he_o or_o how_o can_v he_o not_o do_v this_o which_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n in_o a_o word_n if_o i_o can_v pardon_v that_o which_o be_v commit_v against_o i_o if_o i_o will_v shall_v not_o god_n our_o christ_n be_v able_a to_o forgive_v that_o which_o be_v commit_v against_o he_o if_o he_o will_v if_o therefore_o he_o can_v forgive_v and_o pardon_v our_o sin_n both_o because_o he_o be_v omnipotent_a and_o only_o can_v because_o they_o be_v only_o do_v against_o he_o sure_o bless_v be_v the_o man_n to_o who_o this_o lord_n christ_n will_v not_o impute_v sin_n therefore_o we_o know_v that_o christ_n by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o divinity_n be_v able_a to_o forgive_v sin_n now_o of_o his_o will_n who_o need_n to_o doubt_v for_o he_o that_o debase_v himself_o so_o much_o as_o to_o take_v our_o flesh_n upon_o he_o and_o to_o suffer_v death_n for_o we_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v not_o impart_v unto_o we_o his_o righteousness_n sure_o yes_o so_o that_o as_o it_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o deity_n that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o forgive_v our_o sin_n so_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o humanity_n that_o he_o be_v willing_a so_o to_o do_v but_o what_o other_o argument_n have_v we_o that_o he_o have_v vanquish_v death_n marry_o this_o because_o he_o suffer_v it_o which_o do_v not_o deserve_v it_o and_o therefore_o with_o what_o reason_n can_v that_o be_v require_v of_o we_o which_o a_o other_o have_v already_o pay_v for_o we_o he_o that_o take_v away_o the_o merit_n of_o sin_n by_o give_v his_o righteousness_n unto_o we_o he_o have_v pay_v the_o debt_n of_o death_n and_o restore_v life_n unto_o we_o for_o so_o death_n be_v vanquish_v life_n be_v restore_v as_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o righteousness_n be_v return_v but_o how_o can_v he_o die_v which_o be_v god_n even_o in_o this_o respect_n that_o he_o be_v man_n but_o how_o can_v the_o death_n of_o one_o man_n satisfy_v for_o a_o other_o because_o he_o be_v just_a and_o innocent_a that_o die_v as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o may_v die_v but_o be_v guiltless_a it_o be_v not_o necessary_a indeed_o a_o sinner_n be_v not_o able_a to_o satisfy_v the_o debt_n of_o death_n for_o a_o other_o sinner_n for_o every_o one_o die_v for_o his_o own_o sin_n but_o he_o that_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o die_v for_o his_o own_o shall_v we_o not_o think_v his_o death_n may_v be_v a_o ransom_n for_o a_o other_o sure_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o unjust_o he_o die_v which_o have_v not_o deserve_v death_n by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o just_o he_o live_v for_o who_o he_o so_o die_v but_o what_o equity_n be_v it_o say_v thou_o that_o a_o innocent_a person_n shall_v die_v for_o the_o guilty_a i_o tell_v thou_o it_o be_v not_o justice_n but_o mercy_n if_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v justice_n than_o he_o have_v not_o die_v voluntary_o but_o of_o duty_n if_o of_o duty_n than_o he_o himself_o shall_v die_v indeed_o yet_o he_o for_o who_o he_o so_o die_v shall_v not_o live_v but_o nevertheless_o if_o it_o be_v not_o justice_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o against_o justice_n otherwise_o god_n can_v not_o have_v be_v just_a and_o merciful_a at_o once_o but_o although_o one_o just_a man_n may_v satisfy_v for_o one_o sinner_n yet_o how_o be_v it_o that_o one_o may_v satisfy_v for_o many_o for_o it_o may_v seem_v enough_o if_o one_o die_v for_o one_o do_v restore_v life_n unto_o one_o to_o this_o the_o apostle_n shall_v answer_v as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o the_o fault_n come_v on_o all_o man_n to_o the_o condemnation_n of_o death_n so_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o the_o benefit_n abound_v towards_o all_o man_n to_o the_o justification_n of_o life_n for_o as_o by_o one_o man_n disobedience_n many_o be_v make_v sinner_n so_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o many_o be_v become_v righteous_a but_o perhaps_o one_o man_n may_v restore_v righteousness_n unto_o many_o but_o life_n not_o so_o by_o one_o man_n say_v he_o death_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o so_o by_o one_o be_v life_n regayn_v for_o as_o by_o adam_n all_o die_n so_o by_o christ_n shall_v all_o be_v make_v alive_a for_o what_o shall_v one_o man_n sin_n and_o all_o become_v guilty_a and_o shall_v the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o redound_v but_o to_o one_o only_o be_v god_n justice_n such_o as_o to_o condemn_v all_o for_o one_o and_o can_v his_o mercy_n be_v as_o great_a as_o to_o save_v all_o by_o one_o or_o can_v adam_n do_v more_o in_o evil_n than_o christ_n in_o good_a shall_v adam_n sin_n be_v impute_v unto_o i_o and_o shall_v not_o christ_n righteousness_n belong_v unto_o i_o shall_v his_o disobedience_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o my_o death_n and_o shall_v not_o christ_n obedience_n restore_v i_o to_o life_n but_o thou_o will_v say_v we_o be_v worthy_o guilty_a of_o adam_n sin_n because_o we_o be_v contain_v in_o he_o when_o he_o sin_v and_o be_v beget_v of_o his_o flesh_n in_o the_o sinful_a

