be_v for_o righteousness_n and_o life_n so_o that_o here_o be_v nothing_o to_o exalt_v the_o new_a creature_n to_o righteousness_n for_o justification_n but_o to_o exalt_v christ_n jesus_n to_o be_v

abraham_n the_o obedience_n of_o abraham_n to_o god_n be_v a_o ground_n of_o man_n justification_n of_o abraham_n as_o a_o true_a believer_n provide_v his_o action_n be_v good_a obedience_n which_o seem_v so_o unnatural_a wherefore_o god_n himself_o witness_v to_o his_o obedience_n as_o good_a and_o a_o eminent_a effect_n of_o true_a faith_n therefore_o he_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n not_o as_o to_o his_o state_n before_o god_n for_o he_o be_v in_o a_o justify_v state_n before_o but_o first_o provide_v his_o obedience_n be_v good_a all_o man_n must_v justify_v abraham_n to_o be_v a_o eminent_a believer_n again_o god_n bear_v witness_v to_o abraham_n obedience_n as_o good_a therefore_o abraham_n be_v justify_v to_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n from_o his_o work_n so_o that_o abraham_n be_v justify_v as_o to_o his_o faith_n as_o true_a good_a and_o eminent_a by_o he_o or_o from_o his_o obedience_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v thou_o see_v how_o his_o faith_n co-work_n with_o his_o work_n i._n e._n he_o do_v these_o action_n in_o faith_n and_o faith_n carry_v he_o on_o to_o such_o work_n his_o faith_n be_v perfect_v thereby_o i._n e._n as_o a_o tree_n that_o have_v its_o fruit_n grow_v upon_o it_o all_o true_a faith_n thrive_a and_o flourish_v in_o that_o manner_n he_o insist_o upon_o abraham_n again_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v fulfil_v

the_o promise_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n that_o he_o believe_v 2._o the_o scripture_n say_v his_o faith_n work_v by_o love_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o dead_a faith_n he_o be_v call_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n he_o be_v from_o the_o greatness_n of_o love_n he_o have_v to_o god_n ready_a to_o yield_v any_o obedience_n to_o god_n thence_o the_o apostle_n deny_v not_o that_o he_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o as_o to_o his_o person_n but_o that_o god_n declare_v and_o witness_v also_o to_o his_o obedience_n as_o approve_v of_o by_o he_o which_o in_o the_o sense_n the_o apostle_n be_v speak_v of_o be_v a_o justification_n as_o to_o his_o faith_n and_o the_o goodness_n of_o it_o in_o his_o particular_a act_n of_o obedience_n v._o 24._o you_o see_v therefore_o that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o approbation_n of_o his_o work_n and_o a_o commendation_n from_o god_n for_o they_o and_o not_o of_o his_o faith_n only_o god_n may_v commend_v and_o approve_v of_o a_o man_n work_n as_o well_o as_o his_o faith_n for_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o justification_n by_o way_n of_o commendation_n and_o approbation_n of_o a_o man_n faith_n and_o work_v which_o the_o apostle_n james_n here_o speak_v of_o likewise_o v._n 25._o rahab_n the_o harlot_n be_v she_o not_o justify_v by_o work_n i._n e._n do_v

