by_o who_o only_a obedience_n many_o be_v make_v righteous_a three_o we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n crucify_v and_o make_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o for_o two_o respect_n first_o because_o christ_n be_v make_v righteousness_n by_o god_n not_o to_o any_o but_o to_o those_o for_o who_o first_o god_n make_v he_o sin_n in_o deliver_v he_o to_o the_o death_n for_o they_o in_o which_o action_n he_o be_v special_o make_v our_o righteousness_n for_o god_n have_v ordain_v he_o to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n in_o his_o blood_n second_o because_o that_o the_o thing_n wherein_o faith_n do_v apprehend_v christ_n as_o righteousness_n be_v special_o his_o death_n &_o suffer_v which_o the_o believe_a heart_n do_v apprehend_v as_o do_v and_o perform_v for_o it_o in_o particular_a three_o the_o way_n how_o he_o make_v we_o righteous_a we_o say_v that_o it_o be_v by_o imputation_n both_o of_o christ_n obedience_n unto_o we_o as_o our_o own_o obedience_n or_o righteousness_n indeed_o before_o god_n and_o of_o faith_n to_o this_o end_n that_o it_o may_v be_v we_o see_v we_o possess_v it_o no_o otherwise_o but_o by_o faith_n last_o we_o say_v that_o by_o this_o imputation_n we_o have_v remission_n of_o sin_n because_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n impute_v unto_o we_o which_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o our_o iniquity_n be_v a_o
