for_o the_o question_n now_o i_o have_v to_o ask_v you_o mr._n report_n it_o be_v this_o that_o grant_v you_o to_o be_v in_o the_o right_n as_o to_o the_o phrase_n change_v of_o person_n which_o these_o two_o chief_a learned_a man_n bishop_n stillingfleet_n for_o a_o conformist_n and_o dr._n owen_n for_o a_o nonconformist_n do_v use_n and_o warrant_v i_o must_v demand_v only_o what_o be_v your_o sense_n of_o it_o you_o must_v tell_v i_o such_o a_o sense_n of_o this_o change_n as_o that_o the_o sinner_n must_v come_v in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n as_o well_o as_o christ_n in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o sinner_n if_o you_o have_v think_v on_o such_o a_o sense_n before_o you_o write_v as_o to_o be_v fix_v in_o it_o you_o be_v a_o man_n of_o judgement_n and_o if_o you_o can_v maintain_v it_o when_o fix_v you_o be_v a_o man_n of_o may_v if_o you_o can_v fetch_v that_o sense_n out_o of_o stillingfleet_n that_o most_o learned_a bishop_n be_v alive_a and_o will_v make_v it_o good_a and_o it_o be_v like_a to_o be_v receive_v if_o you_o fetch_v it_o out_o of_o owen_n that_o excellent_a doctor_n be_v dead_a and_o you_o must_v make_v it_o good_a yourself_o and_o i_o will_v have_v you_o take_v heed_n of_o that_o for_o you_o see_v eight_o argument_n you_o must_v encounter_v which_o if_o they_o be_v enlarge_v and_o draw_v out_o in_o battle_n their_o strength_n will_v be_v great_a i_o must_v also_o yet_o tell_v you_o that_o in_o my_o apprehension_n very_o grotius_n whatsoever_o you_o imagine_v do_v verge_n to_o mr._n rebuke_v rather_o than_o you_o because_o in_o his_o show_v that_o the_o preposition_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d when_o apply_v to_o person_n do_v import_v this_o commutation_n and_o instance_n in_o archelaus_n come_v in_o the_o room_n of_o herod_n i_o can_v believe_v that_o grotius_n ever_o once_o think_v of_o herod_n come_v in_o the_o room_n of_o archelaus_n so_o that_o the_o point_n between_o you_o must_v come_v to_o this_o that_o whereas_o you_o both_o be_v agree_v that_o archelaus_n come_v in_o the_o room_n of_o herod_n you_o be_v to_o show_v in_o what_o sense_n herod_n come_v also_o in_o archelaus_n room_n or_o you_o be_v go_v in_o short_a mr._n rebuke_n grant_v you_o such_o a_o commutation_n of_o person_n as_o the_o come_n of_o one_o in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o other_o but_o not_o such_o as_o the_o come_n of_o both_o in_o the_o room_n of_o one_o another_o to_o be_v more_o clear_a in_o respect_n to_o mr._n rebuke_v and_o mr._n williams_n in_o the_o notion_n before_o i_o will_v take_v liberty_n to_o express_v myself_o in_o my_o own_o term_n there_o be_v a_o threefold_a person_n a_o natural_a person_n a_o qualitative_a person_n and_o a_o representative_a person_n the_o natural_a person_n be_v that_o we_o call_v in_o

real_a representative_a now_o there_o be_v the_o question_n whether_o christ_n take_v on_o he_o our_o legal_a or_o civil_a person_n so_o that_o we_o be_v to_o be_v look_v on_o as_o have_v do_v and_o

to_o be_v the_o common_a opinion_n of_o the_o protestant_n and_o which_o you_o have_v receive_v but_o this_o i_o deny_v this_o mr._n baxter_n deny_v whether_o mr._n williams_n do_v or_o no_o consult_v his_o book_n my_o reason_n for_o the_o denial_n be_v those_o eight_o then_n already_o say_v unto_o which_o more_o may_v be_v add_v they_o do_v heinous_o err_v say_v mr._n baxter_n and_o subvert_v the_o gospel_n who_o say_v that_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v so_o impute_v to_o we_o as_o that_o god_n repute_v christ_n to_o have_v be_v perfect_o holy_a and_o suffer_v though_o not_o in_o our_o

you_o have_v cite_v former_o some_o passage_n and_o may_v again_o out_o of_o dr._n bates_n against_o mr._n williams_n but_o i_o pray_v consider_v how_o they_o be_v more_o opposite_a to_o mr._n

