in_o the_o 14._o verse_n forthwith_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o yield_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o his_o advice_n to_o wit_n because_o certain_a be_v already_o turn_v back_o after_o satan_n now_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o must_v needs_o speak_v of_o such_o widow_n as_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n because_o none_o can_v be_v turn_v back_o from_o that_o to_o which_o they_o never_o be_v admit_v he_o therefore_o speak_v likewise_o of_o the_o betroth_a widow_n in_o the_o next_o verse_n before_o which_o i_o make_v evident_a three_o way_n first_o because_o otherwise_o his_o illation_n in_o the_o 15._o verse_n shall_v be_v foolish_a &_o frivolous_a foolish_a because_o it_o can_v have_v no_o connexion_n with_o the_o 14._o verse_n frivolous_a for_o that_o it_o can_v not_o conclude_v his_o purpose_n second_o because_o he_o have_v already_o in_o the_o 11._o verse_n charge_v the_o bishop_n timothy_n not_o to_o receive_v any_o widow_n under_o the_o age_n of_o 60._o year_n this_o conclusion_n therefore_o be_v make_v touch_v the_o widow_n not_o yet_o admit_v he_o go_v forward_a and_o give_v his_o advice_n for_o the_o young_a widow_n than_o receive_v

that_o god_n righteousness_n be_v that_o justice_n which_o we_o present_v for_o our_o justification_n second_o that_o it_o be_v we_o for_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n three_o that_o we_o apprehend_v and_o take_v hold_v upon_o it_o by_o faith_n only_o and_o so_o we_o have_v the_o explication_n how_o sole_a faith_n do_v justify_v which_o because_o the_o papist_n so_o bitter_o impugn_v i_o will_v prove_v it_o both_o by_o y_z e_z scripture_n and_o the_o father_n if_o abraham_n say_v s._n paul_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n â—_o he_o have_v wherein_o to_o rejoice_v but_o not_o with_o

that_o work_n do_v not_o justify_v abraham_n before_o god_n i_o note_v second_o that_o that_o justice_n by_o which_o man_n stand_v clear_a before_o god_n be_v only_o imputative_a and_o not_o real_o inherent_a in_o himself_o which_o imputative_a justice_n the_o apostle_n do_v often_o inculcate_v
of_o work_n lest_o any_o man_n shall_v boast_v himself_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n mean_v nothing_o less_o then_o that_o we_o shall_v purchase_v and_o merit_n heaven_n by_o our_o good_a work_n

to_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n yet_o do_v they_o it_o so_o doubtful_o so_o unconstant_o so_o cold_o as_o none_o of_o they_o do_v or_o can_v make_v it_o a_o article_n of_o our_o

some_o such_o judgement_n follow_v this_o interpretation_n as_o i_o think_v be_v not_o repugnant_a to_o reason_n thus_o we_o see_v clear_o how_o unconstant_a and_o how_o cold_a s._n austin_n

do_v if_o there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o purgatory_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o sundry_a of_o the_o father_n pray_v for_o the_o dead_a who_o never_o once_o dream_v of_o popish_a purgatory_n which_o thing_n be_v so_o full_o prove_v in_o my_o motive_n as_o may_v be_v sufficient_a for_o this_o objection_n i_o say_v second_o that_o in_o the_o hot_a persecution_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n when_o martyr_n be_v daily_o put_v to_o death_n for_o confess_v christ_n jesus_n then_o the_o church_n do_v offer_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o laud_n and_o thanksgiving_n &_o do_v celebrate_v anniverssary_n or_o annual_a memory_n of_o her_o faithful_a child_n â—_o in_o which_o memory_n be_v public_o name_v all_o such_o person_n as_o die_v constant_o for_o the_o christian_n faith_n not_o by_o that_o mean_n to_o procure_v any_o merit_n remission_n or_o satisfaction_n to_o those_o bless_a martyr_n for_o as_o y_fw-fr e_fw-es papist_n grant_v martyr_n need_v no_o such_o thing_n 1_o but_o so_o to_o excite_v the_o live_n after_o their_o godly_a example_n bold_o to_o confess_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n and_o therein_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o yield_v up_o their_o life_n when_o time_n and_o place_n shall_v so_o require_v i_o say_v three_o that_o they_o pray_v for_o y_z e_z dead_a to_o insinuate_v their_o hope_n in_o the_o resurrection_n to_o mitigate_v their_o own_o sorrow_n and_o to_o declare_v their_o affection_n towards_o the_o dead_a theod._n but_o never_o do_v any_o of_o the_o approve_a antiquity_n pray_v in_o such_o sort_n for_o the_o dead_a as_o the_o papist_n this_o day_n do_v i_o say_v four_o that_o the_o prayer_n which_o the_o old_a father_n use_v minister_v great_a occasion_n to_o that_o superstition_n which_o be_v now_o a_o high_a point_n of_o romish_a religion_n for_o the_o ignorant_a posterity_n wrest_v every_o thing_n to_o serve_v their_o turn_n i_o say_v fift_o that_o as_o the_o father_n be_v excite_v to_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a of_o a_o certain_a natural_a affection_n towards_o they_o so_o be_v they_o doubtful_a what_o effect_n their_o prayer_n shall_v have_v and_o whether_o they_o do_v profit_v the_o dead_a or_o no._n yea_o some_o of_o the_o father_n pray_v only_o for_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o my_o motive_n the_o uncertainty_n &_o doubt_n which_o the_o other_o father_n have_v 1._o shall_v appear_v evident_o by_o s._n austin_n testimony_n first_o therefore_o s._n austen_n pray_v for_o his_o mother_n &_o that_o she_o may_v have_v remission_n of_o her_o sin_n for_o i_o will_v
