former_a part_n of_o the_o ten_o chapter_n now_o in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n the_o apostle_n clear_o show_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o substance_n of_o those_o thing_n whereof_o the_o

before_o god_n and_o cause_v we_o to_o be_v accept_v to_o life_n everlasting_a be_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o habit_n of_o inward_a righteousness_n or_o charity_n with_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o we_o deny_v the_o habit_n of_o righteousness_n or_o sanctification_n to_o be_v the_o thing_n by_o which_o in_o whole_a or_o in_o part_n we_o be_v to_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n either_o as_o satisfactory_a to_o justice_n or_o meritorious_a of_o reward_n and_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n alone_o without_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o law_n they_o object_n among_o many_o other_o argument_n that_o our_o way_n of_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o be_v the_o way_n to_o banish_v good_a work_n out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o open_v a_o gate_n for_o carnal_a liberty_n to_o which_o our_o divine_n usual_o answer_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o but_o not_o by_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o be_v alone_o that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o work_v by_o love_n and_o bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n and_o although_o we_o do_v not_o do_v good_a work_n to_o be_v justify_v by_o they_o as_o any_o part_n of_o our_o legal_a righteousness_n yet_o the_o practice_n of_o good_a work_n we_o hold_v most_o necessary_a for_o many_o other_o good_a reason_n but_o not_o intend_v to_o give_v any_o account_n of_o those_o many_o reason_n we_o assign_v let_v we_o consider_v what_o answer_n this_o doctrine_n in_o hand_n will_v afford_v save_v faith_n be_v to_o accept_v of_o and_o embrace_v christ_n for_o

ourselves_o such_o a_o salvation_n as_o scripture_n speak_v not_o of_o and_o then_o draw_v absurdity_n from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n by_o faith_n alone_o the_o absurdity_n will_v return_v upon_o the_o misapprehension_n of_o the_o objector_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v he_o believe_v in_o christ_n to_o be_v save_v from_o sin_n and_o not_o from_o wrath_n our_o adversary_n i_o suppose_v will_v not_o call_v that_o save_a faith_n and_o we_o have_v less_o cause_n to_o call_v that_o save_a faith_n that_o profess_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n to_o be_v save_v from_o wrath_n and_o not_o

that_o we_o shall_v be_v save_v from_o by_o believe_v but_o only_o that_o of_o suffer_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o sin_n their_o argument_n may_v seem_v to_o have_v the_o great_a strength_n although_o it_o will_v then_o be_v find_v too_o weak_a but_o when_o the_o soul_n look_v upon_o sin_n itself_o as_o the_o great_a enemy_n from_o which_o christ_n come_v to_o save_v his_o people_n and_o
