therefore_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v we_o to_o prove_v and_o try_v and_o examine_v ourselves_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o be_v deceive_v and_o therefore_o god_n people_n shall_v be_v careful_a

for_o the_o second_o thing_n concern_v that_o justification_n that_o be_v obtain_v by_o faith_n i_o show_v you_o that_o the_o word_n justification_n be_v derive_v from_o justice_n or_o righteousness_n and_o as_o many_o way_n as_o justice_n and_o righteousness_n may_v be_v take_v so_o many_o way_n may_v justification_n be_v take_v sometime_o for_o justification_n of_o righteousness_n in_o a_o man_n

he_o now_o this_o be_v do_v by_o transfer_v the_o debt_n from_o one_o person_n to_o another_o so_o that_o we_o see_v this_o imputation_n of_o sin_n to_o christ_n and_o of_o christ_n righteousness_n to_o we_o be_v most_o necessary_a it_o must_v be_v so_o and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o testimony_n for_o it_o in_o scripture_n yet_o reason_n show_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o righteousness_n but_o by_o god_n acceptation_n of_o we_o in_o christ_n as_o if_o we_o have_v never_o sin_v there_o be_v the_o difference_n then_o to_o he_o that_o work_v not_o but_o believe_v in_o he_o that_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a his_o faith_n be_v account_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n but_o do_v god_n justify_v the_o ungodly_a that_o be_v a_o hard_a speech_n we_o read_v in_o the_o proverb_n he_o that_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o condemn_v the_o just_a even_o they_o both_o be_v abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n but_o here_o we_o must_v understand_v this_o as_o we_o do_v some_o other_o scripture_n we_o read_v in_o john_n that_o the_o blind_a see_v the_o lame_a walk_n the_o dumb_a speak_v it_o be_v impossible_a for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v blind_a and_o see_v to_o be_v dumb_a and_o speak_v all_o at_o once_o yet_o take_v the_o chief_a of_o sinner_n suppose_v paul_n and_o he_o be_v so_o in_o his_o own_o account_n but_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n alter_v he_o god_n justify_v the_o

in_o proceed_v in_o this_o point_n i_o do_v reflect_v a_o little_a back_n god_n find_v a_o man_n with_o a_o number_n of_o sin_n full_a of_o sin_n and_o forgive_v these_o sin_n now_o i_o demand_v

from_o this_o or_o that_o thing_n there_o be_v first_o justification_n of_o a_o man_n person_n he_o that_o be_v a_o enemy_n be_v now_o make_v a_o friend_n he_o be_v now_o no_o long_o a_o stranger_n at_o home_n but_o be_v in_o the_o list_n or_o god_n household_n now_o this_o we_o say_v no_o soon_o do_v a_o man_n receive_v it_o but_o the_o selfsame_a hour_n that_o he_o receive_v it_o the_o bond_n be_v cancel_v the_o evidence_n be_v tear_v and_o fasten_v to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n and_o hang_v up_o among_o the_o record_n whereas_o before_o it_o be_v a_o evidence_n against_o we_o and_o will_v have_v lie_v heavy_a on_o we_o at_o the_o bar_n but_o now_o it_o be_v fasten_v to_o the_o cross_n as_o a_o cancel_v record_n the_o bond_n be_v become_v void_a second_o but_o now_o when_o we_o consider_v justification_n from_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a act_n i_o declare_v that_o so_o a_o man_n be_v only_o justify_v from_o sin_n past_a for_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o reason_n and_o scripture_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v from_o sin_n to_o come_v for_o scripture_n the_o apostle_n have_v it_o rom._n 3.25_o who_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n through_o say_v in_o his_o blood_n to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a through_o the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v clear_a also_o
