and_o the_o title_n to_o those_o right_n be_v no_o way_n by_o law_n not_o by_o birth_n not_o by_o purchase_n not_o by_o desert_n but_o by_o the_o mere_a favour_n kindness_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n sect_n vii_o reason_n 1_o because_o our_o justification_n be_v contrary_a to_o our_o condemnation_n our_o title_n to_o death_n whereby_o we_o be_v condemn_v be_v by_o work_n condemnation_n condemnation_n for_o it_o be_v by_o sin_n for_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o many_o be_v dead_a our_o title_n then_o to_o life_n whereto_o we_o be_v

of_o the_o donor_n sect_n ix_o reason_n 3_o because_o the_o original_a right_n of_o justification_n be_v impunity_n or_o pardon_n for_o when_o god_n create_v these_o right_n unto_o we_o impunity_n impunity_n we_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o sin_n for_o in_o that_o state_n we_o be_v bear_v into_o the_o world_n and_o our_o first_o right_o be_v impunity_n or_o pardon_n i._n e._n to_o be_v account_v righteous_a hence_o our_o justification_n be_v so_o frequent_o term_v imputation_n of_o righteousness_n and_o absolution_n from_o sin_n which_o two_o attribute_n make_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n for_o they_o differ_v only_o in_o the_o term_n save_v that_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n be_v the_o better_a term_n because_o it_o be_v the_o term_n positive_a or_o term_v of_o access_n to_o

3._o to_o justify_v be_v to_o create_v a_o right_a to_o a_o man_n that_o have_v none_o before_o 4._o to_o justify_v be_v to_o restore_v a_o right_n to_o a_o man_n that_o have_v lose_v it_o 5._o to_o
