sight_n 4_o from_o the_o say_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o god_n positive_a law_n in_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o sin-sacrifice_n it_o follow_v that_o as_o by_o one_o man_n disobedience_n to_o god_n m●er_v positive_a law_n in_o eat_v 19_o rom._n 5._o 19_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n the_o many_o as_o well_o as_o the_o reprobate_n be_v make_v sinner_n by_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o his_o disobedience_n so_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o namely_o of_o christ_n to_o a_o mere_a positive_a law_n in_o undertake_v to_o combat_v with_o satan_n and_o to_o continue_v obedient_a to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o at_o last_o to_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o sacrifice_n the_o many_o be_v make_v righteous_a rom._n 5._o 19_o for_o by_o this_o obedience_n of_o he_o to_o the_o say_v positive_a law_n and_o covenant_n he_o have_v merit_v not_o only_o their_o conversion_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o also_o the_o father_n reconciliation_n for_o their_o justification_n by_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n to_o they_o so_o then_o the_o comparison_n that_o be_v make_v between_o the_o first_o adam_n and_o the_o second_o lie_v in_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n for_o as_o the_o first_o adam_n merit_v the_o death_n of_o sin_n to_o all_o his_o posterity_n by_o his_o disobedience_n to_o god_n positive_a law_n and_o covenant_n so_o the_o second_o adam_n merit_v the_o life_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o of_o god_n forgiveness_n by_o his_o obedience_n to_o god_n positive_a law_n in_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o sacrifice_n 5_o hence_o it_o also_o follow_v that_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o namely_o not_o in_o rom._n 5._o 18_o 19_o and_o according_o mr._n wotton_n mr._n forbs_n and_o divers_a other_o eminent_a divine_n do_v expound_v ver_fw-la 18_o and_o 19_o to_o relate_v only_o to_o his_o positive_a righteousness_n in_o his_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o not_o to_o his_o moral_a obedience_n no_o otherwise_o but_o as_o it_o make_v he_o to_o be_v a_o lamb_n without_o spot_n or_o blemish_n fit_a for_o sacrifice_n and_o therefore_o mr._n nortons_n proof_n of_o heresy_n from_o rom._n 5._o 19_o in_o p_o 268._o do_v fail_v he_o as_o well_o as_o all_o his_o other_o proof_n 6_o my_o former_a exposition_n of_o god_n righteousness_n to_o be_v his_o reconciliation_n in_o not_o impute_v sin_n be_v further_a evident_a by_o the_o 25._o rom._n 3._o 25._o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o terminis_fw-la in_o rom._n 3._o 25._o to_o declare_v his_o righteousness_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o word_n i_o will_v propound_v these_o three_o question_n and_o answer_n first_o who_o righteousness_n do_v the_o apostle_n say_v be_v here_o declare_v but_o god_n the_o father_n second_o wherein_o be_v god_n the_o father_n righteousness_n declare_v but_o by_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a three_o how_o else_o do_v god_n declare_v this_o righteousness_n of_o he_o by_o remission_n but_o by_o set_v forth_o christ_n to_o be_v his_o propitiatory_a or_o his_o mercy-seat_n through_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o this_o text_n do_v in_o terminis_fw-la make_v god_n righte●eousness_n consist_v in_o remission_n of_o sin_n as_o i_o have_v expound_v 2_o cor._n 5._o 21._o 7_o daniel_n do_v make_v god_n righteousness_n whereby_o he_o make_v sinner_n righteous_a to_o consist_v in_o his_o reconciliation_n by_o not_o impute_v sin_n in_o dan._n 9_o 24._o he_o say_v