righteousness_n chap._n v._o of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n as_o this_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o law_n of_o light_n and_o liberty_n so_o it_o be_v a_o righteous_a law_n that_o be_v a_o law_n work_v righteousness_n in_o those_o in_o who_o it_o be_v make_v soul_n partaker_n of_o its_o own_o righteousness_n which_o be_v indeed_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v the_o righeeousnesse_n of_o god_n in_o he_o 2_o cor._n 5._o 21._o now_o the_o righteousness_n of_o this_o law_n may_v be_v produce_v unto_o these_o two_o head_n 1._o a_o internal_a righteousness_n as_o it_o have_v relation_n to_o god_n 2._o a_o external_a righteousness_n as_o it_o have_v relation_n to_o man_n first_o as_o it_o have_v relation_n to_o god_n and_o so_o it_o be_v a_o righteousness_n in_o the_o spirit_n this_o may_v be_v consider_v likewise_o under_o these_o two_o head_n 1._o as_o it_o be_v more_o external_a 2._o as_o it_o be_v more_o internal_a first_o as_o it_o be_v more_o external_a yes_o spiritual_a and_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n too_o because_o prepare_v by_o the_o father_n for_o sinner_n bring_v home_o and_o apply_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o this_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o relation_n to_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o they_o in_o lay_v help_n upon_o one_o that_o be_v mighty_a in_o lay_v iniquity_n upon_o christ_n and_o condemn_v it_o there_o that_o so_o through_o the_o apprehend_n and_o apply_v of_o the_o father_n love_n in_o this_o great_a work_n the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o conscience_n through_o the_o soul_n apprehend_v the_o father_n do_v that_o in_o christ_n for_o it_o which_o itself_o can_v not_o do_v for_o what_o the_o law_n can_v not_o do_v in_o that_o it_o be_v weak_a through_o the_o flesh_n god_n send_v his_o own_o son_n in_o the_o likeness_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o for_o sin_n condemn_v sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n rom_n 8._o 3._o herein_o the_o soul_n behold_v and_o enjoy_v love_n from_o the_o father_n see_v itself_o now_o to_o be_v justify_v and_o that_o by_o grace_n from_o all_o thing_n by_o which_o it_o can_v not_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n this_o be_v a_o more_o external_a righteousness_n because_o wrought_v for_o we_o without_o we_o yet_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o prepare_v by_o god_n eye_v and_o apply_v in_o the_o light_n and_o power_n of_o the_o spirit_n 2._o that_o which_o i_o call_v a_o more_o spiritual_a righteousness_n it_o be_v a_o righteousness_n wrought_v within_o we_o by_o this_o law_n of_o righteousness_n and_o this_o righteousness_n wrought_v for_o we_o without_o we_o though_o declare_v in_o we_o be_v but_o a_o precedent_n to_o this_o righteousness_n wrought_v within_o that_o so_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n may_v be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o who_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n this_o be_v that_o mystery_n of_o christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n the_o form_n of_o christ_n within_o that_o be_v when_o the_o soul_n have_v experience_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n within_o as_o be_v and_o be_v in_o christ_n work_v the_o soul_n into_o a_o spiritual_a conformity_n to_o christ_n grow_v up_o in_o he_o till_o it_o come_v to_o the_o same_o fullness_n to_o the_o same_o perfection_n but_o both_o these_o i_o have_v in_o a_o measure_n unfold_v in_o another_o treatise_n and_o therefore_o pass_v it_o with_o the_o more_o brevity_n in_o this_o place_n only_o i_o shall_v answer_v one_o objection_n by_o the_o way_n and_o so_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o this_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n obj._n some_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v that_o they_o know_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o this_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n justify_v this_o external_a form_n of_o christ_n they_o know_v christ_n no_o other_o way_n but_o as_o he_o die_v at_o jerusalem_n and_o that_o this_o talk_n of_o christ_n within_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o mystery_n if_o not_o a_o delusion_n for_o christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o people_n no_o otherwise_o but_o by_o faith_n that_o