be_v not_o reckon_v as_o do_v by_o we_o but_o because_o we_o do_v some_o thing_n like_o they_o our_o die_v to_o sin_n be_v a_o conformity_n to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o our_o walk_n in_o newness_n of_o life_n be_v our_o conformity_n to_o his_o resurrection_n and_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n be_v very_o powerful_a to_o engage_v we_o to_o die_v to_o sin_n and_o to_o rise_v into_o a_o new_a life_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n of_o these_o phrase_n not_o that_o christ_n do_v all_o in_o our_o stead_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v say_v to_o do_v it_o too_o but_o for_o a_o quite_o different_a reason_n because_o we_o must_v do_v something_o like_o it_o express_v the_o power_n and_o image_n of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n in_o our_o life_n to_o this_o purpose_n also_o he_o cite_v that_o 184._o text_n in_o gal._n 4._o 4_o 5._o god_n send_v forth_o his_o son_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n make_v under_o the_o law_n to_o

under_o the_o law_n he_o tell_v we_o be_v mean_v be_v dispose_v of_o in_o such_o a_o condition_n that_o he_o must_v yield_v subjection_n and_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n well_o suppose_v this_o and_o this_o be_v all_o to_o redeem_v we_o and_o therefore_o our_o redemption_n be_v by_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n impute_v to_o we_o fair_o argue_v but_o can_v his_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n contribute_v no_o otherway_n to_o our_o redemption_n but_o by_o be_v reckon_v as_o do_v by_o we_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v this_o we_o be_v not_o in_o the_o text_n it_o be_v not_o to_o redeem_v we_o but_o to_o redeem_v they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o be_v the_o jew_n who_o be_v in_o bondage_n under_o the_o moysaicall_a law_n from_o which_o christ_n redeem_v they_o by_o abrogate_a that_o law_n and_o introduce_v a_o better_a covenant_n the_o adoption_n of_o son_n for_o in_o this_o epistle_n nay_o in_o this_o chapter_n the_o law_n be_v call_v a_o state_n of_o servant_n and_o of_o a_o heir_n under_o age_n but_o the_o gospel_n be_v the_o adoption_n of_o son_n put_v we_o into_o such_o a_o free_a and_o manly_a state_n as_o that_o of_o a_o heir_n at_o age_n and_o therefore_o be_v call_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n rom._n 8._o 15._o so_o that_o the_o meaning_n of_o this_o text_n be_v this_o that_o god_n have_v now_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v call_v redeem_v they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n in_o a_o state_n of_o servitude_n and_o bondage_n and_o have_v establish_v a_o better_a covenant_n in_o the_o room_n of_o it_o which_o as_o much_o excel_v the_o law_n as_o the_o adoption_n of_o son_n do_v the_o state_n of_o servant_n and_o this_o god_n bring_v to_o pass_v by_o send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n make_v under_o the_o law_n for_o the_o understanding_n of_o which_o word_n we_o must_v consider_v what_o influence_n christ_n appear_v in_o the_o world_n have_v on_o the_o abrogation_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o be_v that_o he_o accomplish_v all_o the_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o law_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o when_o all_o these_o type_n be_v fulfil_v they_o grow_v out_o of_o date_n so_o that_o his_o be_v make_v under_o the_o law_n most_o probable_o signify_v his_o be_v make_v such_o a_o person_n as_o shall_v exact_o answer_v all_o the_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o put_v a_o end_n to_o it_o as_o of_o no_o further_o use_v thus_o the_o temple_n be_v god_n house_n wherein_o he_o dwell_v but_o now_o the_o shecinah_n or_o divine_a glory_n rest_v on_o christ_n and_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o godhead_n dwell_v in_o he_o bodily_a so_o that_o now_o there_o be_v no_o long_o any_o need_n of_o a_o material_a temple_n as_o a_o pledge_n of_o god_n peculiar_a presence_n among_o they_o the_o priest_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o law_n be_v type_n of_o christ_n and_o when_o that_o great_a high_a priest_n come_v and_o

be_v redeem_v by_o christ_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o redeem_v from_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n under_o which_o they_o never_o be_v several_a other_o place_n he_o allege_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n but_o i_o have_v either_o already_o consider_v they_o or_o shall_v do_v in_o what_o follow_v but_o what_o i_o have_v now_o discourse_v be_v enough_o to_o satisfy_v any_o impartial_a inquirer_n how_o

answer_v but_o i_o have_v a_o great_a and_o better_a design_n viz._n to_o explain_v and_o confirm_v the_o true_a notion_n of_o religion_n in_o opposition_n to_o such_o mistake_n and_o therefore_o have_v show_v you_o that_o there_o be_v no_o foundation_n in_o reason_n or_o scripture_n to_o fancy_v such_o a_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o believer_n whether_o we_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o conjugal_a relation_n or_o legal_a union_n as_o he_o be_v our_o surety_n or_o mediator_n as_o shall_v entitle_v believer_n to_o the_o personal_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n lest_o any_o man_n shall_v suspect_v that_o the_o design_n of_o all_o this_o be_v to_o lessen_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o to_o disparage_v the_o merit_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o god_n forbid_v any_o christian_n shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o i_o shall_v second_o examine_v what_o influence_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o life_n have_v upon_o our_o acceptance_n with_o god_n and_o all_o that_o i_o can_v find_v in_o scripture_n about_o this_o be_v that_o to_o this_o we_o owe_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o god_n be_v well_o please_v with_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n life_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o death_n for_o his_o sake_n enter_v into_o a_o new_a covenant_n with_o mankind_n wherein_o he_o promise_v pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o eternal_a life_n to_o those_o who_o belief_n and_o obey_v the_o gospel_n this_o be_v very_o plain_a with_o reference_n to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n hence_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n heb._n 10_o 29._o and_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o great_a shepherd_n and_o bishop_n of_o soul_n through_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n heb._n 13._o 20._o and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v which_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n heb._n 12._o 24._o which_o be_v a_o

20_o 21._o for_o when_o moses_n have_v speak_v every_o precept_n to_o all_o the_o people_n according_a to_o the_o law_n when_o he_o have_v declare_v the_o term_n of_o this_o covenant_n to_o they_o he_o take_v the_o blood_n of_o calf_n and_o goat_n with_o water_n and_o scarlet_a wool_n and_o hyssop_n and_o sprinkle_v both_o the_o book_n and_o all_o the_o people_n say_v this_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o testament_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v to_o you_o thus_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o sprinkle_v because_o by_o his_o blood_n god_n do_v seal_v and_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n as_o the_o sprinkle_n the_o blood_n of_o beast_n do_v confirm_v the_o moysaicall_a covenant_n hence_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n rom._n 5._o 9_o that_o be_v by_o the_o gospel_n covenant_n which_o be_v confirm_v and_o ratify_v with_o his_o blood_n and_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o propitiation_n through_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n that_o be_v by_o a_o belief_n of_o his_o gospel_n rom._n 3._o 25._o hence_o it_o be_v also_o that_o the_o scripture_n use_v these_o phrase_n promiscuous_o to_o be_v justify_v by_o

if_o sin_n shall_v make_v they_o no_o saint_n will_v not_o that_o endanger_v the_o dissolve_a of_o this_o union_n for_o as_o the_o same_o author_n sweet_o reason_n if_o any_o branch_n be_v pluck_v
