saint_n peter_n say_v that_o saint_n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n have_v write_v certain_a thing_n which_o be_v hard_a to_o be_v understand_v and_o which_o the_o unlearned_a and_o unstable_a do_v

saint_n james_n write_v his_o epistle_n and_o prove_v therein_o that_o good_a work_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n hereupon_o we_o may_v observe_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o that_o a_o error_n in_o this_o point_n alone_o be_v by_o the_o judgement_n of_o saint_n peter_n to_o work_v their_o destruction_n who_o embrace_v it_o and_o the_o other_o that_o the_o

this_o author_n go_v on_o still_o upon_o a_o false_a ground_n as_o if_o we_o say_v that_o all_o error_n in_o faith_n that_o may_v damn_v man_n be_v fundamental_a and_o express_o against_o some_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n whereas_o we_o have_v often_o affirm_v that_o any_o error_n though_o not_o fundamental_a may_v damn_v man_n that_o by_o a_o lively_a faith_n hold_v not_o right_o the_o fundamental_o and_o so_o be_v without_o christ._n and_o it_o seem_v that_o these_o man_n be_v not_o well_o ground_v and_o found_v by_o fundamental_o in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o saint_n peter_n call_v unlearned_a and_o unstable_a and_o their_o error_n the_o error_n of_o the_o wicked_a a_o generation_n of_o viper_n turn_v wholesome_a food_n into_o poison_n and_o abuse_v scripture_n to_o their_o own_o condemnation_n but_o second_o that_o faith_n do_v not_o justify_v but_o that_o good_a work_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n be_v most_o untrue_a and_o against_o saint_n augustine_n himself_o untrue_a for_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o not_o by_o his_o own_o merit_n which_o in_o your_o language_n be_v good_a work_n as_o divers_a of_o your_o own_o author_n 16._o affirm_v and_o a_o man_n in_o the_o instant_n of_o his_o justification_n may_v die_v before_o he_o have_v have_v time_n to_o do_v good_a work_n and_o yet_o his_o justification_n may_v be_v good_a and_o it_o be_v against_o saint_n 10._o austin_n even_o in_o the_o same_o place_n whence_o the_o former_a say_n of_o saint_n peter_n be_v take_v where_o you_o may_v find_v that_o common_o know_a sentence_n of_o he_o opera_fw-la sequuntur_fw-la justificatum_fw-la non_fw-la praecedunt_fw-la justificandum_fw-la good_a work_n follow_v justification_n and_o do_v not_o go_v before_o it_o so_o that_o while_o this_o author_n observe_v two_o thing_n he_o give_v more_o than_o two_o scandal_n to_o his_o reader_n for_o first_o he_o charge_v false_o not_o saint_n austin_n only_o but_o saint_n james_n with_o hold_v this_o error_n that_o good_a work_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n and_o then_o second_o he_o will_v make_v he_o to_o say_v that_o the_o not_o hold_v of_o this_o error_n be_v a_o error_n which_o may_v work_v their_o destruction_n that_o embrace_v it_o yea_o three_o that_o the_o apostle_n creed_n be_v no_o good_a rule_n to_o let_v we_o know_v all_o the_o fundamental_a point_n of_o faith_n because_o it_o speak_v no_o one_o word_n to_o teach_v we_o that_o the_o cavalier_n error_n be_v a_o fundamental_a point_n of_o faith_n last_o his_o own_o doctor_n do_v bring_v into_o their_o explicite_n our_o faith_n in_o christ_n 20._o passion_n &_o resurrection_n for_o justification_n but_o not_o this_o his_o article_n that_o good_a work_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o why_o do_v he_o require_v it_o of_o we_o in_o our_o fundamental_n sect_n ii_o wherein_o his_o exception_n against_o the_o 39_o article_n of_o religion_n establish_v in_o this_o church_n be_v answer_v but_o have_v quarrel_v in_o vain_a with_o the_o creed_n to_o prove_v the_o