the_o number_n of_o those_o who_o god_n have_v predestinate_v before_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n unto_o life_n and_o that_o we_o be_v beget_v of_o god_n s._n john_n witness_v where_o he_o

of_o those_o only_a that_o can_v say_v with_o the_o apostle_n we_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o who_o have_v the_o spirit_n bear_v witness_n to_o their_o spirit_n that_o they_o be_v

help_v we_o can_v our_o carnal_a succession_n hinder_v the_o election_n of_o god_n and_o a_o momentary_a sin_n be_v a_o let_v unto_o his_o eternal_a and_o everlasting_a purpose_n nay_o if_o by_o one_o man_n death_n enter_v upon_o all_o shall_v not_o life_n by_o one_o man_n especial_o such_o a_o man_n as_o christ_n be_v give_v unto_o all_o and_o if_o in_o adam_n we_o all_o die_v shall_v we_o not_o much_o more_o in_o christ_n be_v make_v alive_a for_o the_o fault_n be_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o the_o gift_n for_o judgement_n come_v for_o one_o sin_n unto_o condemnation_n but_o grace_n be_v of_o many_o sin_n unto_o justification_n christ_n therefore_o both_o can_v remit_v our_o sin_n in_o that_o he_o be_v god_n &_o die_v in_o that_o he_o be_v man_n and_o by_o die_v deliver_v we_o from_o death_n in_o that_o he_o be_v just_a and_o though_o but_o one_o yet_o be_v sufficient_a unto_o justification_n and_o life_n for_o all_o because_o both_o sin_n and_o also_o death_n do_v enter_v into_o we_o all_o by_o one_o thus_o all_o of_o christ_n be_v powerful_a to_o help_v we_o in_o every_o thing_n he_o be_v profitable_a for_o we_o neither_o be_v his_o infirmity_n less_o available_a than_o his_o majesty_n for_o although_o by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o deity_n he_o remove_v the_o yoke_n of_o sin_n from_o our_o neck_n yet_o in_o the_o infirmity_n of_o his_o flesh_n he_o destroy_v the_o power_n of_o death_n by_o his_o death_n and_o therefore_o true_a be_v that_o of_o the_o apostle_n the_o weakness_n of_o god_n be_v strong_a unto_o man_n for_o his_o death_n have_v free_v we_o from_o death_n as_o his_o life_n do_v from_o error_n and_o his_o grace_n from_o sin_n

servant_n of_o god_n a_o servile_a fear_n may_v be_v see_v in_o pharaoh_n who_o fear_v the_o lord_n when_o he_o let_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n depart_v but_o it_o be_v only_o for_o fear_n lest_o

he_o have_v slay_v his_o brother_n so_o judas_n fear_v when_o he_o have_v betray_v his_o master_n thus_o the_o gentile_n fear_v their_o idol_n for_o it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o love_n that_o they_o can_v bear_v they_o be_v so_o wicked_a &_o ungodly_a as_o they_o be_v but_o only_o lest_o they_o shall_v be_v hurt_v by_o they_o if_o they_o do_v not_o serve_v they_o of_o this_o fear_n saint_n

for_o displease_v they_o or_o provoke_v their_o anger_n then_o for_o the_o punishment_n which_o by_o the_o offence_n may_v redound_v unto_o themselves_o this_o fear_n be_v neither_o forbid_v the_o

they_o that_o do_v not_o whatsoever_o by_o the_o law_n be_v command_v unto_o they_o therefore_o many_o of_o the_o jew_n do_v servile_o fear_n god_n but_o they_o love_v he_o not_o as_o may_v appear_v in_o that_o they_o have_v rather_o have_v worship_v any_o stock_n or_o stone_n if_o they_o may_v have_v have_v their_o choice_n without_o fear_n of_o punishment_n but_o now_o see_v christ_n be_v
