of_o sin_n let_v we_o first_o hear_v what_o the_o spirit_n say_v who_o in_o the_o four_o to_o the_o ephesian_n the_o four_o and_o five_o verse_n tell_v we_o that_o when_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v come_v 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 that_o be_v his_o son_n be_v incarnate_a and_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o make_v so_o as_o to_o be_v oblige_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o it_o to_o redeem_v they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o we_o may_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o son_n and_o when_o we_o be_v tell_v in_o one_o place_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v for_o this_o very_a purpose_n that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o in_o another_o that_o he_o be_v manifest_a to_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o when_o to_o answer_v to_o and_o explain_v the_o mean_v of_o these_o place_n we_o be_v assure_v from_o other_o place_n that_o at_o least_o one_o way_n of_o his_o take_v away_o sin_n be_v by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o as_o in_o the_o twenty_o six_o verse_n of_o the_o nine_o to_o the_o hebrew_n and_o that_o he_o appear_v for_o that_o very_a purpose_n in_o the_o same_o place_n and_o when_o we_o add_v to_o all_o this_o what_o we_o find_v in_o the_o five_o verse_n of_o the_o follow_a chapter_n that_o god_n have_v prepare_v he_o a_o body_n and_o in_o the_o ten_o verse_n that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v our_o sin_n be_v put_v away_o through_o the_o offering_n of_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n once_o for_o all_o who_o as_o st._n peter_n speak_v his_o own_o self_n bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o body_n on_o a_o tree_n i_o say_v when_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v all_o along_o in_o the_o scripture_n express_o and_o categorical_o tell_v we_o that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v in_o his_o body_n shed_v his_o blood_n lose_v his_o humane_a life_n for_o our_o sin_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o sinner_n when_o it_o do_v in_o several_a place_n compare_v his_o death_n to_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n when_o it_o call_v he_o the_o lamb_n of_o god_n allude_v to_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n when_o it_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o like_a it_o do_v by_o these_o and_o such_o like_a expression_n as_o much_o as_o word_n can_v do_v it_o acquaint_v we_o at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o he_o suffer_v in_o his_o body_n and_o die_v to_o atone_v for_o and_o to_o expiate_v our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o all_o the_o uncouth_a and_o force_a interpretation_n of_o these_o and_o such_o like_a text_n which_o yet_o be_v a_o multitude_n that_o attempt_n to_o evacuate_v their_o plain_a mean_v may_v as_o soon_o persuade_v a_o honest_a and_o sincere_a man_n that_o the_o scripture_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n be_v a_o book_n full_a of_o collusion_n and_o prevarication_n as_o they_o may_v that_o jesus_n christ_n our_o saviour_n do_v not_o die_v to_o expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n and_o be_v i_o not_o assure_v of_o god_n providence_n i_o shall_v be_v apt_a to_o fear_v that_o the_o devil_n may_v in_o time_n so_o bring_v thing_n about_o that_o if_o he_o can_v upon_o pretence_n of_o reason_n wipe_v away_o that_o part_n of_o the_o bible_n that_o concern_v our_o saviour_n incarnation_n and_o the_o relation_n which_o that_o have_v to_o man_n redemption_n that_o he_o may_v at_o last_o raise_v his_o hope_n of_o blot_v out_o the_o whole_a christian_a religion_n for_o to_o tell_v we_o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v only_o such_o a_o man_n as_o other_o man_n be_v but_o only_o conceive_v in_o a_o different_a and_o therefore_o more_o wonderful_a manner_n to_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o die_v patient_o though_o wrongful_o only_o that_o he_o may_v give_v we_o a_o example_n of_o a_o exact_a patience_n and_o of_o a_o entire_a submission_n to_o god_n providence_n to_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v slay_v a_o sacrifice_n only_o to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o design_n in_o his_o death_n as_o to_o suffer_v for_o or_o to_o expiate_v our_o sin_n as_o it_o be_v a_o notorious_a contradiction_n to_o and_o not_o a_o exposition_n of_o the_o scripture_n so_o for_o that_o very_a reason_n it_o will_v appear_v to_o have_v a_o direct_a tendency_n towards_o