in_o who_o be_v the_o fullness_n of_o truth_n and_o grace_n look_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o natural_a body_n so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o mystical_a body_n as_o in_o the_o natural_a body_n all_o the_o natural_a motion_n proceed_v from_o the_o head_n and_o from_o the_o virtue_n that_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o head_n to_o the_o member_n so_o in_o the_o mystical_a body_n all_o the_o spiritual_a

christ_n by_o which_o the_o death_n to_o sin_n and_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n be_v wrought_v in_o we_o likewise_o look_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o oil_n of_o aaron_n the_o oil_n that_o be_v pour_v on_o the_o head_n of_o aaron_n it_o stay_v not_o on_o his_o head_n but_o descend_v to_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o clothing_n so_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n it_o rest_v not_o on_o christ_n only_o but_o from_o christ_n as_o the_o head_n it_o descend_v upon_o all_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n the_o reason_n thereof_o why_o as_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n so_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n proceed_v from_o christ_n be_v because_o both_o be_v the_o work_n of_o grace_n according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o evangelist_n in_o he_o dwell_v all_o the_o fullness_n of_o grace_n and_o in_o collos_n 2._o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o he_o dwell_v the_o fullness_n of_o the_o godhead_n bodily_a for_o the_o better_a and_o full_a open_n of_o the_o point_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o propose_v and_o resolve_v one_o question_n and_o that_o be_v this_o quest_n if_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n and_o our_o life_n of_o grace_n both_o proceed_v from_o christ_n that_o christ_n be_v the_o author_n of_o they_o