that_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n be_v to_o 24._o dan_n 9_o 24._o finish_v trespass_n offering_n and_o to_o end_v sin_n offering_n and_o to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o iniquity_n and_o to_o bring_v in_o a_o everlasting_a righteousness_n mark_v this_o his_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n be_v to_o procure_v god_n reconciliation_n for_o iniquity_n and_o this_o reconciliation_n he_o call_v a_o everlasting_a righteousness_n to_o sinner_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o daniel_n do_v make_v god_n reconciliation_n to_o be_v a_o everlasting_a righteousness_n to_o believe_a sinner_n as_o i_o have_v expound_v 2_o cor._n 5_o 21._o 8_o david_n do_v also_o confirm_v this_o exposition_n of_o god_n righteousness_n in_o psal_n 51._o 14._o deliver_v i_o from_o blood_n guiltiness_n o_o god_n 14._o psal_n 51._o 14._o than_o my_o tongue_n shall_v sing_v aloud_o of_o thy_o righteousness_n first_o how_o else_o do_v he_o mean_v that_o god_n shall_v deliver_v he_o from_o his_o bloodguiltiness_n but_o by_o his_o reconciliation_n in_o not_o impute_v that_o sin_n to_o his_o condemnation_n according_a to_o that_o desire_n and_o prayer_n in_o deut._n 21._o 8._o second_o what_o righteousness_n of_o god_n do_v he_o else_o mean_a that_o his_o tongue_n shall_v sing_v aloud_o of_o but_o god_n atonement_n in_o not_o impute_v his_o bloodguiltiness_n to_o he_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o christ_n sin-sacrifice_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o exposition_n give_v of_o god_n righteousness_n in_o 2_o cor._n 5._o 21._o and_o so_o consequent_o of_o the_o same_o term_n in_o rom._n 3._o 21_o 22_o 25_o 26._o and_o in_o rom._n 10._o 3._o and_o in_o phil._n 3._o 9_o be_v confirm_v and_o strengthen_v by_o a_o eight-fold_n cord_n which_o i_o believe_v mr._n norton_n will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o break_v but_o mr._n norton_n in_o p._n 260._o stumble_v at_o the_o dialogue_n because_o it_o follow_v mr._n wotton_n in_o make_v justification_n and_o adoption_n to_o be_v the_o two_o part_n of_o god_n atonement_n or_o reconciliation_n and_o at_o last_o in_o p._n 162._o he_o open_v himself_o thus_o but_o whether_o justification_n precise_o consider_v be_v a_o part_n of_o or_o a_o necessary_a antecedent_n or_o mean_n of_o reconciliation_n it_o be_v free_o leave_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o reader_n but_o say_v he_o the_o leiden_fw-mi divine_v say_v it_o be_v rather_o a_o consequent_a and_o effect_n of_o justification_n and_o then_o he_o conclude_v that_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n may_v as_o well_o bear_v a_o interpretation_n agreeable_a hereunto_o as_o any_o other_o thus_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o world_n to_o himself_o how_o by_o not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n to_o they_o so_o as_o the_o not_o imputation_n of_o sin_n say_v he_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o antecedent_n and_o mean_n rather_o than_o a_o part_n of_o atonement_n or_o reconciliation_n reply_v 1._o it_o be_v now_o apparent_a why_o mr._n norton_n do_v stumble_v at_o the_o dialogue_n for_o give_v two_o part_n to_o reconciliation_n according_a to_o mr._n wotton_n it_o be_v to_o introduce_v his_o conjecture_n quite_o contrary_a to_o mr._n wotton_n namely_o that_o god_n non-imputation_n of_o sin_n be_v a_o antecedent_n and_o mean_n rather_o than_o a_o part_n of_o atonement_n or_o reconciliation_n but_o because_o he_o express_v himself_o to_o be_v somewhat_o uncertain_a in_o his_o notion_n in_o this_o point_n therefore_o he_o can_v be_v think_v to_o be_v a_o fit_a judge_n to_o censure_v the_o dialogue_n nor_o to_o determine_v this_o controversy_n