life_n he_o lay_v it_o down_o in_o our_o stead_n so_o also_o that_o when_o he_o take_v it_o up_o again_o he_o take_v up_o with_o it_o the_o life_n of_o all_o those_o who_o by_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n shall_v have_v a_o interest_n in_o such_o his_o death_n and_o therefore_o as_o our_o christianity_n do_v acquaint_v we_o that_o they_o who_o live_v to_o christ_n do_v live_v by_o the_o spirit_n so_o st._n paul_n to_o our_o present_a purpose_n do_v tell_v we_o in_o the_o eight_o to_o the_o roman_n ver_fw-la 11._o that_n if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a do_v dwell_v in_o you_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a shall_v also_o quicken_v your_o mortal_a body_n by_o his_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o you_o in_o a_o word_n christ_n be_v our_o head_n and_o we_o be_v his_o member_n and_o because_o he_o and_o we_o do_v make_v up_o one_o body_n and_o because_o as_o member_n of_o such_o his_o body_n we_o be_v quicken_v by_o his_o spirit_n therefore_o we_o may_v confirm_v our_o own_o resurrection_n by_o he_o and_o therefore_o as_o he_o be_v call_v the_o first-born_a from_o the_o dead_a in_o the_o first_o to_o the_o colossian_n ver_fw-la 18._o so_o we_o be_v call_v the_o child_n of_o the_o resurrection_n in_o the_o twenty_o of_o st._n luke_n ver_fw-la 36._o so_o that_o a_o good_a man_n from_o the_o certainty_n of_o his_o saviour_n resurrection_n from_o death_n to_o glory_n and_o immortality_n may_v safe_o conclude_v his_o own_o may_v lie_v down_o in_o his_o grave_n as_o secure_o as_o in_o his_o bed_n and_o when_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o great_a day_n shall_v down_o forth_o may_v be_v more_o secure_a of_o rise_v again_o and_o put_v on_o his_o body_n than_o he_o can_v be_v that_o he_o shall_v rise_v on_o the_o morrow-morning_n and_o put_v on_o his_o clothes_n for_o for_o the_o first_o he_o have_v the_o security_n of_o truth_n and_o omnipotence_n but_o for_o the_o last_o he_o have_v only_o the_o promise_n of_o his_o own_o presumption_n or_o at_o the_o very_o best_a but_o of_o his_o hope_n 4._o as_o the_o faithful_a shall_v in_o consideration_n of_o our_o saviour_n death_n and_o resurrection_n obtain_v their_o own_o resurrection_n from_o death_n to_o life_n so_o the_o life_n which_o by_o such_o their_o resurrection_n they_o shall_v obtain_v shall_v be_v life_n eternal_a this_o be_v express_a scripture_n and_o a_o christian_a may_v therefore_o be_v satisfy_v in_o and_o assure_v of_o its_o truth_n for_o our_o saviour_n himself_o tell_v we_o as_o much_o when_o give_v a_o account_n of_o the_o last_o judgement_n he_o close_v such_o account_n in_o the_o last_o verse_n of_o the_o twenty_o five_o chapter_n of_o st._n matthew_n with_o these_o word_n and_o these_o shall_v go_v into_o everlasting_a punishment_n and_o then_o follow_v that_o which_o be_v direct_o to_o our_o present_a purpose_n but_o the_o righteous_a into_o life_n eternal_a and_o reason_n tell_v we_o that_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v because_o where_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o death_n whatsoever_o be_v take_v away_o there_o the_o possibility_n of_o death_n must_v be_v take_v away_o too_o unless_o we_o shall_v imagine_v that_o death_n shall_v be_v bring_v upon_o a_o rational_a creature_n subject_n to_o law_n without_o any_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o death_n at_o all_o but_o as_o we_o have_v often_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o prove_v it_o already_o that_o can_v be_v suppose_v in_o the_o present_a case_n because_o the_o death_n we_o now_o speak_v of_o be_v suppose_v to_o come_v from_o god_n justice_n and_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n can_v either_o true_o or_o rational_o be_v suppose_v to_o inflict_v death_n there_o where_o there_o be_v no_o desert_n of_o it_o now_o we_o therefore_o know_v that_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o death_n be_v sin_n because_o we_o know_v that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n if_o therefore_o as_o we_o have_v already_o see_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o expiation_n and_o if_o upon_o their_o resurrection_n they_o obtain_v a_o indefectible_a holiness_n the_o inference_n will_v be_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o death_n sin_n will_v upon_o the_o first_o account_n be_v cancel_v and_o blot_v out_o and_o that_o upon_o the_o last_o account_n it_o can_v be_v renew_v or_o restore_v and_o that_o therefore_o upon_o both_o account_n in_o conjunction_n death_n the_o wage_n of_o sin_n can_v never_o more_o