from_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a act_n the_o phrase_n be_v use_v in_o scripture_n act_v 13.39_o and_o by_o he_o all_o that_o believe_v be_v justify_v from_o all_o thing_n from_o which_o you_o

a_o enemy_n be_v now_o make_v a_o friend_n he_o be_v now_o no_o long_o a_o stranger_n at_o home_n but_o be_v in_o the_o list_n of_o god_n household_n now_o this_o we_o say_v no_o soon_o do_v a_o man_n receive_v it_o but_o the_o selfsame_a hour_n that_o he_o receive_v it_o the_o bond_n be_v cancel_v the_o evidence_n be_v tear_v and_o fasten_v to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n and_o hang_v up_o

a_o cancel_a record_n the_o bond_n be_v become_v void_a second_o but_o now_o when_o we_o consider_v justification_n from_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a act_n i_o declare_v that_o so_o a_o man_n be_v only_o justify_v from_o sin_n past_a for_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o reason_n and_o scripture_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v justify_v from_o sin_n to_o come_v for_o scripture_n the_o apostle_n have_v it_o rom._n 3.25_o who_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n through_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a through_o the_o forbearance_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v clear_a also_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n a_o thing_n can_v be_v remit_v before_o it_o be_v commit_v nor_o

which_o be_v past_a but_o for_o justification_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v i_o will_v speak_v anon_o there_o i_o leave_v the_o last_o time_n i_o have_v now_o faith_n and_o i_o believe_v in_o

a_o act_n of_o infidelity_n to_o pray_v for_o it_o afterward_o but_o we_o do_v it_o and_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v it_o see_v psal._n 51._o david_n make_v that_o psalm_n after_o the_o prophet_n nathan_n

of_o david_n when_o nathan_n come_v unto_o he_o after_o he_o have_v go_v in_o unto_o bathsheba_n nathan_n tell_v he_o that_o god_n have_v take_v away_o his_o sin_n yet_o he_o cry_v here_o throughout_o the_o whole_a psalm_n to_o have_v his_o sin_n pardon_v and_o blot_v out_o so_o that_o though_o there_o be_v faith_n and_o assurance_n yet_o he_o still_o pray_v for_o it_o now_o bellarmine_n say_v

therefore_o if_o the_o jesuit_n have_v grace_n he_o will_v join_v with_o we_o to_o salve_v the_o matter_n rather_o than_o through_o our_o side_n to_o strike_v at_o god_n but_o it_o be_v a_o fallacy_n to_o join_v these_o two_o together_o for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v for_o a_o thing_n past_a it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o infidelity_n as_o to_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v create_v the_o world_n and_o
