you_o and_o by_o his_o blood_n you_o be_v justify_v and_o by_o his_o impute_a righteousness_n you_o be_v accept_v now_o consider_v the_o ground_n of_o your_o faith_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o

god_n according_a to_o scripture_n now_o be_v your_o faith_n within_o you_o or_o without_o you_o if_o within_o you_o than_o christ_n be_v there_o also_o for_o he_o be_v the_o author_n of_o true_a

within_o you_o than_o not_o faith_n within_o you_o and_o then_o not_o pure_a heart_n and_o what_o good_a do_v all_o your_o apprehension_n do_v you_o if_o you_o can_v witness_v pure_a heart_n they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o unbelief_n can_v but_o lie_v there_o and_o what_o better_o be_v you_o by_o your_o faith_n than_o they_o that_o that_o have_v no_o faith_n at_o all_o for_o all_o man_n have_v not_o faith_n this_o be_v in_o tender_a pity_n to_o you_o that_o you_o may_v once_o look_v within_o and_o have_v regard_n to_o that_o which_o do_v reprove_v you_o for_o that_o which_o cry_v peace_n when_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n will_v not_o do_v you_o any_o good_a that_o be_v ever_o the_o message_n of_o the_o false_a prophet_n to_o cry_v peace_n to_o that_o nature_n which_o live_v and_o

in_o the_o latter_a end_n let_v no_o such_o message_n strengthen_v you_o where_o you_o be_v nor_o persuade_v not_o yourselves_o thereby_o that_o you_o be_v what_o you_o be_v not_o for_o if_o you_o

before_o the_o love_n mercy_n and_o peace_n of_o god_n be_v obtain_v for_o you_o that_o talk_v so_o much_o of_o justification_n by_o christ_n whilst_o you_o be_v not_o change_v and_o renew_v by_o the_o work_n of_o his_o power_n you_o have_v yet_o a_o large_a journey_n to_o go_v before_o you_o can_v come_v to_o that_o place_n where_o justification_n be_v witness_v for_o he_o do_v not_o

but_o you_o be_v wash_v but_o you_o be_v sanctify_v but_o you_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n &_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o god_n 1_o cor._n 6._o 11._o mark_v here_o

jesus_n mark_n that_o for_o abraham_n as_o pertain_v to_o the_o flesh_n find_v nothing_o but_o believe_v in_o god_n he_o find_v the_o seed_n and_o his_o faith_n be_v count_v unto_o he_o for_o

be_v justify_v in_o the_o righteousness_n and_o not_o in_o the_o ungodliness_n and_o so_o he_o receive_v the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o faith_n which_o he_o have_v yet_o be_v uncircumcised_a who_o against_o hope_n believe_v in_o hope_n that_o he_o may_v become_v the_o father_n of_o many_o nation_n according_a to_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v so_o shall_v thy_o seed_n be_v therefore_o to_o apply_v justification_n by_o christ_n whilst_o people_n be_v find_v sinner_n be_v to_o exclude_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n in_o man_n who_o appear_v to_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o to_o bring_v in_o everlasting_a righteousness_n and_o to_o justify_v man_n in_o his_o own_o righteousness_n for_o in_o no_o other_o thing_n can_v man_n stand_v justify_v before_o god_n who_o be_v righteous_a and_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n shall_v stand_v for_o ever_o and_o they_o go_v on_o too_o fast_o that_o will_v be_v justify_v before_o they_o submit_v to_o reproof_n for_o christ_n must_v be_v receive_v as_o he_o be_v a_o reprover_n before_o any_o can_v know_v he_o as_o a_o justifier_n and_o so_o man_n be_v fill_v with_o his_o apprehension_n he_o be_v

of_o justification_n lift_v they_o up_o and_o they_o will_v not_o stoop_v nor_o bow_v to_o such_o a_o low_a degree_n as_o to_o reproof_n they_o be_v too_o wise_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n by_o their_o

be_v in_o want_n of_o he_o for_o where_o can_v any_o come_v to_o feed_v upon_o christ_n if_o they_o find_v he_o not_o within_o they_o how_o can_v they_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n if_o he_o be_v not_o within_o they_o and_o can_v any_o have_v life_n in_o he_o if_o they_o do_v not_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n or_o can_v any_o eat_v that_o flesh_n that_o be_v

christ_n if_o any_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n they_o must_v feel_v he_o to_o be_v within_o they_o and_o his_o fan_n must_v go_v in_o his_o hand_n within_o they_o and_o his_o fire_n must_v burn_v up_o the_o chaff_n and_o his_o water_n must_v wash_v away_o the_o uncleanness_n and_o they_o must_v be_v whole_o separate_v from_o that_o nature_n which_o can_v come_v into_o
