forgiveness_n of_o sin_n the_o chief_a and_o principal_a cause_n be_v because_o the_o covenant_n and_o oath_n of_o god_n which_o contain_v this_o article_n in_o it_o be_v confirm_v by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o testator_n himself_o which_o be_v jehovah_n that_o god_n will_v not_o be_v any_o long_a mindful_a of_o our_o sin_n of_o the_o testator_n i_o say_v even_o of_o god_n himself_o which_o have_v make_v that_o covenant_n now_o what_o can_v be_v a_o great_a confirmation_n of_o this_o covenant_n and_o testament_n then_o when_o that_o personal_a word_n who_o be_v the_o true_a and_o everlasting_a god_n vouchsafe_v to_o confirm_v by_o his_o death_n which_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o in_o the_o flesh_n the_o same_o thing_n that_o he_o promise_v now_o it_o be_v plain_a out_o of_o the_o 31._o chapter_n of_o jeremy_n that_o it_o be_v jehovah_n himself_o that_o make_v that_o testament_n or_o covenant_n and_o in_o the_o eight_o chapter_n of_o hebrews_n verse_n 15.16_o and_o again_o in_o the_o 9_o it_o be_v plain_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o jehovah_n which_o by_o his_o death_n have_v confirm_v the_o same_o testament_n where_o there_o be_v a_o testament_n say_v he_o there_o

shall_v be_v confirm_v by_o the_o death_n of_o god_n himself_o that_o sin_n be_v forgive_v not_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v but_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v lay_v to_o our_o charge_n but_o
