and_o the_o not_o keep_v of_o the_o law_n be_v debt_n as_o in_o truth_n they_o be_v then_o as_o paul_n write_v to_o philemon_n concern_v onesimus_n let_v we_o in_o all_o humility_n of_o heart_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n set_v both_o on_o christ_n score_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o justification_n by_o which_o we_o be_v make_v righteous_a the_o manner_n how_o or_o by_o what_o mean_v it_o be_v apply_v follow_v and_o that_o be_v faith_n 3._o and_o faith_n only_o for_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o 6._o as_o by_o a_o instrumental_a cause_n for_o faith_n lay_v hold_v on_o the_o object_n matter_n of_o our_o justification_n christ_n and_o his_o obedience_n 10._o and_o so_o unite_n the_o believer_n to_o he_o he_o be_v justify_v though_o not_o by_o his_o own_o inherent_a and_o actual_a righteousness_n so_o that_o god_n the_o father_n accept_v of_o this_o satisfaction_n as_o if_o we_o in_o our_o own_o person_n have_v both_o for_o holiness_n of_o nature_n and_o perfection_n of_o obedience_n absolute_o answer_v and_o fulfil_v the_o law_n justice_n and_o from_o this_o that_o i_o have_v say_v we_o may_v gather_v these_o conclusion_n first_o that_o none_o be_v ever_o personal_o righteous_a but_o christ_n only_o for_o if_o his_o father_n will_v mark_v what_o be_v do_v amiss_o yet_o he_o be_v and_o be_v and_o ever_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o abide_v it_o for_o he_o be_v holy_a for_o nature_n and_o perfect_a for_o life_n again_o 9_o hence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o man_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o christ_n merit_n and_o all_o cause_n of_o boast_v be_v total_o exclude_v from_o mankind_n yea_o whatsoever_o papist_n babble_v the_o bless_a virgin_n herself_o so_o that_o the_o person_n for_o who_o light_n be_v sow_v be_v he_o that_o by_o faith_n apply_v christ_n and_o his_o obedience_n be_v offer_v by_o the_o father_n to_o himself_o in_o particular_a and_o three_o we_o may_v from_o this_o safe_o conclude_v that_o they_o who_o have_v no_o faith_n can_v be_v justify_v and_o consequent_o save_v for_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v faith_n to_o apply_v christ_n as_o a_o instrument_n ult._n for_o faith_n be_v as_o a_o hand_n to_o receive_v and_o put_v on_o the_o righteousness_n and_o merit_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n 4._o we_o be_v say_v to_o live_v by_o faith_n that_o be_v in_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n of_o life_n they_o therefore_o that_o have_v no_o faith_n 1._o be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n adam_n have_v life_n in_o himself_o at_o the_o creation_n now_o we_o have_v it_o out_o of_o ourselves_o from_o christ_n at_o our_o justification_n and_o last_o of_o all_o we_o may_v collect_v that_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n and_o matter_n of_o justification_n be_v not_o within_o we_o but_o without_o we_o and_o that_o we_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o the_o same_o else_o no_o salvation_n whence_o these_o three_o corollary_n follow_v first_o that_o sin_n before_o conversion_n can_v hinder_v man_n perfect_a justification_n let_v this_o be_v well_o obeserue_v second_o that_o good_a work_n after_o our_o effectual_a vocation_n do_v not_o further_o our_o justification_n before_o the_o lord_n they_o will_v help_v to_o assure_v we_o that_o our_o faith_n be_v sound_a and_o justify_v we_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n but_o no_o other_o way_n and_o last_o from_o this_o i_o also_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o great_a error_n who_o hold_v the_o bare_a act_n of_o faith_n without_o the_o application_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o obedience_n to_o justify_v we_o be_v say_v to_o live_v by_o our_o hand_n yet_o we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v mean_v by_o that_o we_o get_v by_o labour_n and_o travel_v for_o no_o man_n eat_v his_o finger_n so_o we_o may_v true_o be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v through_o faith_n but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v by_o what_o faith_n rest_v on_o and_o apply_v to_o the_o person_n and_o no_o otherwise_o this_o be_v the_o plain_a meaning_n and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o branch_n of_o my_o text_n and_o joy_n some_o expound_v the_o first_o part_n by_o the_o second_o and_o say_v that_o by_o light_n be_v mean_v joy_n and_o by_o just_a upright_o in_o heart_n but_o i_o rather_o understand_v that_o sanctification_n be_v mean_v in_o this_o clause_n for_o many_o be_v apt_a to_o say_v they_o have_v faith_n yet_o want_v holiness_n therefore_o the_o spirit_n will_v take_v away_o that_o false_a cavil_n again_o good_a and_o righteous_a person_n call_v the_o soundness_n of_o their_o faith_n sometime_o into_o question_n doubt_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o spiritual_a condition_n therefore_o to_o remove_v that_o scruple_n and_o to_o comfort_n and_o settle_v their_o waver_a mind_n the_o prophet_n annex_v as_o a_o help_n this_o other_o clause_n wherein_o be_v comprehend_v sanctification_n and_o usual_o in_o the_o holy_a book_n these_o two_o be_v couple_v together_o and_o they_o may_v not_o be_v put_v asunder_o 1._o cor._n 6._o 11._o now_o for_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o word_n some_o read_v joy_n other_o gladness_n the_o difference_n of_o these_o two_o i_o take_v to_o be_v this_o joy_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n secret_o hide_v and_o gladness_n may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o face_n or_o by_o some_o outward_a sign_n discern_v for_o where_o one_o evangelist_n write_v rejoice_v

