language_n to_o take_v away_o a_o thing_n it_o be_v powerful_o thorough_o perfect_o and_o for_o ever_o to_o take_v it_o away_o so_o to_o remove_v it_o as_o that_o it_o come_v not_o into_o

sacrifice_n can_v not_o take_v away_o sin_n heb._n 10.3_o 4._o imply_v that_o if_o their_o sin_n have_v be_v take_v away_o by_o those_o sacrifice_n than_o they_o shall_v never_o have_v be_v remember_v any_o more_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o when_o john_n say_v of_o the_o lamb_n of_o god_n he_o takeh_o away_o sin_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v he_o so_o remove_v they_o or_o take_v they_o

this_o will_v be_v further_o manifest_v if_o we_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v to_o take_v away_o sin_n now_o to_o take_v away_o sin_n in_o the_o scripture_n sense_n be_v to_o take_v away_o the_o

this_o place_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v as_o i_o conceive_v the_o nation_n of_o the_o gentile_n who_o be_v here_o call_v the_o world_n and_o in_o other_o place_n the_o heathen_a the_o

yet_o without_o strength_n in_o due_a time_n christ_n die_v for_o the_o ungodly_a ungodly_a and_o
so_o it_o agree_v with_o that_o in_o rom_n 4.5_o he_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a there_o meaning_n be_v when_o we_o be_v without_o strength_n and_o altogether_o ungodly_a one_o chtist_n die_v for_o

and_o that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o 8.9.10.11_o verse_n will_v justify_v this_o interpretation_n say_v he_o herein_o iâ—_n the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o while_o we_o be_v sinner_n ungodly_a christ_n die_v for_o we_o that_o be_v we_o be_v in_o ourselves_o before_o god_n justify_v by_o his_o death_n or_o bloodshedding_n for_o so_o it_o be_v say_v in_o

one_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v verse_n 18_o to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n or_o justification_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n for_o so_o he_o say_v in_o page_n 23._o line_n 7._o i_o answer_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n still_o

it_o come_v glorious_o and_o powerful_o upon_o they_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v how_o weak_o and_o unwarrantable_o he_o allege_v this_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o say_v for_o all_o person_n when_o as_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n

from_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n here_o mention_v it_o be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n stand_v in_o

the_o application_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n unto_o the_o person_n here_o mention_v in_o verse_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o exceed_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o in_o verse_n 16_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unto_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o this_o 18._o ver_fw-la it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o in_o verse_n seventeen_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o justification_n and_o salvation_n here_o mention_v be_v speak_v of_o those_o only_o who_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n those_o who_o receive_v it_o that_o be_v those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v â—_o time_n call_v â—_o gift_n which_o to_o whosoever_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o all_o man_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n we_o can_v neither_o understand_v all_o person_n from_o

unto_o they_o according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v that_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o to_o justify_v his_o distinction_n i_o shall_v

whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v the_o first_o of_o john_n 5.10.11.12_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o scripture_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o witness_n in_o himself_o and_o bear_v record_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v his_o gift_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o this_o life_n be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v but_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o therefore_o whosoever_o seek_v for_o life_n and_o salvation_n by_o his_o own_o work_n or_o righteousness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o jesus_n christ_n crucify_v and_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o receive_v or_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n which_o god_n give_v of_o his_o son_n and_o whereas_o he_o think_v to_o strengthen_v his_o distinction_n by_o say_v there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o consider_v that_o these_o word_n in_o christ_n when_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o or_o apply_v unto_o redemption_n justification_n

and_o thus_o in_o open_v of_o these_o scripture_n and_o these_o expression_n it_o appear_v how_o unsound_a and_o unwarrantable_a his_o distinction_n be_v and_o whereas_o he_o further_o say_v speak_v

have_v with_o what_o brevity_n and_o plainness_n i_o can_v declare_v the_o time_n of_o which_o the_o holy_a spirit_n here_o speak_v of_o when_o he_o say_v god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o

hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o by_o the_o world_n in_o this_o scripture_n we_o can_v in_o no_o wise_n understand_v all_o person_n or_o every_o person_n in_o the_o world_n from_o first_o to_o last_o

here_o speak_v of_o this_o reconciliation_n of_o the_o world_n unto_o himself_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o the_o remission_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n it_o be_v no_o less_o than_o make_v they_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o cod_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o world_n unto_o himself_o he_o say_v in_o the_o very_a next_o word_n not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n unto_o they_o now_o according_a to_o this_o scripture_n not_o to_o have_v sin_n impute_v it_o be_v to_o be_v true_o bless_v and_o therefore_o the_o very_a same_o thing_n which_o david_n in_o the_o 32._o psalm_n call_v the_o not_o impute_v of_o sin_n paul_n in_o rom._n call-leth_a the_o impute_v of_o righteousness_n through_o faith_n in_o christ._n 23_o rom._n 4.11.22.23.24_o james_n â—â—_o 23_o and_o so_o far_o as_o i_o know_v we_o never_o read_v of_o the_o not_o impute_v of_o sin_n or_o the_o impute_v of_o righteousness_n but_o only_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n so_o that_o when_o it_o be_v say_v god_n impute_v not_o their_o sin_n to_o they_o we_o understand_v that_o he_o

