call_v the_o father_n of_o all_o mercy_n 1_o cor._n 1.3_o because_o he_o be_v the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o all_o thing_n be_v say_v to_o be_v of_o he_o and_o from_o he_o

he_o must_v find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o preserve_v the_o sanction_n of_o the_o law_n 3._o because_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n may_v not_o be_v eclipse_v for_o we_o must_v not_o render_v the_o son_n more_o kind_a to_o his_o people_n than_o the_o father_n 4._o because_o the_o father_n be_v say_v to_o be_v our_o justifier_n rom._n 3.26_o he_o declare_v we_o

that_o you_o say_v be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v it_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v god_n ans_fw-fr to_o which_o i_o answer_v no_o it_o be_v not_o the_o

because_o it_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o he_o that_o be_v true_o god_n so_o well_o as_o man_n he_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n

that_o that_o be_v fulfil_v by_o christ_n while_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n how_o so_o why_o because_o christ_n do_v perfect_o and_o complete_o keep_v the_o law_n maintain_v its_o sanction_n
