sin_n yet_o it_o can_v do_v any_o hurt_n at_o all_o but_o sa●_n he_o i_o thank_v god_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n chri●●_n who_o will_v deliver_v i_o from_o this_o body_n of_o death_n as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v indeed_o till_o a_o man_n look_v to_o christ_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o matter_n of_o bitterness_n and_o evil_a to_o be_v see_v as_o the_o certain_a fruit_n of_o sin_n and_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o but_o bitterness_n in_o sin_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v like_a to_o follow_v it_o but_o when_o person_n can_v once_o look_v to_o christ_n the_o case_n be_v alter_v what_o do_v he_o thank_v god_n for_o he_o thank_v god_n that_o though_o natural_o a_o body_n of_o death_n grow_v up_o by_o sin_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o prejudice_n in_o this_o kind_n can_v come_v to_o he_o through_o christ_n now_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v plain_o mean_a that_o he_o thank_v god_n in_o that_o sin_n can_v not_o do_v he_o or_o other_o any_o hurt_n mark_v how_o in_o

christ_n no_o you_o will_v say_v no_o condemnation_n in_o hell_n but_o yet_o as_o there_o be_v remainder_n of_o sin_n in_o god_n own_o people_n so_o there_o will_v some_o evil_a or_o other_o fall_n upon_o the_o commission_n of_o sin_n mark_v what_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o it_o in_o the_o 2._o and_o 4._o ver●●_n will_v you_o have_v the_o clear_a mind_n of_o the_o spirit_n ●in_v it_o there_o

in_o that_o it_o be_v weak_a through_o the_o flesh_n god_n send_v forth_o his_o son_n in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o for_o sin_n condemn_v sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n have_v free_v i_o from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n here_o christ_n stand_v for_o the_o deliverance_n of_o his_o people_n from_o condemnation_n from_o eternal_a wrath_n say_v some_o yea_o but_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n what_o be_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n but_o what_o the_o law_n

for_o fear_n of_o wrath_n break_v down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o you_o for_o such_o and_o such_o sin_n which_o you_o have_v commit_v for_o they_o can_v do_v you_o no_o hurt_n all_o your_o sin_n together_o can_v do_v you_o no_o harm_n all_o the_o sting_n and_o poison_n of_o your_o sin_n be_v spend_v upon_o the_o back_n of_o christ_n mark_v that_o excellent_a expression_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 15.56_o 57_o he_o tell_v we_o there_o indeed_o that_o the_o sting_n of_o death_n be_v sin_n and_o the_o strength_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o law_n so_o that_o here_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o sting_n in_o sin_n even_o to_o death_n itself_o but_o mark_v what_o follow_v thanks_o be_v to_o god_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v give_v we_o the_o victory_n what_o do_v he_o mean_a even_o the_o victory_n of_o overcome_v of_o sin_n and_o death_n that_o be_v his_o true_a meaning_n though_o natural_o sin_n have_v a_o sting_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o victory_n over_o this_o sting_n christ_n be_v the_o death_n of_o it_o as_o he_o take_v away_o the_o sting_n of_o it_o so_o that_o the_o sin_n of_o believer_n set_v up_o to_o affright_v they_o by_o satan_n or_o his_o

but_o just_a as_o you_o shall_v have_v child_n it_o may_v be_v put_v one_o of_o their_o company_n into_o hideous_a posture_n and_o a_o fearful_a and_o terrible_a representation_n cause_v every_o one_o

they_o must_v be_v wound_v notwithstanding_o all_o that_o christ_n have_v do_v if_o christ_n be_v hurt_v as_o much_o as_o sin_n can_v hurt_v he_o how_o can_v any_o man_n be_v hurt_v by_o it_o for_o who_o christ_n suffer_v if_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n take_v the_o sting_n out_o of_o it_o and_o carry_v it_o to_o his_o own_o grave_n how_o come_v it_o to_o have_v a_o new_a sting_n or_o do_v christ_n die_v in_o vain_a if_o he_o take_v away_o the_o sting_n of_o one_o sin_n and_o not_o the_o sting_n of_o another_o there_o be_v need_n of_o another_o christ_n it_o seem_v to_o take_v away_o that_o sting_n that_o be_v behind_o and_o so_o christ_n have_v not_o perfect_v for_o ever_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v i_o desire_v you_o to_o hear_v with_o patience_n this_o be_v the_o first_o

loose_v to_o the_o commission_n of_o sin_n as_o much_o as_o possible_o the_o apostle_n answer_v this_o with_o god_n forbid_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v god_n will_v never_o suffer_v any_o believer_n though_o never_o so_o weak_a through_o any_o such_o truth_n reveal_v to_o break_v out_o into_o any_o sin_n because_o where_o sin_n have_v abound_v grace_n have_v abound_v much_o more_o god_n will_v

he_o do_v appeal_v to_o the_o adversary_n themselves_o how_o such_o a_o inference_n as_o this_o can_v follow_v such_o a_o proposition_n he_o do_v not_o say_v positive_o that_o they_o can_v live_v in_o
