So that when the Peoples Sins were laid by God's appointment on the Beast then the Beast was by God called the Sin as Christ was called Sin or made by God Sin for us by our Sins being laid on him and yet notwithstanding that the Goat had the Sins of the People laid on him and therefore called Sin yet at the same time it is most Holy or Holiness of Holinesses Kodesh Kadashim In answer to which when God made Christ to be Sin he saith of him That he knew no Sin he being most Holy Holiness of Holinesses untainted undefiled with our Sins he was at the same time the Lamb of God without Spot in himself and need there was for it for if he had not been Holy to the Extremity of Holiness in his own Nature and Person he had not been fit to be made a Sin offering for us If he had had the least speck of Sin in him or could have been tainted with our Sin he had not then been a meet Sacrifice to take away our sin Though he was made sin yet it was our sin he was made sin for us Was the poor Beast made sin in it self or for it self when the sins of the People were laid typically on it No sure for if it were the Scape-goat could not have been led into the Wilderness but the sin would have sunk it down dead immediately The sin it was made was the Peoples sin as the sin Christ was made was our sin §. CLVII This may possibly be the better understood and the more readily assented to by seriously considering the Infinite Perfection of the Holy Nature of the Blessed Son of God which was and is the same in the Man Christ Jesus as in the Godhead of the Father he and the Father being one in Essence and in all the glorious Perfections of the Godhead This Consideration may by the Operation of the Holy Spirit reconcile our Thoughts to this Truth That though Christ was made Sin for us and a Curse for us by having our Sins laid on him and by his hanging on the Tree for us yet his Holy Immaculate Person was not in the least tainted or defiled thereby nay God so ordered it that his holy Flesh when dead should not see the least Corruption This appears clear because the Infinite Holiness of the Godhead in the Man Christ Jesus was of such Infinite Perfection in him that the Sins of Men falling on him they being but Finite must of necessity be evacuated exinanitiated expiated and purged away by Infinite Perfection As a little for Illustration Suppose a small drop of Water out of a Smith's Trough should fall on a glowing red-hot large piece of Iron Can this defile or hurt the Iron No 't is immediately evaporated in Smoak 'T is true the Humanity of our Lord Jesus might be and was affected with our sins so as to cry out My Soul is troubled but he was not in the least infected with them his Humanity being made perfectly Holy by Union and Oneness with the Divine Nature in an ineffable manner at his very first Conception his Humane Nature being called that holy thing Luke 1.35 so that he was untainted by our sins being laid on him which he purged away by the offering up of himself in the Fire of God's Wrath upon him for sin §. CLVIII We will suppose again That all the Gold in the World should be put into a vast Cauldron and Ten hundred thousand load of Charcoal under it and about it melting the Gold and while this vast Fire is glowing with an unconceivable heat the Refiner should cast a small drop of Poyson into the Furnace where this boyling Gold is Would not this drop of Poyson be consumed at its first falling into the Furnace without defiling the Gold So the sins of the Elect though they deserve Hell Fire to all Eternity on the guilty Sinners yet these sins when laid on the Person of God-Man Jesus Christ who hath infinitely more Holiness than our sins have of Deliquity or Malignity in them When these sins were laid on our Lord Jesus they could no more taint our Lord Jesus than the drop of Poyson could taint all the Gold in the Furnace Wherefore it is said by the Holy Spirit when he is giving an account of the glorious Perfection of the Divine Nature of Christ in Heb. 1.3 calling him the Brightness the Effulgency of the Father's Glory the express Image of his Person the Upholder of all things by the Word of his Power The very first and next effect of all this glorious Excellency in the Person of Christ is when he had by himself purged our Sins As much as to say this great Character that is here given to Jesus Christ which mortifies the Socinians is given for this very purpose to shew us how he by himself by his own glorious Perfection as the Brightness of the Father's Glory when our sins were laid on him he by himself without any assistance or Cooperation of us or any Man or Angel he by himself saith the Holy Ghost purged our sins he made a perfect Expiation of them the glowing Holiness of the Divine Nature purged them clear away so as never to be remembred more and that without any taint to himself that being impossible he being the brightness of the Father's Glory so pure and Holy is our blessed Lord God the Lord Jesus Christ God blessed for ever to whom be glory for ever §. CLIX. By this I hope we may see that the Consideration of the most adorable Holiness in our Lord Jesus may reconcile us to such Passages as we find in the Scripture of his bearing our sins and his being made Sin and a Curse for us without any ground of charging it with such bad Consequences as the Bishop intimates That this tends to lessen our Reverence of the Divine Perfections whereas nothing can heighten our Reverence more for this shews that his Divine Perfections were so Infinite that by bearing our Sins in his Body on the Tree and by offering himself with our Sins on him a Sacrifice to God for Sin he thereby expiated and purged all the Sins of all the Elect one of which by reason of the infinitely Holy Nature and Law of God would have sunk all the Angels in Heaven to Hell if by God laid on them Therefore instead of diminishing our Esteem of the Divine Perfections because Christ hath borne away our Sins for ever freely without any Conditions or Works of ours to induce him Let us by all means endeavour to magnifie them and for the Riches of the Grace of God and our Lord Jesus therein Let us fall down and adore him that sits on the Throne and the Lamb in the midst of the Throne for that he of his free Grace hath loved us and washed us from our Sins in his Blood and sing with the four Beasts and 24 Elders with the People in the four parts of the World and with