this_o action_n of_o rahab_n as_o treachery_n to_o her_o native_a country_n and_o therefore_o god_n justify_v she_o in_o this_o particular_a action_n that_o it_o be_v good_a be_v do_v in_o faith_n god_n witness_v to_o it_o in_o his_o word_n and_o justify_v she_o as_o a_o believer_n in_o foro_fw-la mundi_fw-la by_o this_o eminent_a act_n of_o she_o v._o 26._o whence_o have_v give_v these_o instance_n he_o conclude_v as_o a_o body_n without_o a_o spirit_n be_v dead_a so_o be_v faith_n without_o work_n dead_a and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o he_o undertake_v to_o prove_v that_o faith_n i._n e._n suppose_a or_o profess_v be_v dead_a if_o it_o be_v fruitless_a hence_o he_o say_v believer_n have_v be_v justify_v to_o be_v so_o by_o god_n in_o give_v testimony_n to_o their_o work_n as_o true_a fruit_n of_o save_a faith_n wherefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o james_n and_o paul_n be_v agree_v in_o all_o 1._o that_o james_n speak_v of_o faith_n in_o general_n a_o profession_n of_o christian_a faith_n and_o that_o such_o profession_n be_v empty_a and_o profitable_a to_o ourselves_o and_o other_o as_o also_o dead_a in_o itself_o if_o it_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o good_a work_n so_o the_o apostle_n paul_n often_o speak_v of_o save_a faith_n and_o our_o saviour_n christ_n that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o better_a argument_n of_o each_o other_o truth_n of_o faith_n than_o the_o fruit_n grow_v upon_o the_o tree_n this_o be_v without_o question_n to_o v._o 19_o 2._o he_o prove_v it_o in_o that_o they_o be_v true_a believer_n have_v a_o double_a justification_n 1_o by_o faith_n only_o and_o here_o he_o concur_v with_o paul_n concern_v his_o justification_n before_o god_n v._o 23._o and_o yet_o he_o have_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o wrought_v by_o love_n for_o the_o scripture_n call_v he_o the_o friend_n of_o god_n 2._o that_o there_o be_v a_o justification_n of_o a_o person_n as_o to_o a_o particular_a act_n as_o well_o as_o his_o person_n and_o state_n and_o therefore_o the_o instance_n of_o abraham_n offering_n his_o son_n and_o rahab_n be_v bring_v in_o and_o this_o be_v that_o justification_n which_o the_o apostle_n paul_n speak_v not_o so_o much_o of_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v in_o several_a case_n as_o abel_n and_o enoch_n god_n testify_v some_o way_n to_o their_o service_n in_o foro_fw-la mundi_fw-la and_o so_o job_n who_o god_n justify_v against_o the_o unjust_a charge_n of_o his_o friend_n so_o phineas_n his_o zeal_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o cosbi_n that_o seem_v a_o rash_a and_o mutinous_a piece_n of_o usurpation_n god_n justify_v he_o in_o it_o declare_v his_o high_a approbation_n thereof_o hence_o james_n speak_v of_o faith_n that_o accompany_v salvation_n at_o large_a and_o condemn_v that_o as_o false_a and_o hypocritical_a that_o be_v not_o fruitful_a 2._o he_o speak_v of_o justification_n at_o large_a which_o be_v by_o faith_n in_o foro_fw-la divino_fw-la before_o god_n and_o in_o foro_fw-la humano_fw-la before_o man_n by_o work_n and_o fruit_n of_o faith_n that_o in_o foro_fw-la divino_fw-la be_v by_o faith_n only_o without_o work_n 1._o in_o that_o he_o say_v no_o work_n of_o we_o can_v answer_v god_n law_n v._o 10._o he_o that_o keep_v or_o pretend_v to_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o offend_v in_o one_o point_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o whence_o arise_v this_o unanswerable_a argument_n they_o that_o can_v keep_v the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n without_o offend_v in_o out_o point_n can_v never_o be_v justify_v before_o god_n by_o work_n but_o none_o can_v do_v so_o ergo._n 2._o he_o assert_v justification_n by_o faith_n before_o god_n in_o the_o instance_n of_o abraham_n faith_n use_v the_o same_o expression_n and_o do_v not_o deny_v this_o to_o be_v true_a justification_n and_o full_a before_o god_n but_o only_o abraham_n bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n before_o man_n from_o his_o faith_n work_v by_o love_n he_o be_v call_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n thus_o god_n justify_v he_o in_o his_o obedience_n as_o a_o true_a believer_n ergo_fw-la he_o conclude_v as_o all_o true_a faith_n so_o true_a justify_v faith_n have_v such_o fruit_n 3._o james_n show_v how_o god_n often_o bear_v witness_n and_o approve_v of_o particular_a action_n which_o man_n be_v ready_a to_o condemn_v such_o as_o abraham_n offer_v up_o his_o
