often_o signify_v free_v make_v free_a so_o that_o these_o false_a teacher_n may_v be_v say_v by_o the_o power_n of_o common_a enlighten_v to_o be_v make_v free_a from_o many_o gross_a error_n and_o

that_o christ_n have_v buy_v they_o as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o the_o brethren_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o charity_n think_v they_o to_o be_v such_o too_o as_o christ_n have_v redeem_v but_o if_o

secret_n of_o man_n by_o jesus_n christ_n according_a to_o my_o gospel_n the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o place_n be_v to_o show_v the_o different_a degree_n of_o light_n and_o knowledge_n the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n have_v and_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v judge_v according_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o gentile_n have_v only_o the_o dim_a light_n of_o nature_n which_o yet_o do_v reveal_v some_o thing_n unto_o they_o as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o parent_n be_v to_o be_v honour_v and_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v kind_a and_o just_a one_o to_o another_o and_o the_o like_a but_o the_o jew_n have_v the_o write_a law_n which_o declare_v more_o of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o they_o now_o the_o apostle_n show_v v._o 12._o that_o as_o many_o as_o have_v sin_v without_o law_n that_o be_v that_o never_o have_v the_o write_a law_n they_o shall_v perish_v without_o law_n that_o be_v they_o shall_v not_o be_v judge_v and_o condemn_v for_o break_v the_o write_a law_n that_o be_v give_v by_o god_n to_o moses_n but_o they_o shall_v be_v judge_v and_o condemn_v for_o sin_v against_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n but_o whereas_o it_o may_v be_v object_v how_o can_v they_o be_v guilty_a of_o sin_n who_o never_o have_v the_o write_a law_n the_o apostle_n answer_v v._o 14._o that_o the_o gentile_n which_o have_v not_o the_o write_v law_n do_v by_o nature_n the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n these_o say_v he_o have_v not_o the_o law_n be_v a_o law_n unto_o themselves_o that_o be_v in_o some_o few_o thing_n they_o have_v the_o light_n of_o nature_n to_o be_v a_o law_n and_o light_n to_o they_o this_o the_o apostle_n set_v forth_o yet_o further_o v._o 15._o which_o show_v the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o be_v that_o though_o they_o have_v not_o that_o supernatural_a write_n of_o god_n law_n promise_v to_o the_o elect_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n yet_o they_o have_v a_o natural_a write_n of_o the_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n in_o some_o few_o particular_n as_o be_v say_v before_o and_o the_o apostle_n give_v this_o demonstration_n of_o it_o that_o these_o gentile_n have_v some_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a because_o their_o conscience_n sometime_o accuse_v they_o and_o bear_v witness_n against_o they_o and_o sometime_o their_o conscience_n excuse_v they_o as_o to_o some_o act_n but_o the_o apostle_n show_v that_o their_o conscience_n will_v more_o full_o accuse_v they_o in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n so_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v nothing_o to_o say_v why_o they_o shall_v not_o have_v the_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n pass_v against_o they_o then_o the_o apostle_n show_v that_o god_n will_v judge_v the_o world_n by_o jesus_n christ_n at_o the_o last_o day_n according_a to_o my_o gospel_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n that_o i_o preach_v this_o doctrine_n paul_n preach_v upon_o all_o occasion_n that_o god_n will_v judge_v the_o world_n by_o that_o man_n christ_n who_o he_o have_v ordain_v this_o short_a paraphrase_n may_v give_v light_n into_o this_o context_n i_o wonder_v that_o any_o shall_v bring_v this_o place_n for_o universal_a redemption_n 14._o another_o place_n he_o bring_v coloss_n 1.23_o if_o you_o continue_v in_o the_o faith_n ground_v and_o settle_v and_o be_v not_o move_v away_o from_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o you_o have_v hear_v and_o which_o be_v preach_v to_o every_o creature_n which_o be_v under_o heaven_n the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v to_o show_v that_o according_a as_o christ_n have_v command_v the_o apostle_n have_v preach_v the_o gospel_n all_o over_o to_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n to_o who_o god_n give_v they_o opportunity_n but_o the_o gospel_n have_v not_o be_v general_o preach_v before_o to_o all_o nation_n nor_o have_v it_o be_v so_o general_o preach_v since_o the_o apostle_n time_n but_o in_o opposition_n to_o judea_n the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v all_o over_o it_o be_v not_o confine_v to_o judea_n not_o that_o the_o apostle_n or_o any_o other_o do_v at_o that_o extraordinary_a time_n preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o individual_a person_n then_o in_o the_o world_n but_o to_o a_o great_a number_n then_o in_o all_o nation_n then_o know_v sure_o there_o be_v not_o then_o preacher_n enough_o to_o go_v to_o every_o town_n but_o the_o time_n be_v come_v to_o call_v the_o elect_a among_o the_o gentile_n the_o lord_n order_v so_o much_o preach_v every_o where_n as_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o bring_v those_o to_o believe_v who_o be_v ordain_v unto_o life_n christ_n be_v preach_v to_o a_o nation_n or_o a_o town_n be_v no_o proof_n that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o that_o nation_n or_o town_n but_o when_o the_o lord_n
