speak_v to_o the_o capernait_v in_o a_o metaphorical_a but_o also_o they_o take_v the_o cup_n from_o the_o laity_n as_o though_o they_o be_v unworthy_a to_o bear_v in_o their_o memory_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o their_o precious_a and_o immortal_a soul_n as_o concern_v the_o office_n of_o christ_n i_o firm_o hold_v and_o believe_v that_o

his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o which_o by_o his_o priestly_a office_n he_o deliver_v from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n sin_n death_n and_o hell_n and_o that_o by_o shed_v his_o own_o precious_a blood_n for_o god_n redeem_v the_o world_n by_o his_o own_o blood_n so_o the_o scripture_n teach_v we_o act._n 20.28_o now_o as_o to_o these_o office_n of_o christ_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n err_v exceed_o

this_o church_n also_o err_v as_o to_o the_o sacerdotal_a office_n of_o christ_n when_o even_o to_o this_o very_a day_n the_o priest_n offer_v he_o up_o in_o their_o idolatrous_a mass_n a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o the_o sin_n both_o of_o the_o quick_a and_o dead_a seeing_z it_o be_v not_o only_o apparent_a out_o of_o daniel_n that_o sacrifice_n and_o oblation_n be_v to_o cease_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o messiah_n and_o that_o christ_n by_o one_o oblation_n of_o himself_o perfect_v for_o ever_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v be_v that_o which_o be_v but_o one_o be_v

namely_o that_o it_o be_v accomplish_v by_o that_o one_o oblation_n of_o himself_o once_o for_o all_o but_o also_o because_o none_o can_v be_v priest_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n according_a to_o

suffer_v to_o continue_v by_o reason_n of_o death_n as_o to_o their_o distinction_n of_o a_o bloody_a and_o unbloudy_a sacrifice_n as_o also_o of_o primary_n and_o secondary_a priest_n because_o not_o ground_v upon_o the_o scripture_n we_o reject_v it_o with_o the_o same_o facility_n as_o they_o propound_v it_o to_o this_o office_n of_o christ_n it_o appertain_v that_o by_o his_o merit_n he_o make_v we_o worthy_a of_o divine_a justification_n for_o all_o be_v it_o god_n justify_v the_o ungodly_a as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o do_v not_o justify_v such_o a_o

justification_n according_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o impute_v unto_o we_o for_o any_o desert_n that_o be_v in_o we_o but_o only_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o christ_n

contend_v say_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n by_o which_o mean_n they_o confound_v justification_n with_o sanctification_n whereas_o the_o apostle_n say_v therefore_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v no_o flesh_n live_v be_v justify_v and_o again_o that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v to_o all_o by_o faith_n yea_o he_o direct_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o true_a it_o be_v the_o romanist_n themselves_o grant_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n but_o so_o as_o that_o it_o be_v by_o a_o work_n which_o yet_o be_v false_a because_o the_o apostle_n oppose_v work_n to_o faith_n for_o this_o cause_n faith_n be_v to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o it_o be_v a_o relation_n or_o a_o hand_n to_o apply_v a_o plaster_n to_o the_o fore_n of_o sin_n which_o not_o by_o any_o virtue_n of_o its_o own_o but_o by_o efficacy_n of_o some_o virtue_n apply_v to_o the_o thing_n itself_o make_v we_o heir_n of_o eternal_a life_n st._n james_n indeed_o say_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o not_o by_o faith_n only_o but_o that_o i_o may_v pass_v by_o the_o interpretation_n of_o some_o that_o will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o justification_n in_o another_o world_n when_o the_o work_n of_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v sift_v and_o examine_v it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o these_o word_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o be_v destitute_a of_o good_a work_n and_o which_o be_v dead_a without_o they_o which_o very_a thing_n we_o also_o assert_v when_o we_o do_v by_o no_o mean_n separate_v work_n from_o faith_n but_o always_o profess_v that_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v join_v with_o good_a work_n or_o in_o short_a that_o a_o active_a and_o work_a faith_n render_v we_o just_a before_o god_n tribunal_n therefore_o faith_n only_o justify_v we_o but_o yet_o that_o faith_n must_v not_o be_v alone_o or_o separate_v from_o good_a work_n no_o otherwise_o then_o as_o the_o eye_n only_o see_v but_o not_o the_o eye_n that_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n and_o the_o hand_n only_o weigh_v any_o thing_n but_o not_o unless_o it_o be_v join_v with_o the_o body_n moreover_o as_o justification_n be_v to_o be_v take_v in_o a_o forinsecal_v sense_n as_o we_o have_v show_v so_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o it_o be_v wrought_v in_o a_o infant_n and_o not_o by_o part_n and_o therefore_o upon_o that_o account_n i_o reject_v purgatory_n because_o the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v the_o punishment_n shall_v be_v remit_v also_o neither_o do_v this_o make_v any_o thing_n against_o our_o proposition_n that_o god_n sometime_o send_v diverse_a affliction_n even_o upon_o just_a person_n for_o these_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o category_n or_o predicament_n of_o fatherly_a correction_n rather_o than_o to_o that_o of_o punishment_n for_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n rom._n 8.1_o neither_o do_v those_o fear_n to_o which_o the_o faithful_a be_v subject_a signify_v so_o much_o a_o servile_a dread_a as_o a_o filial_a reverence_n because_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o work_v out_o our_o salvation_n with_o

because_o it_o have_v more_o assertion_n of_o it_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n than_o detractor_n from_o it_o i_o need_v not_o much_o dispute_n about_o it_o neither_o do_v the_o account_n of_o brevity_n require_v that_o i_o shall_v enumerate_v the_o several_a question_n of_o prescience_n prevision_n and_o predestination_n as_o thing_n formal_o different_a among_o themselves_o see_v we_o

its_o formal_a signification_n differ_v from_o predestination_n as_o a_o selection_n out_o of_o a_o number_n of_o multitude_n do_v from_o the_o end_n to_o which_o the_o object_n as_o consider_v in_o themselves_o be_v destine_v and_o design_v but_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o i_o do_v not_o admit_v of_o any_o foresight_n of_o work_n which_o may_v in_o the_o least_o belong_v to_o those_o that_o be_v foreknow_v and_o the_o establishment_n of_o their_o own_o salvation_n for_o god_n choose_v no_o man_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o work_n foresee_v but_o that_o they_o may_v perform_v these_o good_a work_n after_o they_o be_v choose_v all_o which_o thing_n be_v well_o consider_v i_o perceive_v a_o plain_a distinction_n to_o arise_v betwixt_o the_o church_n visible_a and_o invisible_a not_o so_o much_o that_o the_o universal_a church_n be_v to_o be_v call_v invisible_a from_o its_o outward_a non-appearance_n to_o man_n but_o from_o the_o internal_a quality_n of_o it_o because_o though_o many_o belong_v to_o the_o outward_a communion_n yet_o god_n only_o know_v who_o be_v he_o and_o from_o hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o i_o to_o give_v a_o answer_n to_o that_o famous_a objection_n of_o the_o papist_n where_o be_v the_o reform_a church_n before_o luther_n and_o calvin_n time_n namely_o that_o
