and_o i_o reason_n thus_o all_o the_o sorrow_n that_o come_v upon_o our_o saviour_n they_o come_v by_o reason_n in_o this_o cup_n that_o be_v from_o these_o sorrow_n and_o misery_n that_o he_o be_v to_o bear_v both_o in_o the_o agony_n in_o the_o garden_n and_o upon_o the_o cross_n now_o that_o cup_n which_o bring_v astonishment_n in_o upon_o his_o soul_n and_o fill_v it_o full_a of_o anguish_n and_o drive_v he_o to_o a_o amaze_n and_o not_o only_o to_o weep_v bitter_o but_o to_o trickle_v down_o drop_n of_o clod_v blood_n that_o cup_n must_v needs_o be_v more_o than_o the_o pain_n of_o a_o

wrest_v clod_v blood_n from_o his_o body_n therefore_o this_o be_v more_o than_o natural_a death_n the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v undeniable_a namely_o that_o the_o agony_n come_v from_o this_o cup_n therefore_o the_o cup_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o sorrow_n and_o grief_n and_o tear_n but_o to_o think_v that_o natural_a death_n shall_v drive_v our_o saviour_n to_o this_o

bear_v much_o more_o it_o be_v unreasonable_a for_o any_o man_n to_o think_v so_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v more_o than_o the_o pain_n of_o a_o natural_a death_n in_o the_o suffering_n of_o our_o saviour_n he_o that_o give_v his_o saint_n grace_n to_o bear_v these_o pain_n of_o the_o natural_a death_n he_o have_v much_o more_o grace_n in_o himself_o to_o bear_v they_o and_o to_o come_v

he_o have_v so_o deep_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n of_o affliction_n he_o say_v now_o it_o be_v finish_v that_o be_v now_o the_o fierce_a indignation_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v over_o take_v a_o little_a

that_o may_v be_v alter_v and_o change_v as_o the_o debt_n or_o punishment_n be_v full_o suffer_v or_o not_o suffer_v as_o for_o example_n the_o time_n of_o a_o man_n lie_v in_o prison_n be_v no_o

