own_o work_n perform_v in_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n can_v stand_v together_o christ_n die_v to_o purchase_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o justification_n for_o his_o people_n but_o if_o any_o

together_o that_o no_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n be_v evident_a for_o the_o just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n or_o the_o just_a by_o faith_n shall_v live_v and_o the_o law_n be_v not_o of_o faith_n but_o the_o man_n that_o do_v they_o shall_v live_v in_o they_o justification_n righteousness_n everlasting_a life_n and_o salvation_n be_v obtain_v by_o

covenant_n of_o another_o nature_n the_o man_n that_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v live_v in_o they_o there_o be_v no_o possibility_n of_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n unless_o a_o man_n can_v perfect_o fulfil_v it_o this_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o do_v 1._o because_o of_o the_o corruption_n of_o his_o nature_n which_o be_v every_o way_n contrary_a to_o the_o

conceive_v that_o this_o apostle_n james_n here_o direct_v his_o speech_n to_o this_o end_n s●il_n to_o show_v the_o vanity_n and_o folly_n of_o those_o who_o deceive_v themselves_o with_o a_o

satisfaction_n and_o righteousness_n but_o their_o faith_n be_v not_o sound_a it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o true_o receive_v christ_n into_o the_o heart_n whereby_o believer_n be_v make_v

spirit_n and_o therefore_o he_o say_v ver_fw-la 20._o faith_n without_o work_n be_v dead_a so_o it_o be_v a_o work_a faith_n which_o justify_v because_o such_o a_o faith_n alone_o do_v true_o lie_v hold_v of_o christ_n and_o his_o righteousness_n on_o the_o other_o side_n holiness_n and_o good_a work_n do_v not_o at_o all_o justify_v believer_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n but_o evidence_n the_o person_n to_o be_v justify_v because_o they_o show_v that_o such_o by_o faith_n unfeigned_a be_v unite_v unto_o christ_n who_o righteousness_n alone_o do_v justify_v and_o therefore_o he_o say_v 14._o what_o do_v it_o profit_v my_o brethren_n if_o a_o man_n say_v he_o have_v faith_n and_o have_v not_o work_n can_v faith_n save_v he_o he_o speak_v of_o such_o as_o say_v they_o have_v faith_n not_o of_o those_o that_o have_v a_o lively_a save_a faith_n indeed_o so_o ver_fw-la 19_o he_o speak_v to_o such_o thou_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v one_o god_n thou_o do_v well_o the_o devil_n also_o
