of_o the_o law_n rom._n 9_o 31_o 32._o that_o concern_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v unblameable_a phil._n 3._o 6._o whereupon_o the_o pharisee_fw-mi say_v i_o thank_v thou_o o_o

be_o so_o zealous_a in_o thy_o worship_n that_o i_o fast_o twice_o in_o the_o week_n and_o so_o careful_a to_o maintain_v thy_o service_n and_o relief_n of_o the_o poor_a that_o i_o give_v tithe_n of_o all_o that_o i_o possess_v luk._n 18._o 11_o 12._o and_o by_o this_o opinion_n of_o righteousness_n and_o well-pleasing_a of_o god_n paul_n be_v teach_v according_a to_o the_o perfect_a manner_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o father_n be_v so_o zealous_a towards_o god_n as_o they_o be_v all_o at_o that_o time_n that_o hepersecute_v the_o christian_n unto_o death_n bind_v and_o deliver_v into_o

act_n 13._o 15._o thus_o we_o see_v this_o first_o main_a point_n prove_v how_o far_o the_o dead_a faith_n go_v in_o humiliation_n repentance_n and_o zealous_a keep_n of_o the_o law_n wherein_o they_o

save_a faith_n 2._o the_o second_o main_a point_n be_v that_o now_o we_o consider_v the_o plain_a and_o evident_a mark_n whereby_o this_o dead_a faith_n may_v be_v discern_v and_o whereby_o it_o

which_v say_v they_o see_v may_v be_v make_v blind_a john_n 9_o 39_o 40_o 41._o and_o yet_o by_o this_o blindness_n they_o calumniate_a the_o faith_n word_n and_o work_n of_o the_o true_a believer_n be_v ever_o ready_o press_v to_o call_v light_a darkness_n and_o darkness_n light_n good_a evil_n and_o evil_a good_a &_o to_o put_v bitter_a for_o sweet_a and_o sweet_a for_o bitter_a esa_n 5._o 20._o and_o thus_o much_o of_o their_o great_a knowledge_n that_o be_v in_o the_o dead_a faith_n be_v mere_a blindness_n as_o we_o see_v 2._o second_o concern_v their_o faith_n although_o they_o seem_v to_o have_v a_o strong_a faith_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o preach_v eloquent_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n yet_o they_o speak_v preposterous_o ignorant_o and_o confuse_o of_o they_o say_v sibbole_v but_o can_v say_v shibboleth_n and_o because_o when_o they_o speak_v of_o they_o they_o understand_v not_o what_o they_o speak_v all_o thing_n in_o the_o plain_a gospel_n be_v unto_o they_o in_o parable_n as_o christ_n say_v mark_v 4._o 11_o 12._o therefore_o they_o will_v not_o only_o in_o divers_a sermon_n but_o often_o time_n in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o sermon_n or_o conference_n if_o not_o in_o plain_a word_n yet_o in_o plain_a sense_n speak_v flat_a contrary_n in_o and_o to_o the_o work_n of_o christ_n and_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o so_o say_v and_o unsay_v say_v one_o way_n and_o unsay_n and_o deny_v the_o same_o thing_n again_o another_o way_n and_o thus_o do_v see_v many_o thing_n as_o the_o prophet_n esay_n 42._o 20._o say_v but_o keep_v not_o neither_o in_o
original_a corruption_n dwell_v in_o we_o like_o sarahs_n unfruitful_a womb_n neither_o will_v we_o doubt_v of_o this_o justify_n promise_n by_o unbelief_n but_o be_v strengthen_v in_o faith_n that_o