answer_v brief_o answ_n christ_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o cause_n both_o of_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n in_o a_o fourfold_a respect_n or_o he_o be_v a_o fourfold_a kind_n of_o cause_n christ_n be_v the_o 1_o meritorious_a 2_o exemplary_a 3_o moral_n 4_o efficient_a cause_n as_o of_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n so_o likewise_o of_o our_o life_n to_o grace_n first_o christ_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n for_o christ_n do_v by_o his_o death_n and_o obedience_n not_o only_o purchase_v for_o we_o a_o release_n and_o freedom_n from_o hell_n and_o consequent_o title_n to_o heaven_n but_o christ_n merit_v for_o we_o the_o donation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o be_v make_v fit_a for_o and_o capable_a of_o that_o inheritance_n christ_n not_o only_o purchase_v a_o right_a to_o heaven_n but_o grace_n &_o holiness_n whereby_o we_o may_v come_v at_o last_o to_o jus_o in_o re_fw-mi for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n only_o we_o come_v to_o have_v right_a to_o heaven_n but_o it_o be_v our_o own_o righteousness_n whereby_o we_o come_v to_o be_v make_v capable_a of_o that_o right_n to_o heaven_n for_o say_v the_o apostle_n flesh_n and_o blood_n shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o be_v nature_n uncorrected_a unsanctified_a and_o uncontrolled_a it_o shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n therefore_o christ_n have_v purchase_v not_o only_a redemption_n from_o hell_n and_o title_n to_o heaven_n but_o the_o donation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o be_v make_v fit_a and_o capable_a of_o heaven_n whereby_o we_o be_v make_v meet_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o inheritance_n with_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n 17.19_o joh._n 17.19_o so_o say_v the_o evangelist_n joh._n 17.19_o for_o their_o sake_n say_v our_o saviour_n i_o sanctify_v myself_o that_o they_o also_o may_v be_v sanctify_v through_o the_o truth_n christ_n sanctify_v himself_o not_o only_o to_o redeem_v we_o from_o hell_n and_o to_o procure_v title_n to_o heaven_n but_o he_o sanctify_v himself_o that_o his_o member_n may_v be_v sanctify_v that_o by_o the_o merit_n and_o virtue_n of_o christ_n sanctification_n we_o may_v be_v sanctify_v so_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o titus_n he_o have_v bestow_v on_o we_o the_o spirit_n through_o christ_n 3.5_o tit._n 3.5_o tit._n 3.5_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n that_o we_o have_v do_v but_o according_a to_o his_o mercy_n he_o save_v we_o by_o the_o wash_n of_o regeneration_n and_o the_o renew_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o he_o shed_v on_o we_o abundant_o through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o saviour_n it_o be_v through_o christ_n only_o as_o through_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n by_o who_o we_o obtain_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n by_o which_o spirit_n our_o sinful_a lust_n be_v mortify_v in_o we_o and_o by_o which_o we_o be_v quicken_v and_o revive_v to_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n so_o christ_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n he_o deserve_v the_o donation_n of_o the_o spirit_n from_o his_o father_n second_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v the_o meritorious_a so_o he_o be_v the_o exemplary_a cause_n as_o of_o death_n to_o sin_n so_o of_o our_o life_n to_o grace_n christ_n in_o die_v to_o sin_n he_o set_v himself_o as_o a_o pattern_n to_o we_o to_o teach_v we_o also_o that_o we_o shall_v die_v to_o sin_n christ_n in_o rise_v from_o the_o grave_n he_o set_v himself_o a_o pattern_n to_o we_o to_o teach_v we_o to_o rise_v from_o sin_n so_o he_o be_v the_o exemplary_a cause_n for_o christ_n be_v a_o pattern_n for_o our_o imitation_n in_o his_o moral_a action_n and_o we_o must_v resemble_v after_o a_o sort_n some_o of_o his_o mediatorious_a action_n also_o not_o only_o in_o the_o good_a duty_n that_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n but_o in_o those_o that_o he_o perform_v for_o our_o redemption_n it_o be_v true_a in_o a_o different_a manner_n christ_n be_v a_o pattern_n to_o we_o in_o action_n moral_a that_o be_v in_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o he_o perform_v that_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n he_o be_v our_o pattern_n to_o be_v imitate_v in_o the_o same_o kind_n as_o christ_n be_v gracious_a to_o the_o poor_a so_o shall_v we_o to_o they_o that_o be_v poor_a and_o in_o distress_n in_o the_o same_o kind_n as_o he_o be_v temperate_a so_o may_v we_o imitate_v he_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o degree_n but_o for_o his_o action_n mediatorious_a we_o be_v to_o resemble_v some_o of_o they_o too_o though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n yet_o in_o some_o way_n of_o use_n as_o he_o die_v for_o sin_n so_o we_o shall_v die_v to_o sin_n as_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o grave_n so_o we_o shall_v rise_v from_o sin_n to_o newness_n of_o life_n so_o still_o christ_n be_v our_o pattern_n as_o saint_n austin_n say_v christ_n come_v not_o only_o to_o help_v we_o and_o to_o perform_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v but_o he_o come_v to_o teach_v we_o by_o his_o example_n what_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o he_o teach_v we_o he_o be_v our_o schoolmaster_n not_o only_o in_o his_o action_n moral_a but_o in_o his_o action_n mediatorious_a in_o the_o former_a we_o may_v imitate_v he_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n though_o we_o can_v in_o the_o same_o degree_n in_o the_o latter_a we_o can_v imitate_v he_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n yet_o in_o some_o sort_n we_o may_v we_o shall_v be_v as_o the_o heletropium_fw-la that_o open_v and_o shut_v with_o the_o sun_n so_o we_o may_v follow_v the_o lamb_n wheresoever_o he_o go_v as_o he_o die_v for_o sin_n so_o we_o must_v die_v to_o sin_n as_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o grave_n so_o we_o must_v rise_v from_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n to_o newness_n of_o life_n so_o christ_n be_v the_o exemplary_a cause_n of_o our_o death_n to_o sin_n and_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n three_o christ_n be_v the_o moral_a move_a persuade_v cause_n of_o both_o that_o the_o apostle_n will_v timothy_n to_o remember_v 2_o tim._n 2.8_o remember_v say_v he_o that_o jesus_n christ_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a according_a to_o my_o gospel_n he_o bid_v he_o remember_v it_o why_o remember_v it_o because_o the_o very_a thought_n and_o remembrance_n that_o christ_n die_v and_o rise_v again_o it_o can_v choose_v but_o be_v a_o powerful_a motive_n to_o holiness_n for_o it_o make_v man_n conclude_v &_o argue_v with_o themselves_o what_o do_v christ_n lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o lay_v down_o our_o lust_n for_o he_o do_v christ_n arise_v again_o the_o three_o day_n

