in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v for_o we_o and_o that_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v shall_v be_v impute_v unto_o we_o which_o be_v far_o to_o be_v clear_v there_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v any_o more_o than_o a_o threefold_a conjunction_n between_o diverse_a distinct_a person_n the_o first_o be_v natural_a the_o second_o be_v moral_a whereunto_o i_o

asmuch_o as_o the_o child_n be_v partaker_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n he_o also_o himself_o likewise_o take_v part_n of_o the_o same_o that_o through_o death_n he_o may_v destroy_v he_o that_o have_v

eminent_a 1._o this_o conjunction_n between_o he_o and_o the_o church_n do_v not_o arise_v from_o a_o necessity_n of_o nature_n but_o from_o a_o voluntary_a act_n of_o his_o will._n the_o conjunction_n that_o be_v between_o all_o other_o be_v necessary_a every_o man_n be_v every_o man_n brother_n whether_o he_o will_v or_o no_o by_o be_v a_o man._n natural_a generation_n communicate_v to_o every_o one_o his_o subsistence_n in_o the_o same_o nature_n prevent_v all_o act_n of_o their_o own_o will_n and_o choice_n with_o the_o lord_n christ_n it_o be_v otherwise_o as_o the_o text_n affirm_v for_o such_o reason_n as_o be_v there_o express_v he_o do_v by_o a_o act_n of_o his_o own_o will_v partake_v of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n or_o come_v into_o this_o conjunction_n with_o we_o he_o do_v it_o of_o his_o own_o choice_n because_o the_o child_n do_v partake_v of_o the_o same_o he_o will_v be_v what_o the_o child_n where_o wherefore_o the_o conjunction_n of_o christ_n in_o humane_a nature_n with_o the_o church_n be_v ineffable_o distinct_a from_o that_o common_a conjunction_n which_o be_v among_o all_o other_o in_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o therefore_o although_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v meet_a among_o mere_a man_n that_o one_o shall_v act_v and_o suffer_v in_o the_o stead_n of_o other_o because_o they_o be_v all_o thus_o relate_v to_o one_o another_o as_o it_o be_v whether_o they_o will_v or_o no_o yet_o this_o can_v not_o reach_v the_o lord_n christ_n who_o in_o a_o strange_a and_o wonderful_a manner_n come_v into_o this_o conjunction_n by_o a_o meet_a act_n of_o his_o own_o 2._o he_o come_v into_o it_o on_o this_o design_n and_o for_o this_o only_a end_n neme_o that_o in_o our_o nature_n take_v to_o be_v his_o own_o he_o may_v do_v and_o suffer_v what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v and_o suffer_v for_o the_o church_n so_o it_o be_v add_v in_o the_o text_n that_o by_o death_n he_o may_v destroy_v he_o who_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o deliver_v they_o who_o for_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v subject_a to_o bondage_n this_o be_v the_o only_a end_n of_o his_o conjunction_n in_o nature_n with_o the_o church_n and_o this_o put_v the_o case_n between_o he_o and_o it_o at_o a_o vast_a distance_n from_o what_o be_v or_o may_v be_v between_o other_o men._n it_o be_v a_o foolish_a thing_n to_o argue_v that_o because_o a_o mere_a participation_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n among_o man_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o warrant_v the_o righteousness_n of_o punish_v one_o for_o another_o that_o therefore_o the_o conjunction_n in_o the_o same_o nature_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a and_o just_a foundation_n of_o his_o suffering_n for_o we_o and_o in_o our_o stead_n for_o by_o a_o act_n of_o his_o own_o will_n and_o choice_n he_o do_v partake_v of_o of_o our_o nature_n and_o that_o for_o this_o very_a end_n that_o therein_o he_o may_v suffer_v for_o we_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n express_o declare_v among_o other_o there_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v any_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n and_o so_o no_o objection_n from_o what_o be_v equal_a or_o inequal_a among_o they_o can_v arise_v against_o what_o be_v equal_a between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n and_o herein_o be_v he_o glorious_a and_o precious_a unto_o they_o that_o believe_v as_o we_o shall_v see_v immediate_o 2._o there_o be_v a_o mystical_a conjunction_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n which_o answer_v all_o the_o most_o strict_a real_a or_o moral_a union_n or_o conjunction_n between_o

the_o church_n and_o they_o may_v give_v some_o countenance_n unto_o their_o cavil_n against_o his_o obedience_n and_o suffering_n in_o our_o stead_n with_o the_o imputation_n of_o what_o he_o do_v
