without_o suffer_v but_o yet_o so_o that_o man_n general_o conceive_v good_a hope_n that_o upon_o the_o repentance_n of_o sinner_n god_n will_v accept_v of_o a_o vicarious_a punishment_n that_o be_v of_o the_o suffer_v of_o some_o other_o in_o their_o stead_n and_o very_o probable_o as_o i_o say_v before_o in_o compliance_n with_o this_o apprehension_n of_o mankind_n and_o in_o condescension_n to_o it_o as_o well_o as_o for_o other_o weighty_a reason_n best_o know_v to_o the_o divine_a wisdom_n god_n be_v please_v to_o find_v out_o such_o a_o sacrifice_n as_o shall_v real_o and_o effectual_o procure_v for_o they_o that_o great_a blessing_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n which_o they_o have_v so_o long_o hope_v for_o from_o the_o multitude_n of_o their_o own_o sacrifice_n and_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n do_v in_o a_o large_a discourse_n show_v the_o great_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o purpose_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n above_o that_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n and_o that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v real_o and_o effectual_o to_o our_o advantage_n all_o that_o which_o the_o sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v to_o the_o sinner_n but_o now_o once_o say_v the_o apostle_n here_o in_o the_o text_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n have_v he_o appear_v to_o take_v away_o sin_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o this_o be_v the_o great_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n that_o what_o ever_o be_v expect_v from_o any_o other_o sacrifice_n either_o by_o jew_n or_o heathen_n be_v real_o effect_v by_o this_o this_o be_v plain_o signify_v by_o the_o jewish_a passover_n wherein_o the_o lamb_n be_v slay_v and_o the_o sinner_n do_v escape_v and_o be_v pass_v by_o in_o allusion_n whereto_o st._n paul_n make_v no_o scruple_n to_o call_v christ_n our_o passover_n or_o paschal_n lamb_n who_o be_v slay_v that_o we_o may_v escape_v christ_n our_o passover_n say_v he_o be_v slay_v 7._o or_o offer_v for_o we_o that_o be_v he_o by_o the_o gracious_a appointment_n of_o god_n be_v substitute_v to_o suffer_v all_o that_o in_o our_o stead_n which_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n be_v suppose_v to_o suffer_v for_o the_o sinner_n and_o this_o be_v likewise_o signify_v by_o the_o sinner_n lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v to_o be_v slay_v thereby_o as_o it_o be_v transfer_v the_o punishment_n which_o be_v due_a to_o himself_o upon_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v to_o be_v slay_v and_o offer_v up_o for_o so_o god_n tell_v moses_n that_o the_o sinner_n who_o come_v to_o offer_v a_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n shall_v do_v he_o 4._o shall_v put_v his_o hand_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o burnt-offering_a and_o it_o shall_v be_v accept_v for_o he_o to_o make_v a_o atonement_n for_o he_o and_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v a_o establish_a principle_n in_o the_o jewish_a religion_n that_o without_o shed_v of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n which_o plain_o show_v that_o they_o expect_v this_o benefit_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n from_o the_o blood_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n and_o then_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v real_o make_v partaker_n of_o this_o benefit_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o again_o 28._o christ_n say_v he_o be_v once_o offer_v to_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o plain_o allude_v to_o the_o sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n which_o do_v as_o it_o be_v bear_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o sinner_n and_o that_o this_o expression_n of_o christ_n be_v offer_v to_o bear_v our_o sin_n can_v be_v mean_v of_o his_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n by_o his_o holy_a doctrine_n which_o be_v confirm_v by_o his_o death_n but_o of_o his_o bear_v our_o sin_n by_o way_n of_o imputation_n and_o by_o his_o suffering_n for_o they_o in_o our_o stead_n as_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v suppose_v to_o do_v for_o the_o sinner_n this_o i_o say_v be_v evident_a beyond_o all_o denial_n from_o the_o opposition_n which_o follow_v after_o the_o text_n between_o his_o first_o appearance_n and_o his_o second_o christ_n