wander_v in_o ignorance_n and_o darkness_n and_o can_v do_v no_o true_a and_o sincere_a virtue_n but_o happy_o now_o and_o then_o some_o vain_a mask_n and_o show_v of_o virtue_n and_o thus_o much_o

this_o time_n and_o with_o some_o description_n work_n open_v the_o meaning_n or_o signification_n of_o good_a work_n good_a work_n be_v action_n which_o be_v do_v of_o man_n regenerate_v by_o the_o aid_n of_o god_n spirit_n through_o faith_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n have_v their_o respect_n as_o chief_a use_n and_o end_n to_o wit_n the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o ornament_n and_o honesty_n of_o our_o life_n and_o the_o profit_n and_o commodity_n of_o our_o neighbour_n i_o will_v open_v every_o part_n of_o this_o description_n large_o after_o i_o have_v show_v how_o earnest_o almighty_a god_n in_o his_o word_n require_v of_o his_o servant_n good_a work_n which_o be_v establish_v and_o not_o reiect_v by_o faith_n first_o therefore_o all_o sincéere_n and_o faithful_a professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n ought_v most_o certain_o to_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o faith_n they_o be_v adopt_v free_o by_o god_n and_o already_o justify_v through_o christ_n by_o faith_n and_o regenerate_v and_o sanctify_v by_o god_n spirit_n that_o they_o may_v in_o word_n and_o deed_n express_v and_o somewhat_o resemble_v the_o nature_n and_o disposition_n of_o their_o

before_o that_o a_o christian_a faith_n ought_v to_o be_v garnish_v with_o all_o kind_n of_o good_a work_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n after_o that_o proposition_n we_o gather_v therefore_o that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n in_o the_o way_n of_o question_v say_v we_o make_v the_o law_n therefore_o in_o vain_a through_o faith_n he_o answer_v by_o &_o by_o god_n forbid_v nay_o we_o establish_v the_o law_n even_o so_o i_o present_o affirm_v that_o we_o do_v not_o now_o a_o day_n dissolve_v good_a work_n by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n justifiing_n but_o we_o rather_o establish_v the_o same_o for_o without_o faith_n there_o can_v be_v no_o good_a work_n and_o faith_n can_v be_v unfruitful_a or_o idle_a in_o those_o that_o be_v justify_v moreover_o almighty_a god_n himself_o require_v of_o his_o servant_n the_o good_a work_n servant_n of_o a_o true_a faith_n and_o grievous_o accuse_v &_o condemn_v by_o the_o prophet_n &_o apostle_n those_o that_o be_v negligent_a and_o slothful_a moses_n say_v in_o the_o law_n and_o now_o israel_n what_o do_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n require_v 10._o of_o thou_o

of_o psalm_n bless_a be_v that_o man_n who_o thou_o oh_o lord_n instruct_v 94._o in_o thy_o law_n and_o again_o he_o have_v give_v a_o testimony_n unto_o jacob_n and_o a_o law_n unto_o israel_n that_o the_o posterity_n may_v know_v and_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o god_n and_o not_o forget_v the_o work_n of_o god_n but_o keep_v his_o commandment_n the_o prophet_n every_o where_o teach_v a_o true_a
