he_o shall_v not_o set_v free_a from_o sin_n all_o and_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n furthermore_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o justify_v and_o set_v free_a all_o man_n there_o will_v be_v fraud_n and_o folly_n impute_v to_o god_n and_o christ_n for_o where_o there_o be_v fair_a and_o honest_a deal_n the_o buyer_n and_o the_o seller_n be_v agree_v upon_o the_o same_o term_n as_o if_o the_o buyer_n intend_v to_o have_v so_o many_o in_o number_n be_v it_o ten_o twenty_o a_o hundred_o or_o a_o thousand_o the_o seller_n intend_v the_o same_o number_n also_o and_o the_o same_o person_n or_o else_o there_o be_v fraud_n in_o the_o one_o and_o folly_n in_o the_o other_o now_o christ_n be_v the_o purchaser_n and_o if_o he_o intend_v by_o his_o death_n to_o ransom_v all_o man_n than_o god_n the_o father_n must_v intend_v the_o same_o and_o must_v justify_v and_o deliver_v from_o wrath_n even_o all_o man_n he_o must_v in_o justice_n deliver_v as_o many_o as_o christ_n buy_v and_o the_o same_o person_n that_o be_v all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n or_o else_o you_o impute_v fraud_n and_o folly_n to_o god_n and_o to_o christ_n i_o shall_v enlarge_v myself_o upon_o this_o last_o argument_n by_o descend_v to_o some_o particular_n as_o thus_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o justify_v and_o save_v eternal_o judas_n pharaoh_n cain_n corah_n and_o his_o wicked_a company_n for_o who_o christ_n die_v as_o say_v arminian_o then_o he_o shall_v be_v very_o unjust_a this_o i_o thus_o prove_v if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n pharaoh_n and_o other_o abominable_a wicked_a man_n then_o have_v they_o suffer_v in_o this_o life_n the_o full_a wrath_n of_o god_n for_o all_o their_o sin_n and_o have_v make_v a_o sufficient_a and_o perfect_a satisfaction_n to_o god_n justice_n already_o here_o for_o though_o they_o suffer_v not_o in_o this_o life_n in_o their_o own_o person_n yet_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o than_o they_o suffer_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n when_o in_o this_o life_n he_o die_v on_o the_o cross_n for_o they_o which_o be_v to_o be_v reckon_v as_o their_o own_o death_n and_o suffering_n this_o i_o thus_o prove_v look_v what_o a_o man_n surety_n perform_v for_o he_o that_o be_v reckon_v as_o do_v by_o himself_o as_o in_o case_n my_o surety_n pay_v my_o debt_n it_o be_v reckon_v as_o my_o payment_n for_o thereby_o i_o be_o discharge_v so_o if_o christ_n pay_v the_o debt_n of_o judas_n pharaoh_n and_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v as_o if_o they_o have_v pay_v it_o in_o their_o own_o person_n and_o so_o they_o must_v be_v discharge_v hence_o it_o follow_v that_o since_o judas_n and_o other_o have_v suffer_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v to_o be_v reckon_v as_o their_o own_o suffering_n 1._o that_o judas_n and_o pharaoh_n have_v make_v a_o full_a and_o perfect_a satisfaction_n to_o god_n justice_n for_o all_o their_o sin_n have_v suffer_v in_o this_o life_n the_o second_o death_n and_o hell_n with_o the_o pain_n thereof_o or_o what_o be_v equivalent_a thereunto_o 2._o that_o god_n must_v in_o justice_n justify_v and_o save_v this_o wicked_a crew_n eternal_o or_o else_o he_o will_v be_v a_o unjust_a judge_n for_o he_o shall_v punish_v one_o sin_n twice_o once_o in_o christ_n the_o surety_n and_o once_o again_o in_o judas_n the_o principal_a so_o much_o for_o proof_n of_o my_o major_n as_o for_o my_o minor_n it_o need_v no_o proof_n it_o be_v so_o clear_a answer_n arminian_o do_v answer_v thus_o to_o my_o major_n that_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n than_o god_n must_v justify_v and_o save_v all_o man_n for_o god_n may_v interpose_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n to_o go_v between_o christ_n death_n for_o judas_n and_o other_o and_o the_o act_n of_o god_n justification_n and_o so_o as_o though_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n yet_o god_n will_v not_o justify_v any_o of_o they_o unless_o they_o first_o believe_v reply_n 1_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o suppose_v that_o god_n will_v put_v in_o a_o condition_n after_o he_o have_v take_v a_o ransom_n and_o payment_n of_o a_o full_a price_n condition_n be_v always_o make_v before_o the_o price_n be_v pay_v but_o never_o after_o the_o price_n be_v pay_v and_o receive_v what_o man_n that_o sell_v house_n or_o land_n do_v put_v in_o a_o condition_n after_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o money_n wherefore_o since_o arminian_n will_v not_o