but_o the_o scripture_n be_v most_o plain_a in_o this_o point_n if_o they_o be_v not_o intricate_v by_o such_o uncertain_a conjecture_n 1_o the_o scripture_n speak_v plain_o that_o when_o the_o bullock_n for_o sin_n be_v offer_v by_o the_o priest_n to_o make_v atonement_n for_o sin_n of_o ignorance_n than_o the_o promise_v annex_v say_v it_o shall_v be_v forgive_v he_o levit_fw-la 4._o 20._o any_o man_n from_o hence_o may_v see_v plain_o that_o god_n forgiveness_n be_v not_o a_o antecedent_n but_o a_o true_a part_n of_o his_o atonement_n if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o whole_a the_o like_a be_v say_v of_o the_o ruler_n sin_n in_o v._o 26._o and_o the_o like_a be_v say_v of_o the_o sin_n of_o any_o of_o the_o people_n in_o ver_fw-la 31_o 35._o namely_o that_o when_o god_n atonement_n be_v procure_v by_o their_o say_a sin-sacrifice_n then_o thereupon_o their_o sin_n be_v say_v to_o be_v forgive_v they_o 2_o the_o burnt-offering_n and_o three_o the_o trespass-offering_n be_v ordain_v to_o procure_v god_n gracious_a forgiveness_n as_o a_o part_n of_o his_o atonement_n as_o in_o levit._n 5._o 10_o 13_o 16_o 18._o and_o in_o leu._n 6._o 7._o and_o in_o leu._n 19_o 22._o and_o in_o numb_a 15._o 25_o 26_o 28._o in_o all_o these_o place_n god_n promise_v of_o his_o forgiveness_n by_o his_o atonement_n do_v open_o proclaim_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o all_o israel_n and_o in_o the_o ear_n of_o all_o other_o that_o have_v ear_n to_o hear_v that_o when_o god_n atonement_n be_v obtain_v by_o sacrifice_n then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o that_o person_n be_v actual_o justify_v either_o he_o be_v ceremonial_o justify_v as_o a_o person_n fit_a to_o stand_v before_o god_n holy_a presence_n in_o his_o sanctuary_n
the_o righteousness_n give_v we_o be_v not_o the_o righteousness_n whereby_o christ_n person_n be_v righteous_a for_o accident_n perish_v be_v remove_v from_o their_o subject_n but_o it_o be_v a_o righteousness_n merit_v by_o christ_n satisfaction_n and_o obedience_n for_o we_o and_o that_o can_v be_v no_o other_o say_v i_o but_o a_o passive_a righteousness_n by_o god_n merciful_a atonement_n in_o not_o impute_v sin_n as_o i_o have_v exemplify_v it_o from_o the_o type_n of_o god_n positive_a statute_n and_o ordinance_n 3._o i_o have_v already_o show_v and_o i_o think_v it_o needful_a to_o repeat_v it_o again_o first_o that_o it_o be_v christ_n satisfactory_a righteousness_n to_o perform_v the_o covenant_n on_o his_o part_n by_o his_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o second_o that_o it_o be_v god_n righteousness_n to_o perform_v the_o covenant_n on_o his_o part_n which_o be_v to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o sinner_n by_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n to_o they_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v in_o christ_n by_o faith_n the_o meritorious_a righteousness_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n combat_n with_o satan_n perform_v on_o his_o part_n do_v bind_v god_n to_o perform_v his_o say_a reconciliation_n on_o his_o part_n and_o both_o these_o righteousness_n together_o with_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o covenant_n on_o the_o part_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v to_o proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n to_o convert_v sinner_n and_o to_o unite_v they_o to_o christ_n that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v fit_a subject_n for_o the_o say_a righteousness_n i_o say_v this_o voluntary_a and_o reciprocial_a covenant_n between_o the_o trinity_n do_v constitute_v all_o the_o cause_n of_o a_o sinner_n righteousness_n and_o in_o particular_a the_o covenant_n on_o the_o father_n part_n