of_o our_o sin_n lay_v on_o he_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n yet_o here_o be_v some_o improper_a speech_n and_o fallacy_n impropriety_n i_o say_v in_o the_o first_o word_n have_v on_o he_o our_o

and_o then_o be_v it_o when_o he_o be_v wound_v for_o our_o transgression_n isa_n 35.5_o and_o i_o remember_v not_o where_o the_o scripture_n ever_o speak_v christ_n to_o have_v our_o sin_n on_o he_o as_o distinct_a from_o his_o have_v the_o punishment_n of_o they_o on_o he_o therefore_o if_o he_o make_v they_o distinct_a he_o must_v free_v it_o from_o impropriety_n if_o they_o be_v the_o same_o then_o from_o a_o vain_a tautology_n the_o fallacy_n be_v in_o the_o next_o word_n in_o the_o room_n of_o we_o all_o if_o the_o author_n mean_v as_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n do_v and_o must_v in_o the_o author_n own_o principle_n from_o the_o change_n of_o person_n we_o all_o that_o be_v we_o all_o that_o be_v believer_n than_o it_o be_v true_a but_o nothing_o to_o his_o purpose_n but_o if_o by_o we_o all_o he_o will_v understand_v every_o son_n of_o adam_n it_o will_v be_v indeed_o pertinent_a to_o his_o business_n but_o false_a and_o destitute_a of_o probation_n he_o instance_v in_o isa_n 55.5_o gal._n 3.13_o 1_o cor._n 15.4_o 1_o pet._n 3.18_o rom._n 5.6_o which_o can_v clear_v that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o they_o under_o the_o notion_n of_o man_n and_o so_o in_o

