that_o the_o justification_n by_o faith_n be_v sufficient_a of_o itself_o but_o go_v about_o still_o to_o be_v make_v righteous_a by_o the_o law_n unto_o who_o s._n paul_n say_v ●_o jesus_n christ_n

and_o to_o come_v as_o saint_n paul_n and_o saint_n john_n declare_v 12._o wherefore_o as_o often_o as_o we_o apply_v this_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o our_o soul_n by_o faith_n out_o of_o all_o doubt_n we_o obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o become_v good_a &_o righteous_a before_o god_n through_o his_o righteousness_n 3_o and_o therefore_o after_o that_o saint_n paul_n
