singular_a gift_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o be_v able_a to_o confess_v our_o sin_n aright_o james_n 1.17_o every_o good_a gift_n be_v from_o above_o therefore_o job_n beg_v this_o of_o god_n job_n

do_v this_o remain_v a_o certain_a truth_n that_o one_o special_a property_n to_o distinguish_v the_o sincere_a confession_n from_o the_o counterfeit_n be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v particular_a &_o so_o be_v not_o the_o other_o and_o this_o will_v appear_v to_o you_o in_o four_o point_n 1._o all_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o do_v their_o best_a endeavour_n to_o know_v and_o find_v out_o their_o most_o secret_a sin_n that_o so_o they_o may_v lay_v they_o open_v in_o particular_a unto_o god_n this_o be_v plain_a by_o that_o speech_n of_o the_o prophet_n lam._n 3.40_o let_v we_o search_v and_o

confession_n of_o his_o sin_n job_n 34.31_o 32._o sure_o it_o be_v meet_v to_o be_v say_v unto_o god_n that_o which_o i_o see_v not_o teach_v thou_o i_o all_o man_n shall_v beg_v this_o of_o god_n to_o discover_v to_o they_o their_o secret_a and_o unknown_a sin_n 2._o the_o more_o particular_a a_o man_n can_v be_v in_o the_o confess_v of_o his_o sin_n the_o more_o of_o his_o sin_n he_o can_v confess_v against_o himself_o the_o more_o comfort_n he_o may_v have_v in_o his_o confession_n it_o be_v with_o we_o in_o our_o deal_n with_o god_n in_o this_o case_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o client_n or_o patient_a that_o deal_v with_o his_o lawyer_n or_o physician_n for_o counsel_n the_o more_o particular_o we_o know_v that_o a_o man_n deal_v with_o his_o lawyer_n in_o lay_v open_a his_o case_n unto_o he_o and_o with_o his_o physician_n in_o discover_v his_o disease_n unto_o he_o the_o more_o good_a he_o may_v receive_v from_o he_o yea_o the_o conceal_n of_o some_o one_o

better_a it_o will_v be_v for_o we_o this_o be_v plain_a by_o that_o direction_n the_o lord_n give_v to_o the_o high_a priest_n in_o the_o confession_n he_o be_v to_o make_v of_o the_o people_n sin_n upon_o the_o day_n of_o atonement_n leu._n 16.21_o aaron_n shall_v lay_v both_o his_o hand_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o live_a goat_n the_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v to_o bear_v &_o take_v upon_o

confession_n mention_v some_o particular_a sin_n wherein_o we_o have_v offend_v god_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v this_o duty_n feel_o and_o to_o the_o purpose_n see_v this_o in_o that_o commandment_n god_n give_v to_o his_o people_n for_o confession_n and_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o jere._n 3.13_o only_o acknowledge_v that_o thou_o have_v transgress_v against_o the_o lord_n

confession_n of_o god_n people_n commend_v to_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n judge_n 10.10_o we_o have_v sin_v against_o thou_o both_o because_o we_o have_v forsake_v our_o god_n and_o also_o

though_o it_o be_v profitable_a for_o we_o as_o we_o hear_v the_o last_o day_n when_o we_o will_v humble_v our_o soul_n in_o the_o confession_n of_o our_o sin_n to_o call_v to_o mind_n and_o confess_v

so_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n must_v be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o before_o we_o can_v be_v justify_v rom._n 8.4_o now_o by_o no_o other_o righteousness_n but_o christ_n

