in the volume of the boook it is written of me to do thy will O God Concerning these Scriptures let us observe some things for clearing the point in hand to wit Christ's consent and agreement unto Proposals made to him by Jehovah And 1. It is manifest that the words are Christ's words for the Apostle makes Christ not David to be the speaker here Heb. 10.5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world he saith i. e. Christ saith for it is of Christ's sacrifice and his offering himself that the Apostle hath been speaking 2. 'T is as manifest that Christ speaketh these words to God to Jehovah therefore he saith Psal 40.8 and Heb. 10.7.9 O God and O my God 3. The words presuppose something spoken and propounded by God to Christ unto which these words are an answer there are four words in the Text which carry this plainly that there was something that he i. e. Jehovah desired and required as a pleasing satisfaction to him above all typical Sacrifices something which Christ calls his fathers will and his command thy will O God thy law O God to which he gave an answer then I said c. 4. That the thing concerning which he makes answer to God here was upon the matter 1. Some Proposal for the performance whereof God had prepared and fitted him by his Incarnation and assuming our nature A body thou hast prepared me or fitted me and by his taking on a will that might bow to the will of God Mine ears thou hast opened 2. 'T is an answer to the Proposal of a business unto which Christ was called which was the fathers will and command to him to do thy will and thy law O God 3. 'T is an answer and return to God concerning something that was concluded and agreed betwixt God and Christ before-hand and therefore is said to be written in the volume of thy book 4. 'T is something which however it was contracted and recorded before yet was not to be fulfilled until the due time when he cometh into the world not till the time of his Incarnation 5. 'T is something that divine Justice required for a satisfaction and which no Sacrifices could amount unto which is held forth in the opposition of this command to the negation of all satisfaction by other Sacrifices Sacrifice thou hast not required but c. and this was no other but the obedience of his own Son and the giving his Soul an offering and Sacrifice for sin to satisfie the Justice of God Isa 53.10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him he hath put him to grief when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin he shall see his seed he shall prolong his days and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hands 5. Consider the answer that Christ gives here how it amounts unto a plenary consent and agreement unto the will and proposal of his father unto him which is a Covenant of Redemption or Suretiship i. e. that he will undertake and do the work of our Redemption according to his fathers will 1. I say Christ's answer bears a consent a willing consent Lo I come Christ sists himself before God in readiness to do his Father's will to be our Surety and Saviour 't is an expression not unlike these of Isaiah and Samuel whereby they expressed their free consent and readiness to obey the call of God Isa 6.8 Then said I here am I send me in the Original it is behold me or lo me which is equivolent to Lo I come or I sist my self ready to obey thy command to do thy will to run thy errand 1 Sam. 3.10 Speak Lord for thy servant heareth i. e. doth sist himself ready to obey 2. Christ's answer bears a submissive humble consent Mine ear hast thou opened or bored there seems to be an allusion to a Ceremony that was used toward the Servant that would not have his liberty but loved his Master so that he would not go out free from his Service when he might according to Law in the seventh year whereof see Deut. 15.12 to 17. Exod. 21.6 So the opening or boring of the ear is not only a sign of hearkening and obedience as the Phrase is used concerning Christ Isa 50.5 The Lord God hath opened mine ear and I was not rebellious neither turned away back But it notes also his taking on the form of a Servant such as had their ears bored in token of their submission to serve when they might have been free In place of this Phrase the Apostle says A body thou hast prepared me giving a perspicuous interpretation of the opening of the ear that it related to Christ's Incarnation and the principal end thereof which was that he might be found in the form of a Servant to obey and do the will of his father as one who by his own consent was nailed and pinned to his Service in the work of Redemption Phil. 2.7 8 But made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men And being found in fashion as a man he humbled himself and became obedient unto death even the death of the Cross 3. Christ's answer bears a consent given in contemplation of a satisfaction to divine Justice and therefore he mentions the Law of God and the things that God required and offers himself to undergo these for this he did propose to himself that offended divine Justice might have an honourable satisfaction and that the Law might have obedience in him Gal. 4.4 5 But when the fulness of the time was come God sent forth his Son made of a woman made under the law To redeem them that were under the law that we might receive the Adoption of sons Zech. 13.7 Awake O sword against my shepherd and against the man that is my fellow saith the Lord of hosts smite the shepherd Gal. 3.13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the Law being made a curse for us 4. Christ's answer bears a compleat and plenary consent which is every way apted unto the Proposals made to him for he offers himself to fulfil the Law to which he voluntarily subjected himself in the exact rigour thereof in every thing that is written in the bookk of the law Gal. 3.10 he offers himself to perform the utmost degree of obedience to the Will of God to do thy will O God yea to do not only according to what is written in the book of the Law but according to the indenture and contract betwixt God and him to which I understand the volume of the book here mentioned chiefly to relate supposing the agreement betwixt God and Christ about the work of man's Redemption and all his undertakings to be written as it were in a Book or Roll in that sense that the Scripture speaks of a book of life and the Lambs book of life and the writings therein Rev. 13.8 15.8 21.27 5.

servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved of Israel I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles that thou mayst be my salvation unto the end of the earth And under this part of the agreement I comprehend 1. The designation of the person who shall be the redeemer that it shall be the second person the Son of God only not the Father nor the Spirit Isa 59.20 And the Redeemer shall come to Zion and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob saith the Lord. Act. 3.26 Vnto you first God having raised up his Son sent him to bless you in turning away every one of you from his Iniquities 1 Joh. 4.9 God sent his only begotten Son unto the world that we might live through him 2. The constituting of that Person Surety and Mediator to take that place upon him which the work of our Redemption did require Heb. 7.22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament 3. The consent and agreement of Christ to both these to be the person that shall work this work and to be substitute in this place for doing the work Heb. 10.7 Then said I lo I come in the volume of the book it is written of me to do thy will O God thus did the Creditor and the Cautioner strike hands together 3. By this Covenant it was agreed betwixt Jehovah and Christ What should be the Redeemer's work or what should be the price that he should pay and the satisfaction that he should make to divine Justice for the sins of the elect that were given to him under this I take in 1. The concluding betwixt the parties that Christ shall take upon him our Law-place and room and in order to that his taking our nature upon him that Justice might reach him in our stead and place Gal. 4.4 God sent forth his Son made of a woman made under the Law 2. That Christ as our Surety should dye and lay down his life for us that he should pay for us the whole sum that was owing even all that the Law and Justice could exact of the broken man Joh. 10.18 No man taketh is from me but I lay it down of my self Rom. 8.3 God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin condemned sin in the flesh Gal. 3.13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the Law being made a curse for us this is at length held forth Isa 53.5 6 7 10 12. 3. That the payment and satisfaction that should be made to Justice by our Surety in our nature and in our room should be accepted as our payment and as a condign price for our right to Heaven Heb. 9.15 And for this cause he is the Mediator of the new Testament that by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first Testament they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance 4. By this Covenant it was agreed betwixt Jehovah and Christ what should be the term of paying this price and making this satisfaction to Justice A time and term-day is condescended upon such as seemed fit to infinite wisdom to appoint Gal. 4.2 4 until the time appointed of the Father but when the fulness of the time was come Heb. 9.10 11 until the time of reformation But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come Dan. 9.26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off but not for himself I say though the price was agreed upon from eternity yet God in his wisdom thought fit to put off the time of actual paying this price till the Redeemer that should come out of Zion should be long waited for Luk. 2.38 and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem but though the payment was suspended till the fulness of time yet neither Christ's acting as Mediator nor the force of the blood of this Covenant but in contemplation of the price to be payed at the time appointed by the Father he was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world Rev. 13.8 5. By this Covenant it was agreed betwixt Jehovah and Christ how the Redemption wrought by him should be applyed to his elect people And under this I comprehend 1. The eternal appointment of the Gospel-Ordinances especially the Covenant of Grace and Reconciliation as means by divine appointment fitted to give the knowledge of the Redeemer and of the Redemption and Salvation wrought by him Luk 1.77 78 79 To give knowledg of Salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins Through the tender mercy of our God whereby the day-spring from an high hath visited us To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death to guide our feet in the way of peace 2. The conclusion that the Gospel should be preached to all Nations that for the Elect's sake it might come unto all the Societies of men in the world among whom there are any of the redeemed ones Psal 110.2 The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion rule thou in the midst of thine enemies 3. The appointment of the times and seasons and of the particular Instruments that should carry the Gospel to the bounds of each elect Soul's habitation that it might meet with them Act. 17.26 27 And hath determined the times before appointed and the bounds of their habitation That they should seek the Lord if haply they might feel after him and find him though he be not far from every one of us According as we see it brought to pass in the execution so it was concluded from eternity Act. 8.29 and 2.6 17. and 9.15 and 18.9 10. 4. The pouring out of the Spirit to make the Gospel-ordinances and means of Salvation effectual to the Redeemed people this also was comprehended under this Article of the agreement that this should be procured by him for his elect people Joh. 16.7 8 Nevertheless I tell you the truth it is expedient for you that I go away for if I go not away the Comforter will not come unto you but if I depart I will send him unto you And when he is come he will reprove the world of fin and of righteousness and of judgment Psal 110.3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning 6. By this Covenant it was agreed betwixt Jehovah and Christ what should be the reward and wages that he should have for this great Service for working the work of our Redemption his reward and wages in the general Notation thereof was ask and have it was a grant of whatsoever he would ask of God for so great a work and service his recompence was at his own asking Psal 2.8 Ask of me and I shall give thee c. and according to his own heart full content and satisfaction Isa 53.11 He

