concern_v the_o resurrection_n because_o from_o the_o authority_n of_o holy_a scripture_n as_o well_o as_o right_a reason_n we_o deny_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o same_o gross_a and_o

indeed_o of_o all_o man_n most_o miserable_a but_o bless_v be_v god_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v true_a that_o we_o most_o steadfast_o believe_v that_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n and_o be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o the_o resurrection_n so_o every_o man_n in_o his_o own_o order_n shall_v arise_v they_o that_o have_v do_v well_o to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o eternal_a life_n but_o they_o that_o have_v do_v evil_a to_o everlasting_a condemnation_n and_o because_o we_o be_v a_o people_n who_o education_n have_v not_o afford_v we_o a_o accuracy_n of_o language_n some_o passage_n may_v perhaps_o have_v be_v mis-expressed_a or_o improper_o word_v as_o for_o instance_n one_o of_o we_o have_v deny_v in_o

uncharitable_a opposer_n have_v conclude_v we_o hold_v the_o soul_n to_o be_v infinite_a and_o consequent_o god_n whereas_o the_o word_n before_o and_o after_o as_o well_o as_o the_o nature_n of_o

because_o we_o have_v not_o declare_v ourselves_o about_o matter_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o many_o and_o critical_a word_n that_o man_n wisdom_n teach_v but_o in_o the_o word_n which_o the_o holy_a

the_o efficacy_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n to_o justification_n as_o first_o we_o can_v believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n but_o the_o effect_n of_o god_n love_n according_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o belove_a disciple_n john_n chap._n 3._o god_n have_v so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v give_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n into_o the_o world_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v on_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n second_o we_o can_v say_v god_n can_v not_o have_v take_v another_o way_n to_o have_v save_v sinner_n than_o by_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o his_o son_n to_o satisfy_v his_o justice_n or_o that_o christ_n death_n and_o suffering_n be_v a_o strict_a and_o rigid_a satisfaction_n for_o that_o eternal_a death_n and_o misery_n due_a to_o man_n for_o sin_n and_o transgression_n for_o such_o a_o notion_n be_v to_o make_v god_n mercy_n little_o concern_v in_o man_n salvation_n and_o indeed_o we_o be_v at_o too_o great_a a_o distance_n from_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o power_n to_o judge_v of_o the_o liberty_n or_o necessity_n of_o his_o act_n three_o we_o can_v say_v jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o world_n because_o he_o bear_v our_o sin_n on_o the_o cross_n or_o because_o he_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o who_o never_o know_v any_o sin_n a_o expression_n of_o great_a levity_n and_o unsoundness_n yet_o often_o say_v by_o great_a preacher_n and_o professor_n of_o religion_n four_o we_o can_v believe_v that_o christ_n death_n and_o suffering_n so_o satisfy_v god_n or_o justify_v man_n as_o that_o they_o be_v thereby_o accept_v of_o god_n they_o be_v indeed_o thereby_o put_v into_o a_o state_n capable_a of_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o through_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o acceptance_n for_o we_o can_v never_o think_v a_o man_n justify_v before_o god_n while_o self-condemned_n or_o that_o any_o man_n can_v be_v in_o christ_n who_o be_v not_o a_o new_a creature_n or_o that_o god_n look_v upon_o man_n otherwise_o than_o they_o be_v we_o think_v it_o a_o state_n of_o presumption_n and_o not_o of_o salvation_n to_o call_v jesus_n lord_n and_o not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n master_n and_o he_o not_o master_n of_o our_o affection_n

glory_n of_o this_o world_n which_o whoever_o do_v will_v deceive_v themselves_o for_o god_n will_v not_o be_v mock_v such_o as_o man_n sow_v such_o must_v they_o reap_v and_o though_o christ_n do_v die_v for_o we_o yet_o we_o must_v by_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o grace_n work_v out_o our_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v as_o he_o die_v for_o sin_n so_o we_o must_v die_v to_o sin_n or_o we_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n or_o thorough_o justify_v and_o accept_v with_o god_n but_o now_o positive_o what_o we_o own_o as_o to_o

his_o stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v of_o the_o wound_v adam_n give_v we_o in_o his_o fall_n and_o that_o god_n be_v just_a in_o forgive_a true_a penitent_n upon_o the_o credit_n of_o that_o holy_a offer_v christ_n make_v of_o himself_o to_o god_n for_o we_o and_o that_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v satisfy_v and_o please_v god_n it_o be_v for_o the_o take_v of_o fall_v man_n that_o have_v

full_a and_o clear_a acceptance_n before_o god_n for_o want_v of_o this_o latter_a part_n it_o be_v that_o so_o many_o soul_n religious_o incline_v be_v often_o under_o doubt_n scruple_n and_o

nothing_o we_o can_v do_v though_o by_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v able_a to_o cancel_v old_a debt_n or_o wipe_v out_o old_a score_n it_o be_v the_o power_n and_o efficacy_n of_o that_o propitiatory_a offer_n upon_o faith_n and_o repentance_n that_o justify_v we_o from_o the_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a and_o it_o be_v the_o power_n of_o christ_n spirit_n in_o our_o heart_n that_o purify_v and_o make_v we_o acceptable_a before_o god_n for_o till_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v turn_v from_o sin_n god_n will_v never_o accept_v of_o it_o he_o reprove_v rebuke_n and_o
