Abraham through works Genesis. 1xxij. was sure of his faith to be right, and that the true fear of God was in him, when he had offered his son (as the Scripture saith.) Now know I that thou fearest God, that is to say. Now is it open, and manifest that thou fearest God, in as much as thou hast not spared thy only son for my sake.

SO now by this abide sure and fast, that a man inwardly in the hart and before God is righteous, & good thorough faith only before all works. Notwithstanding yet outwardly and openly before the people, yea and before himself, is he righteous through the work, that is, he knoweth and is sure through the outward work that he is a true believer, and in the favour of GOD, and righteous, and good thorough the mercy of GOD: that thou mayst call the one an open, and an outward 1righteousness, & the other an inward righteousness of the hart (so yet) that thou understand by the outward righteousness, no other thing save the fruit that followeth, and a declaring of the inward justifying and righteousness of the hart, and not that it maketh a man righteous before God, but that he must be first righteous before him in the hart. Even as thou mayst call the fruit of the tree, the outward goodness of the tree, which followeth and uttereth the inward natural goodness of the tree.
