The answer.

Whereby you may gather the impudencie of the papists, in applieng fathers to that they ment not. The whole scope and circumstances of the place are against inherent iustice, and for the righteousnes of Christ imputed to vs. But God endueth man, with righteousnes, when he doth iustifie him. It is true: But that righteousnes whereby he maketh men iust, is the righ∣teousnes of Christ. The other wherewith he indueth vs, which we call sanctification, being gods gift, is not sufficient to make vs iust before God, but to declare vs iust before men.
