in_o those_o ceremony_n the_o true_a messiah_n and_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o since_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o our_o forefather_n be_v justify_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n it_o be_v

former_a sermon_n by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n say_v he_o shall_v no_o flesh_n be_v justify_v but_o if_o we_o beat_v out_o and_o examine_v 3_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o faith_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o both_o be_v and_o have_v be_v do_v by_o faithful_a and_o just_a man_n whereupon_o it_o be_v manifest_v that_o justification_n do_v always_o go_v before_o the_o work_n of_o

the_o remnant_n and_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v remain_v behind_o and_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o christ_n suffer_v for_o we_o leave_v behind_o he_o a_o example_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v

free_a gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o in_o that_o sense_n do_v paul_n use_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n when_o he_o affirm_v that_o faith_n do_v justify_v but_o in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o thirteen_o chapter_n to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o do_v not_o so_o take_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n but_o put_v it_o for_o the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o that_o

this_o more_o manifest_a in_o true_a faith_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v reconciliation_n and_o obedience_n reconciliation_n because_o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v and_o very_o

that_o faith_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o justify_n and_o the_o obey_v faith_n of_o the_o justify_n faith_n saint_n paul_n make_v mention_v where_o he_o say_v be_v justify_v by_o say_v we_o have_v

to_o who_o you_o give_v yourselves_o as_o servant_n to_o obey_v his_o servant_n you_o be_v to_o who_o you_o do_v obey_v whether_o it_o be_v of_o sin_n unto_o death_n or_o of_o obedience_n unto_o

you_o to_o eternal_a life_n and_o not_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n which_o turn_v unto_o death_n now_o therefore_o justification_n be_v proper_o attribute_v to_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n
