_o unseen_a faith_n even_o as_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o tree_n be_v judge_v by_o the_o good_a fruit_n and_o the_o inward_a health_n or_o soundness_n of_o a_o man_n body_n by_o the_o outward_a disposition_n of_o all_o the_o part_n theoph._n therefore_o unless_o i_o be_v deceive_v this_o thou_o say_v that_o faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n matth._n i_o say_v so_o even_o as_o fire_n can_v be_v without_o heat_n and_o the_o sun_n without_o light_n and_o very_o faith_n of_o it_o own_o work_n faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n nature_n bring_v forth_o good_a work_n for_o how_o can_v it_o be_v that_o our_o heart_n shall_v be_v reform_v by_o faith_n so_o as_o we_o do_v embrace_v the_o love_n wherewith_o god_n love_v we_o in_o christ_n but_o that_o they_o be_v also_o strike_v with_o love_n towards_o he_o again_o by_o mean_n whereof_o they_o both_o earnest_o desire_v to_o obey_v he_o and_o do_v labour_n to_o avoid_v rebellion_n against_o his_o majesty_n i_o do_v add_v moreover_o that_o faith_n can_v no_o more_o stand_v together_o with_o a_o evil_a conscience_n than_o water_n with_o fire_n for_o it_o can_v be_v that_o so_o long_o as_o sin_n reign_v in_o we_o and_o we_o willing_o offend_v god_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v assure_v of_o his_o love_n so_o as_o we_o may_v put_v our_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o and_o repose_v our_o hope_n in_o his_o favour_n and_o goodness_n notwithstanding_o that_o infinite_a merit_n of_o christ_n death_n be_v know_v and_o perceive_v of_o us._n theoph._n as_o far_o as_o i_o see_v faith_n bring_v forth_o good_a work_n by_o the_o which_o it_o be_v afterward_o preserve_v in_o our_o heart_n m._n preserve_v i'faith_o the_o mother_n of_o good_a work_n of_o which_o it_o be_v after_o preserve_v yea_o very_o even_o as_o fire_n cause_v ash_n wherewith_o it_o be_v afterward_o cherish_v feed_v and_o maintain_v but_o by_o these_o thing_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o it_o be_v so_o far_o off_o that_o faith_n which_o notwithstanding_o some_o say_v shall_v destroy_v good_a work_n that_o rather_o by_o it_o they_o be_v build_v up_o and_o fortify_v theoph._n see_v then_o faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n it_o follow_v that_o all_o they_o which_o boast_v of_o it_o &_o do_v not_o good_a work_n be_v liar_n and_o deceive_v themselves_o matth._n it_o follow_v and_o that_o be_v the_o disputation_n of_o james_n the_o apostle_n against_o the_o libertine_n who_o he_o speak_v unto_o in_o these_o word_n show_v i_o thy_o faith_n 18._o jam._n 2._o 18._o without_o thy_o work_n and_o i_o will_v show_v thou_o my_o faith_n by_o my_o work_n whereby_o he_o show_v that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v certain_a of_o his_o faith_n which_o be_v invisible_a but_o he_o have_v visible_a testimony_n of_o it_o namely_o good_a work_n whereupon_o it_o be_v that_o the_o same_o apostle_n in_o the_o end_n of_o that_o chapter_n conclude_v thus_o as_o the_o body_n without_o the_o 26._o vers_fw-la 26._o spirit_n be_v dead_a even_o so_o that_o faith_n that_o be_v without_o good_a work_n be_v dead_a that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o true_a but_o a_o shadow_n and_o a_o vain_a empty_a likeness_n of_o it_o theoph._n therefore_o we_o be_v neither_o justify_v nor_o save_v without_o good_a work_n although_o neither_o of_o they_o nor_o by_o they_o mat._n i_o grant_v it_o for_o although_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v not_o the_o wage_n of_o servant_n but_o the_o inheritance_n of_o child_n yet_o no_o man_n be_v reckon_v among_o the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o be_v not_o lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o paul_n speak_v 14._o rom._n 8._o 14._o and_o therefore_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n such_o as_o be_v these_o love_n joy_n peace_n long_o suffer_v gentleness_n 23._o gal._n 5._o 22._o 23._o goodness_n faith_n meekness_n temperance_n and_o such_o like_a therefore_o the_o same_o apostle_n in_o another_o place_n give_v warning_n be_v not_o deceive_v neither_o 9_o 1._o cor._n 6._o 9_o fornicator_n nor_o idolater_n nor_o adulterer_n nor_o wantoness_n nor_o thief_n nor_o covetous_a nor_o drunkard_n nor_o railer_n nor_o extortioner_n shall_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n the_o same_o thing_n also_o do_v christ_n himself_o confirm_v when_o he_o say_v not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v to_o 21._o mat._n 7._o 21._o i_o lord_n lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o do_v my_o father_n will_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n 20._o mat._n 5._o 20._o and_o again_o in_o another_o place_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o except_o your_o righteousness_n exceed_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisy_n you_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n theoph._n now_o do_v i_o consent_v unto_o thou_o &_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o good_a work_n be_v not_o unprofitable_a although_o we_o be_v neither_o justify_v nor_o save_v by_o they_o yea_o rather_o that_o they_o be_v of_o special_a use_n and_o therefore_o that_o the_o faithful_a with_o all_o their_o heart_n shall_v give_v themselves_o to_o they_o for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o serve_v 1_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n 2_o the_o edification_n of_o our_o neighbour_n 3_o and_o to_o the_o confirmation_n of_o our_o faith_n &_o salvation_n mat._n add_v hereunto_o that_o god_n to_o who_o they_o be_v acceptable_a through_o christ_n reward_v they_o with_o sundry_a blessing_n both_o spiritual_a &_o temporal_a according_a to_o the_o promise_n almost_o without_o number_n contain_v in_o his_o word_n moreover_o hither_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v the_o word_n of_o reward_n which_o be_v use_v in_o many_o place_n in_o the_o scripture_n as_o when_o john_n exhort_v the_o faithful_a to_o perseverance_n he_o say_v 8._o 2._o joh._n 8._o look_v unto_o yourselves_o that_o we_o lose_v not_o the_o thing_n we_o have_v wrought_v but_o that_o you_o may_v have_v a_o full_a reward_n christ_n also_o speak_v of_o those_o which_o suffer_v persecution_n for_o righteousness_n sake_n say_v 12._o mat._n 5._o 12._o great_a be_v your_o reward_n in_o heaven_n in_o another_o place_n also_o 42._o mat._n 10._o 42._o whosoever_o shall_v give_v a_o cup_n of_o cold_a