of God O these severe great tremendous Things How should we revere them §. CXXVII This I find ingeniously and fully answered by Dr. Chancy who asks Mr. Williams What difference there is between God's wrathful Indignation as Mr. Williams owns and to be as it were abhorred of God as Dr. Crisp mentions But that I may more fully clear this from being a dangerous Notion of Dr. Crisp's I have recourse to the Scriptures of the Old Testament in the Original to see what is there said of Christ's being under the Father's Displeasure and there I find in Terminis that our Lord Jesus Christ is spoken of as abhorred of God when made a Curse for us bearing our Sins and made Sin The place is plain in Psal 89.38 there 't is said Thou hast cast off and abhorred thou hast been wrath with thine anointed And who is this anointed one whom the Lord did cast off and abhor and was wrath with but our blessed Lord Jesus So the whole Psalm shews especially the 36th Verse His Seed shall endure for ever and Verse 51 Thine enemies have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed And that these Reproaches are those that Christ bore compare Psal 69.9 with Rom. 15.3 The Reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me saith Christ Hence 't is plain that these are the words of our Lord Jesus to his Father Thou hast cast off and abhorred The words are severe in the Hebrew ve attah zanashta and thou hast eloyned or cast me far away vat-timeas and thou hast reprobated so arius montanus at tu elongasti reprobasti Here he makes the word go higher than our Translators render it he renders it Thou hast reprobated thine anointed thy Messiah whereas our Translators do rather mollifie than exasperate the word timeas and say Thou hast aborred This word timeas comes from maas in other Scriptures by the due weighing whereof we may the better understand and so be the more affected with the dreadful Sufferings of our Lord Jesus and so love him the more for his being abhorred of the Father as he was made Sin and a Curse for us while at the same time he was in his own Person the Holy Spotless Beloved â—lessed Son of God §. CXXVIII As to this word maas used in Psal 89 of Christ we find it used in Lev. 26.13 God speaking of the reason of his forsaking Israel saith it is be-misâ—pata i maasu because they despised my Judgments so we render it but Montanus renders it strictly thus In Juditiis meis reprobaverunt against my Judgments they had reprobated The same Reprobation Job makes on himself when he considered his former Passion and saith Job 42.6 Wherefore I abhor my self yal cen emeas idcirco reprobabo therefore I reprobate my self So that in strictness the Original Text with Montanus is That God did account the Lord Jesus as one that he had reprobated for a Season in Psal 89 38. For saith our Lord attah zanachta vat-timeas thou hast cast far away and thou hast reprobated And surely Christ Jesus who felt the Bruises of God the Pains of Hell that caught hold of him when our Sins were on him when he cried yea skreemed out upon the Cross My God my God why hast thou forsaken me Surely he could best tell how to express himself as he did in that place Thou hast cast off and abhorred or reprobated §. CXXIX So again in Lev. 26.44 God in his infinite Mercy saith of his beloved People Israel When they are in the Land of their Enemies I will not abhor them loa meastem non reprobavi I will not reprobate them O wonderful Love and Grace Though our Lord Jesus said Reprobasti concerning himself thou hast reprobated me Yet God saith of his Israel now in strange Lands non reprobavi eos I have not reprobated them As much as to say Therefore was our Dear Jesus reprobated in that Sense that we his People might not be reprobated for ever For which to him be everlasting Praise §. CXXX The same word is in Psal 78.15 imeas meod be-israel we render He greatly abhorred Israel Montanus Et reprobavis valde in Israel which is And he reprobated exceedingly against Israel And though our Translators have been very shy of rendring that word maas for reprobating yet in Jer. 6.30 there they take the word as Montanus doth for Reprobation in that place the Hebrew is ceseph nimas karen la hem which in Montanus is Argentum reprobatum vocarunt eis Silver Reprobate they shall call them and we have it translated so word for word almost Reprobate Silver shall Men call them and if nimas is Reprobate here 't is the same when our Lord Jesus uses the word of himself Psal 89.38 where he calls himself as abhorred of God Thus we have full Testimony of the high Displeasure of the Father against his beloved Son as to Manifestation when he as our Surety had our Sins laid on him §. CXXXI But Montanus his Version of maas which we translate abhorred being but one Witness for so great a word and thing and by the Mouth of two Witnesses every Truth being to be confirmed I therefore for the better ascertaining the Sense of that word which so