reconcile_v then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n for_o christ_n to_o die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o but_o withal_o actual_a reconciliation_n imply_v pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o if_o sin_n be_v

notwithstanding_o that_o love_n of_o god_n than_o it_o can_v imply_v no_o more_o but_o that_o god_n be_v willing_a to_o be_v reconcile_v if_o therefore_o the_o not-remission_n of_o sin_n be_v

if_o our_o adversary_n say_v that_o the_o freeness_n of_o grace_n be_v consistent_a with_o condition_n require_v on_o our_o part_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o admit_v of_o condition_n on_o god_n part_n especial_o when_o the_o condition_n require_v tend_v so_o high_o to_o the_o end_n of_o god_n govern_v the_o world_n in_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o hatred_n against_o sin_n and_o the_o

to_o be_v consider_v in_o sin_n the_o dishonour_n do_v to_o god_n by_o the_o breach_n of_o his_o law_n and_o the_o injury_n man_n do_v to_o themselves_o by_o it_o now_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o

to_o all_o penitent_a sinner_n but_o shall_v not_o god_n be_v free_a to_o vindicate_v his_o own_o honour_n and_o to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n to_o the_o world_n while_o he_o be_v the_o

our_o adversary_n own_o doctrine_n and_o must_v it_o be_v repugnant_a to_o god_n grace_n to_o admit_v of_o a_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n that_o the_o world_n may_v understand_v that_o it_o be_v no_o such_o easy_a thing_n to_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o sin_n commit_v against_o god_n but_o that_o as_o often_o as_o they_o consider_v the_o bitter_a suffering_n of_o christ_n in_o order_n to_o the_o obtain_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n that_o shall_v be_v the_o great_a argument_n to_o dissuade_v they_o from_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o but_o why_o shall_v it_o be_v more_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n for_o god_n free_o to_o pardon_v sin_n than_o it_o be_v ever_o presume_v to_o be_v in_o all_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o either_o jew_n of_o gentile_n

of_o the_o israelite_n because_o god_n out_o of_o his_o kindness_n to_o they_o direct_v they_o by_o the_o prophet_n and_o appoint_v the_o mean_n in_o order_n to_o it_o but_o although_o god_n appoint_v
