even_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o other_o as_o 2_o cor._n 5.14_o and_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o all_o the_o elect_n do_v prove_v that_o they_o be_v all_o dead_a and_o in_o a_o

they_o be_v dead_a and_o therefore_o be_v debtor_n to_o christ_n for_o their_o life_n and_o justification_n through_o faith_n in_o he_o and_o so_o no_o more_o to_o live_v to_o themselves_o but_o to_o

before_o the_o new_a therefore_o justification_n and_o life_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v not_o from_o eternity_n but_o in_o time_n though_o these_o thing_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o purpose_n
