his_o member_n be_v deliver_v from_o both_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o curse_n your_o second_o query_n be_v this_o how_o be_v it_o conceivable_a that_o a_o infinite_a justice_n offend_v shall_v be_v

infinite_a sacrifice_n but_o what_o you_o mean_v by_o it_o and_o where_o scripture_n tell_v we_o i_o be_o yet_o for_o to_o learn_v the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o christ_n be_v make_v sin_n or_o a_o sin_n offer_v for_o we_o by_o take_v our_o sin_n and_o bear_v the_o curse_n but_o how_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v infinite_a remain_v to_o i_o unconceivable_a if_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n
