just_a shall_v live_v by_o faith_n alone_o now_o to_o believe_v true_o in_o god_n according_a to_o the_o receive_a use_n of_o scripture_n be_v to_o adhere_v to_o he_o by_o love_n and_o this_o our_o

to_o the_o four_o what_o you_o urge_v out_o of_o s._n luke_n gospel_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o the_o context_n show_n of_o servant_n that_o do_v what_o they_o be_v command_v only_o to_o do_v

of_o our_o body_n which_o you_o seem_v to_o draw_v into_o the_o same_o conclusion_n beside_o as_o to_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o commandment_n do_v you_o think_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o text_n be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o merit_n at_o all_o due_a to_o that_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v so_o understand_v must_v the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o between_o he_o that_o do_v his_o duty_n well_o and_o

you_o will_v have_v they_o be_v so_o too_o and_o this_o will_v not_o only_o throw_v confusion_n into_o all_o divinity_n but_o will_v be_v the_o destruction_n of_o all_o civil_a government_n and_o

the_o five_o i_o answer_v perfect_o as_o to_o your_o first_o for_o that_o text_n of_o s._n john_n can_v be_v understand_v of_o a_o bare_a belief_n but_o such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v accompany_v with_o

who_o plant_v all_o their_o religion_n in_o ceremony_n and_o neglect_v the_o weighty_a matter_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v the_o true_a good_a work_n and_o always_o command_v not_o censure_v by_o

speak_v comparative_o between_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o of_o the_o gospel_n for_o the_o legal_a purity_n compare_v to_o the_o evangelicall_n be_v impurity_n itself_o as_o our_o righteousness_n compare_v to_o god_n be_v no_o righteousness_n so_o our_o saviour_n tell_v we_o 19.17_o luke_n 18._o mat._n 19.17_o that_o none_o be_v good_a but_o one_o that_o be_v god_n because_o our_o goodness_n compare_v to_o god_n goodness_n be_v no_o goodness_n be_v no_o goodness_n to_o your_o next_o text_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o only_o infer_v that_o there_o be_v none_o so_o righteous_a but_o at_o sometime_o sin_n not_o that_o a_o man_n when_o he_o do_v well_o sin_n then_o to_o what_o you_o allege_v out_o of_o the_o psalm_n it_o be_v very_o plain_a that_o the_o prophet_n david_n beg_v of_o god_n that_o he_o will_v not_o judge_v he_o according_a to_o his_o own_o divine_a righteousness_n that_o be_v so_o absolute_o pure_a and_o without_o sin_n for_o so_o say_v he_o 25.21_o psal_n 25.21_o no_o flesh_n live_a can_v be_v justify_v for_o he_o say_v in_o another_o psalm_n let_v integrity_n and_o uprightness_n preserve_v i_o for_o i_o wait_v on_o thou_o last_o of_o all_o to_o what_o you_o urge_v so_o hard_o out_o of_o s._n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n s._n paul_n himself_o answer_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o next_o chapter_n there_o be_v therefore_o now_o no_o

jesus_n have_v make_v i_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n that_o be_v both_o from_o sin_n and_o the_o punishment_n of_o it_o 8._o rom._n 8._o and_o so_o proceed_v to_o show_v that_o though_o there_o be_v a_o repugnancy_n in_o the_o law_n of_o the_o flesh_n to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n yet_o they_o that_o mind_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n shall_v be_v judge_v according_o and_o no_o sin_n impute_v to_o they_o which_o i_o conceive_v clean_o contrary_a to_o the_o sense_n that_o you_o will_v impose_v upon_o the_o apostle_n now_o mrs._n n._n i_o must_v desire_v you_o to_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o follow_v my_o former_a method_n and_o to_o return_v to_o you_o some_o text_n that_o as_o i_o conceive_v do_v express_o conclude_v our_o church_n doctrine_n which_o be_v that_o faith_n do_v not_o nor_o can_v suffice_v without_o work_n and_o that_o work_n be_v something_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n that_o be_v meritorious_a of_o eternal_a life_n by_o the_o

