be_v to_o deny_v ourselves_o and_o all_o we_o do_v to_o do_v no_o good_a thing_n for_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v rest_v in_o it_o or_o rely_v upon_o it_o when_o we_o have_v do_v but_o after_o

heaven_n and_o our_o sermon_n when_o we_o have_v do_v any_o work_n of_o devotion_n to_o see_v hell_n between_o heaven_n and_o all_o our_o service_n if_o god_n shall_v mark_v what_o be_v amiss_o in_o

esteem_v worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n before_o god_n bestow_v he_o and_o the_o way_n so_o to_o esteem_v of_o he_o be_v to_o feel_v ourselves_o the_o great_a of_o all_o sinner_n and_o when_o the_o

understanding_n of_o the_o first_o we_o must_v note_v first_o that_o christ_n humane_a nature_n be_v by_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n exalt_v unto_o many_o dignity_n which_o to_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n beside_o be_v utter_o incommunicable_a as_o the_o communication_n of_o property_n the_o adoration_n of_o angel_n the_o primogeniture_n of_o the_o creature_n the_o cooperation_n with_o the_o deity_n in_o many_o mighty_a work_n the_o satisfaction_n of_o a_o infinite_a justice_n by_o a_o finite_a passion_n etc._n etc._n exalt_v likewise_o it_o be_v by_o his_o spiritual_a unction_n above_o all_o his_o fellow_n with_o that_o unmeasurable_a fullness_n of_o grace_n as_o wonderful_o surpass_v the_o unite_a and_o cumulate_v perfection_n of_o all_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n second_o we_o must_v note_v likewise_o that_o all_o these_o thing_n christ_n receive_v for_o the_o work_n of_o man_n redemption_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v they_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o be_v most_o suitable_a and_o convenient_a for_o the_o execution_n of_o that_o work_n now_o christ_n be_v to_o fulfil_v that_o work_n by_o a_o way_n of_o suffering_n and_o obedience_n by_o death_n to_o destroy_v he_o that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n as_o david_n by_o goliahs_n sword_n slay_v he_o that_o be_v master_n of_o the_o sword_n as_o there_o fall_v a_o mighty_a tempestuous_a wind_n upon_o the_o red_a sea_n whereby_o the_o passage_n be_v open_v for_o israel_n to_o go_v out_o of_o egypt_n into_o canaan_n so_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v tear_v and_o divide_v by_o his_o suffering_n that_o so_o there_o may_v be_v a_o passage_n for_o we_o to_o god_n through_o that_o sea_n of_o wrath_n which_o be_v between_o our_o egypt_n and_o our_o canaan_n our_o sin_n and_o our_o salvation_n here_o then_o be_v two_o general_a rule_n to_o be_v observe_v concern_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ._n first_o that_o the_o oeconomie_n or_o dispensation_n of_o his_o mediatorship_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o all_o that_o he_o suffer_v so_o much_o as_o that_o require_v he_o do_v suffer_v and_o more_o he_o do_v not_o for_o though_o he_o suffer_v as_o man_n yet_o he_o suffer_v not_o because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n but_o because_o he_o be_v a_o mediator_n second_o in_o as_o much_o as_o a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o sinner_n be_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o separate_a from_o sinner_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v a_o sinner_n he_o have_v be_v one_o of_o the_o party_n and_o not_o a_o mediator_n therefore_o none_o of_o those_o suffering_n which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o his_o holiness_n and_o by_o consequence_n unserviceable_a to_o the_o administration_n of_o his_o office_n can_v belong_v unto_o he_o such_o thing_n then_o as_o do_v no_o way_n prejudice_v the_o plenitude_n of_o his_o grace_n the_o union_n of_o his_o nature_n the_o quality_n of_o his_o