sin_n and_o then_o to_o convince_v of_o righteousness_n whereby_o we_o stand_v righteous_a before_o god_n and_o this_o righteousness_n here_o be_v not_o our_o own_o inherent_a but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n a_o mediator_n god_n and_o man_n the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v of_o righteousness_n in_o this_o order_n of_o a_o fourfold_a gradation_n righteousness_n first_o that_o

to_o be_v have_v in_o christ_n the_o mediator_n four_o that_o this_o righteousness_n be_v our_o righteousness_n first_o gradation_n there_o must_v be_v a_o righteousness_n for_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o a_o god_n who_o be_v righteousness_n itself_o and_o no_o unclean_a thing_n shall_v come_v into_o heaven_n unless_o we_o have_v a_o righteousness_n how_o shall_v we_o look_v god_n in_o the_o face_n or_o how_o can_v we_o escape_v hell_n gradation_n now_o for_o the_o second_o that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o any_o creature_n man_n or_o angel_n we_o have_v not_o a_o righteousness_n of_o our_o own_o for_o there_o be_v divers_a thing_n to_o be_v satisfy_v god_n himself_o and_o the_o law_n and_o our_o own_o conscience_n and_o the_o world_n perhaps_o we_o may_v have_v a_o righteousness_n to_o satisfy_v the_o world_n because_o we_o live_v civil_o o_o but_o that_o will_v not_o satisfy_v conscience_n and_o then_o there_o must_v be_v a_o satisfaction_n to_o the_o law_n which_o be_v a_o large_a thing_n that_o condemn_v our_o thought_n desire_n but_o god_n be_v the_o most_o perfect_a of_o all_o put_v case_n we_o have_v a_o righteousness_n of_o a_o good_a carriage_n among_o man_n this_o will_v not_o satisfy_v god_n and_o the_o law_n it_o will_v not_o satisfy_v conscience_n man_n they_o be_v our_o fellow-prisoner_n conscience_n will_v not_o be_v content_v but_o with_o that_o which_o will_v content_v god_n when_o conscience_n see_v there_o be_v such_o a_o righteousness_n find_v out_o by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n that_o content_v he_o else_o conscience_n will_v be_v always_o in_o doubt_n and_o fear_n three_o gradation_n this_o righteousness_n be_v to_o be_v have_v in_o christ._n what_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v that_o righteousness_n that_o be_v found_v upon_o his_o obedience_n active_a fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o passive_a discharge_v all_o our_o debt_n satisfy_v god_n justice_n the_o meritoriousnesse_n of_o both_o of_o they_o be_v found_v upon_o the_o purity_n of_o his_o nature_n all_o his_o suffering_n and_o do_n have_v their_o excellency_n from_o the_o personal_a union_n of_o god_n and_o man_n in_o reference_n to_o which_o union_n we_o may_v without_o blasphemy_n aver_v that_o god_n perform_v the_o law_n god_n die_v for_o we_o gradation_n four_o and_o last_o this_o righteousness_n be_v our_o righteousness_n the_o spirit_n convince_v that_o this_o belong_v to_o all_o believer_n for_o it_o be_v better_a than_o adam_n have_v his_o righteousness_n be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o a_o

justice_n of_o god_n we_o may_v have_v access_n with_o boldness_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n and_o say_v lord_n i_o come_v in_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n that_o have_v appease_v thy_o

christ_n i_o answer_v answ._n first_o the_o holy_a ghost_n present_v to_o the_o soul_n the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o excellent_a righteousness_n and_o then_o create_v a_o hand_n of_o faith_n to_o embrace_v it_o be_v propose_v you_o that_o be_v humble_a and_o brokenhearted_a sinner_n here_o be_v christ_n for_o you_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v not_o only_o reveal_v the_o excellency_n of_o christ_n but_o that_o this_o belong_v to_o i_o that_o christ_n be_v give_v for_o i_o and_o that_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v sway_v the_o soul_n