sinne thorow him. And that Iames speaketh of a nother fayth
then at the begynnynge appereth by his ensample. The
deuelles haue fayth saith he: ye but the deuels haue no
fayth that can repent of euell or to beleue in Christ / to be saued thorow him / or that can loue god and worke his will of
loue. Now Paul speaketh of a faith that is in Christes
bloude to be saued therby / which worketh immediatly thorow
loue of the benefite receaued.

And Iames at the beginninge speaketh of a faith that bydeth
trienge sayenge / the trienge of youre fayth worketh or
causeth paciens. But the faith of the deuels wyll byde no
trienge / for they wyll not worke gods wyll because they
loue him not. And in like maner is it of the fayth of them
that repent not or that thynke them selues with out synne.
For except a man fele out of what daunger Christ hath delyuered him / he can not loue the worke. And therfore Iames saith
right / that no soch faith that wyll not worke can
iustifie a man.

And when Paul saith faith only iustifieth: and Iames / that
a man is iustified by werkes and not by fayth only / there
is greate difference
betwene Pauls only and Iameses only. For Paules
only is to be vnderstonde / that fayth iustifieth in the
hert and before god / wyth out helpe of werkes / ye and yer
I can worke. For I must receaue life thorow fayth to worke
wyth / yer I can worke. But Iames only is
this wise to be vnderstonde / that faith doeth
not so iustifie / that no thynge iustifieth saue fayth /
For dedes doo iustifie also. But fayth iustifieth in the
herte and before god / and the dedes before the world only
and maketh the other sene as ye maye se by the scripture.
