the Administrations of the Old Testament were of things which were of themselves of several natures some were Ceremonial as the Sacrifices their Temples their Tabernacles their Altars and such like some were Moral as their Prayers Repentance Reformations and all the Duties of the Moral Law For the Ceremonies that they were Types of Christ and so ceased by the coming of the substance Christ himself is generally acknowledged onely some attribute unto them no efficacy at all but only a shaddowing out of Christ and his benefits who was to come others say they had a typical carnal and t●mporal efficiency in the Mosaical Church and Common-wealth proper to that Administration and answerable in some way to the benefits in the New That they by the Ordinance of God brought down upon that People temporal and outward blessings answerable to the spiritual and eternal blessings by Christ Which Question is largely discussed by Vossius wherein I shall not interpose because they that attribute most unto those Ceremonial performances yet bound the effect of them within the compass of the Old Testament so that they resigned up their keyes and power unto their Lord and King whose harbingers they were at his appearing But for the Actions and Administrations of the Moral Law that they also were in some sort typical is not so usually observed as the former yet it is no less true Who can deny but that Phineas his praying or executing of justice whether soever it was for the Hebrew will probably bear either a Moral Action and yet typically shadowing out unto us Christ our Great High-Priest by whose interceding for us with the Father he is pacified towards us So not a few Protestant Writers have interpreted it But what speak I of one Action when as Dr. Taylor hath published a Book wherein he discovers all along a Typical shadowing forth of Christ not only in the Ceremonial but also Moral Actions of most of the Antient Patriarcks Priests Judges Kings and Prophets But here I do not desire to dispute the Question but only as briefly as I can to explain my Judgment Therefore in such Moral Actions as these I observe Three Things First Their Moral Nature whereby they are of perpetual use both in the time of the Old Testament and of the New as Prayer Repentance and other Actions of Duty towards God and man are as necessary as ever they were in the time of the Old Testament and shall be by the true Children of Faith as much practised and in a more spiritual manner contrary to that false slander that passeth abroad concerning us That we let men loose from all duties of piety towards God or charity towards man against which false reproaches the Lord will in time arise to the Vindication of his People In the mean time they may be bold to commend their names and reputations unto Him into whose hands they have already committed their souls Secondly In these actions there is their typical effect whereby if they were good Actions in that Administration they wrought proportionable effects as Phineas his praying stayed the plague If they were evil actions they brought evil effects as David's numbring the People brought the plague his Adultery the death of the Child c. These effects I call typical because they are attributed to these actions as they do typically relate unto Christ and setting aside that relation such an effect should not have been attributed unto them As for Example the prayer of Phineas had not stayd the plague if he had not therein stood as a Type of Christ who is the onely one that turns away all evil from those that are his who because he was not so reveal'd in those times therefore it was requisite that it should be shaddowed out unto them in this and such like Types so that the effect is only ascribed to the Type in umbra in the shadow but to the thing typified in veritate in the truth So I think I may say that all actions even of the Moral Law do in this manner point unto Christ In like sort David's Adultery brought the death of the Child as the typical effect of that sin So that David in that consideration bare his own sin But how Onely as a Type of Christ as manifesting that the Saviour of the World that was to bear their sins was yet to come Yet did he not really bear his own sin no not in any degree For so it was wholly reserved for the Lord Christ upon whom it was charged to the uttermost who made a full satisfaction not only for the eternal but also the temporal punishment of all that belong unto him not only for those since Christ but even for all from the beginning of the world so that neither David nor any other of the Children of God in the Old Testament had ever had any sins charged on them had they not stood as Types of him that was to come to bear the sins of many neither ever had they sins charged upon them in the real positive nature of it if I may so speak for so it was only and wholly born by Christ for them but onely as I said in this typical consideration For Christ onely hath with one sacrifice perfected for ever those that are consecrated Heb. 10.14 He onely is the propitiation for our sins 1 Joh. 2.1,2 And this he did not onely for those since Christ but also for the sins that were past Rom. 3.25 to wit under the former Covenant Heb. 9.15 So then in the time of the New Covenant since the death of Christ there is no remembrance of sin neither upon Christ who is risen again from the dead without sin nor upon the faithful seeing they cannot now be shadows of Christ to come who is already come and by the lustre of his presence hath made all shaddows flee away So that the whole amounteth to that which I layd down in the beginning namely That where any thing is attributed to persons or actions which is Christs own peculiar that is to be understood of those persons or actions onely as they do typically relate unto Christ and ought not to be ascribed to any other person or action though otherwise of the same kind which have not this typical relation unto Christ The Reason is taken from that main foundation of Christian Religion to wit The satisfaction of Christ is compleat and all the Scriptures hold it forth as All-sufficient and compleat Thus have I Christian Reader given thee a short abridgment of my thoughts concerning the difference of the Testaments so far as it concerns the present matter in debate and as the present occasion would permit being willing rather to trespass upon thee by this digression than to suffer this matter altogether to pass untouched being of such moment both for the Vindication of the Truth and Us from so many slanders Hereafter if God permit I may have an opportunity to explain my self more largely in
