Moreover Christ and his Apostles do frequently promise Remission and salvation to all that truly Repent, that love God in Christ, that mortify the flesh, &c. but all this do the Protestants, and their Religion teacheth them to do it. Paul concludeth that, There is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, that walk not after the flesh but after the spirit, Rom. 8.11. But the Protestants are in Christ Jesus, and their Religion teacheth and engageth them so to walk: therefore there is no condemnation to them (that do so) and they may with ⟨p. 26⟩the same Apostle, Rom. 8.33, 34. Challenge all the Papists in the world. It is God that justifieth, who shall condemn us?
