there_o must_v christ_n work_v to_o purge_v his_o conscience_n if_o ever_o he_o be_v make_v clean_o q._n but_o do_v none_o know_v christ_n to_o be_v salvation_n but_o such_o as_o feel_v his_o work_n

and_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o power_n bring_v death_n upon_o the_o first_o adam_n through_o out_o a._n yes_o for_o no_o part_n or_o property_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n that_o must_v live_v before_o god_n and_o as_o the_o second_o adam_n rise_v in_o power_n
the_o first_o adam_n be_v put_v to_o death_n and_o so_o the_o quicken_a spirit_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n go_v over_o the_o sinful_a flesh_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n and_o there_o be_v the_o

eternal_a a._n yes_o for_o life_n eternal_a be_v only_o in_o the_o son_n and_o man_n in_o his_o own_o life_n be_v alienate_v from_o it_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v die_v to_o his_o own_o life_n

he_o but_o all_o baptize_v down_o into_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n where_o they_o be_v dissolve_v into_o nothingness_n and_o there_o the_o power_n kill_v he_o and_o give_v he_o life_n again_o and_o so_o man_n lay_v down_o his_o own_o life_n and_o take_v up_o life_n in_o christ_n in_o which_o life_n he_o come_v to_o be_v raise_v in_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n and_o here_o be_v the_o pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n where_o man_n put_v on_o christ_n and_o be_v make_v a_o new_a creature_n and_o in_o a_o new_a life_n he_o then_o serve_v god_n and_o please_v god_n for_o his_o
