be_v good_a work_n to_o be_v do_v ¶_o answer_n first_o because_o god_n have_v command_v they_o all_o creature_n serve_v god_n and_o be_v make_v to_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n it_o be_v evident_a then_o that_o seinge_v that_o man_n ought_v to_o show_v obedience_n unto_o god_n god_n commandment_n be_v the_o first_o &_o chief_a cause_n why_o we_o shall_v do_v good_a work_n and_o in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v command_v good_a work_n it_o follow_v of_o the_o same_o cause_n that_o they_o that_o exercise_v not_o themselves_o in_o well_o work_v but_o continue_v in_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n commanndemente_n deserve_v everla_a pain_n how_o be_v it_o god_n punish_v sin_n in_o this_o life_n also_o with_o infinite_a misery_n this_o they_o be_v a_o other_o cause_n which_o ought_v to_o steer_v up_o our_o mind_n to_o work_v well_o that_o we_o fall_v not_o into_o everlasting_a pain_n for_o so_o paul_n say_v i._o corhin_n vi_fw-la err_v not_o neither_o adulterer_n nor_o worshipper_n

good_a work_n be_v very_o necessary_a for_o that_o that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o a_o true_a faith_n and_o a_o certain_a trust_n in_o christ_n can_v stand_v without_o perfect_v conversion_n unto_o god_n or_o with_o sin_n which_o be_v commit_v against_o a_o man_n conscience_n these_o thing_n appear_v plain_o by_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o faith_n for_o faith_n be_v that_o assent_n to_o the_o gospel_n out_o of_o which_o there_o arise_v a_o sure_a confidence_n of_o god_n mercy_n promise_v for_o christ_n sake_n but_o such_o a_o trust_n can_v not_o stand_v with_o a_o purpose_n of_o sin_v wherein_o there_o be_v a_o manifest_a comtempte_n of_o god_n and_o a_o undoubted_a provocation_n of_o god_n wrath_n by_o reason_n of_o this_o fight_v between_o faith_n and_o sin_n paul_n say_v

promise_n of_o god_n reward_n minister_fw-fr the_z forth_o cause_n of_o good_a work_n for_o it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n that_o his_o most_o ample_a promise_n shall_v be_v preach_v to_o
