and_o when_o do_v they_o end_v quest._n 3_o three_o whether_o do_v he_o suffer_v they_o in_o soul_n or_o in_o body_n or_o in_o both_o quest._n 1_o first_o what_o be_v the_o punishment_n that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v of_o what_o kind_n be_v they_o answer_n for_o answer_v hereunto_o he_o suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o the_o first_o death_n by_o the_o first_o death_n i_o mean_v the_o death_n natural_a when_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v take_v down_o and_o those_o two_o old_a familiar_a friend_n be_v part_v this_o death_n our_o saviour_n do_v suffer_v but_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o how_o far_o he_o do_v suffer_v the_o death_n natural_a let_v i_o answer_v it_o in_o three_o conclusion_n first_o whatsoever_o appertain_v to_o the_o substance_n and_o the_o essential_o of_o the_o first_o death_n that_o be_v the_o desolation_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n do_v suffer_v for_o that_o only_o be_v threaten_v unto_o adam_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o sin_n therefore_o christ_n need_v not_o to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n but_o that_o which_o be_v threaten_v in_o genesis_n 2.17_o the_o curse_n threaten_v be_v this_o in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o do_v eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n the_o curse_n do_v not_o mention_v many_o death_n nor_o do_v it_o punctual_o set_v forth_o any_o one_o death_n but_o whatsoever_o death_n it_o be_v it_o be_v leave_v indifferent_o to_o the_o choice_n of_o our_o saviour_n this_o i_o speak_v to_o wipe_v away_o a_o carnal_a cavil_n that_o be_v cast_v upon_o this_o truth_n by_o some_o that_o will_v diminish_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n if_o christ_n do_v suffer_v punishment_n for_o all_o then_o why_o be_v he_o not_o stone_v with_o stone_n as_o steven_n be_v and_o why_o be_v he_o not_o saw_v in_o piece_n or_o burn_v or_o the_o like_a the_o force_n of_o the_o argument_n follow_v not_o our_o saviour_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o suffer_v many_o death_n nay_o the_o curse_n do_v not_o intimate_v any_o one_o death_n in_o particular_a but_o only_a death_n in_o the_o general_a now_o say_v they_o if_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v all_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o faithful_a than_o he_o suffer_v so_o many_o particular_a death_n the_o argument_n be_v false_a for_o look_v how_o adam_n be_v in_o the_o root_n of_o all_o mankind_n and_o commit_v sin_n look_v what_o death_n he_o deserve_v that_o death_n our_o saviour_n be_v to_o suffer_v and_o it_o be_v require_v of_o he_o and_o this_o death_n our_o saviour_n undertake_v but_o when_o adam_n have_v commit_v sin_n there_o be_v not_o many_o death_n denounce_v nay_o nor_o any_o one_o particular_a death_n but_o only_a death_n in_o the_o general_a and_o therefore_o death_n in_o the_o general_a be_v only_o threaten_v death_n in_o the_o general_a our_o saviour_n be_v only_o bind_v to_o suffer_v second_o though_o the_o curse_n do_v not_o require_v any_o one_o particular_a death_n and_o say_v thou_o shall_v be_v stone_v or_o saw_v in_o piece_n or_o the_o like_a yet_o that_o the_o lord_n may_v show_v the_o heinousness_n of_o sin_n which_o deserve_v the_o worst_a death_n of_o all_o and_o to_o express_v the_o greatness_n of_o the_o lâ—â—e_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v content_v to_o die_v in_o that_o manner_n and_o that_o god_n the_o father_n may_v show_v his_o justice_n in_o punish_v of_o sin_n for_o this_o end_n god_n the_o father_n appoint_v it_o and_o christ_n undertake_v it_o to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n a_o most_o shameful_a and_o base_a death_n only_o appropriate_a to_o the_o base_a malefactor_n now_o christ_n do_v willing_o submit_v himself_o to_o this_o and_o god_n the_o father_n do_v lay_v this_o upon_o christ_n that_o sin_n may_v appear_v to_o be_v most_o heinous_a and_o that_o sin_n may_v be_v hate_v and_o christ_n may_v appear_v most_o merciful_a and_o gracious_a and_o holy_a in_o loathe_v sin_n as_o philippian_n 2.6_o 8._o our_o saviour_n be_v equal_a with_o the_o father_n and_o think_v

seize_v upon_o a_o creature_n and_o the_o vein_n of_o vengeance_n which_o be_v let_v into_o his_o soul_n if_o god_n will_v be_v present_a with_o a_o man_n by_o his_o favour_n though_o he_o be_v in_o

the_o place_n be_v no_o part_n of_o debt_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o payment_n but_o the_o payment_n of_o the_o money_n that_o make_v the_o satisfaction_n this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v speak_v concern_v adam_n thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n he_o do_v not_o say_v thou_o shall_v go_v to_o hell_n the_o wicked_a go_v to_o hell_n because_o they_o can_v pay_v as_o the_o