fully proves the Father's displeasure against Christ I turned to the word maas in the Incomparably Learned and Laborious Dr Edmund Castle 's Polyglot Lexicon of the seven Oriental Languages of which my Dear Kratiste I am sure had one given him to see what Collections he hath made on that word it being of infinite Consequence to see and know what our Lord Jesus suffered for us most of which Sufferings being contained in that word maas abhorred of the Father This I thought the more worthy of diligent inquiry into that we seeing its import might the more admire and adore the Infinite Love of the Father so to treat his well beloved his only begotten Son and the equally Infinite Love of this blessed Son of God manifested in his spontaneous free willing accepting and undergoing that dreadful Punishment from the Hand of his Father for us so as thereupon to skreem out upon the Cross My God my God why hast thou â—oâ—saken me In turning to which word maas there I find these rendrings following given to it maas saith Dr. Castle upon it signifies Sprevit Respuit reprobavit abjecit aspernatus Aversatus est All dreadful words to be attributed by our Lord Jesus to himself as he doth that maas in Psal 89.38 saying to God ve-attah timeas which according to Dr. Castle is and thou hast reprobated and thou hast been averse against me or thou hast spued me out or thou hast cast me away Thus was our Blessed Lord under the Father's Wrath for our Sins when it pleased the Father to Bruise him that by his Stripes we might be healed O was ever Love like this God-like Love of our Lord to bear this for us For which to him be Honour Glory and Praise

Presbyterian Society to fall so much below himself as to use such Terms as are very indecent in small Matters but much more in so weighty a Matter as the Debate was about viz. The Justification of Sinners and the Satisfaction of our Lord Jesus O whither will the gratifying of a fluent Wit transport a Man that is in love with himself when the luscious Humour of advancing it is a float However his Juvenile Strains of Wit might be pleasant yea laudable in a Protestant Almanack they are not at all palatable but distastful in a grave Divine especially when treating of the greatest Points of God's Glory in Man's Salvation by our Lord Jesus O that he and I could often mind that blessed Advice of our Lord Learn of me for I am meek and lowly who when he was reviled reviled not again §. III. From this blustering Porch let us see if we may find better Weather in the House though some Men find the worst Storms within doors I come therefore to Page the 5th of the Rebuke where he saith the Reporter has left out New Obedience and Good Works out of the account he gives of the Substance of the Gospel and then by way of a smiling Banter he saith the Reporter said The Substance of the Gospel lyes in what Christ suffered for them This he seems to disallow which I look on with a sad Eye For if what Christ hath done for us all his Life as well as his Death being his Suffering if this be not the Substance of the Gospel what will become of us If the Rebuker consults Luke 2.10 he will find that our New Obedience and Good Works are not the Substance of the Gospel but that to us is born a Saviour The Angel tells the Substance of the Gospel there I evangelize to you great Joy which shall be to all People for to you is born this day a Saviour Christ the Lord. Evangelizomai I Gospelize this to you Here we see what the Gospel is it is glad Tidings And what is this glad Tidings It is that Christ a Saviour was born Here 's not one word of New Obedience or our Good Works to be part of the Substance of the Gospel they come in as Fruits of the Spirit upon receiving the Gospel but are no more the Substance of the Gospel than the Holy Law of God is the Substance of the Gospel But the Law came by Moses and Grace and Truth by Jesus Christ Surely the Spirit of God knew better how to give an account of the Gospel what it is than any he calls We poor Presbyterians And for any to jeer at Christ's Sufferings for us for its being called the Substance of the Gospel it may trouble their Consciences one day when they shall be forc'd to fly to that as their tutissimum est as Bellarmine did though some think too late O! how should we have a Care that our Wit do not put us on jesting with the Gospel which in its discovering Christ to be all in all to us our Wisdom Righteousness Sanctification and Redemption is the Power of God to Salvation We should consider what the Apostle counted the Substance of the Gospel when he said I determined to know nothing among you but Christ and him crucified This was his great Study Christ and his Sufferings so it should be ours §. IV. In Page 6. he saith Give me my Bible again This Jest may be returned with seriousness It is well he call'd for his Bible again for he had spoke without Book sadly before in saying Good Works are to come in in the Substance of the Gospel This 't is for Men to speak without the Bible which alone by the Spirit makes wise to Salvation But I fear some sad use he will make of his Bible for it soon follows in the same Page that which I grieve at viz. his making a Jest of Christ's putting himself into our Place State and Condition which he jeers with the Socinian Retort If so then saith he Christ was destitute of a Righteousness and we too to intitle us to Eternal Life For Answer If Christ was not in our Place State and Condition what 's become of the Gospel We have lost it if the Just did not suffer for the Unjust if the Lord did not lay on him the Iniquity of us all if he was not the Man of Sorrows that bare our Griefs Was he not in our Place State and