A97227 Vnbeleevers no subjects of iustification, nor of mystical vnion to Christ, being the sum of a sermon preached at New Sarum, with a vindication of it from the objections, and calumniations cast upon it by Mr. William Eyre, in his VindiciƦ justificationis. Together with animadversions upon the said book, and a refutation of that anti-sidian, and anti-evangelical errour asserted therein: viz. the justification of infidels, or the justification of a sinner before, and without faith. Wherein also the conditional necessity, and instrumentality of faith unto justification, together with the consistency of it, with the freness of Gods grace, is explained, confirmed, and vindicated from the exceptions of the said Mr. Eyre, his arguments answertd [sic], his authorities examined, and brought in against himself. By T. Warren minister of the Gospel at Houghton in Hampshire. Warren, Thomas, 1616 or 17-1694. 1654 (1654) Wing W980; Thomason E733_10; ESTC R206901 226,180 282

due_a to_o christ_n be_v attribute_v to_o faith_n because_o it_o alone_o be_v the_o only_a instrument_n to_o apply_v christ_n righteousness_n unto_o justification_n now_o the_o apostle_n to_o prevent_v a_o mistake_n lest_o any_o shall_v think_v because_o faith_n be_v our_o act_n that_o therefore_o we_o be_v save_v by_o something_o in_o we_o he_o answer_v that_o though_o it_o be_v our_o

to_o glory_n in_o himself_o therefore_o god_n will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v by_o grace_n receive_v by_o faith_n that_o no_o man_n may_v boast_v in_o the_o ten_o verse_n the_o apostle_n have_v show_v that_o our_o salvation_n be_v only_o of_o grace_n and_o the_o mean_n by_o which_o we_o be_v make_v capable_a of_o all_o save_a good_a in_o christ_n by_o faith_n exclude_v all_o cause_n in_o man_n lest_o he_o shall_v boast_v he_o lay_v down_o a_o new_a reason_n why_o we_o can_v be_v save_v by_o work_n because_o in_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n we_o be_v whole_o god_n workmanship_n in_o christ_n create_v to_o good_a work_n and_o we_o be_v as_o mere_o passive_a in_o this_o work_n as_o in_o the_o first_o work_n of_o creation_n for_o as_o no_o creature_n contribute_v any_o thing_n to_o its_o own_o be_v and_o as_o there_o be_v no_o disposition_n in_o man_n to_o make_v himself_o a_o man_n so_o there_o be_v natural_o no_o ability_n in_o we_o to_o contribute_v any_o thing_n to_o our_o new_a creation_n therefore_o see_v all_o we_o have_v and_o be_v enable_v to_o do_v be_v by_o grace_n we_o be_v not_o save_v
in_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n oh_o what_o a_o bless_a unspeakable_a mercy_n be_v this_o without_o which_o christ_n himself_o will_v not_o save_v we_o and_o therefore_o though_o the_o world_n slight_v the_o word_n preach_v yet_o if_o we_o do_v right_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o mean_n of_o union_n to_o christ_n we_o shall_v think_v it_o a_o great_a blessing_n than_o to_o be_v make_v heir_n of_o the_o world_n and_o shall_v god_n take_v it_o away_o from_o a_o people_n it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a loss_n than_o the_o sun_n out_o of_o the_o firmament_n but_o if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o