our_o heart_n fail_v we_o as_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o israelite_n in_o the_o report_n of_o the_o ten_o spy_n like_o the_o foolish_a builder_n in_o luke_n 4._o 4._o luke_n 4._o that_o be_v not_o

live_v with_o christ_n must_v be_v sure_a to_o begin_v at_o the_o right_a end_n to_o die_v with_o christ_n first_o he_o that_o will_v perform_v holy_a duty_n &_o gracious_a action_n that_o man_n must_v labour_v to_o crucify_v and_o mortify_v sinful_a affection_n sinful_a affection_n be_v like_o weed_n the_o husbandman_n that_o desire_v his_o corn_n shall_v thrive_v and_o live_v he_o labour_v first_o to_o kill_v the_o weed_n i_o say_v sinful_a affection_n in_o the_o soul_n be_v like_o weed_n in_o the_o ground_n or_o soil_n if_o we_o desire_v that_o grace_n shall_v thrive_v and_o to_o perform_v gracious_a duty_n with_o content_a to_o ourselves_o and_o to_o god_n we_o must_v labour_v to_o kill_v our_o lust_n when_o we_o find_v in_o ourselves_o a_o unaptnesse_n and_o a_o indisposition_n to_o the_o performance_n of_o gracious_a duty_n suppose_v it_o be_v to_o prayer_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o god_n to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n let_v we_o then_o reflect_v on_o ourselves_o and_o see_v what_o sinful_a lust_n there_o have_v get_v strength_n and_o labour_n to_o abate_v the_o power_n of_o that_o and_o then_o certain_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o christ_n we_o shall_v be_v enable_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o second_o place_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o which_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n i_o propose_v in_o the_o beginning_n the_o connexion_n and_o conjunction_n of_o these_o two_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o where_o first_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o remember_v you_o of_o what_o i_o former_o deliver_v in_o the_o unfolding_n of_o these_o word_n that_o the_o life_n that_o the_o apostle_n here_o mean_v when_o he_o say_v if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o it_o be_v the_o same_o that_o in_o verse_n 4._o he_o call_v newness_n of_o life_n therefore_o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o by_o baptism_n into_o death_n that_o as_o christ_n be_v raise_v by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n so_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n i_o say_v the_o apostle_n mean_v here_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n which_o in_o verse_n 4._o he_o call_v newness_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 11._o he_o call_v it_o live_v to_o god_n likewise_o reckon_v you_o yourselves_o dead_a to_o sin_n but_o alive_a to_o god_n though_o secondary_o and_o by_o consequent_a i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o apostle_n mean_v live_v with_o god_n in_o life_n eternal_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v as_o i_o show_v before_o that_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o life_n of_o glory_n it_o be_v not_o in_o nature_n but_o in_o degree_n grace_n be_v glory_n begin_v and_o glory_n be_v nothing_o but_o grace_v perfect_v as_o the_o child_n in_o the_o womb_n have_v the_o same_o life_n that_o it_o enjoy_v in_o the_o world_n only_o than_o it_o be_v in_o a_o further_a degree_n so_o the_o life_n that_o a_o christian_n enjoy_v in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v the_o same_o life_n in_o nature_n though_o it_o differ_v in_o degree_n from_o that_o he_o enjoy_v in_o heaven_n the_o apostle_n use_v the_o future_a tense_n if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o for_o these_o three_o reason_n first_o to_o show_v the_o order_n and_o method_n between_o this_o life_n and_o the_o former_a death_n because_o this_o life_n in_o nature_n though_o not_o in_o time_n be_v after_o our_o death_n with_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v in_o nature_n the_o introduce_v of_o habit_n in_o nature_n be_v after_o the_o expelling_a of_o privation_n as_o the_o enlighten_v of_o the_o air_n in_o nature_n be_v after_o the_o dispel_v of_o darkness_n second_o the_o apostle_n use_v the_o future_a tense_n because_o though_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n be_v here_o begin_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o consummate_v till_o afterward_o in_o which_o respect_n the_o apostle_n say_v we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o he_o make_v this_o life_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o compliment_n and_o consummation_n a_o act_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o in_o the_o creed_n i_o believe_v the_o life_n everlasting_a three_o because_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n do_v not_o fade_v as_o the_o natural_a life_n perrish_v but_o it_o be_v a_o endure_a life_n as_o christ_n be_v once_o raise_v he_o die_v no_o more_o verse_n 9_o so_o every_o member_n of_o christ_n he_o that_o be_v once_o quicken_v and_o raise_v with_o christ_n from_o sin_n he_o die_v no_o more_o so_o say_v christ_n joh._n 5.24_o he_o that_o believe_v have_v eternal_a life_n what_o have_v every_o one_o that_o believe_v life_n eternal_a yes_o every_o one_o that_o believe_v have_v life_n eternal_a in_o hope_n and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o grace_n because_o he_o have_v that_o life_n for_o the_o present_a that_o do_v not_o fade_v and_o perish_v but_o endure_v to_o eternity_n very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o he_o that_o hear_v my_o word_n and_o believe_v in_o he_o that_o send_v i_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o

