from_o it_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o busy_v himself_o more_o or_o less_o touch_v the_o sincerity_n and_o purity_n of_o thought_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v not_o only_o of_o the_o power_n

which_o make_v he_o to_o extend_v his_o benefit_n and_o compassion_n even_o unto_o those_o very_a person_n who_o resist_v he_o 1._o we_o attribute_v all_o unto_o god_n in_o the_o work_n of_o our_o

merit_n and_o honour_n of_o his_o salvation_n 2._o in_o ascribe_v all_o unto_o god_n as_o we_o do_v and_o in_o renounce_v ourselves_o we_o assure_v the_o quiet_a of_o conscience_n because_o thereby_o we_o put_v all_o the_o confidence_n of_o our_o salvation_n in_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o son_n death_n which_o be_v a_o unshakeable_a foundation_n whereas_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n give_v man_n a_o opinion_n of_o his_o own_o strength_n which_o on_o the_o one_o side_n can_v but_o diminish_v in_o some_o sort_n that_o entire_a confidence_n which_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n make_v he_o promise_v himself_o much_o from_o his_o fast_n and_o from_o his_o other_o good_a work_n like_o the_o pharisee_fw-mi in_o the_o gospel_n and_o notwithstanding_o this_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v miserable_o perplex_v in_o this_o life_n or_o at_o his_o death_n with_o fear_n of_o

very_o strict_o engage_v we_o by_o all_o the_o strong_a band_n of_o love_n and_o gratitude_n to_o worship_n god_n and_o to_o serve_v he_o and_o to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n with_o so_o much_o the_o more_o care_n and_o zeal_n as_o he_o save_v we_o by_o his_o pure_a grace_n overcome_v the_o very_a opposition_n of_o our_o will._n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gentleman_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n

beside_o this_o it_o mingle_v with_o this_o duty_n motive_n of_o hope_n of_o good_a and_o fear_v of_o evil_n which_o in_o their_o nature_n will_v not_o be_v amiss_o be_v it_o as_o easy_a as_o it_o be_v difficult_a to_o keep_v they_o within_o just_a moderation_n which_o nevertheless_o be_v always_o more_o of_o the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o law_n than_o of_o the_o true_a spirit_n of_o the_o

at_o liberty_n or_o at_o least_o under_o a_o relaxation_n from_o good_a work_n as_o if_o they_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v on_o their_o part_n or_o that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v indifferent_a unto_o
