right_o well_o and_o holy_o for_o very_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o that_o doctrine_n be_v full_a and_o in_o all_o point_n perfect_a to_o which_o nothing_o ought_v either_o to_o be_v add_v or_o

what_o be_v he_o therefore_o that_o do_v not_o confess_v that_o all_o point_n of_o true_a piety_n be_v teach_v we_o in_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n furthermore_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v that_o to_o

if_o the_o volume_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v add_v there_o unto_o i_o be_o not_o so_o ignorant_a but_o that_o i_o know_v that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n both_o do_v write_v and_o speak_v many_o

perfect_a for_o john_n the_o apostle_n and_o evangelist_n do_v free_o confess_v that_o the_o lord_n do_v many_o other_o thing_n also_o which_o be_v not_o write_v in_o his_o book_n but_o immediate_o

do_v more_o plain_o say_v thou_o lord_n shall_v ordain_v peace_n for_o even_o thou_o haste_v wrought_v all_o our_o work_n in_o us._n in_o the_o gospel_n after_o saint_n john_n our_o saviour_n say_v he_o that_o work_v verity_n come_v to_o the_o light_n that_o his_o work_n may_v be_v see_v because_o they_o be_v wrought_v by_o god._n and_o again_o whosoever_o abide_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o he_o he_o bring_v forth_o much_o fruit_n for_o without_o i_o you_o can_v do_v nothing_o paul_n also_o to_o the_o philippian_n say_v to_o you_o it_o be_v give_v for_o christ_n not_o only_o to_o believe_v in_o he_o but_o also_o to_o suffer_v for_o he_o and_o yet_o again_o more_o plain_o it_o be_v god_n that_o work_v in_o you_o both_o to_o will_v and_o to_o do_v accord_v to_o the_o good_a purpose_n of_o the_o mind_n likewise_o also_o saint_n james_n say_v every_o good_a give_v and_o every_o perfect_v gift_n be_v from_o above_o and_o come_v from_o the_o father_n of_o light_n moreover_o saint_n peter_n ascribe_v all_o the_o part_n of_o good_a work_v so_o god_n death_n say_v the_o god_n of_o all_o grace_n who_o have_v call_v you_o to_o his_o eternal_a glory_n through_o christ_n jesus_n restore_v uphold_v strengthen_v and_o establish_v you_o for_o we_o be_v not_o able_a as_o paul_n in_o a_o other_o place_n say_v of_o ourselves_o to_o think_v any_o thing_n as_o of_o ourselves_o but_o all_o our_o ability_n be_v of_o god._n therefore_o god_n alone_o remain_v still_o the_o only_a wellspring_n of_o all_o good_a work_n from_o who_o as_o from_o a_o spring_n head_n good_a work_n do_v flow_v into_o the_o saint_n as_o into_o sundry_a stream_n and_o channel_n ãâ¦ã_o yet_o here_o by_o the_o way_n this_o must_v be_v add_v that_o good_a work_v although_o they_o do_v in_o deed_n proceed_v from_o god_n and_o be_v in_o very_o true_a and_o proper_a phrase_n of_o
the_o remnant_n and_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v remain_v behind_o and_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o christ_n suffer_v for_o we_o leave_v behind_o he_o a_o example_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v follow_v his_o trace_n and_o footstep_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v that_o he_o by_o suffer_v fulfil_v the_o remnant_n which_o be_v behind_o after_o this_o again_o they_o allege_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n where_o objection_n he_o say_v if_o i_o have_v all_o faith_n so_o that_o i_o can_v remove_v mountain_n out_o of_o their_o place_n and_o yet_o have_v not_o charity_n i_o be_o nothing_o for_o upon_o this_o they_o infer_v therefore_o not_o faith_n only_o but_o also_o charity_n yea_o rather_o charity_n than_o faith_n do_v justify_v but_o we_o say_v that_o paul_n in_o this_o sentence_n do_v neither_o deny_v that_o faith_n alone_o do_v justify_v nor_o yet_o do_v attribute_v the_o justification_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o charity_n for_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n or_o when_o we_o make_v faith_n the_o cause_n of_o justification_n which_o thing_n must_v be_v by_o often_o repetition_n beat_v into_o our_o memory_n we_o do_v not_o understand_v that_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v a_o virtue_n in_o we_o do_v work_v and_o by_o the_o quality_n that_o stick_v to_o we_o do_v merit_n righteousness_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o so_o often_o as_o we_o make_v mention_n of_o faith_n we_o understand_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n exhibit_v in_o christ_n which_o be_v through_o faith_n free_o apply_v to_o we_o and_o receive_v as_o the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o in_o that_o sense_n do_v paul_n use_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n when_o he_o affirm_v that_o faith_n do_v justify_v but_o in_o this_o place_n of_o the_o thirteen_o chapter_n to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o do_v not_o so_o take_v the_o name_n of_o faith_n but_o put_v it_o for_o the_o power_n of_o work_a miracle_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o that_o which_o follow_v where_o he_o say_v so_o that_o i_o can_v remove_v mountain_n that_o faith_n do_v not_o comprehend_v christ_n whole_o but_o only_o the_o power_n in_o show_v of_o miracle_n and_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v sometime_o in_o a_o unjust_a man_n and_o a_o hypocrite_n as_o it_o be_v in_o judas_n iscariot_n to_o who_o the_o faith_n of_o miracle_n profit_v nothing_o because_o he_o be_v without_o the_o justify_n faith_n which_o faith_n be_v never_o without_o but_o of_o itself_o engender_v charity_n again_o whereas_o they_o object_v that_o say_n out_o of_o the_o gospel_n of_o saint_n john_n whosoever_o know_v my_o commandment_n and_o keep_v they_o he_o it_o be_v that_o love_v i_o and_o my_o father_n will_v love_v he_o and_o we_o will_v come_v to_o he_o and_o make_v our_o

