already_o there_o seem_v no_o reason_n it_o shall_v stand_v in_o force_n to_o require_v of_o the_o condemn_v that_o perfection_n of_o righteousness_n it_o at_o first_o require_v of_o they_o whilst_o

threaten_v if_o it_o add_v to_o the_o aggravation_n why_o not_o also_o to_o that_o of_o the_o damn_a §_o 25._o if_o it_o here_o shall_v be_v reply_v these_o be_v yet_o but_o in_o viâ_fw-la and_o a_o

§_o 26._o i_o shall_v answer_v this_o be_v true_a but_o then_o i_o must_v cry_v out_o with_o our_o apostle_n thanks_o be_v to_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n 25._o rom._n 7._o 25._o our_o lord_n

to_o this_o i_o have_v nothing_o else_o at_o present_a to_o reply_v but_o that_o since_o our_o saviour_n assure_v i_o that_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o and_o therefore_o since_o all_o not_o infant_n except_v be_v dead_a in_o adam_n because_o they_o sin_v in_o he_o i_o must_v conclude_v with_o s._n austin_n that_o the_o infidel_n by_o the_o tenor_n of_o the_o first_o

shall_v be_v the_o light_a yet_o i_o know_v no_o reason_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n that_o as_o he_o live_v long_o his_o hell_n shall_v be_v the_o hot_a nor_o can_v i_o for_o the_o present_n apprehend_v how_o this_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v but_o only_o upon_o the_o promise_n and_o promulgation_n of_o the_o second_o covenant_n not_o that_o god_n send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o condemn_v 20._o joh._n 3._o 17_o 18_o 19_o 20._o the_o world_n but_o that_o the_o world_n through_o he_o may_v be_v save_v for_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o he_o be_v not_o condemn_v but_o
