avoid_v and_o escape_v punishment_n which_o god_o else_o will_v have_v lay_v upon_o we_o but_o it_o do_v not_o purchase_v salvation_n and_o eternal_a life_n look_v therefore_o what_o place_n nature_n do_v hold_v in_o the_o heir_n that_o very_o same_o hold_v faith_n in_o the_o case_n of_o justification_n by_o the_o gospel_n for_o in_o this_o one_o thing_n be_v offer_v unto_o we_o the_o whole_a gift_n of_o perfect_a salvation_n grace_n and_o blessedness_n only_o that_o we_o apprehend_v christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n neither_o let_v any_o man_n therefore_o think_v that_o this_o matter_n concern_v our_o salvation_n be_v to_o narrow_o and_o straight_o comprise_v of_o i_o as_o if_o i_o shall_v hold_v a_o dolphin_n in_o a_o basin_n for_o that_o i_o require_v nothing_o else_o hereuntoo_o but_o faith_n only_o in_o christ_n i_o know_v that_o eternal_a life_n be_v a_o difficulty_n thing_n and_o not_o proper_a too_o our_o nature_n do_v and_o therefore_o i_o say_v it_o consist_v only_o in_o apprehend_v christ_n jesus_n for_o that_o nothing_o in_o this_o world_n be_v hard_a or_o difficult_a but_o only_a faith_n in_o christ_n as_o no_o man_n have_v ever_o please_v the_o father_n beside_o christ_n so_o in_o he_o the_o father_n be_v so_o well_o please_v that_o for_o his_o sake_n he_o dear_o love_v all_o those_o who_o be_v of_o christ_n let_v no_o work_v therefore_o although_o never_o so_o godly_a pufe_v up_o a_o man_n as_o if_o he_o be_v pure_a or_o rather_o not_o unpure_a and_o unprofitable_a even_o in_o his_o most_o holy_a work_n christ_n only_o be_v great_a and_o mighty_a in_o &_o through_o his_o work_n work_v therefore_o proper_o pertain_v too_o christ_n faith_n proper_o unto_o we_o which_o sure_o be_v of_o force_n before_o god._n but_o by_o this_o mean_n a_o window_n be_v open_v dissolve_v thou_o say_v of_o overmuch_o liberty_n too_o some_o who_o by_o nature_n be_v tootoo_o much_o prone_a and_o give_v to_o allkind_a of_o licentious_a life_n nay_o rather_o whatsoever_o be_v open_v here_o god_n of_o his_o singular_a mercy_n have_v open_v it_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n jesus_n have_v open_v it_o not_o we_o who_o

window_n of_o wickedness_n but_o the_o gate_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n if_o any_o man_n be_v of_o such_o a_o froward_a and_o ill_o dispose_v nature_n that_o of_o a_o joyful_a and_o bless_a

never_o otherwise_o yet_o among_o man_n but_o that_o the_o great_a part_n always_o do_v most_o wicked_o abuse_v the_o best_a thing_n final_o if_o all_o other_o man_n whosoever_o will_v abuse_v this_o

confident_o this_o that_o i_o have_v say_v for_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o this_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v retain_v and_o preach_v in_o the_o church_n which_o be_v of_o long_a time_n hide_v from_o

in_o the_o church_n yet_o such_o be_v the_o mischief_n and_o misery_n of_o these_o wicked_a day_n through_o the_o subtle_a practise_v of_o satan_n that_o all_o christendom_n be_v in_o a_o uproar_n
