the_o matter_n which_o each_o scripture_n speak_v of_o have_v promise_v this_o caution_n i_o will_v now_o close_o with_o the_o word_n themselves_o and_o before_o i_o declare_v what_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o reason_n the_o clear_n of_o the_o word_n by_o some_o reason_n i_o will_v propound_v some_o reason_n show_v why_o we_o can_v understand_v they_o according_a to_o their_o sense_n first_o i_o do_v not_o read_v any_o where_o in_o scripture_n that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o taste_n of_o death_n but_o suffering_n bruising_n wound_n oppressing_n travelling_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o the_o like_a second_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v then_o as_o i_o conceive_v there_o will_v be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n in_o the_o word_n for_o than_o they_o will_v run_v thus_o to_o wit_n we_o see_v jesus_n through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v suffer_v death_n mind_n now_o he_o suffer_v death_n that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v death_n will_v not_o here_o be_v a_o needless_a repetition_n and_o much_o harshness_n three_o if_o we_o take_v the_o word_n taste_v in_o this_o place_n for_o suffer_v of_o death_n then_o as_o i_o conceive_v it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n undergo_v a_o second_o suffer_v of_o death_n to_o wit_n a_o suffering_n of_o death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n through_o that_o one_o and_o bitter_a suffering_n of_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o word_n run_v thus_o we_o see_v he_o through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o shall_v taste_v death_n if_o therefore_o by_o the_o taste_n of_o death_n in_o this_o place_n we_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o suffer_v death_n after_o he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n and_o this_o be_v so_o assure_v and_o false_a that_o every_o one_o will_v reject_v it_o four_o to_o come_v now_o to_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a meaning_n of_o these_o word_n i_o conceive_v by_o his_o taste_a death_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v his_o suffering_n of_o death_n but_o a_o effect_n or_o fruit_n of_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n and_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o then_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o word_n taste_v death_n to_o be_v a_o sweeten_v or_o relish_v of_o death_n a_o make_v of_o death_n tasteful_a savoury_a sweet_a useful_a and_o gainful_a he_o taste_v death_n that_o be_v he_o make_v it_o tasteful_a sweet_a and_o savoury_a and_o so_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o effect_n of_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n and_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n that_o be_v he_o through_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n be_v crown_v with_o glory_n have_v according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n make_v death_n tasteful_a reader_n although_o the_o word_n all_o in_o some_o scripture_n upon_o some_o occasion_n be_v to_o 〈◊〉_d take_v 〈◊〉_d all_o person_n froâ—_n first_o last_v yâ—â—_n in_o this_o 〈◊〉_d scriptureâ—_n it_o be_v to_o bâ—_n understand_v witâ—_n a_o

the_o sting_n and_o bitterness_n thereof_o and_o make_v it_o sweet_a and_o wholesome_a and_o then_o by_o all_z in_o this_o place_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v every_o person_n but_o those_o many_o son_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o follow_a verse_n even_o those_o who_o he_o call_v brethren_n and_o child_n to_o christ_n in_o the_o 12_o 13_o and_z 14_o verses_z for_o or_o unto_o all_o these_o and_o every_o of_o these_o he_o by_o his_o suffering_n &_o glory_n have_v make_v death_n tasteful_a &_o savoury_a he_o have_v sweeten_v death_n and_o make_v it_o a_o entrance_n or_o passage_n unto_o

so_o it_o agree_v with_o that_o in_o rom_n 4.5_o he_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a there_o meaning_n be_v when_o we_o be_v without_o strength_n and_o altogether_o ungodly_a one_o chtist_n die_v for_o

and_o that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o 8.9.10.11_o verse_n will_v justify_v this_o interpretation_n say_v he_o herein_o iâ—_n the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o while_o we_o be_v sinner_n ungodly_a christ_n die_v for_o we_o that_o be_v we_o be_v in_o ourselves_o before_o god_n justify_v by_o his_o death_n or_o bloodshedding_n for_o so_o it_o be_v say_v in_o