Condition in all this And to say that then he was destitute of a Righteousness is to deny his being God-Man or not to distinguish between his being Perfect in himself and so holy harmless separate from Sinners and his being made Sin and a Curse for us as being our Representative Methinks those that call themselves Poor Presbyterians should not so coalesce with the Socinians to enforce such a Consequence from Christs being our Surety as the Socinians do to say That if Christ stood in our Place then he wanted a Righteousness in himself You may as well say that Christ was not made Righteousness to us if he was made Sin for us how could he be both Very well He was made our Righteousness as we having his compleat God-like yea God's Righteousness as it was his Righteousness the Son of God imputed to us so he was made Righteousness to us and he was made Sin for us by the Lord 's imputing and laying our Sins on him and yet he though made Sin was still the most holy Son of God without Sin in him §. V. In the next Assault he insults over the Reporter for saying we are Sin What though that very word is not in the Text What is it less to be sinful to be sold under Sin conceived in Sin yea to be a Body of Sin But the fling is against the Change Christ's being made Sin and a Curse and we thereby delivered from Sin and the Curse Suppose Man is not said in Scripture to be Sin Sin it self and that that is a debasing Man below being born in Sin and having a Body of Sin will you find fault with him or any for lessening of Man so whereas Christ is far more lessened For it is said positively God made him to be Sin for us and that no Man can have the Face to deny that owns Revealed Religion But many will so mince his being made Sin for us that at last it shall be like some Minc'd Pyes that shall not taste a jot of the Meat in them They say in words he was made Sin but they distinguish away every bit of the Sin and say Christ only bore the Punishment due to Sin As if God should be so Unjust as to punish Christ for Sin when no Sin was upon him If Christ our Lord in being made Sin for us had not our very Sins laid on him by God and borne by himself on the Tree why was he punished Will you make God Unrighteous to lay Sin upon him to bruise him for our
I have loved thee with an Everlasting Love Which Everlasting Love all agree is as well from Eternity past as to Eternity to come and if loved from Eternity what is that short of being then justified For God loved them as he saw them in Christ undertaken for to be justified by his Righteousness But that which goes higher they were the Delight of Christ from all Eternity Prov. 8.26 30 31. While as yet he had not made the Earth I was by him as one brought up with him I was dayly his Delights and my Delights were with the Sons of Men. Here was the high Effect of Eternal Love Jesus Christ the Wisdom of the Father he from all Eternity and in all Eternity he was the Delights of the Father and during the same Eternity the Son's Delights were with or in the Elect given him of the Father Thine they were and thou gavest them me So that there was an Eternal Complacency in the Lord Jesus in and to all that he was to redeem by laying down his Life and if so did not he delight in them as having Grace given to them in Christ before the World was And so he looks on them as Redeemed as Justified and as Sanctified by him though it was not actually accomplished in their Persons yet it was actually concluded between the Father and Son in the Council of Peace Zach. 6.13 and God thereupon took Christ's Word or Covenant for it as if it were actually done upon which account Abraham and all the Old Testament Believers were justified and saved before Christ had actually paid the Ransome for many Thus being undertaken for by Christ from Eternity they were lookt on by God as having a representative being in Christ from all Eternity when chosen in him and Grace given them in him from all Eternity in 2 Tim. 1.9 And this our Representative being from all Eternity in Christ even Mr. Clark himself in his Notes on the Bible was forc d to allow Therefore to renounce absolutely that the Elect are justified in the sight of God before their effectual calling is to bear hard on those Scriptures that declare God's Everlasting Love to them and Christ's Delight in them from all Eternity and Grace given them in Christ before they are effectually called of which see Mr. Pemble and Dr. Twiss by and by §. XIX I cannot pass without a Remark on the different Epithets the Rebuker gives to Socinianism and his Crispian Antinomianism How softly doth he tread on the Graves of Horrid Socinians and how ruffly he deals with the Independants for that which he calls in them Antinomianism It is in fol. 25 where Socinianism he calls but an Error but Antinomianism is Heresie thus The Vnited Brethren had given demonstration against all Socinian Errors They did try these Dissenting Brethren Mr. Griffith Cole Mathers whether they were sound in the Faith in opposition to the Antinomian Heresies of which he gives a Catalogue of 21. So that with them it is but an Error or a small Peccadillo a little Trip to deny the Deity and Satisfaction of our Lord Jesus with the Socinians but it is an Heresie a damning Heresie to say That an Elect Person is in the sight of God justified before effectually called or to say A Believer works from Life and not for Life with those he counts Antinomians O Kratiste Theophile so I call the Rebuker now where is your Zeal for our Lord Jesus to be so favourable to the Socinians as to call it only an Error in them to deny our Lord Christ's Deity §. XX. I cannot but stand in admiration and can