christian_n hold_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o law_n say_v the_o gospel_n confirm_v and_o whatsoever_o the_o gospel_n say_v the_o same_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o law_n that_o as_o moses_n be_v the_o

be_v put_v for_o righteousness_n death_n for_o life_n generation_n for_o regeneration_n and_o condemnation_n for_o salvation_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n man_n have_v only_o a_o natural_a estate_n in_o

and_o the_o the_o time_n of_o a_o man_n life_n after_o baptism_n into_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n of_o his_o righteousness_n and_o good_a fruit_n which_o arise_v from_o the_o regeneration_n 8._o a_o

and_o of_o the_o new_a man_n the_o nature_n of_o the_o old_a man_n be_v clean_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o new_a man_n as_o be_v earthly_a and_o corrupt_a with_o satan_n seed_n the_o nature_n of_o the_o new_a man_n be_v heavenly_a and_o bless_a with_o the_o celestial_a seed_n of_o god_n in_o what_o he_o be_v a_o old_a man_n he_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o a_o enemy_n to_o god_n in_o what_o he_o be_v regenerate_v he_o be_v righteous_a and_o holy_a and_o a_o friend_n to_o god_n the_o seed_n of_o god_n preserve_v he_o from_o sin_n so_o that_o he_o can_v sin_v as_o the_o seed_n of_o

there_o he_o bring_v in_o the_o comparison_n of_o goliath_n and_o such_o david_n the_o old_a man_n be_v perfect_a in_o his_o birth_n a_o one_o as_o be_v goliath_n the_o new_a man_n be_v like_o a_o
