IV. Of the Materiall Cause of Iustification The Materiall cause of Iustificatiō Actiuely taken THe MATERIAL cause of our Iustification Actiuelie considered on Gods part is the Righteousnesse of CHRIST Rom. 4.6 called also the Righteousnesse of God Rom. 3.22 the gift of Righteousnes Rom. 5.17 that Righteousnes which is of God Phil. 3.9 the Righteousnesse of Faith and the Righteousnesse of the Gospell 2 It is termed the Righteousnesse of Christ Note because Christ is the Efficient cause thereof the Righteousnesse of God because GOD giueth the same freely and imputeth it vnto vs approueth it in his iudgement the Righteousnesse of Faith because we attaine vnto it or apprehend it by Faith onely and the Righteousnes of the Gospell because it is made manifest and reuealed in the Gospell The Righteousnes of Christ hath two parts 3 This Righteousnes being but one in number hath two parts 1. The Perfect fulfilling of the law of God 2. The Voluntarie payment of the punishment for our disobedience I. Fulfilling of the Law which is two-fold 4 THe Perfect fulfilling of the law is the full and exact conformitie of Christs humane nature and actions with the will of God reuealed in both tables of the Decalogue 5 And of this Perfect Conformity there are two members 1. Innocencie 2. Sanctitie or holinesse 6 The Innocencie of Christ 1. Innocencie is that immunity or freedome from Sin either Originall or Actuall For Christ neither had nor committed any sinne for hee was both cōceiued and borne without sinne and all his life time he neuer transgressed against the law of God either by fact or word or will or cogitation or by any euill concupiscence Ioh. 8.46.2 Corinth 5.21 1. Pet. 1.19 1. Pet. 2.22 Heb. 4.15 7 The Sanctitie of Christ 2. Sanctity is that integritie or purity which Christ had from the first moment of his conceptiō and retained in all his cogitatiōs words deeds and desires vntill his verie death vpon the Crosse Luk. 1.35 Act. 3.14 Act. 4.27.30 1. Ioh. 2.20 Apoc. 3.7 II. Bearing of the punishment 8 The Voluntary payment of the punishment for our disobedience is the whole humiliation of Christ from the beginning of his Conceptiō vntill his Glorification Philip. 2.7.8 Rom. 8.3 Galath 3.13 alibi passim Note well 9 Of these two mēbers cōsisteth that perfect and euery way absolute Righteousnesse whereby wee are iustified which both the Iustice of God the Office of a Mediatour and Saluation of Man necessarily required 10 I. The Iustice of God Because the Iustice of GOD could not otherwise haue been satisfied but by perfect fulfilling the Law and bearing the punishmēt which we had deserued for the breach thereof 11. II. The Office of a Mediatour Because our Suretie was reallie to pay the full price of our Redemption both actiuely by doing passiuely by suffring those things which we ought to haue performed 12 III. The Saluation of Man Because wee could neuer haue been redeemed otherwise than by satisfying the law and iustice of God by the perfect obedience and death of our Surety and Mediatour The Materiall cause Passiuely taken 13 The Materiall Cause of our Iustification Passiuely taken are all the Elect Rom. 8.33 being first in the state of Nature vngodlie Rom. 4.5 God iustifieth the vngodly and then in the state of supernaturall Grace beleeuing Rom. 3.22 The righteousnes of God by the faith of Iesus Christ is manifested vnto all and vpon all that beleeue 14 So much for the Materiall Cause of our Iustification Now of the Formall A PRAYER FOR liuely sense and assurance of Justification O Most merciful Lord Iesus Christ which shalt iudge al my words and workes or rather answere both for mee and them so direct and order and appoint my hart my thought tōgue and labours to thy honour and glorie that as thou art the Way the Truth and the Life so I doe nothing but walke in thy way think of thy trueth and aime at thy life that by a godlie

