with_o christ_n we_o shall_v be_v enable_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o second_o place_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o which_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n i_o propose_v in_o the_o beginning_n the_o connexion_n and_o conjunction_n of_o these_o two_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o where_o first_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o remember_v you_o of_o what_o i_o former_o deliver_v in_o the_o unfolding_n of_o these_o word_n that_o the_o life_n that_o the_o apostle_n here_o mean_v when_o he_o say_v if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o it_o be_v the_o same_o that_o in_o verse_n 4._o he_o call_v newness_n of_o life_n therefore_o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o by_o baptism_n into_o death_n that_o as_o christ_n be_v raise_v by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n so_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n i_o say_v the_o apostle_n mean_v here_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o in_o verse_n 4._o he_o call_v newness_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 11._o he_o call_v it_o live_v to_o god_n likewise_o reckon_v you_o yourselves_o dead_a to_o sin_n but_o alive_a to_o god_n though_o secondary_o and_o by_o consequent_a i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o apostle_n mean_v live_v with_o god_n in_o life_n eternal_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v as_o i_o show_v before_o that_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o life_n of_o glory_n it_o be_v not_o in_o nature_n but_o in_o degree_n grace_n be_v glory_n begin_v and_o glory_n be_v nothing_o but_o grace_v perfect_v as_o the_o child_n in_o the_o womb_n have_v the_o same_o life_n that_o it_o enjoy_v in_o the_o world_n only_o than_o it_o be_v in_o a_o further_a degree_n so_o the_o life_n that_o a_o christian_n enjoy_v in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v the_o same_o life_n in_o nature_n though_o it_o differ_v in_o degree_n from_o that_o he_o enjoy_v in_o heaven_n the_o apostle_n use_v the_o future_a tense_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o for_o these_o three_o reason_n first_o to_o show_v the_o order_n and_o method_n between_o this_o life_n and_o the_o former_a death_n because_o this_o life_n in_o nature_n though_o not_o in_o time_n be_v after_o our_o death_n with_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v in_o nature_n the_o introduce_v of_o habit_n in_o nature_n be_v after_o the_o expelling_a of_o privation_n as_o the_o enlighten_v of_o the_o air_n in_o nature_n be_v after_o the_o dispel_v of_o darkness_n second_o the_o apostle_n use_v the_o future_a tense_n because_o though_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n be_v here_o begin_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o consummate_v till_o afterward_o in_o which_o respect_n the_o apostle_n say_v we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o he_o make_v this_o life_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o compliment_n and_o consummation_n a_o act_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o in_o the_o creed_n i_o believe_v the_o life_n everlasting_a three_o because_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n do_v not_o fade_v as_o the_o natural_a life_n perrish_v but_o it_o be_v a_o endure_a life_n as_o christ_n be_v once_o raise_v he_o die_v no_o more_o verse_n 9_o so_o every_o member_n of_o christ_n he_o that_o be_v once_o quicken_v and_o raise_v with_o christ_n from_o sin_n he_o die_v no_o more_o so_o say_v christ_n joh._n 5.24_o he_o that_o believe_v have_v eternal_a life_n what_o have_v every_o one_o that_o believe_v life_n eternal_a yes_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v have_v life_n eternal_a in_o hope_n and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o grace_n because_o he_o have_v that_o life_n for_o the_o present_a that_o do_v not_o fade_v and_o perish_v but_o endure_v to_o eternity_n very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o he_o that_o hear_v my_o word_n and_o believe_v in_o he_o that_o send_v i_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o shall_v not_o come_v into_o condemnation_n which_o express_v the_o former_a now_o what_o this_o life_n of_o grace_n be_v this_o spiritual_a life_n will_v appear_v by_o compare_v it_o with_o spiritual_a death_n it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o opposite_n be_v set_v together_o as_o to_o impugn_v and_o fight_v against_o the_o nature_n one_o of_o another_o so_o to_o discover_v the_o nature_n one_o of_o another_o now_o spiritual_a death_n as_o the_o natural_a include_v two_o thing_n first_o a_o separation_n from_o the_o fountain_n and_o principle_n of_o life_n and_o as_o a_o consequent_a of_o that_o a_o privation_n of_o the_o faculty_n and_o act_n of_o life_n look_v what_o the_o soul_n be_v to_o the_o body_n the_o same_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v that_o that_o enlivens_fw-la and_o quicken_v it_o so_o say_v christ_n 6.63_o joh._n 6.63_o joh._n 6.63_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n that_o quicken_v now_o look_v as_o upon_o the_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n the_o body_n die_v so_o upon_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n from_o the_o soul_n the_o soul_n die_v so_o it_o be_v in_o adam_n when_o by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n he_o have_v cut_v off_o and_o separate_v himself_o from_o the_o fountain_n and_o principle_n of_o life_n he_o die_v spiritual_o i_o say_v as_o when_o the_o soul_n that_o