he_o dupliciter_fw-la these_o either_o revera_n or_o henericaliter_fw-la i_o must_v answer_v so_o here_o that_o if_o those_o passage_n or_o the_o like_a of_o dr._n bates_n be_v take_v henericaltter_n as_o the_o word_n of_o that_o belove_a dr._n they_o must_v pass_v because_o he_o have_v say_v they_o but_o if_o they_o be_v take_v revera_n the_o expression_n be_v elegant_a and_o not_o heed_v the_o sense_n of_o they_o must_v be_v right_o understand_v according_a to_o mr._n baxter_n as_o for_o the_o term_n surety_n which_o you_o far_o stand_v upon_o there_o be_v many_o sort_n of_o surety_n mr._n baxter_n tell_v you_o and_o what_o kind_n a_o one_o christ_n be_v which_o you_o know_v well_o enough_o cath._n theol._n part_n ii_o p._n 66._o so_o that_o you_o must_v not_o take_v the_o word_n and_o use_v it_o in_o so_o gross_a a_o sense_n as_o it_o have_v be_v common_o as_o if_o christ_n and_o we_o be_v in_o the_o same_o bond_n and_o the_o debt_n be_v pay_v by_o he_o the_o whole_a obligation_n be_v to_o be_v present_o cancel_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o have_v pay_v it_o ourselves_o such_o a_o surety_n in_o effect_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o to_o be_v our_o legal_a person_n and_o a_o
law_n and_o so_o to_o be_v in_o he_o legal_o righteous_a and_o justify_v by_o his_o righteousness_n formaliter_fw-la according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o work_n then_o must_v his_o righteousness_n be_v we_o so_o that_o in_o a_o legal_a sense_n we_o must_v be_v as_o righteous_a as_o he_o or_o god_n must_v look_v on_o we_o in_o he_o as_o righteous_a as_o he_o and_o then_o can_v god_n see_v no_o sin_n in_o the_o believer_n and_o the_o believer_n have_v no_o need_n of_o repentance_n or_o other_o righteousness_n with_o the_o like_a inference_n which_o we_o utter_o condemn_v however_o by_o the_o most_o pious_a of_o they_o mitigate_v in_o the_o antinomian_a the_o consequence_n real_o be_v not_o to_o be_v deny_v unless_o by_o outface_v it_o with_o number_n or_o shift_v mr._n anthony_n burgess_n acknowledge_v if_o we_o be_v formal_o justify_v by_o christ_n righteousness_n then_o be_v we_o as_o righteous_a as_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o will_v have_v his_o righteousness_n to_o be_v the_o

when_o it_o become_v necessary_a to_o recede_v from_o this_o doctrine_n it_o be_v fit_a we_o find_v out_o another_o that_o will_v hold_v better_o together_o if_o in_o good_a earnest_n you_o will_v maintain_v this_o doctrine_n of_o commutation_n so_o that_o you_o understand_v no_o less_o by_o it_o than_o this_o that_o christ_n have_v obey_v and_o suffer_v in_o our_o person_n that_o the_o law_n be_v obey_v and_o satisfy_v by_o we_o in_o he_o or_o we_o legal_o righteous_a in_o he_o which_o be_v all_o one_o i_o argue_v far_o as_o in_o my_o pacification_n and_o who_o shall_v answer_v it_o if_o this_o be_v so_o then_o shall_v we_o not_o ourselves_o obey_v at_o all_o then_o shall_v we_o not_o suffer_v at_o all_o for_o he_o that_o have_v perfect_o obey_v can_v be_v punish_v for_o nothing_o then_o shall_v we_o need_v no_o forgiveness_n then_o will_v christ_n suffer_v for_o we_o have_v obey_v be_v needless_a then_o must_v he_o be_v look_v on_o by_o god_n as_o a_o sinner_n then_o must_v the_o culpa_fw-la as_o well_o as_o the_o poena_n be_v impute_v to_o he_o then_o can_v not_o christ_n be_v our_o mediator_n because_o he_o be_v look_v on_o as_o the_o offend_a party_n and_o a_o mediator_n be_v a_o three_o party_n between_o the_o offender_n and_o the_o offend_a in_o which_o person_n he_o obey_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o then_o last_o shall_v impunity_n and_o life_n be_v due_a

