A85329	Londons gate to the Lords Table. Where the eldership doth sit doing their office aright, in discovering and shutting out the ignorant, prophane, and meere civill honest man : in suspending the suspected formall, legall, and antinomisticall professor, and in drawing in the weakest humble beleeving soule. In a dialogue betweene a minister of the Gospell. Alexander an ignorant prophane man. Simon a proud professor. And Matthias an humble penitent. Imprimatur Edmund Calamy.

who_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n say_v bless_a be_v they_o who_o iniquity_n be_v forgive_v and_o who_o sin_n be_v cover_v bless_v be_v the_o man_n unto_o who_o the_o lord_n will_v

by_o god_n impute_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n unto_o a_o man_n or_o not_o impute_v his_o sin_n unto_o he_o min._n why_o the_o meaning_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o this_o to_o wit_n that_o god_n gracious_o accept_v for_o a_o man_n and_o in_o his_o behalf_n the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n both_o active_a that_o be_v his_o obedience_n which_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o

then_o be_v it_o say_v in_o scripture_n that_o faith_n be_v impute_v to_o a_o man_n for_o his_o righteousness_n and_o that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v thereby_o min._n it_o be_v because_o faith_n be_v the_o instrument_n and_o as_o it_o be_v the_o hand_n whereby_o christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n be_v receive_v so_o that_o wheresoever_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n that_o faith_n be_v impute_v to_o a_o man_n for_o his_o righteousness_n or_o that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v it_o relative_o that_o be_v as_o it_o have_v relation_n to_o christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n which_o it_o receive_v and_o appli_v for_o indeed_o faith_n consider_v in_o itself_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v impute_v neither_o as_o it_o be_v a_o habit_n nor_o as_o it_o be_v a_o act_n because_o that_o which_o be_v within_o a_o man_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v impute_v justification_n piscator_fw-la on_o justification_n to_o a_o man_n but_o that_o which_o be_v

indeed_o for_o without_o man_n application_n god_n imputation_n be_v not_o at_o all_o sim._n why_o then_o sir_n it_o shall_v seem_v that_o a_o man_n do_v help_v to_o justify_v himself_o min._n o_o no_o not_o so_o for_o man_n application_n be_v also_o catechis_n vrsinus_n catechis_n from_o god_n for_o god_n first_o impute_v unto_o a_o man_n christ_n satisfaction_n and_o then_o he_o engender_v

declare_v wherein_o that_o first_o act_n of_o god_n consist_v in_o make_v a_o man_n just_a and_o righteous_a i_o pray_v you_o also_o show_v wherein_o the_o second_o act_n of_o god_n consist_v in_o pronounce_v he_o just_a and_o righteous_a min._n this_o act_n of_o god_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o judicial_a acquit_v whereby_o the_o lord_n as_o a_o judge_n pronounce_v just_a and_o innocent_a he_o that_o be_v accuse_v and_o bring_v to_o the_o judgement_n seat_n and_o this_o be_v do_v when_o that_o satan_n accuse_v and_o the_o law_n condemn_v a_o believer_n unto_o who_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o impute_v sin_n but_o do_v absolve_v and_o free_v he_o both_o from_o the_o fault_n and_o punishment_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n mean_v when_o he_o faith_n rom._n 8._o 33._o it_o be_v god_n that_o justifi_v who_o be_v he_o that_o condemn_v where_o you_o see_v that_o justification_n be_v manifest_o oppose_v to_o condemnation_n sim._n well_o sir_n i_o do_v now_o plain_o perceive_v that_o a_o man_n be_v neither_o make_v just_a by_o nor_o pronounce_v just_a for_o his_o own_o inherent_a righteousness_n but_o only_o by_o and_o for_o christ_n righteousness_n impute_v but_o sir_n do_v not_o the_o lord_n wheresoever_o he_o impute_v righteousness_n to_o a_o man_n whereby_o he_o be_v justify_v infuse_v righteousness_n also_o into_o he_o whereby_o he_o be_v sanctify_v min._n yea_o indeed_o for_o christ_n by_o his_o obedience_n have_v not_o only_o obtain_v imputation_n of_o righteousness_n for_o his_o elect_a whereby_o they_o be_v justify_v but_o also_o that_o by_o his_o spirit_n together_o with_o faith_n there_o shall_v be_v righteousness_n infuse_v into_o they_o whereby_o they_o be_v sanctify_v and_o therefore_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o sanctification_n be_v a_o necessary_a and_o unseparable_a consequent_a of_o justification_n so_o that_o although_o inherent_a righteousness_n be_v no_o part_n of_o that_o righteousness_n wherewith_o a_o man_n be_v formal_o justify_v yet_o that_o righteousness_n wherewith_o a_o man_n be_v formal_o justify_v be_v not_o impute_v and_o apply_v to_o any_o man_n that_o be_v grow_v in_o year_n of_o discretion_n without_o the_o

according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o grace_n receive_v last_o to_o name_v no_o more_o the_o righteousness_n whereby_o a_o believer_n be_v justify_v be_v always_o impute_v unto_o he_o and_o

that_o he_o that_o come_v short_a of_o i_o and_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o i_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o he_o that_o go_v beyond_o i_o and_o do_v more_o than_o i_o

never_o come_v there_o min._n and_o what_o follow_v then_o sim._n why_o then_o i_o change_v my_o mind_n yea_o and_o my_o course_n of_o life_n also_o for_o whereas_o before_o i_o think_v such_o man_n as_o be_v more_o zealous_a and_o forward_a in_o religion_n than_o i_o be_v they_o go_v too_o far_o and_o make_v more_o ado_n than_o be_v needful_a and_o be_v more_o nice_a than_o wise_a why_o now_o i_o see_v i_o be_v deceive_v for_o they_o be_v the_o only_a man_n that_o shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o thereupon_o i_o fall_v to_o hear_v of_o sermon_n not_o only_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o also_o on_o the_o week_n day_n and_o fall_v to_o write_v after_o the_o minister_n and_o to_o make_v repartition_n of_o the_o sermon_n when_o i_o come_v home_o and_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n i_o do_v ordinary_o ask_v my_o child_n and_o servant_n what_o they_o do_v remember_v and_o whereas_o before_o i_o use_v to_o pray_v in_o my_o family_n only_o every_o sabbath_n
