from_o socinianism_n according_a to_o the_o sense_n in_o which_o they_o be_v understand_v 2._o such_o a_o change_n of_o person_n as_o suppose_v one_o to_o be_v substitute_v in_o the_o place_n of_o

propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n for_o upon_o this_o they_o ask_v how_o the_o act_n of_o one_o person_n can_v be_v so_o beneficial_a to_o other_o and_o to_o that_o we_o answer_v that_o although_o one_o man_n act_n can_v become_v another_o yet_o if_o by_o consent_n both_o of_o the_o father_n and_o son_n he_o become_v our_o mediator_n and_o suffer_v in_o our_o stead_n in_o order_n to_o our_o

own_o sin_n god_n be_v please_v to_o accept_v of_o his_o suffer_v instead_o of_o we_o and_o so_o by_o virtue_n of_o that_o propitiation_n we_o hope_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n according_a to_o the_o term_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o therein_o consist_v the_o true_a controversy_n between_o the_o socinian_o and_o we_o viz._n whether_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v as_o a_o punishment_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o as_o a_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o they_o o●_n only_o as_o a_o act_n of_o dominion_n over_o a_o

sin_n commit_v by_o such_o person_n if_o this_o guilt_n be_v translate_v christ_n must_v become_v the_o very_a person_n who_o commit_v the_o sin_n and_o so_o he_o must_v be_v look_v on_o not_o only_o as_o a_o actual_a sinner_n but_o as_o the_o person_n that_o commit_v all_o the_o sin_n of_o those_o for_o who_o he_o die_v which_o come_v so_o near_o to_o horrid_a blasphemy_n that_o i_o wonder_v person_n that_o bear_v any_o reverence_n to_o our_o bless_a saviour_n do_v not_o abhor_v ●he_v very_a thought_n of_o it_o 2._o of_o legal_a gild_n which_o lie_v in_o the_o obligation_n to_o punishment_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o sanction_n of_o the_o divine_a law_n now_o this_o gild_n imply_v two_o thing_n 1._o the_o desert_n of_o punishment_n which_o follow_v personnal_n guilt_n and_o can_v be_v transfer_v by_o a_o change_n of_o person_n for_o no_o man_n can_v cease_v to_o deserve_v punishment_n for_o his_o own_o fault_n nor_o deserve_v that_o another_o shall_v be_v punish_v for_o they_o 2._o the_o obligation_n to_o undergo_v the_o deserve_a punishment_n but_o because_o the_o execution_n of_o punishment_n depend_v both_o on_o the_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n of_o the_o legislatour_n therefore_o here_o a_o change_n of_o person_n may_v intervene_v and_o by_o the_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n of_o god_n a_o mediator_n may_v be_v accept_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o himself_o determine_v and_o upon_o the_o acceptante_fw-la of_o his_o sacrifice_n the_o offender_n may_v be_v pardon_v and_o receive_v into_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n on_o such_o term_n as_o he_o have_v declare_v in_o the_o gospel_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o guilt_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v charge_v upon_o christ_n as_o our_o mediator_n who_o be_v to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o our_o sin_n so_o as_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o suffering_n we_o may_v not_o only_o hope_v to_o escape_v the_o just_a punishment_n of_o our_o offence_n but_o to_o be_v admit_v into_o the_o privilege_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n but_o the_o reporter_n out_o of_o a_o certain_a manuscript_n give_v another_o account_n of_o commutation_n of_o person_n viz._n that_o commutation_n in_o a_o legal_a sense_n be_v the_o same_o with_o a_o proper_a surrogation_n where_o the_o surety_n put_v on_o the_o person_n and_o stand_v in_o the_o quality_n state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o debtor_n and_o lie_v under_o the_o same_o obligation_n to_o answer_v for_o he_o but_o this_o i_o have_v show_v long_o since_o to_o be_v a_o very_a wrong_a notion_n of_o christ_n satisfaction_n and_o which_o in_o effect_n give_v up_o the_o cause_n to_o the_o socinian_o for_o if_o sin_n be_v consider_v as_o debt_n god_n may_v free_o forgive_v they_o without_o disparagement_n to_o his_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n without_o any_o satisfaction_n and_o the_o right_n of_o punishment_n than_o depend_v on_o god●_n absolute_a dominion_n and_o satisfaction_n must_v be_v by_o way_n of_o compensation_n of_o whiah_o i_o have_v treat_v at_o large_a ch._n 1._o §_o 2._o ul●_n but_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v at_o the_o learned_a author_n of_o the_o m._n s._n that_o he_o do_v at_o the_o same_o time_n assert_v our_o sin_n to_o be_v consider_v as_o debt_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o vindictive_a justice_n for_o what_o vindictive_a justice_n belong_v to_o a_o creditor_n may_v not_o a_o creditor_n part_n with_o his_o own_o right_n and_o forgive_v what_o and_o who_o he_o please_v without_o any_o violation_n of_o justice_n i_o can_v hardly_o think_v that_o those_o who_o write_v so_o rude_o and_o inconsistent_o ever_o penetrate_v into_o these_o matter_n in_o their_o own_o thought_n but_o only_o take_v up_o with_o a_o set_v of_o phrase_n and_o common_a expression_n among_o those_o they_o converse_v with_o which_o they_o look_v on_o as_o the_o standard_n and_o measure_n of_o truth_n about_o these_o matter_n but_o he_o find_v fault_n with_o some_o man_n who_o hold_v that_o christ_n only_o suffer_v in_o the_o pe●son_n of_o a_o mediator_n and_o not_o in_o the_o person_n of_o sinner_n what_o be_v the_o mean_v
