of_o sin_n which_o righteousness_n of_o god_n can_v be_v understand_v of_o his_o vindictive_a justice_n but_o of_o his_o mercy_n and_o truth_n in_o performance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n according_a to_o st._n john_n expression_n if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n god_n be_v righteous_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v sin_n 1_o john_n 1.9_o the_o second_o expression_n be_v in_o vers_n 28._o where_o he_o say_v we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o law_n of_o work_n where_o without_o the_o law_n of_o work_n must_v necessary_o exclude_v all_o penal_a satisfaction_n for_o break_v the_o law_n the_o notion_n of_o christ_n being_n adam_n surety_n for_o debt_n as_o bind_v in_o the_o same_o bond_n with_o he_o be_v defective_a for_o these_o reason_n as_o 1._o it_o suppose_v christ_n satisfaction_n to_o penal_a vindictive_a justice_n to_o be_v the_o first_o act_n of_o christ_n mediation_n which_o be_v against_o the_o absolute_a freedom_n of_o the_o law_n of_o

to_o the_o state_n wherein_o he_o be_v before_o he_o sin_v which_o be_v against_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n second_o christ_n suffer_v these_o thing_n and_o enter_v into_o glory_n
