other_o of_o our_o virtue_n or_o work_n proper_o do_v therefore_o scripture_n use_v to_o say_v that_o faith_n without_o work_n do_v justify_v ibid._n all_o the_o father_n martyr_n and_o other_o holy_a man_n who_o st._n paul_n speak_v of_o heb._n 11._o have_v their_o faith_n sure_o fix_v in_o god_n when_o all_o the_o world_n be_v against_o they_o they_o do_v not_o only_o know_v god_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n maker_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o also_o they_o have_v a_o special_a confidence_n and_o trust_n that_o he_o be_v and_o will_v be_v their_o god_n their_o comforter_n aider_n helper_n maintainer_n and_o defender_n this_o be_v the_o christian_a faith_n which_o these_o holy_a man_n have_v and_o we_o also_o ought_v to_o have_v and_o although_o they_o be_v not_o name_v christian-man_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o christian-faith_n that_o they_o have_v for_o they_o look_v for_o all_o benefit_n of_o god_n the_o father_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o now_o do_v this_o difference_n be_v between_o they_o and_o we_o that_o they_o look_v when_o christ_n shall_v come_v and_o we_o be_v in_o the_o time_n when_o he_o be_v come_v therefore_o say_v st._n aug._n the_o time_n be_v alter_v and_o change_v but_o not_o the_o faith_n for_o we_o have_v both_o one_o faith_n in_o one_o christ_n the_o same_o holy_a ghost_n also_o which_o we_o have_v have_v they_o god_n give_v they_o then_o grace_v to_o be_v his_o child_n as_o he_o do_v we_o now_o etc._n etc._n in_o effect_n they_o and_o we_o be_v all_o one_o we_o have_v the_o same_o faith_n they_o have_v in_o god_n and_o they_o the_o same_o we_o have_v pag._n 25._o faith_n give_v life_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o they_o be_v as_o much_o dead_a to_o god_n that_o lack_n faith_n as_o they_o be_v to_o the_o world_n who_o body_n lack_v soul_n without_o faith_n all_o that_o be_v do_v of_o we_o be_v but_o dead_a before_o god_n although_o the_o work_n seem_v never_o so_o gay_a and_o glorious_a before_o man_n even_o as_o the_o picture_n grave_v or_o paint_v be_v but_o a_o dead_a representation_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o and_o be_v without_o life_n or_o any_o manner_n of_o move_v so_o be_v the_o work_n of_o all_o unfaithful_a person_n before_o god_n they_o do_v appear_v to_o be_v lively_a work_n and_o indeed_o they_o be_v but_o dead_a not_o avail_v to_o the_o everlasting_a life_n they_o be_v but_o shadow_n &_o show_v of_o lively_a and_o good_a thing_n and_o not_o good_a and_o lively_a thing_n indeed_o for_o true_a faith_n do_v give_v life_n to_o the_o work_n and_o out_o of_o such_o faith_n come_v good_a work_n that_o be_v very_o good_a work_n indeed_o &_o without_o faith_n no_o work_n be_v good_a before_o god_n as_o say_v st._n aug._n pag._n 30._o and_o there_o and_o in_o pag._n 31_o 32._o much_o be_v quote_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n out_o of_o st._n augustine_n st._n ambrose_n st._n chrysostom_n among_o other_o thing_n this_o be_v quote_v with_o approbation_n from_o chrysostome_n i_o can_v show_v a_o man_n that_o by_o faith_n without_o work_n live_v and_o come_v to_o heaven_n but_o without_o faith_n never_o man_n have_v life_n the_o thief_n that_o be_v hang_v when_o christ_n suffer_v do_v believe_v only_o and_o the_o most_o mereiful_a god_n justify_v he_o and_o because_o no_o man_n shall_v say_v again_o that_o he_o lack_v time_n to_o do_v good_a work_n else_o he_o will_v have_v do_v they_o truth_n it_o be_v and_o i_o will_v not_o contend_v therein_o but_o this_o i_o will_v sure_o affirm_v that_o faith_n only_o save_v he_o if_o he_o have_v live_v and_o not_o regard_v faith_n and_o the_o work_v thereof_o he_o shall_v have_v lose_v his_o salvation_n again_o but_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n that_o i_o say_v that_o faith_n by_o itself_o save_v he_o but_o work_v by_o themselves_o never_o justify_v any_o man_n these_o be_v some_o of_o many_o thing_n which_o i_o can_v have_v quote_v out_o of_o the_o homily_n which_o mr._n sh._n be_v bind_v to_o read_v to_o his_o people_n and_o which_o be_v publish_v by_o queen_n elizabeth_n to_o expel_v erroneous_a and_o poisonous_a doctrine_n and_o be_v reprint_v by_o king_n james_n not_o only_o for_o a_o help_n of_o non-preaching_a but_o withal_o as_o a_o pattern_n for_o preach_a minister_n how_o ill_o mr._n sh._n have_v fit_v his_o cloth_n to_o this_o pattern_n he_o that_o be_v not_o very_o blind_a