Vindiciarum vindex, being a succinct, but full answer to Mr. Philip Cary's weak and impertinent exceptions to my Vindiciæ legis & fæderis, II. a synopsis of ancient and modern Antinomian errors, with scriptural arguments and reasons against them, III. a sermon composed for the preventing and healing of rents and divisions in the churches of Christ / by John Flavell ... ; with an epistle by several divines, relating to Dr. Crisp's works.

deformity_n thereof_o shall_v pass_v from_o our_o person_n to_o christ_n and_o subjective_o to_o inhere_o in_o he_o as_o they_o do_v in_o we_o than_o it_o will_v follow_v first_o that_o our_o

union_n which_o union_n be_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o his_o satisfaction_n and_o our_o salvation_n though_o the_o divine_a nature_n can_v and_o do_v dwell_v in_o union_n with_o the_o pure_a and_o sinless_a human_a nature_n of_o christ_n yet_o it_o can_v dwell_v in_o union_n with_o sin_n second_o this_o supposition_n will_v render_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o cross_n altogether_o unable_a to_o satisfy_v for_o we_o he_o can_v not_o have_v be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n to_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v perfect_o pure_a and_o spotless_a 1_o

complete_o sinful_a as_o we_o then_o i_o can_v see_v which_o way_n to_o avoid_v it_o but_o that_o the_o very_a same_o act_n and_o habit_n of_o sin_n must_v inhere_o both_o in_o christ_n and_o in_o believer_n also_o for_o i_o suppose_v our_o adversary_n will_v not_o deny_v that_o notwithstanding_o god_n lay_v the_o sin_n of_o believer_n upon_o christ_n there_o remain_v in_o all_o believer_n after_o their_o justification_n sinful_a inclination_n and_o aversation_n a_o law_n of_o sin_n in_o their_o member_n a_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n do_v these_o thing_n pass_v from_o they_o to_o christ_n and_o yet_o do_v they_o still_o inhere_o in_o they_o why_o do_v they_o complain_v and_o groan_v of_o indwelling_a sin_n as_o rom._n 7._o if_o sin_n itself_o be_v so_o transfer_v from_o they_o to_o christ_n sure_o unless_o man_n will_v dare_v to_o say_v the_o same_o act_n and_o habit_n of_o sin_n which_o they_o feel_v in_o themselves_o be_v as_o true_o in_o christ_n as_o in_o themselves_o they_o have_v no_o ground_n to_o say_v that_o by_o god_n lay_v their_o iniquity_n upon_o christ_n he_o become_v as_o complete_o sinful_a as_o they_o be_v and_o if_o they_o shall_v so_o affirm_v that_o
