be_v punish_v in_o he_o as_o well_o as_o parent_n sin_n be_v punish_v proper_o in_o mere_a act_n of_o dominion_n upon_o their_o child_n if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o can_v be_v no_o punishment_n where_o there_o be_v no_o sense_n at_o all_o of_o it_o that_o be_v full_o take_v off_o by_o crellius_n for_o sure_o we_o have_v as_o great_a a_o sense_n of_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o first_o generation_n of_o the_o jew_n have_v of_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o last_o before_o the_o fatal_a destruction_n of_o the_o city_n or_o as_o saul_n have_v of_o the_o punishment_n of_o his_o son_n after_o his_o death_n so_o that_o from_o crellius_n his_o own_o concession_n we_o have_v prove_v that_o our_o sin_n may_v very_o proper_o be_v say_v to_o be_v punish_v in_o christ_n although_o he_o will_v not_o say_v that_o christ_n can_v be_v proper_o punish_v for_o our_o sin_n nay_o he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o our_o adversary_n not_o only_o deny_v it_o but_o earnest_o contend_v that_o it_o be_v very_o unjust_a to_o suppose_v it_o and_o repugnant_a to_o the_o rectitude_n of_o god_n nature_n to_o do_v it_o iii_o and_o so_o we_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o mighty_a argument_n that_o be_v insist_v on_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o propound_v which_o may_v be_v reduce_v to_o these_o three_o viz._n 1._o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o punishment_n but_o what_o be_v deserve_v but_o no_o man_n can_v deserve_v that_o another_o shall_v be_v punish_v 2._o that_o punishment_n flow_v from_o revenge_n but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o revenge_n where_o there_o have_v be_v no_o fault_n 3._o that_o the_o punishment_n of_o one_o can_v any_o way_n be_v make_v the_o punishment_n of_o another_o and_o in_o case_n it_o be_v suppose_v possible_a than_o those_o in_o who_o stead_n the_o other_o be_v punish_v must_v be_v actual_o deliver_v upon_o the_o payment_n of_o that_o debt_n which_o be_v owe_v to_o god_n 1._o that_o one_o man_n can_v deserve_v another_o punishment_n and_o therefore_o one_o can_v be_v punish_v for_o another_o for_o there_o be_v no_o just_a punishment_n but_o what_o be_v deserve_v this_o be_v the_o main_a argument_n insist_v on_o by_o crellius_n must_v be_v more_o careful_o consider_v but_o before_o a_o answer_n be_v make_v to_o it_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o a_o clear_a account_n be_v give_v in_o what_o sense_n it_o be_v he_o understand_v it_o which_o will_v be_v best_a do_v by_o lay_v down_o his_o principle_n as_o to_o the_o justice_n of_o punishment_n in_o a_o more_o distinct_a method_n than_o himself_o have_v do_v which_o be_v these_o follow_v 1._o that_o no_o person_n can_v be_v just_o punish_v either_o for_o his_o own_o or_o another_o fault_n but_o he_o that_o have_v deserve_v to_o be_v punish_v by_o some_o sin_n of_o his_o own_o for_o he_o still_o assert_n 240._o that_o the_o justice_n of_o punishment_n arise_v from_o a_o man_n own_o fault_n though_o the_o actual_a punishment_n may_v be_v from_o another_o but_o he_o that_o be_v punish_v without_o respect_n to_o his_o own_o guilt_n be_v punish_v undeserved_o and_o he_o that_o be_v punish_v undeserved_o be_v punish_v unjust_o 2._o that_o personal_a guilt_n be_v suppose_v one_o man_n sin_n may_v be_v the_o impulsive_a cause_n of_o another_o punishment_n but_o they_o can_v be_v the_o meritorious_a the_o difference_n between_o they_o he_o thus_o explain_v the_o cause_n be_v that_o which_o make_v a_o thing_n to_o be_v the_o impulsive_a that_o which_o move_v one_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n without_o any_o consideration_n of_o right_n that_o one_o have_v to_o do_v it_o merit_n be_v that_o which_o make_v a_o man_n worthy_a of_o a_o thing_n either_o good_a or_o bad_a and_o so_o give_v a_o right_a to_o it_o if_o it_o be_v good_a to_o himself_o if_o bad_a to_o he_o at_o who_o hand_n he_o have_v deserve_v it_o now_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o one_o man_n sin_n shall_v make_v any_o other_o deserve_v punishment_n but_o the_o person_n who_o commit_v they_o but_o they_o may_v impel_v one_o to_o punish_v another_o and_o that_o just_o if_o the_o person_n have_v otherwise_o deserve_v to_o be_v punish_v unjust_o if_o he_o have_v not_o the_o reason_n he_o give_v of_o it_o be_v that_o the_o vitiosity_n of_o the_o act_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a cause_n of_o punishment_n can_v go_v beyond_o the_o person_n of_o the_o offender_n and_o therefore_o can_v oblige_v none_o to_o punishment_n but_o he_o that_o have_v commit_v the_o fault_n and_o therefore_o he_o assert_n that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v just_o punish_v beyond_o the_o desert_n of_o his_o own_o sin_n but_o there_o may_v sometime_o be_v a_o double_a impulsive_a cause_n of_o that_o punishment_n viz._n his_o own_o and_o other_o man_n 18._o whereof_o one_o make_v that_o they_o may_v be_v just_o punish_v the_o other_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v actual_o but_o the_o latter_a he_o say_v always_o suppose_v the_o former_a as_o the_o foundation_n of_o just_a punishment_n so_o that_o no_o part_n of_o punishment_n can_v be_v execute_v upon_o he_o wherein_o his_o own_o sin_n be_v not_o suppose_v as_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o it_o these_o be_v his_o two_o main_a principle_n which_o we_o must_v now_o thorough_o examine_v the_o main_a force_n of_o his_o book_n lie_v in_o they_o but_o if_o we_o can_v prove_v that_o it_o have_v be_v general_o receive_v by_o the_o consent_n of_o mankind_n that_o a_o person_n may_v be_v punish_v beyond_o the_o desert_n of_o his_o own_o action_n if_o god_n have_v just_o punish_v some_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o other_o and_o there_o be_v no_o injustice_n in_o one_o man_n suffering_n by_o his_o own_o consent_n for_o another_o than_o these_o principle_n of_o crellius_n will_v be_v find_v not_o so_o firm_a as_o he_o imagine_v they_o iv._o 1._o that_o it_o have_v be_v general_o receive_v by_o the_o consent_n of_o mankind_n 4._o that_o a_o person_n may_v be_v just_o punish_v beyond_o the_o desert_n of_o his_o own_o
