they_o make_v our_o sanctification_n or_o righteousness_n inhaerent_a to_o be_v our_o justification_n to_o be_v justify_v be_v to_o be_v make_v righteous_a from_o all_o guiltiness_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o to_o be_v acquit_v and_o clear_v from_o the_o curse_n and_o penalty_n thereof_o to_o be_v sanctify_v be_v to_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o the_o yoke_n and_o bondage_n of_o sin_n and_o sinful_a lust_n

i_o must_v therefore_o speak_v further_o in_o this_o matter_n first_o therefore_o concern_v justification_n s._n paul_n before_o in_o this_o epistle_n call_v it_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n and_o say_v it_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o gospel_n from_o faith_n to_o faith_n chapter_n 1._o verse_n 17._o and_o then_o show_v that_o all_o man_n both_o jew_n &_o gentile_n be_v of_o themselves_o