a_o free_a gift_n therefore_o we_o be_v join_v to_o god_n by_o mere_a and_o free_a grace_n it_o follow_v in_o john_n and_o we_o have_v see_v and_o do_v testify_v that_o the_o father_n have_v send_v

these_o wrangler_n who_o will_v never_o be_v without_o store_n of_o such_o sophistical_a shift_n we_o do_v again_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_a argument_n to_o show_v you_o how_o and_o in_o what_o sense_n life_n and_o justification_n be_v attribute_v to_o work_n they_o that_o be_v well_o exercise_v in_o the_o read_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o ãâ¦ã_o they_o may_v reconcile_v the_o place_n of_o scripture_n that_o seem_v at_o a_o blush_v to_o be_v at_o discord_n do_v teach_v that_o faith_n &_o work_v in_o very_a deed_n be_v not_o separate_v one_o from_o another_o for_o the_o

in_o all_o thing_n to_o do_v service_n to_o god_o his_o maker_n therefore_o for_o the_o unseparable_a knot_n betwixt_o faith_n and_o good_a work_n which_o always_o keep_v company_n and_o attend_v upon_o faith_n we_o say_v that_o justification_n be_v sometime_o somewhat_o unproper_o attribute_v to_o work_n which_o be_v somewhat_o more_o proper_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n but_o most_o

this_o more_o manifest_a in_o true_a faith_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v reconciliation_n and_o obedience_n reconciliation_n because_o by_o faith_n we_o understand_v and_o very_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o for_o christ_n his_o sake_n by_o who_o we_o be_v adopt_v into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o obedience_n because_o they_o that_o be_v reconcile_v do_v whole_o yield_v themselves_o to_o he_o to_o who_o they_o be_v reconcile_v with_o earnest_a desire_n and_o zeal_n to_o do_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n so_o then_o we_o say_v that_o faith_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o justify_n and_o the_o obey_v faith_n of_o the_o justify_n faith_n saint_n paul_n make_v mention_v where_o he_o say_v be_v justify_v by_o say_v we_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n through_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o we_o be_v reconcile_v again_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o the_o obey_a faith_n where_o he_o say_v know_v you_o not_o that_o to_o who_o you_o give_v yourselves_o as_o servant_n to_o obey_v his_o servant_n you_o be_v to_o who_o you_o do_v obey_v whether_o it_o be_v of_o sin_n unto_o death_n or_o of_o obedience_n unto_o righteousness_n that_o be_v to_o say_v which_o obedience_n make_v you_o to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v righteous_a and_o to_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n which_o shall_v turn_v to_o you_o to_o eternal_a life_n and_o not_o the_o servant_n of_o sin_n which_o turn_v unto_o death_n now_o therefore_o justification_n be_v proper_o attribute_v to_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o be_v improper_o ascribe_v to_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n or_o righteousness_n of_o obedience_n for_o the_o obey_a righteousness_n be_v of_o the_o reconcile_n and_o without_o the_o reconcile_a righteousness_n obedience_n shall_v not_o be_v call_v righteousness_n to_o which_o this_o also_o be_v to_o be_v add_v that_o they_o which_o be_v justify_v do_v not_o put_v

i_o will_v here_o annex_v the_o most_o proper_a work_n of_o faith_n be_v purification_n and_o sanctification_n for_o saint_n peter_n do_v express_o say_v that_o by_o faith_n our_o heart_n be_v

1_o jesus_n for_o again_o the_o same_o s._n peter_n say_v you_o know_v that_o you_o be_v redeem_v not_o with_o transitory_a thing_n as_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o with_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o christ_n as_o of_o a_o unspotted_a lamb_n saint_n paul_n say_v you_o be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n through_o the_o oblation_n of_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n once_o make_v

from_o all_o sin_n therefore_o the_o most_o proper_a phrase_n of_o speech_n be_v to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v through_o faith_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o say_v i_o sanctify_v
