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

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

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 and_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 then_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 must_v they_o 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

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 prepiriation_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

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

it_o be_v too_o general_a a_o unhappiness_n among_o the_o professor_n of_o christianity_n that_o they_o be_v apt_a to_o cloak_v their_o own_o active_a and_o passive_a disobedience_n with_o the_o active_a and_o passive_a obedience_n of_o christ_n the_o first_o part_n of_o justification_n we_o do_v reverent_o and_o humble_o acknowledge_v be_v only_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n nothing_o we_o can_v do_v though_o by_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v able_a to_o cancel_v old_a debt_n or_o wipe_v out_o old_a score_n it_o be_v the_o