sweet_o depend_v upon_o each_o other_o and_o whereas_o he_o allege_v the_o 15._o verse_n i_o conceive_v it_o do_v right_o and_o excellent_o hold_v forth_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n by_o grace_n which_o be_v by_o one_o man_n jesus_n christ_n be_v much_o more_o and_o have_v abound_v much_o more_o unto_o many_o than_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o that_o

and_o justification_n or_o justification_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n for_o so_o he_o say_v in_o page_n 23._o line_n 7._o i_o answer_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n still_o drive_v at_o be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n by_o grace_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v much_o more_o abound_v above_o the_o offence_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o for_o say_v he_o as_o by_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o one_o man_n judgement_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o condemnation_n that_o be_v it_o come_v powerful_o upon_o they_o even_o so_o by_o that_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n alone_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n that_o be_v it_o come_v glorious_o and_o powerful_o upon_o they_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v how_o weak_o and_o unwarrantable_o he_o allege_v this_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o say_v for_o all_o person_n when_o as_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n speak_v of_o those_o only_a who_o be_v in_o themselves_o before_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n actual_a partaker_n of_o justification_n of_o life_n by_o he_o and_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n here_o mention_v it_o be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n stand_v in_o

life_n it_o be_v the_o same_o justification_n mention_v in_o chapt._n 3.24.26_o chapt._n 4.5_o and_o in_o the_o 4._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n also_o second_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o application_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n unto_o the_o person_n here_o mention_v in_o verse_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o exceed_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o in_o verse_n 16_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unto_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o this_o 18._o ver_fw-la it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o in_o verse_n seventeen_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o justification_n and_o salvation_n here_o mention_v be_v speak_v of_o those_o only_o who_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n those_o who_o receive_v it_o that_o be_v those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v â—_o time_n call_v â—_o gift_n which_o to_o whosoever_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o all_o man_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n we_o can_v neither_o understand_v all_o person_n from_o first_o to_o last_o neither_o can_v his_o distinction_n be_v justify_v from_o hence_o for_o he_o here_o speak_v or_o such_o a_o justification_n of_o life_n as_o come_n upon_o man_n or_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v that_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o to_o justify_v his_o distinction_n i_o shall_v clear_v that_o in_o its_o due_a place_n from_o such_o a_o sense_n and_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n to_o what_o i_o shall_v there_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v the_o first_o of_o john_n 5.10.11.12_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o scripture_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o witness_n in_o himself_o and_o bear_v record_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v his_o gift_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o this_o life_n be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v but_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o therefore_o whosoever_o seek_v for_o life_n and_o salvation_n by_o his_o own_o work_n or_o righteousness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o jesus_n christ_n crucify_v and_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o receive_v or_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n which_o god_n give_v of_o his_o son_n and_o whereas_o he_o think_v to_o strengthen_v his_o distinction_n by_o say_v there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o

hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o by_o the_o world_n in_o this_o scripture_n we_o can_v in_o no_o wise_n understand_v all_o person_n or_o every_o person_n in_o the_o world_n from_o first_o to_o last_o the_o second_o reason_n for_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o word_n from_o that_o corrupt_a sense_n be_v take_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o reconciliation_n which_o be_v here_o speak_v of_o this_o reconciliation_n of_o the_o world_n unto_o himself_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o the_o remission_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n it_o be_v no_o less_o than_o make_v they_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o cod_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o world_n unto_o himself_o he_o say_v in_o the_o very_a next_o word_n not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n unto_o they_o now_o according_a to_o this_o scripture_n not_o to_o have_v sin_n impute_v it_o be_v to_o be_v true_o bless_v and_o therefore_o the_o very_a same_o thing_n which_o david_n in_o the_o 32._o psalm_n call_v the_o not_o impute_v of_o sin_n paul_n in_o rom._n call-leth_a the_o impute_v of_o righteousness_n through_o faith_n in_o christ._n 23_o rom._n 4.11.22.23.24_o james_n â—â—_o 23_o and_o so_o far_o as_o i_o know_v we_o never_o read_v of_o the_o not_o impute_v of_o sin_n or_o the_o impute_v of_o righteousness_n but_o only_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n so_o that_o when_o it_o be_v say_v god_n impute_v not_o their_o sin_n to_o they_o we_o understand_v that_o he_o

