covenant_n of_o mediation_n have_v perfect_o merit_v the_o reconciliation_n pardon_v justification_n adoption_n sanctification_n glory_n and_o all_o the_o good_a which_o ever_o we_o receive_v to_o

certain_o justify_v pardon_v and_o save_v by_o and_o for_o this_o meritorious_a righteousness_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n as_o if_o we_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v all_o ourselves_o and_o that_o he_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o in_o our_o stead_n that_o we_o may_v not_o suffer_v and_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n for_o we_o that_o be_v sinner_n and_o to_o these_o proper_a use_n we_o have_v and_o need_v no_o other_o righteousness_n and_o though_o it_o be_v not_o a_o scripture_n phrase_n we_o may_v true_o say_v that_o thus_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v impute_v to_o we_o but_o christ_n do_v all_o this_o in_o the_o person_n of_o a_o mediator_n and_o not_o as_o our_o delegate_n servant_n or_o agent_n nor_o full_a representer_n of_o our_o person_n that_o be_v his_o person_n and_o the_o person_n of_o each_o sinner_n be_v not_o the_o same_o indeed_o or_o in_o law-sense_n nor_o do_v god_n so_o judge_v they_o god_n do_v not_o so_o impute_v our_o sin_n to_o he_o as_o to_o take_v the_o very_a sin_n themselves_o to_o be_v his_o own_o sin_n for_o than_o they_o will_v denominate_v he_o according_o and_o make_v he_o actual_o hateful_a to_o god_n as_o they_o do_v we_o and_o his_o person_n will_v be_v corrupt_v by_o they_o it_o be_v therefore_o ill_a language_n and_o strict_o not_o true_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o only_o a_o ignorant_a infidel_n atheist_n a_o blasphemer_n a_o murderer_n a_o adulterer_n a_o liar_n but_o the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o worst_a person_n as_o have_v the_o sin_n of_o all_o the_o world_n or_o elect_v make_v in_o themselves_o his_o very_a sin_n it_o be_v only_o the_o punishment_n which_o he_o undergo_v as_o a_o voluntary_a sacrifice_n of_o propitiation_n and_o it_o be_v not_o true_a that_o we_o do_v ourselves_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n and_o satisfy_v justice_n by_o and_o in_o christ_n as_o personate_n we_o nor_o that_o god_n do_v judge_v we_o to_o have_v do_v all_o this_o in_o and_o by_o he_o and_o so_o take_v we_o to_o be_v such_o as_o never_o sin_v as_o have_v from_o our_o birth_n to_o our_o death_n perfect_o do_v all_o command_v we_o by_o another_o nor_o be_v we_o justify_v by_o the_o law_n of_o innocency_n as_o no_o sinner_n but_o from_o that_o law_n by_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n else_o we_o can_v have_v no_o need_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o satisfaction_n nor_o be_v capable_a of_o any_o pardon_n nor_o pray_v for_o pardon_n nor_o use_v any_o mean_n for_o pardon_n nor_o give_v any_o thanks_o for_o it_o nor_o need_v a_o law_n of_o grace_n to_o give_v it_o we_o nor_o a_o sacrament_n to_o seal_v it_o to_o we_o for_o he_o that_o be_v repute_v never_o to_o have_v sin_v but_o to_o have_v perfect_o keep_v the_o law_n have_v no_o sin_n to_o pardon_v or_o to_o be_v

member_n of_o his_o political_a body_n not_o of_o his_o natural_a the_o same_o accident_n can_v be_v in_o two_o yea_o innumerable_a subject_n christ_n righteousness_n be_v divine_a as_o well_o as_o

not_o god_n christ_n habitual_a righteousness_n be_v exclusive_a of_o all_o sin_n or_o need_v of_o heal_a grace_n or_o of_o a_o saviour_n but_o so_o be_v not_o we_o christ_n be_v the_o very_a agent_n of_o those_o act_n that_o be_v his_o active_a righteousness_n but_o we_o do_v they_o not_o nor_o do_v god_n mistake_v and_o think_v we_o do_v they_o it_o be_v not_o well_o say_v therefore_o that_o we_o be_v as_o righteous_a as_o christ_n and_o more_o righteous_a than_o the_o angel_n as_o have_v all_o the_o same_o righteousness_n that_o christ_n have_v as_o proprietor_n of_o itself_o but_o it_o
