2_o 4._o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n etc._n etc._n justify_v free_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d without_o any_o price_n without_o any_o

vindicate_a of_o free_a grace_n in_o point_n of_o justification_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o clear_v this_o proposition_n that_o nothing_o in_o ourselves_o be_v of_o any_o valuable_a consideration_n in_o point_n of_o justify_v we_o the_o papist_n say_v our_o work_n be_v but_o that_o be_v a_o opinion_n now_o dead_a among_o we_o and_o therefore_o let_v it_o lie_v other_o say_v our_o faith_n be_v what_o the_o papist_n attribute_v to_o work_n these_o upon_o the_o matter_n attribute_v the_o like_a to_o faith_n to_o to_o credere_fw-la they_o express_v themselves_o to_o this_o effect_n *_o in_o

before_o i._n e._n by_o accept_v faith_n for_o our_o righteousness_n in_o opposition_n hereunto_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v that_o as_o faith_n of_o itself_o have_v no_o such_o worth_n in_o

and_o too_o little_a to_o christ_n and_o that_o it_o derogate_v from_o free_a grace_n and_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o gospel_n way_n of_o justification_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o faith_n be_v a_o gospel_n condition_n without_o which_o we_o can_v be_v justify_v yet_o not_o a_o immediate_a condition_n the_o very_a performance_n whereof_o be_v our_o righteousness_n but_o such_o a_o remote_a conditio_fw-la as_o the_o performance_n thereof_o give_v we_o interest_n in_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n the_o lord_n our_o righteousness_n it_o be_v not_o a_o condition_n so_o as_o work_n be_v before_o the_o fall_n for_o the_o performance_n of_o work_n be_v that_o wherein_o righteousness_n before_o the_o fall_n be_v to_o consist_v formal_o if_o faith_n succeed_v work_n in_o such_o a_o

tribunal_n in_o the_o great_a day_n as_o adam_n if_o he_o have_v not_o fall_v may_v have_v plead_v his_o performance_n of_o work_n but_o this_o can_v be_v for_o 1._o when_o we_o appear_v before_o god_n judgement_n seat_n we_o must_v plead_v such_o a_o righteousness_n as_o will_v countervail_v and_o answer_v god_n justice_n we_o can_v be_v justify_v but_o by_o a_o righteousness_n that_o will_v

impute_v to_o we_o be_v such_o a_o perfect_a righteousness_n as_o will_v full_o answer_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n but_o for_o our_o faith_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v a_o perfect_a righteousness_n that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o perfect_a faith_n that_o be_v perfect_a to_o which_o nothing_o can_v be_v add_v but_o our_o best_a faith_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o addition_n and_o

in_o mercy_n though_o not_o approbation_n in_o justice_n and_o so_o pass_v for_o righteousness_n upon_o that_o account_n be_v to_o make_v god_n mercy_n shut_v out_o his_o justice_n whereas_o god_n great_a design_n be_v to_o manifest_v both_o those_o attribute_n in_o the_o justification_n of_o man_n not_o only_o though_o chief_o his_o mercy_n but_o likewise_o his_o justice_n this_o appear_v by_o

that_o place_n shall_v christ_n only_o obtain_v of_o god_n to_o accept_v of_o imperfect_a faith_n in_o stead_n of_o perfect_a righteousness_n how_o will_v there_o be_v any_o manifestation_n of_o

a_o righteousness_n which_o be_v imperfect_a but_o for_o a_o perfect_a righteousness_n which_o be_v not_o his_o own_o in_o this_o judgement_n there_o be_v both_o truth_n and_o mercy_n truth_n in_o that_o god_n esteem_v we_o perfect_o righteous_a for_o that_o righteousness_n which_o be_v every_o way_n perfect_a even_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n mercy_n in_o that_o he_o esteem_v we_o
