that_o it_o shall_v come_v and_o guide_v the_o church_n into_o all_o truth_n if_o then_o there_o can_v be_v no_o salvation_n without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o no_o save_v truth_n but_o only_o in_o the_o church_n it_o consequent_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n out_o of_o the_o church_n church_n 2._o there_o be_v certain_a grace_n that_o accompany_v salvation_n which_o be_v the_o peculiar_a of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n they_o may_v be_v all_o include_v in_o these_o four_o that_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o election_n the_o grace_n of_o vocation_n 6.9_o the_o grace_n of_o justification_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o sanctification_n all_o which_o joint_o and_o inseparable_o have_v their_o period_n and_o end_n in_o glorification_n this_o we_o may_v plain_o see_v by_o that_o golden_a chain_n of_o man_n salvation_n in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n whereof_o not_o one_o link_n can_v be_v break_v by_o the_o great_a power_n of_o hell_n who_o god_n

grace_n be_v concomitant_a to_o salvation_n and_o the_o peculiar_a of_o the_o church_n be_v not_o only_o manifest_v for_o the_o general_a by_o this_o golden_a chain_n never_o wear_v of_o any_o but_o the_o faithful_a but_o it_o will_v more_o evident_o appear_v if_o we_o examine_v the_o particular_n as_o for_o predestination_n and_o election_n election_n whereby_o god_n do_v choose_v man_n to_o salvation_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n and_o mercy_n without_o any_o merit_n in_o man_n it_o be_v so_o proper_a to_o the_o church_n that_o s._n peter_n call_v it_o 2.9_o a_o choose_a generation_n a_o peculiar_a people_n s._n paul_n say_v of_o the_o church_n 1.4_o that_o they_o be_v the_o choose_v of_o god_n in_o christ_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n accord_v to_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n to_o the_o praise_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n our_o saviour_n distinguish_v the_o sound_a member_n of_o the_o church_n from_o hypocrite_n 13.18_o such_o as_o judas_n say_v i_o speak_v not_o of_o you_o all_o i_o know_v who_o i_o have_v choose_v and_o of_o the_o faithful_a he_o say_v 15.16_o you_o have_v not_o choose_v i_o but_o i_o have_v choose_v you_o and_o ordain_v you_o then_o to_o be_v a_o sound_a member_n of_o the_o church_n and_o to_o be_v elect_a be_v all_o one_o and_o not_o to_o be_v elect_a though_o in_o the_o church_n be_v no_o benefit_n to_o salvation_n therefore_o saint_n luke_n have_v say_v in_o our_o text_n that_o the_o lord_n add_v to_o the_o church_n such_o as_o shall_v be_v save_v 13.18_o say_v afterward_o in_o equivalent_a phrase_n of_o speech_n that_o as_o many_o as_o be_v ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n believe_v to_o this_o accord_v that_o say_n of_o s._n gregory_n speak_v of_o the_o church_n within_o these_o limit_n videantur_fw-la say_v he_o be_v all_o the_o elect_n without_o they_o be_v all_o the_o reprobate_n yea_o although_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v within_o the_o bound_n of_o faith_n no_o marvel_v then_o though_o s._n peter_n advise_v the_o faithful_a to_o secure_v their_o own_o salvation_n do_v counsel_v they_o to_o do_v it_o by_o give_v diligence_n to_o make_v their_o election_n sure_a touch_v vocation_n or_o calling_n i_o mean_v effectual_a calling_n the_o effect_n of_o election_n whereby_o god_n do_v convert_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n to_o himself_o 1.10_o call_v they_o out_o of_o the_o society_n of_o the_o world_n vocation_n into_o the_o communion_n of_o saint_n 2.9_o as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o darkness_n into_o light_n it_o be_v also_o such_o a_o property_n of_o the_o church_n that_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v separate_v from_o it_o therefore_o the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v 1.6_o the_o call_v of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o be_v those_o 8.18_o who_o be_v the_o call_v according_a to_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n 3.1_o and_o partaker_n of_o the_o heavenly_a vocation_n now_o that_o it_o be_v a_o companion_n of_o salvation_n be_v evident_a by_o that_o exhortation_n of_o the_o apostle_n 2.12_o exciting_a the_o faithful_a that_o they_o will_v walk_v worthy_a of_o god_n who_o have_v call_v they_o unto_o his_o kingdom_n and_o glory_n where_o we_o may_v see_v that_o

