god_n do_v not_o require_v this_o of_o they_o for_o they_o be_v under_o this_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o so_o he_o do_v require_v it_o of_o they_o or_o else_o it_o be_v some_o distinct_a special_a law_n whereby_o he_o require_v it_o of_o other_o and_o not_o of_o they_o by_o this_o notion_n god_n never_o make_v any_o law_n beside_o this_o one_o law_n of_o nature_n no_o positive_a law_n no_o

and_o why_o then_o must_v the_o command_n of_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o repentance_n for_o remission_n be_v no_o law_n when_o god_n command_v they_o because_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n require_v