Faith apprehēding the imputed righteousnes of Christ in Iustification 40 If it bee demanded How the Merite of Christ and the Grace of God Question which is contrary vnto merit may consist together 41 I Answere Answere The Merite of Christ not our owne merites may wel stand together with the Grace of GOD. For Christs satisfaction wherby he satisfied the Iustice of his Father is that thing that meriteth the Grace of God for vs. 42 But if you speake of our owne merits thē certainely they cannot stand together with the Grace of God but are quite contrarie vnto it The Organicall Efficient two fold 43 The Organicall Efficient Cause of Iustification is two-fold Instrumentall or Administeriall 44 The Instrumental Cause which exhibiteth the benefit of Iustificatiō vnto vs 1. Instrumentall is the Gospell and Sacramēts wherby the benefits of Christ are offered conferred and sealed vnto vs. 45 The Gospell is called the Gospell of Grace Act. 20.24 because it declareth and offereth the Grace of God vnto vs also the Word of Grace Act. 20.32 the Word of Saluation Act. 13.26 the Word of Life Phil. 2.16 And Paul saith The Gospell of Christ is the power of God vnto saluation to euery one that beleeueth Rom. 1.16 46 Of Baptisme the Apostle speaketh Christ sanctifieth cleanseth his Church by the washing of water through the Word Ephes 5.26 Also Hee saued vs by the washing of the new birth and the renuing of the holy Ghost And Peter saith Baptisme saueth vs by the resurrection of Iesus Christ. 1. Pet. 3.21 47 And of the Lords Supper Christ testifieth that we receiue his body which was giuen for vs Luk. 22.19 drinke his blood that is shed for many for the remission of sinnes Mat. 26.27.28 48 If it bee demaunded How the Sacraments are instruments to conferre grace 49 I Answere The Sacraments conferre grace Answere How the Sacramēts conferre Grace because they are a meanes to giue and exhibite to the beleeuing mind Christ with his benefits and this they do by their signification 50 For they serue as a particular and infallible certificate to assure such as bee partakers thereof of the forgiuenesse of their sins and of euerlasting saluation 51 Also they conferre grace as the Kings letters are said to saue the life of a malefactor when they doe but signifie to him and others that the Kings pleasure is to shew fauour 52 Againe they may be said to confer grace because they are a tokē or pledge of the Grace of GOD and by this pledge Faith is confirmed which is an instrument to apprehend or receiue grace 53 A King saith vnto his Subiects Note He that brings the head of such a Traytour shall haue a thousand pounds He that hath the head may say Heere is a thousand pounds because it is vnto him a pledge vpon the Kings word of the receipt of so much 54 Lastly the Word of God conferres grace for it is the power of God vnto saluatiō to them that beleeue which it doth by signifying the wil of God by the eare to the mind Now euery Sacrament is the Word of GOD made visible to the eye the Sacramēts therfore conferre grace by vertue of their signification and by reason they are a pledge by the appointment of GOD of his mercy and goodnesse 55 If it be said Obiect The Sacraments are not onlie signes and seales but also instruments to conuey the grace of God to vs. 56 I Answere Ans The Sacraments are not Instruments hauing the grace of God tied vnto them or shut vp in them but instruments to which grace is present by assistance in the right vse thereof 57 Because in and with the right vse of the Sacraments God conferres grace and thus they are instruments no otherwise that is morall not physicall instruments 58 The Administeriall Cause of Iustification 2. Administeriall are aswell the Ministers of the Word 1 Cor. 3.9 1. Tim. 4.16 Ioh. 20.23 as also the Martyrs of Christ Dan. 12.3 who by their testimony and example teach that there is no righteousnes which may consist before the tribunall of GOD but onely the righteousnesse of Iesus Christ 59 And so much for the Efficient Cause of Iustification Actiuelie taken on Gods part The Efficient Cause on Mans part is Faith 60 Now on Mans part Iustification Passiuelie taken the Efficient cause of it is altogether Instrumentall and this is Faith by which not for which wee are said to be iustified aswell in regard of the Correlatiue thereof as also of the Contrarie the Law and good workes 61 In regard of the Correlatiue to wit Christ his Merits because the whole forme of Iustifying Faith is sited in Relation not in the qualitie or nature thereof seeing wee are iustified by Faith as it is relatiuely