observe_v in_o this_o definition_n the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o the_o efficient_a cause_n faith_n the_o instrumental_a the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o formal_a god_n glory_n and_o the_o edification_n of_o

we_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v enable_v to_o do_v good_a work_n only_o by_o the_o grace_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n renew_v our_o heart_n when_o as_o it_o do_v incline_v our_o

second_o as_o faith_n can_v be_v without_o good_a work_n so_o good_a work_n can_v not_o be_v where_o there_o be_v no_o faith_n whereupon_o we_o condemn_v their_o error_n who_o bold_o avouch_v that_o

yet_o do_v we_o not_o say_v that_o they_o be_v therefore_o respect_v of_o god_n as_o though_o by_o they_o we_o deserve_v either_o to_o be_v justify_v before_o he_o or_o to_o be_v make_v his_o child_n

because_o we_o hold_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o 9_o thridlie_n see_v the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n which_o give_v the_o form_n unto_o good_a work_n that_o be_v the_o name_n of_o true_a goodness_n we_o avouch_v that_o none_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o have_v no_o other_o ground_n then_o the_o bare_a will_n or_o reason_n of_o man_n can_v be_v reckon_v among_o good_a work_n 10_o in_o like_a manner_n that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o do_v well_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o what_o he_o do_v be_v find_v to_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n of_o

in_o this_o life_n no_o not_o though_o we_o be_v assist_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n live_v according_a unto_o the_o prescript_n of_o god_n law_n but_o rather_o our_o good_a work_n be_v stain_v with_o many_o blemish_n yet_o they_o do_v please_v god_n not_o for_o any_o worthiness_n of_o they_o but_o partly_o because_o our_o defect_n be_v cover_v by_o the_o holiness_n merit_n and_o intercession_n of_o christ_n and_o partly_o because_o god_n do_v of_o favour_n approve_v and_o crown_v they_o not_o as_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o but_o as_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o spirit_n in_o we_o and_o
