but_o that_o we_o must_v confess_v our_o fault_n one_o to_o another_o that_o be_v reciprocal_o as_o say_v s._n james._n 5.16_o whereof_o it_o follow_v forsooth_o that_o if_o a_o woman_n prostitute_v herself_o to_o her_o curate_n confess_v her_o sin_n unto_o he_o her_o curate_n ought_v reciprocal_o to_o confess_v his_o sin_n to_o she_o and_o so_o to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o s._n james_n who_o in_o this_o place_n speak_v not_o of_o the_o people_n confess_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o priest_n but_o of_o that_o confession_n that_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o make_v to_o his_o

for_o another_o for_o as_o we_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v for_o the_o priest_n only_o but_o for_o every_o one_o that_o stand_v in_o need_n so_o must_v we_o not_o confess_v ourselves_o to_o the_o priest_n

demand_v that_o faith_n only_o justify_v answer_n this_o demand_n be_v fraudulent_a and_o doubtful_a or_o ambiguous_a first_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v expound_v whether_o he_o mean_v of_o justification_n before_o god_n or_o before_o man_n for_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n but_o before_o god_n have_v but_o two_o

faith_n not_o by_o work_n and_o galat._n 2._o vers_fw-la 9_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n now_o that_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o 1_o law_n he_o also_o understand_v the_o work_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n the_o whole_a course_n of_o the_o epistle_n do_v show_v for_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n he_o say_v curse_v be_v

love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o some_o jesuit_n do_v say_v that_o faith_n justify_v because_o it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o our_o regeneration_n as_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v that_o a_o man_n knowledge_n consist_v in_o know_v a_o a._n and_o a_o b._n because_o he_o begin_v by_o they_o but_o s._n paul_n phil._n 3.9_o and_o in_o many_o other_o place_n oppose_v the_o righteousness_n by_o the_o law_n to_o the_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n cut_v off_o this_o shift_n for_o as_o the_o righteousness_n by_o the_o law_n be_v the_o same_o which_o consist_v whole_o in_o the_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n even_o so_o the_o righteousness_n by_o faith_n be_v the_o same_o which_o consist_v whole_o in_o faith_n otherwise_o there_o be_v no_o opposition_n and_o in_o the_o four_o to_o the_o roman_n he_o maintain_v that_o abraham_n and_o david_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o work_n yet_o he_o speak_v of_o they_o not_o as_o when_o they_o begin_v or_o before_o they_o begin_v to_o be_v regenerate_v but_o when_o they_o be_v well_o forward_o in_o godliness_n namely_o when_o abraham_n offer_v his_o son_n and_o when_o david_n write_v the_o 32._o psalm_n in_o which_o psalm_n david_n say_v s._n paul_n declare_v that_o man_n beatitude_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o god_n impute_v unto_o he_o righteousness_n without_o work_n i'faith_o therefore_o can_v be_v without_o work_n yet_o do_v it_o justify_v alone_o and_o without_o work_n as_o our_o eye_n be_v not_o without_o our_o ear_n yet_o do_v they_o only_o see_v and_o that_o without_o any_o help_n of_o the_o ear_n xvi_o demand_v that_o when_o the_o

man_n yet_o not_o to_o pay_v god_n to_o correct_v our_o unjustice_n yet_o not_o to_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n and_o these_o be_v exercise_n and_o trial_n not_o payment_n which_o can_v be_v make_v after_o the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v and_o this_o do_v we_o prove_v 1._o because_o god_n be_v no_o mocker_n neither_o do_v he_o contradict_v himself_o but_o it_o be_v a_o mockery_n to_o forgive_v a_o
