sense_n and_o that_o be_v to_o signify_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v commit_v before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n show_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o defer_v the_o the_o revelation_n of_o christ_n until_o his_o incarnation_n but_o do_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n propose_v and_o set_v forth_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o

also_o such_o as_o be_v commit_v before_o and_o i_o incline_v the_o rather_o to_o this_o exposition_n first_o because_o he_o speak_v of_o propose_v of_o christ_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n as_o a_o

will_v not_o have_v forgive_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n commit_v long_o before_o unless_o that_o in_o his_o great_a patience_n he_o have_v respect_v the_o future_a propitiation_n of_o his_o dear_a son_n four_o because_o he_o also_o add_v vers_fw-la 26._o to_o declare_v at_o this_o time_n his_o rightoousness_n i.e._n at_o this_o time_n since_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n he_o do_v declare_v and_o show_v forth_o his_o righteousness_n which_o he_o do_v not_o clear_o demonstrate_v before_o his_o son_n incarnation_n but_o now_o he_o make_v all_o the_o world_n to_o see_v how_o just_a he_o be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o forgive_v any_o sin_n no_o not_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o father_n without_o full_a satisfaction_n by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o only_o beget_v son_n doctr._n sin_n the_o full_a remission_n of_o sin_n that_o such_o be_v the_o efficacy_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o it_o be_v available_a to_o the_o full_a remission_n of_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n to_o the_o end_n thereof_o this_o appear_v to_o be_v plain_a and_o the_o full_a meaning_n of_o this_o place_n in_o that_o the_o apostle_n insist_o upon_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n past_a how_o long_o soever_o before_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o before_o his_o death_n which_o may_v seem_v all_o this_o while_n either_o not_o to_o be_v forgive_v or_o if_o forgive_v yet_o that_o it_o be_v upon_o some_o other_o account_n than_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n but_o now_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n be_v remit_v only_o upon_o this_o ground_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n promise_v and_o to_o come_v and_o therefore_o much_o more_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n death_n all_o the_o sin_n of_o believer_n since_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n be_v pardon_v and_o forgive_v let_v i_o clear_v up_o these_o thing_n to_o you_o and_o show_v 1_o that_o this_o remission_n be_v full_a 2_o that_o it_o flow_v from_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n 3_o that_o it_o be_v available_a for_o the_o remission_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n 1_o that_o this_o remission_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o believer_n be_v full_a and_o complete_a of_o all_o their_o sin_n past_a present_a
