A97227	Vnbeleevers no subjects of iustification, nor of mystical vnion to Christ, being the sum of a sermon preached at New Sarum, with a vindication of it from the objections, and calumniations cast upon it by Mr. William Eyre, in his Vindiciæ justificationis. Together with animadversions upon the said book, and a refutation of that anti-sidian, and anti-evangelical errour asserted therein: viz. the justification of infidels, or the justification of a sinner before, and without faith. Wherein also the conditional necessity, and instrumentality of faith unto justification, together with the consistency of it, with the freness of Gods grace, is explained, confirmed, and vindicated from the exceptions of the said Mr. Eyre, his arguments answertd [sic], his authorities examined, and brought in against himself. By T. Warren minister of the Gospel at Houghton in Hampshire.	Warren, Thomas, 1616 or 17-1694.	1654 (1654)	Wing W980; Thomason E733_10; ESTC R206901	226,180	282

world_n will_v receive_v a_o satisfactory_a answer_n the_o argument_n yet_o unanswered_a be_v this_o if_o a_o man_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n give_v he_o before_o he_o believe_v than_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v justify_v before_o he_o do_v believe_v because_o than_o he_o be_v in_o covenant_n before_o he_o believe_v and_o he_o that_o be_v in_o covenant_n be_v justify_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o by_o concession_n willing_o acknowledge_v faith_n to_o be_v the_o spirit_n work_v and_o that_o no_o man_n can_v believe_v without_o the_o help_n of_o the_o spirit_n work_v faith_n second_o i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n that_o although_o the_o spirit_n work_v faith_n before_o we_o can_v believe_v yet_o do_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v before_o believe_v and_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o consequence_n i_o deny_v also_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o he_o be_v in_o covenant_n before_o believe_a for_o there_o be_v no_o distance_n of_o time_n between_o the_o give_v of_o the_o spirit_n our_o believe_a and_o be_v justify_v and_o in_o covenant_n or_o be_v pass_v from_o the_o state_n of_o death_n into_o a_o state_n of_o salvation_n because_o there_o be_v a_o

the_o spirit_n but_o the_o elect_n and_o what_o other_o have_v be_v not_o a_o true_a save_a work_n now_o because_o no_o work_n before_o faith_n be_v true_o save_v and_o have_v a_o necessary_a
