purge_v from_o sin_n deliver_v from_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o and_o to_o be_v have_v and_o receive_v into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n of_o eternal_a life_n yea_o and_o that_o before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n before_o the_o which_o all_o man_n be_v accuse_v and_o condemn_v as_o guilty_a and_o that_o we_o shall_v every_o one_o of_o we_o before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n be_v convict_v and_o find_v guilty_n of_o sin_n and_o eternal_a damnation_n paul_n in_o the_o third_o to_o the_o roman_n do_v plain_o teach_v and_o again_o that_o justification_n be_v the_o take_v away_o and_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n the_o same_o apt_o also_o teach_v acts._n 13._o wherefore_o the_o remission_n of_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o punishment_n or_o damnation_n be_v call_v of_o he_o justification_n rom._n 5._o and_o that_o to_o be_v justify_v and_o adopt_v in_o the_o number_n of_o the_o son_n and_o heir_n of_o god_n be_v all_o one_o we_o may_v gather_v by_o that_o paul_n say_v we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o saint_n john_n say_v but_o as_o many_o as_o believe_v he_o he_o give_v they_o heir_n power_n to_o be_v make_v the_o son_n of_o god._n second_o we_o must_v seek_v the_o cause_n why_o god_n forgive_v our_o sin_n deliver_v we_o from_o damnation_n and_o adopt_v we_o into_o his_o son_n and_o heir_n true_o the_o proper_a cause_n hereof_o be_v his_o mercy_n and_o grace_n by_o the_o which_o he_o give_v unto_o we_o his_o only_a son_n to_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o to_o suffer_v death_n and_o shed_v his_o blood_n for_o our_o sake_n to_o the_o end_n that_o be_v deliver_v from_o our_o sin_n eternal_a death_n and_o damnation_n free_a from_o all_o accusation_n we_o may_v be_v absolve_v before_o the_o judgement_n

the_o grace_n of_o god_n the_o blood_n and_o death_n of_o chryst_n and_o his_o innocence_n and_o righteousness_n for_o who_o sake_n we_o be_v not_o condemn_v but_o be_v adopt_v into_o his_o son_n and_o heir_n and_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o eternal_a life_n of_o this_o doctrine_n there_o be_v diverse_a proof_n in_o paul_n rom._n 3._o 4._o and._n 5._o 2._o corinth_n 5._o ephesi_n 1._o coloss._n 1._o and._n 2._o tim._n 2._o etc_n etc_n furthermore_o we_o must_v note_v by_o what_o mean_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n us._n redemption_n righteousness_n and_o eternal_a life_n be_v impute_v unto_o we_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n how_o we_o receive_v it_o and_o by_o what_o mean_v they_o be_v make_v we_o so_o that_o christ_n in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o he_o do_v live_v all_o the_o good_a gift_n of_o god_n be_v impute_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n testify_v almost_o every_o where_o and_o chief_o our_o lord_n himself_o say_v it_o be_v the_o spirit_n which_o quicken_v etc_n etc_n and_o we_o receive_v all_o these_o thing_n by_o faith_n yea_o by_o faith_n only_o and_o by_o none_o other_o thing_n and_o therefore_o it_o may_v very_o well_o be_v say_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o say_v only_o for_o christ_n himself_o in_o the_o third_o of_o john_n teach_v we_o that_o we_o must_v be_v save_v even_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o israelite_n be_v heal_v of_o the_o deadly_a sting_a of_o the_o serpent_n for_o as_o they_o can_v by_o none_o other_o mean_n attain_v unto_o health_n than_o by_o the_o behold_n of_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n hang_v up_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o camp_n so_o we_o can_v by_o none_o other_o mean_n be_v deliver_v from_o everlasting_a death_n and_o damnation_n and_o be_v preserve_v in_o eternal_a life_n than_o by_o the_o behold_n of_o christ_n crucify_a and_o this_o behold_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v faith_n yea_o faith_n only_o for_o as_o no_o work_n no_o prayer_n fast_n alm_n sacrifice_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o whatsoever_o can_v help_v the_o sting_v of_o the_o serpent_n but_o only_o the_o behold_n of_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n so_o be_v there_o nothing_o that_o can_v save_v we_o but_o faith_n only_o wherefore_o chryst_n in_o the_o six_o chapter_n of_o saint_n john_n say_v very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n you_o have_v no_o life_n in_o you_o and_o to_o eat_v the_o lord_n himself_o interpret_v it_o to_o believe_v but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o desire_v to_o know_v more_o testimony_n by_o the_o which_o our_o justification_n in_o christ_n by_o faith_n only_o be_v prove_v then_o let_v he_o read_v the_o third_o and_o four_o chapter_n of_o s._n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n and_o also_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o galatian_n where_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o second_o chapter_n write_v thus_o now_o live_v i_o no_o long_o but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o and_o the_o life_n which_o i_o now_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n i_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n etc_n etc_n wherefore_o when_o we_o say_v that_o faith_n only_o in_o chryst_n justify_v we_o attribute_v not_o justification_n to_o faith_n as_o in_o respect_n that_o it_o be_v any_o work_n of_o we_o for_o faith_n also_o be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_o but_o because_o that_o faith_n only_o behold_v or_o regard_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o chryst_n and_o trust_v only_o herein_o &_o in_o none_o other_o thing_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n justify_v as_o we_o have_v say_v before_o therefore_o when_o we_o strive_v and_o contend_v about_o this_o question_n faith_n only_o justify_v we_o strive_v for_o christ_n cause_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o god_o that_o this_o justification_n may_v be_v attribute_v to_o none_o other_o than_o christ_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v have_v one_o only_o true_a righteousness_n last_o justify_v of_o all_o we_o must_v show_v why_o not_o only_o we_o do_v not_o attribute_v justification_n to_o work_v but_o also_o wherefore_o we_o suffer_v not_o part_n thereof_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o work_n and_o part_n to_o faith_n but_o say_v plain_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o work_n first_o for_o that_o god_n will_v in_o no_o wise_n have_v we_o to_o glory_n and_o trust_n in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o he_o alone_o like_a as_o it_o be_v manifest_o teach_v rom._n 3._o 1._o corinth_n 1._o lerem_fw-la 9_o those_o therefore_o which_o impute_v their_o