there_o be_v our_o death_n with_o christ_n we_o shall_v be_v also_o in_o his_o resurrection_n there_o be_v the_o conjunction_n and_o connexion_n of_o our_o life_n with_o christ_n where_o the_o

of_o his_o death_n shall_v also_o into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n why_o because_o they_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n as_o a_o plant_n that_o be_v graft_v into_o a_o stock_n it_o

new_a life_n of_o grace_n the_o ground_n of_o it_o be_v this_o first_o to_o whosoever_o christ_n communicate_v himself_o he_o communicate_v himself_o whole_o to_o whosoever_o he_o impart_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n for_o the_o kill_n of_o sin_n to_o he_o he_o impart_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n to_o revive_v and_o quicken_v he_o to_o a_o new_a life_n of_o grace_n if_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o christ_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n we_o shall_v be_v also_o into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n because_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o he_o

life_n of_o grace_n as_o of_o his_o crucify_a virtue_n to_o kill_v sin_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v from_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o the_o one_o without_o the_o other_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o believe_v that_o we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o why_o because_o death_n with_o christ_n be_v insufficient_a unless_o we_o live_v with_o christ_n philosophy_n say_v that_o nature_n do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a much_o less_o do_v christ_n the_o god_n of_o nature_n now_o as_o in_o christ_n it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o he_o to_o die_v for_o we_o unless_o he_o have_v rise_v again_o so_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a and_o ineffectual_a for_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n to_o die_v to_o sin_n if_o they_o be_v not_o quicken_v to_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o that_o death_n to_o sin_n indeed_o deface_v the_o image_n of_o sin_n but_o it_o do_v not_o renew_v in_o we_o the_o image_n of_o god_n now_o it_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n that_o make_v we_o fit_a and_o capable_a of_o eternal_a life_n it_o be_v true_a the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n give_v we_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n but_o our_o own_o inherent_a righteousness_n qualify_v we_o and_o dispose_v and_o make_v we_o fit_a and_o capable_a of_o it_o for_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v god_n flesh_n and_o blood_n shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n by_o mortify_v of_o sin_n we_o cease_v to_o be_v sinner_n by_o mortify_v of_o sin_n we_o have_v the_o image_n of_o satan_n deface_v but_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v not_o renew_v in_o we_o therefore_o beside_o our_o death_n with_o christ_n there_o be_v require_v our_o life_n with_o christ_n that_o so_o beside_o the_o deface_a of_o satan_n image_n we_o may_v have_v the_o image_n of_o

the_o three_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o opposition_n between_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n philosophy_n tell_v we_o that_o in_o those_o opposite_n that_o be_v

of_o the_o air_n it_o bring_v light_a now_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n and_o grace_n be_v thus_o opposite_a that_o that_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o sin_n then_o it_o must_v of_o necessity_n bring_v with_o it_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n if_o christ_n mortify_v sin_n in_o we_o and_o take_v away_o the_o life_n and_o vigour_n of_o sin_n christ_n of_o necessity_n must_v bring_v into_o the_o same_o

bring_v in_o health_n this_o shall_v suffice_v for_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o point_n i_o come_v to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o use_v if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n we_o shall_v also_o live_v with_o he_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n to_o sin_n as_o christ_n die_v for_o sin_n those_o shall_v live_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n if_o it_o be_v so_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o
