follow_v that_o as_o he_o who_o do_v righteousness_n be_v righteous_a as_o god_n be_v righteous_a so_o no_o far_o be_v he_o like_o god_n or_o justifiable_a for_o in_o whatsoever_o he_o derrogate_v from_o the_o work_n of_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v hold_v in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n he_o be_v no_o long_o righteous_a or_o justify_v but_o under_o condemnation_n as_o a_o transgressor_n or_o

impossible_a for_o god_n to_o justify_v that_o which_o be_v both_o opposite_a and_o destructive_a to_o the_o purity_n of_o his_o own_o nature_n as_o this_o doctrine_n necessary_o oblige_v he_o to_o do_v in_o accept_v the_o wicked_a as_o not_o such_o from_o the_o imputation_n of_o another_o righteousness_n 2._o since_o man_n be_v justify_v before_o god_n whilst_o in_o his_o native_a innocency_n and_o never_o condemn_v till_o he_o have_v err_v from_o that_o pure_a state_n he_o never_o can_v be_v justify_v whilst_o in_o the_o frequent_a commission_n of_o that_o for_o which_o the_o

for_o god_n do_v not_o condemn_v his_o creature_n for_o what_o he_o do_v not_o but_o what_o he_o do_v therefore_o must_v the_o righteousness_n be_v as_o personal_a for_o acceptance_n otherwise_o these_o two_o thing_n will_v necessary_o follow_v first_o that_o he_o may_v be_v actual_o a_o sinner_n and_o yet_o not_o under_o the_o curse_n second_o that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n to_o death_n be_v more_o prevalent_a than_o the_o power_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n unto_o life_n 4._o it_o be_v therefore_o contrary_a to_o sound_v reason_n that_o if_o actual_a sin_v bring_v death_n and_o condemnation_n any_o thing_n beside_o actual_a obedience_n unto_o righteousness_n shall_v bring_v life_n and_o justification_n for_o death_n and_o life_n condemnation_n and_o justification_n be_v vast_o opposite_a no_o man_n can_v be_v actual_o dead_a and_o imputative_o alive_a therefore_o this_o doctrine_n so_o much_o contend_v for_o carry_v this_o gross_a absurdity_n with_o it_o that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v actual_o sinful_a yet_o imputative_o righteous_a actual_o judge_v and_o condemn_v yet_o imputative_o justify_v and_o glorify_v in_o short_a he_o may_v be_v actual_o damn_v and_o yet_o imputative_o save_v otherwise_o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v that_o obedience_n to_o justification_n ought_v to_o be_v as_o personal_o extensive_a as_o be_v

slay_v thou_o not_o for_o i_o will_v not_o justify_v the_o wicked_a whereon_o i_o ground_n this_o argument_n that_o since_o god_n have_v prescribe_v a_o inoffensive_a life_n as_o that_o which_o only_o can_v give_v acceptance_n with_o he_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_n have_v determine_v never_o to_o justify_v the_o wicked_a then_o will_v it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o unless_o this_o so_o much_o

to_o seek_v for_o justification_n as_o before_o for_o whilst_o a_o person_n be_v real_o guilty_a of_o a_o false_a matter_n i_o positive_o assert_v from_o the_o authority_n and_o force_n of_o this_o scripture_n they_o can_v be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o justification_n and_o as_o god_n will_v not_o justify_v the_o wicked_a so_o by_o the_o acknowledge_a reason_n of_o contrary_n the_o just_a he_o will_v never_o condemn_v but_o they_o and_o they_o only_o be_v the_o justify_v of_o god_n 15._o 2._o he_o that_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o he_o that_o condemn_v the_o just_a even_o they_o both_o

just_a how_o much_o great_a will_v it_o be_v in_o god_n which_o this_o doctrine_n of_o imputative_a righteousness_n necessary_o do_v imply_v that_o so_o far_o disengage_v god_n from_o the_o person_n

doctrine_n who_o imagine_v the_o righteous_a and_o merciful_a god_n to_o condemn_v and_o punish_v his_o innocent_a son_n that_o he_o have_v satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n we_o may_v be_v justify_v whilst_o unsanctified_a by_o the_o imputation_n of_o his_o perfect_a righteousness_n o_o why_o shall_v this_o horrible_a thing_n be_v contend_v for_o by_o christian_n 3._o the_o son_n shall_v not_o

be_v not_o my_o way_n equal_a if_o this_o be_v once_o equal_a it_o be_v so_o still_o for_o god_n unchangeable_a and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v draw_v this_o argument_n that_o the_o condemnation_n or_o
