now_o to_o speak_v only_o of_o the_o reason_n for_o it_o be_v write_v etc._n etc._n wherein_o observe_v three_o thing_n 1._o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o begin_v a_o good_a course_n of_o life_n unless_o thou_o hold_v it_o out_o and_o continue_v till_o the_o end_n 2._o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o a_o christian_n to_o perform_v obedience_n to_o some_o of_o god_n precept_n and_o to_o bear_v with_o himself_o wilful_o in_o the_o breach_n of_o other_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o all_o 3._o that_o the_o rule_n of_o our_o obedience_n be_v no_o unwritten_a tradition_n but_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n but_o before_o i_o speak_v of_o these_o i_o gather_v from_o the_o connexion_n this_o conclusion_n that_o no_o man_n can_v in_o this_o life_n perfect_o fulfil_v the_o will_n of_o god_n it_o follow_v thus_o because_o as_o it_o be_v write_v curse_a etc._n etc._n so_o it_o be_v write_v 7._o this_o do_v and_o thou_o shall_v live_v 7._o and_o the_o man_n that_o do_v these_o thing_n shall_v live_v in_o they_o so_o that_o the_o apostle_n take_v this_o for_o grant_v or_o else_o his_o argument_n be_v of_o no_o force_n this_o be_v evident_o confirm_v by_o many_o place_n of_o scripture_n 1_o king_n 8._o 49._o eccles_n 7._o 22._o psal_n 143._o 2._o isa_n 64._o 6._o acts._n 15._o 10._o acts._n 13._o 39_o 1_o joh._n 1._o 8._o 2._o it_o be_v confirm_v by_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v draw_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v in_o the_o best_a christian_n from_o which_o we_o may_v thus_o argue_v he_o that_o consist_v of_o flesh_n as_o well_o as_o of_o spirit_n canno●_n fulfil_v the_o law_n no_o not_o in_o his_o best_a action_n but_o the_o best_a christian_a that_o ever_o live_v consist_v of_o flesh_n as_o well_o as_o of_o spirit_n therefore_o he_o can_v fulfil_v the_o law_n the_o minor_a have_v be_v former_o prove_v the_o major_n be_v plain_a for_o as_o he_o be_v carnal_a he_o be_v sell_v under_o sin_n the_o wisdom_n thereof_o be_v enmity_n against_o god_n for_o it_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n neither_o indeed_o can_v be_v thus_o it_o be_v prove_v from_o the_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o if_o righteousness_n be_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n than_o christ_n die_v without_o a_o cause_n gal._n 3._o 21._o and_o if_o they_o which_o be_v of_o the_o law_n be_v heir_n then_o say_v be_v make_v void_a and_o the_o promise_n be_v make_v of_o no_o effect_n rom._n 4._o 14._o for_o he_o come_v to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n matth._n 5._o 17._o which_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v fulfil_v of_o we_o in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v weak_a because_o of_o the_o flesh_n therefore_o god_n send_v his_o son_n in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n rom._n 8._o 3._o but_o the_o romish_a sophister_n answer_n that_o this_o make_v against_o the_o pelagian_n which_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o a_o man_n may_v by_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n fulfil_v the_o law_n not_o against_o they_o which_o hold_v that_o this_o ability_n come_v from_o grace_n and_o that_o the_o good_a work_n of_o a_o christian_a proceed_v from_o christ_n as_o the_o juice_n in_o the_o branch_n proceed_v from_o the_o vine_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o neither_o the_o pelagian_n nor_o these_o against_o who_o the_o apostle_n dispute_v do_v altogether_o exclude_v grace_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o be_v strong_a against_o they_o it_o will_v be_v of_o force_n against_o the_o papist_n too_o 2._o their_o answer_n be_v ground_v upon_o a_o false_a supposition_n as_o that_o the_o work_n of_o a_o christian_a do_v proceed_v whole_o from_o christ_n for_o they_o they_o do_v in_o part_n proceed_v from_o the_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o though_o as_o they_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o apply_v unto_o the_o faithful_a the_o force_n and_o efficacy_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n they_o be_v perfect_a yet_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o flesh_n they_o be_v stain_v and_o pollute_v 3._o christ_n die_v for_o we_o not_o by_o any_o inherent_a but_o by_o his_o impute_a righteousness_n which_o righteousness_n be_v apply_v and_o appropriate_v unto_o we_o principal_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n instrumental_o by_o faith_n whereby_o we_o be_v incorporate_v into_o christ_n and_o so_o partaker_n of_o his_o righteousness_n we_o may_v be_v justify_v i_o think_v abraham_n be_v as_o holy_a a_o man_n as_o ignatius_n the_o father_n of_o jesuit_n or_o dominicus_n and_o franciscus_n the_o founder_n of_o friar_n in_o who_o say_v bellarmine_n their_o very_a adversary_n can_v find_v nothing_o that_o deserve_v reprehension_n praeter_fw-la nimiam_fw-la sanctitatem_fw-la save_o their_o too_o much_o holiness_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o his_o good_a work_n but_o his_o faith_n for_o which_o he_o be_v count_v righteous_a i_o know_v that_o this_o imputative_a righteousness_n be_v count_v with_o they_o a_o putative_a and_o imaginary_a righteousness_n but_o herein_o the_o injury_n be_v not_o do_v unto_o we_o but_o unto_o he_o who_o say_v to_o he_o that_o work_v not_o but_o believe_v in_o he_o that_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a his_o faith_n be_v impute_v for_o righteousness_n even_o as_o david_n declare_v the_o blessedness_n of_o the_o man_n unto_o who_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n say_v bless_a be_v the_o man_n unto_o who_o the_o lord_n impute_v no_o sin_n we_o say_v that_o faith_n be_v impute_v to_o abraham_n for_o righteousness_n now_o it_o be_v not_o write_v for_o he_o only_o that_o it_o be_v impute_v unto_o he_o for_o righteousness_n but_o also_o for_o we_o to_o who_o it_o shall_v be_v impute_v for_o righteousness_n etc._n etc._n a_o three_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o no_o man_n can_v fulfil_v the_o law_n be_v because_o all_o have_v need_n to_o say_v forgive_v we_o our_o debt_n who_o more_o excellent_a among_o the_o old_a people_n say_v austin_n
