So then you may understand that place in the 7 chap. where the Apostle, though he was justified in the Spirit, acknowledgeth himself yet to be a sinner: and yet notwithstanding he saith in the 8 chap. There is now no condemnation to these which are in Christ Jesus. As many therefore of us as are justified ⟨image 13⟩through faith in Christ, w• are both sinners and just. Si• ners by reason of the imperfect mortification of our flesh, an• for that in this life (the relic of sin remaining in us) we can not have or attain the fullness of the Spirit. First because w• have through faith the first fruit and earnest of the Spirit: so tha• for our faith in Christ, God fatherly favouring us, doth no impute unto us that sin which remaineth in our flesh: neither doth judge us until that sinn• by death be quite broken, banished, and abolished.