have_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n to_o go_v before_o christ_n death_n it_o be_v too_o late_o to_o put_v in_o this_o condition_n after_o christ_n death_n for_o by_o his_o death_n the_o ransom_n and_o price_n be_v full_o pay_v and_o receive_v pay_v by_o christ_n and_o receive_v by_o god_n the_o father_n 2_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n and_o all_o man_n consider_v absolute_o as_o sinner_n and_o without_o faith_n as_o arminian_n hold_v then_o god_n the_o father_n must_v justify_v judas_n and_o all_o man_n consider_v absolute_o as_o sinner_n and_o without_o faith_n and_o so_o the_o condition_n of_o faith_n can_v be_v interpose_v for_o the_o buyer_n and_o seller_n if_o there_o be_v fair_a deal_n between_o they_o so_o as_o one_o do_v not_o overreach_v the_o other_o be_v both_o agree_v upon_o the_o same_o term_n so_o as_o if_o the_o buyer_n purchase_v and_o pay_v the_o price_n without_o any_o condition_n than_o the_o seller_n that_o take_v the_o price_n must_v give_v up_o the_o thing_n buy_v and_o pay_v for_o without_o any_o condition_n and_o so_o god_n can_v be_v say_v to_o put_v in_o the_o condition_n of_o faith_n between_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n 3_o since_o arminian_n hold_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n as_o sinner_n and_o without_o the_o condition_n of_o faith_n god_n can_v in_o justice_n require_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n before_o he_o will_v justify_v they_o for_o if_o he_o shall_v require_v it_o than_o many_o thousand_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v die_v without_o faith_n must_v be_v damn_v and_o suffer_v for_o their_o sin_n eternal_o in_o the_o next_o life_n now_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o in_o this_o life_n and_o suffer_v for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o room_n stead_n and_o place_n than_o god_n shall_v be_v unjust_a to_o punish_v these_o man_n for_o their_o sin_n in_o the_o next_o life_n though_o they_o die_v without_o faith_n for_o so_o he_o shall_v punish_v one_o sin_n twice_o once_o in_o christ_n their_o surety_n and_o once_o in_o themselves_o the_o principal_n since_o judas_n have_v suffer_v for_o his_o sin_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n in_o this_o life_n god_n shall_v be_v a_o unjust_a judge_n to_o punish_v judas_n for_o his_o sin_n in_o the_o next_o life_n though_o he_o have_v no_o faith_n for_o god_n have_v as_o they_o say_v punish_v judas_n his_o sin_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o he_o shall_v be_v unjust_a to_o punish_v he_o also_o in_o his_o own_o person_n it_o be_v extreme_a injustice_n to_o require_v a_o debt_n both_o of_o the_o surety_n and_o also_o of_o the_o principal_a wherefore_o judas_n his_o debt_n be_v pay_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n god_n can_v in_o justice_n require_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n of_o he_o so_o as_o for_o want_v of_o it_o to_o damn_v he_o and_o to_o cause_v he_o to_o suffer_v for_o his_o sin_n in_o the_o next_o life_n and_o so_o to_o pay_v his_o own_o debt_n in_o his_o own_o person_n for_o so_o god_n shall_v require_v one_o debt_n to_o be_v twice_o pay_v and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o the_o condition_n of_o faith_n can_v be_v interpose_v betwixt_o christ_n death_n and_o justification_n be_v that_o god_n in_o justice_n must_v justify_v and_o set_v free_a from_o the_o debt_n of_o punishment_n all_o those_o man_n who_o debt_n christ_n have_v pay_v whether_o they_o believe_v or_o not_o believe_v when_o god_n look_v upon_o judas_n as_o have_v suffer_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n he_o can_v but_o see_v his_o justice_n full_o satisfy_v and_o therefore_o can_v but_o justify_v and_o free_v he_o believe_v or_o not_o believe_v wherefore_o to_o interpose_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o make_v god_n a_o unjust_a judge_n 4_o i_o shall_v here_o add_v one_o thing_n which_o will_v both_o strengthen_v my_o major_n and_o also_o confute_v their_o answer_n they_o say_v christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v so_o general_o understand_v the_o text_n 2._o cor._n 5.15_o which_o say_v he_o die_v for_o all_o etc._n etc._n now_o all_o those_o who_o christ_n die_v for_o those_o he_o reconcile_v to_o god_n his_o father_n he_o be_v the_o reconciliation_n not_o for_o our_o sin_n only_o but_o also_o for_o the_o sin_n if_o the_o whole_a world_n 1._o john_n 2.2_o and_o all_o
