they_o to_o work_v without_o any_o change_n of_o the_o heart_n which_o can_v be_v wrought_v but_o only_o by_o grace_n &_o the_o papist_n think_v that_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o work_n he_o exclude_v not_o such_o work_n as_o the_o moral_a law_n require_v but_o such_o as_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n prescribe_v and_o the_o moral_a law_n work_v in_o man_n we_o teach_v that_o he_o exclude_v all_o these_o so_o that_o a_o man_n repent_v and_o believe_v may_v be_v save_v though_o have_v never_o do_v any_o good_a work_n he_o be_v take_v out_o of_o this_o

they_o no_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o salvation_n but_o the_o treatiser_n will_v prove_v out_o of_o that_o which_o i_o have_v write_v that_o they_o be_v meritorious_a &_o that_o faith_n only_o do_v not_o justify_v that_o good_a work_n be_v meritorious_a he_o endeavour_v 110._o to_o prove_v because_o i_o confess_v that_o man_n justify_v free_o by_o grace_n be_v crown_v in_o the_o world_n to_o

be_v nor_o can_v be_v any_o righteousness_n and_o they_o add_v hereunto_o that_o they_o that_o true_o repent_v of_o their_o sin_n shall_v most_o firm_o and_o with_o great_a assurance_n of_o faith_n resolve_v that_o they_o please_v god_n for_o christ_n sake_n who_o be_v a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o they_o because_o he_o be_v a_o worker_n of_o propitiation_n a_o high_a priest_n and_o a_o

which_o his_o conjecture_n i_o think_v will_v be_v find_v more_o than_o probable_a for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v in_o the_o justification_n of_o a_o sinner_n three_o thing_n be_v employ_v 1_o
