justification_n or_o be_v put_v into_o a_o state_n of_o justification_n by_o the_o free_a pardon_n 5.19_o rom._n 4.8_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o or_o not_o impute_v of_o sinâ_n past_a this_o grace_n he_o

work_n as_o be_v due_o consequent_a unto_o it_o all_o those_o who_o be_v convert_v from_o heathenism_n or_o judaisme_n unto_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n be_v by_o that_o first_o act_n and_o

engagement_n of_o this_o faith_n but_o because_o this_o faith_n if_o it_o be_v unfeigned_a do_v imply_v a_o engagement_n of_o the_o believer_n to_o all_o good_a work_n of_o love_n anâ_n obedience_n to_o the_o command_n of_o the_o saviour_n the_o lorâ_n jesus_n therefore_o this_o right_n of_o justification_n conferrââ_n upon_o the_o condition_n of_o such_o a_o engagement_n can_v nâ_n be_v beld_v without_o work_n and_o consequent_o salvation_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o final_a conpletion_n of_o this_o justification_n unto_o life_n 5.18_o rom._n 5.18_o ãâã_d not_o attainable_a without_o they_o but_o stiâ_n good_a work_n have_v their_o acceptance_n and_o validity_n unâ_n the_o reward_n of_o salvation_n by_o virtue_n of_o faith_n in_o chriâ_n the_o only_a saviour_n and_o his_o merit_n so_o that_o they_o ãâã_d concur_v to_o salvation_n only_o as_o verification_n of_o our_o since_o faith_n in_o christ_n it_o be_v this_o faith_n that_o must_v be_v the_o plâ_n of_o a_o sinner_n for_o his_o final_a justification_n at_o the_o last_o judgement_n but_o this_o plea_n can_v never_o be_v make_v good_a unless_o thâ_n faith_n be_v find_v free_a from_o any_o contradiction_n

of_o abraham_n that_o offer_v up_o his_o only_a son_n isaac_n at_o the_o command_n of_o god_n 2._o not_o of_o the_o same_o work_n s._n james_n speak_v of_o evangelical_n work_v do_v in_o and_o with_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o messiah_n and_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o gospel_n whilst_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o legal_a work_n or_o work_n of_o the_o law_n as_o such_o nor_o three_o of_o the_o same_o
