Thirdly, That hereby you perfectly renounce and destroy your Antinomian Fancy before-mentioned, That if Christ have fulfilled the Law, and purchased Heaven for men, nothing can remain but ⟨p. 268⟩to declare this to them, &c. for it seems by this, they must receive and apply Christ's Righteousness by Faith, or they cannot be justified (you say not declaratively in their own Consciences, but) before God.
