The Whole Treatise of the Cases of Conscience
The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three books: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundry places, and the other two annexed. Taught and delivered by M. W. Perkins in his holy-day lectures, carefully examined by his own briefs, and now published together for the common good, by T. Pickering Bachelor of Divinity. Whereunto is adjoined a twofold table: one of the heads and number of the questions propounded and resolved; another of the principal texts of Scripture which are either explained, or vindicated from corrupt interpretation.The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three bookes: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundrie places, and the other two annexed.

Now Righteousness, or Justice, is twofold: the Justice of the Gospel, and the Justice of the Law.
Now Righteousnes, or Iustice, is twofold: the Iustice of the Gospel, and the Iustice of the Law.
Evangelical justice is that, which the gospel reveals, and not the Law; to wit, the obedience of Christ in his sufferings, and fulfilling of the law, imputed to them that believe for their justification; and this is not here meant.
Evangelicall iustice is that, which the gospell reveales, and not the Law; to witte, the obedience of Christ in his sufferings, and fulfilling of the law, imputed to them that beleeue for their iustification; and this is not here meant.
Legal justice is that, which the law revealeth, and withal requireth. And it is either universal, or particular.
Legall iustice is that, which the law revealeth, and withall requireth. And it is either vniuersall, or particular.
