12_o ver_fw-la of_o that_o chapter_n to_o the_o end_n of_o it_o be_v evident_o to_o prove_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o as_o sin_n come_v first_o into_o the_o world_n by_o adam_n disobedience_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o do_v not_o only_o seize_v on_o he_o but_o descend_v upon_o all_o his_o posterity_n even_o upon_o they_o that_o have_v not_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n that_o be_v against_o a_o law_n promulgate_v as_o he_o do_v he_o beget_v they_o in_o his_o image_n after_o his_o fall_n in_o his_o apostate_n state_n and_o not_o in_o his_o innocncy_n so_o from_o christ_n obedience_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n come_v righteousness_n life_n and_o salvation_n in_o three_o thing_n the_o apostle_n make_v the_o feadship_n of_o adam_n and_o that_o of_o christ_n to_o run_v parallel_n first_o as_o adam_n have_v a_o public_a station_n and_o stand_v so_o relate_v to_o other_o that_o he_o have_v power_n to_o involve_v they_o in_o his_o own_o condition_n so_o have_v christ_n second_o the_o effect_n of_o adam_n sin_n be_v universal_a come_v upon_o all_o the_o effect_n of_o christ_n obedience_n be_v so_o come_v upon_o all_o that_o be_v both_o upon_o jew_n and_o gentile_n without_o distinction_n which_o be_v the_o grand_a point_n the_o apostle_n be_v all_o along_o make_v good_a three_o the_o first_o adam_n by_o his_o disobedience_n be_v the_o general_a author_n of_o death_n christ_n the_o second_o adam_n by_o obedience_n be_v the_o great_a introducer_n of_o life_n and_o second_o that_o there_o be_v not_o and_o exact_a equality_n and_o even_a proportion_n between_o the_o headship_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o headship_n of_o adam_n so_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o in_o the_o 15_o and_o 16_o ver_fw-la but_o not_o as_o the_o offence_n so_o also_o be_v the_o free_a gift_n for_o if_o through_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o many_o be_v dead_a much_o more_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n by_o grace_n by_o one_o man_n jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o not_o as_o it_o be_v by_o one_o that_o sin_v so_o be_v the_o gift_n i_o or_o the_o judgement_n be_v by_o one_o to_o condemnation_n but_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n the_o advantage_n lie_v much_o on_o christ_n side_n in_o the_o comparison_n and_o that_o in_o three_o respect_n first_o christ_n spiritual_a seed_n believer_n be_v not_o so_o like_v he_o in_o degree_n of_o holiness_n as_o adam_n natural_a posterity_n be_v like_o he_o in_o degree_n of_o sin_n and_o yet_o life_n reign_v as_o triumphant_o among_o they_o as_o death_n do_v over_o the_o posterity_n of_o adam_n second_o it_o be_v one_o sin_n of_o adam_n that_o introduce_v death_n but_o christ_n obedience_n and_o the_o gift_n bring_v in_o by_o he_o be_v not_o upon_o the_o occasion_n of_o that_o or_o any_o other_o one_o sin_n but_o of_o many_o be_v the_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o procure_v forgiveness_n not_o only_o for_o that_o sin_n but_o for_o all_o other_o sin_n whatsoever_o that_o have_v ensue_v thereupon_o and_o three_o there_o be_v a_o disparity_n between_o adam_n and_o christ_n in_o this_o and_o the_o advantage_n lie_v much_o on_o christ_n side_n that_o one_o sin_n one_o act_n of_o disobedience_n be_v enough_o to_o condemn_v but_o more_o the_o one_o act_n of_o obedience_n be_v requisite_a to_o procure_v our_o pardon_n and_o so_o although_o christ_n do_v not_o save_v by_o his_o obedience_n so_o many_o as_o adam_n condemn_v by_o his_o disobedience_n yet_o the_o second_o adam_n be_v much_o more_o potent_a than_o the_o first_o because_o there_o be_v much_o more_o efficacy_n require_v in_o the_o save_v of_o one_o then_o there_o be_v in_o the_o condemn_v of_o many_o as_o the_o restore_n of_o one_o dead_a to_o life_n be_v much_o hard_a than_o the_o destroy_n of_o the_o life_n of_o many_o now_o how_o by_o one_o man_n disobedience_n be_v many_o make_v sinner_n why_o adam_n who_o have_v all_o mankind_n virtual_o in_o himself_o turn_v a_o rebel_n and_o a_o apostate_n his_o natural_a state_n be_v thereby_o change_v his_o nature_n be_v attaint_v and_o become_v sinful_a and_o so_o fall_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o death_n and_o that_o be_v include_v in_o the_o penalty_n threaten_v in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v thy_o natural_a state_n shall_v be_v change_v and_o subject_v to_o death_n and_o this_o fall_v out_o before_o he_o have_v propagate_v any_o of_o his_o kind_n he_o beget_v all_o his_o posterity_n in_o the_o same_o sinful_a mortal_a state_n with_o himself_o so_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o in_o adam_n all_o dye_n that_o be_v he_o become_v mortal_a all_o be_v so_o propagate_v and_o death_n reign_v upon_o that_o account_n so_o on_o the_o contrary_a by_o one_o man_n ●●●obedience_n many_o be_v make_v righteous_a as_o all_o mere_a man_n sin_v in_o adam_n be_v all_o in_o he_o and_o undergo_v the_o effect_n of_o that_o sin_n so_o all_o believer_n have_v virtual_o satisfy_v for_o sin_n in_o christ_n by_o christ_n obedience_n and_o satisfaction_n we_o come_v to_o be_v pardon_v account_v of_o as_o righteous_a and_o save_v but_o still_o it_o be_v as_o a_o effect_n of_o christ_n obedience_n that_o we_o come_v to_o be_v make_v righteous_a for_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o say_v in_o one_o man_n obedience_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a but_o by_o one_o man_n obedience_n as_o a_o consequent_a and_o effect_v of_o it_o many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a as_o the_o effect_n of_o one_o man_n disobedience_n many_o come_v to_o be_v shape_v in_o iniquity_n and_o bring_v forth_o in_o a_o sinful_a condemn_a nature_n so_o as_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o one_o man_n obedience_n many_o