do_v constitute_v the_o formal_a part_n of_o it_o this_o positive_a create_a righteousness_n be_v unknown_a to_o natural_a philosopher_n it_o be_v not_o frame_v from_o the_o moral_a law_n of_o nature_n but_o it_o be_v a_o righteousness_n for_o sinner_n create_v on_o purpose_n by_o the_o voluntary_a positive_a law_n and_o covenant_n of_o the_o trinity_n 4._o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v that_o mr._n norton_n shall_v so_o much_o plead_v for_o the_o moral_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o matter_n and_o the_o imputation_n of_o it_o to_o be_v the_o form_n of_o our_o righteousness_n see_v it_o do_v not_o formal_o constitute_v adam_n righteousness_n as_o mr._n norton_n himself_o do_v also_o acknowledge_v in_o p._n 261._o and_o mr._n burges_n on_o justification_n p._n 8._o and_o indeed_o the_o reason_n thereof_o be_v very_o plain_a because_o god_n require_v that_o adam_n shall_v first_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n as_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n for_o procure_v the_o formality_n of_o his_o moral_a perfection_n and_o this_o tree_n have_v this_o efficacy_n from_o god_n voluntary_a positive_a covenant_n with_o adam_n as_o i_o have_v show_v more_o large_a already_o chap._n 2._o the_o dialogue_n say_v that_o sinner_n in_o themselves_o namely_o as_o long_o as_o they_o continue_v to_o be_v sinner_n which_o be_v as_o long_o as_o they_o live_v in_o this_o body_n of_o sin_n can_v have_v no_o other_o righteousness_n than_o a_o passive_a righteousness_n proceed_v from_o god_n merciful_a atonement_n pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n but_o mr._n norton_n in_o p._n 231._o leaf_n out_o these_o word_n in_o themselves_o and_o then_o make_v a_o false_a argument_n of_o the_o dialogue_n sense_n but_o i_o dare_v say_v no_o judicious_a christian_n that_o will_v but_o make_v through_o search_n into_o all_o the_o type_n of_o legal_a justification_n shall_v find_v any_o other_o way_n of_o make_v sinner_n righteous_a but_o by_o atonement_n or_o reconciliation_n in_o not_o impute_v sin_n reckon_v up_o the_o legal_a term_n by_o which_o atonement_n be_v express_v and_o that_o will_v justify_v what_o i_o say_v as_o by_o

the_o law_n but_o never_o any_o for_o make_v righteous_a by_o impute_v moral_a righteousness_n which_o doubtless_o will_v have_v be_v ordain_v to_o typify_v the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n moral_a righteousness_n in_o the_o formal_a cause_n of_o justification_n if_o any_o such_o thing_n have_v be_v intend_v for_o the_o only_a formal_a cause_n 5._o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o mr._n norton_n do_v wilful_o stumble_v at_o the_o stile_n of_o the_o dialogue_n because_o it_o make_v a_o sinner_n righteousness_n to_o be_v procure_v by_o christ_n sacrifice_n of_o atonement_n but_o any_o one_o may_v see_v that_o this_o phrase_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o atonement_n at_o which_o he_o stumble_v be_v a_o usual_a scripture_n phrase_n for_o the_o public_a yearly_a sin-offering_a be_v call_v the_o sin_n

the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n may_v well_o be_v call_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o atonement_n cause_n reconciliation_n or_o atonement_n describe_v both_o in_o the_o meritorious_a &_o formal_a cause_n for_o the_o procure_n of_o god_n atonement_n for_o all_o our_o moral_a sin_n and_o so_o consequent_o for_o our_o moral_a justification_n and_o this_o be_v most_o clear_a because_o the_o apostle_n do_v define_v god_n reconciliation_n to_o sinner_n by_o his_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n to_o they_o 2_o cor._n 5._o 19_o for_o as_o long_o as_o sin_n be_v impute_v it_o make_v a_o jar_n between_o god_n
