sin_n for_o us._n and_o in_o this_o very_a sense_n faith_n only_o be_v say_v to_o justify_v because_o it_o only_o apprehend_v christ_n satisfaction_n for_o which_o only_o and_o not_o for_o our_o work_n also_o god_n count_v we_o for_o just_a and_o this_o answer_n be_v enough_o for_o solute_v the_o argument_n propound_v yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o reader_n be_v to_o be_v put_v in_o

man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o a_o dead_a faith_n but_o by_o a_o live_a faith_n which_o of_o itself_o bring_v forth_o good_a work_n and_o although_o it_o be_v not_o find_v express_o write_v faith_n only_o justifi_v yet_o be_v there_o find_v a_o sentence_n of_o equal_a force_n namely_o a_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v but_o by_o faith_n gal._n 2.16_o beside_o as_o touch_v the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o assumption_n it_o be_v false_a that_o the_o scripture_n require_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o sacrament_n unto_o justification_n as_o though_o none_o can_v be_v justify_v without_o the_o sacrament_n neither_o can_v it_o be_v prove_v from_o that_o place_n joh._n 3._o except_o a_o man_n be_v bear_v again_o for_o christ_n speak_v not_o there_o of_o baptism_n but_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o regenerate_v which_o he_o compare_v to_o water_n branch_n the_o 4._o principal_a argument_n which_o have_v three_o branch_n 1._o branch_n the_o 4._o argument_n bellarmine_n fetch_v from_o the_o manner_n of_o justify_v of_o faith_n and_o this_o he_o part_v into_o three_o the_o first_o be_v faith_n justifi_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o cause_n therefore_o it_o justifi_v not_o only_o i_o answer_v i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n for_o although_o faith_n justifi_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o cause_n yet_o it_o justifi_v alone_o for_o it_o justifi_v as_o a_o instrumental_a cause_n apprehend_v christ_n satisfaction_n for_o which_o only_o we_o be_v justify_v and_o there_o be_v no_o other_o instrumental_a cause_n whereby_o christ_n satisfaction_n be_v apprehend_v the_o other_o argument_n branch_n 2._o branch_n faith_n be_v the_o beginning_n formal_a cause_n of_o justification_n therefore_o it_o justifi_v not_o only_o to_o prove_v the_o antecedent_n these_o say_n

the_o begin_n of_o justification_n act._n 15._o by_o faith_n purify_n their_o heart_n and_o what_o be_v pureness_n of_o heart_n say_v bellarmine_n but_o justice_n either_o begin_v or_o perfect_v i_o answer_v i_o deny_v the_o antecedent_n and_o i_o deny_v that_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o the_o say_n allege_v for_o rom._n 4._o faith_n be_v say_v to_o be_v repute_v for_o justice_n in_o this_o sense_n for_o that_o justice_n be_v impute_v unto_o a_o man_n by_o faith_n for_o so_o the_o apostle_n there_o say_v in_o the_o word_n next_o join_v to_o they_o that_o david_n say_v the_o man_n be_v bless_v to_o who_o god_n impute_v justice_n namely_o by_o faith_n as_o we_o may_v perceive_v by_o confer_v of_o the_o word_n that_o go_v before_o as_o also_o by_o conference_n of_o that_o phrase_n so_o much_o use_v of_o paul_n wherein_o he_o say_v that_o god_n justifi_v man_n through_o faith_n of_o faith_n by_o faith_n now_o to_o justify_v and_o to_o impute_v justice_n be_v of_o equal_a force_n with_o the_o same_o apostle_n next_o 1._o cor._n 3._o by_o the_o name_n of_o foundation_n be_v understand_v christ_n as_o the_o apostle_n himself_o plain_o affirm_v that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n namely_o of_o his_o person_n and_o office_n for_o he_o there_o handle_v christian_n doctrine_n and_o not_o justification_n bellarmine_n therefore_o sophistical_o wre_v the_o name_n foundation_n unto_o justification_n as_o though_o he_o treat_v there_o of_o the_o foundation_n that_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o justification_n now_o act._n 15._o peter_n faith_n their_o heart_n be_v purify_v by_o faith_n because_o by_o faith_n the_o heart_n be_v certify_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n purge_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n to_o wit_n so_o as_o that_o no_o sin_n be_v impute_v to_o us._n there_o before_o pureness_n of_o