christ_n do_v maintain_v and_o plead_v first_o i_o say_v of_o all_o believer_n he_o call_v they_o little_a child_n as_o well_o as_o strong_a man_n even_o the_o cause_n of_o little_a child_n even_o

it_o be_v true_a they_o shall_v believe_v in_o time_n but_o yet_o i_o say_v christ_n be_v a_o advocate_n of_o they_o while_o unbeliever_n if_o they_o be_v elect_v there_o be_v not_o a_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n but_o as_o it_o be_v damnable_a in_o its_o own_o nature_n in_o the_o rigour_n of_o justice_n so_o it_o do_v not_o allow_v of_o any_o forbearance_n it_o be_v only_a christ_n that_o make_v

take_v away_o sin_n but_o there_o be_v a_o righteousness_n that_o be_v declare_v from_o heaven_n and_o annex_v to_o the_o sacrifice_n the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v that_o which_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o quarrel_n this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v a_o agreement_n between_o those_o that_o be_v at_o
this_o discharge_n from_o sin_n go_v all_o along_o under_o the_o notion_n of_o grace_n and_o free_a grace_n and_o pardon_v how_o can_v this_o be_v if_o it_o be_v mere_o a_o act_n of_o justice_n for_o god_n to_o forgive_v sin_n this_o may_v easy_o be_v reconcile_v with_o a_o distinction_n discharge_v from_o sin_n in_o respect_n of_o we_o or_o what_o we_o can_v bring_v by_o way_n of_o recompense_n for_o the_o sin_n commit_v be_v mere_o free_a grace_n we_o can_v bring_v nothing_o at_o all_o also_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v allow_v to_o stand_v in_o the_o room_n of_o we_o it_o be_v grace_n too_o but_o three_o christ_n be_v allow_v and_o admit_v and_o the_o lord_n have_v take_v the_o full_a payment_n he_o can_v ask_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n and_o acknowledge_v satisfaction_n upon_o such_o payment_n this_o act_n of_o christ_n make_v it_o a_o act_n of_o justice_n and_o right_n that_o god_n shall_v forgive_v sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o this_o epistle_n of_o john_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o he_o conclude_v that_o he_o be_v faithful_a and_o just_a to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n but_o i_o can_v insist_v upon_o what_o i_o have_v former_o deliver_v now_o peradventure_o some_o though_o i_o confess_v a_o little_a overcurious_a desire_v to_o understand_v how_o christ_n be_v now_o in_o heaven_n do_v execute_v this_o office_n of_o advocateship_n or_o in_o what_o sense_n he_o be_v say_v to_o plead_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o people_n i_o call_v it_o a_o curious_a query_n because_o the_o scripture_n be_v very_o spare_v in_o declare_v the_o manner_n of_o christ_n manage_v this_o office_n that_o he_o be_v a_o advocate_n be_v clear_a enough_o how_o he_o do_v deal_v with_o god_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o be_v more_o obscure_a frequent_a mention_n be_v make_v indeed_o of_o christ_n intercession_n in_o heaven_n be_v ever_o live_v to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o as_o the_o apostle_n testify_v he_o do_v intercede_v for_o the_o saint_n say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o though_o this_o be_v so_o frequent_o mention_v and_o the_o comfort_n of_o god_n people_n much_o lay_v upon_o this_o n●●ely_o this_o intercession_n yet_o the_o scripture_n be_v very_o spare_v what_o kind_n of_o

execution_n of_o it_o in_o heb._n 11.4_o there_o be_v something_o that_o will_v give_v we_o some_o light_n b●_n faith_n say_v the_o apostle_n abel_n offer_v a_o more_o excellent_a sacrifice_n than_o cain_n whereby_o he_o receive_v or_o obtain_v witness_n of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v righteous_a by_o which_o he_o be_v dead_a et_fw-fr speak_v that_o be_v by_o which_o sacrifice_n he_o be_v dead_a yet_o speak_v the_o sacrifice_n you_o know_v they_o be_v christ_n in_o the_o antitype_n for_o all_o the_o life_n of_o sacrifice_n from_o which_o person_n obtain_v testimony_n of_o god_n that_o they_o

sacrifice_n speak_v in_o respect_n of_o a_o prevail_a power_n they_o have_v with_o god_n when_o he_o sit_v in_o judgement_n we_o be_v to_o conceive_v likewise_o of_o the_o advocateship_n of_o christ_n which_o i●_n nothing_o else_o but_o the_o speak_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o such_o a_o kind_n manage_v after_o such_o a_o manner_n christ_n speak_v as_o sacrifice_n speak_v for_o indeed_o christ_n as_o
