as_o be_v both_o profitable_a and_o necessary_a fort_n profitable_a first_o because_o by_o they_o we_o may_v make_v sure_a our_o call_n and_o our_o election_n 10._o as_o peter_n teach_v they_o be_v so_o many_o testimony_n unto_o we_o thereof_o true_a indeed_o it_o be_v 9_o that_o we_o be_v elect_v without_o respect_n of_o work_n 28._o and_o we_o be_v call_v by_o grace_n not_o according_a to_o

elect_v call_v justify_v and_o shall_v be_v save_v as_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o give_v diligence_n that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o firm_a knowledge_n of_o these_o thing_n we_o be_v not_o to_o pry_v into_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o god_n but_o we_o be_v to_o examine_v ourselves_o by_o our_o fruit_n for_o both_o we_o and_o other_o be_v to_o be_v discern_v by_o our_o fruit_n as_o our_o saviour_n say_v 201_o by_o their_o fruit_n you_o shall_v know_v they_o do_v man_n gather_v grape_n of_o thorn_n or_o ●igges_n of_o thistle_n a_o bad_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n by_o the_o fruit_n therefore_o of_o righteousness_n we_o may_v evident_o discern_v ourselves_o to_o be_v sanctify_v and_o none_o be_v sanctify_v but_o such_o as_o first_o be_v justify_v and_o whosoever_o be_v justify_v be_v effectual_o call_v and_o none_o be_v effectual_o call_v but_o such_o as_o be_v elect_v and_o none_o be_v elect_v but_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v save_v 18._o to_o this_o purpose_n james_n show_v that_o the_o faith_n whereby_o we_o be_v justify_v must_v be_v demonstrate_v by_o good_a work_n 14._o and_o john_n affirm_v that_o by_o the_o the_o love_n of_o our_o brethren_n which_o be_v all_o

shall_v be_v pronounce_v for_o although_o unto_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n good_a work_n do_v not_o concur_v as_o any_o cause_n thereof_o yet_o in_o the_o subject_n that_o be_v the_o party_n justify_v they_o concur_v as_o fruit_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o consequent_n of_o our_o justification_n for_o as_o breathe_v be_v such_o a_o fruit_n or_o consequent_a of_o life_n as_o where_o that_o

those_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o according_a to_o the_o main_a promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o that_o righteousness_n and_o obedience_n of_o christ_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n &_o not_o by_o or_o for_o any_o righteousness_n inherent_a in_o we_o or_o obedience_n perform_v by_o we_o be_v we_o make_v son_n &_o heir_n of_o god_n entitle_v

the_o fruit_n either_o of_o faith_n or_o infidelity_n take_v for_o grant_v that_o in_o those_o who_o be_v member_n of_o the_o true_a visible_a church_n where_o good_a work_n be_v there_o be_v faith_n and_o where_o be_v no_o good_a work_n there_o be_v no_o faith_n and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o as_o we_o desire_v either_o to_o have_v assurance_n of_o our_o salvation_n while_o we_o live_v

son_n and_o heir_n of_o god_n we_o be_v first_o to_o restrain_v this_o part_n of_o the_o lord_n answer_v to_o that_o subject_n whereof_o david_n question_n be_v propound_v namely_o to_o those_o who_o live_v in_o the_o true_a visible_a church_n and_o profess_v the_o name_n and_o religion_n of_o god_n of_o these_o because_o there_o be_v many_o hypocrite_n and_o unsound_a professor_n among_o they_o david_n desire_v to_o be_v inform_v who_o be_v the_o true_a professor_n the_o lord_n answer_v he_o that_o work_v righteousness_n and_o so_o by_o his_o good_a work_n do_v demonstrat_fw-la his_o faith_n there_o be_v many_o work_v material_o good_a to_o be_v find_v not_o only_o among_o heretic_n and_o idolatour_n as_o the_o papist_n but_o also_o among_o turk_n and_o pagan_n but_o we_o speak_v not_o
