thereupon_o affirm_v that_o faith_n only_o without_o work_n do_v justify_v procreant_o to_o constitute_v the_o state_n of_o justification_n but_o faith_n with_o work_n and_o by_o work_n do_v justify_v conservant_o to_o continue_v that_o state_n then_o it_o will_v plain_o appear_v concern_v paul_n and_o james_n that_o neither_o of_o their_o doctrine_n be_v a_o paradox_n that_o neither_o be_v to_o other_o repugnant_a but_o each_o with_o the_o other_o be_v consistent_a and_o both_o be_v conducent_a to_o the_o verity_n and_o sanctity_n of_o christianity_n nay_o more_o the_o doctrine_n of_o james_n be_v to_o that_o of_o paul_n a_o necessary_a consequent_a borrow_v from_o paul_n those_o principle_n whereby_o it_o be_v both_o raise_v and_o prove_v for_o because_o as_o paul_n teach_v my_o

therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v as_o saint_n james_n teach_v that_o good_a work_n do_v continue_v and_o maintain_v the_o state_n of_o it_o for_o although_o they_o do_v not_o procreate_v or_o

that_o it_o may_v final_o avail_v in_o jesus_n christ_n thus_o james_n in_o his_o doctrine_n and_o in_o his_o reason_n thereof_o second_v paul_n not_o differ_v from_o he_o in_o sense_n and_o truth_n
