and_o a_o sin_n both_o together_o after_o this_o he_o conclude_v because_o sin_n be_v not_o impute_v unto_o they_o that_o believe_v that_o christian_n be_v not_o to_o fear_v theft_n or_o adulterye_n or_o other_o sin_n but_o his_o conclusion_n do_v but_o lewd_o follow_v upon_o his_o premise_n for_o albeit_o former_a sin_n be_v do_v away_o by_o true_a faith_n and_o repentance_n yet_o all_o true_a

do_v not_o touch_v we_o only_o but_o the_o holy_a prophet_n &_o apostle_n also_o god_n by_o his_o prpophet_n isay_n c._n 53._o say_v that_o his_o just_a servant_n shall_v justify_v many_o by_o his_o

justice_n in_o man_n sanctify_v by_o god_n holy_a spirit_n and_o that_o such_o do_v good_a work_n please_v unto_o god_n we_o confess_v also_o that_o man_n by_o sin_n do_v merit_n death_n albeit_o his_o work_n be_v not_o so_o perfect_a that_o they_o can_v deserve_v eternal_a life_n final_o we_o know_v that_o the_o father_n sometime_o account_v the_o obedience_n of_o the_o law_n to_o be_v a_o