act_n of_o life_n so_o upon_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n from_o the_o soul_n there_o follow_v a_o deprivation_n of_o the_o habit_n and_o act_n of_o grace_n the_o gift_n and_o habit_n of_o grace_n be_v as_o the_o faculty_n the_o act_n and_o operation_n of_o grace_n be_v as_o the_o act_n of_o those_o faculty_n and_o as_o upon_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o

deprivation_n of_o the_o habit_n and_o act_n of_o grace_n if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o spiritual_a life_n include_v two_o thing_n first_o the_o have_v of_o the_o spring_n and_o fountain_n of_o life_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o a_o union_n of_o it_o to_o the_o soul_n second_o the_o have_v the_o habit_n and_o act_n of_o this_o spiritual_a life_n first_o the_o have_v of_o the_o principle_n of_o spiritual_a life_n the_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o our_o soul_n for_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o there_o be_v a_o quicken_a spirit_n unless_o it_o be_v unite_v to_o we_o for_o look_v as_o
when_o a_o man_n die_v simile_n simile_n the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n and_o the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n continue_v still_o but_o there_o be_v no_o life_n because_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o unite_v to_o

that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n second_o where_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v as_o a_o consequent_a of_o the_o other_o there_o follow_v the_o faculty_n and_o act_n of_o life_n the_o habitual_a

to_o show_v the_o necessary_a conjunction_n of_o this_o spiritual_a life_n that_o i_o have_v explain_v in_o the_o kind_n and_o nature_n of_o it_o with_o spiritual_a death_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o which_o hupotheticall_a proposition_n or_o supposition_n afford_v we_o this_o catagoricall_a position_n that_o those_o

this_o be_v suppose_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v in_o effect_n they_o that_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n shall_v live_v with_o he_o or_o they_o that_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n shall_v live_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n look_v as_o it_o be_v with_o christ_n so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v dead_a rose_n again_o and_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o rise_v

be_v dead_a with_o christ_n must_v needs_o live_v with_o christ_n death_n can_v hold_v he_o not_o death_n in_o sin_n the_o apostle_n affirm_v as_o much_o in_o this_o chapter_n verse_n 5._o for_o as_o we_o be_v plant_v into_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n so_o we_o shall_v be_v also_o into_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o resurrection_n if_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n into_o his_o death_n there_o be_v our_o death_n with_o christ_n we_o shall_v be_v also_o in_o his_o resurrection_n there_o be_v the_o conjunction_n and_o connexion_n of_o our_o life_n with_o christ_n where_o the_o apostle_n not_o only_o aver_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o former_a proposition_n but_o withal_o insinuate_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o those_o that_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n shall_v also_o into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n why_o because_o they_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n as_o a_o plant_n that_o be_v graft_v into_o a_o stock_n it_o partake_v of_o the_o whole_a virtue_n of_o the_o stock_n so_o every_o member_n of_o christ_n he_o that_o by_o faith_n be_v graft_v into_o christ_n and_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n death_n to_o the_o mortification_n of_o sin_n that_o man_n also_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n to_o the_o revive_n and_o quicken_a of_o he_o to_o a_o new_a life_n of_o grace_n the_o ground_n of_o it_o be_v this_o first_o to_o whosoever_o christ_n communicate_v himself_o he_o communicate_v himself_o whole_o to_o whosoever_o he_o impart_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n for_o the_o kill_n of_o sin_n to_o he_o he_o impart_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n to_o revive_v and_o quicken_v he_o to_o a_o new_a life_n of_o grace_n if_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n we_o shall_v be_v also_o into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n because_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o he_o every_o plant_n partake_v of_o the_o whole_a virtue_n of_o the_o root_n and_o by_o consequent_a we_o partake_v as_o well_o of_o the_o quicken_a virtue_n of_o christ_n to_o raise_v we_o to_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n as_o of_o his_o crucify_a virtue_n to_o kill_v sin_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v from_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o the_o one_o without_o the_o other_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o why_o because_o death_n with_o christ_n be_v insufficient_a unless_o we_o live_v with_o christ_n philosophy_n say_v that_o nature_n do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a much_o less_o do_v christ_n the_o god_n of_o nature_n now_o as_o in_o christ_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o he_o to_o die_v for_o we_o unless_o he_o have_v rise_v again_o so_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a and_o ineffectual_a for_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n to_o die_v to_o sin_n if_o they_o be_v not_o quicken_v to_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o that_o death_n to_o sin_n indeed_o deface_v the_o image_n of_o sin_n but_o it_o do_v not_o renew_v in_o we_o the_o image_n of_o god_n now_o it_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n that_o make_v we_o fit_a and_o capable_a of_o eternal_a life_n it_o be_v true_a the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n give_v we_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n but_o our_o own_o inherent_a righteousness_n qualify_v we_o and_o dispose_v and_o make_v we_o fit_a and_o capable_a of_o it_o for_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v god_n flesh_n and_o blood_n shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n by_o mortify_v of_o sin_n we_o cease_v to_o be_v sinner_n by_o mortify_v of_o sin_n we_o have_v the_o image_n of_o satan_n deface_v but_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v not_o renew_v in_o we_o therefore_o beside_o our_o death_n with_o christ_n there_o be_v require_v our_o life_n with_o christ_n that_o so_o beside_o the_o deface_a of_o satan_n image_n we_o may_v have_v the_o image_n of_o god_n renew_v that_o we_o may_v be_v capable_a of_o eternal_a life_n and_o be_v qualify_v and_o dispose_v and_o make_v fit_a to_o partake_v of_o the_o inheritance_n with_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n the_o three_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o opposition_n between_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n philosophy_n tell_v we_o that_o in_o those_o opposite_n that_o be_v

