A47601	A medium betwixt two extremes wherein it is proved that the whole first Adam was condemned and the whole second Adam justified : being a sermon lately preached on Rom. 8:1 and now published to prevent the further controversy (in one main point) about justification : to which are added reflections on some passages in Mr. Clark's new book called Scripture-Justification / by Benjamin Keach.

but_o the_o notion_n of_o mr._n clark_n and_o his_o abettor_n certain_o tend_v to_o raze_v and_o root_v out_o that_o ancient_a doctrine_n which_o the_o apostle_n preach_v and_o those_o worthy_a man_n labour_v to_o restore_v about_o justification_n do_v bellarmine_n ever_o deny_v that_o their_o good_a work_n and_o inherent_a holiness_n which_o they_o make_v the_o matter_n of_o their_o justification_n before_o god_n be_v perform_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n this_o man_n only_o exclude_v legal_a work_n from_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v in_o our_o justification_n but_o include_v all_o gospel-works_a and_o sincere_a obedience_n he_o assert_v these_o kind_n of_o work_n and_o free_a ●●ace_n be_v consistent_a and_o because_o not_o derogatory_n in_o point_n of_o salvation_n therefore_o not_o in_o justification_n he_o say_v that_o we_o must_v allow_v of_o gospel-works_a or_o holiness_n to_o concur_v to_o justification_n and_o this_o doctrine_n will_v appear_v etc._n etc._n answ_n yet_o he_o will_v feign_v insinuate_v that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o he_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o same_o with_o that_o of_o the_o old_a receive_v doctrine_n of_o our_o divine_n papist_n who_o teach_v say_v he_o that_o the_o sola_fw-la fides_fw-la solum_fw-la yet_o not_o fides_fw-la sola_fw-la i.e._n solitaria_fw-la justificat_fw-la though_o faith_n alone_o yet_o not_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v alone_o do_v justify_v what_o be_v the_o purport_n of_o this_o why_o because_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n elect_n by_o which_o alone_o we_o apprehend_v or_o receive_v the_o object_n jesus_n christ_n by_o who_o we_o be_v justify_v be_v attend_v with_o good_a fruit_n as_o sanctification_n and_o holiness_n by_o which_o it_o be_v know_v from_o a_o false_a and_o dead_a faith_n therefore_o faith_n good_a work_n and_o holiness_n be_v the_o matter_n or_o that_o which_o do_v justify_v we_o before_o god_n or_o because_o faith_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o own_o excellent_a nature_n do_v purify_v and_o sanctify_v we_o therefore_o god_n have_v institute_v and_o ordain_v faith_n and_o inherent_a holiness_n to_o justify_v we_o and_o because_o inherent_a holiness_n and_o sanctification_n tend_v to_o make_v we_o meet_v for_o heaven_n therefore_o it_o be_v our_o only_a title_n for_o heaven_n be_v it_o not_o say_v that_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n without_o work_n and_o justify_v he_o that_o work_v not_o how_o then_o do_v work_n concur_v with_o or_o be_v include_v or_o join_v with_o that_o righteousness_n that_o be_v our_o justification_n before_o god_n take_v a_o passage_n of_o reverend_a perkins_n 210._o viz._n it_o be_v object_v that_o true_a faith_n be_v never_o alone_o i_o answer_v say_v he_o thus_o faith_n be_v never_o alone_o in_o the_o person_n justify_v nor_o in_o godly_a conversation_n but_o be_v join_v with_o all_o other_o virtue_n yet_o in_o the_o act_n and_o office_n of_o justification_n it_o be_v alone_o the_o eye_n in_o the_o body_n be_v not_o alone_o be_v join_v with_o all_o other_o part_n hand_n foot_n etc._n etc._n nevertheless_o the_o eye_n in_o see_v be_v alone_o for_o no_o part_n of_o the_o body_n see_v but_o the_o eye_n he_o show_v that_o faith_n alone_o be_v the_o eye_n which_o see_v the_o object_n jesus_n christ_n and_o apprehend_v he_o and_o his_o righteousness_n who_o righteousness_n only_o be_v the_o material_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n before_o god_n see_v the_o assembly_n confession_n etc._n etc._n all_o who_o god_n effectual_o call_v he_o free_o justify_v not_o by_o infuse_v righteousness_n into_o they_o but_o by_o pardon_v their_o sin_n and_o by_o account_v and_o accept_v their_o person_n as_o righteous_a not_o for_o any_o thing_n wrought_v in_o they_o or_o do_v by_o they_o but_o for_o christ_n sake_n alone_o not_o by_o impute_v faith_n itself_o the_o act_n of_o believe_v nor_o any_o other_o evangelical_n obedience_n as_o their_o

