it_o come_v to_o his_o remembrance_n how_o in_o the_o psal._n 31._o that_o man_n be_v call_v bless_a holy_a and_o righteous_a to_o who_o the_o lord_n impu_v not_o sin_n wherefore_o he_o determine_v that_o to_o impute_v unto_o righteousness_n be_v even_o all_o one_o with_o not_o to_o impute_v sin_n for_o to_o remit_v or_o not_o to_o impute_v sin_n be_v as_o much_o as_o free_o to_o pardon_v they_o

that_o god_n impute_v unto_o man_n righteousness_n without_o work_n wherefore_o out_o of_o every_o word_n we_o see_v notable_a reason_n to_o be_v draw_v howbeit_o the_o apostle_n proceed_v yet_o further_o and_o as_o we_o admonish_v in_o the_o 2._o observation_n he_o diligent_o enquire_v what_o time_n faith_n be_v impute_v unto_o abraham_n for_o righteousness_n now_o he_o find_v that_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v about_o fourteen_o year_n before_o circumcision_n four_o of_o this_o circumstance_n therefore_o of_o time_n he_o gather_v in_o the_o four_o place_n well_o near_o after_o this_o manner_n if_o abraham_n have_v be_v justify_v by_o work_n then_o chief_o by_o circumcision_n but_o by_o this_o he_o be_v not_o justify_v forasmuch_o as_o righteousness_n be_v impute_v unto_o he_o long_o time_n before_o he_o be_v circumcise_v therefore_o in_o no_o wise_a come_v righteousness_n by_o work_n the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o they_o stand_v in_o the_o text_n be_v plain_a furthermore_o apostle_n interlace_v forth_o with_o the_o five_o argument_n v._o take_v of_o the_o use_n and_o signification_n of_o circumcision_n abraham_n receive_v the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n as_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o say_v which_o he_o have_v when_o he_o be_v unsircumcise_v which_o we_o may_v take_v even_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v circumcision_n be_v not_o therefore_o receive_v to_o the_o intent_n any_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v thereby_o but_o that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o assurance_n of_o righteousness_n now_o before_o receive_v by_o faith_n for_o a_o man_n must_v always_o first_o believe_v and_o confess_v his_o faith_n or_o ever_o he_o can_v right_o use_v any_o sacrament_n institute_v of_o god_n and_o unless_o a_o man_n already_o endue_v with_o faith_n do_v receive_v the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o he_o shall_v hope_v that_o they_o will_v become_v wholesome_a unto_o he_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o know_v not_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v sign_n of_o the_o covenant_n make_v before_o with_o god_n and_o that_o they_o be_v add_v as_o seal_n of_o our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n like_v as_o after_o the_o

place_n vi_o see_v now_o it_o appear_v that_o faith_n be_v impute_v unto_o abraham_n for_o righteousness_n before_o he_o be_v circumcise_v &_o while_o he_o be_v yet_o uncircumcised_a it_o be_v a_o
