of_o the_o gospel_n why_o because_o the_o gospel_n all_o along_o offer_v christ_n to_o sinner_n to_o the_o chief_a of_o sinner_n to_o alien_n and_o to_o the_o ungodly_a then_o again_o if_o this_o be_v

of_o faith_n so_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o we_o near_o of_o a_o glorious_a privilidg_n that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o and_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o

the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o their_o own_o righteousness_n but_o they_o that_o walk_v after_o the_o spirit_n as_o if_o he_o
have_v say_v do_v not_o mistake_v i_o it_o be_v a_o great_a privilege_n to_o have_v the_o law_n fulfil_v for_o you_o but_o it_o be_v not_o by_o your_o own_o strictness_n and_o zeal_n and_o though_o

pet._n 2._o 10._o the_o lord_n know_v how_o to_o deliver_v the_o godly_a and_o to_o reserve_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v punish_v but_o chief_o those_o that_o walk_v after_o toe_n flesh_n in_o the_o

before_o all_o my_o do_v can_v please_v god_n but_o my_o believe_v present_v to_o god_n a_o perfect_a righteousness_n by_o faith_n please_v god_n and_o then_o all_o my_o work_n be_v accept_v there_o

believe_v this_o epistle_n it_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o this_o epistle_n to_o be_v the_o chief_a meaning_n of_o it_o be_v because_o that_o i_o see_v clear_o that_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a drift_n

the_o flesh_n and_o the_o other_o walk_v after_o the_o spirit_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o be_v so_o great_a affinity_n flesh_n 3._o why_o walk_v after_o the_o law_n be_v call_v walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o nearness_n between_o walk_v legal_o and_o walk_v sinful_o that_o they_o be_v promiscuous_o in_o scripture_n take_v one_o for_o another_o for_o let_v a_o man_n walk_v and_o
