to_o one_o man_n it_o will_v not_o do_v the_o least_o good_a to_o his_o justification_n or_o salvation_n if_o christ_n have_v not_o satisfy_v for_o he_o as_o be_v already_o prove_v 2._o nay_o indeed_o such_o a_o faith_n will_v be_v but_o a_o ungrounded_a fancy_n or_o presumption_n to_o expect_v pardon_n from_o a_o satisfaction_n that_o be_v never_o make_v for_o i_o be_v a_o vain_a expectation_n 4._o if_o christ_n death_n have_v no_o more_o conducibility_n or_o virtue_n for_o any_o man_n remission_n and_o salvation_n then_o if_o he_o have_v never_o die_v at_o all_o than_o it_o be_v not_o

and_o reformation_n of_o life_n in_o time_n to_o come_v for_o when_o we_o begin_v to_o think_v that_o christ_n crucify_a by_o suffer_v the_o first_o and_o second_o death_n have_v procure_v to_o we_o remission_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n past_a and_o free_v we_o from_o hell_n death_n and_o damnation_n then_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o spark_n of_o grace_n in_o we_o we_o begin_v to_o be_v of_o

christ_n crucify_a in_o who_o and_o by_o who_o we_o come_v to_o know_v five_o special_a thing_n of_o ourselves_o the_o first_o how_o grievous_a our_o sin_n be_v and_o therefore_o how_o miserable_a

that_o christ_n will_v suffer_v death_n without_o first_o consider_v somewhat_o else_o that_o require_v that_o suffering_n and_o something_o that_o put_v a_o value_n upon_o it_o 3._o so_o that_o the_o

the_o follow_a effect_n of_o christ_n death_n do_v all_o presuppose_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o justice_n and_o hence_o christ_n death_n become_v so_o please_v to_o god_n not_o as_o death_n but_o as_o

give_v out_o hereupon_o so_o that_o christ_n death_n be_v as_o to_o god_n first_o satisfactory_a and_o then_o meritorious_a of_o further_a benefit_n now_o faith_n very_o remote_o follow_v all_o this_o