and_o certain_o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o believer_n say_v he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o all_o can_v afford_v no_o such_o interpretation_n he_o attempt_v to_o prove_v it_o by_o 2_o cor._n 5.15_o for_o we_o thus_o judge_v that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o then_o be_v all_o dead_a and_o he_o die_v for_o all_o that_o they_o which_o live_v may_v not_o live_v to_o themselves_o etc._n etc._n the_o sense_n of_o which_o text_n if_o it_o favour_v he_o must_v run_v thus_o for_o we_o thus_o judge_v that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o every_o son_n of_o adam_n then_o be_v every_o son_n of_o adam_n dead_a and_o he_o die_v for_o every_o son_n of_o adam_n that_o they_o that_o live_v may_v not_o live_v to_o themselves_o but_o to_o he_o that_o have_v dye_v for_o they_o but_o i_o leave_v this_o to_o every_o intelligent_a reader_n to_o judge_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o herein_o set_v upon_o the_o rack_n this_o can_v be_v produce_v from_o the_o word_n themselves_o nor_o make_v well_o to_o accord_v with_o the_o forego_n or_o follow_v word_n but_o he_o love_v to_o give_v we_o word_n without_o any_o meaning_n but_o i_o desire_v the_o author_n or_o any_o reader_n to_o examine_v whether_o this_o be_v not_o the_o sense_n for_o we_o thus_o judge_v that_o if_o christ_n have_v dye_v for_o all_o that_o be_v in_o scripture_n phrase_n for_o all_o who_o he_o intend_v to_o bring_v to_o salvation_n all_o those_o who_o his_o father_n have_v for_o that_o end_n give_v he_o then_o have_v all_o die_v that_o be_v all_o those_o for_o who_o he_o die_v have_v dye_v to_o sin_n now_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o be_v the_o connection_n betwixt_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o in_o the_o next_o word_n and_o he_o die_v for_o all_o that_o those_o that_o live_v not_o the_o life_n of_o nature_n but_o of_o grace_n and_o faith_n may_v not_o live_v to_o themselves_o but_o to_o he_o that_o have_v dye_v and_o rise_v again_o now_o in_o this_o exposition_n these_o two_o thing_n be_v only_o to_o be_v prove_v then_o other_o thing_n will_v follow_v and_o they_o be_v these_o first_o that_o that_o phrase_n then_o be_v all_o dead_a be_v mean_v death_n not_o in_o but_o to_z sin_n second_o that_o the_o phrase_n that_o they_o which_o live_v be_v mean_v of_o a_o life_n of_o grace_n and_o faith_n not_o the_o life_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v clear_v the_o place_n will_v not_o only_o not_o help_v he_o but_o afford_v a_o good_a argument_n against_o he_o which_o particular_n i_o shall_v clear_v by_o these_o four_o particular_n 1._o the_o apostle_n scope_n in_o this_o present_a chapter_n that_o which_o he_o be_v about_o in_o this_o and_o the_o forego_n chapter_n be_v to_o show_v the_o believe_a corinthian_n that_o he_o with_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v neglect_v earthly_a thing_n and_o be_v heavenly_a mind_v and_o desire_v to_o approve_v themselves_o to_o god_n and_o for_o their_o good_a cap._n 4.1_o 2_o 8_o 9_o 10_o 16_o 17._o cap._n 5.5_o 6_o 7_o 8_o 9_o 11_o 13._o and_o also_o to_o press_v the_o same_o upon_o they_o ver._n 17._o now_o that_o those_o word_n ver._n 14_o 15_o contain_v a_o argument_n to_o prove_v and_o back_o this_o be_v evident_a and_o that_o to_o show_v a_o ground_n why_o they_o do_v so_o and_o the_o corinthian_n shall_v do_v so_o and_o the_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o we_o thus_o judge_v that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o then_o be_v all_o dead_a now_o it_o may_v be_v question_v whether_o this_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o cause_n or_o the_o effect_n of_o christ_n death_n that_o be_v whether_o he_o mean_v thus_o then_o be_v all_o dead_a in_o sin_n and_o so_o need_v to_o live_v to_o god_n or_o thus_o then_o have_v all_o die_v that_o be_v in_o christ_n that_o die_v in_o who_o the_o sin_n of_o believer_n be_v crucify_v as_o rom._n 6.6_o happy_o our_o author_n will_v say_v the_o first_o but_o i_o conceive_v that_o be_v not_o his_o argument_n in_o this_o text_n and_o that_o on_o these_o two_o ground_n 1._o because_o then_o the_o apostle_n argument_n to_o believer_n be_v not_o so_o opposite_a and_o full_a because_o there_o be_v no_o great_a engagement_n on_o they_o to_o live_v to_o god_n then_o upon_o every_o son_n of_o adam_n which_o agree_v not_o with_o the_o whole_a series_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n 2._o because_o then_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n shall_v have_v run_v
alive_a by_o christ_n be_v all_o those_o that_o be_v he_o and_o come_v from_o he_o as_o all_o that_o die_v in_o adam_n be_v all_o his_o and_o so_o they_o answer_v one_o the_o other_o so_o for_o the_o second_o text_n rom._n 5.18_o 19_o it_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o former_a and_o set_v out_o christ_n the_o root_n and_o fountain_n of_o righteousness_n and_o life_n as_o adam_n be_v of_o sin_n and_o death_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o conclusion_n ver._n 21._o that_o as_o sin_n have_v reign_v unto_o death_n so_o may_v grace_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o further_o it_o can_v in_o my_o judgement_n be_v carry_v indeed_o it_o say_v ver._n 18._o as_o by_o one_o judgement_n come_v on_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n so_o by_o one_o the_o free_a gift_n on_o all_o man_n to_o justification_n of_o life_n but_o this_o be_v not_o more_o pregnant_a than_o that_o of_o 1_o cor._n 15.21_o 22._o and_o thus_o i_o say_v to_o this_o also_o all_o adam_n son_n by_o his_o sin_n judgement_n come_v on_o they_o to_o condemnation_n and_o so_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o they_o that_o come_v from_o he_o to_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o this_o appear_v in_o ver._n 27._o where_o this_o latter_a all_o be_v supply_v by_o they_o which_o receive_v abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o this_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n if_o the_o author_n will_v have_v more_o from_o the_o text_n let_v he_o prove_v it_o and_o i_o shall_v receive_v it_o therefore_o neither_o of_o these_o place_n confirm_v this_o that_o christ_n stand_v

connexion_n of_o privilege_n which_o be_v not_o to_o set_v forth_o for_o how_o many_o christ_n have_v die_v or_o shall_v receive_v the_o fruit_n of_o his_o death_n but_o it_o be_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o privilege_n of_o those_o that_o have_v begin_v to_o receive_v the_o choice_a fruit_n of_o both_o his_o propitiation_n and_o advocation_n true_o the_o end_n and_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v neither_o of_o these_o but_o to_o show_v and_o make_v good_a his_o own_o word_n viz._n that_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o cross_n and_o affliction_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o the_o good_a of_o
