for_o christ_n sake_n only_o by_o faith_n only_o and_o not_o partly_o by_o faith_n for_o christ_n sake_n and_o partly_o for_o our_o own_o good_a work_v paul_n amplify_v the_o first_o proposition_n

alter_v the_o testament_n or_o will_n of_o god._n the_o second_o argument_n be_v of_o thing_n that_o hang_v not_o together_o for_o if_o the_o inheritance_n come_v by_o the_o law_n then_o be_v it_o not_o by_o promise_n but_o god_n grant_v it_o to_o abraham_n by_o promise_n this_o argument_n may_v be_v include_v in_o this_o syllogism_n whatsoever_o be_v give_v by_o the_o law_n as_o a_o wage_n

the_o law_n or_o be_v not_o give_v for_o our_o own_o work_v or_o our_o obedience_n towards_o the_o law_n this_o argument_n do_v paul_n amplify_v with_o two_o prevention_n only_o of_o which_o the_o

to_o this_o objection_n paul_n answer_v thus_o that_o the_o testament_n objection_n which_o be_v ratify_v before_o by_o god_n through_o christ_n or_o the_o promise_n of_o free_a reconcilement_n be_v not_o make_v void_a or_o disannul_v by_o the_o law_n but_o that_o it_o continue_v always_o steadfast_a &_o unmovable_a without_o put_v any_o thing_n to_o it_o or_o take_v aught_o away_o from_o it_o by_o the_o publish_n of_o the_o law_n hereupon_o rise_v the_o second_o objection_n to_o what_o purpose_n objection_n be_v the_o law_n then_o why_o be_v it_o make_v by_o god_n if_o it_o justify_v not_o ne_o be_v needful_a to_o salvation_n paul_n answer_v it_o be_v add_v because_o of_o transgression_n that_o be_v to_o say_v for_o this_o cause_n be_v the_o law_n make_v that_o it_o shall_v show_v

righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o out_o of_o this_o answer_n be_v build_v the_o three_o argument_n of_o the_o effect_n hang_v upon_o it_o if_o the_o law_n can_v deliver_v from_o death_n and_o restore_v life_n objection_n and_o effectual_a comfort_n than_o may_v we_o be_v justify_v also_o by_o the_o law_n but_o the_o law_n can_v not_o deliver_v man_n from_o sin_n &_o death_n and_o restore_v life_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o too_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n he_o prove_v the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n thus_o the_o law_n promise_v or_o give_v eternal_a life_n to_o all_o those_o that_o yield_v perfect_a obedience_n without_o any_o sin_n but_o the_o scripture_n have_v close_v all_o thing_n under_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o word_n or_o law_n of_o god_n convince_v accuse_v and_o condemn_v all_o man_n that_o they_o be_v defile_v with_o sin_n and_o guilty_a of_o god_n wrath_n and_o endless_a damnation_n ergo_fw-la the_o law_n deliver_v no_o
