own_o righteousness_n like_o that_o the_o apostle_n call_v his_o gain_n before_o he_o know_v christ_n but_o then_o for_o holy_a duty_n or_o work_n that_o be_v perform_v which_o flow_v from_o a_o principle_n of_o renew_v grace_n this_o say_v the_o papist_n be_v not_o our_o own_o righteousness_n for_o the_o clear_n this_o point_n all_o your_o work_n that_o flow_v from_o sanctify_a grace_n in_o conformity_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n all_o these_o come_v under_o the_o name_n of_o our_o own_o righteousness_n not_o because_o it_o be_v of_o ourselves_o efficient_o but_o it_o be_v we_o subjective_o inherent_a in_o we_o as_o adam_n righteousness_n his_o own_o though_o it_o come_v from_o a_o inward_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n give_v he_o of_o god_n be_v not_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o love_n joy_n temperance_n be_v they_o not_o our_o own_o they_o be_v our_o own_o or_o god_n if_o our_o own_o than_o i_o have_v the_o point_n if_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n than_o you_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n impute_v which_o be_v the_o great_a error_n in_o divinity_n if_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o text_n have_v say_v not_o my_o own_o righteousness_n but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n which_o be_v by_o repentance_n love_n hope_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n holy_a duty_n than_o the_o apostle_n have_v carry_v it_o clear_a against_o we_o but_o he_o bring_v nothing_o that_o we_o have_v to_o join_v in_o concurrence_n to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n but_o only_a faith_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n leave_v all_o our_o inherent_a grace_n and_o the_o work_n that_o issue_v from_o they_o in_o this_o text_n to_o come_v under_o the_o name_n of_o our_o own_o righteousness_n as_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n that_o be_v personal_o in_o gild_n be_v likewise_o we_o so_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v subjective_o in_o christ_n and_o by_o imputation_n we_o consider_v then_o all_o those_o work_n that_o proceed_v from_o sanctify_a grace_n in_o you_o in_o order_n to_o conformity_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n they_o may_v all_o come_v

by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n mark_v the_o scripture_n rom._n 3.21_o ch_n 4.6_o christ_n pull_v down_o the_o righteousness_n of_o yourselves_o which_o have_v the_o chair_n before_o the_o

but_o as_o i_o may_v say_v from_o her_o rul_a so_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n when_o you_o come_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n do_v not_o abolish_v holiness_n and_o sanctification_n for_o
