think_v themselves_o able_a thereby_o utter_o to_o overthrow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n which_o we_o teach_v and_o maintain_v therefore_o we_o must_v be_v well_o furnish_v and_o arm_v that_o we_o may_v be_v able_a not_o only_o to_o instruct_v our_o brethren_n but_o also_o to_o answer_v the_o objection_n of_o our_o adversary_n the_o schoolman_n and_o all_o such_o as_o understand_v not_o the_o

same_o unto_o spiritual_a matter_n wherein_o they_o deal_v most_o perverse_o and_o wicked_o we_o must_v take_v good_a heed_n that_o we_o make_v a_o difference_n between_o christian_a divinity_n and_o

again_o they_o grant_v that_o a_o work_n moral_o wrought_v be_v not_o good_a except_o there_o be_v first_o a_o right_a judgement_n of_o reason_n and_o a_o good_a will_n or_o a_o good_a intent_n so_o then_o they_o will_v have_v a_o right_a judgement_n of_o reason_n and_o a_o good_a intent_n to_o go_v before_o the_o work_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o make_v the_o person_n moral_o righteous_a before_o the_o work_n contrariwise_o in_o divinity_n and_o in_o spiritual_a matter_n where_o they_o ought_v most_o of_o all_o so_o to_o do_v such_o dull_a and_o senseless_a ass_n they_o be_v that_o they_o pervert_v and_o turn_v all_o quite_o contrary_a place_v the_o work_n before_o right_a reason_n and_o the_o good_a intent_n wherefore_o this_o word_n do_v be_v one_o thing_n in_o nature_n spiritual_o a_o other_o in_o moral_a philosophy_n &_o a_o other_o in_o divinity_n in_o nature_n the_o tree_n must_v be_v first_o and_o then_o the_o fruit_n in_o moral_a philosophy_n do_v require_v a_o good_a intent_n &_o sound_a reason_n to_o work_v well_o to_o go_v before_o philosophy_n and_o here_o all_o the_o philosopher_n stay_v &_o go_v no_o further_o therefore_o the_o divine_n say_v that_o moral_a philosophy_n have_v not_o god_n for_o the_o object_n &_o final_a cause_n for_o aristotle_n a_o sadduce_n or_o a_o man_n of_o any_o civil_a honesty_n call_v this_o a_o right_a reason_n &_o a_o good_a intent_n if_o he_o seek_v the_o public_a commodity_n of_o the_o common_a wealth_n &_o the_o quietness_n &_o honesty_n thereof_o a_o philosopher_n or_o lawworker_n ascend_v no_o high_a he_o think_v not_o through_o right_a reason_n &_o a_o good_a intent_n to_o obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n &_o everlasting_a life_n as_o the_o sophister_n or_o the_o monk_n do_v therefore_o the_o heathen_a philosopher_n be_v much_o better_o they_o such_o a_o hypocrite_n for_o he_o abide_v within_o his_o limit_n have_v only_a consideration_n of_o the_o honesty_n and_o tranquillity_n of_o the_o common_a wealth_n not_o mingle_v heavenly_a and_o earthly_a thing_n together_o contrariwise_o that_o sophister_n imagine_v that_o god_n regard_v his_o good_a intent_n and_o work_n therefore_o he_o mingle_v earthly_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n together_o and_o pollute_v the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o this_o imagination_n he_o learn_v out_o of_o moral_a philosophy_n save_v that_o he_o abuse_v it_o much_o worse_o than_o the_o heathen_a man_n do_v we_o therefore_o that_o be_v christian_n work_n must_v rise_v up_o high_o than_o nature_n &_o philosophy_n with_o this_o word_n do_v so_o that_o now_o it_o must_v be_v make_v altogether_o new_a join_v with_o a_o right_a judgement_n of_o reason_n &_o a_o good_a will_n or_o good_a intent_n not_o moral_o but_o divine_o which_o be_v that_o i_o know_v &_o believe_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o god_n have_v send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o redeem_v we_o from_o sin_n &_o death_n here_o do_v be_v a_o new_a thing_n unknown_a to_o reason_n to_o philosopher_n to_o lawworker_n &_o unto_o all_o man_n for_o it_o be_v a_o wisdom_n hide_v in_o a_o mystery_n therefore_o in_o divinity_n the_o work_n necessary_o require_v faith_n go_v before_o work_v therefore_o when_o our_o adversary_n do_v allege_v against_o we_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o scripture_n touch_v the_o law_n and_o work_n where_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o work_v and_o do_v thou_o must_v answer_v they_o that_o they_o be_v term_n pertain_v to_o divinity_n and_o not_o to_o natural_a or_o moral_a thing_n if_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o natural_a or_o moral_a thing_n they_o must_v be_v take_v in_o their_o own_o signification_n but_o if_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o matter_n of_o divinity_n they_o must_v include_v such_o a_o right_a reason_n and_o good_a

