so_o it_o agree_v with_o that_o in_o rom_n 4.5_o he_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a there_o meaning_n be_v when_o we_o be_v without_o strength_n and_o altogether_o ungodly_a one_o chtist_n die_v for_o

first_o adam_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o for_o say_v he_o as_o by_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o one_o man_n judgement_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o condemnation_n that_o be_v

it_o come_v glorious_o and_o powerful_o upon_o they_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v how_o weak_o and_o unwarrantable_o he_o allege_v this_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o say_v for_o all_o person_n when_o as_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n speak_v of_o those_o only_a who_o be_v in_o themselves_o before_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n actual_a partaker_n of_o justification_n of_o life_n by_o he_o and_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n here_o mention_v it_o be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n stand_v in_o

life_n it_o be_v the_o same_o justification_n mention_v in_o chapt._n 3.24.26_o chapt._n 4.5_o and_o in_o the_o 4._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n also_o second_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o application_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n unto_o the_o person_n here_o mention_v in_o verse_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o exceed_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o in_o verse_n 16_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unto_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o this_o 18._o ver_fw-la it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o in_o verse_n seventeen_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o justification_n and_o salvation_n here_o mention_v be_v speak_v of_o those_o only_o who_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n those_o who_o receive_v it_o that_o be_v those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v ●_o time_n call_v ●_o gift_n which_o to_o whosoever_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o all_o man_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n we_o can_v neither_o understand_v all_o person_n from_o first_o to_o last_o neither_o can_v his_o distinction_n be_v justify_v from_o hence_o for_o he_o here_o speak_v or_o such_o a_o justification_n of_o life_n as_o come_n upon_o man_n or_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v that_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o to_o justify_v his_o distinction_n i_o shall_v clear_v that_o in_o its_o due_a place_n from_o such_o a_o sense_n and_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n to_o what_o i_o shall_v there_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v the_o first_o of_o john_n 5.10.11.12_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o scripture_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o witness_n in_o himself_o and_o bear_v record_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v his_o gift_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o this_o life_n be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v but_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o therefore_o whosoever_o seek_v for_o life_n and_o salvation_n by_o his_o own_o work_n or_o righteousness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o jesus_n christ_n crucify_v and_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o receive_v or_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n which_o god_n give_v of_o his_o son_n and_o whereas_o he_o think_v to_o strengthen_v his_o distinction_n by_o say_v there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o consider_v that_o these_o word_n in_o christ_n when_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o or_o apply_v unto_o redemption_n justification_n

to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o reason_n the_o clear_n of_o the_o word_n by_o some_o reason_n i_o will_v propound_v some_o reason_n show_v why_o we_o can_v understand_v they_o according_a to_o their_o sense_n first_o i_o do_v not_o read_v any_o where_o in_o scripture_n that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o taste_n of_o death_n but_o suffering_n bruising_n wound_n oppressing_n travelling_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o the_o like_a second_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v then_o as_o i_o conceive_v there_o will_v be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n in_o the_o word_n for_o than_o they_o will_v run_v thus_o to_o wit_n we_o see_v jesus_n through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v suffer_v death_n mind_n now_o he_o suffer_v death_n that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v death_n will_v not_o here_o be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n three_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v of_o death_n then_o as_o i_o conceive_v it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n undergo_v a_o second_o suffer_v of_o death_n to_o wit_n a_o suffering_n of_o death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n through_o that_o one_o and_o bitter_a suffering_n of_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o word_n run_v thus_o we_o see_v he_o through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o shall_v taste_v death_n if_o therefore_o by_o the_o taste_n of_o death_n in_o this_o place_n we_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o suffer_v death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n and_o this_o be_v so_o assure_v and_o false_a that_o every_o one_o will_v reject_v it_o four_o to_o come_v now_o to_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a meaning_n of_o these_o word_n i_o conceive_v by_o his_o taste_a death_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n but_o a_o effect_n or_o fruit_n of_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n and_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o

taste_v death_n that_o be_v he_o make_v it_o tasteful_a sweet_a and_o savoury_a and_o so_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o effect_n of_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n and_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n that_o be_v he_o through_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n be_v crown_v with_o glory_n have_v according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n make_v death_n tasteful_a reader_n although_o the_o word_n all_o in_o

every_o of_o these_o he_o by_o his_o suffering_n &_o glory_n have_v make_v death_n tasteful_a &_o savoury_a he_o have_v sweeten_v death_n and_o make_v it_o a_o entrance_n or_o passage_n unto_o glory_n

both_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o measure_n and_o time_n of_o it_o that_o which_o be_v infinite_a be_v without_o end_n therefore_o whatsoever_o their_o opinion_n of_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o