not_o in_o themselves_o but_o in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n alone_o second_o all_o good_a work_n be_v wrought_v of_o good_a man_n wherefore_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n that_o the_o tree_n be_v make_v good_a before_o she_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n and_o therefore_o the_o fruit_n make_v not_o the_o tree_n good_a but_o be_v rather_o the_o sign_n of_o a_o good_a trâ—e_n so_o it_o follow_v that_o work_v dâ—â—_n not_o iustfie_v because_o they_o be_v â—oone_o of_o those_o which_o before_o be_v make_v righteous_a through_o grace_n wherefore_o all_o man_n may_v easy_o know_v that_o the_o righteous_a do_v not_o good_a work_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v thereby_o be_v righteous_a but_o rather_o because_o they_o be_v righteous_a so_o that_o now_o those_o which_o without_o work_n be_v first_o justify_v by_o grace_n bring_v afterward_o forth_o good_a work_n even_o as_o the_o good_a tree_n bear_v good_a fruit_n three_o the_o work_n even_o of_o the_o faithful_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o infirmity_n of_o man_n nature_n which_o remain_v with_o we_o yea_o unto_o death_n be_v never_o so_o pure_a and_o perfect_a that_o they_o dare_v ascribe_v

the_o intercession_n of_o christ_n neither_o say_v we_o that_o we_o have_v need_n of_o no_o intercessor_n with_o god_n but_o like_a as_o god_n alone_o be_v to_o be_v call_v upon_o so_o ought_v we_o to_o use_v none_o other_o intercession_n nor_o any_o other_o advocate_n or_o intercessor_n before_o god_n than_o christ_n jesus_n only_o because_o the_o father_n have_v appoint_v he_o alone_o to_o this_o function_n &_o therefore_o in_o he_o he_o hear_v and_o receive_v our_o prayer_n as_o i_o have_v heretofore_o sufficient_o prove_v wherefore_o if_o we_o will_v do_v obedient_a christ._n