in_o this_o place_n to_o signify_v all_o person_n or_o every_o person_n in_o the_o world_n from_o first_o to_o last_o but_o by_o world_n in_o this_o place_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o gentile_n

i_o now_o proceed_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o some_o reason_n propound_v by_o they_o to_o prove_v as_o they_o conceive_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o person_n and_o they_o be_v these_o follow_v first_o because_o say_v they_o christ_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n do_v soteach_v esa_fw-mi 53.6_o john_n 1.29_o and_o 3_o 16_o 17._o and_o 6.51_o and_o 12.47_o 48._o

do_v so_o teach_v and_o as_o for_o the_o scripture_n they_o allege_v to_o prove_v as_o they_o conceive_v their_o opinion_n to_o wit_n esa_n 53.6_o joh._n 1.29_o and_o 3.16_o 17._o and_o 6.51_o and_o 12.47_o 48._o 2_o cor._n 5.14_o 15._o i_o have_v before_o prove_v that_o they_o hold_v forth_o no_o such_o thing_n and_o i_o have_v at_o large_a declare_v the_o natural_a meaning_n of_o each_o of_o they_o and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o in_o this_o place_n concern_v they_o but_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o the_o consideration_n of_o what_o i_o have_v at_o large_a above_o say_v and_o as_o for_o the_o scripture_n 1_o cor._n 15.3_o of_o which_o i_o have_v former_o say_v nothing_o where_o it_o be_v say_v christ_n die_v for_o our_o sin_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n i_o answer_n do_v he_o there_o say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o person_n or_o every_o person_n do_v he_o not_o say_v christ_n die_v for_o our_o sin_n that_o be_v for_o we_o who_o receive_v he_o and_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o stand_v fast_o in_o his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n he_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o he_o as_o he_o plain_o speak_v in_o the_o first_o and_o second_o verse_n this_o be_v that_o gospel_n which_o he_o here_o speak_v of_o and_o reminde_v the_o brethren_n of_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o alone_a way_n whereby_o to_o attain_v unto_o righteousness_n remission_n of_o sin_n and_o salvation_n be_v only_o through_o faith_n in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o stand_v fast_o in_o the_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n so_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o reason_n second_o say_v they_o christ_n require_v his_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n so_o to_o preach_v and_o for_o this_o purpose_n they_o allege_v mat._n 28.18.19_o mark_n 16.15_o luke_n 10.5_o and_o 24.47_o rom._n 16.26_o i_o answer_v christ_n indeed_o command_v his_o disciple_n to_o go_v forth_o unto_o all_o nation_n and_o so_o make_v disciple_n as_o be_v express_v by_o matthew_n and_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o when_o he_o send_v they_o forth_o he_o command_v they_o into_o whatsoever_o house_n you_o enter_v first_o say_v peace_n be_v to_o this_o house_n as_o it_o be_v express_v by_o luke_n and_o it_o be_v write_v also_o by_o the_o same_o luke_n that_o repentance_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n shall_v be_v preach_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n among_o all_o nation_n begin_v at_o jerusalem_n and_o it_o be_v true_a also_o as_o paul_n express_v it_o that_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o preach_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v now_o by_o the_o commandment_n of_o the_o everlasting_a god_n make_v know_v to_o all_o nation_n for_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n but_o do_v any_o of_o these_o scripture_n or_o any_o other_o say_v that_o christ_n require_v they_o to_o preach_v that_o he_o die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o person_n or_o of_o every_o person_n or_o can_v it_o be_v prove_v that_o this_o opinion_n of_o they_o be_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n and_o as_o for_o that_o of_o luke_n 10.5_o which_o may_v seem_v most_o difficult_a where_o it_o be_v say_v into_o whatsoever_o house_n you_o
