we_o shall_v understande_v the_o more_o cleerlie_o the_o right_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n imputation_n if_o we_o do_v consider_v it_o in_o the_o two_o contrary_a phrase_n wherein_o it_o be_v use_v all_o to_o one_o sense_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o sometime_o our_o justification_n be_v describe_v negative_o by_o not_o impute_v of_o sin_n sometime_o affirmative_o by_o impute_v of_o

ver_fw-la 11._o and_o 5._o 17._o 18._o in_o the_o first_o phrase_n imputation_n come_v in_o betwixt_o christ_n obedience_n as_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v impute_v &_o justification_n as_o the_o end_n whereunto_o it_o be_v impute_v and_o it_o have_v reference_n to_o both_o in_o the_o second_o phrase_n imputation_n come_v in_o betwixt_o faith_n as_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v impute_v and_o righteousness_n as_o the_o end_n whereunto_o it_o be_v impute_v in_o the_o last_o phrase_n imputation_n come_v in_o betwixt_o righteousness_n itself_o as_o the_o thing_n impute_v and_o life_n as_o the_o end_n whereunto_o it_o be_v impute_v thus_o we_o see_v that_o imputation_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o justification_n have_v always_o reference_n to_o two_o thing_n and_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n now_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v what_o thing_n they_o be_v which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v impute_v concern_v which_o there_o be_v two_o extremity_n wherein_o man_n do_v

that_o which_o be_v inherent_a in_o us._n that_o opinion_n which_o be_v betwixt_o both_o seem_v to_o agree_v most_o with_o god_n truth_n that_o be_v that_o not_o only_a thing_n inherent_a in_o we_o but_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o inherent_a in_o we_o be_v impute_v to_o we_o therefore_o imputation_n be_v use_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o justification_n by_o grace_n and_o of_o justification_n by_o work_n as_o rom._n cha_n 4._o &_o likewise_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o account_v of_o we_o sinner_n because_o of_o our_o work_n and_o corruption_n inherent_a and_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o account_v of_o we_o righteous_a by_o grace_n through_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n rom._n chap._n 4._o this_o same_o be_v clear_a by_o other_o example_n of_o
