and_o the_o title_n to_o those_o right_n be_v no_o way_n by_o law_n not_o by_o birth_n not_o by_o purchase_n not_o by_o desert_n but_o by_o the_o mere_a favour_n kindness_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n sect_n vii_o reason_n 1_o because_o our_o justification_n be_v contrary_a to_o our_o condemnation_n our_o title_n to_o death_n whereby_o we_o be_v condemn_v be_v by_o work_n condemnation_n condemnation_n for_o it_o be_v by_o sin_n for_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o many_o be_v dead_a our_o title_n then_o to_o life_n whereto_o we_o be_v justify_v must_v needs_o be_v by_o grace_n and_o so_o life_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o gift_n for_o if_o death_n be_v a_o wage_n and_o a_o payment_n due_a for_o sin_n than_o life_n must_v needs_o be_v not_o a_o wage_n nor_o a_o payment_n but_o a_o mere_a gift_n and_o favour_n for_o if_o thing_n contrary_a have_v contrary_a form_n then_o contrary_a right_n must_v have_v contrary_a title_n if_o our_o right_n to_o die_v come_v by_o law_n our_o right_n to_o live_v must_v needs_o come_v by_o grace_n so_o st._n paul_n reason_n at_o large_a rom._n 5.15.16_o etc._n etc._n sect_n viii_o reason_n 2_o

together_o for_o four_o several_a time_n he_o term_v they_o gift_n now_o all_o gift_n be_v acquire_v by_o grace_n and_o the_o donatary_n have_v no_o other_o title_n than_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o the_o donor_n sect_n ix_o reason_n 3_o because_o the_o original_a right_n of_o justification_n be_v impunity_n or_o pardon_n for_o when_o god_n create_v these_o right_n unto_o we_o impunity_n impunity_n we_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o sin_n for_o in_o that_o state_n we_o be_v bear_v into_o the_o world_n and_o our_o first_o right_o be_v impunity_n or_o pardon_n i._n e._n to_o be_v account_v righteous_a hence_o our_o justification_n be_v so_o frequent_o term_v imputation_n of_o righteousness_n and_o absolution_n from_o sin_n which_o two_o attribute_n make_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n for_o they_o differ_v only_o in_o the_o term_n save_v that_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n be_v the_o better_a term_n because_o it_o be_v the_o term_n positive_a or_o term_v
