that_o christ_n will_v suffer_v death_n without_o first_o consider_v somewhat_o else_o that_o require_v that_o suffering_n and_o something_o that_o put_v a_o value_n upon_o it_o 3._o so_o that_o the_o

the_o follow_a effect_n of_o christ_n death_n do_v all_o presuppose_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o justice_n and_o hence_o christ_n death_n become_v so_o please_v to_o god_n not_o as_o death_n but_o as_o

the_o end_n why_o he_o satisfy_v his_o justice_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o son_n be_v that_o he_o may_v honourable_o wise_o and_o just_o give_v out_o the_o follow_a benefit_n which_o he_o give_v out_o hereupon_o so_o that_o christ_n death_n be_v as_o to_o god_n first_o satisfactory_a and_o then_o meritorious_a of_o further_a benefit_n now_o faith_n very_o remote_o follow_v all_o this_o

to_o it_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o consequence_n be_v that_o the_o same_o thing_n can_v be_v before_o and_o not_o before_o before_o their_o knowledge_n of_o election_n and_o not_o before_o it_o if_o

of_o these_o two_o thing_n will_v be_v reply_v to_o this_o 1._o that_o faith_n be_v before_o love_n and_o gratitude_n and_o a_o sufficient_a sign_n 2._o that_o it_o may_v be_v know_v without_o sign_n
