A45162	Ultimas manus being letters between Mr. John Humphrey, and Mr. Samuel Clark, in reference to the point of justification : written upon the occasion of Mr. Clark's printing his book upon that subject, after Mr. Humfrey's book entituled The righteousness of God, and published for vindication of that doctrine wherein they agree, as found, by shewing the difference of it from that of the Papist, and the mistakes of our common Protestant : in order to an impartial and more full understanding of that great article, by the improvement of that whereto they have attained, or correction of any thing wherein they err, by better judgments : together with animadversions on some late papers between Presbyterian and Independent, in order to reconcile the difference, and fix the Doctrine of Christ's satisfaction.	Humfrey, John, 1621-1719.	1698 (1698)	Wing H3715; ESTC R16520	84,030	95

i_o think_v such_o may_v with_o anth._n burgess_n be_v well_o at_o a_o stand_n about_o it_o you_o say_v christ_n be_v a_o divine_a not_o human_a person_n be_v under_o no_o obligation_n of_o duty_n how_o then_o do_v christ_n say_v his_o father_n be_v great_a than_o he_o and_o that_o in_o regard_n to_o his_o authority_n how_o come_v he_o down_o to_o do_v his_o father_n commandment_n and_o yet_o be_v under_o no_o obligation_n here_o you_o must_v come_v off_o and_o say_v he_o be_v not_o bind_v on_o his_o own_o account_n but_o for_o we_o he_o be_v well_o then_o for_o we_o he_o be_v bind_v to_o obey_v and_o how_o then_o do_v you_o say_v he_o only_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o not_o obey_v for_o we_o you_o must_v come_v off_o again_o and_o say_v for_o we_o may_v be_v take_v for_o our_o benefit_n or_o in_o our_o stead_n he_o be_v indeed_o bind_v to_o obey_v for_o our_o benefit_n but_o not_o in_o our_o stead_n well!_o but_o what_o if_o you_o be_v out_o here_o at_o last_o let_v i_o mind_n you_o that_o christ_n who_o redeem_v we_o from_o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o law_n redeem_v we_o also_o from_o the_o obligation_n of_o perfect_a fulfil_n it_o as_o the_o condition_n of_o life_n and_o as_o by_o his_o suffering_n he_o free_v we_o not_o from_o all_o suffering_n but_o eternal_a so_o by_o his_o obedience_n though_o he_o free_v we_o not_o from_o obey_v god_n according_a to_o the_o gospel_n yet_o he_o do_v from_o obey_v he_o according_a to_o the_o law_n as_o the_o condition_n of_o salvation_n in_o this_o sense_n and_o to_o this_o purpose_n he_o obey_v that_o we_o may_v not_o so_o obey_v as_o well_o as_o he_o suffer_v that_o we_o may_v not_o so_o suffer_v that_o be_v upon_o this_o account_n not_o all_o account_n obey_v and_o suffer_v both_o in_o our_o stead_n before_o i_o leave_v you_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o reader_n when_o this_o be_v print_v i_o must_v wish_v you_o again_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o when_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n have_v obey_v for_o we_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o in_o our_o stead_n you_o do_v not_o misconstrue_v i_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n in_o one_o stead_n be_v to_o do_v it_o so_o as_o to_o free_v the_o other_o from_o do_v it_o though_o christ_n perfect_a obey_v the_o law_n do_v i_o apprehend_v free_v we_o from_o those_o term_n yet_o do_v he_o not_o obey_v the_o law_n for_o we_o so_o as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o that_o no_o other_o obedience_n be_v necessary_a to_o our_o justification_n or_o that_o his_o obey_v do_v thereby_o become_v we_o or_o be_v in_o see_v impute_v to_o we_o as_o formal_o to_o justify_v we_o this_o be_v that_o doctrine_n you_o dispute_v against_o in_o your_o dissertation_n and_o i_o find_v in_o some_o note_n which_o i_o write_v for_o a_o memor_n andum_fw-la to_o myself_o upon_o