may_v see_v somebody_o perhaps_o may_v be_v at_o so_o much_o trouble_n as_o to_o gather_v up_o his_o droll_a parenthesis_n and_o adapt_v they_o to_o the_o expression_n in_o the_o homily_n compose_v perhaps_o as_o to_o the_o first_o tome_n of_o they_o by_o arch._n cranmer_n and_z as_o to_o the_o last_o of_o they_o by_o a_o prelate_n not_o inferior_a to_o he_o for_o learning_n and_o piety_n i_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o make_v the_o papist_n and_o other_o sectary_n so_o much_o sport_n but_o certain_o have_v i_o a_o cure_n of_o soul_n i_o will_v every_o holiday_n when_o there_o be_v no_o sermon_n in_o my_o church_n either_o read_v or_o cause_n to_o be_v read_v one_o of_o they_o to_o my_o people_n and_o shall_v not_o dare_v to_o expose_v the_o doctrine_n contain_v in_o they_o as_o mr._n sh._n manifest_o do_v i_o may_v look_v before_o i_o leap_v well_o consider_v whether_o it_o be_v meet_v to_o tie_v up_o myself_o not_o to_o contradict_v some_o passage_n in_o the_o homily_n but_o when_o i_o have_v so_o tie_v myself_o i_o will_v either_o strict_o observe_v my_o obligation_n or_o open_o declare_v my_o sorrow_n for_o bring_v myself_o under_o it_o but_o because_o he_o have_v so_o much_o applaud_v the_o milk_n for_o babe_n or_o the_o liturgical_a catechism_n let_v we_o take_v some_o notice_n of_o that_o which_o for_o my_o part_n i_o so_o much_o approve_v that_o i_o will_v not_o for_o all_o the_o money_n in_o my_o pocket_n a_o new_a catechism_n be_v now_o to_o be_v make_v in_o that_o catechism_n we_o shall_v find_v something_o of_o art_n and_o subtlety_n as_o this_o gentleman_n will_v call_v it_o the_o child_n in_o that_o catechism_n be_v first_o ask_v what_o be_v his_o name_n that_o question_n may_v be_v answer_v without_o art_n or_o subtlety_n but_o then_o in_o the_o next_o place_n be_v ask_v who_o give_v he_o that_o name_n he_o be_v direct_v to_o make_v answer_n my_o godfather_n and_o my_o godmother_n in_o my_o baptism_n when_o i_o be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n a_o child_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n if_o the_o child_n be_v at_o baptism_n make_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v also_o then_o unite_v to_o christ_n and_o put_v into_o christ_n for_o nothing_o can_v be_v a_o member_n of_o that_o unto_o which_o it_o be_v not_o unite_v now_o suppose_v any_o child_n shall_v be_v so_o pert_a or_o malepert_a as_o to_o ask_v the_o rector_n what_o the_o word_n christ_n signify_v when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n the_o rector_n will_v grave_o answer_v christ_n have_v four_o signification_n it_o signify_v the_o office_n of_o christ_n the_o person_n of_o christ_n the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n the_o child_n be_v not_o i_o suppose_v make_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n office_n nor_o of_o christ_n doctrine_n he_o must_v be_v make_v a_o member_n therefore_o either_o of_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n or_o of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v like_o mr._n sh._n will_v answer_v the_o child_n that_o he_o be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o what_o this_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o child_z no_o where_o find_v explain_v in_o the_o church_n catechism_n the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n be_v mention_v as_o one_o of_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v in_o the_o creed_n and_o i_o think_v the_o word_n also_o occur_v in_o the_o first_o question_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n which_o part_n of_o the_o catechism_n be_v no_o old_a than_o the_o hampton-court_n conference_n but_o what_o the_o word_n church_n signify_v be_v not_o where_o open_v in_o that_o catechism_n will_n mr._n sh._n now_o say_v that_o the_o child_n be_v to_o profess_v himself_o a_o member_n of_o he_o know_v not_o what_o i_o suppose_v he_o will_v not_o but_o rather_o will_v tell_v he_o what_o the_o church_n be_v and_o then_o he_o must_v use_v some_o art_n or_o subtlety_n to_o make_v he_o understand_v how_o he_o be_v member_n of_o that_o church_n and_o i_o think_v he_o must_v be_v very_o subtle_a that_o can_v make_v a_o child_n understand_v how_o he_o can_v be_v a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n before_o he_o have_v first_o make_v he_o understand_v how_o he_o be_v make_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n himself_o and_o i_o doubt_v the_o child_n head_n
