unto_o who_o obedience_n be_v to_o be_v give_v by_o work_n when_o we_o behold_v ourselves_o consider_n our_o own_o corruption_n we_o be_v admonish_v that_o we_o ourselves_o do_v not_o imagine_v work_n by_o which_o we_o think_v to_o worship_v god_n for_o by_o ourselves_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o either_o please_v or_o displease_v god_n and_o the_o lord_n pronounce_v that_o he_o be_v worship_v in_o vain_a with_o the_o commandment_n of_o man_n let_v we_o therefore_o certain_o think_v that_o work_n albeit_o fair_a and_o goodly_a which_o have_v be_v invent_v of_o man_n be_v in_o no_o

of_o they_o do_v not_o please_v god_n it_o be_v fit_o therefore_o demand_v how_o good_a work_n may_v please_v to_o the_o which_o question_n we_o answer_v in_o general_a that_o they_o please_v in_o the_o regenerate_a the_o work_n of_o scipio_n do_v not_o please_v because_o he_o be_v not_o regenerate_v but_o the_o warfare_n of_o david_n do_v please_v because_o david_n be_v accept_v by_o faith_n but_o here_o be_v three_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o order_n first_o we_o must_v certain_o think_v concern_v the_o person_n that_o he_o be_v reconcile_v by_o faith_n and_o just_a for_o christ_n sake_n free_o then_o we_o must_v confess_v that_o the_o person_n justify_v by_o faith_n can_v as_o yet_o satisfy_v the_o law_n for_o many_o inward_a sin_n do_v abide_v and_o stick_v even_o in_o the_o godly_a this_o uncleanness_n be_v to_o be_v lament_v and_o doubt_n and_o evil_a affection_n be_v to_o be_v resist_v and_o strive_v against_o and_o also_o we_o ought_v to_o pray_v with_o true_a sigh_n of_o the_o heart_n that_o god_n will_v not_o impute_v unto_o we_o this_o filthiness_n wherein_o we_o be_v wrap_v three_o although_o we_o acknowledge_v this_o our_o filthiness_n notwithstanding_o we_o must_v certain_o think_v that_o god_n do_v require_v a_o certain_a unperfect_a obedience_n in_o we_o &_o that_o this_o unperfect_a obedience_n do_v please_v for_o christ_n sake_n for_o so_o peter_n do_v plain_o teach_v offer_v up_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n acceptable_a to_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v our_o reconciliation_n and_o now_o make_v intercession_n for_o us._n god_n our_o obedience_n therefore_o do_v not_o please_v god_n for_o the_o worthiness_n or_o perfection_n thereof_o for_o by_o itself_o it_o be_v unworthy_a to_o come_v into_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v it_o fulfil_v the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v say_v but_o it_o please_v because_o of_o the_o person_n reconcile_v which_o for_o christ_n sake_n be_v count_v righteous_a so_o also_o do_v he_o please_v although_o he_o carry_v about_o in_o the_o flesh_n sin_n and_o great_a infirmity_n see_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o a_o man_n be_v in_o no_o wise_a justify_v by_o work_n work_n it_o may_v fit_o also_o may_v be_v demand_v what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o good_a work_n by_o which_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v stir_v up_o and_o prick_v forward_o to_o work_v well_o there_o be_v number_v three_o most_o

in_o this_o that_o the_o man_n convert_v or_o regenerate_v be_v now_o the_o son_n of_o god_n according_a to_o that_o say_n he_o give_v power_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o they_o that_o

may_v be_v testimony_n that_o god_n will_v yea_o even_o in_o this_o life_n keep_v and_o preserve_v his_o church_n wherefore_o paul_n say_v 1._o tim._n 4._o godliness_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o

to_o they_o that_o be_v obedient_a and_o disherit_v they_o that_o be_v disobedient_a so_o god_n the_o father_n promise_v inheritance_n to_o his_o child_n but_o those_o which_o of_o child_n be_v make_v
