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

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