in_o the_o 21._o verse_n where_o it_o be_v say_v he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o that_o be_v we_o who_o believe_v in_o christ_n for_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o and_o other_o heliever_n be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o and_o thus_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n reconcile_a the_o world_n unto_o himself_o not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n unto_o they_o that_o be_v give_v they_o the_o remission_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n and_o put_v they_o into_o a_o

to_o reconcile_v the_o world_n unto_o god_n and_o this_o power_n of_o his_o death_n have_v run_v along_o ever_o since_o in_o all_o age_n in_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n until_o this_o time_n

right_o understand_v what_o the_o holy_a spirit_n mean_v when_o he_o say_v god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o world_n unto_o himself_o we_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n understand_v the_o world_n in_o this_o place_n to_o signify_v all_o person_n or_o every_o person_n in_o the_o world_n from_o first_o to_o last_o but_o by_o world_n in_o this_o place_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o gentile_n who_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o until_o then_o except_o some_o first_o fruit_n be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o he_o this_o then_o be_v the_o

shall_v further_o prove_v that_o this_o opinion_n or_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o person_n be_v not_o a_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n nor_o agreeable_a to_o the_o scripture_n right_o understand_v therefore_o to_o make_v this_o the_o ground_n or_o foundation_n of_o faith_n as_o they_o do_v be_v to_o build_v upon_o a_o sandy_a foundation_n and_o if_o the_o foundation_n be_v sandy_a i_o be_o sure_a the_o building_n can_v be_v strong_a second_o such_o a_o person_n be_v much_o to_o be_v question_v for_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o faith_n i_o say_v not_o for_o the_o strength_n of_o his_o faith_n but_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o who_o have_v no_o other_o or_o better_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o he_o than_o this_o that_o he_o have_v suffer_v for_o all_o person_n and_o it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o such_o a_o one_o who_o thus_o speak_v and_o persist_v in_o it_o have_v not_o yet_o feel_v the_o lively_a and_o powerful_a working_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n within_o he_o open_v his_o eye_n and_o draw_v his_o heart_n to_o come_v to_o jesus_n christ_n three_o although_o they_o say_v that_o no_o man_n have_v any_o certain_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o he_o and_o that_o he_o be_v redeem_v by_o jesus_n christ_n except_o he_o believe_v that_o he_o have_v suffer_v for_o all_o person_n yet_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o a_o sinner_n in_o who_o heart_n and_o mind_n god_n be_v please_v to_o reveal_v jesus_n christ_n and_o he_o crucify_v give_v he_o to_o see_v the_o pretiousnesse_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o need_n of_o he_o drawing_z or_o call_v he_o by_o his_o heavenly_a power_n to_o receive_v christ_n or_o believe_v in_o he_o for_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n everlasting_a teach_v he_o to_o set_v a_o high_a price_n upon_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o embrace_v it_o to_o trust_v in_o it_o and_o to_o account_v all_o thing_n beside_o loss_n and_o dung_n enable_v he_o withalll_v by_o the_o same_o power_n sincere_o to_o love_n jesus_n christ_n to_o kiss_v his_o sceptre_n to_o confess_v his_o name_n to_o deny_v himself_o to_o take_v up_o his_o cross_n daily_o and_o follow_v christ_n i_o say_v it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o such_o a_o person_n do_v free_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v a_o justify_v person_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n he_o be_v righteous_a in_o his_o righteousness_n christ_n be_v he_o &_o he_o be_v christ_n and_o he_o have_v now_o no_o certain_a ground_n to_o believe_v or_o to_o be_v assure_v that_o indeed_o jesus_n christ_n be_v his_o redeemer_n and_o he_o be_v one_o of_o the_o redeem_v once_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o then_o when_o god_n be_v please_v to_o go_v yet_o further_o that_o be_v to_o clear_v up_o to_o he_o by_o the_o teach_n of_o his_o spirit_n the_o former_a gracious_a working_n of_o god_n in_o he_o and_o to_o witness_v to_o his_o heart_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n his_o reconciliation_n and_o sonship_n he_o be_v now_o sweet_o assure_v and_o persuade_v upon_o good_a ground_n that_o christ_n be_v he_o and_o he_o be_v christ_n that_o christ_n love_v he_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o he_o that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n a_o heir_n of_o god_n a_o joint_a heir_n with_o jesus_n christ_n these_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v say_v be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o clear_a experience_n of_o many_o christian_n who_o be_v and_o know_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o redeemed_z once_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o see_v no_o ground_n from_o scripture_n to_o receive_v that_o opinion_n of_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o person_n and_o as_o for_o they_o who_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n and_o make_v it_o the_o foundation_n of_o their_o faith_n i_o advise_v they_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o they_o build_v not_o their_o faith_n hope_n and_o comfort_n upon_o a_o sandy_a foundation_n so_o much_o for_o this_o sixteenth_o and_o last_o it_o be_v resolve_v by_o they_o upon_o the_o question_n that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n suffering_n for_o all_o be_v the_o subject_a matter_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o without_o this_o no_o man_n have_v any_o thing_n to_o preach_v to_o the_o world_n no_o glad_a tiding_n no_o remission_n of_o sin_n no_o doctrine_n of_o reconciliation_n no_o grace_n or_o

this_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n suffering_n for_o all_o person_n be_v not_o the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n nor_o the_o subject_a matter_n of_o the_o gospel_n neither_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n find_v in_o the_o gospel_n nor_o in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n right_o understand_v second_o it_o be_v strange_a that_o no_o man_n have_v any_o thing_n to_o preach_v to_o the_o
