Iohn saith was not in him He fulfilled the Law for vs perfectly For our sakes he endured most grieuous torments immediatly in his soule and most painfull sufferings in his body He was crucified and died to reconcile his Father vnto vs and to be a sacrifice not only for originall guilt but also for all our actuall transgressions He was buried and descended into hell and the third day rose from the dead and tooke againe his body with flesh bones and all things appertaining to the perfection of mans nature wherewith he ascended into Heauen and there sitteth at the right hand of his Father vntill he returne to iudge all men at the last day Of the communicating of the grace of Christ article 31 THey are to be condemned that presume to say that euery man shall bee saued by the law or sect which he professeth so that he be diligent to frame his life according to that law and the light of nature For holy Scripture doth set out vnto vs onely the name of Iesus Christ whereby men must be saued article 32 None can come vnto Christ vnlesse it bee giuen vnto him and vnlesse the Father draw him And all men are not so drawne by the Father that they may come vnto the Sonne Neither is there such a sufficient measure of grace vouchsafed vnto euery man whereby hee is enabled to come vnto euerlasting life article 33 All Gods elect are in their time inseparably vnited vnto Christ by the effectuall and vitall influence of the holy Ghost deriued from him as from the head vnto euery true member of his mysticall body And being thus made one with Christ they are truely regenerated and made partakers of him and all his benefits Of Iustification and Faith article 34 WE are accounted righteous before God only for the merit of our Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ applyed by faith and not for our owne workes or merits And this righteousnesse which we so receiue of Gods mercy and Christs merits imbraced by faith is taken accepted and allowed of God for our perfect and full iustification article 35 Although this iustification be free vnto vs yet it commeth not so freely vnto vs that there is no ransome paid therfore at all God shewed his great mercy
