the_o death_n of_o christ_n second_o that_o by_o virtue_n of_o this_o communion_n we_o live_v by_o faith_n three_o that_o it_o be_v from_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o be_v quicken_v unto_o all_o holy_a obedience_n to_o come_v first_o to_o paul_n method_n we_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o as_o paul_n say_v he_o be_v crucify_v before_o he_o live_v so_o we_o must_v die_v before_o we_o can_v be_v make_v alive_a i_o may_v here_o distinguish_v betwixt_o death_n natural_a death_n civil_a as_o it_o be_v term_v in_o law_n death_n spiritual_a and_o death_n eternal_a that_o so_o i_o may_v signify_v what_o death_n i_o mean_v but_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a enough_o without_o that_o labour_n only_o remember_v that_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o die_v for_o sin_n as_o malefactor_n who_o be_v put_v to_o death_n another_o thing_n to_o die_v in_o sin_n as_o final_o impenitent_a sinner_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o die_v unto_o sin_n as_o the_o godly_a in_o which_o sense_n we_o must_v die_v before_o we_o can_v be_v make_v alive_a as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o body_n we_o must_v all_o die_v or_o all_o be_v change_v 15._o 1_o cor._n 15._o before_o we_o must_v live_v for_o ever_o
