the_o most_o part_n when_o christ_n or_o faith_n be_v teach_v that_o be_v that_o our_o work_n be_v nothing_o that_o we_o be_v only_o justify_v by_o faith_n straight_a way_n certain_a justiciaries_n object_n if_o faith_n alone_o do_v justify_v than_o we_o must_v cease_v altogether_o to_o do_v good_a work_n then_o good_a work_n be_v to_o be_v omit_v and_o leave_v undo_v the_o apostle_n answer_v

only_o a_o external_a sign_n which_o do_v not_o justify_v but_o which_o do_v signify_v unto_o man_n that_o a_o man_n be_v inward_o justify_v before_o god_n and_o they_o do_v testify_v and_o approve_v as_o certain_a sign_n and_o fruit_n that_o livelie_a faith_n which_o work_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o this_o as_o by_o the_o most_o grave_a weighty_a and_o authentik_a example_n the_o apostle_n do_v confirm_v &_o build_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n his_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n deliver_v out_o and_o teach_v in_o the_o three_o chapter_n furthermore_o the_o apostle_n allege_v the_o testimony_n of_o david_n in_o the_o 32._o psal_n to_o prove_v this_o matter_n also_o in_o most_o plain_a word_n he_o affirm_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o the_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n without_o work_n although_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o work_n do_v follow_v those_o that_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n moreover_o he_o dilate_v and_o amplifi_v the_o example_n against_o all_o other_o work_v of_o the_o law_n infer_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o therefore_o straight_o way_n the_o true_a heir_n of_o abraham_n because_o their_o stock_n and_o pedigrue_a be_v derive_v from_o the_o circumcise_a abraham_n or_o because_o they_o receive_v the_o law_n unless_o they_o tread_v and_o follow_v the_o step_n of_o say_v and_o believe_v in_o christ_n imitate_v the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n special_o and_o chief_o see_v that_o abraham_n before_o the_o law_n whether_o it_o be_v of_o moses_n or_o of_o the_o circumcision_n be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n and_o call_v the_o father_n of_o many_o nation_n that_o be_v of_o all_o believer_n final_o he_o conclude_v thus_o see_v that_o the_o law_n can_v give_v that_o effectual_a work_n whereby_o it_o may_v willing_o and_o cheerful_o be_v satisfy_v also_o see_v that_o the_o grudge_n and_o murmur_v stir_v up_o by_o the_o law_n abide_v and_o remain_v in_o we_o and_o disdain_v &_o take_v it_o grievous_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o positive_a â—aw_v set_v down_o for_o she_o i_o say_v that_o this_o hatred_n against_o the_o law_n and_o the_o law_n giver_n god_n himself_o still_o continue_v it_o can_v be_v that_o â—he_n work_v of_o

incense_v and_o kindle_v the_o indignation_n &_o wrath_n of_o god_n wherefore_o faith_n only_o do_v obtain_v the_o blessing_n and_o grace_n promise_v to_o abraham_n now_o it_o be_v not_o write_v for_o

courageous_a &_o bold_a confidence_n and_o a_o stout_a and_o manful_a perseverance_n and_o patient_a in_o tribulation_n and_o affliction_n for_o straight_a way_n these_o fruit_n follow_v wheresoever_o this_o true_a faith_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n sure_o that_o most_o excellent_a riches_n and_o abundant_a wealth_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n offer_v and_o exhibit_v to_o we_o in_o christ_n who_o god_n will_v have_v die_v for_o we_o when_o we_o be_v as_o yet_o weakling_n yea_o enemy_n to_o god_n if_o so_o be_v by_o faith_n it_o be_v know_v &_o acknowledge_v of_o we_o in_o our_o heart_n it_o

which_o by_o other_o argument_n be_v evident_a and_o clear_a enough_o for_o if_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o surly_a if_o any_o other_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n may_v have_v justify_v aught_o
