christ_n through_o faith_n after_o that_o god_o by_o the_o same_o have_v justify_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n he_o do_v also_o sanctify_v we_o communicate_v

may_v not_o be_v take_v for_o cause_n by_o the_o which_o or_o by_o who_o mean_a we_o obtain_v salvation_n but_o only_o so_o far_o as_o they_o can_v be_v separate_v from_o true_a faith_n d_o by_o the_o which_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o it_o p._n it_o be_v even_o so_o m._n thou_o have_v here_o open_v unto_o i_o one_o point_n that_o be_v very_o hard_a to_o understand_v the_o which_o seem_v to_o

work_n of_o vivification_n and_o sanctification_n that_o third_o work_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o say_v that_o god_n have_v declare_v himself_o unto_o man_n ma._n expound_v the_o same_o to_o i_o

once_o bear_v we_o be_v bear_v yet_o again_o mathewe_n i_o see_v well_o that_o the_o word_n of_o regeneration_n import_v even_o so_o peter_n and_o therefore_o it_o import_v forthwith_o a_o

mathewe_n what_o mean_v thou_o by_o that_o resurrection_n of_o the_o spirit_n peter_n see_v that_o thorough_a sin_n man_n be_v dead_a of_o spiritual_a death_n which_o bring_v afterward_o death_n of_o the_o body_n he_o be_v as_o it_o be_v rise_v from_o that_o death_n when_o by_o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v in_o such_o sort_n deliver_v from_o sin_n that_o he_o be_v by_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o

put_v then_o so_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o man_n which_o abide_v still_o in_o his_o first_o nature_n corrupt_v through_o sin_n and_o he_o which_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o same_o

as_o the_o spiritual_a death_n be_v much_o more_o worthy_a to_o be_v call_v death_n than_o be_v the_o corporal_a death_n and_o that_o the_o estate_n of_o the_o man_n dead_a through_o sin_n be_v much_o more_o perilous_a and_o dangerous_a than_o be_v the_o estate_n of_o the_o man_n which_o be_v dead_a but_o bodily_a of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o regenerate_v man._n m._n see_v that_o man_n be_v as_o it_o be_v rise_v from_o death_n and_o bear_v a_o new_a when_o he_o be_v regenerate_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o follow_v then_o necessary_o that_o he_o do_v other_o work_n after_o that_o he_o be_v regenerate_v than_o he_o do_v before_o his_o regeneration_n p._n thou_o may_v well_o understand_v that_o if_o there_o be_v so_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o man_n regenerate_v &_o the_o not_o regenerate_v as_o be_v between_o a_o dead_a and_o a_o live_a man_n it_o must_v also_o necessary_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o there_o be_v as_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o work_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o ●_o m._n i_o do_v even_o so_o understand_v it_o p._n and_o therefore_o jesus_n chryst_n have_v say_v that_o what_o be_v bear_v of_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n and_o what_o be_v

work_n of_o life_n because_o of_o the_o live_a soul_n that_o he_o have_v more_o than_o have_v the_o dead_a body_n m._n it_o follow_v then_o that_o the_o faith_n whereby_o man_n be_v vivify_v and_o regenerate_v be_v unto_o he_o as_o the_o soul_n which_o bring_v to_o he_o spiritual_a life_n and_o that_o the_o unfaithful_a and_o not_o regenerate_v man_n be_v as_o a_o body_n without_o a_o soul_n b_o p._n s._n paul_n follow_v the_o prophet_n abacuk_n give_v thou_o plain_o to_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v so_o by_o that_o which_o he_o say_v the_o just_a man_n shall_v live_v of_o his_o faith_n wherefore_o if_o the_o just_a man_n do_v live_v of_o his_o faith_n it_o follow_v then_o that_o faith_n be_v to_o his_o soul_n to_o give_v it_o spiritual_a life_n that_o which_o the_o natural_a soul_n

the_o worker_n which_o work_v evil_a mathewe_n thou_o will_v then_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v suffer_v for_o we_o not_o only_o in_o body_n but_o also_o in_o soul_n peter_n he_o have_v right_a well_o declare_v it_o when_o he_o say_v my_o soul_n be_v heavy_a c._n even_o to_o death_n and_o when_o he_o do_v sweat_v blood_n in_o great_a abundance_n even_o

of_o god_n in_o the_o same_o chief_o which_o the_o body_n can_v not_o apprehend_v but_o in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o feel_v of_o it_o be_v come_v to_o it_o by_o the_o mean_a of_o the_o soul_n matthew_n the_o passage_n which_o thou_o haste_v even_o now_o allege_v seem_v to_o i_o very_o clear_a and_o plain_a against_o those_o which_o esteem_n the_o godhead_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v in_o
