A41483	The banner of justification displayed: or; a discourse, concerning the deep, and important mystery of the justification of a sinner wherein the severall causes thereof, being both numerous and various, are from the first to the last diligently enquired after, and their severall contributions towards so great and happy a work, clearly distinguished, and assigned to their proper causes (respectively.) and more particularly is shewed, how God, how the grace of God, how the decree of God, how the soveraign authority of God; how Christ, how the active obedience [of] Christ, how the passive obedience of Christ, how the resurrection of Christ, how the knowledge of Christ; how the spirit of God, how faith, how repentance, how works, how remission of s[in,] how the word, how the minister of the word, how the P[ope?] himself which is justified, may all truly, though upon severall accounts, and after different manners, be sayed to justifie.

sin_n be_v to_o be_v have_v yet_o it_o legitimate_v or_o authorize_v the_o person_n for_o the_o reception_n of_o this_o bless_a accommodation_n from_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n and_o for_o this_o

he_o of_o this_o kind_n of_o justification_n when_o it_o be_v due_o and_o just_o give_v or_o pronounce_v good_a work_n in_o one_o kind_n or_o other_o and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n those_o of_o the_o

approbation_n of_o any_o particular_a person_n until_o he_o have_v show_v the_o world_n his_o faith_n by_o his_o work_n nor_o do_v he_o require_v of_o any_o man_n to_o judge_v of_o any_o other_o
