ourselves_o let_v we_o inquire_v then_o what_o paul_n shall_v mean_v when_o he_o bid_v they_o that_o name_n the_o name_n of_o christ_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n and_o for_o our_o better_a

now_o if_o he_o mean_v as_o certain_o he_o do_v that_o they_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n shall_v depart_v from_o that_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n that_o be_v in_o themselves_o then_o

5.24_o sinful_a lust_n and_o sinful_a motion_n our_o mind_n and_o affection_n shall_v depart_v from_o they_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n or_o desire_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o again_o there_o be_v the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o the_o new_a man_n in_o saint_n now_o this_o be_v that_o that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o affection_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o soul_n shall_v not_o choose_v but_o depart_v from_o the_o affection_n &_o lust_n of_o our_o old_a man_n and_o shall_v be_v renew_v and_o

15.9_o i_o have_v show_v you_o already_o that_o depart_n from_o iniquity_n must_v be_v with_o the_o mind_n and_o affection_n or_o with_o the_o heart_n but_o how_o can_v that_o be_v where_o the_o

nothing_o can_v purify_v the_o heart_n but_o faith_n therefore_o nothing_o can_v make_v a_o professor_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n where_o faith_n be_v want_v so_o then_o when_o man_n profess_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n without_o have_v holy_a faith_n in_o he_o they_o still_o abide_v by_o their_o iniquity_n they_o depart_v not_o from_o their_o iniquity_n but_o rather_o make_v of_o their_o

without_o faith_n a_o man_n can_v please_v god_n because_o he_o can_v without_o it_o stand_v before_o he_o in_o the_o spotless_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n nor_o yet_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n

these_o thing_n can_v be_v apprehend_v and_o therefore_o those_o that_o want_v it_o whatever_o their_o profession_n be_v they_o will_v not_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n second_o repentance_n be_v
