cum fides & opera in re justificationis extreme adversantur ⟨p. 101⟩ita a fit ut doctrina operum necessario sit doctrina daemoniorum et discessio a fide.1 Luther speaketh so of Good works, only in the matter of justification, But our Antinomians speak so of the whole course of sanctification in order to heaven, and as they are the way to the Kingdom, not the cause of the crown. as both they follow the person already justified and as they go before him who is yet to be justified: for Crispe saith vol 1. ser. 4, pag. 89. But withal I must tell you, that all this sanctification of life is not a jot the way of that justified person to heaven.

I persuade my self Luther had an eye to Antinomians, when he said, […] feared after his death that the doctrine of the true office of the law should be obscured, Luther to 3. fol. 102, admoneo pietati amatores, praecipue qui aliquando sunt futuri doctores ut diligentèr ex Paulo dist intelligere verum et proprium usum legis qui (ut timeo) post tmpora nostra interim obscurabitur, et prorsus obruetu. to 4.106 timeo quod ista doctrina (de vero legis usu) nobis extincti bscurabitur.
