sinner_n to_o repentance_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o pharisee_n verse_n 11._o who_o do_v outward_o appear_v righteous_a unto_o man_n chap._n 23.28_o which_o outward_a appearance_n be_v ground_n

the_o pharisee_n true_o righteous_a rep._n 2._o we_o retort_v upon_o they_o that_o the_o text_n speak_v of_o a_o wicked_a man_n as_o visible_o wicked_a therefore_o the_o righteous_a man_n may_v be_v understand_v of_o he_o that_o be_v visible_o righteous_a only_o such_o as_o paul_n whilst_o a_o pharisee_fw-mi phil._n 3.6_o and_o so_o the_o antithesis_fw-la be_v more_o direct_a and_o the_o

immediate_o and_o explicit_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o our_o assertion_n be_v because_o the_o lord_n do_v evident_o vindicate_v himself_o from_o the_o imputation_n cast_v upon_o he_o by_o the_o

their_o own_o principle_n which_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o express_a promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n 2._o though_o we_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o eternal_a life_n in_o old_a testament_n and_o new_a be_v promise_v to_o the_o penitent_a yet_o we_o deny_v that_o by_o life_n here_o be_v mean_v at_o least_o immediate_o and_o explicit_o eternal_a life_n but_o only_o

flagitious_a sinner_n may_v escape_v eternal_a death_n without_o repentance_n reply_n we_o deny_v the_o consequence_n because_o though_o this_o scripture_n do_v not_o explicit_o threaten_v eternal_a