be_v soul_n believe_v only_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o they_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o form_v of_o christ_n in_o they_o till_o the_o day_n of_o resurrection_n of_o their_o body_n from_o the_o grave_n answ_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o its_o true_a this_o form_n of_o christ_n within_o be_v a_o mystery_n indeed_o the_o complete_a of_o it_o will_v be_v the_o top_n and_o height_n of_o all_o mystery_n this_o be_v the_o mystery_n christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n that_o be_v the_o say_a spirit_n and_o power_n conform_v soul_n to_o christ_n in_o death_n resurrection_n and_o life_n and_o this_o be_v the_o more_o mysterious_a man_n of_o sin_n the_o antichrist_n who_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n this_o mystery_n of_o christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o although_o some_o may_v abuse_v this_o truth_n this_o mystery_n be_v delude_v only_o with_o the_o notion_n of_o it_o yet_o let_v other_o take_v heed_n they_o abuse_v it_o not_o through_o ignorance_n 2._o i_o answer_v that_o whereas_o the_o scripture_n say_v christ_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o faith_n it_o be_v true_a but_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a dwell_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o heart_n by_o faith_n the_o first_o be_v when_o the_o soul_n see_v and_o believe_v what_o god_n in_o christ_n have_v do_v for_o it_o and_o second_o when_o the_o soul_n see_v and_o believe_v that_o this_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o same_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o christ_n dwell_v in_o he_o as_o a_o law_n of_o light_n life_n and_o liberty_n in_o he_o see_v the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n free_v it_o from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n for_o the_o soul_n teach_v of_o god_n see_v and_o believe_v both_o these_o to_o be_v a_o truth_n christ_n for_o and_o christ_n in_o the_o soul_n this_o we_o shall_v find_v clear_o hold_v forth_o in_o scripture_n not_o set_v up_o the_o one_o in_o deny_v the_o other_o but_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o scripture_n present_v you_o with_o a_o death_n with_o christ_n and_o resurrection_n with_o he_o rom._n 5._o phil._n 3._o 10._o with_o a_o life_n with_o he_o john_n 14._o 19_o because_o i_o live_v you_o shall_v live_v also_o and_o in_o he_o by_o virtue_n of_o spiritual_a union_n vers_fw-la 20._o at_o that_o day_n you_o shall_v know_v that_o i_o be_o in_o my_o father_n and_o you_o in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o you_o note_v a_o word_n by_o the_o way_n at_o that_o day_n they_o shall_v know_v it_o at_o what_o day_n in_o that_o day_n when_o christ_n reveal_v himself_o in_o they_o the_o world_n shall_v see_v i_o no_o more_o but_o you_o shall_v see_v i_o it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o sight_n as_o the_o apostle_n have_v of_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v with_o they_o in_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o sight_n as_o the_o world_n have_v or_o at_o this_o day_n have_v of_o christ_n for_o the_o world_n believe_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o sinner_n yet_o they_o see_v he_o not_o now_o saint_n see_v he_o first_o die_v for_o they_o 2._o they_o see_v he_o live_v in_o they_o and_o this_o assurance_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o they_o receive_v by_o faith_n believe_v and_o know_v this_o to_o be_v a_o truth_n for_o faith_n and_o knowledge_n in_o this_o particular_a be_v but_o one_o thing_n we_o believe_v and_o know_v say_v peter_n that_o thou_o be_v the_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o thus_o saint_n in_o who_o this_o law_n of_o righteousness_n be_v manifest_a can_v in_o a_o measure_n say_v we_o believe_v and_o know_v that_o god_n have_v reveal_v his_o son_n not_o only_o to_o we_o but_o in_o we_o and_o thus_o christ_n dwell_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o there_o be_v no_o one_o truth_n of_o god_n more_o clear_o reveal_v in_o scripture_n more_o glorious_a in_o the_o spirit_n of_o saint_n than_o this_o truth_n of_o christ_n form_v in_o they_o 2._o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o this_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v a_o external_a righteousness_n among_o man_n for_o this_o law_n in_o the_o spirit_n teach_v man_n to_o
