say_v and_o only_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o thing_n of_o weight_n but_o first_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o show_v how_o we_o understand_v this_o question_n 1._o in_o what_o capacity_n christ_n

have_v it_o because_o we_o speak_v in_o the_o language_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n however_o to_o prevent_v cavil_v we_o will_v vouchsafe_v to_o yield_v to_o the_o bp_n term_n personal_a guilt_n which_o can_v import_v nothing_o but_o the_o commit_v sin_n remain_v on_o the_o sinner_n person_n and_o conscience_n as_o a_o forbid_a and_o condemn_a fault_n by_o the_o law_n neither_o do_v we_o say_v that_o christ_n commit_v these_o sin_n or_o be_v make_v to_o have_v commit_v they_o when_o our_o sin_n be_v lay_v upon_o he_o neither_o that_o his_o nature_n be_v physical_o or_o moral_o corrupt_v thereby_o last_o we_o can_v but_o adore_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o call_v personal_a guilt_n sin_n because_o 1._o a_o bare_a physical_a act_n as_o such_o be_v not_o sin_n and_o as_o
