pardon_v of_o sin_n as_o it_o do_v not_o qualify_v our_o nature_n for_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n so_o neither_o do_v it_o at_o all_o entitle_v man_n to_o it_o as_o the_o righteousness_n of_o

god_n in_o his_o new_a law_n of_o grace_n upon_o account_n of_o what_o our_o saviour_n have_v do_v and_o suffer_v to_o obtain_v it_o have_v make_v promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n to_o we_o upon_o

to_o have_v perform_v that_o condition_n on_o which_o eternal_a life_n be_v promise_v the_o one_o be_v as_o a_o right_n in_o law_n the_o other_o as_o a_o right_n by_o act_n of_o judgement_n ground_v on_o law_n which_o judicial_a act_n of_o god_n be_v that_o by_o which_o he_o justify_v we_o as_o that_o judge_n to_o who_o it_o belong_v to_o judge_n whether_o the_o term_n of_o his_o own_o law_n of_o

never_o make_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o heavenly_a glory_n nor_o be_v it_o man_n act_n but_o god_n and_o so_o not_o capable_a of_o be_v make_v a_o condition_n of_o such_o a_o

the_o right_n we_o have_v by_o the_o one_o which_o we_o have_v not_o by_o the_o other_o to_o the_o heavenly_a glory_n some_o have_v indeed_o argue_v that_o pardon_n of_o sin_n will_v stand_v we_o in_o
