have_v its_o foundation_n in_o the_o gracious_a ordination_n and_o appointment_n of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v sufficient_o evident_a to_o any_o one_o that_o do_v attentive_o and_o serious_o consider_v

so_o it_o be_v no_o less_o obvious_a for_o we_o to_o conceive_v that_o the_o connection_n that_o be_v between_o they_o be_v not_o found_v in_o merit_n but_o in_o free_a grace_n for_o when_o we_o

for_o any_o one_o to_o think_v to_o merit_v any_o thing_n by_o the_o payment_n of_o a_o just_a debt_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o eternal_a life_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o

eternal_a death_n which_o be_v the_o just_a punishment_n of_o sin_n be_v call_v wage_n as_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o it_o do_v most_o just_o deserve_v rom._n 6._o 23._o for_o the_o wage_n of_o

in_o merit_n but_o in_o the_o free_a grace_n and_o undeserved_a love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n to_o which_o alone_o that_o gracious_a promise_n or_o covenant_n be_v entire_o owe_v whereby_o he_o
