This little treatise of M. Patricks places,1 albeit in quantity it be but short, yet in effect it comprehendeth matter able to fill large volumes, declaring to us the true doctrine of the law, of the Gospel, of faith, and of works, with the nature and properties, & also the difference of the same.2 Which difference is thus to be understanded, that in the cause of salvation, and in the office of justifying, these are to be removed and separated a sunder, the law from the Gospel, and faith from works: Otherwise in the person that is justified, and also in order of doctrine, they ought commonly to go necessarily together.