applied vnto his correlatiue 62 In regard of the Contrarie because those good workes and conformitie vnto the Law required in the person of a iustified Man are worthily excluded frō the merit and act of Iustification 63 But to speake more plainely of this point Faith what it is Faith is a confident apprehension of the mercy of GOD through the redemption of Iesus Christ in the promise of the Gospell The parts of Faith 64 The parts of Faith are three 1. Knowledge in the mind and vnderstanding 2. Assent in the will 3. Confidence in the heart 65 These three acts may be considered distinctly seeing a man may know a thing and yet not assent thereunto beleeue the same to bee true and yet not make it his own by speciall application confidence which cannot consist without knowledge and assent 66 These three parts are excellently wel laid downe in the 14. chap. of S. Iohn Beleeuest thou that I am in the Father and the Father is in mee this belongeth vnto the first part Beleeue me that I am in the Father and the Father in me this vnto the second Beleeue you in God beleeue also in me and this vnto the third 67 So then Faith in Christ is not to know or beleeue there is a Christ nor yet to beleeue Christ but to beleeue in Christ The wicked beleeue there is a Christ Hypocrites beleeue Christ But the Elect only beleeue in Christ that is put their whole trust and confidence in him 68 Wherefore it is manifest that iustifying faith is not a bare knowledge assent but that the chiefest part thereof is Confidence wherby the sinner apprehēdeth and particularly applieth vnto himselfe the promises of the Gospel Note well 69 Hence is that Theologicall Axiome Some things are spokē of Faith in respect of knowledge and assent and some things in respect of Confidence 70 In respect of Assent Faith hath for the Obiect thereof all the holy Scriptures the Law the Gospel which faith firmely beleeueth to be most true The proper Obiect of Faith 71 In respect of Confidence the proper Obiect of faith
they doe repent what shall I bee afraid to ask thee Rule my paths O Lord enlarge my heart When I goe let my gate bee straight when I runne let me not fall for I am a stranger vpon earth vnderstand not mine own way I would walk at libertie like thy seruant Dauid What saith my Lord speake now for thy seruant heareth My Sonne walke simplie after my word for this is the plaine way this is the sure way Heere thou shalt haue no lets to stay thee no encombrances to entangle thee Goe forward straight and turne not libertie is in thy way and Life is in the end But if thou looke back or stay or turne to the right hand or to the left then thou fallest into a hedge of thornes nets snares take hold vpon thee A double heart and a man that goeth two waies shall not prosper I am worshipped of the simple and open hearted Martha is troubled with much busines but Marie hath all things at my feete therefore haue I separated thee if thou wilt because thou canst not serue two masters It is true Lord for I am neuer distracted in minde but when I am carefull about manie things For so long as thou art with me I am thine but when I bring in sin then am I straight dispossessed of my soul If I loue any thing besides thee it vpbraideth me if I speake or doe any thing without thy counsaile straight I am trapt in some errour wearie of my selfe and vnapt for thee It is wōderfull to thinke how my heart is hardened my vnderstāding blinded my teares dried vp when thou turnest thy face but from mee and Sin preuaileth against mee Had I the spirit to discerne euery thing at his value I should loue God before all which is best of all and Man after GOD which is next to GOD. How is my Soule troubled for this and my heart rent in twaine vntil my flesh consent and all my mēbers agree together to chuse that which hee hath commanded and to forgo that which he hath forbidden Before I was afflicted I went astray like a thing vntamed it is good for me that I haue bin touched that I may learne thy Statutes Saue me now O Lord I pray thee Now Lord I pray thee giue mee vnderstanding I haue sinned I am sorie forgiue mee Away from me all you that worke vanitie for the Lord is my GOD if I regard wickednesse in my heart he will not heare me O thou eternall