return_v and_o then_o when_o a_o life_n restore_v be_v secure_v from_o all_o possible_a return_n of_o death_n we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o such_o life_n so_o restore_v must_v be_v eternal_a and_o agreeable_a to_o what_o we_o now_o say_v st._n paul_n tell_v we_o in_o the_o three_o to_o the_o philippian_n the_o last_o verse_n that_o our_o saviour_n who_o we_o look_v for_o from_o heaven_n shall_v change_v our_o vile_a body_n that_o it_o may_v be_v fashion_v like_o unto_o his_o glorious_a body_n according_a to_o the_o mighty_a work_n whereby_o he_o be_v able_a even_o to_o subdue_v all_o thing_n unto_o himself_o now_o we_o know_v that_o when_o our_o saviour_n appear_v to_o st._n paul_n that_o be_v to_o that_o very_a apostle_n who_o tell_v we_o these_o thing_n he_o do_v express_o affirm_v to_o king_n agrippa_n in_o the_o twenty_o six_o of_o the_o act_n that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o appearance_n be_v above_o the_o brightness_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o yet_o the_o context_n will_v tell_v we_o that_o the_o appearance_n be_v make_v about_o midday_n and_o perhaps_o our_o saviour_n transfiguration_n on_o the_o mount_n be_v a_o proleptick_a discovery_n of_o that_o glory_n with_o which_o his_o body_n be_v to_o be_v clothe_v upon_o his_o ascent_n into_o heaven_n the_o mount_n of_o god_n but_o be_v that_o as_o it_o will_v yet_o to_o our_o purpose_n if_o the_o body_n of_o the_o saint_n shall_v be_v fashion_v like_o unto_o his_o glorious_a body_n than_o it_o will_v be_v no_o improbable_a conclusion_n that_o they_o shall_v with_o that_o glory_n put_v on_o a_o immortal_a frame_n and_o constitution_n and_o this_o conclusion_n will_v then_o advance_v from_o probable_a to_o certain_a when_o we_o know_v that_o the_o same_o apostle_n do_v acquaint_v we_o not_o only_o that_o our_o body_n which_o be_v sow_o in_o dishonour_n shall_v be_v raise_v in_o glory_n but_o over_o and_o above_o that_o this_o corruptible_fw-fr must_v put_v on_o incorruption_n and_o that_o this_o mortal_n must_v put_v on_o immortality_n much_o more_o may_v be_v offer_v on_o this_o subject_a but_o from_o what_o have_v be_v glance_v at_o we_o may_v now_o perceive_v that_o our_o body_n in_o imitation_n of_o our_o saviour_n body_n shall_v after_o its_o resurrection_n be_v endue_v with_o a_o glorious_a frame_n and_o a_o immortal_a constitution_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v by_o his_o power_n as_o it_o shall_v in_o consideration_n of_o his_o merit_n that_o the_o power_n that_o shall_v do_v it_o be_v able_a to_o subdue_v all_o thing_n to_o itself_o that_o be_v be_v omnipotent_a and_o then_o where_o we_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o truth_n and_o the_o power_n of_o omnipotence_n to_o secure_v to_o we_o a_o eternal_a life_n there_o we_o can_v have_v no_o reason_n to_o doubt_v the_o eternity_n of_o such_o life_n the_o second_o thing_n shall_v now_o in_o order_n follow_v which_o be_v to_o show_v wherein_o the_o happiness_n of_o such_o eternal_a life_n do_v consist_v but_o before_o we_o speak_v to_o that_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o two_o or_o three_o practical_a consideration_n which_o as_o they_o look_v back_o to_o what_o have_v be_v speak_v already_o so_o will_v be_v no_o improper_a introduction_n to_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o follow_v 1._o and_o first_o we_o shall_v be_v sensible_a of_o and_o grateful_a for_o that_o bless_a provision_n that_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n have_v make_v for_o our_o everlasting_a happiness_n and_o security_n and_o this_o we_o shall_v so_o much_o the_o rather_o be_v because_o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v we_o may_v now_o understand_v that_o such_o provision_n do_v full_o answer_v to_o our_o high_a natural_a desire_n and_o inclination_n for_o our_o anxiety_n for_o our_o own_o welfare_n will_v tell_v we_o that_o among_o all_o the_o several_a appetite_n by_o which_o we_o pursue_v after_o our_o own_o happiness_n our_o desire_n of_o life_n do_v hold_v the_o first_o and_o chief_a place_n with_o we_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a because_o the_o loss_n of_o life_n must_v needs_o be_v follow_v by_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o other_o enjoyment_n whatsoever_o that_o can_v in_o any_o wise_a conduce_v to_o our_o happiness_n and_o as_o we_o be_v tell_v by_o our_o common_a sense_n that_o our_o grand_a and_o top_v appetite_n be_v that_o of_o life_n so_o we_o be_v tell_v by_o the_o same_o
