one_o from_o the_o other_o i.e._n the_o active_a obedience_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o passive_a obedience_n now_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o safe_a for_o any_o to_o say_v we_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o passive_a obedience_n of_o christ_n only_o i._n e._n by_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n alone_o i_o say_v it_o be_v very_o dangerous_a for_o any_o to_o believe_v thus_o for_o thus_o i_o argue_v argument_n that_o alone_o by_o which_o the_o law_n be_v fulfil_v and_o god_n justice_n satisfy_v by_o that_o alone_o we_o be_v justify_v but_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o life_n which_o be_v his_o active_a obedience_n and_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o death_n which_o be_v his_o passive_a obedience_n the_o law_n be_v fulfil_v and_o god_n justice_n full_o satisfy_v therefore_o by_o the_o whole_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n namely_o his_o holy_a life_n and_o meritorious_a death_n we_o be_v justify_v not_o by_o his_o death_n exclude_v his_o holy_a life_n but_o his_o holy_a life_n and_o bitter_a death_n justify_v we_o and_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o our_o justification_n and_o my_o belove_a consider_v 1._o that_o the_o first_o part_n be_v prove_v thus_o there_o be_v no_o justification_n before_o god_n without_o a_o perfect_a and_o complete_a righteousness_n as_o that_o which_o be_v agreeable_a to_o god_n holy_a nature_n and_o which_o be_v agreeable_a to_o his_o holy_a law_n and_o this_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v that_o a_o man_n must_v be_v perfect_o just_a or_o declare_v so_o upon_o just_a ground_n or_o he_o can_v be_v justify_v 2._o consider_v that_o there_o be_v no_o perfect_a righteousness_n but_o that_o which_o exact_o and_o full_o fulfil_v the_o law_n that_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v do_v i_o mean_v the_o law_n fulfil_v two_o way_n 1._o by_o a_o perfect_a and_o perpetual_a conformity_n to_o the_o law_n not_o only_o a_o perfect_a conformity_n to_o it_o for_o the_o present_a but_o by_o a_o perpetual_a conformity_n to_o it_o in_o do_v all_o that_o the_o law_n enjoin_v according_a to_o the_o tenure_n of_o it_o do_v this_o and_o live_v or_o do_v this_o and_o thou_o shall_v be_v justify_v i_o will_v defend_v you_o from_o all_o and_o every_o thing_n that_o can_v do_v you_o hurt_v 2._o by_o a_o full_a satisfaction_n and_o compensation_n to_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n i._n e._n to_o bear_v and_o undergo_v the_o penalty_n and_o punishment_n thereof_o which_o be_v death_n and_o the_o curse_n and_o wrath_n of_o god_n this_o be_v our_o due_n and_o this_o christ_n do_v in_o our_o stead_n as_o our_o surety_n he_o do_v perfect_o and_o perpetual_o keep_v the_o law_n while_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n in_o our_o nature_n for_o we_o and_o he_o do_v full_o satisfy_v and_o make_v compensation_n to_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o law_n he_o do_v undergo_v the_o penalty_n and_o punishment_n therein_o denounce_v which_o be_v our_o due_n 3._o and_o that_o it_o must_v be_v thus_o evident_a because_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n do_v not_o make_v void_a the_o law_n but_o establish_v it_o see_v rom._n 3._o ult_n faith_n or_o justification_n by_o faith_n do_v not_o make_v void_a the_o law_n but_o establish_v it_o the_o law_n be_v confirm_v i._n e._n establish_v by_o our_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o complete_a righteousness_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o perfect_a and_o complete_a conformity_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o the_o law_n the_o law_n be_v establish_v as_o holy_a just_a and_o good_n but_o christ_n do_v full_o and_o perfect_o keep_v the_o law_n and_o make_v a_o full_a satisfaction_n to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o it_o he_o in_o every_o precept_n type_n promise_v and_o prophecy_n complete_o fulfil_v it_o to_o justify_v we_o thereby_o as_o our_o surety_n therefore_o 4._o consider_v that_o by_o the_o passive_a righteousness_n or_o meritorious_a death_n and_o suffer_v of_o christ_n we_o be_v not_o justify_v this_o do_v not_o justify_v we_o alone_o that_o be_v single_o consider_v and_o the_o reason_n follow_v reason_n 1._o because_o it_o be_v by_o his_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o in_o our_o nature_n as_o our_o head_n surety_n and_o representative_a bear_v the_o penalty_n of_o the_o law_n he_o free_v we_o from_o hell_n 2._o because_o by_o his_o righteousness_n both_o habitual_a and_o actual_a he_o entitle_v we_o to_o heaven_n neither_o of_o which_o we_o be_v capable_a to_o perform_v therefore_o his_o passive_a obedience_n alone_o do_v not_o justify_v for_o by_o his_o passive_a obedience_n bear_v our_o punishment_n he_o only_o free_v we_o from_o hell_n and_o by_o his_o active_a obedience_n in_o keep_v perfect_o and_o perpetual_o the_o law_n he_o give_v we_o