the_o word_n chastisement_n have_v not_o be_v fit_a to_o express_v it_o for_o we_o can_v find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n where_o the_o vindicative_a wrath_n of_o god_n and_o

to_o such_o as_o do_v true_o confess_v they_o because_o the_o text_n in_o terminis_fw-la do_v affirm_v it_o but_o the_o great_a matter_n of_o the_o dispute_n be_v in_o what_o sense_n be_v god_n say_v

to_o each_o other_o but_o because_o the_o bless_a trinity_n in_o their_o voluntary_a covenant_n do_v agree_v that_o such_o a_o performance_n by_o christ_n shall_v be_v accept_v of_o god_n for_o the_o

the_o conditional_a promise_n in_o the_o new_a covenant_n do_v testify_v therefore_o god_n can_v but_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v just_a according_a to_o his_o say_a covenant_n with_o christ_n by_o forgive_a the_o sin_n of_o such_o sinner_n and_o so_o cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n and_o thus_o god_n be_v just_a both_o according_a to_o his_o covenant_n with_o christ_n and_o also_o according_a to_o his_o new_a covenant_n to_o believe_a sinner_n reveal_v to_o they_o from_o his_o covenant_n with_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v clear_o typify_v in_o the_o law_n by_o the_o practice_n of_o confession_n of_o sin_n and_o by_o lay_v their_o hand_n on_o the_o head_n of_o the_o sin-offering_n for_o the_o procure_n of_o their_o atonement_n in_o leu._n 1._o 4._o and_o 4._o
