before_o speak_v the_o reason_n which_o afterward_o follow_v be_v bring_v to_o confirm_v this_o proposition_n now_o allege_v namely_o that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o that_o without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n hitherto_o when_o as_o at_o the_o beginning_n keep_v here_o be_v repeat_v the_o method_n or_o order_n which_o the_o apostle_n have_v hither_o to_o keep_v the_o apostle_n have_v set_v forth_o that_o by_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n come_v salvation_n and_o righteousness_n he_o use_v this_o reason_n that_o whersoever_o the_o gospel_n and_o faith_n

he_o think_v it_o good_a to_o confute_v a_o objection_n namely_o that_o by_o faith_n he_o overthrow_v not_o the_o law_n but_o rather_o by_o faith_n confirm_v it_o this_o self_n same_o thing_n be_v object_v unto_o we_o in_o our_o day_n that_o by_o faith_n which_o with_o the_o apostle_n we_o affirm_v to_o justify_v we_o overthrow_v all_o honest_a and_o holy_a work_n of_o this_o thing_n do_v they_o cry_v out_o which_o defend_v the_o work_n wrought_v in_o the_o sacrament_n which_o boast_v of_o work_n of_o supererogation_n which_o defend_v purgatory_n invocation_n of_o saint_n and_o

of_o god_n but_o we_o can_v not_o so_o say_v as_o touch_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v accuse_v to_o have_v overthrow_v because_o they_o be_v abuse_n and_o mere_a superstition_n diverse_a in_o

where_o hear_v as_o chrisostome_n write_v but_o it_o be_v long_o first_o or_o ever_o the_o wise_a and_o learned_a philosopher_n can_v spread_v abroad_o their_o doctrine_n far_o than_o grece_n and_o
