merit_n or_o any_o cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n but_o that_o they_o do_v necessary_o follow_v faith_n as_o the_o fruit_n and_o declaration_n thereof_o for_o if_o we_o shall_v attribute_v any_o part_n of_o our_o salvation_n to_o our_o own_o merit_n than_o be_v not_o our_o redemption_n of_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n but_o of_o desert_n as_o be_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n

to_o receive_v the_o same_o gift_n which_o be_v by_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n preach_v and_o teach_v unto_o us._n the_o opposite_a to_o faith_n that_o which_o stand_v against_o faith_n be_v infidelity_n and_o atheism_n which_o be_v of_o four_o sort_n the_o first_o be_v of_o those_o man_n that_o think_v there_o be_v no_o god_n at_o all_o but_o that_o the_o world_n be_v govern_v by_o the_o

they_o will_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o have_v any_o respect_n to_o the_o action_n and_o course_n of_o man_n life_n the_o three_o be_v of_o such_o as_o believe_v after_o a_o sort_n there_o be_v a_o

the_o four_o and_o last_o be_v of_o those_o that_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n the_o creator_n guider_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o weigh_v man_n action_n and_o shall_v sit_v in_o
