have_v no_o scripture_n so_o frame_v for_o faith_n as_o to_o say_v faith_n justifi_v nevertheless_o to_o answer_v you_o according_a to_o your_o folysshnes_n and_o to_o stop_v your_o mouth_n who_o begin_v to_o appose_v i_o as_o child_n be_v wont_v each_o one_o another_o in_o their_o primer_n to_o ask_v where_o they_o find_v two_o deus_fw-la &_o never_o a_o meus_fw-la ●lables_n a_o auns●_n meet_v for_o 〈◊〉_d that_o will_v 〈◊〉_d stryve_v for_o ●lables_n thus_o much_o i_o say_v i_o find_v in_o saint_n paul_n deus_fw-la iustificat_fw-la and_o then_o i_o find_v in_o saint_n john_n deus_fw-la est_fw-la charitas_fw-la and_o so_o i_o find_v charitas_fw-la iustificat_fw-la for_o quicquid_fw-la predicatur_fw-la de_fw-la subiecto_fw-la predicatur_fw-la de_fw-la predicato_fw-la and_o so_o if_o deus_fw-la predicatur_fw-la de_fw-la iustificare_fw-la to_o say_v deus_fw-la iustificat_fw-la and_o then_o charitas_fw-la predicatur_fw-la de_fw-la deo_fw-la deus_fw-la est_fw-la charitas_fw-la the_o scripture_n that_o say_v deus_fw-la iustificat_fw-la say_v also_o charitas_fw-la iustificat_fw-la and_o thus_o i_o gyve_v you_o word_n for_o word_n who_o deserve_v none_o other_o for_o else_o i_o know_v that_o charitas_fw-la que_fw-fr de_fw-fr deo_fw-la predicatur_fw-la est_fw-la increata_fw-la and_o so_o differ_v a_o charitate_fw-la qua_fw-la iustificamur_fw-la thus_o for_o my_o recreation_n i_o answer_v you_o as_o you_o be_v worthy_a who_o from_o seriouse_a discussion_n of_o the_o true_a sense_n will_v bring_v the_o matter_n to_o syllable_n and_o yet_o in_o deed_n you_o have_v no_o such_o syllable_n for_o faith_n what_o so_o ever_o you_o say_v as_o you_o will_v have_v i_o find_v to_o serve_v for_o charity_n for_o scripture_n have_v neither_o fides_fw-la iustificat_fw-la nor_o charitas_fw-la iustificat_fw-la in_o syllable_n but_o the_o sense_n of_o both_o be_v contain_v in_o scripture_n as_o before_o be_v declare_v as_o for_o work_n of_o the_o law_n serve_v you_o only_o for_o matter_n to_o talk_v on_o as_o for_o frenes_n in_o justification_n i_o affirm_v all_o to_o be_v of_o gift_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o free_a than_o gift_n i_o speak_v of_o no_o glory_n but_o only_o of_o god_n glory_n in_o who_o we_o shall_v glory_n as_o saint_n paul_n teach_v us._n now_o where_o you_o say_v that_o if_o the_o effect_n of_o christes_fw-fr passion_n shall_v depend_v of_o the_o condition_n of_o our_o work_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v sure_a and_o certain_a of_o our_o justification_n for_o all_o our_o work_n be_v unperfite_a and_o foul_a thus_o i_o answer_v you_o that_o what_o sureness_n you_o will_v have_v i_o can_v not_o tell_v but_o of_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o god_n have_v thus_o ordain_v that_o baptysme_n be_v necessary_a to_o attain_v salvation_n and_o yet_o all_o child_n be_v not_o sure_a to_o be_v baptize_v and_o this_o do_v scripture_n tell_v i_o assure_o that_o a_o man_n must_v persevere_v in_o good_a do_v to_o the_o end_n or_o else_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v save_v and_o that_o he_o that_o stand_v in_o virtue_n may_v fall_v and_o be_v cast_v out_o i_o be_o assure_v by_o saint_n paul_n admonition_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n bid_v the_o gentyle_n take_v heed_n that_o he_o fall_v not_o and_o saint_n austen_n say_v if_o we_o continue_v in_o goodness_n we_o may_v be_v assure_v of_o god_n that_o he_o will_v not_o fail_v but_o whether_o we_o shall_v continue_v no_o man_n know_v and_o therefore_o such_o assurance_n as_o you_o speak_v of_o without_o regard_n of_o the_o condition_n and_o observe_v of_o it_o also_o i_o have_v not_o red_a thus_o have_v i_o learn_v in_o scripture_n if_o we_o turn_v when_o god_n turn_v to_o we_o if_o we_o believe_v when_o god_n illuminate_v us._n if_o we_o love_v as_o god_n kyndle_v us._n if_o we_o be_v baptize_v as_o god_n command_v we_o we_o shall_v be_v justify_v salvation_n condition_n require_v in_o scripture_n of_o man_n for_o his_o salvation_n if_o we_o walk_v in_o justification_n as_o god_n by_o christ_n have_v teach_v we_o and_o therein_o persevere_v we_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o glorify_v and_o i_o know_v none_o other_o englyshe_a for_o so_o many_o if_z but_o to_o call_v they_o condition_n and_o work_v also_o to_o be_v do_v by_o we_o which_o work_v be_v unperfite_a in_o we_o that_o be_v ourself_o unperfite_a and_o as_o touchinge_a unperfitenes_n faith_n therein_o differ_v not_o from_o charite_n for_o they_o need_v both_o daily_o increase_v of_o perfection_n and_o therefore_o job_n say_v verebar_fw-la omne_fw-la opera_fw-la mea_fw-la which_o may_v comprehend_v faith_n also_o but_o all_o our_o imperfitnes_n be_v supply_v in_o christes_fw-fr perfitnes_n and_o so_o christ_n suppli_v we_o and_o we_o supply_v not_o christ_n we_o shall_v do_v all_o as_o christe_n do_v for_o he_o be_v our_o example_n to_o follow_v but_o we_o can_v not_o for_o we_o have_v the_o dregs_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v compass_v about_o with_o infirmity_n as_o punyshment_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o father_n adam_n so_o as_o the_o power_n of_o our_o soul_n upon_o occasion_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o flessh_n and_o suggestion_n

because_o the_o gospel_n have_v a_o end_n to_o begin_v at_o that_o god_n have_v also_o a_o end_n to_o begin_v at_o for_o so_o have_v every_o thing_n that_o begyn_v as_o man_n conceyve_v it_o or_o