health_n and_o sickness_n be_v immediate_a object_n a_o man_n must_v either_o be_v sick_a or_o well_o now_o that_o which_o remove_v sickness_n restore_v health_n that_o that_o expel_v darkness_n out_o of_o the_o air_n it_o bring_v light_a now_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n and_o grace_n be_v thus_o opposite_a that_o that_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n then_o it_o must_v of_o necessity_n bring_v with_o it_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n if_o christ_n mortify_v sin_n in_o we_o and_o take_v away_o the_o life_n and_o vigour_n of_o sin_n christ_n of_o necessity_n must_v bring_v into_o the_o same_o

bring_v in_o health_n this_o shall_v suffice_v for_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o point_n i_o come_v to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o use_v if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n to_o sin_n as_o christ_n die_v for_o sin_n those_o shall_v live_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n if_o it_o be_v so_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o

of_o this_o death_n to_o sin_n and_o this_o life_n to_o grace_n which_o be_v christ_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o if_o we_o be_v

this_o that_o as_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n so_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n they_o both_o proceed_v from_o christ_n christ_n be_v the_o author_n and_o the_o producer_n of_o both_o so_o say_v saint_n

three_o as_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o so_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v that_o christ_n shall_v die_v for_o god_n have_v no_o purpose_n to_o redeem_v man_n and_o

of_o god_n in_o our_o salvation_n and_o redemption_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o cry_v out_o with_o the_o apostle_n oh_o the_o deepness_n and_o riches_n of_o the_o knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n how_o unsearchable_a be_v his_o judgement_n and_o his_o way_n past_o find_v out_o it_o be_v true_a i_o deny_v not_o the_o print_n and_o footstep_n of_o the_o way_n of_o god_n in_o the_o creation_n the_o heathen_n themselves_o discover_v by_o the_o dark_a and_o dim_a light_n of_o reason_n the_o heathen_a can_v discern_v it_o in_o the_o creation_n but_o for_o the_o print_n of_o his_o footstep_n in_o redemption_n man_n and_o angel_n can_v not_o conceive_v how_o infinite_a justice_n and_o infinite_a mercy_n shall_v come_v together_o how_o sinner_n shall_v die_v eternal_o and_o be_v save_v

the_o torment_n of_o the_o damn_a in_o hell_n as_o the_o torment_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n for_o sin_n sure_o those_o sin_n must_v needs_o be_v great_a that_o can_v not_o be_v expiate_v but_o at_o so_o dear_a a_o rate_n as_o the_o shed_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n i_o come_v not_o to_o dispute_v here_o as_o the_o school_n nice_o and_o curious_o and_o unprofitable_o whether_o god_n

of_o god_n and_o to_o say_v this_o god_n can_v do_v as_o he_o say_v to_o the_o sea_n hither_o shall_v thou_o go_v and_o here_o thou_o shall_v stay_v thy_o proud_a wave_n shall_v go_v no_o further_o it_o be_v not_o for_o man_n to_o say_v so_o to_o god_n wisdom_n and_o power_n this_o god_n can_v do_v and_o he_o can_v do_v no_o more_o but_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o thus_o much_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v more_o precious_a and_o dear_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o his_o father_n then_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o die_v a_o curse_a death_n if_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n can_v be_v so_o well_o and_o so_o convenient_o accomplish_v otherwise_o i_o can_v think_v but_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v more_o precious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o his_o father_n then_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o

the_o satisfaction_n for_o man_n sin_n it_o be_v such_o a_o work_n as_o can_v not_o have_v be_v perform_v but_o by_o the_o finger_n of_o god_n man_n nor_o angel_n can_v not_o do_v it_o they_o may_v

they_o can_v not_o undergo_v the_o punishment_n of_o our_o sin_n which_o be_v infinite_a there_o be_v a_o infinite_a punishment_n due_a to_o our_o sin_n because_o we_o have_v offend_v infinite_a