1.9_o he_o secure_v they_o by_o the_o fidelity_n of_o the_o caller_n god_n say_v he_o be_v faithful_a by_o who_o you_o be_v call_v unto_o the_o fellowship_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n 5.24_o and_o again_o faithful_a be_v he_o that_o call_v you_o who_o also_o will_v do_v it_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o grace_n that_o accompany_v salvation_n and_o by_o name_n of_o effectual_a vocation_n the_o fruit_n of_o election_n do_v confident_o assure_v the_o roman_n 11.29_o that_o the_o gift_n and_o call_n of_o god_n be_v without_o repentance_n a_o text_n so_o clear_a for_o the_o inseparabilitie_n of_o god_n effectual_a call_n and_o consequent_a salvation_n that_o our_o rhemish_a adversary_n who_o every_o where_o catch_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v but_o

come_v we_o now_o to_o justification_n it_o be_v a_o word_n of_o great_a variety_n for_o the_o signification_n of_o it_o but_o we_o need_v trouble_v ourselves_o with_o no_o more_o but_o this_o one_o distinction_n it_o be_v either_o that_o whereby_o we_o stand_v just_a before_o god_n or_o that_o whereby_o we_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v just_a before_o man_n the_o former_a be_v proper_o justification_n the_o latter_a be_v call_v sanctification_n yet_o both_o be_v sometime_o include_v under_o the_o name_n of_o justification_n as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o that_o golden_a chain_n of_o the_o apostle_n before_o cite_v 8.30_o who_o he_o call_v they_o he_o also_o justify_v and_o who_o he_o justify_v they_o he_o also_o glorify_v otherwise_o the_o chain_n have_v be_v imperfect_a and_o have_v lack_v a_o main_a link_n without_o which_o glorification_n can_v not_o follow_v this_o distinction_n of_o justification_n before_o god_n and_o before_o man_n be_v ground_v upon_o these_o word_n of_o saint_n paul_n 4.2_o if_o abraham_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n he_o have_v whereof_o to_o glory_v but_o not_o before_o god_n and_o it_o do_v fit_o reconcile_v saint_n paul_n and_o saint_n james_n the_o one_o speak_v of_o justification_n before_o god_n which_o we_o have_v now_o in_o hand_n the_o other_o of_o justification_n before_o man_n or_o sanctification_n which_o we_o shall_v touch_v in_o the_o next_o place_n now_o concern_v justification_n before_o god_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v both_o what_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v proper_a to_o the_o church_n as_o also_o that_o it_o be_v a_o necessary_a antecedent_n of_o salvation_n justification_n then_o be_v be_v a_o action_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o pardon_v all_o sin_n impute_v righteousness_n to_o every_o true_a believer_n out_o of_o his_o free_a grace_n and_o mercy_n for_o the_o only_a merit_n of_o jesus_n christ._n the_o branch_n be_v many_o require_v distinct_a explication_n 1._o it_o be_v a_o action_n of_o god_n god_n so_o much_o intimate_v the_o apostle_n who_o 8.33_o say_v he_o shall_v lay_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o charge_n of_o god_n elect_n it_o be_v god_n that_o justify_v 2._o it_o consist_v in_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n sin_n to_o this_o purpose_n the_o same_o apostle_n allege_v the_o psalm_n as_o david_n say_v he_o declare_v the_o blessedness_n of_o the_o man_n to_o who_o god_n impute_v
