for_o saint_n paul_n by_o this_o word_n justify_v mean_v that_o god_n free_o impute_v righteousness_n unto_o he_o as_o name_o 3.24.25.28_o read_v rom._n 4.1.4.5.6.15.16_o and_o cap._n 3.24.25.28_o justify_v by_o faith_n in_o saint_n paul_n mind_n be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v righteousness_n be_v impute_v unto_o he_o for_o his_o belief_n sake_n and_o for_o nothing_o else_o and_o his_o end_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v justify_v by_o work_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o that_o this_o blessedness_n to_o be_v just_a before_o god_n come_v by_o faith_n without_o work_n but_o saint_n james_n have_v to_o do_v with_o such_o as_o boast_v of_o faith_n and_o take_v to_o themselves_o licence_n to_o sin_n have_v this_o end_n namely_o to_o prove_v that_o faith_n without_o work_n be_v in_o deed_n no_o faith_n proper_o and_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o a_o dead_a faith_n and_o therefore_o by_o this_o word_n justify_v mean_v only_o this_o that_o by_o work_n a_o man_n be_v declare_v and_o make_v know_v tn_z be_v justify_v by_o faith_n that_o be_v that_o he_o have_v not_o a_o vain_a dead_a and_o fruitless_a faith_n and_o therefore_o see_v that_o abraham_n be_v so_o justify_v that_o be_v declare_v and_o make_v know_v to_o be_v a_o just_a man_n of_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n testify_v by_o such_o a_o notable_a work_n he_o be_v our_o father_n we_o must_v be_v find_v to_o have_v such_o a_o work_v faith_n or_o else_o we_o can_v be_v know_v to_o be_v any_o other_o but_o hypocrite_n of_o a_o dead_a and_o counterfeit_a faith_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o proper_a meaning_n of_o saint_n james_n first_o consider_v that_o this_o word_n justify_v be_v diverse_o use_v and_o to_o be_v take_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o all_o other_o word_n be_v according_a to_o the_o scope_n and_o purpose_n of_o every_o place_n for_o rom._n 6._o where_o he_o say_v 6.7_o say_v rom._n 6.7_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v justify_v from_o sin_n there_o it_o signify_v to_o be_v free_a as_o it_o be_v by_o some_o translate_v and_o in_o 7.29_o in_o cap._n 7.29_o luke_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o publican_n justify_v god_n be_v baptize_v with_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n where_o it_o signify_v to_o praise_n god_n for_o his_o mercy_n goodness_n and_o righteousness_n in_o 11.19_o in_o math._n 11.19_o matthew_n it_o

sense_n and_o meaning_n as_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o several_a place_n afford_v so_o here_o saint_n james_n intention_n be_v to_o teach_v the_o vanity_n of_o he_o that_o boast_v of_o faith_n and_o yet_o live_v wicked_o by_o all_o reason_n must_v be_v understand_v to_o mean_v by_o the_o word_n justify_v the_o declare_v of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o faith_n by_o his_o work_n and_o this_o will_v easy_o appear_v if_o you_o mark_v his_o propound_v of_o this_o question_n the_o order_n of_o his_o reason_n and_o his_o conclusion_n first_o his_o proposition_n vers_fw-la 14._o what_o avail_v

lively_a do_v justify_v or_o so_o far_o to_o prefer_v work_n that_o they_o justify_v or_o save_v we_o with_o or_o without_o faith_n and_o this_o meaning_n do_v all_o the_o order_n of_o his_o reason_n

which_o if_o it_o appear_v not_o by_o work_n it_o declare_v that_o faith_n be_v dead_a in_o itself_o so_o that_o saint_n james_n speak_v only_o against_o a_o dead_a faith_n mean_v not_o by_o any_o