of_o sin_n let_v we_o first_o hear_v what_o the_o spirit_n say_v who_o in_o the_o four_o to_o the_o ephesian_n the_o four_o and_o five_o verse_n tell_v we_o that_o when_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n be_v come_v god_n send_v forth_o his_o son_n make_v of_o a_o woman_n make_v under_o the_o law_n that_o be_v his_o son_n be_v incarnate_a and_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o make_v so_o as_o to_o be_v oblige_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o it_o to_o redeem_v they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n that_o we_o may_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o son_n and_o when_o we_o be_v tell_v in_o one_o place_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v for_o this_o very_a purpose_n that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o in_o another_o that_o he_o be_v manifest_a to_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o when_o to_o answer_v to_o and_o explain_v the_o mean_v of_o these_o place_n we_o be_v assure_v from_o other_o place_n that_o at_o least_o one_o way_n of_o his_o take_v away_o sin_n be_v by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o as_o in_o the_o twenty_o six_o verse_n of_o the_o nine_o to_o the_o hebrew_n and_o that_o he_o appear_v for_o that_o very_a purpose_n in_o the_o same_o place_n and_o when_o we_o add_v to_o all_o this_o what_o we_o find_v in_o the_o five_o verse_n of_o the_o follow_a chapter_n that_o god_n have_v prepare_v he_o a_o body_n and_o in_o the_o ten_o verse_n that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v that_o be_v our_o sin_n be_v put_v away_o through_o the_o offering_n of_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n once_o for_o all_o who_o as_o st._n peter_n speak_v his_o own_o self_n bear_v our_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o body_n on_o a_o tree_n i_o say_v when_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v all_o along_o in_o the_o scripture_n express_o and_o categorical_o tell_v we_o that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v in_o his_o body_n shed_v his_o blood_n lose_v his_o humane_a life_n for_o our_o sin_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o sinner_n when_o it_o do_v in_o several_a place_n compare_v his_o death_n to_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n when_o it_o call_v he_o the_o lamb_n of_o god_n allude_v to_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n when_o it_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o like_a it_o do_v by_o these_o and_o such_o like_a expression_n as_o much_o as_o word_n can_v do_v it_o acquaint_v we_o at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o he_o suffer_v in_o his_o body_n and_o die_v to_o atone_v for_o and_o to_o expiate_v our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o all_o the_o uncouth_a and_o force_a interpretation_n of_o these_o and_o such_o like_a text_n which_o yet_o be_v a_o multitude_n that_o attempt_n to_o evacuate_v their_o plain_a mean_v may_v as_o soon_o persuade_v a_o honest_a and_o sincere_a man_n that_o the_o scripture_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n be_v a_o book_n full_a of_o collusion_n and_o prevarication_n as_o they_o may_v that_o jesus_n christ_n our_o saviour_n do_v not_o die_v to_o expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n and_o be_v i_o not_o assure_v of_o god_n providence_n i_o shall_v be_v apt_a to_o fear_v that_o the_o devil_n may_v in_o time_n so_o bring_v thing_n about_o that_o if_o he_o can_v upon_o pretence_n of_o reason_n wipe_v away_o that_o part_n of_o the_o bible_n that_o concern_v our_o saviour_n incarnation_n and_o the_o relation_n which_o that_o have_v to_o man_n redemption_n that_o he_o may_v at_o last_o raise_v his_o hope_n of_o blot_v out_o the_o whole_a christian_a religion_n for_o to_o tell_v we_o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v only_o such_o a_o man_n as_o other_o man_n be_v but_o only_o conceive_v in_o a_o different_a and_o therefore_o more_o wonderful_a manner_n to_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o die_v patient_o though_o wrongful_o only_o that_o he_o may_v give_v we_o a_o example_n of_o a_o exact_a patience_n and_o of_o a_o entire_a submission_n to_o god_n providence_n to_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v slay_v a_o sacrifice_n only_o to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o design_n in_o his_o death_n as_o to_o suffer_v for_o or_o to_o expiate_v our_o sin_n as_o it_o be_v a_o notorious_a contradiction_n to_o and_o not_o a_o exposition_n of_o the_o scripture_n so_o for_o that_o very_a reason_n it_o will_v appear_v to_o have_v a_o direct_a