say_v our_o apostle_n be_v once_o 28._o offer_v to_o bear_v our_o sin_n but_o unto_o they_o that_o look_v for_o he_o he_o shall_v appear_v a_o second_o time_n without_o sin_n unto_o salvation_n why_o do_v he_o not_o appear_v the_o first_o time_n without_o sin_n yes_o certain_o as_o to_o any_o inherent_a guilt_n for_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o he_o have_v no_o sin_n what_o then_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o opposition_n that_o at_o his_o first_o come_v he_o bear_v our_o sin_n but_o at_o his_o second_o come_v he_o shall_v appear_v without_o sin_n unto_o salvation_n these_o word_n can_v have_v no_o other_o imaginable_a sense_n but_o this_o that_o at_o his_o first_o come_v he_o sustain_v the_o person_n of_o a_o sinner_n and_o suffer_v instead_o of_o we_o but_o his_o second_o come_v shall_v be_v upon_o another_o account_n and_o he_o shall_v appear_v without_o sin_n unto_o salvation_n that_o be_v not_o as_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o as_o a_o judge_n to_o confer_v the_o reward_n of_o eternal_a life_n upon_o those_o who_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o that_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o offer_v to_o god_n for_o we_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n i_o proceed_v to_o the_o iii_o iii_o d._n thing_n i_o propose_v and_o which_o yet_o remain_v to_o be_v speak_v to_o namely_o to_o vindicate_v this_o method_n and_o dispensation_n of_o the_o divine_a wisdom_n from_o the_o objection_n which_o be_v bring_v against_o it_o and_o to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o it_o that_o be_v unreasonable_a or_o any_o wise_a unworthy_a of_o god_n i_o shall_v mention_v four_o objection_n which_o be_v common_o urge_v in_o this_o matter_n and_o i_o think_v they_o be_v all_o that_o be_v considerable_a one_a first_o that_o this_o method_n of_o the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n by_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n seem_v to_o argue_v some_o defect_n and_o want_n of_o goodness_n in_o god_n as_o if_o he_o need_v some_o external_a motive_n and_o be_v not_o of_o himself_o dispose_v to_o forgive_v sinner_n to_o which_o i_o think_v the_o answer_n be_v not_o difficult_a namely_o that_o god_n do_v not_o want_v goodness_n to_o have_v forgive_v sin_n free_o and_o without_o any_o satisfaction_n but_o his_o wisdom_n do_v not_o think_v it_o meet_v to_o give_v encouragement_n to_o sin_n by_o too_o easy_a a_o forgiveness_n and_o without_o some_o remarkable_a testimony_n of_o his_o severe_a displeasure_n against_o it_o and_o therefore_o his_o great_a goodness_n and_o compassion_n to_o mankind_n devise_v this_o way_n to_o save_v the_o sinner_n without_o give_v the_o least_o countenance_n and_o encouragement_n to_o sin_n for_o god_n to_o think_v of_o save_v we_o any_o way_n be_v excessive_a goodness_n and_o mercy_n but_o to_o think_v of_o do_v it_o in_o this_o way_n by_o substitute_v his_o dear_o belove_a son_n to_o suffer_v in_o our_o stead_n be_v a_o condescension_n so_o very_a amaze_a that_o if_o god_n have_v not_o be_v please_v of_o his_o own_o goodness_n to_o stoop_v to_o it_o it_o have_v almost_o be_v blasphemy_n in_o man_n to_o have_v think_v of_o it_o or_o desire_v it_o second_o how_o can_v our_o sin_n be_v say_v to_o have_v 2d_o be_v forgive_v free_o if_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o be_v purchase_v at_o so_o dear_a a_o rate_n and_o so_o mighty_a a_o price_n be_v pay_v for_o it_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o desire_v these_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v consider_v 1_o sy_n that_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n to_o admit_v of_o this_o translation_n of_o the_o punishment_n which_o be_v due_a to_o we_o and_o to_o accept_v of_o the_o suffering_n of_o another_o in_o our_o stead_n and_o for_o our_o benefit_n when_o he_o may_v just_o have_v exact_v it_o of_o we_o in_o our_o own_o person_n so_o that_o even_o in_o this_o respect_n we_o be_v as_o st._n paul_n say_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n through_o the_o redemption_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o free_o too_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o necessity_n that_o lie_v upon_o god_n to_o forgive_v we_o in_o this_o or_o any_o other_o way_n it_o be_v a_o free_a act_n of_o his_o goodness_n to_o save_v we_o even_o by_o the_o satisfaction_n and_o suffering_n of_o his_o own_o son_n 2_o lie_v it_o be_v in_o effect_n free_o too_o notwithstanding_o the_o mighty_a price_n which_o be_v pay_v for_o our_o redemption_n because_o this_o price_n be_v not_o of_o our_o own_o procure_n but_o of_o god_n provide_v he_o find_v out_o this_o ransom_n for_o we_o and_o will_v any_o man_n say_v that_o a_o prince_n who_o prevail_v with_o his_o