is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe for there is no difference 5. There is not only a commutation but a community of Writs betwixt Christ and the Believer for one Writ and Promise-wreats God the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and the God and Father of the Believer this Covenant-relation to him and us is by the great promises of the Covenant Heb. 1.5 I will be to him a Father and he shall be to me a Son Psal 89.26 29 He shall cry unto me Thou art my Father my God and the rock of my salvation His seed also will I make to endure for ever One Writ makes Christ the first Heir and Son of the promise and the Believer a younger Brother coming in under Christ the first Heir Psal 89.27 Also I will make him my first-born Gal. 3.26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus Rom. 8.17 And if children then heirs heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ One Writ and letter of acquittance dischargeth both Christ and the Believer from the curse and condemnation of the Law Rom. 8.3 4 God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin condemned sin the flesh That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit O how comfortable and strengthening is this that Christ and we are in one Writ that our Covenant interests and relations to God and all his and our concernments are thus bound up in one Writ if his title to God to Heaven to promises be good and valid ours is so too if he acquit and defend his own Charters he doth the same for ours blessed are they who are united to him in this New Covenant-relation 6. By the Covenant of Suretiship Christ is constituted the grand Instrument and Actor of all things that appertain to his peoples Redemption and Salvation and that not only of eternal Salvation and Redemption which he alone brought unto his people Heb. 5.9 And being made perfect he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him Heb. 9.15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new Testament that by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament they who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance Luk. 1.68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for he hath visited and redeemed his people And of such part of that Redemption as is wrought within time Heb. 7.25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him But of whatsoever Salvation and other administrations are good for them in this life And therefore we find that Christ was the grand Instrument and had an active hand in the deliverance of his people from all afflictions and oppressions in all ages Isa 63.5 9 And I looked and there was none to help and I wondred that there was none to uphold therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me and my fury it upheld me In all their afflictions he was afflicted and the Angel of his presence saved them and in his love and in his pity he redeemed them and he bare them and carried them all the days of old It was Christ the Angel of the Covenant Mal. 3.1 who delivered Jacob from all evil Gen. 48.16 It was he who brought the people out of Egypt and said to Moses And now come I mill send thee unto Egypt He it was who appeared unto Moses in the Bush and made him a ruler and a deliverer Act. 7.32 34 35. It was he that brought the people out of Babylon and built the temple Zech. 6.12 13 Behold the man whose Name is the Branch and he shall grow up out of his place and he shall build the temple of the Lord. Even he shall build the temple of the Lord and he shall bear the glory c. If the temporal Salvation of the Church and people of God lay upon men how cold a comfort were that Isa 59.16 And he saw that there was no man and wondred that there was no intercessor Psal 142.4 I looked on my right hand and beheld and there was no man that would know me refuge failed me and there was no man cared for my soul And if the working of that part of our Salvation which the Lord hath made the Believers Duty and hath commanded him to do for his own Soul if that lay upon us alone how heavy would it prove Phil. 2.12 Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling But O how warm how comfortable is it what a support to faith that Christ is by his Suretiship engaged to work all manner of Salvation for his people and to become the grand instrument and chief actor thereof Isa 63.13 I that speak in righteousness mighty to save I have trodden the wine-press alone and of the people there was none with me Phil. 2.13 For it is God that worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure Heb. 12.2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith 8. By the Covenant of Suretiship all the hard conditions lay upon Christ all that the Law requires of Man condition-ways he was made under the law Gal. 4.4 that we might not be under the law but under grace Rom. 6.14 O how sweet and comfortable is it to the poor weak Believer who finds himself so very insignificant a creature at all Covenant-conditions to know that by Christs Suretiship 1. He did take upon him all conditions which the law requires of man to abide in every thing that it requires the Believer is yet under the commands of the Law but I say not under the conditions thereof for it is not to him a Covenant Christ also did bear the curse of the Law but that which the Believer suffers even of the things that were sometimes written in the book of the Law are now written in the book of Covenant-mercies 2. Christ did take upon him all the conditions that are works and nothing rests to the believer condition-wise but that which is grace Rom. 4.16 Therefore it is of faith that it might be by grace It s true the Believer yet worketh and is created unto good works Phil. 2.10 But all working condition-ways was upon Christ by his Suretiship 3. The principal and most significant condition of Redemption Salvation and all Covenant-blessings and priviledges promised to us is Christs doing his part of the Covenant of Suretiship his laying down his life this was not only a condition of the reward that was to be given to Christ personal but even of all the promises that were made to him concerning his redeemed seed Isa 53.10 11 And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand He shall see of the travel of his Soul and shall be satisfied by his knowledg shall my righteous servant

