and_o not_o till_o then_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o that_o person_n be_v actual_o justify_v either_o he_o be_v ceremonial_o justify_v as_o a_o person_n fit_a to_o

thereby_o have_v a_o eternal_a pardon_n from_o their_o moral_a sin_n and_o so_o a_o eternal_a justification_n in_o god_n sight_n or_o thus_o god_n reconciliation_n procure_v by_o a_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n be_v not_o like_o the_o reconciliation_n of_o a_o judge_n that_o do_v but_o bare_o acquit_v a_o malefactor_n and_o so_o leave_v he_o but_o it_o be_v like_o the_o reconciliation_n of_o a_o merciful_a father_n that_o do_v not_o only_o forgive_v his_o child_n but_o together_o with_o that_o forgiveness_n do_v also_o receive_v he_o into_o favour_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n these_o two_o

antecedent_n or_o mean_n of_o atonement_n but_o a_o concurrent_a part_n of_o atonement_n these_o reason_n beside_o what_o other_o may_v be_v add_v do_v sufficient_o prove_v that_o god_n gracious_a

3._o 9_o shall_v cite_v it_o to_o prove_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o our_o surety_n to_o the_o moral_a law_n see_v there_o be_v no_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n express_v in_o this_o

21._o and_o therefore_o this_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o phil._n 3._o 9_o must_v have_v the_o same_o sense_n as_o i_o have_v expound_v it_o to_o have_v in_o 2_o cor._n 5._o 21._o and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o hitherto_o mr._n nortons_n proof_n of_o heresy_n have_v fail_v his_o expectation_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a they_o do_v make_v direct_o against_o he_o but_o say_v mr._n norton_n in_o p._n 211._o to_o say_v that_o pardon_n of_o sin_n be_v righteousness_n itself_o be_v to_o confound_v the_o effect_n with_o the_o cause_n reply_v 3_o if_o a_o mere_a natural_a philosopher_n have_v say_v so_o it_o have_v be_v the_o less_o wonder_n but_o that_o a_o learned_a divine_a shall_v say_v so_o especial_o after_o so_o much_o light_n both_o from_o german_a and_o english_a divine_n that_o have_v take_v pain_n to_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o god_n gracious_a pardon_n be_v a_o sinner_n righteousness_n be_v to_o my_o apprehension_n somewhat_o strange_a this_o righteousness_n of_o god_n say_v p._n martyr_n as_o i_o have_v note_v he_o a_o little_a before_o be_v far_o distant_a from_o the_o righteousness_n that_o be_v know_v by_o nature_n for_o neither_o reason_n nor_o philosophy_n

the_o moral_a law_n as_o the_o principle_n of_o natural_a reason_n be_v apt_a to_o judge_v for_o the_o principle_n of_o natural_a reason_n can_v think_v of_o a_o righteousness_n for_o sinner_n by_o

hence_o it_o follow_v that_o see_v the_o cup_n of_o christ_n be_v fill_v with_o the_o vindicative_a wrath_n of_o god_n as_o mr._n norton_n affirm_v than_o james_n and_o john_n must_v drink_v of_o the_o same_o cup_n for_o say_v christ_n to_o they_o you_o shall_v drink_v of_o the_o same_o cup_n that_o i_o shall_v drink_v of_o but_o i_o think_v mr._n norton_n himself_o will_v say_v that_o they_o

that_o cup._n reply_v 12._o i_o grant_v that_o christ_n suffer_v as_o a_o satisfier_n but_o the_o only_a reason_n why_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o death_n of_o satisfaction_n be_v from_o the_o mutual_a covenant_n that_o be_v make_v between_o the_o trinity_n it_o be_v their_o agreement_n that_o make_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o full_a satisfaction_n or_o to_o be_v the_o full_a price_n of_o trinity_n the_o only_a reason_n why_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o death_n of_o satisfaction_n distinct_a from_o martyrdom_n be_v the_o covenant_n between_o the_o trinity_n our_o redemption_n as_o i_o have_v show_v also_o in_o chap._n 9_o but_o because_o god_n make_v no_o such_o covenant_n with_o the_o son_n of_o zebedee_n therefore_o though_o they_o drink_v the_o cup_n of_o a_o violent_a death_n as_o christ_n do_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o for_o satisfaction_n it_o be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o cup_n of_o martyrdom_n in_o they_o but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o because_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o death_n of_o covenant_n it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o death_n of_o martyrdom_n but_o it_o be_v a_o death_n of_o satisfaction_n also_o second_o i_o
