have_v justify_v we_o but_o we_o believe_v in_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v justify_v 4._o a_o four_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o perpetual_a opposition_n between_o faith_n and_o work_n from_o whence_o the_o argument_n be_v this_o what_o place_n and_o order_n work_v have_v to_o justification_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n the_o same_o place_n and_o order_n faith_n have_v to_o our_o justification_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o work_n be_v to_o go_v before_o our_o justification_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n ergo_fw-la faith_n be_v to_o go_v before_o our_o justification_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n to_o the_o minor_a i_o say_v nothing_o because_o there_o be_v not_o a_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o do_v deny_v it_o as_o i_o know_v of_o and_o that_o be_v grant_v the_o major_a also_o must_v be_v out_o of_o question_n if_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n do_v this_o and_o live_v by_o the_o consent_n of_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n jew_n and_o gentile_n will_v undeniable_o evince_v that_o work_n be_v necessary_a antecedent_n of_o justification_n in_o that_o covenant_n why_o then_o shall_v not_o believe_v in_o the_o

justification_n by_o faith_n and_o justification_n by_o work_n be_v not_o oppose_v for_o opposita_fw-la sunt_fw-la circa_fw-la idem_fw-la the_o jew_n look_v after_o righteousness_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o they_o must_v seek_v it_o by_o faith_n now_o if_o they_o say_v we_o must_v be_v justify_v by_o work_n to_o wit_n formal_o and_o before_o god_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v nay_o but_o we_o must_v be_v justify_v by_o faith_n to_o wit_n declarative_o and_o before_o conscience_n then_o the_o establish_n of_o justification_n by_o faith_n will_v not_o

and_o how_o easy_o may_v the_o jew_n and_o the_o apostle_n have_v be_v reconcile_v they_o say_v we_o must_v be_v justify_v by_o work_n and_o he_o say_v we_o must_v be_v justify_v by_o faith_n it_o
