outward_a the_o other_o inward_a the_o outward_a be_v that_o which_o come_v from_o the_o mouth_n of_o man_n the_o inward_a be_v that_o which_o come_v from_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o conscience_n and_o this_o inward_a teach_n because_o it_o be_v next_o to_o the_o heart_n work_v far_o more_o strong_o upon_o it_o then_o the_o outward_a do_v when_o man_n have_v more_o of_o this_o inward_a teach_n and_o less_o of_o the_o outward_a then_o be_v there_o far_o better_a live_n for_o than_o they_o live_v always_o in_o fear_n of_o offend_v and_o assoon_o as_o they_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n amiss_o their_o conscience_n by_o and_o by_o give_v they_o a_o nip_n and_o a_o memento_n for_o it_o then_o they_o confess_v their_o sin_n to_o god_n and_o their_o minister_n for_o spiritual_a comfort_n and_o

outward_a teach_n be_v not_o right_o understand_v have_v beat_v away_o this_o i'faith_o only_o justify_v say_v the_o vulgar_a preacher_n then_o say_v the_o solifidian_n and_o loose_a liver_n what_o need_v i_o care_v how_o i_o live_v no_o sin_n can_v hurt_v i_o so_o long_o as_o i_o believe_v thy_o preacher_n and_o thou_o be_v both_o in_o a_o error_n because_o god_n word_n no_o where_o teach_v this_o but_o the_o contrary_n you_o see_v say_v s._n james_n how_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n 24._o and_o not_o by_o faith_n only_o thou_o will_v say_v the_o father_n teach_v this_o

beginning_n in_o the_o preparation_n of_o our_o justification_n but_o our_o young_a preacher_n and_o hearer_n shut_v up_o all_o in_o faith_n only_o and_o stay_v at_o the_o beginning_n and_o thus_o verbo_fw-la tenus_fw-la they_o prove_v but_o half-christians_a thou_o own_o conscience_n will_v preach_v better_o to_o thou_o for_o that_o will_v exclude_v no_o virtue_n and_o admit_v no_o vice_n and_o as_o for_o thou_o which_o be_v a_o hearer_n though_o thy_o principle_n be_v good_a yet_o thy_o apprehension_n can_v well_o digest_v they_o because_o they_o be_v somewhat_o above_o thy_o reach_n therefore_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n have_v provide_v that_o the_o common_a people_n shall_v be_v content_a with_o the_o common_a faith_n as_o s._n paul_n call_v it_o titus_n 1._o 4._o and_o
