as_o the_o effect_n of_o that_o act_n may_v both_o make_v up_o the_o compositum_fw-la of_o universal_a justification_n you_o see_v how_o tender_a i_o be_o of_o persist_v in_o any_o mistake_n wherein_o i_o have_v or_o may_v prejudice_v other_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o the_o scripture_n do_v denominate_v or_o pronounce_v any_o one_o righteous_a or_o a_o just_a man_n from_o one_o end_v to_o

the_o question_n therefore_o be_v whether_o god_n elect_n be_v chargeable_a with_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v condemnable_a for_o against_o a_o righteous_a man_n there_o be_v no_o law_n this_o answer_v the_o end_n of_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n that_o he_o may_v not_o only_o condemn_v sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n but_o that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n may_v

of_o the_o law_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n etc._n etc._n 2_o dly_z that_o we_o can_v deny_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o gospel_n until_o we_o have_v perform_v that_o remedying_a condition_n which_o god_n require_v of_o we_o for_o the_o escape_v the_o condemnation_n or_o rather_o until_o that_o true_a faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v wrought_v in_o we_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n as_o the_o condition_n upon_o and_o through_o which_o god_n do_v both_o pardon_n and_o justify_v 3_o dly_z that_o god_n justify_v we_o by_o this_o righteousness_n that_o be_v by_o faith_n or_o evangelical_n obedience_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n it_o must_v be_v consider_v to_o be_v without_o those_o work_n of_o the_o law_n which_o the_o apostle_n intend_v as_o namely_o those_o that_o be_v fleshly_a and_o shaddowy_a that_o be_v not_o essential_a to_o a_o evangelical_n righteousness_n and_o not_o that_o substantial_a and_o continue_a obedience_n of_o that_o love_n which_o be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n 4_o thly_a that_o evangelical_n obedience_n and_o do_v righteousness_n by_o which_o god_n justify_v or_o pronounce_v any_o one_o righteous_a and_o in_o which_o his_o elect_n be_v not_o chargeable_a or_o condemnable_a either_o by_o law_n or_o gospel_n must_v needs_o therefore_o be_v a_o sincere_a obedience_n without_o the_o mixture_n of_o sin_n or_o any_o thing_n condemnable_a christ_n be_v the_o cause_n and_o worker_n of_o that_o faith_n sanctification_n and_o righteousness_n in_o the_o true_a believer_n from_o whence_o his_o obedience_n and_o do_v of_o righteousness_n proceed_v all_o which_o serious_o consider_v do_v both_o shut_v out_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n to_o man_n while_o actual_a in_o their_o sin_n and_o the_o pronounce_v they_o righteous_a in_o god_n sight_n who_o be_v by_o his_o spirit_n denounce_v or_o condemn_v in_o themselves_o as_o unrighteous_a and_o disobedient_a person_n for_o where_o real_a faith_n and_o repentance_n from_o dead_a work_n be_v wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n there_o be_v a_o real_a cessation_n from_o those_o work_n and_o evil_a action_n although_o the_o very_a nature_n and_o seed_n thereof_o be_v not_o immediate_o wrought_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n but_o by_o degree_n but_o then_o i_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v that_o pardon_v or_o remission_n be_v not_o any_o essential_a part_n or_o no_o part_n of_o justification_n but_o the_o effect_n as_o in_o page_n 4._o see_v that_o pardon_n of_o sin_n together_o with_o our_o fa●th_n and_o repentance_n as_o the_o condition_n go_v both_o into_o universal_a justification_n as_o before_o though_o a_o pardon_n of_o sin_n pass_v upon_o true_a faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v not_o alone_o the_o absolute_a justification_n but_o also_o a_o perseverance_n in_o faithful_a obedience_n to_o the_o gospel_n be_v necessary_a to_o a_o absolute_a justify_v estate_n both_o be_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o and_o through_o christ_n wherein_o he_o look_v upon_o the_o creature_n that_o be_v true_o humble_v with_o a_o

oblige_v to_o faithfulness_n and_o continuance_n in_o the_o truth_n unto_o the_o end_n so_o that_o in_o a_o absolute_a justify_v estate_n there_o be_v both_o a_o experience_n of_o true_a humility_n
