and_o to_o the_o like_a purpose_n bellarmine_n 6._o dispute_v that_o justification_n do_v not_o consist_v in_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n alone_o but_o also_o in_o inward_a renovation_n and_o yet_o all_o this_o be_v but_o a_o mere_a colourable_a pretence_n for_o as_o they_o exclude_v from_o justification_n the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n by_o which_o only_o we_o have_v

of_o justice_n so_o in_o stead_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n by_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n they_o have_v bring_v in_o the_o utter_a expulsion_n extinction_n deletion_n of_o sin_n by_o infusion_n of_o righteousness_n and_o for_o this_o they_o have_v some_o show_n of_o reason_n for_o if_o they_o shall_v hold_v that_o justification_n consist_v partly_o in_o remission_n that_o be_v in_o the_o forgiveness_n or_o not_o imputation_n of_o sin_n and_o partly_o in_o renovation_n or_o sanctification_n then_o they_o must_v confess_v that_o there_o be_v two_o formal_a cause_n of_o