ascribed to his intercession which he is now performing in heaven and therefore he must intercede in Heaven as Surety of the better Testament Heb. 7.22 to 25. with Rom. 5.10 and Rom. 8.34 Who is he that condemneth it is Christ that died yea rather that is risen again who is even at the right hand of God who also maketh intercession for us 3. Consider that unless he were a Surety in Heaven and acted therein that Covenant-relation by his intercession all his other actings as Surety of the Covenant would be to little purpose for our behoof for it is this part of his Suretiship that maketh his satisfaction to the Law effectual for the good of the Elect this is it which putteth life in the death of him who died in our stead and room and without this the blood of the Surety had been shed in vain For this is the very application of it and sprinkling the blood of the Covenant upon us Heb. 9.19 20 24 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law he took the blood of Calves and Goats with water and scarlet wool and Hysop and sprinkled both the book and all the people saying this is the blood of the Teestament which God hath enjoined unto you For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands which are the figures of the true but into heaven it self now to appear in the presence of God for us Heb. 7.22 25. By so much was Jesus made Surety of a better Testament Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them 1 Joh. 2.1 2 My little children these things write I unto you that ye sin not and if any man sin we have an advocate with the father Jesus Christ the righteous and he is the propitiation for our sins 4. Consider that as his soul and his life was at the stake and was pawned for that part of his Suretiship that was to be performed on earth to wit the paying of a price to Justice so his honour lies yet at the stake and in pawn for that part of his engagement which is to be performed in heaven by his intercession so that as it behoved him to have lien in prison for ever and the soul to have been left in the grave unless he had payed his Debt and made satisfaction to Justice his Soul being in our souls stead as a Surety so his honour I say lieth still at the stake for all his peoples compleat Salvation insomuch that Heaven cannot hold him if he bring not them there he shall not have the glory of a perfected Saviour and Surety if he perform not his engagement to save them to the utmost yea he must quit heaven if he bring not his people thither for whom he undertook See Joh. 6.57 As the living father hath sent me and I live by the father so he that eateth me even he shall live by me Joh. 17.1 4 12 24 Glorifie thy son that thy son also may glorifie thee I have glorified thee on the earth I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do While I was with them in the world I kept them in thy name those that thou gavest me I have kept and none of them is lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled Father I will that they also whom thou hast given me be with me where I am that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world Heb. 2.10 For it became him for whom are all things and by whom are all things in bringing many sons unto glory to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings He speaks for his brethren as Judah did for little Benjamin Gen. 43.9 3. Christ is a Surety in our stead and in our behalf 1. I say in most things which Christ did as a Surety of the Covenant he did them in our stead and room he did them as a person representing us and we did them in him by vertue of that communion that is betwixt the Surety and the Debtor when he died he died in our stead and we died in him there we paid the Debt when he arose and ascended he rose in our stead and we rose and ascended in him there we had a discharge and liberation when he had it c. Rom. 6.6 8 Knowing this that our old man is crucified with him that the body of sin might be destroyed that henceforth we should not serve sin Now if we be dead with Christ we believe that we shall also live with him 1 Cor. 15.22 For as in Adam all die even so in Christ shall all be made alive Eph. 2.5 6 Even when we were dead in sins he hath quickened us together with Christ by grace ye are saved and hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus 2. Yet there are some things which Christ the Surety performed wholly for us indeed and on our behalf but he cannot be said to perform them in our stead or to act our part in them that is to act these things as that which we should have done such was his incarnation and taking of our nature upon him and the taking of our Law-place upon him which were acts of Christ the Surety of the Covenant and unto which he had voluntarily engaged himself by his Covenant of Suretiship with God See Mr. Tho. Goodwin Christ set forth Sect. 5. c. 4. pag. 149. Gal. 4.4 But when the fulness of the time was come God sent forth his Son made of a woman made under the law Heb. 10.5 7 Wherefore when he cometh into the world he saith Sacrifice and offering thou wouldst not but a body hast thou prepared me then said I Lo I come in the volume of the book it is written of me to do thy will O God Yet he cannot be said properly to have done these things in our stead though he did them on our behalf and wholly for us for these were the very foundation of all that he acted in our stead and opened the way to his acting as our Surety in our stead by these acts he put himself in our stead that he might act our part being found in our nature state and condition Rom. 8.3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin condemned sin in the flesh Phil. 2.6 7 Who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God But made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men Such also is his intercession in heaven for though he intercede as a Surety in Heaven and on our behalf yet he doth it

