say_v david_n who_o transgression_n be_v forgive_v and_o who_o sin_n be_v cover_v bless_v be_v
author_n of_o sin_n why_o thus_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v sin_n nothing_o will_v god_n damn_v a_o man_n and_o send_v he_o to_o hell_n for_o nothing_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o nothing_o as_o you_o make_v it_o a_o man_n be_v not_o damn_v for_o nothing_o it_o be_v a_o nothing_o privative_a a_o absence_n of_o that_o that_o shall_v be_v and_o that_o a_o man_n ought_v to_o

as_o david_n describe_v the_o blessedness_n of_o the_o man_n to_o who_o the_o lord_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n etc._n etc._n say_v bless_a be_v they_o who_o iniquity_n be_v forgive_v and_o who_o sin_n be_v cover_v the_o apostle_n cite_v the_o prophet_n david_n psal._n 42._o mark_v the_o apostle_n conclusion_n and_o how_o he_o prove_v it_o his_o conclusion_n be_v that_o man_n be_v bless_v unto_o who_o the_o lord_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n his_o argument_n then_o must_v needs_o be_v thus_o frame_v he_o who_o god_n forgive_v be_v bless_v but_o he_o to_o who_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n have_v his_o sin_n forgive_v he_o therefore_o he_o be_v bless_v now_o how_o can_v this_o assumption_n hold_v if_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v two_o distinct_a act_n for_o not_o impute_v righteousness_n be_v not_o to_o bring_v in_o light_n which_o keep_v out_o darkness_n but_o observe_v the_o apostle_n to_o
