favour_n in_o work_n christ_n i_o will_v now_o show_v why_o justification_n be_v impute_v to_o faith_n and_o not_o to_o work_n and_o so_o make_v a_o end_n touch_v this_o question_n there_o appear_v two_o just_a cause_n thereof_o first_o for_o that_o faith_n be_v the_o only_a mean_a between_o man_n and_o the_o promise_n and_o that_o which_o apprehend_v righteousness_n and_o worl_z 〈…〉_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o effect_n or_o fruit_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o same_o faith_n therefore_o justification_n be_v to_o be_v impute_v to_o that_o which_o apprehend_v the_o righteousness_n and_o not_o to_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o second_o and_o principal_o that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o end_n of_o all_o god_n work_n be_v to_o purchase_v to_o himself_o as_o of_o right_n be_v due_a all_o praise_n honour_n and_o glory_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o his_o promise_n as_o have_v often_o be_v say_v as_o the_o great_a prerogative_n he_o challenge_v from_o his_o creature_n therefore_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n that_o no_o part_n of_o man_n justification_n shall_v be_v impute_v to_o work_n as_o unto_o any_o part_n of_o the_o cause_n thereof_o for_o that_o ambitious_a man_n shall_v have_v no_o colour_n of_o title_n to_o any_o proportional_a part_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o work_n that_o no_o flesh_n may_v boast_v in_o his_o presence_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n which_o paul_n himself_o show_v to_o the_o ephesian_n concern_v the_o same_o for_o by_o grace_n say_v he_o you_o be_v save_v through_o faith_n and_o not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o 2._o not_o of_o work_n lest_o any_o man_n shall_v boast_v he_o that_o all_o the_o glory_n may_v redound_v to_o god_n alone_o who_o as_o he_o save_v we_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n so_o by_o himself_o only_o have_v he_o begin_v continue_v and_o end_v the_o whole_a work_n concern_v our_o salvation_n to_o who_o through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o only_a and_o

manifest_a that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o only_a end_n of_o good_a work_n be_v to_o show_v man_n obedience_n to_o god_n that_o god_n thereby_o may_v be_v glorify_v and_o to_o witness_v and_o declare_v the_o possession_n of_o that_o true_a faith_n whereby_o only_a righteousness_n be_v proper_a to_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n that_o by_o they_o man_n may_v yield_v a_o full_a testimony_n of_o his_o call_n and_o election_n through_o christ_n into_o the_o favour_n or_o love_n of_o god_n forasmuch_o i_o say_v as_o this_o be_v the_o only_a end_n of_o good_a work_n therefore_o he_o that_o either_o teach_v or_o do_v any_o work_n have_v appearance_n of_o holiness_n to_o any_o other_o end_n them_z this_o namely_o in_o hope_n of_o any_o reward_n reward_n for_o the_o worthiness_n thereof_o that_o work_n what_o show_v soever_o it_o have_v of_o godliness_n be_v wicked_a and_o detestable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n in_o that_o it_o offer_v a_o filthy_a price_n for_o that_o by_o the_o free_a
