Item Gala. ij. where he resisted peter in the face he saith. We which are Jews by nation and not sinners of the gentiles / know that a man is not justified by the deeds of the law / but by the faith of Jesus Christ and have therefore believed on Jesus Christ / that we might be Justified by the faith of Christ / and not by the deeds of the law: for by the deeds of the law: shall no flesh be justified. Item in the same place he saith / touching that I now live I live in the faith of the Son of God / which loved me and gave him self for me I despise not the grace of God. For if righteousness come by the law / then is Christ dead in vain. And of such like ensamples are all the epistles of Paul full. Mark how Paul laboureth with himself to express the exceeding mysteries of faith in the epistle to the ephesians / and in the epistle to the Colossians. Off thes and many such like texts are we sure that the forgiveness of since and justifying is appropriate unto faith only without the adding to of works.