scarce believe my Eyes when I look on this Catalogue or Bed-roll of 21 Antinomian Heresies my Dear Kratiste hath loaded his Brethren with for dissenting from Mr. Williams his gospel-Gospel-Truth stated a-mis I hope it may not be unprofitable to my self and some others to spend a few Thoughts by searching what the Scriptures of Truth say about them for which I implore the Holy Spirit 's assistance that he would bring to remembrance the blessed Truths therein relating hereunto §. XXI The first is That a Gospel Threat if not a Katachresis is a Bull. This methinks is ridiculously called a Heresie to say a Gospel Threat is a Bull. What of Heresie can you make this But let us see what the Spirit saith concerning the Gospel what it is He saith by the Angel Behold I bring you glad Tidings a Saviour is born or I Gospelize this to you that Christ is born And what is it but a Bull or a Calf like a Bull to put a Threatning to Glad Tidings and call that Gospel One may as well say that Cursed is every one that continues not in all things written in the Law is Gospel as any other Threat But if Curses because written in the New Testament are the Gospel then our Neonomians have done their Business effectually and we have a new Thing a Curse for what they call Gospel besides the Lord Christ's Gospel which is that he Jesus is come to save his People from their Sins not but that the Threat is made use of in the hand of Christ in publishing the Gospel of Salvation by him but to say that the Threat is the Gospel is the same as to say that Condemnation is a Pardon which whether Bull or Calf matters not but to be sure it is very near to a Contradiction and my Dear Kratiste must strain hard to make the saying so to be an Antinomian Heresie But here he marshals it as the Captain-General of the 21 how formidable then must the following 20 be if this Man of Straw must lead the Van that 't is an Heresie to say a Gospel-Threat is a Bull. But leaving this Moon calf §. XXII His second Heresie is That Pardon is rather the Condition of Faith than Faith is of Pardon That is to say That Faith rather flows from Pardon than Pardon from Faith and for any to say so is with him an Antinomian Heresie which is a strange Strain for the Scripture saith We are justified freely by his Grace which Justification includes Pardon then we are Pardoned freely by his Grace not of Works lest any boast if so then we are not pardoned upon account of Faith as a Condition of it but upon account of Christ's Blood washing away our Sins which is called the Righteousness of God and this is received by Faith but Christ with this Righteousness of his first receives or apprehends us and then being apprehended by him we by his Spirit are enabled to apprehend him by Faith and so the Righteousness of God is revealed from Faith to Faith The Apostle doth not say the Righteousness of God wherein our Pardon is included that this is made ours by Faith or that Faith is the Condition of our having it but Faith is that whereto it is revealed to us It was given to us before when Christ first apprehended us but it is Revealed made manifest to
the Punishment of them but for the very Sin which deserved the Punishment Christ bare it not And so they would make God Unjust to punish him for Sin when the Sin was made none of his This is the Fruit of his denying the Change of Persons to make God Unrighteous to punish his Holy dearly Beloved Son without having our Sin made his by God's Imputation and his own voluntary Acceptation that poor Sinners might go free Once again let us try how the Scripture will run in Mr Williams's Language He was once offered to bear the Sins of many that is with Mr. Williams to bear their Sins but not their very Sins Again He shall save his People from their Sins but not from their very Sins He hath by himself purged our Sins ay saith Mr. Williams but not our very Sins He was manifested to take away our Sins but not our very Sins This is a bold Attempt to teach the Spirit of God to speak and all to cast Dirt on Dr. Crisp and Free Grace Preachers as Antinomians which in truth is casting Dirt and a wild monstrous Sense on what the Spirit of God speaks of God's making Christ to be Sin which they make not very Sin and so leave Sin to be borne by the Sinner But if one Glare of Sin should stare in its hideous hue in the Sinners View and Conscience O! what frightful work would it make If Sin on Christ made him in that Agony and cry out my Soul is exceedingly troubled what would it make a poor sinful Wretch do I never heard any Man set it out like Excellent Mr. Christopher Fowler O saith he if God should let one flash of Sin in its true Nature fly in the Face of a Sinner there would be such yelling screeking and roaring and tearing themselves that this great Room the Meeting-place by Three Cranes would not hold them they would make away themselves immediately if possible And yet Mr. Williams and the Socinians whom he follows will not grant that Christ bore our very Sins but hath left them on the Sinner and so David's Murder and Adultery must be upon David to all Eternity notwithstanding Christ's bearing the Punishment and Guâ—lt thereof and this though God hath said Their Sins and Iniquities I will remember no more their Sins shall be sought for and not be found O that this Socinian Divinity that our very Sins were not borne by Christ were cast by the great Angel into the bottomless Pit and chained up there the Thousand Years that it might deceive the Nations no more And in the mean time let all the maintainers of such Doctrine know that thereby they contradict the Spirit of God and will be found 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 §. LXII But it may be he means this to be Dr. Crisp's Monster his saying We are the same Righteousness for we are made the Righteousness of God I Answer To call this a monstrous Sense of Change of Persons is very strange for it is plain Scripture that we might be made the Righteousness of God 2 Cor. 5.21 And is there any difference between our being the same Righteousness of Christ and our being made the Righteousness of God Sure not any in an unprejudiced Mind §. LXIII But the Doctor said That very sinfulness which we were Christ is made that very sinfulness Answer If Christ was made Sin it was not his own Sin but our Sin And if made Sin it was very Sin And if made very Sin and our Sin then for him to say Christ was made the very sinfulness that we were is the same as to say he was made Sin Do but grant that God made Christ to be Sin when he laid on him the Iniquity of us all or you must deny plain Scripture and that on which our Salvation depends I say grant this and you grant all that the Doctor hath said in as much as to be made Sin is as much if not more than to be made Sinfulness §. LXIV The Doctor proceeds saying So that here is a direct Change Is this the wild Monster I am sure it had been an hideous Monster to say Christ was made Sin any otherwise than being made our Sin or our Sinfulness And if he was made our Sin then sure this is a direct Change But if you will not allow the Change then Christ was made his own Sin which is horrid Blasphemy And at whose door will the wild Monster lye now Therefore let me a poor Worm advise you to have a care of disallowing the Change of Persons between Christ and us when he was made Sin for us lest haply you be found not only a 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but a 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 not only a fighter against God but a murderer of our Lord Jesus Christ which I know my Dear Kratiste will be aware of and I will pray that his Friend Mr. Williams may escape from being so §. LXV But it may be he is gravel'd at this that follows in the Doctor Christ takes our Person and Condition and stands in our stead If he allows loco nostro how can this taking our Person and Condition confound him as uncouth novel and non-sense Whereas in our stead is brought in to explain what he means by taking our Person and Condition Most Men know what a Surety in a Bond of 1000 l. is he sustains the Person of the Debitor and is he not in his Condition when he lyes in Goal for him and payes his Debt for him If the Rebuker had felt the smart of that he might better understand this Christ's taking our Person and Condition than to call it unintelligible Nonsense When our Lord Jesus was sweating clodders of Blood in his Agony in the Garden and when nail'd to the Cross did he sweat Blood for himself and pour out his Soul in extream Anguish for himself or did he then sustain the Persons of the Elect Sinners Were they his own Sins or the Sins of the Elect that he cryed out of My Sins are more than the Hairs of my Head Psal 40. Surely not his own but the Sins of those given him of the Father from all Eternity whose Persons he sustained or stood in the place of which is all one and so accounted before my Dear Kratiste could handle a Pen by Men of great Integrity and Sense §. LXVI Well but what shall we think of this part of the Monster We take Christ's Person and Condition and stand in his stead I hope it is no Monster to say Thou art all fair my Love there is no spot in thee as our Lord Jesus saith of his Spouse who was fair through his Comeliness put on her Ezek. 16.14 though she in the sense of her Sins said of her self Look not on me because I am Black Did not she appear as in the Person of Christ cloathed with his Righteousness Nay was she not joyned to him when thus all fair and so being joyned to the Lord became one
Penalty of Sin may be inflicted there 's a necessity that the Guilt of Sin be imputed Now to talk of Guilt imputed and not the Fault is Nonsense For what Guilt is there where there is no Fault Did Christ bare Sin and Guilt without Fault Then he bare faultless Sin and faultless Guilt which is ridiculous Well but my Dear Kratiste goes on currently for his Antinomians and saith It 's impossible indeed that we should personally have committed Adam 's Sin or performed that very Obedience which Christ performed but not impossible that the Disobedience of the one or Obedience of the other should be reckoned AS committed and performed by us How doth this agree with his equal Astonishment and Indignation at the horrid Opinion to say That the Fault of Sin was laid upon Christ O! that he would humbly own his hasty heat O! that he might recover himself and return to the Truths he owned in Antisozzo and not call it an horrid Opinion That the Fault was laid on Christ when himself owns the Guilt was lest he exasperate his tart Answerers to call him not only an Ecclesiastical Droll but a Terrae Filius Droll to talk of Guilt without Fault This might possibly occasion that severe Reflection of Fits in the Rebuker not fit to be mentioned but meliora speramus we hope better Things and such as accompany Salvation by his freeing himself from halting in the Point of Christ's Satisfaction which the Reporter chargeth him with §. CIX I proceed to convince if it may please God my Dear Kratiste of his unbenign Temper in his treating the Opposers of Mr. Williams in Pa. 60. O! how unlike are those Passages to any thing we find of our beloved Lord and Master Jesus the meek and lowly who had no Guile in his Mouth and who being reviled reviled not again But so it fares not with the Rebuker who though he was not