if_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v not_o accept_v for_o our_o justification_n from_o the_o old_a law_n and_o imputable_a to_o we_o it_o be_v not_o desirable_a to_o be_v impute_v to_o we_o to_o bring_v

because_o christ_n purchase_v the_o law_n and_o promulgation_n of_o it_o just_a as_o if_o they_o shall_v say_v if_o adam_n have_v stand_v he_o have_v be_v justify_v by_o his_o work_n for_o the_o
