thou_o be_v yet_o thou_o have_v somewhat_o wherein_o thou_o must_v confess_v thyself_o a_o sinner_n before_o god_n here_o be_v our_o salvation_n the_o free_a mercy_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o

have_v this_o only_a of_o grace_n by_o no_o right_a but_o because_o god_n only_o have_v promise_v this_o of_o his_o mercy_n neither_o our_o work_n of_o what_o kind_n soever_o they_o be_v be_v so_o

say_v the_o suffering_n of_o this_o life_n be_v not_o worthy_a the_o glory_n we_o shall_v have_v and_o the_o same_o paul_n say_v the_o weight_n of_o eternal_a glory_n above_o all_o measure_n surpass_v all_o the_o suffering_n of_o this_o life_n and_o of_o these_o he_o collect_v that_o we_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n and_o not_o of_o work_n lest_o any_o man_n shall_v glory_v and_o last_o so_o that_o

that_o david_n just_o cry_v out_o if_o thou_o lord_n shall_v extreme_o mark_v what_o be_v do_v amiss_o who_o may_v abide_v it_o furthermore_o our_o good_a work_n have_v some_o imperfection_n in_o they_o yea_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o be_v infect_v with_o vain_a glory_n or_o with_o some_o other_o fault_n of_o the_o old_a man_n so_o that_o it_o be_v true_o say_v all_o our_o righteousness_n be_v like_o a_o defile_a cloth_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o david_n pray_v enter_v not_o into_o judgement_n with_o thy_o servant_n for_o in_o thy_o sight_n shall_v no_o man_n live_v be_v justify_v if_o therefore_o our_o righteousness_n can_v stand_v in_o god_n sight_n how_o can_v it_o open_a heaven_n unto_o we_o or_o deserve_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n but_o christ_n dare_v appear_v before_o god_n because_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o all_o other_o be_v damn_v and_o quite_o undo_v he_o only_o have_v the_o favour_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n he_o only_o possess_v righteousness_n and_o to_o conclude_v he_o only_o have_v in_o himself_o all_o the_o good_a gift_n of_o god_n also_o only_o his_o righteousness_n be_v acceptable_a to_o his_o father_n because_o it_o be_v mingle_v with_o no_o sin_n yea_o it_o be_v most_o pure_a have_v proceedeed_o from_o the_o great_a love_n and_o charity_n of_o his_o father_n that_o all_o the_o

alone_o can_v deserve_v for_o we_o the_o open_n of_o heaven_n the_o love_n of_o his_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o this_o word_n therefore_o christ_n will_v humble_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o presume_v of_o ourselves_o nor_o of_o our_o own_o righteousness_n not_o that_o we_o shall_v do_v no_o good_a but_o that_o we_o shall_v acknowledge_v ourselves_o unprofitable_a

against_o which_o all_o the_o assault_n of_o his_o enemy_n can_v be_v able_a to_o do_v nothing_o by_o this_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o christ_n build_v not_o his_o church_n upon_o peter_n as_o a_o

that_o there_o may_v be_v two_o meaning_n of_o this_o place_n the_o first_o whereunto_o chrysostome_n agree_v if_o the_o dead_a rise_v not_o again_o what_o do_v they_o which_o be_v baptize_v for_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v for_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o dead_a for_o as_o chrysostome_n say_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n they_o which_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v repeat_v the_o whole_a creed_n wherein_o be_v this_o place_n i_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a in_o which_o hope_n of_o rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a they_o be_v baptize_v which_o otherwise_o will_v never_o have_v be_v baptize_v and_o have_v change_v their_o old_a life_n unless_o they_o hope_v that_o they_o shall_v arise_v to_o a_o immortal_a life_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o paul_n call_v to_o
