A97227	Vnbeleevers no subjects of iustification, nor of mystical vnion to Christ, being the sum of a sermon preached at New Sarum, with a vindication of it from the objections, and calumniations cast upon it by Mr. William Eyre, in his Vindiciæ justificationis. Together with animadversions upon the said book, and a refutation of that anti-sidian, and anti-evangelical errour asserted therein: viz. the justification of infidels, or the justification of a sinner before, and without faith. Wherein also the conditional necessity, and instrumentality of faith unto justification, together with the consistency of it, with the freness of Gods grace, is explained, confirmed, and vindicated from the exceptions of the said Mr. Eyre, his arguments answertd [sic], his authorities examined, and brought in against himself. By T. Warren minister of the Gospel at Houghton in Hampshire.	Warren, Thomas, 1616 or 17-1694.	1654 (1654)	Wing W980; Thomason E733_10; ESTC R206901	226,180	282

the_o true_a key_n to_o unlock_v this_o and_o to_o show_v we_o who_o be_v there_o call_v his_o child_n for_o these_o that_o be_v call_v child_n be_v call_v brethren_n in_o the_o 11_o verse_n and_o the_o same_o person_n be_v understand_v without_o all_o question_n and_o who_o be_v his_o brethren_n why_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v for_o both_o he_o that_o sanctifi_v and_o they_o that_o be_v

faith_n therefore_o not_o a_o child_n 1._o the_o scope_n of_o the_o place_n be_v this_o the_o apostle_n be_v comfort_v the_o believe_a hebrew_n against_o the_o scandal_n of_o the_o cross_n to_o which_o the_o apostle_n answer_v in_o v._o 9_o 1._o that_o he_o be_v subject_v unto_o death_n for_o our_o sake_n not_o for_o his_o own_o therefore_o his_o cross_n shall_v not_o offend_v we_o 2._o that_o he_o do_v but_o taste_v of_o death_n he_o be_v but_o a_o little_a while_n under_o it_o 3._o it_o be_v be_v by_o the_o special_a grace_n of_o god_n that_o his_o death_n for_o a_o short_a time_n shall_v stand_v for_o our_o eternal_a death_n deserve_v therefore_o we_o shall_v rather_o glorious_o esteem_v of_o his_o suffering_n then_o be_v offend_v 2._o he_o give_v a_o second_o reason_n in_o the_o 10_o verse_n it_o make_v for_o god_n glory_n as_o well_o as_o for_o our_o salvation_n for_o it_o behove_v he_o for_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n and_o by_o who_o in_o bring_v many_o son_n to_o glory_n to_o make_v the_o captain_n of_o our_o salvation_n perfect_a through_o suffer_v in_o v._o 11._o he_o give_v a_o account_n how_o christ_n can_v die_v and_o how_o this_o can_v be_v accept_v in_o our_o stead_n he_o answer_v because_o that_o he_o be_v one_o of_o our_o kin_n and_o nature_n now_o lest_o it_o shall_v therefore_o be_v think_v that_o all_o be_v redeem_v because_o all_o partake_v in_o the_o community_n of_o nature_n with_o christ_n as_o man_n he_o show_v who_o indeed_o be_v his_o kindred_n brethren_n for_o who_o he_o die_v they_o be_v sanctify_v once_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v and_o he_o that_o sanctifi_v be_v all_o of_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v christ_n die_v for_o they_o that_o be_v one_o with_o he_o now_o none_o be_v one_o with_o he_o but_o such_o they_o be_v not_o only_a all_o of_o one_o common_a lump_n but_o of_o the_o same_o body_n and_o have_v the_o same_o god_n for_o their_o father_n hence_o if_o none_o be_v unite_v but_o sanctify_a one_o and_o if_o christ_n will_v claim_v kindred_n with_o none_o but_o sanctify_a one_o than_o none_o but_o believer_n be_v his_o brethren_n and_o child_n now_o as_o to_o your_o argument_n that_o they_o can_v not_o be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o of_o christ_n at_o the_o same_o time_n i_o retort_v it_o upon_o you_o and_o say_v therefore_o it_o be_v evident_a they_o be_v not_o christ_n child_n immediate_o from_o the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n for_o than_o they_o can_v not_o be_v child_n of_o wrath_n which_o yet_o the_o apostle_n express_o affirm_v of_o the_o elect_a ephesian_n before_o regeneration_n thus_o the_o captain_n of_o the_o lifeguard_n of_o his_o opinion_n lie_v bleed_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o he_o do_v oppose_v second_o if_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v the_o payment_n of_o our_o debt_n and_o a_o full_a satisfaction_n for_o all_o our_o iniquity_n than_o be_v it_o his_o will_n that_o our_o

