Not euery one that sayth Lord Lord shal enter into the Kingdome of Heauen but he that doth the will of my Father which is in Heauen And his will is that yée beléeue his word Obey your Prince and doe thereafter that is that we embrace the works of Holinesse afore recited and forsake and renounce the déedes of Wickednesse laste repeated The holy Ghoste so instructeth by all Christians to bée receiued Hence Paule teacheth That not the Hearers of the Lawe but the Doers they are iustified whych liue according to the Spirite not according to the Flesh By Marlorat excellently opened affirming that our Iustification resteth vpō Faith without the workes of the depraued Law of Nature Moses Law or any other whatsoeuer withoute a constant Faith in Iesus Christ but not without the déedes and fruites commanded by the Law of the Gospell the Law of the Spirit and Lawe of Grace For as Bullinger ●●uinely deliuereth the Moral Law is continuall and in some part the Iudiciall but not at all the Ceremoniall of Moses And certaine so farre as the Lawe is the rule how to liue well and happily so far as it is the bridle to stay vs in Gods feare so farre as it is a pricke to wake the dulnesse of our flesh so farre as it is giuen to instruct correct and rebuke vs men so farre I say with him that it remayneth still This Saincte Iames most earnestly affirmeth saying that such as know how to do well and do it not are still bound in their sinne as if he should say the Lawe hath rule still ouer such for they be not as yet regenerate bycause they walke stil according to the fleshe and not according to the Spirite The very same Saincte Peter maketh more playne for the eyghte Soules that were saued by water signifieth Baptisme that saueth vs and not the cutting away the foreskinne Circumsition but the forsaking of euill a good conscience cōsenting vnto Gods will a liuely and vndoubted faith budding forth all good blossoms and spirituall fruites for we acknowledge as Bullinger affirmeth according to Sainct Paule that we are created vnto good workes But so that héereby we may not swell with pride in our selues forgetting the merites of Christ whē we reade in the holy Scriptures that we are iustified by ours owne workes that oure owne workes are called righteous that vnto our works is giuen a reward of euerlasting life nor yet that we growe to presumptuous secure and licentious when we find that we are iustified only by Faith that we are fréely ransomed by the frée bountie of our redéemer that hée once for all pacified the wrath of his father and broughte vs againe to be his déerely beloued Children But that as we be fréelie redéemed through his only goodnesse without anye merite of ours so we without any compulsion must sanctifie oure soules and bodies walking alwayes in the light of godly conuersatiō as it is of late very well expressed by Master Rogers but most effectually of all of olde by the holy Apostles themselues By Peter who willeth that we