they_o be_v according_a to_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v subvert_v therefore_o by_o this_o opinion_n i_o pray_v then_o mr._n report_n will_v you_o sit_v down_o a_o little_a with_o i_o and_o consider_v what_o you_o will_v have_v by_o this_o commutation_n of_o person_n and_o see_v if_o it_o will_v hold_v there_o be_v two_o point_n according_a to_o you_o depend_v upon_o it_o which_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n in_o the_o christian_a religion_n to_o wit_n christ_n satisfaction_n and_o our_o justification_n but_o here_o it_o be_v that_o you_o be_v out_o with_o the_o brethren_n and_o the_o excellent_a dr._n owen_n who_o all_o of_o you_o do_v build_v this_o commutation_n of_o person_n upon_o that_o union_n with_o christ_n which_o we_o call_v the_o mystical_a union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o elect_a believer_n by_o virtue_n whereof_o and_o not_o otherwise_o christ_n righteousness_n you_o count_v become_v they_o for_o their_o justification_n but_o sir_n this_o can_v be_v for_o if_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v we_o as_o thus_o one_o with_o he_o then_o must_v it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o righteousness_n and_o we_o righteous_a as_o he_o as_o before_o in_o god_n eye_n or_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v all_o one_o his_o righteousness_n be_v impute_v in_o se_fw-la and_o we_o justify_v by_o the_o law_n with_o his_o righteousness_n as_o i_o have_v say_v as_o the_o form_n itself_o or_o formal_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n that_o be_v observe_v as_o you_o will_v yet_o see_v more_o and_o those_o argument_n contain_v in_o the_o eight_o then_o be_v unanswerable_a it_o be_v your_o mistake_n therefore_o here_o with_o other_o to_o suppose_v such_o a_o commutation_n as_o be_v build_v upon_o this_o mystical_a union_n when_o there_o be_v none_o but_o what_o be_v found_v on_o his_o hypostatical_a union_n which_o concern_v all_o mankind_n as_o well_o as_o the_o elect_n and_o answer_v this_o full_a sense_n of_o grotius_n mention_v before_o of_o which_o point_n in_o particular_a i_o will_v forbear_v say_v more_o because_o i_o have_v endeavour_v to_o make_v this_o out_o in_o a_o chapter_n i_o have_v in_o my_o peaceable_a

and_o there_o be_v some_o epitome_n of_o it_o one_o thing_n yet_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o regard_n to_o those_o two_o great_a point_n mention_v that_o however_o commodious_a and_o proper_a you_o think_v these_o phrase_n be_v for_o the_o make_v out_o the_o doctrine_n of_o satisfaction_n if_o you_o use_v they_o in_o no_o other_o sense_n than_o that_o of_o grotius_n in_o regard_n to_o

protestant_n in_o regard_n to_o antinomianism_n they_o be_v not_o equal_o applicable_a i_o must_v say_v to_o both_o for_o it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o christ_n take_v on_o he_o our_o nature_n and_o so_o put_v his_o natural_a person_n in_o our_o room_n in_o suffer_v for_o we_o to_o make_v out_o the_o one_o but_o he_o must_v be_v mystical_o put_v into_o our_o and_o we_o into_o his_o legal_a person_n to_o make_v out_o the_o other_o before_o i_o leave_v this_o phrase_n there_o be_v two_o question_n i_o must_v ask_v one_o of_o you_o and_o the_o other_o of_o mr._n rebuke_v or_o else_o your_o two_o altercation_n about_o it_o will_v signify_v nothing_o the_o question_n i_o will_v ask_v mr._n rebuke_n be_v this_o whether_o he_o do_v design_o intend_v a_o difference_n between_o a_o change_n of_o person_n and_o a_o change_n of_o person_n which_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v do_v by_o some_o express_a word_n and_o his_o meaning_n then_o must_v be_v that_o though_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o

the_o room_n of_o christ_n person_n or_o sustain_v his_o person_n or_o take_v on_o he_o his_o person_n and_o consequent_o that_o there_o be_v a_o change_n of_o person_n but_o not_o of_o person_n between_o they_o if_o this_o be_v his_o sense_n and_o not_o speak_v out_o of_o a_o present_a sagacity_n or_o wit_n but_o upon_o a_o deliberate_a resolution_n it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n i_o have_v touch_v upon_o this_o in_o my_o pacif._n and_o in_o a_o half-sheet_n print_v by_o itself_o but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v require_v of_o mr._n rebuke_v to_o show_v some_o author_n of_o note_n for_o such_o a_o distinction_n which_o will_v fix_v it_o but_o he_o will_v find_v none_o i_o doubt_v only_a mr._n williams_n and_o here_o be_v the_o mischief_n of_o that_o mr._n williams_n deny_v that_o there_o be_v a_o change_n of_o person_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o elect_n do_v account_v himself_o wrong_v to_o have_v that_o interpret_v no_o change_n of_o person_n so_o that_o he_o hold_v a_o
