impute_v to_o we_o for_o righteousness_n and_o that_o be_v our_o justification_n i_o suppose_v here_o my_o sheet_n will_v be_v fill_v and_o that_o i_o have_v room_n for_o no_o more_o but_o this_o prayer_n that_o it_o may_v please_v the_o god_n of_o truth_n to_o inlighten_v you_o by_o the_o scripture_n so_o as_o to_o have_v the_o knowledge_n and_o such_o a_o sense_n of_o this_o righteousness_n of_o god_n on_o your_o spirit_n that_o fall_v down_o and_o blessing_n his_o name_n with_o i_o from_o the_o bottom_n of_o your_o heart_n for_o this_o that_o it_o be_v not_o by_o a_o righteousness_n of_o work_n but_o by_o a_o righteousness_n the_o fail_n whereof_o be_v pardon_v and_o the_o little_a how_o little_a soever_o if_o sincere_a do_v accept_v through_o christ_n satisfaction_n and_o

mr._n williams_n to_o withdraw_v one_o of_o these_o passage_n they_o except_v against_o and_o for_o the_o brethren_n to_o withdraw_v the_o other_o exception_n as_o for_o the_o first_o passage_n whatsoever_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o commutation_n of_o person_n the_o brethren_n understand_v thus_o much_o that_o christ_n put_v on_o the_o person_n of_o sinner_n for_o these_o be_v their_o word_n now_o mr._n williams_n i_o suppose_v deny_v this_o and_o they_o will_v have_v he_o retract_v his_o denial_n by_o person_n therefore_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v signify_v the_o person_n of_o the_o sinner_n himself_o suppositum_fw-la rationale_fw-la or_o the_o quality_n or_o condition_n of_o a_o sinner_n as_o when_o a_o man_n act_v a_o drunkard_n on_o the_o

quatenus_fw-la he_o and_o we_o be_v supposita_fw-la rationalia_fw-la and_o in_o this_o first_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n mr._n williams_n allow_v a_o commutation_n of_o person_n so_o as_o when_o the_o suffer_a be_v christ_n the_o benefit_n be_v we_o which_o be_v that_o grotius_n intend_v only_o against_o the_o socinian_o but._n mr._n williams_n deny_v that_o christ_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o quality_n or_o condition_n of_o sinner_n which_o be_v that_o doctrine_n he_o suppose_v dr._n crisp_n to_o maintain_v and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o second_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n he_o deny_v what_o they_o affirm_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o put_v on_o the_o person_n of_o sinner_n christ_n do_v not_o represent_v or_o act_v the_o part_n of_o sinner_n nor_o be_v look_v on_o by_o god_n as_o a_o sinner_n when_o our_o surety_n a_o commutatio_fw-la hominum_fw-la there_o be_v no_o commutatio_fw-la actionum_fw-la he_o represent_v we_o that_o be_v sinner_n he_o represent_v not_o the_o sinner_n a_o sinner_n be_v one_o that_o break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n do_v not_o so_o he_o act_v no_o such_o part_n and_o god_n never_o account_v that_o he_o do_v and_o there_o be_v therefore_o no_o change_n of_o he_o of_o the_o distinction_n of_o these_o term_n be_v not_o make_v so_o far_o as_o i_o know_v by_o any_o divine_n which_o excuse_v the_o brethren_n citation_n of_o one_o for_o the_o other_o but_o i_o use_v it_o as_o peculiar_a for_o explain_v mr._n williams_n sense_n so_o that_o if_o any_o shall_v still_o choose_v to_o confound_v they_o and_o express_v our_o sense_n otherwise_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o i_o and_o may_v be_v to_o he_o person_n though_o a_o change_n of_o person_n according_a to_o mr._n williams_n when_o in_o this_o sense_n therefore_o of_o the_o word_n person_n he_o be_v in_o the_o right_n let_v we_o consider_v further_o as_o to_o the_o other_o sense_n of_o it_o as_o it_o signify_v our_o humane_a nature_n not_o our_o sinful_a nature_n or_o sinful_a quality_n that_o though_o christ_n do_v sustain_v our_o person_n give_v the_o brethren_n liberty_n of_o such_o word_n as_o to_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v in_o our_o stead_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o one_o such_o thing_n wherein_o we_o reciprocal_o sustain_v his_o person_n as_o he_o do_v we_o nothing_o whereby_o we_o be_v to_o be_v say_v or_o account_v to_o have_v do_v what_o he_o do_v and_o therefore_o do_v i_o in_o my_o late_a book_n pacif._n pag._n 39_o say_v that_o here_o be_v only_o a_o change_n of_o person_n but_o not_o of_o person_n a_o strange_a thing_n real_o that_o when_o the_o same_o sense_n be_v intend_v by_o i_o and_o mr._n william_n the_o same_o distinction_n use_v and_o both_o say_v true_a yet_o the_o term_n of_o that_o distinction_n be_v contrary_o apply_v by_o we_o i_o must_v desire_v mr._n williams_n therefore_o to_o consider_v whether_o the_o use_n of_o the_o word_n person_n be_v not_o foreign_a to_o our_o divine_n and_o it_o be_v not_o better_a to_o put_v what_o he_o mean_v in_o such_o term_n as_o be_v easy_a of_o reception_n and_o that_o may_v be_v only_o by_o distinguish_v of_o christ_n take_v on_o he_o our_o person_n or_o bear_v our_o sin_n in_o regard_n to_o the_o fault_n or_o the_o punishment_n and_o to_o say_v he_o sustain_v not_o our_o person_n or_o take_v on_o he_o our_o sin_n quoad_fw-la reatum_fw-la culpae_fw-la in_o these_o know_a

his_o book_n there_o be_v not_o a_o change_n of_o person_n and_o grant_v a_o change_n of_o person_n so_o long_o as_o he_o maintain_v still_o no_o change_n of_o person_n for_o his_o business_n be_v

for_o peace_n insomuch_o as_o we_o still_o say_v that_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o be_v account_v by_o god_n as_o do_v and_o suffer_v in_o our_o room_n that_o we_o may_v have_v the_o

there_o a_o change_n of_o person_n but_o not_o of_o person_n whereby_o i_o mean_v plain_o not_o such_o a_o change_n as_o to_o make_v christ_n righteousness_n legal_o or_o in_o law-sence_n we_o or_o
