slay_v thou_o not_o for_o i_o will_v not_o justify_v the_o wicked_a whereon_o i_o ground_n this_o argument_n that_o since_o god_n have_v prescribe_v a_o inoffensive_a life_n as_o that_o which_o only_o can_v give_v acceptance_n with_o he_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_n have_v determine_v never_o to_o justify_v the_o wicked_a then_o will_v it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o unless_o this_o so_o much_o believe_v imputative_a righteousness_n have_v that_o effectual_a influence_n as_o to_o regenerate_v and_o redeem_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n on_o which_o the_o malidiction_n lie_v he_o be_v as_o far_o to_o seek_v for_o justification_n as_o before_o for_o whilst_o a_o person_n be_v real_o guilty_a of_o a_o false_a matter_n i_o positive_o assert_v from_o the_o authority_n and_o force_n of_o this_o scripture_n they_o can_v be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o justification_n and_o as_o god_n will_v not_o justify_v the_o wicked_a so_o by_o the_o acknowledge_a reason_n of_o contrary_n the_o just_a he_o will_v never_o condemn_v but_o they_o and_o they_o only_o be_v the_o justify_v of_o god_n 15._o 2._o he_o that_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o he_o that_o condemn_v the_o just_a even_o they_o both_o be_v a_o abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n it_o will_v very_o opportune_o be_v observe_v that_o if_o its_o so_o great_a a_o abomination_n in_o man_n to_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o condemn_v the_o just_a how_o much_o great_a will_v it_o be_v in_o god_n which_o this_o doctrine_n of_o imputative_a righteousness_n necessary_o do_v imply_v that_o so_o far_o disengage_v god_n from_o the_o person_n justify_v as_o that_o his_o guilt_n shall_v not_o condemn_v he_o nor_o his_o innocency_n justify_v he_o but_o will_v not_o the_o abomination_n appear_v great_a of_o all_o when_o god_n shall_v be_v find_v condemn_v of_o the_o just_a on_o purpose_n to_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o that_o he_o be_v there_o to_o compel_v or_o else_o no_o salvation_n which_o be_v the_o tendency_n of_o their_o doctrine_n who_o imagine_v the_o righteous_a and_o merciful_a god_n to_o condemn_v and_o punish_v his_o innocent_a son_n that_o he_o have_v satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n we_o may_v be_v justify_v whilst_o unsanctified_a by_o the_o imputation_n of_o his_o perfect_a righteousness_n o_o why_o shall_v this_o horrible_a thing_n be_v contend_v for_o by_o christian_n 3._o the_o son_n shall_v not_o

righteous_a man_n turn_v away_o from_o his_o righteousness_n for_o his_o iniquity_n that_o he_o have_v do_v shall_v he_o die_v again_o when_o the_o wicked_a man_n turn_v away_o from_o his_o

be_v not_o my_o way_n equal_a if_o this_o be_v once_o equal_a it_o be_v so_o still_o for_o god_n unchangeable_a and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v draw_v this_o argument_n that_o the_o condemnation_n or_o justification_n of_o person_n be_v not_o from_o the_o imputation_n of_o a_o other_o righteousness_n but_o the_o actual_a performance_n and_o keep_n of_o god_n righteous_a statute_n or_o commandment_n otherwise_o god_n shall_v forget_v to_o be_v equal_a therefore_o how_o wicked_o unequal_a be_v those_o who_o not_o from_o scripture_n evidence_n but_o their_o dark_a conjecture_n and_o interpretation_n of_o obscure_a passage_n will_v frame_v a_o doctrine_n so_o manifest_o inconsistent_a with_o god_n most_o pure_a and_o equal_a nature_n make_v he_o to_o condemn_v the_o righteous_a to_o death_n and_o justify_v the_o wicked_a to_o life_n from_o the_o imputation_n of_o a_o other_o righteousness_n a_o most_o unequal_a way_n indeed_o 4._o not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v unto_o i_o

liken_v he_o unto_o a_o wise_a man_n which_o build_v his_o house_n upon_o a_o rock_n etc._n etc._n how_o very_o fruitful_a be_v the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n in_o testimony_n against_o this_o absurd_a and_o dangerous_a doctrine_n these_o word_n seem_v to_o import_v a_o twofold_a righteousness_n the_o first_o consist_v in_o sacrifice_n the_o last_o in_o obedience_n the_o one_o make_v a_o

be_v justify_v but_o they_o who_o do_v the_o father_n will_n because_o none_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n but_o such_o as_o be_v justify_v since_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o

poor_a soul_n shall_v awake_v pollute_v in_o his_o sin_n by_o the_o hasty_a call_v of_o death_n to_o make_v its_o appearance_n before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n where_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o

abide_v not_o in_o christ_n love_n and_o that_o none_o abide_v in_o his_o love_n who_o keep_v not_o his_o commandment_n then_o consequent_o none_o be_v justify_v but_o such_o as_o keep_v his_o

shall_v be_v so_o remote_a from_o a_o acceptance_n as_o whole_o to_o be_v cast_v out_o in_o all_o which_o christ_n be_v but_o our_o example_n 15.14_o 6._o you_o be_v my_o friend_n if_o you_o do_v

keep_v the_o commandment_n because_o none_o can_v obtain_v the_o quality_n of_o a_o friend_n and_o remain_v unjustified_a or_o be_v true_o justify_v whilst_o a_o enemy_n which_o he_o certain_o be_v

will_v be_v the_o contradiction_n and_o foul_a the_o repugnance_n to_o right_a reason_n that_o who_o have_v not_o veil_v his_o understanding_n with_o the_o dark_a suggestion_n of_o unwarrantable_a

this_o point_n for_o admit_v god_n to_o be_v a_o creditor_n or_o he_o to_o who_o the_o debt_n shall_v be_v pay_v and_o christ_n he_o that_o satisfy_v or_o pay_v it_o on_o the_o behalf_n of_o man_n the_o debtor_n this_o question_n will_v arise_v whether_o he_o pay_v debt_n as_o god_n man_n or_o both_o to_o use_v their_o own_o term_n not_o as_o god_n 1._o in_o that_o it_o divide_v the_o unity_n

that_o christ_n be_v god_n he_o consequent_o be_v to_o be_v satisfy_v and_o who_o shall_v satisfy_v his_o infinite_a justice_n 4._o but_o if_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v god_n the_o father_n christ_n be_v also_o god_n it_o will_v follow_v then_o that_o he_o have_v satisfy_v himself_o which_o can_v be_v 5._o but_o since_o god_n the_o father_n be_v once_o to_o be_v satisfy_v and_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a he_o shall_v do_v it_o himself_o nor_o yet_o the_o son_n or_o spirit_n because_o the_o same_o god_n it_o natural_o follow_v that_o the_o debt_n remain_v unpaid_a and_o these_o satisfactionist_n thus_o far_o be_v still_o at_o a_o loss_n not_o as_o man._n 6._o the_o justice_n offend_v be_v infinite_a his_o satisfaction_n ought_v to_o bear_v a_o proportion_n therewith_o which_o jesus_n christ_n as_o man_n can_v never_o pay_v he_o be_v finite_a and_o from_o a_o finite_a cause_n can_v not_o proceed_v a_o infinite_a effect_n for_o so_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o

where_o there_o be_v nothing_o due_a 4._o it_o do_v not_o only_o disacknowledge_v the_o true_a virtue_n and_o real_a intent_n of_o christ_n life_n and_o death_n but_o entire_o deprive_v god_n of_o
