than_o these_o two_o thing_n christ_n and_o my_o work_n must_v be_v right_o discern_v and_o sever_a one_o from_o the_o other_o for_o this_o be_v plain_a even_o to_o he_o that_o be_v blind_a that_o

and_o like_a unto_o either_o of_o they_o than_o a_o mortal_a man_n and_o a_o sinner_n be_v unto_o christ_n the_o lord_n who_o be_v not_o only_o a_o pure_a and_o holy_a man_n free_a from_o all_o spot_n and_o blot_n but_o be_v moreover_o god_n also_o therefore_o let_v the_o law_n and_o the_o pureness_n of_o thy_o heart_n yea_o and_o thy_o good_a conscience_n avail_v in_o earth_n only_o towards_o man_n but_o where_o the_o mercy_n seat_n be_v to_o wit_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o mediator_n between_o thou_o &_o god_n thither_o no_o man_n work_n &_o merit_n ought_v

must_v without_o exception_n conclude_v that_o he_o be_v a_o other_o thing_n than_o our_o life_n lead_v before_o man_n with_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n albeit_o it_o be_v lead_v

into_o one_o part_n but_o my_o faith_n must_v fly_v and_o leap_v far_o unto_o a_o other_o part_n and_o join_v itself_o unto_o he_o which_o be_v pure_a and_o have_v no_o sin_n of_o who_o the_o scripture_n speak_v he_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v confound_v because_o he_o be_v present_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o father_n and_o make_v intercession_n for_o i_o moreover_o he_o give_v i_o his_o own_o pureness_n and_o holiness_n that_o be_v clothe_v and_o adorn_v therewith_o i_o may_v be_v able_a to_o stand_v before_o god_n and_o all_o wrath_n and_o displeasure_n may_v