when_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o tell_v in_o general_a only_o that_o christ_n be_v a_o excellent_a saviour_n but_o shall_v relate_v to_o a_o christian_a soul_n god_n give_v christ_n for_o thou_o this_o sway_v the_o heart_n to_o rest_v upon_o christ_n whereupon_o the_o marriage_n be_v make_v up_o between_o the_o soul_n and_o christ_n the_o soul_n say_v i_o be_o christ_n and_o i_o give_v myself_o to_o christ_n and_o to_o whatsoever_o accompany_v christ_n and_o then_o as_o it_o be_v in_o marriage_n the_o person_n by_o virtue_n of_o that_o relation_n have_v interest_n into_o each_o other_o substance_n &_o estate_n so_o when_o this_o mystical_a marriage_n be_v make_v up_o between_o christ_n and_o we_o we_o have_v a_o right_n unto_o christ_n by_o all_o right_n by_o title_n of_o purchase_n and_o redemption_n he_o have_v purchase_v heaven_n for_o we_o and_o we_o for_o heaven_n all_o that_o christ_n have_v be_v we_o all_o his_o good_a be_v we_o our_o sin_n his_o and_o his_o righteousness_n we_o so_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v i_o of_o christ_n righteousness_n and_o give_v i_o faith_n to_o embrace_v it_o than_o christ_n be_v i_o with_o all_o he_o have_v by_o this_o i_o have_v speak_v you_o may_v see_v how_o the_o spirit_n convince_v do_v but_o imagine_v what_o a_o bless_a condition_n the_o soul_n be_v in_o when_o this_o match_n be_v make_v but_o you_o will_v ask_v i_o why_o be_v the_o send_n of_o the_o spirit_n necessary_a for_o the_o convince_a of_o this_o righteousness_n i_o answer_v for_o divers_a reason_n first_o 1_o because_o it_o be_v above_o the_o conceit_n of_o man_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o righteousness_n of_o god-man_n therefore_o it_o be_v discover_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o when_o it_o be_v discover_v the_o spirit_n must_v open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o see_v else_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o natural_a knowledge_n of_o supernatural_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n by_o a_o natural_a knowledge_n may_v understand_v they_o so_o as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o discourse_v of_o they_o therefore_o to_o change_v the_o soul_n there_o must_v be_v a_o supernatural_a sight_n to_o see_v supernatural_a thing_n a_o devil_n incarnate_a may_v know_v all_o thing_n and_o yet_o want_v to_o see_v only_o the_o holy_a ghost_n give_v inward_a fight_n inward_a eye_n and_o work_v faith_n to_o see_v christ_n as_o i_o again_o the_o send_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v necessary_a for_o this_o conviction_n 2._o because_o he_o alone_o must_v set_v down_o the_o soul_n and_o make_v the_o conscience_n quiet_a who_o be_v great_a than_o the_o conscience_n conscience_n will_v clamour_v thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v in_o christ_n thou_o be_v righteous_a the_o holy_a ghost_n only_o know_v what_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o every_o man_n he_o only_o know_v the_o intent_n of_o the_o father_n to_o every_o christian_a and_o can_v answer_v all_o inward_a objection_n and_o cavil_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n raise_v up_o against_o the_o soul_n therefore_o the_o convince_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v necessary_a howsoever_o christ_n have_v purchase_v our_o peace_n yet_o the_o holy_a ghost_n must_v apply_v it_o for_o the_o conscience_n be_v so_o full_a of_o clamour_n that_o unless_o the_o holy_a ghost_n apply_v what_o christ_n have_v do_v conscience_n will_v not_o be_v satisfy_v god_n the_o father_n have_v appoint_v christ_n and_o christ_n have_v wrought_v it_o but_o the_o three_o person_n must_v apply_v it_o to_o the_o soul_n to_o assure_v we_o that_o this_o belong_v to_o we_o the_o application_n of_o all_o good_a thing_n to_o the_o soul_n that_o christ_n the_o son_n have_v wrought_v be_v the_o proper_a office_n of_o the_o