that_o faithful_a do_v for_o in_o divinity_n we_o have_v no_o other_o right_a reason_n and_o good_a will_n or_o intent_n beside_o faith._n work_n this_o rule_n be_v well_o observe_v in_o the_o .11_o

impossible_a for_o you_o to_o follow_v the_o guide_v of_o the_o spirit_n in_o all_o thing_n without_o any_o feeling_n or_o hindrance_n of_o the_o flesh_n nay_o the_o flesh_n will_v resist_v and_o so_o

in_o spirit_n and_o say_v i_o be_o a_o sinner_n and_o i_o feel_v sin_n in_o i_o for_o i_o have_v not_o yet_o put_v of_o the_o flesh_n in_o which_o sin_n dwell_v so_o long_o as_o it_o live_v but_o i_o will_v obey_v the_o spirit_n and_o not_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v spirit_n i_o will_v by_o faith_n and_o hope_n lie_v hold_v upon_o christ_n and_o by_o his_o word_n i_o will_v raise_v up_o myself_o and_o be_v so_o raise_v up_o i_o will_v not_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v very_o profitable_a for_o the_o godly_a to_o know_v this_o and_o to_o bear_v it_o well_o in_o mind_n for_o it_o wonderful_o comfort_v they_o when_o they_o be_v tempt_v when_o i_o be_v a_o monk_n i_o think_v by_o and_o by_o that_o i_o be_v utter_o cast_v away_o if_o at_o any_o time_n i_o feel_v the_o

will_v do_v i_o shall_v not_o have_v so_o miserable_o torment_v myself_o but_o shall_v have_v think_v and_o say_v to_o myself_o as_o now_o common_o i_o do_v say_v martin_n thou_o shall_v not_o utter_o be_v without_o sin_n for_o thou_o have_v flesh_n thou_o shall_v therefore_o feel_v the_o battle_n thereof_o according_a to_o that_o say_n of_o paul_n the_o flesh_n resist_v the_o spirit_n despair_v not_o therefore_o but_o resist_v it_o strong_o and_o fulfil_v not_o the_o lust_n thereof_o thus_o do_v thou_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n before_o i_o remember_v that_o staupitius_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v i_o have_v vow_v unto_o god_n above_o a_o thousand_o time_n that_o i_o will_v become_v a_o better_a man_n but_o i_o never_o perform_v that_o which_o i_o vow_v hereafter_o i_o will_v make_v no_o such_o vow_n for_o i_o have_v now_o learned_a by_o experience_n that_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o perform_v it_o unless_o therefore_o god_n be_v favourable_a and_o merciful_a unto_o i_o for_o

all_o my_o good_a deed_n to_o stand_v before_o he_o this_o be_v not_o only_o a_o true_a desperation_n but_o also_o a_o godly_a &_o a_o holy_a desperation_n and_o this_o must_v all_o they_o confess_v both_o with_o mouth_n and_o heart_n which_o will_v be_v save_v for_o the_o godly_a trust_v not_o to_o their_o own_o righteousness_n but_o say_v with_o david_n enter_v not_o into_o judgement_n with_o

look_v unto_o christ_n their_o reconciler_n who_o give_v his_o life_n for_o their_o sin_n moreover_o they_o know_v that_o the_o remnant_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v in_o their_o flesh_n sin_n be_v not_o

to_o he_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a turn_n unto_o good_a 28_o for_o when_o the_o flesh_n provoke_v he_o to_o sin_n by_o occasion_n thereof_o he_o be_v stir_v up_o and_o enforce_v to_o seek_v
