these_o principle_n first_o that_o all_o man_n have_v sin_v and_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v guilty_a before_o god_n natural_o and_o in_o themselves_o rom._n 3.19.23_o now_o we_o know_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o law_n say_v it_o say_v to_o they_o which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o every_o mouth_n may_v be_v stop_v and_o all_o the_o world_n be_v culpable_a before_o god_n for_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n for_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o be_v deprive_v of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n gal._n 3.22_o but_o the_o scripture_n have_v conclude_v all_o under_o sin_n that_o the_o promise_n by_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v give_v to_o they_o that_o believe_v second_o that_o by_o man_n own_o work_v no_o flesh_n can_v be_v justify_v rom._n 3.20_o therefore_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v no_o flesh_n be_v justify_v in_o his_o sight_n for_o by_o the_o law_n come_v the_o knowledge_n of_o sin_n titus_n 3.5_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n which_o we_o have_v do_v but_o according_a to_o his_o mercy_n he_o save_v we_o by_o the_o wash_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n and_o the_o renew_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n gal._n 3.11_o and_o that_o no_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 even_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o god_n through_o faith_n justify_v i_o say_v before_o god_n for_o by_o work_n we_o may_v be_v justify_v before_o man_n of_o which_o justification_n the_o apostle_n james_n speak_v in_o his_o second_o chapter_n etc._n etc._n three_o that_o the_o righteousness_n which_o make_v we_o just_a be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n be_v make_v we_o by_o imputation_n 2._o cor._n 5.21_o for_o he_o have_v make_v he_o to_o be_v sin_n for_o we_o which_o know_v no_o sin_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o 1._o cor._n â—_o 30_o but_o you_o be_v of_o he_o in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o of_o god_n be_v make_v unto_o we_o wisdom_n and_o righteousness_n and_o sanctification_n and_o redemption_n rom._n 5.18.19_o likewise_o then_o as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o the_o fault_n come_v on_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n so_o by_o the_o justify_n of_o one_o the_o benefit_n abound_v towards_o all_o man_n to_o the_o justification_n of_o life_n for_o as_o by_o one_o man_n disobedience_n many_o be_v make_v sinner_n so_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o shall_v many_o also_o be_v make_v righteous_a phil._n 3.9_o and_o may_v be_v find_v in_o he_o that_o be_v 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 even_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o god_n through_o faith_n jer._n 23.6_o in_o his_o day_n juda_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o israel_n shall_v dwell_v safe_o and_o this_o be_v the_o name_n whereby_o they_o shall_v call_v he_o the_o lord_n our_o righteousness_n rom._n 4.7_o bless_a be_v they_o who_o iniquity_n be_v forgive_v and_o who_o sin_n be_v cover_v etc._n etc._n 4._o that_o this_o righteousness_n be_v make_v we_o only_o by_o faith_n and_o so_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n as_o it_o apprehend_v and_o lay_v hold_v upon_o and_o rely_v on_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n rom._n 3.28_o therefore_o we_o conclude_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o