mediation_n such_o thing_n as_o be_v suitable_a to_o his_o person_n and_o requisite_a for_o our_o pardon_n such_o as_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o and_o such_o as_o be_v necessary_a for_o we_o those_o thing_n he_o suffer_v as_o the_o punishment_n of_o our_o sin_n now_o punishment_n be_v of_o several_a sort_n some_o be_v sin_n some_o only_a from_o sin_n some_o thing_n in_o several_a respect_n be_v both_o sin_n and_o punishment_n 10._o in_o relation_n to_o the_o law_n as_o deviation_n so_o they_o be_v sin_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o order_n and_o disposition_n of_o god_n providence_n so_o they_o be_v punishment_n as_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n other_o punishment_n be_v from_o sin_n and_o in_o this_o regard_n sin_n be_v two_o way_n considerable_a either_o as_o inherent_a or_o as_o impute_v from_o sin_n as_o inherent_a or_o from_o the_o consciousness_n of_o sin_n in_o a_o man_n self_n do_v arise_v remorse_n or_o torment_n and_o the_o worm_n of_o conscience_n again_o sin_n as_o impute_a may_v be_v consider_v two_o way_n either_o it_o be_v impute_v upon_o a_o ground_n in_o nature_n because_o the_o person_n to_o who_o it_o be_v impute_v be_v natural_o one_o with_o he_o that_o original_o commit_v it_o and_o so_o it_o do_v seminal_o descend_v and_o be_v derive_v upon_o they_o thus_o adam_n sin_n of_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n be_v impute_v unto_o we_o and_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o on_o we_o derive_v namely_o the_o privation_n of_o god_n image_n and_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n or_o else_o it_o be_v impute_v upon_o a_o ground_n of_o voluntary_a contract_n vadimonie_n or_o susception_n so_o that_o the_o guilt_n thereupon_o grow_v be_v not_o a_o derive_v but_o a_o assume_v guilt_n which_o do_v not_o bring_v with_o it_o any_o desert_n or_o worthiness_n to_o suffer_v but_o only_o a_o obligation_n and_o obnoxiousnesse_n thereunto_o as_o if_o a_o sober_a and_o honest_a person_n be_v surety_n for_o a_o prodigal_a and_o luxurious_a man_n who_o spend_v his_o estate_n upon_o course_n of_o intemperance_n and_o excess_n have_v disable_v himself_o to_o pay_v any_o of_o his_o debt_n the_o one_o do_v for_o his_o vicious_a disability_n deserve_v imprisonment_n unto_o which_o the_o other_o be_v as_o liable_a as_o he_o though_o without_o any_o such_o personal_a desert_n now_o than_o the_o punishment_n which_o christ_n suffer_v be_v only_o such_o as_o agree_v unto_o sin_n thus_o impute_v 36_o as_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v unto_o christ._n again_o in_o punishment_n we_o be_v to_o distinguish_v between_o punishment_n inflict_v from_o without_o and_o punishment_n ingenerate_v and_o immediate_o result_v from_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o person_n that_o suffer_v or_o between_o the_o passion_n and_o action_n of_o the_o man_n that_o be_v punish_v punishment_n inflict_v be_v

lay_v upon_o the_o soul_n or_o body_n of_o a_o man_n punishment_n ingenerate_v be_v those_o which_o grow_v out_o of_o the_o weakness_n and_o wickedness_n of_o the_o person_n lie_v under_o the_o sore_a and_o invincible_a pressure_n of_o those_o pain_n which_o be_v thus_o inflict_v as_o blasphemy_n despair_n and_o the_o worm_n of_o conscience_n in_o one_o word_n some_o evil_n of_o punishment_n be_v aug._n vicious_a either_o formal_o in_o themselves_o or_o fundamental_o and_o by_o way_n of_o connotation_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o original_n thereof_o in_o the_o person_n suffer_v they_o other_o

and_o of_o this_o sort_n only_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o christ._n now_o these_o punishment_n which_o christ_n thus_o suffer_v be_v either_o inchoate_n or_o consummate_v
