finis_fw-la another_o brief_a confession_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o the_o same_o herebefore_n and_o the_o same_o author_n for_o much_o as_o god_n be_v perfect_o right_a i_o wise_n and_o just_a and_o all_o man_n whole_o and_o altogether_o sinner_n than_o out_o of_o these_o two_o thing_n must_v needs_o be_v that_o either_o god_n must_v renounce_v his_o ryghteousnes_n and_o justice_n which_o can_v be_v or_o all_o man_n without_o exception_n be_v utter_o lose_v and_o condemn_v except_o they_o satisfy_v ful_o and_o perfect_o the_o divine_a justice_n but_o he_o satisfy_v perfect_o the_o divine_a two_o justice_n which_o pay_v all_o that_o be_v owe_v to_o god_n wherefore_o we_o must_v first_o seek_v what_o it_o be_v that_o man_n owe_v to_o god_n &_o then_o whether_o he_o be_v able_a to_o pay_v he_o thyrd_o if_o we_o can_v find_v in_o ourselves_o wherewith_o to_o pay_v he_o we_o must_v see_v then_o where_o we_o may_v borowe_n to_o pay_v that_o we_o perish_v not_o by_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n wherefore_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v iii_o what_o it_o be_v that_o man_n owe_v to_o god_n we_o must_v consider_v the_o form_n and_o manner_n of_o the_o oblygation_n wherein_o we_o be_v bind_v in_o our_o creation_n and_o what_o be_v write_v in_o the_o two_o table_n of_o the_o law_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o love_n god_n above_o all_o thing_n and_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n and_o our_o neighbour_n as_o ourselves_o so_o it_o be_v aparent_a that_o we_o owe_v to_o be_v pay_v perfect_v love_n to_o god_n and_o to_o our_o neighbour_n but_o how_o can_v this_o be_v do_v if_o first_o we_o four_o be_v not_o natural_o apt_a and_o incline_v to_o do_v this_o for_o experience_n teach_v that_o our_o nature_n be_v clean_o contrary_a to_o this_o for_o all_o man_n of_o themselves_o or_o of_o their_o own_o will_v be_v incline_v rather_o to_o hate_v god_n and_o their_o neighbour_n contrary_a to_o love_v now_o if_o our_o own_o nature_n draw_v we_o to_o hate_v how_o can_v we_o pay_v the_o love_n which_o we_o do_v owe_v of_o this_o we_o may_v gather_v three_o conclusion_n v_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o all_o man_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v hater_n of_o god_n be_v corrupt_v then_o it_o follow_v that_o they_o can_v only_o pay_v that_o they_o do_v owe_v but_o also_o they_o bound_v themselves_o daily_o more_o and_o more_o and_o endebte_n themselves_o by_o new_a sin_n to_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v necessary_o that_o either_o all_o man_n without_o exception_n must_v be_v condemn_v or_o else_o find_v some_o one_o that_o will_v pay_v their_o debt_n now_o where_o shall_v we_o find_v such_o a_o vi_o pledge_n or_o suretye_n that_o be_v meet_a and_o able_a to_o do_v it_o certaynlye_o in_o no_o place_n among_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v create_v for_o if_o we_o search_v among_o the_o angel_n the_o answer_n be_v ready_a the_o angel_n be_v not_o bind_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n for_o the_o ryghteousnes_n of_o god_n can_v demand_v of_o the_o angel_n that_o which_o man_n owe_v and_o also_o there_o be_v stir_v up_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n which_o must_v be_v bear_v and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o angel_n themselves_o be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v so_o great_a a_o burden_n but_o if_o angel_n be_v insufficient_a and_o unable_a vii_o to_o bear_v so_o great_a a_o burden_n what_o creature_n can_v be_v find_v that_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o wherefore_o we_o must_v necessary_o have_v refuge_n to_o some_o one_o that_o be_v more_o mighty_a than_o all_o creature_n and_o also_o that_o must_v be_v very_o man_n for_o if_o he_o be_v not_o more_o myghtyer_n than_o any_o creature_n that_o be_v to_o say_v very_a god_n he_o can_v not_o bear_v the_o burden_n of_o the_o wrath_n and_o ire_n of_o god_n but_o shall_v himself_o be_v overwhelm_v under_o it_o then_o much_o less_o can_v he_o satisfy_v for_o other_o and_o if_o he_o be_v not_o a_o man_n how_o shall_v he_o delyver_v man_n by_o his_o satisfaction_n it_o be_v necessary_a then_o that_o a_o mediator_n be_v find_v which_o be_v god_n and_o man_n and_o such_o one_o be_v jesus_n christ_n as_o

that_o he_o be_v of_o nature_n meet_v to_o suffer_v that_o which_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v to_o be_v revenge_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n for_o if_o be_v only_o be_v god_n