reviled in the Report yet he Banters and Jeers his Friends that concur not with him in Page 60 with this Expression speaking of his Opposers he saith of them They will make no farther Contest with Mr. Williams I mistake saith the Rebuker but private Whisperings and evil Surmizes and insinuated Slanders and clandestine Reproaches may be multiplyed while Mr. Williams lives O what a dire Charge is here in this climax and constellation of Accusations Here are Whisperings Surmises Slanders and Reproaches and these epethited with being private evil insinuated and clandestine Nay 't is to be feared they will feed upon his Carcase See here what Cannibals he makes all the Gospel-Ministers that cannot that ought not to concur with Mr. Williams his unsound stating of Gospel-Truth May not Men write and plead for the Truth which it is obvious Mr. Williams hath wronged as on that Text Phil. 3.9 but they must be invidiously loaded as above O my Dear Kratiste I beseech the Lord to mollifie your Temper and to give you an humble broken Gospel-Sense of your too much giving way through the Temptation of the Floridness of your Stile to an excess of Carnal Passion in your Rebuke Doth not the blessed Apostle tell us in 2 Tim. 4.2 that his beloved Timothy though but a Young Divine that he should rebuke with all long-suffering How much more is it a Duty for the Elder Divines to exercise long suffering yea all long-suffering in their Rebukes cujus contrarium we see Some talk of having a Commission from all the Systematical Divines as Antisozzo had but I fear you have exceeded that as well as the Apostle's Admonition in your Rebuke to the Report §. CX Are all accounted by the Rebuker as Cannibals that write against Mr. Williams How then shall I escape who put my Mite into the Treasury of pleading for Free Grace Every one hath not a Face of Brass neither doth God say to all Contenders for the Truth as he did to Ezekiel in Ezek. 3.9 As an Adamant harder than a Flint have I made thy Forehead therefore fear them not and must we not therefore plead for Truth for fear of being called Man-Eaters I hope my Dear Kratiste will remember what Antisozzo saith in his Preface That Austin would have every Man that can hold a Pen write against Pelagius that sworn Enemy to free discriminating effectual Grace And if so why may not the Reporter or any Pen-Man write against Mr. Williams and all those Forty Nine Vouchers who declares That a degree of our Gospel-Obedience to a Law that admits Sin doth concur to our Justification quite contrary to the Scripture which saith We are justified freely by his Grace through the Redemption that is in Jesus Are we bound to contend earnestly for the Faith and will you load with multiplyed Sarcasms those that cannot swallow such distastful Morsels as he cuts out Such as this That our being found in Christ Phil. 3.9 is principally meant of being found in our own Gospel-Holiness Than which nothing is a greater misprision of Treason against the Righteousness of Christ imputed to Sinners for their Justification O! that God would shew that such prophane words do eat as doth a Gangreen What bring in our Holiness to sit jigg by joul with Christ's perfect Righteousness And for opposing this shall the Servants of the Lord be accounted Cannibals to feed on Mr. Williams his Flesh §. CXI The next hard word bestowed on Free-Grace maintainers is calling them Bigots nay Bigots that never will forgive That is because they do and must contend for the Truth therefore they are accounted implacable Though I am bound to forgive all Injuries done to my self am I ever bound to suffer the Truth to be invaded and silently to sit down satisfied with it Was not meek Moses in a Transport when Aaron made the Calf yet not implacable Must many whole Churches of our Lord Jesus be called unforgiving Bigots for holding fast the Faith once delivered to the Saints Is not the Spirit to war against Fleshly Principles as long as they war against the Spirit O! that my Dear Kratiste might obtain to descend from his lofty strain and follow our dear Lord who dyed for us leaving us an Example that we should follow his steps in being meek and lowly of Heart and not fly into Astonishment and Indignation for being mildly opposed §. CXII O! how unlike is this treatment of this Rebuker to the treatment our blessed Lord Jesus gave to his Disciples when instead of watching with him when he was under the dreadful conflict in his Agony and instead of praying with him they fell a snoring Did he scour them off as our Rebuker has done No he sweetly gently mildly reproves them with an Excuse The Spirit is willing but the Flesh is weak Nay when they call'd for Fire from Heaven on the Samaritans doth he call them wild Monsters as our Rebuker No but tenderly reproves them Ye know not what Spirit ye are of He doth not cast Fire-brands Arrows and Death at them calling them horrid