be_v to_o punish_v twice_o over_o for_o the_o same_o sin_n which_o be_v a_o act_n of_o injustice_n in_o god_n now_o this_o must_v be_v so_o if_o you_o distinguish_v of_o impetration_n and_o application_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o they_o concur_v not_o in_o the_o same_o person_n but_o be_v divide_v so_o as_o impetration_n belong_v unto_o unbeliever_n but_o application_n belong_v not_o to_o they_o for_o if_o application_n and_o justification_n belong_v not_o to_o they_o than_o they_o must_v suffer_v punishment_n for_o their_o sin_n in_o the_o next_o life_n and_o so_o god_n shall_v be_v unjust_a for_o after_o he_o have_v punish_v unbeliever_n in_o christ_n their_o surety_n he_o shall_v punish_v they_o again_o in_o their_o own_o person_n so_o you_o see_v impetration_n and_o application_n be_v not_o to_o be_v distinguish_v in_o respect_n of_o person_n as_o if_o the_o one_o belong_v to_o some_o person_n but_o not_o the_o other_o unless_o you_o will_v make_v god_n to_o be_v a_o unjust_a judge_n 3_o i_o shall_v confute_v this_o distinction_n by_o a_o text_n of_o scripture_n understand_v it_o in_o the_o arminian_n sense_n see_v 2._o cor._n 5.15_o 19_o in_o verse_n 15._o speak_v of_o christ_n and_o his_o death_n it_o say_v one_o die_v for_o all_o etc._n etc._n here_o i_o understand_v the_o word_n all_o in_o the_o arminian_n sense_n and_o then_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o speak_v again_o of_o christ_n and_o his_o death_n say_v god_n be_v in_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n when_o he_o die_v for_o all_o and_o reconcile_v the_o world_n unto_o himself_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o so_o here_o you_o have_v the_o impetration_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o application_n of_o it_o in_o reconciliation_n and_o not_o imputation_n of_o sin_n now_o here_o application_n be_v make_v as_o large_a as_o impetration_n and_o to_o belong_v unto_o the_o same_o person_n without_o distinction_n or_o division_n for_o those_o all_o which_v christ_n die_v for_o be_v all_o of_o they_o reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o justify_v their_o sin_n not_o be_v impute_v unto_o they_o the_o same_o world_n which_o christ_n die_v for_o john_n 3.16_o the_o same_o be_v reconcile_v and_o have_v no_o sin_n impute_v to_o they_o so_o s._n paul_n do_v not_o allow_v of_o this_o arminian_n distinction_n and_o division_n of_o impetration_n and_o application_n in_o the_o arminian_n sense_n so_o as_o impetration_n shall_v be_v understand_v more_o large_o for_o person_n than_o application_n or_o as_o if_o impetration_n have_v be_v for_o all_o man_n and_o application_n but_o for_o some_o man_n 4_o this_o distinction_n be_v guilty_a yet_o of_o another_o absurdity_n for_o it_o make_v the_o mean_n of_o faith_n to_o be_v use_v altogether_o too_o late_o and_o so_o to_o become_v a_o unprofitable_a and_o frivolous_a mean_n for_o arminian_o make_v faith_n to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o avoid_v a_o evil_a after_o the_o evil_n be_v past_a they_o say_v christ_n by_o his_o impetration_n suffer_v the_o evil_a of_o death_n for_o unbeliever_n now_o in_o as_o much_o as_o christ_n suffer_v death_n and_o bear_v the_o evil_a of_o punishment_n of_o unbeliever_n for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o stead_n and_o room_n they_o themselves_o have_v suffer_v death_n and_o bear_v the_o evil_a of_o punishment_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n now_o after_o unbeliever_n have_v bear_v the_o evil_a of_o punishment_n it_o be_v too_o late_o to_o use_v faith_n as_o a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v application_n and_o justification_n and_o a_o freedom_n from_o the_o evil_n of_o punishment_n for_o thus_o they_o shall_v use_v a_o mean_n to_o avoid_v a_o evil_a after_o the_o evil_n be_v past_a and_o so_o the_o mean_n of_o faith_n be_v make_v unprofitable_a and_o frivolous_a wherefore_o shall_v i_o use_v any_o mean_n to_o avoid_v imprisonment_n when_o my_o surety_n have_v suffer_v imprisonment_n for_o i_o be_v not_o mean_n in_o this_o case_n frivolous_a if_o christ_n do_v impetrate_v and_o die_v for_o judas_n and_o in_o his_o stead_n than_o judas_n have_v suffer_v death_n by_o his_o surety_n christ_n what_o need_v then_o be_v there_o of_o faith_n in_o judas_n as_o a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v application_n and_o freedom_n from_o death_n after_o he_o have_v suffer_v death_n as_o by_o his_o surety_n this_o be_v as_o if_o a_o judge_n shall_v hang_v a_o man_n for_o his_o offence_n and_o then_o require_v he_o to_o use_v mean_n to_o free_v himself_o from_o death_n and_o so_o much_o for_o confutation_n of_o this_o distinction_n of_o impetration_n and_o application_n finis_fw-la