son_n to_o intercede_v for_o the_o pardon_n of_o a_o rebel_n yea_o and_o to_o suffer_v some_o punishment_n or_o to_o pay_v a_o fine_a for_o the_o obtain_n of_o it_o do_v not_o in_o effect_n and_o in_o all_o equitable_a and_o grateful_a construction_n forgive_v he_o free_o 3_o three_o it_o be_v yet_o further_o object_v that_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v more_o unreasonable_a than_o the_o sacrifice_a of_o beast_n among_o the_o jew_n nay_o than_o the_o sacrifice_a of_o man_n among_o the_o heathen_a and_o even_o of_o their_o own_o son_n and_o daughter_n because_o this_o be_v the_o offer_v up_o of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o most_o innocent_a and_o the_o most_o excellent_a person_n that_o ever_o be_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o manner_n and_o the_o design_n of_o it_o the_o thing_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v quite_o otherwise_o as_o to_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o god_n do_v not_o command_v his_o son_n to_o be_v sacrifice_v but_o his_o providence_n permit_v the_o wickedness_n and_o violence_n of_o man_n to_o put_v he_o to_o death_n and_o then_o his_o goodness_n and_o wisdom_n do_v over-rule_v this_o worst_a of_o action_n to_o the_o best_a of_o ends._n and_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o matter_n aright_o how_o be_v this_o any_o more_o a_o reflection_n upon_o the_o holy_a providence_n of_o god_n than_o any_o enormity_n and_o cruelty_n which_o by_o his_o permission_n be_v daily_o commit_v in_o the_o world_n and_o then_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o end_n and_o design_n of_o this_o permission_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o the_o application_n of_o it_o to_o the_o purpose_n of_o a_o general_a expiation_n we_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v and_o even_o adore_v the_o gracious_a and_o merciful_a design_n of_o it_o for_o by_o this_o mean_v god_n do_v at_o once_o put_v a_o end_n to_o that_o unreasonable_a and_o bloody_a way_n of_o worship_n which_o have_v be_v so_o long_o practise_v in_o the_o world_n and_o after_o this_o one_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v so_o infinite_o dear_a to_o god_n the_o benefit_n of_o expiation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v expect_v in_o any_o other_o way_n all_o other_o sacrifice_n be_v worthless_a and_o vain_a in_o comparison_n of_o this_o and_o it_o have_v ever_o since_o obtain_v this_o effect_n of_o make_v all_o other_o sacrifice_n to_o cease_v in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n where_o christianity_n have_v prevail_v four_o the_o last_o objection_n be_v the_o injustice_n and_o four_o cruelty_n of_o a_o innocent_a person_n be_v suffer_v instead_o of_o the_o offender_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o they_o who_o make_v so_o great_a a_o noise_n with_o this_o objection_n do_v seem_v to_o i_o to_o give_v a_o full_a and_o clear_a answer_n to_o it_o themselves_o by_o acknowledge_v as_o they_o constant_o and_o express_o do_v that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v all_o this_o for_o our_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n though_o not_o in_o our_o place_n and_o stead_n for_o this_o to_o my_o apprehension_n be_v plain_o to_o give_v up_o the_o cause_n unless_o they_o can_v show_v a_o good_a reason_n why_o there_o be_v not_o as_o much_o injustice_n and_o cruelty_n in_o a_o innocent_a person_n be_v suffer_v for_o the_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n of_o a_o malefactor_n as_o in_o his_o suffering_n in_o his_o stead_n so_o little_o do_v man_n in_o the_o heat_n of_o dispute_n and_o opposition_n who_o be_v resolve_v to_o hold_v fast_o a_o opinion_n in_o despite_n of_o reason_n and_o good_a sense_n consider_v that_o they_o do_v many_o time_n in_o effect_n and_o by_o necessary_a consequence_n grant_v the_o very_a thing_n which_o in_o express_a term_n they_o do_v so_o stiff_o and_o pertinacious_o deny_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o matter_n be_v this_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o injustice_n or_o cruelty_n in_o either_o