matth._n 28._o 8._o upright_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o metaphor_n take_v from_o a_o pillar_n or_o thing_n that_o stand_v as_o we_o say_v bolt_n upright_o not_o incline_v more_o one_o way_n than_o another_o or_o some_o read_v it_o right_o or_o straight_o of_o heart_n that_o be_v in_o who_o thought_n intention_n and_o conversation_n be_v no_o guile_n like_o nathanaël_n or_o ezekiah_n and_o heart_n be_v add_v to_o show_v the_o true_a root_n of_o sincerity_n as_o also_o to_o condemn_v outward_a hypocrisy_n for_o some_o like_o the_o old_a pharisy_n be_v just_o outward_o but_o inward_o full_a of_o rottenness_n the_o heart_n be_v not_o upright_o what_o show_v soever_o they_o make_v of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n or_o it_o may_v be_v annex_v for_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o just_a that_o though_o they_o fail_v sometime_o in_o outward_a act_n yet_o it_o fall_v forth_o contrary_a to_o the_o intent_n and_o former_a purpose_n of_o their_o heart_n for_o the_o most_o faithful_a have_v his_o fail_n whatsoever_o his_o resolution_n have_v be_v to_o the_o contrary_n and_o now_o in_o few_o other_o word_n thus_o may_v we_o plain_o resolve_v these_o what_o if_o the_o faithful_a be_v afflict_v overwhelm_v with_o the_o wave_n of_o sorrow_n compass_a about_o with_o great_a and_o manifold_a evil_n drown_a in_o the_o depth_n of_o depth_n and_o well_o near_o swallow_v up_o of_o overmuch_o heaviness_n shall_v they_o not_o hear_v of_o glad_a tiding_n will_v not_o joy_n break_v out_o as_o light_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o all_o tear_n be_v wipe_v from_o their_o eye_n yes_o this_o be_v a_o eternal_a truth_n that_o all_z such_o as_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n sanctify_v have_v heart_n without_o guile_n by_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n though_o they_o sow_v in_o tear_n plough_n in_o pain_n and_o all_o their_o crop_n seem_v to_o be_v blast_v yet_o there_o be_v great_a blessing_n appoint_v by_o god_n for_o they_o which_o though_o for_o a_o season_n they_o be_v cover_v and_o hide_a like_o corn_n in_o the_o furrow_n they_o shall_v one_o day_n reap_v and_o receive_v in_o earth_n and_o heaven_n according_a to_o the_o sure_a promise_n of_o the_o

thou_o yet_o be_v not_o of_o this_o number_n we_o will_v give_v some_o true_a trial_n and_o note_n of_o upright_o and_o just_a man_n man_n first_o a_o upright_a man_n look_v backward_o and_o forward_o

he_o will_v restore_v to_o the_o uttermost_a farthing_n and_o will_v not_o fail_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o invocate_v the_o lord_n that_o he_o who_o by_o he_o have_v be_v injure_v may_v some_o

beyond_o many_o and_o will_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o many_o for_o he_o so_o will_v not_o they_o make_v restitution_n and_o for_o time_n to_o come_v he_o will_v do_v to_o his_o brother_n as_o he_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o always_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n with_o every_o person_n in_o every_o action_n we_o have_v some_o that_o turn_v to_o their_o former_a course_n when_o as_o they_o have_v acknowledge_v their_o sin_n and_o make_v their_o neighbour_n satisfaction_n as_o the_o thief_n that_o when_o the_o sore_n be_v wear_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n and_o the_o

of_o his_o carriage_n towards_o man_n now_o follow_v trial_n or_o sign_n of_o his_o justice_n towards_o god_n first_o he_o will_v true_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n mercy_n he_o be_v not_o