express himself what he meant by For and From sin if Mr. G. had not been willing to mistake that I may say no more Yea but saith Mr. G. for sin is nothing else but from sin Herein your Medicine for the Plague deceived you otherwise you might have observed that for sin notes sin to be the impulsive cause of the Affliction whereas from sin notes sin to be avoided to be the final cause of the Affliction And these are not all one The Learned Grotius De satisfactione Christi cap. 1. hath observed That as often as this phrase for sins is joyned to words of suffering it alwayes signifieth the impulsive cause Which is most true if only the difference of the Type and the Anti-type be observed and the impulsive cause accordingly distinguished For if you grant Socinus but that which Mr. G. here affirmeth That for sin is all one with from sin he will easily frustrate the satisfaction and expiation of Christ For if his dying for sin note nothing else but the final cause viz. That he might thereby teach us to avoid sin then Christ in regard of any Expiation of Sin hath utterly dyed in Vain Now concerning punishments and chastisements for sin whether they be incident to Believers or not Although Mr. G. by his slight and perfunctory passing it over hath not given occasion of any full and large discourse but have taken up the most trivial Arguments whereunto he cannot be ignorant That satisfactory Answers have been given unto which he hath said nothing at all for the satisfaction of the Reader I shall say a few things briefly 1. These words of Punishing and Chastizing for Sin can denote nothing else but the Meritorious and Impulsive cause namely That sin is the meriting cause and chastisements and punishments are the merited effects This Grotius whom I cited before hath fully evinced against Socinus whose words are these It cannot be shewn that these words ob peccata or propter peccata that is for sin especially where they are joyned to sufferings are ever taken otherwise in the Holy Scripture than in this signification of merit Where also he gives satisfaction to those Scriptures which were by Socinus cited to the contrary Now if any part of the just merit or desert of the sins of believers be notwithstanding the satisfactory sufferings of Christ laid upon believers to bear them in their own persons then it is most evidently apparent that Christ did not or did not sufficiently bear the full merit and desert of sin And that these sufferings being inflicted in a way and course of justice Christ hath not by his death fully satisfied the demands of Justice then which nothing can be said more dangerous and destructive to the very foundation of Christian faith Yet 2. I believe that sin as the impulsive cause and punishment or chastisement as the effect of sin may be considered two Wayes 1. In a Typical consideration 2. In a Moral I do not say that he did bear the whole Typical charge of sin pardon the expression I cannot meet with one more fit at this present for that were to make him the Type of himself That charge of sin was born wholly by the people of the old and typical Covenant both in their persons and administrations even until the very death of Christ wherein was exhibited the full Anti-type who only bore the sins of his people in the full merit and desert of them Morally or Really as Real is opposed to the Type For in the Death of Christ the Old Covenant with all its Types had an end and the New Testament or Covenant became in force Heb. 9.16 17. A Testament is of force after men are dead otherwise it is of no force at all whilst the Testator liveth But the Old Covenant did thereby decay wax old and vanish away Heb. 8.13 Yet as I said before several times and say it again that if it be possible the truth of what we hold might appear unto all men breaking through those many clouds of slander wherewith we have been and are encompassed I say that by the promise of the Messias or by the promised Messias they were all freely and perfectly before God justified they as we and we as they Act. 15.11 Christ bore the full Moral or Real charge of their sins in the same measure as he did ours Only I say with all approved Protestants that the Typical and Subservient Administration or Covenant did exceedingly darken this upon their spirits not to hinder the benefits of Christ that they should not so spiritually come upon them But only that the enjoyment should not be with that Lustre and Glory as they are set forth to be enjoyed in the New Testament whereunto therefore in some measure the Gospel is restrained and it is by way of glorious eminence styled the Kingdom of Heaven Even that administration of the Gospel of the grace of God here on earth Mat. 3.2 and 26.29 So then we say that as all Types ceased at the death of Christ so likewise did all Typical charging of sin therewith all cease 3. Albeit we acknowledg the same or rather more hard things to flesh and blood do usually befall the children of the New Testament then did those of the Old in regard of the sharpness whereof and the event also that they have in their conversation they are somtimes called chastisements or corrections or Rebukes Yet their great consolation is that it is not the good pleasure of God their well pleased and fully reconciled Father that they should in any way bear the desert and merit of there own sin charged upon them either typically as though the true Lamb of God which was to bear the sins of the world and take them away were not yet come or Really as though there were no Lamb of God at all for them that either had or ever would suffer for their sins So that their present sufferings be they never so smart yet are but trials and exercises of faith and therein pure testimonies of love not of Anger or of Punitive Justice to the spiritual eye which discerneth all things even as they are the dispensations not only of a Father but also of a well-pleased Father in and through his beloved Son Matt. 3.17 For although here below and to the eyes of flesh all things seem to be black cloudy and tempestuous yet the eye of faith mounts up above the clouds and there discerns the full serenity of Heaven notwithstanding the contrary appearances here below And if in the wayes of God herein towards us there seems to be some reference unto sin yet is it not to sin in its own nature as it is the transgression of Gods Law calling for justice from God in some way or other for so it was utterly purged and done away by the Death of Christ Heb 1.3 1 Joh. 3.5 But as they are grievances unto Gods people as they are a continual trouble and vexation unto
