notwithstanding_o the_o flesh_n as_o it_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o concupiscence_n can_v have_v any_o reasonable_a understanding_n but_o of_o the_o soul_n but_o now_o the_o three_o circumstance_n i_o trow_v will_v do_v the_o deed_n that_o he_o take_v out_o of_o the_o first_o verse_n of_o the_o eight_o chapter_n now_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n that_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n whence_o say_v he_o i_o argue_v thus_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o have_v sin_n dwell_v in_o they_o if_o they_o walk_v not_o according_a to_o the_o fleshly_a desire_n of_o it_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n proper_o for_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n that_o be_v eternal_a damnation_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v god_n for_o christ_n sake_n do_v not_o impute_v this_o sin_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n god_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n do_v pardon_v this_o sin_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v not_o proper_o sin_n and_o so_o he_o may_v likewise_o argue_v of_o david_n adultery_n peter_n deny_v &_o abiur_v of_o his_o master_n paul_n persecute_v of_o the_o church_n that_o none_o of_o these_o be_v proper_o sin_n because_o to_o they_o be_v in_o christ_n there_o be_v no_o condemation_n for_o any_o of_o these_o thing_n such_o drunken_a sophistry_n be_v we_o trouble_v with_o and_o draw_v by_o the_o

a_o answer_n the_o matter_n be_v plain_a to_o they_o that_o be_v willing_a to_o understand_v there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n it_o be_v true_a and_o yet_o

be_v in_o christ_n for_o christ_n sake_n it_o be_v forgive_v and_o pardon_v it_o be_v not_o impute_v unto_o they_o but_o it_o be_v still_o such_o as_o if_o it_o be_v impute_v it_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o condemn_v they_o to_o everlasting_a death_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v of_o concupiscence_n not_o for_o his_o consent_n to_o it_o which_o he_o disclaim_v but_o for_o the_o have_v of_o it_o dwell_v in_o he_o that_o 7.11_o that_o rom_n 7.11_o it_o slay_v he_o that_o 13._o that_o verse_n 13._o by_o the_o commandment_n it_o wrought_v death_n in_o he_o that_o by_o it_o he_o
