have_v a_o necessity_n depend_v of_o good_a work_n as_o necessary_o as_o the_o soul_n to_o the_o body_n and_o the_o fruit_n to_o the_o tree_n and_o that_o this_o faith_n declare_v itself_o to_o be_v plentiful_a in_o good_a action_n the_o fruit_n of_o a_o live_a faith_n we_o may_v then_o with_o saint_n james_n conclude_v against_o they_o for_o he_o do_v not_o as_o they_o do_v disinable_a all_o faith_n in_o the_o work_n of_o justification_n but_o only_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v dead_a note_n note_n and_o without_o work_n so_o both_o opinion_n imply_v a_o necessity_n of_o work_n the_o one_o as_o the_o cause_n of_o justification_n and_o the_o other_o as_o a_o effect_n in_o they_o justify_v it_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v large_a in_o number_v authority_n and_o in_o report_v such_o
