god_n the_o father_n whereby_o we_o fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o man_n by_o grace_n fulfil_v the_o law_n do_v merit_n their_o salvation_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o grace_n can_v be_v give_v we_o but_o by_o faith_n in_o the_o death_n &_o merit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n therefore_o we_o say_v that_o by_o grace_n infuse_v into_o we_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n good_a work_n be_v wrought_v which_o be_v not_o now_o our_o work_n but_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n and_o those_o work_n merit_v salvation_n who_o be_v able_a to_o overthrow_v this_o bulwark_n build_v upon_o so_o sure_a a_o rock_n which_o be_v so_o profound_a be_v not_o possible_a for_o a_o man_n to_o undermine_v the_o depth_n nor_o come_v near_o the_o top_n thereof_o be_v so_o high_a but_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n will_v with_o the_o

speak_v to_o say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o our_o work_n for_o although_o that_o by_o grace_n we_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n who_o by_o his_o mighty_a power_n mighty_o stir_v up_o our_o heart_n replenish_v with_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n to_o work_v such_o charitable_a work_n as_o be_v prescribe_v in_o god_n book_n though_o yet_o unperfect_o perform_v on_o our_o part_n yet_o can_v it_o not_o be_v say_v but_o that_o they_o be_v our_o work_n even_o as_o faith_n be_v say_v to_o be_v our_o faith_n which_o we_o receive_v by_o grace_n as_o for_o example_n who_o will_v doubt_n of_o the_o woman_n which_o be_v disease_v with_o 25._o a_o issue_n of_o blood_n twelve_o year_n have_v a_o strong_a faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n but_o that_o she_o have_v the_o same_o by_o

who_o say_v it_o be_v god_n that_o work_v in_o you_o both_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n even_o of_o his_o good_a pleasure_n and_o 13._o that_o we_o can_v not_o have_v obtain_v grace_n from_o god_n

this_o that_o be_v say_v be_v grant_v yet_o that_o by_o fulfil_v of_o the_o law_n by_o the_o same_o grace_n we_o merit_v salvation_n that_o be_v utter_o false_a and_o repugnant_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o saint_n john_n say_v behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n be_v 36_o take_v away_o what_o follow_v

of_o grace_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n but_o behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n then_o it_o be_v only_a christ_n that_o merit_v heaven_n for_o we_o by_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o not_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n nor_o our_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n and_o why_o be_v he_o call_v a_o lamb_n because_o of_o his_o

god_n the_o father_n behold_v they_o no_o more_o as_o sinner_n to_o damnation_n but_o as_o christ_n jesus_n because_o christ_n have_v washéd_v clean_o away_o in_o god_n judgement_n all_o the_o filth_n

plain_a word_n of_o christ_n how_o he_o overthrow_v all_o the_o work_n of_o man_n as_o meritorious_a to_o deserve_v any_o thanks_n from_o god_n he_o say_v playnelye_o to_o all_o the_o world_n aswell_o as_o to_o his_o apostle_n when_o you_o have_v do_v all_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v command_v you_o yet_o say_v you_o be_v unprofitable_a servant_n and_o deserve_v nothing_o for_o that_o which_o we_o do_v be_v but_o our_o bind_a duty_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n upon_o pain_n of_o damnation_n as_o if_o a_o master_n command_v his_o servant_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n and_o the_o servant_n do_v not_o that_o which_o he_o be_v command_v to_o do_v do_v not_o the_o master_n lay_v he_o on_o with_o stripe_n then_o must_v the_o do_v of_o his_o master_n commandment_n be_v

according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n he_o that_o know_v his_o master_n will_v and_o do_v it_o not_o shall_v be_v 47_o beat_v with_o many_o stripe_n now_o not_o that_o the_o

merit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o so_o stand_v it_o with_o we_o towards_o god_n yea_o much_o more_o for_o no_o earthly_a master_n can_v ever_o do_v for_o his_o servant_n that_o our_o

unprofitable_a servant_n and_o deserve_v nothing_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o behold_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o lord_n what_o person_n he_o have_v choose_v by_o who_o to_o make_v this_o similitude_n touch_v this_o matter_n a_o ploughman_n a_o servant_n plough_v or_o serve_v his_o cattle_n which_o kind_n of_o people_n of_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n best_a deserve_v their_o hire_n and_o yet_o unprofitable_a servant_n &_o deserve_v nothing_o for_o the_o lord_n say_v do_v he_o thank_v that_o servant_n because_o he_o do_v that_o which_o be_v command_v unto_o he_o i_o trow_v not_o here_o be_v a_o question_n demand_v by_o the_o lord_n whether_o thanks_o be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o a_o servant_n that_o do_v his_o master_n commandment_n the_o lord_n make_v the_o answer_n himself_o say_v i_o trow_v not_o then_o be_v it_o thus_o much_o to_o say_v if_o a_o temporal_a master_n be_v not_o to_o geve_v thank_n unto_o his_o servant_n for_o do_v his_o commandment_n much_o less_o our_o

heaven_n by_o his_o good_a work_n nor_o deserve_v thanks_n for_o the_o same_o and_o thus_o have_v the_o lord_n himself_o overthrow_v the_o popish_a error_n of_o merit_a heaven_n by_o work_n do_v after_o grace_n and_o now_o for_o final_a conclusion_n if_o to_o much_o obstinate_a wilfulness_n do_v not_o remain_v within_o the_o breast_n of_o the_o adversary_n &_o that_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o utter_o cast_v they_o of_o as_o reprobate_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a but_o that_o these_o word_n so_o plain_o set_v down_o and_o write_v with_o the_o pen_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o the_o

than_o the_o best_a that_o live_v be_v able_a to_o do_v that_o yet_o they_o shall_v do_v no_o more_o but_o that_o which_o in_o duty_n they_o ought_v and_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v no_o doubt_n but_o as_o the_o lord_n be_v altogether_o merciful_a so_o will_v he_o in_o mercy_n receive_v they_o and_o bring_v they_o into_o his_o fold_n even_o upon_o his_o shoulder_n as_o he_o do_v the_o stray_a sheep_n

his_o word_n be_v plain_a enough_o to_o overthrow_v your_o justification_n by_o work_n wrought_v by_o grace_n and_o saint_n paul_n speak_v plain_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n jew_n and_o gentile_a of_o the_o whole_a law_n of_o moses_n as_o well_o moral_a as_o ceremonial_a that_o it_o justifi_v not_o before_o god_n and_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o bildad_o in_o the_o 25._o chapter_n of_o jobe_n be_v
