this_o sort_n of_o man_n the_o apostle_n saint_n james_n think_v it_o necessary_a to_o oppose_v himself_o 6_o so_o that_o saint_n james_n do_v not_o dispute_v against_o saint_n paul_n but_o for_o the_o right_a meaning_n of_o s._n paul_n against_o those_o that_o deprave_a and_o wrest_a his_o doctrine_n to_o a_o wrong_a sense_n paul_n so_o defend_v justification_n by_o faith_n without_o work_n as_o he_o deny_v not_o the_o necessary_a practice_n of_o they_o but_o only_o deny_v the_o power_n of_o justification_n unto_o they_o james_n so_o establish_v good_a work_n not_o as_o give_v they_o force_n to_o make_v a_o man_n acceptable_a and_o just_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n justice_n but_o only_o disable_n that_o faith_n from_o have_v any_o power_n to_o justify_v we_o which_o be_v not_o