saviour_n may_v abate_v of_o the_o punishment_n by_o the_o same_o right_n the_o dignity_n of_o his_o person_n may_v as_o well_o take_v it_o quite_o away_o if_o one_o drop_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n will_v save_v all_o the_o world_n than_o what_o need_v christ_n to_o have_v suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o death_n for_o if_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o person_n may_v free_v he_o from_o the_o one_o it_o may_v free_v he_o from_o the_o other_o also_o but_o the_o law_n and_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v whatsoever_o christ_n do_v in_o his_o wisdom_n suffer_v and_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o superfluous_a and_o beside_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o person_n be_v to_o far_o from_o free_v he_o from_o the_o punishment_n that_o it_o fit_v he_o to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n it_o exempt_v he_o not_o from_o the_o punishment_n but_o it_o furnish_v he_o with_o ability_n to_o bear_v it_o as_o he_o must_v be_v man_n that_o he_o may_v suffer_v finite_o so_o he_o must_v be_v god_n that_o must_v satisfy_v infinite_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v two_o thing_n first_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o punishment_n as_o may_v be_v suitable_a to_o the_o wrong_n of_o the_o law_n by_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n that_o be_v a_o infinite_a punishment_n second_o the_o person_n must_v be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o may_v be_v regard_v therefore_o he_o must_v be_v such_o a_o person_n as_o must_v be_v able_a to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n and_o to_o satisfy_v infinite_o and_o to_o come_v forth_o from_o under_o it_o therefore_o the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v god_n do_v not_o dispense_v with_o the_o punishment_n but_o enable_v he_o to_o suffer_v it_o as_o the_o infinite_a wrath_n of_o god_n be_v express_v and_o show_v upon_o man_n by_o reason_n of_o sin_n in_o lay_v on_o this_o punishment_n both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n so_o the_o infinite_a suffering_n of_o christ_n undergo_v they_o both_o therefore_o that_o which_o divine_a justice_n require_v and_o without_o which_o it_o be_v not_o satisfy_v that_o he_o must_v suffer_v but_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n do_v require_v it_o and_o without_o it_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n be_v not_o satisfy_v and_o therefore_o christ_n do_v suffer_v both_o object_n to_o this_o argument_n the_o jesuit_n reply_n it_o need_v not_o say_v they_o that_o that_o curse_n which_o adam_n do_v deserve_v shall_v be_v suffer_v by_o the_o second_o adam_n which_o be_v christ_n for_o say_v they_o god_n may_v have_v pardon_v all_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n without_o any_o satisfaction_n or_o else_o by_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o power_n he_o can_v have_v provide_v another_o way_n and_o therefore_o if_o christ_n suffer_v but_o in_o part_n it_o may_v suffice_v answer_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v a_o foolish_a nice_a and_o silly_a curiosity_n to_o inquire_v of_o god_n absolute_a power_n what_o he_o may_v have_v do_v and_o what_o he_o have_v power_n to_o do_v when_o we_o see_v what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o as_o he_o will_v save_v the_o humble_a merciful_o so_o he_o will_v preserve_v his_o justice_n in_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n esay_n 53.10_o the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v prosper_v in_o his_o hand_n and_o psalm_n 40.8_o i_o desire_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n oh_o my_o god_n it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o christ_n shall_v come_v and_o shall_v suffer_v for_o our_o sin_n he_o have_v reveal_v what_o his_o will_n be_v and_o it_o be_v folly_n to_o inquire_v what_o god_n may_v do_v when_o we_o see_v what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o beside_o this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v a_o everlasting_a truth_n that_o none_o of_o all_o the_o attribute_n of_o god_n can_v ever_o enterfeere_a or_o cross_a one_o another_o it_o can_v be_v for_o then_o god_n shall_v not_o procure_v nor_o maintain_v his_o own_o glory_n for_o when_o he_o shall_v procure_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n he_o shall_v wrong_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o when_o he_o shall_v procure_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o mercy_n he_o shall_v wrong_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n must_v be_v preserve_v as_o well_o as_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o mercy_n magnify_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n can_v wrong_v justice_n nor_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n can_v overpower_v mercy_n therefore_o hence_o i_o infer_v thus_o much_o if_o there_o be_v no_o mean_n in_o the_o world_n whereby_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n which_o have_v receive_v wrong_n can_v be_v satisfy_v but_o only_o by_o the_o suffering_n of_o he_o who_o be_v god_n and_o man_n than_o it_o be_v against_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o against_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n and_o against_o their_o glory_n and_o dignity_n to_o devise_v another_o way_n or_o mean_n to_o pardon_v sin_n without_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o divine_a justice_n it_o be_v against_o his_o glory_n power_n and_o wisdom_n to_o wrong_v either_o justice_n or_o mercy_n for_o he_o shall_v either_o have_v wrong_v mercy_n in_o not_o pardon_v or_o else_o wrong_a justice_n in_o not_o punish_v of_o christ_n therefore_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o way_n to_o do_v it_o but_o only_o by_o the_o death_n of_o he_o who_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n than_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n of_o redemption_n but_o this_o way_n for_o a_o infinite_a justice_n be_v wrong_v there_o be_v no_o way_n else_o to_o satisfy_v a_o infinite_a justice_n but_o by_o the_o suffering_n of_o he_o who_o be_v infinite_a and_o that_o be_v only_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o there_o be_v no_o more_o infinite_n in_o the_o world_n i_o will_v wind_v it_o up_o thus_o that_o punishment_n which_o be_v include_v in_o the_o curse_n and_o which_o be_v deserve_v by_o the_o first_o adam_n that_o be_v suffer_v by_o christ_n the_o second_o adam_n but_o the_o punishment_n both_o of_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v the_o punishment_n include_v in_o the_o curse_n and_o deserve_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n therefore_o it_o be_v bear_v by_o the_o second_o adam_n as_o certain_o as_o it_o be_v deserve_v by_o the_o first_o adam_n reason_n 3_o the_o three_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o office_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o place_n which_o he_o undergo_v because_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v our_o surety_n and_o our_o sin_n be_v charge_v upon_o he_o and_o he_o become_v paymaster_n so_o that_o the_o covenant_n which_o he_o have_v make_v with_o god_n the_o father_n bind_v he_o to_o it_o and_o his_o faithfulness_n and_o truth_n tie_v he_o to_o it_o nay_o he_o take_v all_o our_o sin_n upon_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v satisfy_v for_o thou_o if_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v our_o surety_n and_o take_v all_o our_o sin_n upon_o he_o by_o imputation_n and_o the_o debt_n be_v make_v he_o than_o the_o payment_n also_o must_v be_v discharge_v by_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o certain_o all_o your_o pride_n and_o stubbornness_n etc._n etc._n they_o be_v all_o charge_v upon_o our_o saviour_n and_o set_v upon_o his_o soore_n and_o lay_v upon_o his_o back_n therefore_o he_o must_v suffer_v for_o all_o because_o he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o all_o so_o the_o issue_n of_o the_o point_n be_v this_o unless_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v suffer_v both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n justice_n have_v not_o be_v so_o full_o satisfy_v but_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v both_o and_o the_o curse_n include_v both_o and_o therefore_o christ_n suffer_v both_o and_o have_v fulfil_v whatsoever_o be_v or_o can_v be_v require_v by_o divine_a justice_n now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o use_n something_o must_v be_v say_v to_o justify_v the_o riches_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n the_o first_o use_n shall_v be_v this_o use_v 1_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o word_n of_o confutation_n
