satisfy_v god_n justice_n god_n therefore_o only_o for_o christ_n passion_n and_o resurrection_n sake_n be_v merciful_a to_o our_o sin_n and_o lay_v they_o not_o to_o our_o charge_n but_o impute_v

teach_v and_o believe_v with_o the_o apostle_n that_o the_o sinner_n be_v iustify_v by_o only_a faith_n in_o christ_n and_o not_o by_o the_o law_n or_o by_o any_o work_n for_o the_o apostle_n say_v 4._o rom._n 4._o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o law_n again_o if_o abraham_n be_v iustify_v by_o work_n he_o have_v whereof_o

that_o work_v not_o but_o beleve_v in_o he_o that_o justifi_v the_o ungodly_a his_o faith_n be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o rightuousnesse_n and_o again_o you_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n through_o

our_o righteousness_n and_o impute_v all_o thing_n to_o god_n free_a favour_n in_o christ_n therefore_o be_v justification_n father_v upon_o faith_n howbeit_o for_o christ_n sake_n and_o not_o because_o it_o be_v our_o work_n for_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o that_o we_o receyve_v christ_n by_o faith_n the_o lord_n himself_o show_v by_o many_o word_n in_o the_o six_o of_o john_n where_o he_o put_v eat_v for_o believe_v and_o believe_v for_o eat_v for_o like_a as_o we_o receive_v food_n by_o eat_v so_o do_v we_o participate_v of_o christ_n by_o believe_v therefore_o i_o divide_v not_o the_o benefit_n of_o justification_n partly_o to_o god_n grace_n or_o to_o christ_n and_o partly_o to_o ourselves_o or_o to_o our_o own_o charity_n and_o work_n or_o to_o our_o own_o

be_v yet_o unrighteous_a and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v first_o justify_v before_o we_o can_v love_v or_o do_v good_a work_n but_o we_o be_v justify_v as_o i_o say_v afore_o by_o