a_o title_n to_o the_o promise_n of_o glory_n now_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v free_v from_o punishment_n and_o another_o to_o be_v raise_v again_o into_o the_o king_n favour_n and_o presence_n wherefore_o 3._o as_o without_o the_o imputation_n or_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o suffering_n we_o can_v not_o be_v free_v from_o hell_n so_o without_o his_o perfect_a obedience_n and_o conformity_n to_o the_o holy_a law_n impute_v to_o we_o we_o can_v not_o be_v justify_v and_o save_v by_o the_o former_a viz._n the_o suffering_n of_o our_o saviour_n he_o have_v redeem_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n and_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o gal._n 3.13_o and_o by_o the_o latter_a he_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o promise_a blessedness_n or_o give_v we_o a_o title_n to_o or_o interest_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n by_o perform_v for_o we_o in_o our_o nature_n that_o righteousness_n which_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o promise_n do_v this_o i._n e._n perform_v this_o there_o be_v the_o precept_n and_o thou_o shall_v live_v that_o be_v the_o promise_n now_o this_o life_n be_v not_o only_o temporal_a but_o spiritual_a it_o be_v a_o life_n of_o peace_n in_o the_o favour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n a_o life_n of_o great_a consolation_n in_o god_n love_n and_o favour_n do_v this_o and_o thou_o shall_v live_v this_o christ_n do_v therefore_o the_o promise_n be_v we_o he_o do_v it_o for_o we_o and_o god_n the_o father_n to_o speak_v with_o reverence_n be_v oblige_v to_o make_v good_a the_o promise_n we_o shall_v live_v therefore_o 4._o consider_v as_o we_o be_v justify_v from_o our_o sin_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v damn_v so_o we_o be_v just_a by_o the_o actual_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v save_v or_o glorify_v the_o first_o defend_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n and_o wrath_n of_o god_n the_o second_o entitle_v we_o to_o the_o mercy_n and_o blessing_n of_o god_n or_o as_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n so_o we_o be_v as_o well_o justify_v and_o save_v by_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n i._n e._n by_o that_o life_n that_o he_o live_v for_o we_o while_n on_o earth_n the_o benefit_n and_o blessing_n of_o which_o he_o plead_v now_o for_o we_o in_o heaven_n for_o it_o be_v to_o this_o end_n he_o live_v now_o for_o we_o in_o heaven_n there_o not_o only_o do_v he_o plead_v his_o bitter_a death_n and_o passion_n but_o also_o his_o holy_a life_n which_o be_v a_o perfect_a conformity_n to_o god_n law_n vide_fw-la rom._n 5.10_o for_o if_o while_o we_o be_v enemy_n we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n much_o more_o be_v reconcile_v we_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o his_o life_n so_o it_o be_v by_o his_o life_n that_o we_o be_v save_v because_o he_o now_o live_v to_o plead_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o of_o his_o undertake_n for_o we_o by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v the_o doctrine_n of_o st._n paul_n be_v confirm_v rom._n 5.19_o for_o as_o by_o the_o disobedience_n of_o one_o man_n even_a adam_n against_o the_o law_n many_o be_v make_v sinner_n by_o imputation_n so_o by_o the_o obedience_n of_o one_o man_n even_o christ_n the_o second_o adam_n shall_v many_o be_v make_v righteous_a have_v thus_o open_v the_o point_n that_o which_o i_o be_o to_o prove_v be_v this_o viz._n that_o christ_n death_n be_v the_o meritorious_a or_o procure_v cause_n of_o our_o justification_n that_o christ_n suffering_n do_v merit_v this_o favour_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n nor_o we_o and_o defend_v we_o from_o the_o curse_n and_o wrath_n of_o god_n now_o that_o which_o we_o affirm_v be_v this_o that_o what_o christ_n do_v and_o suffer_v he_o do_v it_o as_o a_o common_a head_n representative_a and_o surety_n for_o all_o the_o elect_n which_o be_v his_o mystical_a body_n but_o there_o be_v a_o unsound_a notion_n

that_o you_o say_v be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v it_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v god_n ans_fw-fr to_o which_o i_o answer_v no_o it_o be_v not_o the_o

of_o his_o flesh_n while_o he_o live_v for_o we_o upon_o the_o earth_n this_o be_v by_o st._n paul_n call_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n rom._n 10.3_o for_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o

and_o 1._o because_o this_o righteousness_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v his_o active_a and_o passive_a obedience_n which_o he_o act_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o in_o our_o room_n

because_o it_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o he_o that_o be_v true_o god_n so_o well_o as_o man_n he_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n think_v it_o no_o robbery_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n
