we_o must_v plead_v that_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v for_o sin_n and_o upon_o that_o consideration_n god_n have_v forgive_v we_o and_o therefore_o be_v forgive_v we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v punish_v to_o prove_v this_o we_o must_v show_v the_o pardon_n under_o god_n hand_n in_o the_o gospel_n but_o because_o this_o pardon_v don_v act_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v forgive_v none_o but_o those_o that_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o so_o return_v to_o god_n and_o to_o sincere_a obedience_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v therefore_o the_o next_o accusation_n will_v be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o
