first_o in_o that_o justification_n be_v out_o of_o a_o man_n sanctification_n be_v within_o he_o second_o justification_n absolve_v a_o sinner_n and_o make_v he_o stand_v righteous_a at_o the_o bar_n of_o god_n judgement_n sanctification_n can_v do_v this_o three_o justification_n bring_v peace_n of_o conscience_n so_o do_v not_o sanctification_n but_o follow_v that_o peace_n thus_o the_o

which_o distemper_v and_o disorder_v the_o whole_a man_n his_o mind_n will_n and_o affection_n and_o carry_v he_o against_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o the_o three_o condition_n under_o christ_n we_o have_v three_o thing_n first_o substance_n of_o body_n and_o soul_n second_o faculty_n of_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n three_o a_o new_a create_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n before_o lose_v but_o

sanctification_n be_v such_o a_o gift_n of_o god_n as_o change_v the_o man_n not_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o body_n or_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o corruption_n not_o disorder_n and_o sinfulness_n of_o man_n it_o rectify_v but_o abolish_v not_o affection_n if_o a_o man_n be_v of_o sad_a disposition_n it_o neither_o increase_v nor_o take_v away_o but_o moderate_v his_o

that_o thus_o object_n against_o those_o who_o endeavour_n over_o their_o own_o reformation_n may_v see_v themselves_o deceive_v see_v it_o only_o temper_v the_o affection_n to_o such_o moderation_n as_o become_v holiness_n the_o second_o point_n be_v question_n whence_o have_v we_o our_o sanctification_n whether_o from_o our_o parent_n or_o from_o what_o original_a no_o it_o can_v flow_v from_o

notwithstanding_o their_o sanctification_n they_o convey_v the_o nature_n and_o sin_n of_o adam_n which_o come_v thus_o to_o pass_v answer_n god_n in_o the_o beginning_n give_v this_o law_n that_o
