now_o hear_v of_o his_o performance_n of_o it_o evan._n touch_v this_o point_n the_o scripture_n testify_v that_o god_n according_a to_o his_o purpose_n before_o time_n and_o his_o promise_n in_o

his_o wrath_n appease_v and_o all_o true_a believer_n acquit_v from_o all_o their_o sin_n both_o past_a present_a and_o to_o come_v so_o that_o the_o law_n as_o it_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o work_n

for_o the_o further_a proof_n and_o confirmation_n of_o this_o point_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o as_o jesus_n christ_n the_o second_o adam_n enter_v into_o the_o same_o covenant_n that_o the_o first_o adam_n do_v so_o by_o he_o be_v do_v whatsoever_o the_o first_o adam_n have_v undo_v so_o then_o the_o case_n stand_v thus_o that_o like_o as_o whatsoever_o the_o first_o adam_n do_v or_o

one_o with_o he_o all_o do_v in_o he_o and_o with_o he_o transgress_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n even_o so_o in_o respect_n of_o faith_n whereby_o believer_n be_v ingraft_v into_o christ_n and_o spiritual_o make_v one_o with_o he_o they_o do_v all_o in_o he_o and_o with_o he_o satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n in_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n and_o whosoever_o reckon_v thus_o reckon_v according_a to_o scripture_n for_o in_o rom._n 5.12_o all_o be_v say_v to_o have_v sin_v in_o adam_n sin_n in_o who_o all_o have_v sin_v say_v the_o text_n namely_o in_o adam_n as_o in_o a_o public_a

through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n and_o so_o as_o touch_v the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n the_o apostle_n argue_v that_o all_o believer_n must_v and_o shall_v arise_v because_o christ_n be_v
