of_o god_n be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o we_o and_o expose_v to_o such_o bitter_a suffering_n and_o so_o cruel_a a_o death_n for_o the_o expiation_n of_o our_o sin_n shall_v create_v in_o we_o

this_o dispensation_n of_o god_n grace_n and_o mercy_n to_o mankind_n by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n god_n seem_v to_o have_v go_v to_o the_o very_a extremity_n of_o thing_n and_o almost_o further_o than_o goodness_n and_o justice_n will_v well_o admit_v to_o afflict_v innocency_n itself_o to_o save_v the_o guilty_a and_o if_o herein_o god_n have_v express_v his_o hatred_n of_o sin_n in_o such_o a_o wonderful_a way_n of_o love_n and_o kindness_n to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n as_o look_n almost_o like_a hatred_n of_o innocency_n and_o his_o own_o son_n this_o aught_o in_o all_o

due_a to_o it_o in_o our_o own_o person_n for_o in_o this_o case_n we_o can_v only_o have_v be_v displease_v at_o ourselves_o and_o our_o sin_n as_o the_o just_a cause_n of_o our_o suffering_n but_o in_o the_o other_o we_o ought_v to_o hate_v sin_n as_o the_o unhappy_a occasion_n of_o the_o sad_a misfortune_n and_o sore_a calamity_n to_o the_o best_a man_n that_o ever_o be_v and_o to_o our_o

die_n for_o the_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n of_o sinner_n but_o not_o his_o die_v in_o their_o stead_n this_o let_v the_o word_n which_o immediate_o follow_v determine_v for_o scarce_o for_o a_o righteous_a man_n will_v one_o die_v yet_o peradventure_o for_o a_o good_a man_n one_o will_v even_o dare_v to_o die_v but_o god_n commend_v his_o love_n to_o we_o in_o that_o whilst_o we_o be_v yet_o sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o and_o now_o i_o appeal_v to_o any_o man_n of_o good_a sense_n whether_o it_o be_v not_o plain_a that_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o christ_n die_v for_o sinner_n in_o the_o same_o sense_n as_o one_o man_n be_v say_v to_o die_v for_o another_o that_o be_v to_o save_v another_o from_o death_n which_o what_o be_v it_o else_o but_o to_o die_v in_o his_o

two_o text_n be_v so_o much_o the_o strong_a because_o we_o do_v not_o here_o reason_n mere_o from_o the_o phrase_n and_o expression_n but_o from_o the_o main_a scope_n of_o our_o saviour_n discourse_n in_o the_o one_o and_o of_o st._n paul_n in_o the_o other_o for_o the_o design_n of_o both_o be_v to_o recommend_v the_o superlative_a love_n of_o christ_n to_o we_o above_o the_o great_a love_n that_o ever_o any_o man_n express_v to_o another_o the_o high_a pitch_n that_o human_a affection_n do_v ever_o rise_v to_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o his_o friend_n but_o the_o son_n of_o god_n lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o his_o enemy_n scarce_o say_v st._n paul_n will_v one_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o a_o righteous_a man_n that_o be_v for_o one_o who_o be_v but_o strict_o just_a and_o honest_a and_o do_v no_o body_n wrong_v but_o for_o a_o good_a man_n that_o be_v for-one_a that_o be_v kind_a and_o beneficial_a to_o all_o and_o have_v oblige_v mankind_n by_o great_a benefit_n some_o one_o may_v be_v find_v that_o will_v lay_v down_o his_o life_n to_o save_v the_o life_n of_o such_o a_o person_n but_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n have_v go_v far_o beyond_o this_o he_o die_v for_o sinner_n for_o those_o who_o be_v neither_o good_a man_n nor_o righteous_a but_o god_n commend_v his_o love_n to_o we_o in_o that_o whilst_o we_o be_v yet_o sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o now_o where_o do_v the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n lie_v if_o not_o in_o this_o that_o christ_n have_v do_v that_o for_o we_o who_o be_v enemy_n and_o sinner_n which_o some_o very_a few_o person_n in_o the_o world_n have_v do_v for_o their_o friend_n or_o for_o some_o very_o eminent_o good_a man_n and_o what_o be_v that_o why_o they_o have_v lay_v down_o their_o life_n in_o their_o stead_n and_o so_o christ_n have_v do_v for_o we_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o very_a plain_n that_o i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n be_v possible_a to_o be_v avoid_v it_o be_v evident_a then_o from_o scripture_n that_o christ_n die_v not_o only_o for_o our_o advantage_n but_o in_o our_o stead_n as_o true_o and_o real_o as_o any_o man_n ever_o do_v or_o can_v die_v for_o another_o who_o lay_v down_o his_o own_o life_n to_o save_v another_o from_o death_n for_o if_o christ_n have_v not_o die_v we_o have_v perish_v everlasting_o and_o because_o he_o die_v we_o be_v save_v from_o eternal_a death_n and_o misery_n and_o though_o this_o be_v no_o where_o in_o scripture_n speak_v of_o by_o the_o name_n or_o term_v of_o satisfaction_n yet_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n which_o sure_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o effect_n with_o satisfaction_n for_o as_o we_o be_v sinner_n

declare_v himself_o full_o please_v and_o content_v with_o it_o why_o it_o may_v not_o proper_o enough_o be_v call_v payment_n or_o satisfaction_n i_o confess_v i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o understand_v man_n may_v eternal_o wrangle_v about_o any_o thing_n but_o what_o a_o frivolous_a contention_n what_o a_o trifle_n in_o serious_a matter_n what_o barratry_a in_o divinity_n be_v this_o not_o that_o

and_o esteem_v with_o god_n and_o his_o voluntary_a sacrifice_n of_o himself_o so_o well-pleasing_a to_o he_o that_o he_o thereupon_o enter_v into_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o mercy_n with_o
