5. They are a condition, without which a man cannot be saved. So that although a man cannot by the presence of them gather a 1cause of his salvation; yet by the absence of them he may conclude his damnation: so that it is an inexcusable speech of the ⟨p. 43⟩Antinomian, Good works do not profit us, nor bad hinder us; thus Islebius. Now the Scripture, how full is it to the contrary? Rom. 8. 13. If ye live after the flesh, ye shall dye. So, Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Such places are so frequent, that it's a wonder an Antinomian can pass them all over, and always speak of those places which declare Gods grace to us, but not our duty to him. Without holiness no man can see God: now, by the Antinomians argument, as a man may be justified while he is wicked, and doth abide so; so also he may be glorified and saved: for this is their principle, that, Christ hath purchased justification, glory, and salvation for us, even though sinners and enemies.