the_o overthrow_v the_o grand_a design_n of_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n all_o which_o to_o they_o who_o shall_v scan_v the_o scripture_n exact_o be_v direct_v to_o and_o do_v centre_n in_o the_o saviour_n and_o that_o redemption_n which_o he_o purchase_v for_o mankind_n by_o his_o death_n and_o merit_n have_v therefore_o thus_o in_o short_a take_v notice_n of_o what_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o concern_v the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n by_o the_o sussering_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o have_v already_o make_v it_o out_o 1._o that_o no_o creature_n can_v by_o any_o mean_n expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n and_o 2._o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v god_n incarnate_a or_o god_n and_o man_n unite_v in_o one_o person_n we_o do_v in_o pursuit_n of_o our_o main_a design_n lay_v it_o down_o in_o the_o 3._o three_o place_n that_o the_o way_n and_o method_n of_o man_n salvation_n as_o it_o be_v express_o and_o frequent_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v by_o the_o suffering_n and_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v agreeable_a to_o right_a reason_n and_o exact_o congruous_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o truth_n and_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o justice_n and_o in_o order_n to_o our_o make_v this_o plain_a and_o clear_a we_o take_v notice_n 1._o that_o that_o law_n about_o the_o transgression_n of_o which_o and_o the_o release_n from_o the_o penalty_n of_o such_o transgression_n the_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v only_o concern_v be_v give_v to_o man._n for_o the_o scripture_n give_v we_o no_o account_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o other_o law_n but_o only_o of_o that_o law_n which_o god_n have_v prescribe_v to_o mankind_n and_o therefore_o though_o in_o the_o scripture_n we_o have_v several_a broad_a hint_n of_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o angel_n and_o though_o our_o reason_n tell_v we_o that_o that_o which_o put_v they_o under_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o be_v sin_n in_o the_o general_a yet_o we_o be_v therefore_o ignorant_a what_o their_o sin_n be_v because_o we_o be_v ignorant_a what_o that_o law_n be_v against_o which_o they_o sin_v 2._o we_o take_v notice_n that_o as_o that_o law_n about_o which_o alone_o the_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v concern_v be_v the_o law_n give_v by_o god_n to_o man_n so_o the_o gospel_n take_v no_o other_o or_o far_a notice_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o that_o law_n than_o as_o that_o law_n be_v break_v by_o man._n from_o whence_o we_o infer_v in_o the_o 3._o three_o place_n that_o that_o punishment_n which_o the_o law_n threaten_v against_o those_o who_o transgress_v it_o can_v only_o in_o justice_n belong_v to_o those_o to_o who_o the_o law_n be_v give_v and_o direct_v for_o they_o can_v never_o transgress_v a_o law_n who_o have_v no_o law_n assign_v they_o and_o they_o can_v never_o be_v just_o punish_v for_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n who_o can_v never_o transgress_v the_o law_n the_o law_n therefore_o about_o which_o alone_o a_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v concern_v be_v the_o law_n give_v to_o man_n and_o transgress_v by_o man_n man_n alone_o can_v just_o suffer_v the_o penalty_n of_o such_o transgression_n from_o whence_o we_o infer_v in_o the_o 4._o four_o place_n that_o if_o any_o penalty_n can_v ever_o just_o expiate_v that_o gild_n which_o be_v contract_v by_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n that_o penalty_n that_o must_v make_v such_o expiation_n must_v be_v a_o penalty_n lay_v upon_o man._n and_o therefore_o our_o common_a sense_n of_o justice_n will_v not_o allow_v we_o to_o think_v that_o either_o angel_n which_o be_v rank_v above_o mankind_n nor_o beast_n which_o be_v rank_v below_o they_o can_v by_o any_o suffering_n whatsoever_o expiate_v or_o atone_v for_o the_o breach_n of_o such_o law_n which_o be_v give_v by_o god_n to_o man_n do_v so_o far_o forth_o concern_v man_n alone_o and_o though_o we_o have_v before_o make_v it_o out_o that_o neither_o angel_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n nor_o brute_n beast_n on_o the_o other_o can_v expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n as_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v creature_n yet_o what_o we_o now_o say_v be_v that_o they_o can_v do_v it_o as_o they_o be_v different_a creature_n for_o it_o seem_v necessary_a and_o that_o
