life_n be_v in_o outward_a show_n can_v not_o be_v righteous_a before_o god_n because_o as_o paul_n testify_v of_o they_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o righteousness_n 3._o of_o god_n and_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o righteousness_n have_v not_o submit_v themselves_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o likewise_o in_o regard_n hereof_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o find_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o man_n that_o be_v true_o righteous_a before_o god_n for_o the_o papist_n hold_v that_o we_o be_v make_v righteous_a by_o infusion_n of_o grace_n and_o practice_v of_o good_a work_n and_o that_o we_o can_v be_v no_o more_o righteous_a by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n impute_v unto_o we_o than_o we_o may_v be_v wise_a by_o another_o man_n wisdom_n or_o learn_v by_o another_o man_n learning_n but_o if_o they_o will_v due_o consider_v either_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o lord_n justice_n or_o the_o imperfection_n of_o our_o inherent_a grace_n and_o good_a work_n they_o will_v not_o imagine_v that_o the_o one_o can_v be_v satisfy_v by_o the_o other_o augustine_n 13._o say_v that_o which_o the_o law_n of_o work_n command_v by_o threaten_v the_o law_n of_o faith_n do_v obtain_v by_o believe_v christ_n jesus_n as_o he_o be_v mediator_n be_v as_o true_o give_v unto_o we_o of_o god_n as_o any_o land_n can_v be_v give_v by_o one_o to_o another_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v as_o well_o be_v make_v righteous_a by_o his_o righteousness_n as_o one_o man_n may_v be_v make_v rich_a by_o another_o man_n riches_n give_v unto_o he_o and_o it_o be_v strange_a to_o see_v the_o partiality_n of_o papist_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o impuration_n for_o they_o teach_v that_o the_o fasting_n and_o satisfactory_a 3._o deed_n of_o one_o man_n be_v available_a to_o other_o yea_o and_o that_o holy_a saint_n or_o other_o virtuous_a person_n may_v in_o measure_n and_o proportion_n of_o other_o man_n necessity_n and_o deserve_n allot_v unto_o they_o as_o well_o the_o supererogation_n of_o their_o spiritual_a work_n as_o those_o that_o abound_v in_o worldly_a good_n may_v give_v alm_n of_o their_o superfluity_n to_o they_o which_o be_v in_o necessity_n and_o yet_o they_o deny_v that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v impute_v unto_o we_o for_o justification_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n will_v accept_v the_o work_n of_o man_n to_o satisfy_v for_o we_o and_o not_o the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o own_o son_n 2._o second_o man_n be_v make_v righteous_a by_o 2_o sanctification_n when_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n the_o mind_n be_v enlighten_v the_o heart_n be_v mollify_v the_o will_n be_v rectify_v the_o affection_n be_v change_v and_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o the_o life_n be_v reform_v so_o that_o whereas_o before_o they_o like_v and_o love_v and_o live_v in_o sin_n now_o they_o abhor_v it_o and_o avoid_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o do_v righteousness_n be_v righteous_a as_o 7._o he_o be_v righteous_a and_o whosoever_o do_v not_o righteousness_n be_v not_o of_o god_n yet_o this_o do_v not_o make_v we_o perfect_o righteous_a but_o imperfect_o and_o not_o before_o god_n but_o before_o man_n and_o of_o this_o james_n speak_v say_v be_v not_o 21._o abraham_n our_o father_n justify_v through_o work_n when_o he_o offer_v his_o son_n on_o the_o altar_n you_o see_v locum_fw-la then_o how_o that_o of_o work_n a_o man_n be_v justify_v and_o not_o of_o faith_n only_o that_o be_v a_o man_n be_v declare_v manifest_a &_o try_v to_o be_v just_a by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o do_v diverse_a of_o the_o schoolman_n expound_v that_o place_n and_o indeed_o unless_o we_o do_v so_o understand_v it_o the_o apostle_n james_n will_v contradict_v the_o apostle_n paul_n who_o say_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o 28._o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n so_o that_o there_o be_v one_o righteousness_n impute_v another_o righteousness_n exercise_v and_o declare_v whosoever_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n merit_n they_o be_v at_o the_o same_o instant_n sanctify_v by_o his_o spirit_n and_o make_v able_a to_o practice_v righteousness_n in_o