satisfaction_n for_o our_o iniquity_n ergo._n i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n of_o the_o major_a proposition_n which_o he_o endeavour_v to_o prove_v because_o say_v he_o it_o be_v unjust_a that_o a_o debt_n when_o it_o be_v pay_v shall_v be_v charge_v upon_o the_o surety_n or_o principal_a i_o answer_v if_o it_o have_v be_v the_o intention_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n that_o the_o payment_n shall_v have_v procure_v a_o immediate_a discharge_n it_o be_v unjust_a but_o that_o rest_v to_o be_v prove_v and_o will_v while_o the_o world_n stand_v we_o deny_v not_o the_o value_n of_o the_o price_n or_o satisfaction_n but_o that_o god_n or_o christ_n intend_v it_o for_o a_o present_a discharge_n 1._o because_o christ_n death_n though_o it_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o only_a cause_n of_o justification_n 2._o christ_n be_v god_n servant_n in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n and_o if_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o limit_v this_o benefit_n till_o faith_n it_o behove_v christ_n as_o mediator_n to_o obey_v 3._o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n death_n be_v not_o to_o be_v value_v only_o by_o the_o intrinsical_a value_n of_o it_o but_o by_o the_o constitution_n and_o acceptation_n of_o god_n it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o grace_n he_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o grace_n to_o christ_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v mediator_n that_o the_o suffering_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n unite_v to_o the_o divine_a person_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v accept_v as_o a_o ransom_n for_o we_o from_o eternal_a death_n hence_o christ_n death_n be_v not_o a_o act_n of_o pure_a justice_n but_o of_o justice_n mix_v with_o grace_n and_o be_v so_o far_o accept_v as_o the_o divine_a will_n of_o the_o father_n please_v as_o we_o see_v in_o deny_v the_o fruit_n of_o it_o to_o reprobate_n and_o limit_v it_o to_o the_o elect_n which_o may_v have_v ransom_v all_o and_o why_o be_v it_o any_o more_o injustice_n to_o have_v it_o limit_v for_o a_o time_n by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o application_n to_o the_o elect_n when_o it_o shall_v certain_o be_v do_v then_o to_o have_v it_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n absolute_o limit_v to_o they_o alone_o hence_o christ_n death_n be_v so_o far_o meritorious_a as_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v to_o accept_v it_o hence_o god_n will_v must_v not_o be_v regulate_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o time_n &_o manner_n of_o application_n or_o else_o it_o must_v be_v injustice_n in_o god_n which_o be_v a_o harsh_a expression_n in_o you_o but_o christ_n death_n must_v be_v regulate_v by_o god_n will_n in_o accept_v it_o and_o i_o have_v else_o where_o give_v sufficient_a reason_n why_o god_n do_v limit_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o until_o faith_n and_o from_o what_o go_v before_o it_o follow_v christ_n death_n be_v not_o solutio_fw-la ejusdem_fw-la but_o tantidem_fw-la for_o than_o it_o will_v have_v produce_v a_o immediate_a

by_o faith_n 3_o if_o nothing_o hinder_v the_o reconciliation_n of_o the_o elect_a with_o god_n but_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n than_o the_o law_n be_v satisfy_v it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o

and_o deny_v it_o though_o nothing_o do_v hinder_v by_o way_n of_o guilt_n as_o a_o cause_n of_o separation_n for_o want_n of_o satisfaction_n yet_o something_o do_v hinder_v by_o way_n of_o
