etc._n in_o which_o word_n of_o athanasius_n we_o confess_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o last_o judgement_n wherein_o the_o just_a judge_n will_v render_v to_o every_o one_o according_a to_o the_o

not_o for_o the_o merit_n of_o work_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o faith_n and_o of_o christ_n righteousness_n merciful_o impute_v unto_o they_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o need_n of_o judgement_n nor_o

the_o protestant_n that_o all_o the_o work_n of_o just_a man_n be_v sin_n 14._o for_o these_o be_v caluin_n word_n no_o work_n can_v pass_v from_o holy_a man_n which_o do_v not_o deserve_v the_o

and_o deserve_v the_o just_a reward_n of_o reproach_n and_o if_o just_a man_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o give_v account_n of_o their_o deed_n true_o the_o unjust_a shall_v be_v much_o less_o able_a to_o do_v it_o to_o what_o purpose_n then_o shall_v we_o all_o stand_v before_o the_o tribunal_n of_o christ_n to_o render_v account_n of_o our_o own_o action_n but_o perhaps_o they_o will_v say_v that_o all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o just_o be_v unclean_a and_o filthy_a but_o their_o filth_n shall_v be_v cover_v by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o the_o work_v repute_v as_o clean_o to_o the_o faithful_a for_o christ._n but_o if_o this_o be_v true_a then_o shall_v there_o be_v no_o need_n as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o of_o the_o justice_n of_o a_o judge_n but_o of_o the_o mercy_n of_o a_o father_n and_o liberality_n of_o a_o prince_n therefore_o to_o what_o purpose_n do_v the_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n say_v that_o christ_n shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o that_o all_o man_n shall_v render_v account_n of_o their_o own_o deed_n and_o why_o do_v the_o apostle_n say_v reposita_fw-la est_fw-la mihi_fw-la corona_fw-la iustitiae_fw-la

the_o cardinal_n exclude_v not_o god_n mercy_n from_o his_o judgement_n as_o you_o shall_v hear_v even_o now_o m._n andrews_n charge_v he_o but_o infer_v 3._o inference_n thing_n upon_o the_o

by_o the_o merit_n of_o good_a work_n and_o the_o three_o follow_v direct_o of_o the_o former_a to_o wit_n that_o the_o only_a mercy_n and_o
liberality_n of_o god_n be_v not_o to_o have_v place_n in_o his_o last_o judgement_n as_o it_o shall_v have_v if_o calvin_n doctrine_n be_v true_a but_o also_o his_o justice●_n and_o therefore_o upon_o this_o it_o follow_v direct_o as_o the_o cardinal_n argue_v very_o well_o that_o whosoever_o believe_v calvin_n doctrine_n in_o this_o behalf_n do_v not_o believe_v the_o article_n of_o the_o
