for_o we_o who_o know_v no_o sin_n that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o make_v the_o righteousness_n how_o come_v we_o to_o be_v make_v why_o by_o faith_n in_o he_o phil._n 3.9_o and_o be_v find_v in_o he_o not_o have_v my_o own_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o the_o law_n but_o that_o which_o be_v through_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o god_n through_o faith_n so_o that_o the_o way_n for_o a_o soul_n that_o be_v trouble_v with_o sin_n and_o guilt_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o like_a be_v to_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o to_o rest_v upon_o he_o who_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o bring_v in_o a_o righteousness_n that_o be_v sufficient_a for_o we_o five_o if_o we_o must_v believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o can_v never_o be_v true_o settle_v in_o our_o comfort_n and_o peace_n without_o faith_n in_o he_o then_o let_v we_o fetch_v our_o comfort_n our_o peace_n our_o assurance_n from_o christ_n by_o believe_v and_o not_o from_o any_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o not_o from_o our_o repentance_n and_o obedience_n and_o sanctification_n for_o these_o be_v mix_v with_o imperfection_n these_o be_v defile_v with_o our_o corruption_n these_o be_v ebb_v and_o flow_v so_o will_v your_o comfort_n and_o peace_n and_o assurance_n be_v so_o long_o as_o you_o feed_v they_o from_o these_o these_o do_v not_o make_v we_o righteous_a before_o god_n it_o may_v be_v before_o man_n or_o in_o our_o own_o eye_n may_v make_v we_o righteous_a our_o repentance_n our_o obedience_n our_o holiness_n but_o they_o do_v not_o make_v we_o so_o before_o god_n if_o we_o raise_v our_o comfort_n and_o peace_n and_o assurance_n from_o these_o it_o be_v from_o our_o own_o act_n and_o this_o savour_v too_o much_o of_o a_o legal_a spirit_n if_o we_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o fetch_v all_o from_o he_o it_o will_v be_v certain_a and_o last_a and_o solid_a and_o will_v be_v unshaken_a isa_n 45.24_o it_o