the word but how for salvation that is in them but the believer finds something in them better than Salvation Joh. 6.68 Then Simon Peter answered him Lord to whom shall we go thou hast the words of eternal life Psal 73.25 26 Whom have I in heaven but thee and there in none upon earth that I desire besides thee My heart and my flesh faileth but God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever 4. Since God giveth Christ for all the Covenant be you perswaded to take him for all and to make use of him for all 1 Cor. 1.30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus who of God is made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption 1. To fulfil all the promises of the Covenant to you for in him they are yea and in him they are all Amen 2 Cor. 1.20 2. To fulfil and perform the condition of the Covenant in you to determine your wills to believe Joh. 6.37 All that the father giveth me shall come to me Song 1.4 Draw me we will run after thee Joh. 12.32 And I if I be lifted up from the earth will draw all men unto me 3. To perform the duties in you which the Covenant requireth of you Phil. 4.13 Joh. 15.5 Eph 2.10 Vse 6. For comfort and encouragement to believers 1. Comfort your selves in the bargain which you have made upon this ground Christ is in the Covenant yea he is given for a Covenant of the people and therefore all shall be well and all shall be sure and firm Isa 22.23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place and he shall be for a glorious throne to his fathers house Zech. 10.4 Out of him came forth the corner out of him the nails Isa 3.10 Say ye to the righteous that it shall be well with him for they shall eat the fruit of their doings Comfort your selves 1. Against your being short of other men in worldly-injoyments Christ is given you for a Covenant but not unto them O wonder at it and be comforted with him who said Lord how is it that thou wilt manifest thy self to us and not unto the world You can own Christ they cannot Psal 67.6 And God even our own God shall bless us Psal 73.26 My flesh and my heart faileth but God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever 2. Comfort your selves against all snares dangers tentations and storms that can blow against you in your way to heaven Christ is in the Covenant and that shall be your safety as the disciples were safe at sea against greatest tempests because Christ was in the ship with them Mat. 8.13 to 28. Consider he is imbarked with you and shall bring you to land 1 Joh. 4.4 Ye are of God little children and have overcome them because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world 3. Comfort your selves against all your wants and weaknesses and all the miseries of your present condition Christ is given for a Covenant of the people and though you be foolish he is wise 1 Cor. 1.30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus who of God is made unto us wisdom Though you be weak he is strong Psal 89.19 I have laid help upon one that is mighty Mat. 12.29 Or else how can one enter into a strong mans house and spoil his goods except he first bind the strong man and then he will spoil his house Though you be faithless he is faithful 2 Tim. 2.13 If we believe not yet he abideth faithful he cannot deny himself Though you be nothing Christ is all Col. 3.11 Whatsoever is wanting in you is abounding in him and if you abuse not the grace of Christ by turning it into wantonness it is all one if it be betwixt you it s as good and much better it be in him than in you for if he be given to you all comes with him 1 Cor. 1.30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus who of God is made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption 2. Believers in Christ you who have received him who was given for a Covenant of the people take courage and boldness to God-ward in all that you have to do with him For 1. Having received Christ for a Covenant of the people you may pray and deal confidently with God as though Christ did beseech God by you Isa 45.11 Thus saith the Lord the holy one of Israel and his maker Ask me of things to come concerning my Sons and concerning the work of my hands command ye me 2. You have gotten Christ and therefore nothing shall be denied you Rom. 8.32 He that spared not his own Son but delivered him up for us all how shall he not with him also freely give us all things 3. You have received more than you know of Joh. 14.4 5 20 And whither I go ye know and the way you know Thomas saith unto him Lord we know not whither thou goest and how can we know the way at that day ye shall know that I am in my father and you in me and I in you You have all the Covenant if you have him 4. You have received more than you want a greater thing than ever you shall be capable to need or want hereafter for how great soever your wants be you cannot conceive them to be so great as Christ who is given to you Phil. 4.19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus 2 Cor. 9.8 And God is able to make all grace abound towards you that ye always having all sufficiency in all things may abound to every good work FINIS Books Printed for and are to be sold by Tho.
