much_o you_o detract_v away_o from_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a and_o only_a price_n whereby_o the_o same_o be_v purchase_v god_n which_o be_v rich_a in_o mercy_n say_v paul_n through_o his_o great_a love_n wherewith_o he_o love_v we_o 4._o esphe_n 2_o 4._o even_o when_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n have_v quicken_v we_o together_o in_o christ_n for_o by_o grace_n be_v you_o save_v and_o have_v raise_v we_o up_o together_o and_o make_v we_o sit_v together_o in_o heavenly_a thing_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o in_o another_o place_n former_o allege_v god_n have_v not_o save_v we_o for_o the_o deed_n of_o righteousness_n which_o we_o have_v wrought_v but_o of_o his_o mercy_n have_v he_o save_v us._n here_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n appear_v like_o itself_o paul_n give_v it_o his_o due_n and_o make_v it_o the_o only_a doer_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o salvation_n you_o on_o the_o contrary_a believe_v that_o you_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o your_o work_n only_o or_o at_o least_o by_o your_o work_n &_o this_o grace_n couple_v together_o here_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n be_v show_v forth_o unlike_o itself_o you_o rob_v it_o of_o his_o due_n make_v it_o either_o nothing_o at_o all_o as_o when_o you_o will_v be_v justify_v mere_o by_o your_o own_o deed_n without_o it_o or_o at_o least_o but_o a_o partner_n with_o you_o when_o your_o deed_n must_v draw_v in_o the_o same_o yoke_n with_o it_o as_o coaiutor_n or_o fellow_n worker_n in_o that_o business_n assure_v you_o self_n therefore_o that_o the_o perfect_a and_o infinite_a mercy_n of_o our_o good_a and_o gracious_a god_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o imaginary_a merit_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o be_v and_o that_o not_o a_o little_a indignify_v by_o this_o gross_a and_o presumptuous_a doctrine_n for_o do_v but_o serious_o ponder_v with_o yourself_o whether_o that_o mercy_n can_v be_v infinite_a that_o have_v need_n of_o a_o supplement_n and_o how_o it_o can_v be_v perfect_a when_o it_o must_v be_v eek_z out_o with_o deed_n of_o imperfection_n yet_o be_v it_o perfect_a and_o infinite_a and_o shall_v ever_o remain_v so_o let_v never_o so_o many_o million_o of_o your_o merit_n founder_v deserve_v thereof_o as_o ill_o as_o they_o can_v by_o such_o their_o confidency_n in_o their_o own_o deserving_n the_o same_o indignity_n you_o proffer_n to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n which_o be_v likewise_o as_o his_o mercy_n be_v perfect_v and_o infinite_a you_o hope_v nevertheless_o will_v be_v satisfy_v with_o corrupt_a intigrety_n and_o appease_v with_o your_o pollute_a righteousness_n but_o you_o be_v as_o wide_a from_o the_o truth_n as_o the_o east_n be_v from_o the_o west_n for_o there_o be_v no_o justice_n that_o can_v stand_v against_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n but_o that_o which_o carry_v proportion_n answerable_a thereunto_o it_o require_v a_o entire_a and_o full_a payment_n and_o it_o be_v not_o the_o low-prized_n dross_n of_o egypt_n our_o stain_a &_o impure_a action_n but_o the_o refine_a gold_n of_o saba_n the_o unspotted_a and_o pure_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n jesus_n that_o in_o the_o great_a day_n of_o our_o account_n will_v pass_v for_o currant_n no_o no_o you_o shall_v be_v so_o far_o from_o arrogate_a unto_o yourself_o any_o ability_n to_o the_o answer_v of_o that_o so_o infinite_a and_o awful_a justice_n of_o god_n almighty_a as_o rather_o firm_o and_o constant_o to_o rest_v assure_v that_o the_o uprightness_n of_o all_o the_o man_n on_o earth_n though_o the_o same_o indeed_o respective_o be_v please_a and_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n nor_o the_o integrity_n of_o all_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n yet_o i_o know_v they_o excel_v in_o strength_n and_o be_v now_o confirm_v from_o ever_o fall_v nor_o the_o holiness_n of_o all_o the_o saint_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n albeit_o i_o confess_v they_o make_v up_o that_o church_n which_o christ_n himself_o call_v fair_a and_o without_o spot_n and_o honour_v beside_o with_o the_o title_n of_o his_o sister_n his_o love_n his_o spouse_n his_o dove_n and_o his_o undefiled_a that_o the_o uprightness_n i_o say_v integrity_n and_o holiness_n of_o all_o these_o angel_n and_o saint_n nay_o the_o power_n of_o all_o their_o desert_n join_v together_o can_v calm_v the_o tempest_n of_o god_n justice_n from_o shower_v down_o indignation_n upon_o all_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n for_o their_o original_n and_o actual_a transgression_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o qualify_v the_o say_a justice_n towards_o yourself_o in_o particular_a nor_o make_v a_o

commit_v for_o any_o sin_n be_v a_o breach_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n and_o who_o know_v not_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n be_v that_o proper_a act_n of_o rebellion_n whereby_o this_o infinite_a justice_n be_v so_o worthy_o incense_v as_o without_o a_o infinite_a satisfaction_n never_o to_o be_v appease_v yet_o be_v you_o bold_a of_o yourself_o to_o rush_v in_o upon_o that_o displease_a majesty_n and_o have_v no_o lawful_a warrant_n to_o present_v the_o same_o with_o a_o hollow_a bird_n of_o your_o own_o worthiness_n but_o you_o have_v often_o hear_v that_o it_o be_v

you_o must_v understand_v be_v perfect_a and_o it_o be_v necessary_a it_o shall_v be_v so_o for_o it_o encounter_v the_o perfect_a justice_n of_o god_n and_o be_v lay_v in_o the_o balance_n to_o
