at_o a_o venture_n this_n be_v so_o contrary_a to_o scripture_n that_o little_a need_n be_v say_v from_o the_o comparison_n between_o christ_n and_o adam_n it_o appear_v that_o though_o all_o man_n

that_o they_o confirm_v the_o proposition_n for_o he_o say_v though_o all_o man_n be_v in_o the_o public_a person_n justify_v do_v he_o not_o here_o tacit_o grant_v that_o every_o man_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o ransom_n as_o public_a person_n to_o be_v justify_v in_o he_o and_o what_o be_v this_o to_o what_o the_o proposition_n affirm_v viz._n that_o all_o he_o satisfy_v for_o be_v justify_v in_o or_o by_o his_o blood_n for_o to_o be_v justify_v in_o and_o by_o christ_n be_v not_o different_a and_o to_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n and_o by_o his_o blood_n be_v as_o little_a

for_o they_o they_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o pronunciation_n of_o the_o gospel_n before_o faith_n be_v wought_v in_o they_o but_o that_o such_o in_o time_n shall_v be_v justify_v and_o receive_v

again_o true_a the_o evangelical_a pronunciation_n of_o satisfaction_n be_v by_o faith_n but_o how_o do_v he_o prove_v that_o in_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n they_o be_v not_o justify_v before_o faith_n justification_n be_v not_o by_o blood_n shed_v only_o but_o the_o application_n of_o his_o blood_n his_o expression_n be_v herein_o something_o wild_a but_o i_o guess_v at_o his_o meaning_n thus_o that_o justification_n be_v not_o till_o another_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o heart_n but_o then_o i_o say_v if_o he_o mean_v it_o as_o do_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n it_o be_v false_a if_o as_o pronounce_v in_o the_o gospel_n it_o be_v true_a but_o beside_o this_o be_v nothing_o against_o the_o proposition_n because_o we_o say_v still_o they_o shall_v have_v that_o further_a work_n upon_o their_o heart_n one_o time_n or_o other_o true_a also_o many_o have_v receive_v this_o justification_n that_o once_o want_v it_o and_o some_o want_v it_o that_o shall_v have_v it_o but_o what_o be_v these_o to_o the_o purpose_n of_o prove_v that_o all_o that_o christ_n satisfy_v for_o shall_v not_o one_o time_n or_o other_o have_v it_o and_o as_o for_o that_o expression_n many_n of_o his_o elect_a want_n it_o for_o who_o by_o this_o objection_n christ_n shall_v not_o have_v die_v be_v too_o absurd_a to_o mention_v the_o objection_n be_v far_o from_o urge_v that_o he_o die_v not_o for_o those_o elect_n that_o want_v this_o justification_n but_o it_o affirm_v that_o all_o such_o though_o they_o now_o want_v it_o shall_v have_v it_o in_o time_n as_o for_o that_o cleanse_v 1_o john_n 1.7_o and_o forgiveness_n verse_n 9_o it_o speak_v of_o a_o further_o cleanse_v &c._n &c._n to_o such_o as_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o already_o justify_v by_o his_o blood_n and_o so_o not_o to_o this_o purpose_n more_o pertinent_a text_n may_v be_v produce_v to_o prove_v the_o proposition_n but_o this_o text_n be_v not_o so_o deficient_a as_o as_o he_o conceive_v when_o he_o cite_v it_o for_o whereas_o he_o speak_v of_o a_o further_o cleanse_v it_o be_v hard_o to_o guess_v at_o his_o meaning_n further_a than_o that_o he_o must_v mean_v one_o of_o these_o two_o or_o both_o further_a than_o justification_n or_o a_o cleanse_n further_a than_o that_o which_o be_v by_o the_o bloodshed_n of_o christ_n but_o both_o these_o be_v false_a that_o it_o speak_v of_o cleanse_v from_o guilt_n by_o justification_n appear_v by_o ver_fw-la 9_o where_o it_o expound_v it_o by_o forgive_a our_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v such_o as_o be_v by_o bloodshed_n appear_v in_o that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o what_o though_o it_o speak_v of_o they_o that_o be_v actual_o justify_v it_o say_v it_o be_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n and_o this_o be_v not_o impertinent_a to_o the_o business_n in_o hand_n but_o prove_v the_o proposition_n that_o those_o for_o who_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n satisfy_v his_o father_n they_o come_v in_o time_n to_o be_v cleanse_v from_o their_o sin_n by_o that_o blood_n this_o untruth_n be_v not_o only_o false_a and_o gross_a in_o itself_o but_o deny_v many_o say_n of_o