tendency_n towards_o the_o overthrow_v the_o grand_a design_n of_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n all_o which_o to_o they_o who_o shall_v scan_v the_o scripture_n exact_o be_v direct_v to_o and_o do_v centre_n in_o the_o saviour_n and_o that_o redemption_n which_o he_o purchase_v for_o mankind_n by_o his_o death_n and_o merit_n have_v therefore_o thus_o in_o short_a take_v notice_n of_o what_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o concern_v the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n by_o the_o sussering_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o have_v already_o make_v it_o out_o 1._o that_o no_o creature_n can_v by_o any_o mean_n expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n and_o 2._o that_o our_o saviour_n be_v god_n incarnate_a or_o god_n and_o man_n unite_v in_o one_o person_n we_o do_v in_o pursuit_n of_o our_o main_a design_n lay_v it_o down_o in_o the_o 3._o three_o place_n that_o the_o way_n and_o method_n of_o man_n salvation_n as_o it_o be_v express_o and_o frequent_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v by_o the_o suffering_n and_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v agreeable_a to_o right_a reason_n and_o exact_o congruous_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o truth_n and_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o justice_n and_o in_o order_n to_o our_o make_v this_o plain_a and_o clear_a we_o take_v notice_n 1._o that_o that_o law_n about_o the_o transgression_n of_o which_o and_o the_o release_n from_o the_o penalty_n of_o such_o transgression_n the_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v only_o concern_v be_v give_v to_o man._n for_o the_o scripture_n give_v we_o no_o account_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o other_o law_n but_o only_o of_o that_o law_n which_o god_n have_v prescribe_v to_o mankind_n and_o therefore_o though_o in_o the_o scripture_n we_o have_v several_a broad_a hint_n of_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o angel_n and_o though_o our_o reason_n tell_v we_o that_o that_o which_o put_v they_o under_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o be_v sin_n in_o the_o general_a yet_o we_o be_v therefore_o ignorant_a what_o their_o sin_n be_v because_o we_o be_v ignorant_a what_o that_o law_n be_v against_o which_o they_o sin_v 2._o we_o take_v notice_n that_o as_o that_o law_n about_o which_o alone_o the_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v concern_v be_v the_o law_n give_v by_o god_n to_o man_n so_o the_o gospel_n take_v no_o other_o or_o far_a notice_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o that_o law_n than_o as_o that_o law_n be_v break_v by_o man._n from_o whence_o we_o infer_v in_o the_o 3._o three_o place_n that_o that_o punishment_n which_o the_o law_n threaten_v against_o those_o who_o transgress_v it_o can_v only_o in_o justice_n belong_v to_o those_o to_o who_o the_o law_n be_v give_v and_o direct_v for_o they_o can_v never_o transgress_v a_o law_n who_o have_v no_o law_n assign_v they_o and_o they_o can_v never_o be_v just_o punish_v for_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n who_o can_v never_o transgress_v the_o law_n the_o law_n therefore_o about_o which_o alone_o a_o gospel-forgiveness_n be_v concern_v be_v the_o law_n give_v to_o man_n and_o transgress_v by_o man_n man_n alone_o can_v just_o suffer_v the_o penalty_n of_o such_o transgression_n from_o whence_o we_o infer_v in_o the_o 4._o four_o place_n that_o if_o any_o penalty_n can_v ever_o just_o expiate_v that_o gild_n which_o be_v contract_v by_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n that_o penalty_n that_o must_v make_v such_o expiation_n must_v be_v a_o penalty_n lay_v upon_o man._n and_o therefore_o our_o common_a sense_n of_o justice_n will_v not_o allow_v we_o to_o think_v that_o either_o angel_n which_o be_v rank_v above_o mankind_n nor_o beast_n which_o be_v rank_v below_o they_o can_v by_o any_o suffering_n whatsoever_o expiate_v or_o atone_v for_o the_o breach_n of_o such_o law_n which_o be_v give_v by_o god_n to_o man_n do_v so_o far_o forth_o concern_v man_n alone_o and_o though_o we_o have_v before_o make_v it_o out_o that_o neither_o angel_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n nor_o brute_n beast_n on_o the_o other_o can_v expiate_v the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n as_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v creature_n yet_o what_o we_o now_o say_v be_v that_o they_o can_v do_v it_o as_o they_o be_v different_a creature_n for_o it_o seem_v necessary_a and_o that_o