heart_n be_v evil_o restrain_v of_o bellarmine_n unto_o pureness_n or_o justice_n inherent_a when_o as_o there_o be_v also_o pureness_n or_o justice_n impute_v the_o three_o argument_n stray_v from_o the_o question_n propound_v for_o it_o conclude_v a_o diverse_a thing_n namely_o thus_o faith_n obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n &_o after_o a_o sort_n also_o deserve_v it_o therefore_o it_o justifi_v not_o because_o it_o apprehend_v the_o promise_n the_o antecedent_n he_o prove_v from_o luk._n 7._o where_o our_o lord_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n thy_o faith_n have_v make_v thou_o safe_a but_o if_o faith_n do_v only_o receive_v mercy_n it_o can_v not_o right_o be_v say_v to_o save_v for_o who_o will_v say_v to_o a_o poor_a man_n that_o only_o reach_v out_o his_o hand_n for_o alm_n thy_o hand_n have_v get_v the_o alm_n or_o who_o will_v say_v to_o a_o sick_a man_n that_o with_o his_o hand_n take_v the_o medicine_n thy_o hand_n have_v cure_v thou_o of_o thy_o disease_n i_o answer_v it_o follow_v not_o faith_n make_v safe_a therefore_o it_o save_v by_o obtain_v and_o deserve_v for_o the_o word_n make_v in_o general_n note_v a_o efficient_a cause_n and_o from_o the_o general_a to_o the_o special_a the_o consequence_n follow_v not_o affirmative_o and_o how_o faith_n make_v safe_a we_o must_v learn_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n which_o declare_v the_o nature_n and_o force_n of_o faith_n in_o justify_v no_o otherwise_o then_o by_o relation_n unto_o christ_n satisfaction_n as_o the_o object_n which_o it_o apprehend_v and_o apply_v to_o a_o man_n as_o rom._n 3._o by_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n gal._n 2._o who_o have_v love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o etc._n etc._n and_o although_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v say_v thy_o hand_n have_v get_v thy_o alm_n yet_o may_v one_o right_o say_v to_o he_o that_o be_v enrich_v by_o receive_v alm_n thy_o hand_n have_v make_v thou_o rich_a for_o if_o he_o have_v not_o take_v the_o alm_n he_o have_v not_o be_v enrich_v so_o our_o faith_n have_v not_o make_v for_o we_o christ_n satisfaction_n but_o yet_o by_o receive_v it_o it_o enrich_v and_o justifi_v us._n final_o when_o it_o be_v say_v faith_n justifi_v it_o be_v a_o *_o figurative_a speech_n to_o be_v understand_v thus_o god_n justifi_v a_o believer_n because_o of_o christ_n satisfaction_n which_o he_o apprehend_v by_o faith_n bellarmine_n bring_v also_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n to_o confirm_v his_o antecedent_n namely_o rom_n 4._o abraham_n be_v comfort_v by_o faith_n give_v glory_n to_o god_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o also_o be_v it_o count_v unto_o he_o for_o justice_n in_o this_o place_n the_o apostle_n show_v the_o cause_n why_o abraham_n faith_n be_v count_v justice_n because_o in_o believe_v he_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n therefore_o that_o faith_n please_v god_n by_o which_o he_o be_v glorify_v and_o therefore_o for_o desert_n of_o that_o faith_n which_o notwithstanding_o be_v his_o gift_n and_o grace_n he_o justify_v abraham_n also_o rom._n 10._o whosoever_o shall_v call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v save_v how_o shall_v they_o call_v upon_o he_o be_v who_o they_o have_v not_o believe_v how_o shall_v they_o believe_v without_o a_o preacher_n where_o s._n paul_n say_v bellarmine_n as_o he_o make_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n the_o cause_n of_o faith_n so_o he_o make_v faith_n the_o cause_n of_o invocation_n and_o invocation_n the_o cause_n of_o save_v that_o be_v of_o justification_n whereby_o we_o understand_v say_v he_o further_o that_o faith_n by_o invocation_n obtain_v justification_n i'faith_o therefore_o justifi_v not_o relative_o to_o wit_n by_o accept_v justification_n offer_v last_o in_o the_o 11._o to_o the_o heb._n the_o apostle_n teach_v by_o many_o example_n that_o man_n please_v god_n by_o faith_n &_o by_o this_o that_o faith_n be_v of_o great_a price_n and_o merit_n with_o god_n i_o answer_v although_o that_o place_n rom._n 4._o may_v seem_v much_o to_o favour_v bellarmine_n opinion_n yet_o if_o one_o look_v thorough_o into_o it_o &_o consider_v the_o apply_v
