at_o once_o into_o we_o and_o this_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o mark_v for_o two_o cause_n the_o first_o to_o decide_v that_o question_n so_o much_o demand_v whether_o faith_n apply_v christ_n in_o each_o of_o his_o merit_n particular_o or_o no_o to_o which_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n the_o father_n to_o proportion_v the_o merit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o particular_a to_o the_o soul_n need_n its_o god_n the_o father_n who_o accept_v the_o merit_n and_o therefore_o he_o only_o can_v proportion_v it_o poor_a finite_a faith_n though_o it_o know_v never_o so_o much_o of_o the_o particular_a merit_n yet_o can_v do_v it_o because_o the_o merit_n be_v infinite_a i'faith_o only_o hear_v the_o offer_n of_o god_n already_o reconcile_v and_o appease_v by_o this_o merit_n to_o be_v free_o tender_v to_o she_o receave_v this_o tender_a as_o god_n make_v it_o that_o be_v all_o the_o lord_n jesus_n make_v by_o god_n to_o the_o soul_n wisdom_n righteousness_n and_o what_o else_o soever_o so_o that_o whether_o we_o comprehend_v the_o thing_n offer_v or_o no_o it_o be_v no_o material_a if_o we_o believe_v the_o offer_n to_o be_v true_o make_v to_o we_o we_o receive_v it_o in_o the_o kind_n wherein_o god_n bestow_v it_o and_o in_o a_o word_n when_o we_o can_v comprehend_v it_o the_o lord_n comprehend_v us._n so_o that_o faith_n be_v cast_v of_o the_o soul_n upon_o the_o offer_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o father_n give_v he_o all_o at_o once_o in_o all_o his_o good_a thing_n which_o the_o spirit_n reveal_v and_o the_o more_o the_o better_o yet_o faith_n be_v not_o in_o this_o most_o to_o be_v admire_v for_o particular_a apply_v each_o benefit_n but_o for_o her_o accept_n of_o what_o the_o lord_n have_v couch_v in_o the_o offer_n that_o be_v whole_a christ_n second_o i_o say_v this_o answer_n be_v to_o be_v note_v against_o a_o schismatical_a opinion_n of_o some_o that_o hold_v the_o act_n of_o believe_v to_o be_v that_o which_o god_n accept_v to_o justification_n a_o dangerous_a conceit_n which_o make_v christ_n a_o mere_a servant_n to_o faith_n and_o under_o the_o colour_n of_o ascribe_v honour_n to_o faith_n take_v away_o all_o christ_n preeminence_n for_o although_o this_o opinion_n exclude_v not_o christ_n whole_o from_o the_o reckon_n yet_o in_o the_o act_n of_o justify_v it_o only_o give_v all_o to_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n and_o they_o say_v as_o the_o act_n of_o adam_n sin_n condemn_v he_o so_o the_o act_n of_o our_o faith_n justify_v us._n but_o the_o parallel_n be_v foolish_a and_o absurd_a adam_n sin_n may_v

apprehend_v and_o that_o by_o the_o act_n of_o god_n impute_v it_o to_o us._n q._n you_o seem_v to_o make_v imputation_n a_o act_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n but_o the_o word_n be_v use_v as_o a_o
