through_o christ_n aprehend_v by_o faith_n do_v daily_a sin_n and_o though_o also_o that_o their_o good_a work_n be_v not_o every_o way_n perfect_a but_o defile_v by_o sin_n whereof_o we_o have_v many_o remnant_n still_o continue_v in_o we_o after_o our_o renew_v yet_o those_o that_o do_v believe_v be_v to_o fear_v no_o condemnation_n but_o may_v assure_o wait_v and_o look_v for_o eternal_a life_n whereof_o they_o shall_v be_v undoubted_o partaker_n these_o doctrine_n therefore_o be_v to_o be_v detest_v 1_o that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v assure_v of_o his_o salvation_n 2_o that_o the_o natural_a remnant_n of_o freewill_n be_v holpen_v by_o prevent_v grace_n do_v work_n together_o with_o or_o further_o the_o first_o grace_n to_o believe_v &_o to_o do_v good_a work_n 3_o that_o justification_n before_o the_o tribunal_n seat_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v attribut_v if_o not_o whole_o yet_o in_o part_n unto_o good_a work_n and_o that_o as_o be_v meritorious_a 4_o that_o the_o essential_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v whereby_o christ_n be_v god_n be_v pour_v into_o we_o which_o be_v the_o phrenesie_n of_o osiander_n 5_o that_o we_o can_v be_v justify_v by_o a_o righteousness_n that_o be_v not_o inhaerent_a in_o ourselves_o 6_o that_o our_o justification_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n be_v a_o effect_n of_o our_o regeneration_n 7_o that_o it_o be_v false_a that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n 8_o that_o christ_n do_v purchase_v the_o dignity_n of_o merit_n by_o our_o good_a work_n which_o be_v a_o new-coyned_n falsehood_n of_o the_o jesuit_n 9_o that_o the_o law_n which_o god_n have_v leave_v to_o we_o in_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o the_o only_a rule_n of_o good_a work_n 10_o that_o the_o merrite_n of_o christ_n only_o be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o we_o unto_o salvation_n 11_o thar_z christ_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o guilt_n and_o the_o punishment_n have_v only_o satisfy_v for_o sin_n past_a that_o be_v for_o sin_n go_v before_o baptism_n 12_o that_o in_o the_o sin_n which_o follow_v baptism_n the_o guilt_n be_v only_o remit_v and_o not_o the_o punishment_n also_o 13_o that_o original_a sin_n be_v utterlie_o take_v away_o by_o baptism_n and_o that_o by_o the_o work_n wrought_v 14_o that_o the_o good_a work_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v in_o no_o wise_a sinful_a 15_o that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o work_n of_o supererogation_a defend_v by_o bartholomew_n rhodingus_n of_o hafsia_n principle_n concern_v good_a work_n xxvii_o 1_o good_a work_n be_v as_o necessary_a for_o the_o sound_n and_o the_o undoubted_a discern_v of_o true_a sanctification_n in_o a_o regenerate_a man_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v as_o be_v good_a fruit_n in_o a_o tree_n that_o bear_v to_o show_v that_o it_o have_v be_v right_o graff_v 2_o we_o call_v good_a work_n the_o effect_n of_o those_o action_n only_o which_o in_o the_o regenerate_a by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n through_o faith_n be_v square_v according_a unto_o the_o prescript_n rule_v of_o god_n law_n that_o in_o they_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v and_o our_o neighbour_n help_v 3_o there_o be_v four_o thing_n then_o to_o be_v especial_o observe_v in_o this_o definition_n the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o the_o efficient_a cause_n faith_n the_o instrumental_a the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o formal_a god_n glory_n and_o the_o edification_n of_o our_o neighbour_n as_o the_o final_a 4_o out_o of_o these_o former_a part_n right_o understand_v the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o good_a work_n be_v make_v clear_a and_o with_o all_o the_o false_a doctrine_n both_o of_o ancient_a and_o new_a writer_n in_o this_o argument_n be_v out_o of_o they_o easy_o confute_v 5_o in_o the_o first_o place_n then_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o efficient_a cause_n we_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v enable_v to_o do_v good_a work_n only_o by_o the_o grace_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n renew_v our_o heart_n when_o as_o it_o do_v incline_v our_o understanding_n our_o will_n &_o all_o our_o member_n which_o be_v turn_v from_o god_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o do_v obey_v the_o know_v will_n of_o god_n for_o the_o work_v in_o we_o both_o to_o will_v and_o to_o do_v the_o papist_n then_o be_v deceive_v who_o lean_v upon_o their_o own_o strength_n do_v brag_n of_o their_o freewill_n and_o their_o