righteousness_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n justification_n and_o sanctification_n flow_v as_o in_o a_o hypostolick_a union_n so_o the_o faith_n that_o receive_v the_o one_o receive_v the_o other_o and_o that_o faith_n which_o have_v that_o specific_a operation_n of_o receive_v christ_n by_o that_o operation_n it_o have_v receive_v therein_o can_v in_o all_o other_o thing_n act_n like_o itself_o and_o as_o it_o receive_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n so_o it_o receive_v the_o image_n of_o it_o in_o which_o all_o good_a work_n lie_v treasure_v ephes_n 2.10_o but_o see_v the_o apostle_n paul_n have_v once_o so_o full_o and_o express_o assert_v to_o faith_n that_o it_o justify_v in_o receive_v christ_n and_o the_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n from_o he_o it_o can_v never_o be_v dismount_v from_o that_o dignity_n but_o whatever_o be_v say_v to_o justify_v must_v be_v so_o personal_o unite_v with_o faith_n receive_v christ_n righteousness_n as_o to_o justify_v only_o as_o it_o be_v so_o unite_a to_o faith_n and_o faith_n to_o christ_n for_o as_o infinite_a righteousness_n can_v have_v no_o addition_n of_o any_o other_o righteousness_n so_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o add_v to_o believe_v in_o it_o but_o what_o must_v fall_v into_o the_o essence_n of_o believe_v or_o receive_v in_o this_o point_n of_o justification_n for_o else_o something_o must_v be_v add_v to_o the_o righteousness_n itself_o which_o can_v be_v if_o it_o be_v a_o infinite_a righteousness_n without_o a_o contradiction_n and_o even_o this_o faith_n can_v not_o be_v raise_v out_o of_o ourselves_o but_o be_v from_o the_o beam_n of_o that_o righteousness_n shine_v about_o the_o heart_n the_o spirit_n strengthen_v the_o inner_a man_n and_o draw_v it_o to_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v dwell_v in_o it_o i_o come_v then_o to_o the_o conclusive_a point_n the_o reconcile_a dr._n crisps_n sermon_n with_o mr._n baxter_n in_o order_n to_o which_o i_o make_v these_o observation_n 1._o god_n give_v to_o the_o variety_n of_o his_o servant_n a_o diversify_v poiz_o of_o spirit_n in_o some_o it_o come_v near_a to_o the_o son_n of_o thunder_n in_o other_o to_o the_o son_n of_o oil_n or_o consolation_n thus_o the_o apostle_n james_n in_o his_o epistle_n be_v as_o a_o son_n of_o thunder_n the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o free_a grace_n as_o a_o son_n of_o consolation_n but_o in_o both_o these_o two_o breathe_v one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n divide_v to_o each_o as_o it_o please_v he_o and_o so_o i_o doubt_v not_o in_o these_o two_o eminent_a minister_n of_o christ_n the_o same_o spirit_n have_v wrought_v wherein_o their_o way_n of_o preach_v or_o write_v seem_v to_o differ_v most_o abate_v to_o each_o (null)_o infirmity_n and_o not_o attribute_v to_o either_o the_o infallible_a spirit_n that_o guide_v the_o writer_n of_o scripture_n in_o their_o writing_n 2._o i_o observe_v in_o scripture_n the_o spirit_n often_o in_o the_o point_n it_o be_v upon_o move_v straight_o forward_a and_o in_o a_o stream_n like_o a_o torrent_n and_o take_v notice_n of_o nothing_o to_o hinder_v but_o have_v in_o due_a place_n balance_v every_o truth_n one_o with_o another_o thus_o the_o apostle_n paul_n move_v on_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n of_o the_o ungodly_a by_o faith_n in_o christ_n without_o work_n rom._n c._n 3._o c._n 4._o c._n 5._o and_o then_o c._n 6._o consider_v and_o fore-prize_n the_o bad_a consequence_n that_o may_v be_v draw_v from_o it_o the_o apostle_n james_n dictate_v to_o by_o the_o same_o spirit_n even_o deride_v a_o confession_n of_o faith_n that_o have_v not_o work_n that_o be_v a_o effective_a power_n of_o do_v thing_n like_o itself_o as_o utter_o impotent_a to_o justify_v or_o save_v because_o it_o receive_v none_o of_o the_o mighty_a influence_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v thence_o evident_a it_o have_v not_o receive_v that_o righteousness_n itself_o and_o herein_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o apostle_n james_n run_v so_o high_a