Hereticks that fill with equal Astonishment and Indignation as of late we see in the froth of my Dear Kratiste §. CXIII I now must write in Tears this next Paragraph and O that my Head were Waters and mine Eyes a Fountain of Tears over my Dear Kratiste to see that a Good Man and Eminent should be guilty of the following Passage which I fear hath been tragical and bloody O what is poor Man when the Lord leaves him to the exercise of his meer Wit and Reason The Rebuker turns quick and plays at sharp with the Manuscriptor and accosts him for saying What a Negative of the same import with an Affirmative Whereby the Manuscriptor reflected on Mr. Williams for his former asserting no Change of Persons between Christ and Believers and saying afterwards that he meant this No Change doth allow that he was for a Change on which the Manuscriptor saith What a Negative of the same import with an Affirmative Upon which the Rebuker lets fly and fastens his Talons on him with this Answer I make no question but he had heard of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 and 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a Marriage and no Marriage grating on his tender Conscience Here we must take the word tender to be Ironically spoken by the Rebuker O! how can he look on this Passage without blushing and a few Tears if the Lord graciously give a due Sense of the Uncharitableness of it when he sees the direful Consequence of it the Lord 's taking the blessed holy Servant of his this object of your boasting over a repented of miscarriage from this World to himself And who knows but such a Reflection as this of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 might hasten his Death to be wounded so in the House of his Friends by a Brother in the Presbyterian Ministry If the Righteous fall seven times a day how can you look God in the Face with Peace while you insult in 〈…〉 â—ner over one you cannot but own God had raised up aâ—â—er his â—ail and raised to a higher pitch of Zeal for the Glory of God and for the publishing his Free Grace in the Gospel through our Lord Jesus Christ Is such a Retort like the moving of the Spirit of God in a Christian who should in love gentleness and meekness do every Thing especially when writing a Tract relating to the great and glorious Truths of the Gospel to the Glory of God in the Name of the Lord Jesus Was this in the Name of Jesus who when reviled reviled not again to criminate a Servant of the Lord Jesus in the Ministry of the Gospel We have heard of a Cham that discovered what he should have concealed and of the Brand yea black Curse that is upon all his Seed to this day if the black Ethiopians be his Seed as is most probable O blessed Lord let not the like be on the Seed of my Kratiste The Apostle tells us Ye have heard of the Patience of Job but draws a Vail over his Passion and saith farther upon it and the end of the Lord that the Lord is very pitiful and of tender Mercy O that the Rebuker were like him But the tender Mercies of some are cruel What would and it may be thereby kill a Man whom God had both wounded and healed The Lord give a due sense and forgive §. CXIV Again We have heard of the mocking of Ishmael Gen. 21. of which the Apostle saith He that was born after the Flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit Gal. 4. So that in God's sight a mocking fleering jibing taunting Spirit though done with the smartest Wit is accounted Persecution and if it be to those born after the Spirit it may issue in great Judgment The Dragon was cast into a bottomless Pit that cast water out of his Mouth to swallow the Woman Rev. 12. 20.3 I beseech the Lord that such mocking may not be laid to the Charge of the Rebuker in the great day of the Lord when he cometh to convince not only the ungodly of their ungodly Deeds but of their hard Speeches O that he might lay it to his own Soul now that it may not be laid to his Charge then God hath taken this aspersed Servant from the malevolent Aspersion of Man and I hope the Blood of Jesus applyed to by Faith with Repentance may prevent this Man's Blood from crying for Vengeance Which I pray his Adversaries may flee for to the hope set before them and that they take heed how they secretly Joab like stab by vituperation any of the Servants of the Lord for the time to come O! how ill might it look if any should return a worse Reflection than 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 on some that lift up their Heads very high being held up by the Chin by mighty swimmers But the Lord rebuke their uncharitable Spirit is the best return I can make §. CXV I am amazed or as in a Dream to see the prevaricating of the Rebuker in Page 61 where speaking of Mr. Williams's Gospel-Truth stated c. he saith Reader thou hast heard much noise about that Book and of the Subscription to it by some Ministers I could wish thou wouldst be so just to the Subscribers as to view with thine own Eyes how far the Subscription extended It was no more than this They judged that he had in all that was material fully and rightly stated the Truths and Errors therein mentioned I viewed this over and over never suspecting a plain untruth in the Rebuker but took it for granted that this was all that he had subscribed to That he judged that Mr. Williams had in all that was material done as there is declared But being provoked to be just to him and see with my own Eyes I turned to the Subscription and to my amazement found the old saying useful 'T is good to tell Money after ones Father for he fell far short of saying the Truth and the whole Truth of the Subscription for it extended far beyond what he saith it extended to For there to set off the Book he stiles Mr. Williams our Reverend Brother and such a Character to the Book is no small extolling it that he is by Forty Nine Divines called our Reverend Brother whereof my Dear Kratiste is one of the first three But looking forward with mine own Eyes I found he went ten times farther in celebrating the excellency of that Piece which made such a Noise a Noise that hath sounded into the Low Countries to indamage the Truth as I have heard and that is this We do account say the Forty Nine that he hath done considerable Service to the Church of Christ And what could they say more of Calvin Melancthon Luther Nay very little more of St. Paul's Epistles I wish they said as much of some passages therein Christ made Sin and made a Curse §.
