grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n therefore_o who_o he_o love_v he_o will_v always_o love_v the_o next_o question_n be_v whether_o we_o may_v be_v now_o by_o christ_n say_v to_o adam_n the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n do_v not_o infer_v that_o therefore_o we_o be_v more_o righteous_a than_o adam_n be_v more_o righteous_a than_o adam_n for_o so_o a_o antinomian_a in_o his_o treatise_n of_o justification_n pag._n 320._o 321._o quote_v place_n out_o of_o some_o author_n as_o affirm_v this_o that_o now_o by_o christ_n we_o have_v a_o more_o perfect_a righteousness_n then_o that_o of_o angel_n or_o be_v lose_v in_o adam_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n labour_n to_o prove_v that_o we_o be_v so_o holy_a that_o god_n can_v see_v no_o sin_n in_o we_o now_o to_o answer_v this_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o the_o orthodox_n sometime_o have_v use_v such_o expression_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n because_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v he_o be_v of_o infinite_a value_n and_o consequence_n and_o so_o as_o we_o be_v in_o a_o mediator_n we_o be_v in_o a_o better_a and_o sure_a condition_n than_o the_o angel_n or_o adam_n be_v but_o they_o never_o use_v such_o expression_n to_o the_o antinomian_a sense_n as_o if_o hereby_o we_o be_v make_v not_o only_o perfect_o righteous_a but_o also_o holy_a and_o without_o sin_n this_o opinion_n be_v at_o large_a to_o be_v refute_v in_o the_o treatise_n about_o justification_n only_o thus_o much_o take_v for_o a_o answer_n that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o hold_v the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n do_v not_o necessary_o infer_v that_o therefore_o we_o have_v righteousness_n more_o excellent_a than_o angel_n or_o adam_n for_o it_o be_v only_o impute_v to_o we_o for_o that_o righteousness_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v it_o be_v not_o make_v we_o in_o that_o largeness_n or_o latitude_n as_o it_o be_v christ_n but_o as_o we_o need_v it_o now_o god_n never_o require_v of_o we_o such_o a_o holiness_n as_o the_o angel_n have_v or_o a_o great_a righteousness_n than_o adam_n have_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o senseless_a thing_n to_o imagine_v that_o that_o shall_v be_v make_v we_o which_o we_o never_o need_v or_o ever_o be_v bind_v to_o have_v so_o that_o those_o expression_n of_o the_o orthodox_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o a_o sound_a sense_n 7._o whether_o that_o which_o god_n require_v of_o we_o be_v great_a then_o that_o he_o innocency_n what_o god_n require_v of_o we_o be_v not_o great_a than_o what_o he_o demand_v of_o adam_n in_o innocency_n demand_v of_o adam_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n for_o thus_o the_o arminian_o hold_v that_o great_a ability_n be_v now_o require_v of_o a_o man_n to_o believe_v the_o gospel_n than_o be_v of_o adam_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n partly_o because_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v consist_v in_o mere_a revelation_n which_o the_o law_n do_v not_o as_o also_o because_o all_o the_o action_n require_v by_o the_o gospel_n do_v suppose_v a_o resurrection_n from_o that_o first_o fall_n now_o say_v they_o more_o be_v require_v to_o rise_v from_o a_o fall_n then_o to_o prevent_v a_o fall_n and_o all_o this_o they_o urge_v to_o prove_v the_o necessity_n of_o universal_a grace_n give_v to_o all_o now_o to_o answer_v this_o first_o i_o conclude_v as_o before_o have_v be_v prove_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o justify_v faith_n be_v in_o adam_n though_o there_o be_v not_o such_o a_o particular_a object_n about_o which_o it_o may_v be_v exercise_v for_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o not_o have_v such_o a_o name_n which_o it_o have_v from_o a_o certain_a respect_n to_o some_o object_n that_o now_o be_v not_o or_o from_o some_o effect_n which_o it_o can_v now_o produce_v so_o mercy_n and_o grace_n be_v in_o god_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o always_o but_o as_o it_o have_v respect_n to_o a_o miserable_a and_o wretched_a creature_n that_o be_v not_o till_o the_o creature_n be_v make_v so_o and_o so_o in_o adam_n there_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o love_n and_o pity_n but_o yet_o in_o regard_n of_o some_o effect_n which_o can_v not_o be_v exercise_v in_o that_o estate_n his_o love_n can_v have_v no_o such_o name_n as_o mercy_n or_o pity_n thus_o adam_n for_o his_o faith_n that_o faith_n which_o he_o do_v put_v forth_o in_o god_n promise_n about_o eternal_a life_n upon_o his_o obedience_n be_v a_o justify_v faith_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o but_o have_v not_o the_o denomination_n or_o respect_n of_o justify_v because_o such_o a_o object_n be_v impossible_a in_o that_o condition_n hence_o that_o faith_n of_o dependency_n which_o adam_n have_v be_v the_o same_o in_o nature_n which_o justify_v faith_n be_v therefore_o to_o the_o argument_n propose_v we_o deny_v that_o great_a strength_n be_v require_v to_o rise_v then_o to_o keep_v from_o fall_v for_o the_o same_o thing_n which_o will_v have_v preserve_v adam_n from_o fall_v as_o say_v in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o same_o also_o be_v require_v for_o a_o man_n to_o rise_v and_o as_o adam_n will_v have_v stand_v as_o long_o as_o his_o faith_n in_o god_n stand_v the_o devil_n labour_v to_o shake_v that_o by_o his_o temptation_n so_o christ_n pray_v for_o peter_n a_o man_n fall_v by_o adam_n do_v especial_o pray_v that_o his_o faith_n may_v not_o fail_v because_o by_o that_o he_o be_v support_v and_o strengthen_v last_o whether_o adam_n immortality_n in_o that_o estate_n be_v not_o different_a heaven_n adam_n immortality_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n different_a from_o &_o short_a of_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n from_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n yes_o it_o be_v very_o plain_a it_o be_v so_o for_o he_o be_v so_o immortal_a as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o possibility_n of_o mortality_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o those_o that_o be_v glorify_v again_o he_o be_v so_o immortal_a as_o that_o he_o have_v a_o natural_a body_n which_o do_v need_v nourishment_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o those_o that_o be_v make_v happy_a it_o be_v true_a we_o have_v heretofore_o conclude_v that_o adam_n in_o his_o first_o estate_n be_v natural_o immortal_a for_o if_o death_n have_v be_v natural_a god_n have_v be_v the_o author_n of_o death_n and_o man_n will_v not_o have_v abhor_v it_o neither_o do_v christ_n die_v simple_o because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n but_o because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n make_v for_o we_o who_o ought_v to_o die_v because_o of_o our_o sin_n indeed_o because_o adam_n do_v eat_v and_o drink_v and_o his_o body_n be_v a_o natural_a body_n therefore_o there_o be_v mortality_n in_o he_o in_o a_o remote_a power_n but_o actual_a mortality_n be_v hinder_v by_o reason_n of_o that_o glorious_a condition_n he_o be_v place_v in_o and_o therefore_o not_o actual_o to_o die_v but_o to_o be_v in_o a_o mortal_a state_n be_v threaten_v as_o a_o punishment_n to_o he_o of_o all_o
