away_o with_o reason_n faith_n which_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o faith_n which_o also_o in_o tentation_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n lean_v not_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n for_o thereof_o it_o be_v utter_o ignorant_a but_o to_o her_o own_o righteousness_n or_o at_o least_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n now_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o law_n and_o reason_n join_v together_o faith_n

herein_o as_o if_o thou_o have_v never_o hear_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o law_n but_o ascend_v up_o to_o the_o glass_n
of_o faith_n where_o neither_o the_o law_n nor_o reason_n do_v shine_v but_o only_o the_o light_n of_o faith_n which_o assure_v we_o that_o we_o be_v save_v by_o christ_n alone_o without_o any_o law_n thus_o the_o gospel_n lead_v we_o beyond_o and_o above_o the_o light_n of_o the_o law_n and_o reason_n into_o the_o inward_a and_o deep_a secret_n of_o faith_n where_o the_o law_n and_o reason_n

peter_n for_o no_o light_a matter_n but_o for_o the_o chief_a article_n of_o all_o christian_a doctrine_n which_o by_o peter_n dissimulation_n be_v in_o great_a danger_n for_o barnabas_n and_o the_o other_o jew_n dissemble_v together_o with_o he_o which_o do_v all_o offend_v not_o through_o ignorance_n or_o malice_n but_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o jew_n whereby_o their_o heart_n be_v so_o blind_v that_o they_o do_v not_o see_v their_o sin_n and_o certain_o it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v marvel_v that_o such_o excellent_a man_n as_o peter_n barnabas_n and_o other_o shall_v so_o sudden_o and_o so_o

their_o own_o offence_n nay_o they_o rather_o think_v that_o they_o do_v well_o in_o bear_v with_o the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o weak_a jew_n wherefore_o it_o be_v very_o necessary_a that_o paul_n

the_o gospel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o swerve_v from_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n that_o peter_n shall_v be_v accuse_v of_o paul_n as_o one_o that_o be_v

from_o the_o other_o be_v to_o place_v the_o gospel_n in_o heaven_n and_o the_o law_n on_o the_o earth_n to_o call_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o gospel_n heavenly_a and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n earthly_a and_o to_o put_v as_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o the_o law_n as_o god_n have_v make_v between_o heaven_n and_o

let_v we_o utter_o exclude_v the_o law_n and_o leave_v it_o on_o the_o earth_n but_o if_o we_o have_v to_o do_v with_o work_n then_o let_v we_o lighten_v the_o lantern_n of_o work_n and_o of_o the_o
