A39120	Vindiciæ justificationis gratuitæ = Justification without conditions, or, The free justification of a sinner : explained, confirmed, and vindicated, from the exceptions, objections, and seeming absurdities, which are cast upon it, by the assertors of conditional justification : more especially from the attempts of Mr. B. Woodbridge in his sermon, entituled (Justification by faith), of Mr. Cranford in his Epistle to the reader, and of Mr. Baxter in some passages, which relate to the same matter : wherein also, the absoluteness of the New Covenant is proved, and the arguments against it, are disproved / by W. Eyre ...	Eyre, William, 1612 or 13-1670.; Owen, John, 1616-1683.	1654 (1654)	Wing E3947A; ESTC R40198	198,474	230

in_o christ_n nor_o any_o more_o benefit_n by_o his_o death_n than_o reprobate_n till_o they_o do_v believe_v and_o that_o they_o be_v but_o dreamer_n who_o do_v conceit_n the_o contrary_n i_o know_v not_o what_o can_v be_v speak_v more_o contradictory_n to_o many_o plain_a scripture_n which_o shall_v be_v mention_v anon_o more_o derogatory_n to_o the_o full_a atonement_n which_o christ_n have_v make_v by_o his_o death_n and_o more_o disconsolatory_a to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n in_o lay_v the_o whole_a weight_n of_o their_o salvation_n upon_o a_o uncertain_a condition_n of_o their_o own_o perform_v and_o therefore_o after_o the_o exercise_n be_v full_o end_v i_o desire_v the_o minister_n that_o preach_v that_o with_o his_o leave_n and_o the_o patience_n of_o the_o congregation_n i_o may_v remonstrate_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o his_o ground_n or_o reason_n to_o uphold_v the_o doctrine_n he_o have_v deliver_v three_o of_o which_o i_o take_v more_o especial_a notice_n of_o one_o be_v draw_v from_o the_o parallel_n between_o the_o first_o and_o the_o second_o adam_n as_o man_n say_v he_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o adam_n sin_n till_o they_o have_v a_o be_v so_o the_o elect_n have_v no_o benefit_n by_o christ_n till_o they_o have_v a_o be_v whereunto_o he_o add_v those_o old_a philosophical_a maxim_n non_fw-la entis_fw-la non_fw-la sunt_fw-la accidentia_fw-la and_o accidentis_fw-la esse_fw-la est_fw-la inesse_fw-la another_o be_v that_o where_o there_o be_v no_o union_n there_o can_v be_v no_o communion_n but_o there_o be_v no_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o elect_n before_o they_o believe_v therefore_o the_o elect_n have_v no_o communion_n and_o participation_n in_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v and_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o assumption_n be_v manage_v thus_o the_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o saint_n be_v a_o personal_a union_n which_o can_v be_v suppose_v till_o their_o person_n have_v a_o be_v a_o three_o ground_n upon_o which_o he_o lay_v the_o great_a stress_n be_v to_o this_o purpose_n the_o elect_n have_v no_o benefit_n by_o christ_n before_o they_o do_v believe_v because_o god_n have_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o his_o son_n that_o they_o for_o who_o he_o die_v shall_v be_v admit_v to_o partake_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o death_n by_o faith_n §_o 6._o whereunto_o my_o reply_v be_v to_o this_o effect_n i_o tell_v he_o that_o i_o conceive_v his_o first_o allegation_n make_v very_o much_o against_o he_o for_o if_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n do_v come_v upon_o all_o the_o elect_a unto_o justification_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o adam_n sin_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n as_o the_o apostle_n show_v it_o do_v rom._n 5._o then_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v reckon_v or_o impute_v to_o the_o elect_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v and_o then_o much_o more_o before_o they_o do_v believe_v in_o he_o for_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o adam_n sin_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v for_o by_o that_o first_o transgression_n say_v the_o apostle_n vers_fw-la 12._o sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o more_o plain_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n the_o reason_n follow_v because_o in_o he_o or_o in_o his_o loin_n all_o have_v sin_v now_o as_o in_o adam_n the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v all_z that_o shall_v perish_v be_v constitute_v sinner_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o

that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o reason_n for_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n to_o all_o the_o elect_n before_o they_o believe_v as_o there_o be_v for_o the_o imputation_n of_o adam_n sin_n unto_o his_o posterity_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v because_o say_v he_o the_o issue_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n fall_v upon_o adam_n posterity_n in_o a_o natural_a and_o necessary_a way_n but_o the_o issue_n of_o christ_n death_n do_v come_v to_o we_o in_o a_o supernatural_a way_n but_o this_o reason_n seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v of_o small_a validity_n for_o the_o issue_n of_o adam_n disobedience_n come_v not_o upon_o his_o posterity_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o natural_a propagation_n for_o than_o his_o sin_n shall_v be_v impute_v unto_o none_o until_o they_o be_v actual_o propagate_v and_o the_o sin_n of_o other_o parent_n shall_v be_v impute_v to_o their_o posterity_n as_o much_o as_o adam_n because_o they_o descend_v as_o natural_o from_o their_o immediate_a parent_n as_o they_o do_v from_o adam_n so_o that_o the_o issue_n of_o adam_n sin_n may_v be_v say_v to_o descend_v to_o his_o posterity_n in_o a_o supernatural_a way_n i._n e._n by_o virtue_n of_o god_n covenant_n which_o be_v make_v with_o he_o as_o a_o common_a person_n in_o behalf_n of_o all_o his_o posterity_n and_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n do_v the_o issue_n of_o christ_n obedience_n descend_v unto_o god_n elect_n by_o virtue_n of_o that_o covenant_n which_o be_v make_v with_o christ_n as_o a_o common_a person_n in_o their_o behalf_n and_o therefore_o unless_o they_o can_v show_v any_o proviso_n or_o restriction_n in_o the_o second_o covenant_n more_o than_o in_o the_o first_o why_o life_n shall_v not_o flow_v as_o immediate_o to_o the_o elect_a from_o christ_n obedience_n as_o death_n do_v from_o adam_n disobedience_n the_o argument_n will_v stand_v in_o force_n but_o to_o return_v to_o my_o discourse_n with_o mr._n warren_n i_o add_v that_o those_o logical_a axiom_n non_fw-la entis_fw-la etc._n etc._n have_v no_o force_n at_o all_o in_o the_o present_a controversy_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o christ_n righteousness_n can_v be_v impute_v to_o we_o before_o we_o have_v a_o actual_a create_v be_v because_o accident_n can_v subsist_v without_o their_o subject_n for_o as_o much_o as_o impute_a righteousness_n be_v not_o a_o accident_n inherent_a in_o we_o and_o consequent_o do_v not_o necessary_o require_v our_o existence_n christ_n be_v the_o subject_a of_o this_o righteousness_n and_o the_o imputation_n of_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o god_n now_o the_o apostle_n have_v observe_v that_o god_n in_o justify_v and_o impute_v righteousness_n call_v thing_n that_o be_v not_o as_o if_o they_o be_v rom._n 4.17_o as_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v actual_o impute_v to_o the_o patriarch_n before_o it_o be_v wrought_v and_o our_o sin_n be_v actual_o impute_v to_o christ_n before_o they_o be_v commit_v so_o i_o see_v no_o inconvenience_n to_o say_v that_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v by_o god_n impute_v to_o the_o elect_n before_o they_o have_v a_o be_v §_o 7._o as_o to_o his_o second_o reason_n before_o