they_o have_v not_o of_o themselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n this_o agree_v with_o that_o doctrine_n paul_n preach_v to_o the_o roman_n and_o galatian_n etc._n etc._n but_o from_o this_o doctrine_n mr._n clark_n and_o many_o more_o be_v depart_v what_o say_v the_o apostle_n 1.8_o if_o we_o or_o a_o angel_n from_o heaven_n preach_v any_o other_o gospel_n unto_o you_o than_o what_o you_o have_v receive_v let_v he_o be_v accurse_v paul_n as_o mr._n perkins_n note_n see_v the_o galatian_n to_o be_v corrupt_v in_o the_o point_n of_o justification_n false_a teacher_n be_v get_v among_o they_o who_o preach_v justification_n by_o christ_n and_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n they_o do_v not_o exclude_v christ_n merit_n but_o bring_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n with_o christ_n in_o justification_n before_o god_n as_o some_o now_o do_v the_o work_n of_o a_o new_a law_n i.e._n gospel_n law_n but_o let_v they_o tremble_v where_o be_v paul_n doctrine_n 3.27_o for_o it_o be_v palpable_a this_o new_a doctrine_n exclude_v not_o boast_v or_o ground_n of_o boast_v i_o argue_v thus_o viz._n that_o law_n do_v not_o exclude_v boast_v that_o command_v work_n of_o obedience_n as_o the_o condition_n of_o acceptance_n and_o justification_n but_o this_o new_a law_n these_o man_n speak_v of_o command_v work_n of_o obedience_n as_o the_o condition_n of_o our_o acceptance_n and_o justification_n ergo_fw-la it_o do_v not_o exclude_v boast_v 43._o but_o mr._n clark_n intimate_v that_o work_v of_o the_o law_n perform_v by_o our_o own_o strength_n or_o without_o special_a assistance_n only_o admit_v of_o boast_v answ_n the_o papist_n say_v that_o all_o their_o work_n and_o inherent_a righteousness_n be_v perform_v by_o god_n grace_n or_o special_a assistance_n yet_o how_o do_v they_o boast_v let_v the_o creature_n perform_v good_a work_n etc._n etc._n by_o what_o assistance_n he_o will_v yet_o the_o work_n be_v his_o work_n and_o if_o such_o by_o which_o he_o be_v justify_v they_o admit_v of_o boast_v reader_n the_o righteousness_n this_o man_n contend_v for_o by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v be_v not_o the_o righteousness_n of_o one_o but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o many_o i.e._n every_o man_n be_v own_o faith_n and_o sincere_a obedience_n contrary_a to_o what_o paul_n affirm_v rom._n 5.17_o 18_o 19_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v mr._n clark_n 100_o obey_v the_o law_n in_o man_n stead_n answ_n then_o say_v i_o he_o have_v not_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n for_o we_o nor_o answer_v all_o the_o demand_n of_o the_o law_n nor_o do_v god_n holy_a nature_n and_o justice_n require_v a_o perfect_a righteousness_n to_o our_o justification_n in_o his_o sight_n be_v not_o perfect_a righteousness_n part_n of_o that_o debt_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n if_o so_o who_o pay_v the_o debt_n for_o we_o the_o penalty_n be_v but_o one_o part_n of_o our_o debt_n then_o also_o it_o seem_v the_o law_n of_o perfect_a righteousness_n do_v not_o result_v from_o the_o purity_n and_o holiness_n of_o god_n but_o only_o from_o the_o sovereignty_n of_o his_o will_n not_o from_o the_o rectitude_n of_o his_o nature_n moreover_o why_o then_o do_v not_o god_n give_v this_o mild_a law_n of_o faith_n and_o sincere_a obedience_n at_o first_o and_o so_o have_v save_v himself_o of_o buy_v it_o so_o dear_a i.e._n with_o the_o price_n of_o the_o
