upon_o saint_n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n out_o of_o the_o former_a chapter_n say_v he_o whereas_o s._n paul_n say_v we_o think_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n

paul_n speak_v as_o often_o as_o he_o say_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v and_o save_v without_o work_n here_o he_o seem_v to_o say_v plain_o that_o our_o first_o justification_n be_v without_o any_o

here_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o saint_n paul_n when_o as_o he_o say_v that_o without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n we_o be_v justify_v and_o he_o will_v have_v even_o in_o our_o first_o