three_o person_n in_o civil_a contract_n here_o there_o must_v not_o only_o be_v a_o purchase_n but_o a_o seal_n though_o christ_n have_v wrought_v righteousness_n for_o we_o the_o spirit_n must_v seal_v it_o to_o every_o soul_n this_o righteousness_n belong_v to_o you_o christ_n be_v you_o with_o all_o that_o be_v he_o 3_o again_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v full_a of_o pride_n and_o will_v fain_o have_v some_o righteousness_n of_o their_o own_o the_o jew_n be_v of_o this_o temper_n and_o it_o have_v be_v the_o great_a question_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n till_o this_o day_n what_o be_v that_o righteousness_n whereby_o we_o must_v stand_v before_o god_n but_o god_n spirit_n answer_v all_o objection_n belove_a the_o best_a of_o we_o though_o

than_o what_o be_v poverty_n and_o what_o be_v imprisonment_n not_o worthy_a to_o be_v reckon_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v reveal_v again_o where_o the_o holy_a ghost_n convince_v enough_o there_o be_v inward_a peace_n and_o great_a joy_n suitable_a to_o the_o righteousness_n as_o the_o righteousness_n be_v a_o excellent_a righteousness_n of_o god-man_n so_o that_o peace_n and_o joy_n that_o come_v from_o it_o be_v unspeakable_a peace_n and_o joy_n so_o that_o then_o the_o heart_n see_v itself_o instate_v in'peace_n and_o joy_n as_o you_o have_v it_o rom._n 5._o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n we_o have_v peace_n towards_o god_n not_o only_o inward_a peace_n and_o joy_n but_o a_o peace_n that_o will_v show_v itself_o abroad_o a_o glorious_a peace_n a_o peace_n that_o will_v make_v we_o glory_n verse_n 3_o we_o glory_v in_o tribulation_n a_o hard_a matter_n to_o glory_n in_o abasement_n not_o only_o so_o but_o we_o glory_n in_o god_n god_n be_v we_o and_o christ_n righteousness_n we_o when_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v god_n wrath_n than_o we_o may_v make_v our_o boast_n of_o god_n again_o where_o this_o conviction_n of_o righteousness_n be_v it_o answer_v all_o objection_n the_o doubt_a heart_n will_v object_v this_o and_o that_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n show_v a_o all-sufficiency_n in_o christ_n obedience_n and_o that_o set_v the_o soul_n down_o quiet_o in_o all_o cross_n and_o calm_v it_o in_o all_o storm_n in_o some_o degree_n where_o the_o soul_n be_v convince_v of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n there_o the_o conscience_n demand_v bold_o it_o be_v god_n that_o justify_v who_o shall_v condemn_v it_o be_v christ_n that_o be_v dead_a and_o rise_v again_o and_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n who_o shall_v lay_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o charge_n of_o god_n choose_v so_o that_o a_o convince_a conscience_n dare_v all_o creature_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n it_o work_v strong_o and_o bold_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o enlarge_v this_o you_o know_v whether_o you_o be_v convince_v to_o end_v the_o point_n i_o beseech_v you_o labour_n to_o live_v by_o this_o faith_n use_v here_o be_v a_o evidence_n if_o we_o can_v live_v by_o it_o how_o be_v that_o every_o day_n to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o every_o day_n we_o run_v into_o sin_n be_v sure_o we_o have_v our_o conscience_n sprinkle_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o as_o we_o increase_v new_a guilt_n so_o we_o may_v have_v a_o new_a pardon_n therefore_o every_o day_n labour_n to_o see_v god_n as_o reconcile_v and_o christ_n as_o our_o advocate_n with_o the_o father_n christ_n be_v now_o in_o heaven_n if_o we_o sin_n make_v use_n of_o he_o this_o shall_v be_v the_o life_n of_o a_o christian_a to_o make_v use_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n when_o you_o find_v nature_n pollute_v go_v to_o god_n and_o say_v lord_n my_o nature_n though_o foul_a in_o itself_o yet_o be_v holy_a and_o