their_o conversation_n herein_o god_n excel_v all_o prince_n in_o the_o world_n for_o they_o may_v upon_o good_a consideration_n receive_v again_o into_o favour_n those_o which_o have_v offend_v they_o as_o david_n do_v absolom_n yea_o they_o may_v restore_v they_o to_o the_o former_a dignity_n which_o they_o have_v take_v from_o they_o yet_o they_o can_v alter_v their_o nature_n and_o disposition_n to_o make_v they_o more_o dutiful_a than_o they_o be_v before_o but_o god_n thus_o deal_v with_o his_o subject_n that_o have_v offend_v he_o he_o do_v not_o only_o forgive_v they_o their_o sin_n and_o receive_v they_o into_o favour_n for_o christ_n sake_n but_o also_o sanctify_v they_o by_o his_o spirit_n to_o keep_v they_o in_o obedience_n afterward_o now_o the_o mark_n whereby_o a_o righteous_a 2_o man_n may_v be_v know_v be_v to_o be_v learn_v for_o many_o will_v be_v reckon_v in_o this_o number_n which_o be_v unrighteous_a there_o be_v a_o generation_n 1●_n which_o be_v pure_a in_o their_o own_o conceit_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o wash_v from_o their_o filthiness_n although_o the_o best_a and_o sure_a knowledge_n arise_v from_o the_o cause_n of_o a_o thing_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v best_o learn_v who_o be_v a_o righteous_a man_n by_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v before_o yet_o because_o those_o thing_n be_v inward_a and_o secret_a i_o will_v teach_v you_o four_o outward_a mark_n whereby_o a_o righteous_a man_n may_v be_v discern_v first_o a_o righteous_a man_n may_v be_v know_v 1_o by_o the_o generality_n of_o his_o obedience_n if_o it_o extend_v itself_o to_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o life_n and_o to_o all_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n if_o he_o do_v not_o take_v liberty_n in_o any_o one_o sin_n but_o strive_v to_o avoid_v all_o nor_o omit_v any_o one_o good_a duty_n but_o endeavour_v to_o perform_v all_o be_v like_a to_o zacharias_n and_o elizabeth_n 6._o who_o be_v just_a before_o god_n and_o walk_v in_o all_o the_o commandment_n and_o ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n without_o reproof_n consider_v that_o god_n will_v not_o dispense_v with_o any_o of_o his_o servant_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o one_o of_o his_o law_n as_o prince_n sometime_o upon_o special_a occasion_n dispense_v with_o some_o of_o their_o subject_n for_o penal_a statute_n and_o see_v that_o he_o who_o bind_v we_o to_o all_o in_o general_a bind_v we_o to_o every_o one_o in_o particular_a and_o that_o whosoever_o 10._o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o yet_o fail_v in_o one_o point_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o a_o true_a righteous_a man_n will_v be_v as_o careful_a to_o keep_v one_o as_o another_o some_o man_n be_v like_a to_o naaman_n for_o he_o profess_v the_o true_a god_n of_o israel_n and_o promise_v to_o serve_v and_o worship_v he_o alone_o yet_o desire_v to_o be_v bear_v withal_o for_o one_o special_a sin_n herein_o say_v he_o to_o the_o prophet_n the_o lord_n be_v 18_o merciful_a unto_o thy_o servant_n that_o when_o my_o master_n go_v into_o the_o house_n of_o rimmon_n to_o worship_v there_o and_o lean_v on_o my_o hand_n and_o i_o bow_v myself_o in_o the_o house_n of_o rimmon_n the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a unto_o thy_o servant_n in_o this_o point_n so_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o avoid_v all_o other_o sin_n save_v only_o one_o which_o serve_v most_o for_o their_o pleasure_n or_o profit_n they_o desire_v to_o be_v pardon_v for_o it_o these_o be_v little_o better_o than_o herod_n be_v for_o he_o fear_v john_n baptist_n and_o reverence_v he_o hear_v he_o glad_o and_o do_v many_o thing_n after_o 20._o he_o but_o when_o john_n tell_v he_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o have_v his_o brother_n wife_n he_o will_v not_o obey_v he_o because_o that_o sin_n serve_v most_o for_o his_o pleasure_n although_o a_o ship_n be_v sound_a in_o all_o part_n but_o one_o and_o leak_v in_o no_o place_n save_v only_o one_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v drown_v by_o mean_n of_o that_o one_o though_o the_o wall_n of_o a_o besiege_a city_n be_v 17._o strong_a and_o well_o fortify_v in_o all_o place_n save_o one_o and_o have_v no_o breach_n save_v only_o one_o the_o enemy_n may_v enter_v in_o at_o that_o one_o and_o spoil_v the_o city_n our_o
