apostle_n who_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n live_v any_o long_a therein_o rom._n 6._o 4._o know_v you_o not_o that_o so_o many_o of_o we_o as_o be_v baptize_v into_o jesus_n christ_n be_v baptize_v into_o

so_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n these_o person_n who_o be_v baptize_v be_v true_a believer_n be_v in_o a_o justify_v state_n and_o though_o it_o be_v true_a they_o by_o their_o

righteousness_n they_o desire_v to_o be_v find_v in_o to_o justification_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a these_o man_n place_n obedience_n and_o personal_n holiness_n in_o the_o place_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o non-performance_n of_o that_o inherent_a holiness_n and_o obedience_n in_o the_o room_n of_o unbelief_n though_o we_o grant_v without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v ever_o see_v the_o lord_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o or_o thereby_o we_o be_v justify_v and_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o by_o the_o personal_a righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o to_o proceed_v as_o a_o

instead_o of_o make_v it_o honourable_a by_o christ_n perfect_a conformity_n to_o it_o in_o our_o nature_n and_o stead_n nor_o can_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v say_v to_o be_v

of_o jesus_n christ_n impute_v to_o he_o not_o that_o justification_n be_v nothing_o more_o but_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n or_o the_o not_o or_o non-exacting_a the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n due_a for_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n of_o work_n and_o the_o