the_o apostle_n call_v he_o ephesian_n 2.14_o and_o none_o but_o he_o no_o righteousness_n can_v make_v our_o peace_n with_o god_n or_o bring_v peace_n to_o our_o own_o heart_n but_o only_o he_o three_o main_a objection_n be_v make_v against_o this_o most_o clear_a and_o comfortable_a truth_n which_o i_o will_v brief_o answer_v 1_o first_o it_o be_v against_o all_o reason_n and_o sense_n that_o a_o righteousness_n which_o be_v without_o we_o and_o none_o of_o our_o own_o but_o another_o man_n shall_v justify_v we_o and_o with_o what_o comfort_n and_o peace_n of_o conscience_n can_v any_o man_n rely_v upon_o such_o a_o righteousness_n answ._n i_o answer_v 1._o it_o stand_v with_o reason_n that_o that_o satisfaction_n shall_v be_v impute_v unto_o i_o which_o my_o surety_n have_v make_v for_o my_o debt_n and_o christ_n be_v our_o surety_n as_o the_o apostle_n call_v he_o hebrew_n 7_o 22._o 2._o adam_n first_o sin_n be_v just_o impute_v by_o god_n to_o all_o his_o posterity_n though_o it_o be_v not_o their_o own_o inherent_o nor_o actual_o as_o the_o apostle_n teach_v rom._n 5.14_o and_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o god_n elect_n be_v impute_v unto_o christ_n though_o they_o be_v not_o his_o own_o inherent_o and_o actual_o he_o make_v he_o to_o be_v sin_n for_o we_o who_o know_v no_o sin_n say_v the_o apostle_n 2_o corinth_n 5.21_o and_o to_o prefigure_v this_o all_o the_o iniquity_n of_o god_n people_n be_v impute_v to_o their_o sacrifice_n though_o they_o be_v not_o inherent_o his_o own_o as_o we_o read_v leviticus_n 16._o ●1_n 22._o aaron_n shall_v put_v all_o the_o iniquity_n of_o all_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o all_o their_o transgression_n in_o all_o their_o sin_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o goat_n and_o the_o goat_n shall_v bear_v upon_o he_o all_o their_o iniquity_n and_o why_o then_o shall_v it_o seem_v strange_a that_o the_o perfect_a righteousness_n of_o our_o sacrifice_n and_o surety_n though_o it_o be_v not_o our_o own_o inherent_o shall_v be_v impute_v to_o we_o by_o the_o lord_n and_o make_v we_o 2_o second_o it_o be_v object_v how_o can_v it_o stand_v with_o the_o infinite_a knowledge_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o account_v and_o esteem_v they_o to_o be_v righteous_a that_o be_v inherent_o and_o indeed_o impious_a and_o wicked_a man_n they_o that_o be_v like_o those_o paint_a sepulchre_n that_o our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o mat._n 23.27_o cover_v outward_o with_o the_o white_a robe_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n but_o void_a of_o all_o inherent_a righteousness_n in_o themselves_o answ._n to_o this_o i_o answer_v no_o true_a believer_n be_v void_a of_o all_o inherent_a righteousness_n though_o it_o be_v not_o so_o perfect_a as_o be_v able_a to_o justify_v he_o in_o god_n sight_n christ_n can_v be_v the_o head_n of_o a_o impious_a body_n but_o the_o lord_n sanctify_v all_o such_o and_o make_v they_o inherent_o righteous_a by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n who_o he_o do_v justify_v and_o esteem_v righteous_a by_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n unto_o they_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v 3_o three_o and_o last_o it_o be_v object_v but_o how_o can_v it_o stand_v with_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n of_o who_o it_o be_v say_v exod_a 34.7_o that_o he_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n clear_v the_o guilty_a to_o pronounce_v and_o account_v they_o to_o be_v perfect_o righteous_a who_o do_v indeed_o still_o remain_v full_a of_o corruption_n answ._n i_o answer_v because_o all_o their_o sin_n be_v impute_v unto_o christ_n their_o surety_n and_o he_o have_v full_o satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n for_o they_o the_o lord_n say_v the_o prophet_n esa._n 53.6_o have_v lay_v upon_o he_o the_o iniquity_n of_o we_o all_o and_o thus_o have_v i_o finish_v this_o first_o use_n of_o the_o doctrine_n and_o maintain_v it_o against_o these_o three_o foul_a error_n that_o the_o papist_n do_v hold_v against_o it_o now_o from_o this_o that_o you_o have_v hear_v these_o two_o point_n for_o conclusion_n of_o all_o do_v necessary_o follow_v first_o that_o every_o papist_n that_o hold_v and_o believe_v these_o error_n as_o every_o one_o of_o they_o profess_v that_o he_o do_v for_o

his_o own_o work_n be_v in_o a_o most_o lamentable_a and_o damnable_a estate_n because_o the_o apostle_n direct_o affirm_v gal._n 3.10_o as_o many_o as_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n and_o

that_o true_o believe_v in_o he_o be_v not_o only_o perfect_o clean_a in_o god_n sight_n from_o all_o filth_n and_o spot_n of_o sin_n but_o white_a also_o than_o snow_n perfect_o just_a and_o
