not_o boast_v of_o merit_v but_o rather_o cry_v out_o for_o woe_n against_o that_o guilt_n of_o his_o regenerate_v flesh_n say_v 7.23_o i_o see_v another_o law_n in_o my_o member_n rebel_a against_o

he_o carry_v nothing_o with_o he_o but_o a_o body_n he_o mean_v soul_n and_o body_n deserve_v by_o merit_v everlasting_a death_n and_o of_o his_o impossibility_n to_o perform_v the_o act_n of_o

of_o their_o worthinees_n nay_o neither_o we_o or_o our_o father_n be_v able_a to_o fulfil_v 15.10_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o god_n 8.3_o send_v his_o son_n in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a

which_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v boast_v of_o his_o work_n be_v regenerate_v he_o more_o tell_v we_o that_o god_n the_o father_n which_o raise_v 8.11_o up_o his_o son_n christ_n from_o death_n shall_v also_o quicken_v our_o mortal_a body_n not_o for_o any_o worthiness_n in_o we_o but_o because_o of_o his_o own_o gift_n even_o because_o his_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o we_o thus_o his_o divine_a wisdom_n have_v dispose_v the_o matter_n that_o both_o the_o action_n &_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o true_a righteousness_n may_v not_o descend_v one_o step_n from_o the_o majesty_n of_o his_o throne_n of_o grace_n assure_v thyself_o therefore_o christian_n reader_n that_o in_o man_n be_v no_o merit_v unless_o to_o death_n for_o sin_n which_o make_v all_o man_n 3.19_o culpable_a before_o god_n so_o it_o be_v his_o goodness_n to_o have_v mercy_n upon_o all_o therefore_o if_o thou_o will_v attain_v to_o true_a righteousness_n it_o be_v by_o the_o law_n not_o of_o work_n 3.22_o but_o of_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o all_o and_o upon_o all_o that_o believe_v for_o the_o redemption_n be_v not_o in_o man_n regenerate_v
