not_o adam_n sin_n alone_o but_o our_o own_o too_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o die_v and_o consequent_o that_o our_o justification_n be_v not_o from_o adam_n offence_n only_o but_o from_o those_o many_o that_o we_o be_v guilty_a of_o by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o so_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v v._o 12._o i.e._n all_o man_n die_v as_o well_o as_o adam_n because_o all_o have_v sin_v as_o well_o as_o he_o for_o until_o the_o law_n sin_n be_v in_o the_o world_n and_o again_o death_n reign_v from_o adam_n to_o moses_n even_o over_o they_o that_o have_v not_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n v._o 13_o 14._o i.e._n all_o that_o live_v between_o adam_n and_o moses_n die_v though_o they_o do_v not_o transgress_v a_o positive_a law_n as_o adam_n do_v but_o only_o sin_v against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n but_o if_o we_o look_v a_o little_a narrow_o into_o the_o apostle_n discourse_n the_o contrary_n will_v be_v evident_a for_o when_o he_o instance_v in_o a_o time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o law_n that_o condemn_v man_n to_o die_v for_o their_o own_o offence_n his_o design_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o sin_n and_o judgement_n that_o pass_v upon_o adam_n do_v reach_v to_o all_o man_n for_o what_o account_n else_o shall_v we_o give_v say_v he_o of_o the_o death_n of_o those_o that_o die_v before_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n be_v give_v they_o sin_v it_o be_v true_a but_o that_o can_v not_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o die_v because_o they_o be_v not_o under_o any_o law_n that_o threaten_v they_o with_o death_n if_o they_o sin_v and_o therefore_o since_o they_o die_v it_o can_v be_v by_o virtue_n of_o no_o other_o law_n but_o that_o by_o which_o adam_n be_v judge_v and_o condemn_v he_o do_v say_v indeed_o that_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v yet_o sin_n be_v not_o impute_v where_o there_o be_v no_o law_n which_o be_v the_o case_n of_o all_o that_o live_v between_o adam_n and_o moses_n the_o sum_n then_o of_o the_o apostle_n discourse_n be_v this_o that_o adam_n sin_n and_o the_o judgement_n that_o be_v pass_v upon_o he_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o all_o man_n die_v but_o we_o be_v not_o to_o think_v that_o man_n die_v only_o for_o adam_n sin_n in_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o if_o themselves_o be_v not_o sinner_n for_o though_o all_o have_v sin_v yet_o all_o die_v because_o of_o adam_n sin_n obj._n but_o if_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o he_o tell_v we_o afterward_o that_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n ans_fw-fr to_o which_o i_o reply_v that_o though_o by_o the_o undertake_n of_o our_o gracious_a mediator_n we_o be_v justify_v from_o our_o own_o particular_a offence_n i.e._n be_v put_v into_o such_o a_o state_n that_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o fear_v be_v condemn_v when_o we_o come_v to_o answer_v for_o our_o own_o action_n if_o with_o sincerity_n we_o conform_v our_o life_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n though_o we_o be_v guilty_a of_o many_o error_n and_o mistake_v yet_o it_o be_v plain_a from_o what_o he_o discourse_v before_o that_o it_o be_v adam_n offence_n alone_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o die_v because_o it_o be_v for_o adam_n offence_n alone_o that_o we_o be_v bear_v mortal_a and_o be_v under_o a_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n but_o by_o be_v justify_v from_o adam_n sin_n and_o condemnation_n we_o by_o sincere_o submit_v to_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n be_v acquit_v of_o all_o those_o particular_a sin_n that_o in_o our_o natural_a state_n we_o be_v guilty_a of_o because_o adam_n sin_n be_v the_o root_n and_o original_a cause_n of_o our_o own_o particular_a offence_n by_o be_v discharge_v from_o the_o punishment_n that_o adam_n sin_n bring_v upon_o mankind_n we_o upon_o our_o embrace_v the_o law_n of_o grace_n be_v accept_v by_o god_n to_o a_o liberty_n of_o work_v out_o our_o own_o salvation_n notwithstanding_o our_o own_o sin_n the_o many_o offence_n that_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v those_o that_o in_o their_o natural_a state_n man_n be_v guilty_a of_o for_o of_o these_o alone_o he_o speak_v in_o the_o forego_n verse_n when_o for_o the_o prove_v it_o be_v for_o adam_n transgression_n that_o we_o all_o die_v he_o instance_a in_o those_o that_o live_v between_o adam_n and_o moses_n who_o be_v not_o under_o the_o government_n of_o any_o other_o law_n but_o that_o of_o nature_n and_o therefore_o do_v not_o die_v for_o their_o own_o particular_a offence_n and_o of_o these_o he_o tell_v we_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v to_o justification_n as_o well_o as_o of_o adam_n sin_n because_o by_o be_v discharge_v from_o the_o punishment_n of_o adam_n transgression_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v condemn_v for_o those_o that_o no_o positive_a law_n do_v threaten_v with_o death_n but_o as_o for_o those_o sin_n that_o in_o our_o christian_n i.e._n our_o justify_v state_n we_o be_v guilty_a of_o we_o must_v be_v justify_v or_o condemn_v for_o they_o by_o the_o sentence_n of_o our_o mediator_n according_a to_o the_o very_a voice_n of_o the_o law_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o live_v by_o 2._o then_o justification_n put_v we_o into_o a_o possibility_n of_o live_v again_o after_o death_n for_o ever_o for_o since_o it_o be_v the_o take_v off_o from_o we_o the_o curse_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o our_o nature_n for_o the_o public_a transgression_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n it_o take_v away_o that_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o we_o die_v and_o which_o if_o it_o be_v not_o take_v away_o will_v for_o ever_o hold_v we_o in_o a_o state_n of_o death_n the_o reason_n why_o we_o die_v be_v because_o god_n have_v doom_v we_o to_o it_o and_o that_o which_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o die_v will_v be_v a_o reason_n too_o why_o we_o shall_v never_o live_v again_o if_o god_n in_o mercy_n have_v not_o pity_v our_o condition_n and_o absolve_v we_o from_o the_o gild_n for_o which_o we_o be_v condemn_v to_o die_v for_o as_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o

that_o the_o import_n of_o the_o sentence_n of_o death_n we_o fall_v under_o be_v nothing_o less_o than_o a_o eternal_a separation_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n a_o doom_n that_o adjudge_v the_o

divine_a displeasure_n for_o ever_o and_o as_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o judgement_n to_o condemnation_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o all_o man_n so_o the_o meaning_n of_o that_o free_a gift_n that_o be_v come_v upon_o all_o man_n to_o justification_n of_o life_n be_v the_o hope_n of_o rise_v again_o to_o that_o immortality_n we_o lose_v for_o by_o justify_v we_o god_n acquit_v we_o
