when_o they_o be_v separate_v from_o christ_n or_o else_o for_o dead_a and_o frail_a doctrine_n for_o it_o be_v a_o foul_a thing_n that_o they_o which_o have_v begin_v well_o shall_v not_o go_v

not_o loose_v it_o all_o now_o in_o a_o moment_n nay_o rather_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o upbraid_v they_o he_o ask_v if_o they_o will_v lose_v unto_o themselves_o so_o many_o notable_a onset_n which_o they_o have_v sustain_v for_o the_o faith_n for_o except_v the_o right_a faith_n have_v be_v deliver_v unto_o they_o of_o paul_n it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o rashness_n to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n for_o the_o defence_n of_o a_o ill_a cause_n but_o they_o have_v try_v that_o god_n be_v present_a with_o they_o in_o persecution_n he_o do_v therefore_o burden_n the_o false_a apostle_n with_o envy_n who_o spoil_v the_o galathian_o of_o such_o precious_a ornament_n but_o to_o mitigate_v bitterness_n he_o add_v if_o yet_o in_o vain_a to_o correct_v it_o whereby_o he_o raise_v up_o

the_o spirit_n for_o the_o order_n itself_o do_v show_v that_o it_o be_v a_o contrary_a reason_n from_o the_o former_a because_o he_o have_v but_o another_o reason_n or_o argument_n between_o they_o he_o warn_v they_o than_o that_o all_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n wherewith_o they_o excel_v be_v fruit_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o same_o that_o be_v preach_v among_o they_o with_o his_o mouth_n therefore_o they_o do_v spoil_v themselves_o of_o those_o gift_n when_o as_o they_o leave_v the_o gospel_n and_o do_v fly_v to_o another_o kind_n of_o doctrine_n again_o look_v how_o much_o they_o esteem_v those_o gift_n so_o much_o also_o ought_v they_o to_o regard_n with_o tooth_n and_o nail_n to_o retain_v the_o gospel_n to_o those_o kind_n of_o gift_n he_o join_v virtue_n that_o be_v to_o say_v miracle_n 6_o even_o as_o abraham_n believe_v god_n and_o it_o be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n 7_o know_v you_o therefore_o that_o they_o which_o be_v of_o faith_n those_o be_v the_o son_n of_o abraham_n 8_o for_o the_o scripture_n because_o it_o do_v foresee_v that_o god_n will_v justify_v the_o gentile_n by_o faith_n do_v afore_o show_v glad_a tiding_n to_o abraham_n say_v in_o thou_o shall_v all_o nation_n be_v bless_v 9_o therefore_o they_o which_o be_v of_o faith_n be_v bless_v with_o faithful_a abraham_n after_o that_o he_o have_v give_v they_o the_o overthrow_n by_o the_o thing_n themselves_o and_o by_o experience_n he_o pass_v to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n first_o of_o all_o he_o bring_v the_o example_n of_o abraham_n although_o at_o all_o time_n argument_n take_v from_o example_n be_v not_o so_o firm_a nevertheless_o this_o be_v most_o forcible_a be_v cause_n neither_o in_o the_o thing_n nor_o yet_o in_o the_o person_n be_v there_o any_o difference_n for_o there_o be_v not_o many_o way_n unto_o righteousness_n and_o therefore_o be_v abraham_n call_v the_o father_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a because_o he_o be_v a_o common_a example_n unto_o they_o all_o nay_o rather_o in_o his_o person_n there_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n how_o to_o obtain_v righteousness_n prescribe_v or_o set_v out_o unto_o us._n 6_o even_o as_o here_o must_v be_v understand_v these_o word_n but_o rather_o for_o when_o he_o have_v ask_v
be_v it_o that_o they_o unto_o who_o his_o marvellous_a virtue_n be_v manifest_a by_o their_o effect_n shall_v not_o do_v the_o like_a if_o only_o report_v suffice_v they_o why_o be_v not_o these_o content_n with_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o be_v say_v to_o have_v overthrow_v the_o faith_n not_o because_o faith_n of_o itself_o be_v able_a to_o be_v overthrow_v but_o because_o he_o destroy_v the_o same_o in_o weak_a person_n final_o the_o enterprise_n be_v more_o respect_v than_o the_o effect_n 24_o they_o do_v glorify_v this_o be_v a_o manifest_a token_n that_o his_o ministry_n be_v approve_v of_o all_o the_o church_n of_o jury_n and_o so_o approve_v that_o with_o great_a wonder_v and_o praise_n they_o acknowledge_v the_o great_a power_n of_o god_n so_o glaunce_o he_o nip_v
