because_o they_o know_v he_o to_o be_v the_o christ._n so_o that_o this_o first_o exception_n be_v of_o no_o force_n since_o that_o what_o the_o devil_n profess_v to_o know_v the_o evangelist_n

it_o be_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o the_o qestion_n be_v not_o whither_o the_o devil_n shall_v or_o can_v be_v justify_v if_o they_o have_v that_o faith_n or_o act_n of_o faith_n whereby_o

which_o those_o have_v who_o have_v interest_n in_o christ_n and_o whereby_o they_o be_v justify_v and_o the_o force_n of_o the_o argument_n depend_v not_o upon_o the_o denial_n of_o the_o former_a

apostle_n 2_o cor._n 7._o 10._o where_o he_o say_v godly_a grief_n breed_v repentance_n unto_o salvation_n never_o to_o be_v repent_v of_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n or_o a_o

and_o to_o disproov_v this_o conceit_n a_o man_n shall_v reason_v in_o this_o manner_n that_o repentance_n which_o the_o devil_n themselves_o may_v have_v can_v be_v that_o wholesome_a and_o save_a

qestion_n here_o will_v not_o be_v whither_o the_o devil_n may_v be_v save_v if_o they_o can_v repent_v but_o whither_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o such_o a_o repentance_n as_o godly_a grief_n produce_v and_o work_v unto_o salvation_n in_o man_n and_o the_o stress_n of_o the_o argument_n will_v rest_v upon_o the_o denial_n not_o of_o the_o former_a but_o of_o the_o latter_a and_o in_o like_a manner_n be_v it_o here_o the_o pith_n of_o the_o argument_n consist_v not_o in_o this_o whither_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v justify_v or_o no_o if_o they_o have_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o man_n have_v whereby_o they_o be_v justify_v which_o be_v not_o affirm_v nor_o be_v at_o all_o qestioned_a but_o whither_o they_o have_v or_o can_v have_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o and_o whereby_o he_o affirm_v that_o man_n may_v be_v and_o be_v justify_v and_o this_o only_o be_v that_o that_o be_v here_o deny_v and_o true_o unto_o i_o it_o seem_v as_o