Goodnesse which art good to all which guidest those that seeke thee which enlightenest those that see thee and which sauest those that loue thee endue mee with thy gracious and holie Spirit which may subdue all my carnall affections which may rectifie my reason regenerate my will and purifie my nature that at all times when thou shalt call vpon me I may be readie with Dauid to answer Loe I come Praised bee God Amen Amen CHAP. IX Of the Effects of Iustification The Effects of Iustification THe Effects of Iustificatiō are Peace of Conscience Rom. 5.1 Accesse vnto God Rom. 5.2 Ephes 3.12 Adoptiō into the sonnes of God Rom. 8.15.16.17 Galat. 3.26 Ephes 1.5 Ioh. 1.12 Regeneration Ioh. 5.11 Externall life c. Rom. 6.22.23 al which may bee reduced vnto this one Glorification Of Glorification 2 Glorification is the execution of the sentence of life pronounced by God in Iustification 1. Pet. 1.2.2 Pet. 1.4 3 In Glorification we must cōsider a twofold Application the one of God the other of such as are to be Glorified 4 The Application of God is that whereby God ioineth Christ vnto vs as the Head to the rest of the body whereby he also giueth vs his holy Spirit 5 In this Application God ioineth Christ vnto vs being first Dead for mortification of our flesh or old man secōdly quickned or raised from Death for viuification of our Spirit or new man 6 The Application of such as are to be Glorified is that whereby we apprehend Christ being ioyned vnto vs in his Death and in his Life by faith wrought by the holy Ghost 7 And in this Application both of God of our selues whereby Christ is ioyned vnto vs as Head vnto the Body is manifestly deprehended our Glorification or renewing 8 For by the same act as it were and at the same instance as soone as euer Christ is ioined vnto vs as Head we are presentlie made his Members and so renewed by Regeneration or new birth Glorificatition twofold 9 Glorificatiō is twofold Inchoatiue Glorification Ioh. 3.3 Consummatiue Glorification Matth. 19.28 1. Inchoatiue 10 Inchoatiue Glorification is that whereby we being vnited vnto Christ our corrupt Nature euen in this life beginneth to be renewed by the holy Ghost according vnto the Image of God 1. Pet. 1.2.2 Pet. 1.4 Tit. 3.5 Eph. 4.23.24 11 The same is also termed Regeneration Sanctification But Paul simplie calleth it Glorification Rom. 8.30 that is a glorious renewing of our Nature an abolishing of our corrupt Nature and making of vs fit for eternall Glory Regeneration hath two parts 12 Of this Inchoatiue Glorificatiō or Regeneration there are two parts 1. Mortification or killing of the Olde Man that is Hatred of sinne 2. Viuification or quickening of the New Man that is Loue of Righteousnes Old Man what 13 By Olde Man I meane the whole Nature of man aswel soule as body addicted vnto sinne and death or the vnregenerated part and corrupt nature of man termed also the Outward Man Flesh Ioh. 3.6 Rom. 8.6 also the Body of sinne Rom. 6.6 the sinfull body of flesh Coloss 2.11 14 Mortification of the Olde-Man 1. Mortification is that wherby the holy Ghost by litle and litle worketh in vs a detestation and hatred of sinne and exstinguisheth the vigour of our corrupt nature in vs that it might not bring foorth most bitter fruits to condemnation New Man what 15 By New-Man is meant the Nature of man that beginneth to cease from sinne or that part of man that is regenerate and restored according vnto the Image of God termed also the Inward man Rom. 7.22 and the hidden man of the heart 1. Pet. 3.4 also Spirit Ioh. 3.6 The Viuification of the New-Man 2. Viuification is when we are raised vp into a new and spirituall life hauing the habite of Charitie infused into vs that wee might liue vnto righteousnes Eph. 2.4.5 Ioh. 5.11 17 Againe Regeneration is as well of the Soule as of the Bodie 1. Thess 5.23.1 Cor. 6.20 Regeneration of the Soule 18 Regeneratiō of the Soule is that whereby the faculties of the soul are renewed 19 Of the Regeneration of the Soule there are two parts 1. Illumination 2. The gift of Repentance 20 For as there are two parts of the Soule the Vnderstanding and the Will so in both Regeneration is required Illumination is of the Vnderstanding Coloss 3.10 and Repentance of the Will Ephes
