42._o of_o who_o the_o evangelist_n say_v that_o many_o of_o they_o believe_v on_o christ_n but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o pharisee_n dare_v not_o to_o confess_v he_o lest_o they_o shall_v be_v cast_v

of_o sin_n that_o be_v in_o man_n by_o nature_n such_o as_o they_o think_v original_a sin_n to_o be_v but_o in_o the_o other_o testimony_n he_o show_v that_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n shall_v not_o

a._n there_o be_v common_o in_o man_n but_o little_a ability_n by_o nature_n to_o perform_v those_o thing_n which_o god_n require_v none_o of_o they_o to_o who_o he_o discover_v his_o will._n

speak_v of_o mortality_n but_o of_o death_n itself_o but_o there_o be_v a_o wide_a difference_n between_o death_n and_o mortality_n inasmuch_o as_o a_o man_n may_v be_v mortal_a and_o yet_o never_o die_v q._n what_o therefore_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o those_o word_n that_o death_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n by_o sin_n a._n namely_o this_o that_o adam_n for_o sin_n be_v by_o the_o decree_n and_o sentence_n of_o god_n subject_v to_o eternal_a death_n and_o consequent_o all_o man_n inasmuch_o as_o they_o be_v propagate_v from_o he_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o same_o eternal_a death_n that_o the_o thing_n be_v so_o the_o comparison_n of_o christ_n with_o adam_n which_o the_o apostle_n make_v in_o the_o same_o chapter_n from_o the_o twelve_o verse_n to_o the_o end_n do_v sufficient_o

thereunto_o a._n it_o may_v be_v prove_v thus_o because_o that_o knowledge_n do_v far_o exceed_v man_n reason_n as_o the_o apostle_n express_o say_v a_o animal_n man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n

which_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o immortality_n and_o the_o way_n and_o mean_n tend_v thereunto_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o very_a thing_n itself_o q._n but_o can_v you_o make_v this_o plain_a by_o another_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n a._n yes_o by_o that_o rom._n 1._o 19_o 20._o where_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o what_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a

thing_n which_o god_n have_v by_o the_o gospel_n discover_v to_o man_n to_o be_v such_o as_o be_v invisible_a from_o the_o very_a creation_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o they_o can_v by_o no_o