as_o to_o offer_v a_o seem_a contradiction_n to_o itself_o in_o the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o leave_v to_o the_o searcher_n of_o scripture_n to_o find_v the_o true_a key_n of_o the_o intrepretation_n but_o herein_o be_v no_o cause_n to_o either_o apostle_n to_o be_v offend_v one_o with_o another_o or_o for_o the_o reader_n of_o either_o to_o be_v offend_v with_o either_o of_o they_o but_o they_o be_v to_o lay_v both_o together_o and_o thereby_o to_o deduce_v the_o whole_a scripture_n truth_n in_o the_o very_a same_o matter_n though_o not_o with_o so_o high_a a_o deference_n to_o either_o of_o these_o two_o minister_n of_o jesus_n christ_n all_o which_o they_o both_o have_v speak_v according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v lay_v together_o and_o neither_o part_n to_o be_v consider_v principal_o as_o from_o they_o but_o as_o from_o one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n guide_v both_o in_o each_o part_n of_o truth_n according_a to_o his_o word_n and_o the_o dispensation_n commit_v to_o each_o of_o they_o one_o single_o and_o sole_o exalt_v the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o our_o whole_a foundation_n and_o comfort_n and_o in_o case_n of_o great_a difficulty_n and_o darkness_n to_o be_v rest_v upon_o alone_o and_o yet_o always_o imply_v and_o many_o time_n express_v and_o never_o contradict_v that_o this_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n flow_v out_o with_o all_o holiness_n the_o other_o more_o insist_v upon_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n in_o its_o impress_n of_o mortification_n by_o conformity_n to_o his_o death_n and_o of_o sanctification_n by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o resurrection_n the_o one_o most_o necessary_a when_o conscience_n have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n the_o other_o necessary_a in_o the_o course_n of_o a_o christian_a conversation_n but_o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v the_o increated_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v infinite_a and_o all_o inherent_a righteousness_n consider_v as_o we_o and_o distinct_a from_o christ_n from_o which_o yet_o it_o can_v never_o be_v separate_v be_v create_v and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o very_o scanty_a and_o imperfect_a the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v most_o radical_a and_o the_o standard_n by_o which_o all_o inherent_a righteousness_n must_v in_o the_o discourse_n of_o it_o be_v bound_v and_o wherever_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v receive_v holiness_n infallible_o follow_v whereas_o a_o seem_o good_a conversation_n often_o miss_v that_o root_n but_o far_o be_v it_o to_o suppose_v mr._n baxer_n in_o all_o his_o discourse_n press_v mortification_n and_o holiness_n have_v not_o so_o learned_a and_o so_o teach_v as_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o jesus_n that_o his_o righteousness_n be_v our_o alone_a justification_n but_o i_o be_o much_o persuade_v dr._n crisp_n be_v raise_v up_o on_o purpose_n by_o god_n to_o

till_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o it_o so_o i_o collect_v from_o the_o additional_a sermon_n which_o be_v not_o of_o so_o rich_a a_o savour_n of_o those_o good_a ointment_n and_o speedy_o after_o he_o

of_o christ_n so_o single_o and_o whole_o for_o though_o he_o and_o they_o be_v several_a man_n to_o we_o and_o their_o preach_v several_a yet_o they_o be_v all_o star_n together_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o truth_n take_v together_o one_o though_o the_o truth_n he_o preach_v be_v certain_o of_o the_o high_a orb_n and_o it_o shall_v be_v remember_v to_o his_o honour_n when_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n be_v preach_v for_o i_o be_o much_o persuade_v as_o the_o preach_a these_o sermon_n be_v before_o a_o notable_a break_v out_o of_o gospel_n light_n and_o truth_n and_o a_o

can_v but_o hope_n the_o reprint_n of_o these_o sermon_n be_v order_v by_o providence_n as_o a_o fore-running_a of_o a_o much_o clear_a open_n of_o that_o kingdom_n of_o redemption_n in_o