conceive_v enough_o say_v on_o your_o part_n against_o it_o so_o i_o conceive_v i_o have_v say_v sufficient_o for_o it_o in_o my_o reply_n to_o those_o two_o part_n of_o it_o confession_n and_o satisfaction_n to_o which_o i_o refer_v you_o so_o i_o shall_v make_v it_o my_o business_n now_o to_o prove_v the_o other_o four_o to_o be_v sacrament_n and_o of_o divine_a institution_n and_o i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o sacrament_n of_o confirmation_n every_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sensible_a sign_n have_v a_o infallible_a assistance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o such_o i_o prove_v confirmation_n to_o be_v by_o most_o express_a scripture_n thus_o we_o find_v in_o the_o act_n that_o when_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v at_o jerusalem_n hear_v that_o samaria_n have_v receive_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 17._o act._n 8.14.15_o 16_o 17._o they_o send_v unto_o they_o peter_n and_o john_n who_o when_o they_o be_v come_v down_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n f●r_v as_o yet_o he_o be_v fall_v upon_o none_o of_o they_o only_o they_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n then_o lay_v they_o their_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o they_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n here_o be_v manifest_o a_o confirmation_n after_o baptism_n and_o a_o sensible_a sign_n to_o wit_n imposition_n of_o hand_n by_o which_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v confer_v and_o that_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o sacrament_n again_o we_o find_v in_o another_o chapter_n of_o the_o same_o act_n 6._o act._n 19.2.3_o 4_o 5_o 6._o that_o paul_n be_v at_o ephesus_n and_o find_v some_o disciple_n there_o say_v unto_o they_o have_v you_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n since_o ●e_v believe_v and_o they_o say_v unto_o he_o we_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o hear_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o holy_a ghost_n and_o be_v say_v unto_o they_o unto_o what_o then_o be_v you_o baptize_v and_o they_o say_v unto_o he_o john_n baptism_n than_o say_v paul_n john_n very_o baptize_v with_o the_o boptism_n of_o repentance_n say_v unto_o the_o people_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v on_o he_o which_o shall_v come_v after_o he_o that_o be_v on_o christ_n jesus_n when_o they_o hear_v this_o they_o believe_v on_o christ_n jesus_n and_o when_o paul_n bid_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v on_o they_o and_o they_o speak_v with_o tongue_n and_o prophesy_v here_o be_v i_o say_v again_o after_o belief_n and_o baptism_n a_o imposition_n of_o hand_n by_o which_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v fer_v now_o that_o this_o sacrament_n waa_o institute_v by_o christ_n himself_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o gospel_n 16._o john_n 16._o where_o he_o promise_v his_o apostle_n the_o comforter_n his_o holy_a spirit_n with_o which_o they_o shall_v be_v confirm_v by_o virtue_n from_o above_o now_o the_o mission_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o time_n of_o penticost_n either_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o confirmation_n itself_o or_o instead_o of_o it_o 10._o mark_n 11.13_o 14._o matth._n 10._o again_o we_o find_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o bring_v young_a child_n to_o christ_n that_o be_v shall_v touch_v they_o and_o his_o disciple_n rebuke_v they_o that_o bring_v they_o but_o when_o jesus_n see_v it_o be_v be_v displease_v and_o say_v suffer_v the_o little_a child_n to_o come_v to_o i_o for_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n now_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o he_o do_v either_o institute_v this_o sacrament_n then_o or_o at_o least_o infinuate_v it_o so_o enough_o i_o coceive_v say_v to_o that_o now_o that_o the_o sacramnot_v of_o order_n be_v institute_v likewise_o by_o christ_n himself_o and_o with_o a_o sensible_a sign_n conferr_v grace_n i_o prove_v this_o by_o express_a scripture_n first_o we_o find_v that_o when_o jesus_n have_v call_v unto_o he_o his_o twelve_o disciple_n 10.1_o mat._n 10.1_o he_o give_v they_o power_n against_o unclean_a spirets_n and_o to_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o sickness_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o disease_n then_o again_o jesus_n go_v up_o into_o the_o mountain_n and_o call_v unto_o he_o wh●m_o he_o will_v and_o they_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o he_o make_v that_o twelve_o shall_v be_v with_o he_o 6.7_o mark_n 6.7_o and_o he_o send_v they_o to_o preach_v etc._n etc._n and_o after_o these_o thing_n the_o lord_n appoint_v other_o seventy_o also_o and_o send_v they_o tweand_a two_o before_o his_o face_n into_o every_o city_n and_o place_n whither_o he_o himself_o will_v come_v then_o again_o we_o find_v 10.1_o luk_n 10.1_o that_o take_v bread_n he_o break_v it_o give_v thanks_o and_o say_n this_o be_v my_o body_n etc._n etc._n do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o then_o last_o of_o all_o look_n into_o st._n john_n gospel_n and_o you_o will_v find_v yet_o a_o more_o express_a ordination_n and_o mission_n as_o my_o father_n h●th_v since_o i_o so_o send_v i_o