case_n neither_o in_o a_o innocent_a person_n be_v suffer_v for_o the_o benefit_n of_o a_o offender_n nor_o in_o his_o stead_n suppose_v the_o suffer_v to_o be_v voluntary_a but_o they_o have_v equal_o the_o same_o appearance_n of_o injustice_n and_o cruelty_n nor_o can_v i_o possible_o discern_v any_o reason_n why_o injustice_n and_o cruelty_n shall_v be_v object_v in_o the_o one_o case_n more_o than_o in_o the_o other_o there_o be_v every_o whit_n as_o little_a reason_n why_o a_o innocent_a person_n shall_v suffer_v for_o the_o benefit_n of_o a_o criminal_a as_o why_o he_o shall_v suffer_v in_o his_o stead_n so_o that_o i_o hope_v this_o objection_n which_o above_o all_o the_o rest_n have_v be_v so_o loud_o and_o so_o invidious_o urge_v have_v receive_v a_o just_a answer_n and_o i_o believe_v if_o the_o matter_n be_v search_v to_o the_o bottom_n all_o this_o perverse_a contention_n about_o our_o saviour_n suffering_n for_o our_o benefit_n but_o not_o in_o our_o stead_n will_v signify_v just_a nothing_o for_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o our_o benefit_n so_o as_o some_o way_n or_o other_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n to_o save_v we_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o to_o procure_v our_o escape_n from_o eternal_a death_n this_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v be_v all_o that_o any_o body_n mean_v by_o his_o die_v in_o our_o stead_n for_o he_o that_o die_v with_o a_o intention_n to_o do_v that_o benefit_n to_o another_o as_o to_o save_v he_o from_o death_n do_v certain_o to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n die_v in_o his_o place_n and_o stead_n and_o if_o they_o will_v grant_v this_o to_o be_v their_o meaning_n the_o controversy_n be_v at_o a_o end_n and_o both_o side_n be_v agree_v in_o the_o thing_n and_o do_v only_o differ_v in_o the_o phrase_n and_o manner_n of_o expression_n which_o be_v to_o seek_v a_o quarrel_n and_o a_o occasion_n of_o difference_n where_o there_o be_v no_o real_a ground_n for_o it_o a_o thing_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v very_o far_o from_o reasonable_a and_o peaceable_a mind_n for_o the_o socinian_o say_v that_o our_o saviour_n voluntary_a obedience_n and_o suffering_n do_v procure_v his_o exaltation_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n and_o power_n and_o authority_n to_o forgive_v sin_n and_o to_o give_v eternal_a life_n to_o as_o many_o as_o he_o please_v so_o that_o they_o grant_v that_o his_o obedience_n and_o suffering_n in_o the_o meritorious_a consequence_n of_o they_o do_v redound_v to_o our_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n as_o much_o as_o we_o pretend_v and_o say_v they_o do_v only_o they_o be_v loath_a in_o express_a term_n to_o acknowledge_v that_o christ_n die_v in_o our_o stead_n and_o this_o for_o no_o other_o reason_n that_o i_o can_v imagine_v but_o because_o they_o have_v deny_v it_o so_o often_o and_o so_o long_o but_o i_o appeal_v to_o the_o ingenuity_n of_o our_o adversary_n whether_o this_o do_v not_o in_o the_o last_o issue_n come_v all_o to_o one_o and_o be_v not_o on_o their_o part_n a_o mere_a controversy_n about_o word_n for_o suppose_v a_o malefactor_n condemn_v to_o some_o grievous_a punishment_n and_o the_o king_n son_n to_o save_v he_o from_o it_o be_v content_v to_o submit_v to_o great_a disgrace_n and_o suffering_n in_o reward_n of_o which_o suffering_n the_o king_n take_v his_o son_n into_o his_o throne_n and_o set_v he_o at_o his_o own_o right_a hand_n and_o give_v he_o power_n to_o pardon_v this_o malefactor_n and_o upon_o a_o fit_a submission_n and_o repentance_n to_o advance_v he_o to_o honour_n will_v not_o any_o man_n in_o this_o case_n allow_v that_o the_o king_n son_n suffer_v instead_o of_o this_o malefactor_n and_o smile_v at_o any_o man_n that_o shall_v be_v so_o nice_a as_o to_o grant_v that_o indeed_o he_o suffer_v for_o he_o but_o yet_o to_o deny_v that_o he_o be_v punish_v for_o he_o to_o allow_v that_o he_o bear_v the_o inconvenience_n of_o his_o fault_n but_o yet_o obstinate_o to_o stand_v it_o out_o that_o the_o fault_n of_o this_o malefactor_n be_v not_o lay_v upon_o he_o or_o in_o any_o wise_a so_o impute_v to_o he_o that_o he_o can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v suffer_v in_o his_o stead_n this_o be_v just_a the_o case_n and_o the_o difference_n in_o reality_n and_o in_o the_o last_o result_n of_o thing_n be_v nothing_o but_o word_n thus_o far_o have_v i_o try_v your_o patience_n in_o