because_o the_o wicked_a can_v satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n and_o answer_v the_o law_n therefore_o they_o be_v imprison_v and_o coop_v up_o in_o hell_n and_o it_o may_v be_v more_o plain_a thus_o there_o be_v many_o reprobate_n in_o this_o life_n that_o have_v not_o only_a hell_n in_o expectation_n but_o they_o have_v it_o so_o far_o in_o fruition_n when_o the_o lord_n wound_v the_o

observe_v these_o three_o particular_n herein_o first_o the_o godhead_n in_o the_o death_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v fasten_v and_o unite_v inseparable_o to_o the_o manhood_n and_o do_v sustain_v and_o support_v the_o manhood_n second_o the_o godhead_n do_v preserve_v the_o manhood_n from_o corruption_n and_o do_v sustain_v and_o support_v the_o manhood_n three_o the_o sense_n and_o

the_o suffering_n and_o the_o godhead_n support_v he_o in_o the_o suffering_n this_o conclusion_n i_o think_v good_a to_o add_v to_o meet_v with_o a_o strange_a dream_n of_o bellarmine_n and_o that_o

christ_n be_v in_o himself_o consider_v he_o be_v guiltless_a and_o therefore_o approve_v of_o and_o belove_v of_o the_o father_n but_o as_o he_o take_v our_o sin_n and_o our_o guilt_n upon_o he_o he_o be_v account_v as_o a_o sinner_n though_o he_o be_v not_o a_o sinner_n and_o he_o take_v our_o sin_n on_o he_o by_o imputation_n and_o therefore_o no_o reason_n but_o he_o shall_v suffer_v they_o

suffer_v not_o for_o any_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v but_o for_o the_o condition_n of_o all_o sinful_a nature_n impute_v to_o he_o and_o these_o divers_a respect_n we_o do_v practice_v for_o

nisi_fw-la prius_fw-la and_o his_o son_n come_v before_o he_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o debtor_n now_o though_o the_o judge_n love_v he_o as_o a_o son_n yet_o he_o will_v condemn_v he_o as_o a_o

when_o god_n the_o father_n stand_v upon_o the_o tribunal_n of_o justice_n and_o be_v please_v to_o follow_v

lie_v and_o the_o caution_n be_v three_o first_o that_o whatsoever_o the_o scripture_n do_v speak_v concern_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n it_o mean_v they_o real_o they_o be_v not_o show_n nor_o

this_o be_v a_o mere_a dore_a delusion_n and_o for_o ever_o to_o be_v abhor_v for_o unless_o we_o yield_v it_o that_o christ_n do_v suffer_v these_o real_o we_o shake_v off_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o whole_a story_n and_o so_o we_o can_v have_v no_o true_a foothold_a for_o our_o comfort_n second_o i_o say_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v express_v in_o the_o scripture_n we_o must_v conceive_v of_o it_o without_o the_o least_o suspicion_n of_o sin_n in_o our_o saviour_n therefore_o evermore_o maintain_v a_o holy_a reverence_n and_o a_o holy_a regard_n of_o the_o action_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n that_o you_o may_v not_o charge_v he_o with_o the_o least_o inclination_n to_o any_o distemper_n three_o our_o saviour_n be_v not_o compel_v proper_o to_o suffer_v either_o out_o of_o the_o necessity_n of_o nature_n be_v weak_a and_o sinful_a for_o indeed_o sorrow_n do_v come_v proper_o out_o of_o our_o corruption_n and_o flow_v out_o from_o thence_o and_o as_o heat_n and_o fire_n go_v together_o so_o sin_n and_o misery_n go_v together_o but_o there_o be_v no_o such_o matter_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n nay_o there_o be_v no_o outward_a cause_n in_o our_o saviour_n that_o can_v compel_v he_o to_o suffer_v misery_n whether_o he_o will_v or_o no_o but_o he_o do_v most_o willing_o submit_v himself_o to_o divine_a justice_n she_o take_v our_o place_n and_o become_v our_o surety_n and_o promise_v the_o payment_n of_o the_o debt_n free_o yet_o aside_o he_o have_v do_v thus_o it_o be_v necessary_a upon_o condition_n promise_v and_o he_o do_v also_o

to_o cast_v away_o all_o hope_n and_o expectation_n of_o any_o good_a this_o be_v proper_o to_o despair_v for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o good_a thing_n with_o we_o than_o we_o be_v say_v to_o have_v

he_o have_v so_o deep_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n of_o affliction_n he_o say_v now_o it_o be_v finish_v that_o be_v now_o the_o fierce_a indignation_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v over_o take_v a_o little_a

that_o may_v be_v alter_v and_o change_v as_o the_o debt_n or_o punishment_n be_v full_o suffer_v or_o not_o suffer_v as_o for_o example_n the_o time_n of_o a_o man_n lie_v in_o prison_n be_v no_o
