when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n be_v the_o alone_a ground_n of_o a_o sinner_n justification_n before_o god_n answ_n §_n 1._o the_o doctrine_n of_o satisfaction_n and_o justification_n true_o understand_v be_v place_v in_o so_o strict_a a_o union_n that_o the_o one_o be_v a_o necessary_a consequence_n of_o the_o other_o and_o what_o we_o say_v of_o they_o be_v what_o agree_v with_o the_o suffrage_n of_o scripture_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o the_o term_n of_o it_o always_o believe_v that_o in_o point_n where_o there_o arise_v any_o difficulty_n be_v it_o from_o the_o

and_o maintain_v charity_n in_o the_o rest_n i_o shall_v first_o speak_v negative_o what_o we_o do_v not_o own_o which_o perhaps_o have_v give_v occasion_n to_o those_o who_o have_v be_v more_o hasty_a than_o wise_a to_o judge_v we_o defective_a in_o our_o belief_n of_o the_o efficacy_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n to_o justification_n as_o §_o 2._o first_o we_o can_v believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n but_o the_o effect_n of_o god_n love_n according_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o belove_a disciple_n john_n chap._n 3._o god_n have_v so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v give_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n into_o the_o world_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v on_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n second_o we_o can_v say_v god_n can_v not_o have_v take_v another_o way_n to_o have_v save_v sinner_n than_o by_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o his_o son_n to_o satisfy_v his_o justice_n or_o that_o christ_n death_n and_o suffering_n be_v a_o strict_a and_o rigid_a satisfaction_n for_o that_o eternal_a death_n and_o misery_n due_a to_o man_n for_o sin_n and_o transgression_n for_o such_o a_o notion_n be_v to_o make_v god_n mercy_n little_o concern_v in_o man_n salvation_n and_o indeed_o we_o be_v at_o too_o great_a a_o distance_n from_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o power_n to_o judge_v of_o the_o liberty_n or_o necessity_n of_o his_o act_n three_o we_o can_v say_v jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o world_n because_o he_o bear_v our_o sin_n on_o his_o cross_n or_o because_o he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o who_o know_v no_o sin_n a_o expression_n of_o great_a levity_n and_o unsoundness_n yet_o often_o say_v by_o great_a preacher_n and_o professor_n of_o religion_n four_o we_o can_v believe_v that_o christ_n death_n and_o suffering_n so_o satisfy_v god_n or_o justify_v man_n as_o that_o they_o be_v thereby_o accept_v of_o god_n they_o be_v indeed_o thereby_o put_v into_o a_o state_n capable_a of_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o through_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o acceptance_n for_o we_o can_v never_o think_v a_o man_n justify_v before_o god_n while_o self-condemned_n or_o that_o any_o man_n can_v be_v in_o christ_n who_o be_v not_o a_o new_a creature_n or_o that_o god_n look_v upon_o man_n otherwise_o than_o they_o be_v we_o think_v it_o a_o state_n of_o presumption_n and_o not_o of_o salvation_n to_o call_v jesus_n lord_n and_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n master_n and_o he_o not_o yet_o master_n of_o our_o affection_n saviour_n and_o they_o not_o save_v by_o he_o from_o their_o sin_n redeemer_n and_o yet_o they_o not_o redeem_v by_o he_o from_o their_o passion_n pride_n covetousness_n wantonness_n vanity_n honour_n vain_a friendship_n and_o glory_n of_o this_o world_n which_o be_v to_o deceive_v themselves_o for_o god_n will_v not_o be_v mock_v such_o as_o man_n sow_v such_o they_o must_v reap_v and_o though_o christ_n do_v die_v for_o we_o yet_o we_o must_v by_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o grace_n work_v out_o our_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a as_o he_o die_v for_o sin_n so_o we_o must_v die_v to_o sin_n or_o we_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n or_o thorough_o justify_v and_o accept_v with_o god_n thus_o far_o negative_o now_o positive_o what_o we_o own_v as_o to_o justification_n §_o 3._o we_o do_v believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o holy_a sacrifice_n and_o atonement_n and_o propitiation_n that_o he_o bear_v our_o iniquity_n and_o that_o by_o his_o stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v of_o the_o wound_v adam_n give_v we_o in_o his_o fall_n and_o that_o god_n be_v just_a in_o forgive_a true_a penitent_n upon_o the_o credit_n of_o that_o holy_a offer_n christ_n make_v of_o himself_o to_o god_n for_o we_o and_o that_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v satisfy_v and_o please_v god_n and_o be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o fall_a man_n that_o have_v displease_v god_n and_o that_o through_o the_o offer_n up_o of_o himself_o once_o for_o

rom._n 8._o 1._o mark_v that_o §_o 4._o in_o short_a justification_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n or_o have_v a_o twofold_a consideration_n viz._n justification_n from_o the_o gild_n of_o sin_n and_o justification_n from_o the_o power_n and_o pollution_n of_o sin_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n justification_n give_v man_n a_o full_a and_o clear_a acceptance_n before_o god_n for_o want_v of_o this_o latter_a part_n it_o be_v that_o so_o many_o soul_n religious_o incline_v be_v often_o under_o doubt_n scruple_n and_o dependency_n notwithstanding_o all_o that_o their_o teacher_n tell_v they_o of_o the_o extent_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o first_o part_n of_o justification_n and_o it_o be_v too_o

of_o the_o objection_n as_o well_o as_o i_o can_v and_o then_o give_v my_o answer_n to_o it_o §_o 2._o if_o by_o natural_a be_v mean_v a_o create_a thing_n as_o man_n be_v or_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v requisite_a to_o the_o composition_n of_o man_n i_o deny_v it_o the_o text_n be_v express_o against_o it_o and_o say_v the_o light_n with_o which_o man_n be_v light_v be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o

without_o as_o by_o angel_n or_o man_n then_o we_o mean_v and_o intend_v the_o same_o thing_n for_o it_o be_v natural_a to_o man_n to_o have_v a_o supernatural_a light_n and_o for_o the_o creature_n to_o be_v light_v by_o a_o uncreated_a light_n as_o be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o create_a word_n and_o do_v people_n but_o consider_v the_o constitution_n of_o man_n it_o will_v conduce_v much_o to_o preserve_v or_o deliver_v they_o from_o any_o dilemma_n upon_o this_o account_n for_o man_n can_v no_o more_o be_v a_o light_n to_o his_o mind_n than_o he_o be_v to_o his_o body_n he_o have_v the_o