natural_a ability_n as_o if_o it_o lie_v in_o they_o to_o prevent_v or_o go_v before_o the_o first_o grace_n by_o a_o kind_n of_o praeparation_n and_o as_o though_o of_o themselves_o they_o can_v in_o a_o sort_n bring_v forth_o good_a work_n 6_o second_o as_o faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n so_o good_a work_n can_v not_o be_v where_o there_o be_v no_o faith_n whereupon_o we_o condemn_v their_o error_n who_o bold_o avouch_v that_o good_a work_n be_v or_o can_v be_v do_v by_o profane_a man_n or_o such_o as_o be_v not_o endue_v with_o faith_n how_o just_a and_o wise_a soever_o they_o be_v account_v see_v whatsoever_o be_v do_v without_o faith_n be_v sin_n 7_o although_o we_o profess_v that_o good_a work_n be_v no_o less_o necessary_o conjoin_v with_o faith_n then_o light_a with_o the_o sun_n or_o heat_n with_o the_o fire_n yet_o do_v we_o not_o say_v that_o they_o be_v therefore_o respect_v of_o god_n as_o though_o by_o they_o we_o deserve_v either_o to_o be_v justify_v before_o he_o or_o to_o be_v make_v his_o child_n 8_o and_o they_o be_v to_o be_v account_v to_o deal_v no_o less_o impudent_o then_o rash_o and_o ignorantlie_o who_o raise_v up_o the_o slander_n that_o we_o contemn_v and_o reject_v good_a work_n because_o we_o hold_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o 9_o thridlie_n see_v the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n which_o give_v the_o form_n unto_o good_a work_n that_o be_v the_o name_n of_o true_a goodness_n we_o avouch_v that_o none_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o have_v no_o other_o ground_n then_o the_o bare_a will_n or_o reason_n of_o man_n can_v be_v reckon_v among_o good_a work_n 10_o in_o like_a manner_n that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o do_v well_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o what_o he_o do_v be_v find_v to_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o this_o also_o be_v require_v that_o he_o assure_o know_v that_o what_o he_o do_v be_v enjoin_v unto_o he_o by_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o he_o do_v it_o with_o a_o intent_n to_o obey_v god_n therein_o for_o whatsoever_o be_v do_v with_o a_o doubtful_a conscience_n be_v sin_n 11_o and_o although_o the_o good_a work_n of_o the_o regenerate_a be_v not_o perfect_a because_o we_o can_v in_o this_o life_n no_o not_o though_o we_o be_v assist_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n live_v according_a unto_o the_o prescript_n of_o god_n law_n but_o rather_o our_o good_a work_n be_v stain_v with_o many_o blemish_n yet_o they_o do_v please_v god_n not_o for_o any_o worthiness_n of_o they_o but_o partly_o because_o our_o defect_n be_v cover_v by_o the_o holiness_n merit_n and_o intercession_n of_o christ_n and_o partly_o because_o god_n do_v of_o favour_n approve_v and_o crown_v they_o not_o as_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o but_o as_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o spirit_n in_o we_o and_o witness_n of_o our_o faith_n whence_o we_o gather_v that_o the_o donatist_n pellagian_o pharisy_n anabaptist_n monk_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o that_o batch_n be_v to_o be_v condemn_v who_o brag_v of_o a_o perfection_n of_o life_n and_o obedience_n and_o do_v secure_o rest_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o work_n as_o though_o they_o be_v in_o every_o point_n answerable_a unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n 12_o last_o although_o we_o have_v say_v that_o the_o end_n of_o good_a work_n be_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o aedification_n of_o our_o neighbour_n yet_o do_v it_o not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o ●…ereby_o other_o end_n of_o great_a moment_n be_v exclude_v of_o which_o sort_n be_v the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n the_o sure_a token_n of_o true_a religion_n or_o christian_a faith_n the_o assurance_n of_o our_o eternal_a election_n the_o avoid_n of_o the_o punishment_n due_a unto_o evil_a work_n and_o the_o undeserued_a obtain_n of_o the_o good_a work_n wherefore_o we_o may_v just_o accuse_v all_o atheist_n antinomian_o quarreller_n with_o the_o law_n as_o though_o it_o be_v repugnant_a unto_o itself_o hypocrite_n libertine_n and_o impenitent_a person_n as_o guilty_a of_o impiety_n who_o either_o do_v despise_v good_a work_n as_o be_v unprofitable_a or_o condemn_v they_o as_o burdensome_a unto_o the_o conscience_n 13_o neither_o be_v it_o to_o be_v conclude_v in_o asmuch_o as_o in_o this_o matter_n we_o make_v mention_n of_o reward_n as_o the_o scripture_n do_v that_o therefore_o they_o be_v by_o merit_n due_a unto_o good_a work_n for_o whatsoever_o we_o do_v or_o
