unto_o who_o obedience_n be_v to_o be_v give_v by_o work_n when_o we_o behold_v ourselves_o consider_n our_o own_o corruption_n we_o be_v admonish_v that_o we_o ourselves_o do_v not_o imagine_v work_n by_o which_o we_o think_v to_o worship_v god_n for_o by_o ourselves_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o either_o please_v or_o displease_v god_n and_o the_o lord_n pronounce_v that_o he_o be_v

of_o they_o do_v not_o please_v god_n it_o be_v fit_o therefore_o demand_v how_o good_a work_n may_v please_v to_o the_o which_o question_n we_o answer_v in_o general_a that_o they_o please_v in_o the_o regenerate_a the_o work_n of_o scipio_n do_v not_o please_v because_o he_o be_v not_o regenerate_v but_o the_o warfare_n of_o david_n do_v please_v because_o david_n be_v accept_v by_o faith_n but_o here_o be_v three_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o order_n first_o we_o must_v certain_o think_v concern_v the_o person_n that_o he_o be_v reconcile_v by_o faith_n and_o just_a for_o christ_n

of_o the_o heart_n that_o god_n will_v not_o impute_v unto_o we_o this_o filthiness_n wherein_o we_o be_v wrap_v three_o although_o we_o acknowledge_v this_o our_o filthiness_n notwithstanding_o we_o must_v certain_o think_v that_o god_n do_v require_v a_o certain_a unperfect_a obedience_n in_o we_o &_o that_o this_o unperfect_a obedience_n do_v please_v for_o christ_n sake_n for_o so_o peter_n

obedience_n therefore_o do_v not_o please_v god_n for_o the_o worthiness_n or_o perfection_n thereof_o for_o by_o itself_o it_o be_v unworthy_a to_o come_v into_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v it_o fulfil_v the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v say_v but_o it_o please_v because_o of_o the_o person_n reconcile_v which_o for_o christ_n sake_n be_v count_v righteous_a so_o also_o do_v he_o please_v
