which Law was ingrauen in Adams hart Finally we may all that are descended of Adams race cry out as it is in the 130. psalme Psal 130.3 If thou O Lorde straitlye markest iniquities O Lorde who shall stand Qu. What then is the state and condition of you and all other through your sinne in Adam and your owne daily sins by reason of your corruption of nature drawne from Adam An. Most woofull truly miserable is mine and the state of all men else in themselues because of sin for it is written in the 5. to the Romaines Rom. 5.18 By the offence of one the fault came on all men to condemnatiō And againe in the 2. to the Romaines Tribulation anguish shal be vpon the soule of euery man that doth euill Rom. 2.9 Qu. Set forth yet more fully the punishment of sinne and the state of condemnation Qu. In the 30. chapter of Esai it is said Tophet which by a borowed speach is Hell is prepared of old Esai 30.33 it is euen prepared for the king he hath made it deepe and large the burning thereof is fire and much wood the breath of the Lord like a riuer of brimstone dooth kindle it In the 66. of the same Prophet Esai 66.24 it is also said And they that is the godly shall go forth and looke vpō the carcasses of the men that haue transgressed against me for their worme shall not die neyther shall their fire be quenched and they shal be an abhorring to all flesh In the 8. of Mathew it is saide Math 8 12. The children of the kingdome that is the Iewes shal be cast out into vtter darkenesse where shal be weeping and gnashing of teeth In the 21. of the Reuelation it is written that The fearefull vnbeleeuing Reuel 21 8. and abhominable shal haue their portion in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death In consideration of which extreme punishment the wicked at the comming of Christ shal say as it is in the 6. of the Reuelation to the mountains to the rockes Fall vpon vs Reuel 6 ℣ se 16 17. hide vs from the presence of him that sitteth on the throne and from the wrath of the Lambe for the great day of his wrath is come and who canne stand Qu. O most wofull depth of miserie and cruell calamitie because of sinne but is there no meane to auoyde this woe Ans One onely meanes to escape is prouided by God Acts 4 12. Qu. Shew what it is Ans God straightway after Adams fall raised him and all other his elect vp againe vnto hope by the promise of a sauiour to vanquish the power of Sathan to set the enthralled frée as appeareth in Genesis 3. where it is denoūced against Sathan Gen 3 15. that The seede of the woman should bruse his head Qu. Did any deserte of Adam mooue God hereunto An. None at all It was onely Gods loue pitie and compassion that procured this saluation As it is written in the 3 of Iohns gospel Iohn 3 16. God so loued the world that he gaue his onely begotten sonne that euery one that beleeueth in him might not perishe but haue eternall life And againe in Romans 5. Rom 5. ver 8 But God setteth out his loue towards vs seeing that while we were yet sinners yea and a little after Enemies Christ dyed for vs. Qu. What natures were in Christ An. Two The nature of man and the nature of God in one person As it is proued by these words in Romanes 9. Rom. 9 4. 1 Iohn 5 20. Of whome that is of the Isralites concerning the flesh Christ came who is God ouer all blessed for euer Qu. Why was it needfull that our Redeemer should be man An. That God might satisfie his Iustice in punishing man as he threatned if his commandement should be broken when he gaue it first to Adam for that which man had offended Which thing the Apostle séemeth to say in Hebrews 2. where he saith Heb 2 verse 14 15 16 17 Forasmuch as the children were partakers of flesh and bloud he also him selfe tooke part with them that he might destroy through death him that had the power of death that is the diuell and that he might deliuer all them which for feare of death were all their l●fe time subiect vnto bondage And Peter sayth in the third chapiter of his first Epistle 1. Pet. 3 18. Christ hath once suffered for sinnes the iust for the vniust to bring vs to good Qu. Why was it necessary that our redeemer should be God An. To the intent that the infirmitie of his manhood might be sustained by his Godhead that so he might ouercome death the sorrows of death And therefore it is saide in Romans ● that He was declared mightily to be the sonne of God Rom 1 4. touching the spirit of sanctification by his resurrection from the dead And againe the same Apostle saith in 2. 1 Cor 13 4. Corinthians chapiter 13. For although hee was crucified according to his infirmitie that is his Manhoode yet doth he lyue by the power of God If hee had béene but onely man he could not haue ouercome death and therefore Peter in the third chapiter of his first epistle ascribeth the quickning of Christ that is the raising of his body frō death to the spirit 1. Pet. 3.18 that is to the diuine power Q. Was Christ himselfe who was borne of a sinfull woman free from the contagion and infection of sinne You alleadged out of Iob the 14. chapiter That none could bryng that is pure out of filthynesse An. If Christ had not béene frée from the infection of sin be had béene vnméete to haue ransomed and deliuered other there from And therefore it is saide in the 7. to the Hebrewes that Such an high Priest it becomes vs to haue Heb. 7.26 as is holy harmlesse vndefiled seperate from sinners made higher then the heauens And in the fift of the 2. to the Corinthians Paule saith He was made sinne for vs which knew no sinne 2. Cor 5 21. And therefore to the intent he might bée frée from sinne he was conceiued in the wombe of the virgine Luke 1 35. as appeareth in the first of Luke by the holy ghost Q. Doe you thinke that the bodilye death which Christ did suffer was sufficient to deliuer all mankinde from the punishment due both to their bodies and soules A. Notwithstanding that the Scripture oftentimes ascribeth for giuenes of sinnes our redemption to the shedding of his bloud as in the first to the Ephesians By whom we haue redemption through his bloud euen the forgiuenes of sins Ephes 1.7 And in the first chap. of the first epistle of Peter Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things as siluer and gold 1. Pet. 1. ℣ se 18 19. frō your vaine