pure_a in_o christ_n he_o take_v the_o weakness_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v communicate_v the_o worth_n and_o efficacy_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n unto_o i_o and_o for_o my_o action_n i_o be_o a_o sinner_n but_o christ_n have_v full_o discharge_v all_o my_o debt_n and_o be_v now_o in_o heaven_n he_o have_v perform_v all_o righteousness_n for_o i_o look_v not_o upon_o i_o as_o in_o myself_o but_o look_v upon_o i_o in_o christ_n he_o and_o i_o be_o one_o this_o shall_v be_v every_o day_n exercise_n to_o see_v ourselves_o in_o christ_n and_o so_o see_v he_o and_o ourselves_o one_o i_o shall_v enlarge_v the_o point_n further_o but_o i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o reason_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o comforter_n may_v and_o shall_v convince_v of_o righteousness_n because_o i_o go_v to_o the_o father_n what_o strength_n be_v there_o in_o that_o reason_n why_o this_o christ_n take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v our_o surety_n and_o he_o must_v acquit_v we_o of_o all_o our_o sin_n ere_o he_o can_v go_v to_o his_o father_n if_o one_o sin_n have_v be_v unsatisfied_a for_o he_o can_v not_o have_v go_v to_o his_o father_n but_o now_o he_o be_v go_v to_o his_o father_n therefore_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v satisfy_v for_o so_o that_o now_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o sufficient_a pledge_n to_o i_o that_o my_o person_n be_v accept_v and_o my_o sin_n pardon_v because_o he_o be_v go_v to_o his_o father_n to_o appear_v before_o the_o father_n for_o we_o which_o he_o can_v not_o have_v do_v have_v he_o not_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n but_o wherefore_o do_v he_o go_v to_o the_o father_n why_o to_o make_v application_n of_o what_o he_o have_v wrought_v if_o christ_n shall_v not_o have_v go_v to_o the_o father_n he_o can_v not_o have_v send_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o we_o therefore_o there_o be_v great_a use_n of_o this_o go_n to_o his_o father_n satan_n plead_v before_o god_n we_o be_v such_o and_o such_o i_o but_o say_v christ_n i_o have_v shed_v my_o blood_n for_o they_o and_o there_o he_o perfume_v all_o our_o weak_a prayer_n if_o we_o be_v not_o imperfect_a what_o need_n we_o a_o mediator_n in_o heaven_n therefore_o he_o be_v go_v to_o heaven_n to_o disannul_v all_o satan_n accusation_n and_o to_o provide_v a_o place_n for_o we_o die_v when_o we_o will_v our_o place_n be_v ready_a then_o again_o he_o be_v go_v to_o the_o father_n to_o clothe_v we_o with_o a_o sweet_a relation_n to_o make_v the_o father_n our_o father_n for_o he_o say_v john_n 12.17_o i_o go_v to_o my_o father_n and_o to_o your_o father_n so_o that_o he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o call_v we_o brethren_n by_o virtue_n of_o this_o we_o may_v go_v to_o god_n and_o call_v he_o father_n &_o when_o we_o die_v we_o may_v without_o presumption_n say_v father_n into_o thy_o hand_n i_o commend_v my_o spirit_n for_o the_o father_n love_v we_o as_o he_o love_v christ_n with_o one_o and_o the_o same_o love_n though_o in_o a_o far_o different_a degree_n what_o a_o comfort_n be_v this_o that_o when_o we_o die_v we_o go_v to_o our_o father_n that_o be_v better_a than_o any_o earthly_a father_n therefore_o it_o shall_v joy_v we_o when_o the_o time_n of_o our_o departure_n come_v we_o see_v old_a jacob_n when_o he_o see_v the_o chariot_n come_v out_o of_o egypt_n how_o his_o heart_n leap_v because_o he_o shall_v go_v to_o see_v his_o son_n joseph_n so_o when_o death_n be_v send_v to_o transport_v we_o to_o christ_n to_o heaven_n have_v we_o a_o strong_a faith_n we_o shall_v be_v exceed_o glad_a and_o let_v we_o

by_o death_n think_v they_o be_v go_v to_o their_o father_n if_o you_o love_v i_o say_v christ_n you_o will_v rejoice_v because_o i_o say_v i_o go_v to_o the_o father_n if_o we_o love_v our_o friend_n
