half_n a_o sheet_n of_o mr_n humfrey_n in_o pursuance_n of_o pacification_n there_o be_v a_o book_n of_o mr_n williams_n call_v gospel_n truth_n state_v from_o whence_o occasion_n have_v be_v take_v for_o division_n it_o be_v a_o good_a book_n a_o useful_a book_n especial_o for_o young_a minister_n and_o such_o of_o the_o people_n who_o be_v a_o little_a learned_a or_o bookish_a turn_v disputative_a to_o save_v they_o from_o error_n i_o do_v therefore_o thank_v he_o for_o it_o and_o especial_o for_o what_o he_o have_v say_v on_o phil._n 3._o and_o that_o he_o have_v abide_v by_o it_o it_o be_v what_o i_o say_v in_o my_o sheet_n of_o justification_n in_o the_o first_o edition_n so_o many_o year_n ago_o and_o sir_n charles_n wolesley_n after_o i_o i_o have_v read_v his_o book_n over_o and_o over_o and_o consider_v the_o multitude_n of_o matter_n with_o common_a allowance_n to_o human_a frailty_n i_o can_v find_v few_o fault_n in_o comparison_n and_o shall_v have_v find_v none_o have_v i_o not_o already_o unless_o this_o be_v one_o that_o he_o have_v get_v so_o many_o hand_n to_o it_o or_o which_o be_v worse_o that_o when_o his_o book_n be_v sufficient_a for_o its_o own_o defence_n he_o shall_v upon_o the_o write_n of_o one_o against_o it_o go_v to_o vindicate_v it_o if_o he_o have_v not_o write_v again_o he_o have_v then_o overcome_v but_o be_v overcome_v now_o if_o he_o do_v in_o this_o book_n there_o be_v two_o expression_n which_o the_o brethren_n will_v have_v he_o retract_v one_o be_v there_o be_v not_o a_o change_n of_o person_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o elect._n the_o other_o be_v the_o father_n be_v never_o displease_v with_o christ_n i_o will_v humble_o motion_n here_o a_o draw_v battle_n or_o mutual_a condescension_n that_o be_v for_o mr_n williams_n to_o withdraw_v one_o of_o these_o passage_n they_o except_v against_o and_o for_o the_o brethren_n to_o withdraw_v the_o other_o exception_n as_o for_o the_o first_o passage_n whatsoever_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v by_o commutation_n of_o person_n the_o brethren_n understand_v thus_o much_o that_o christ_n put_v on_o the_o person_n of_o sinner_n for_o these_o be_v their_o word_n now_o mr_n williams_n i_o suppose_v deny_v this_o and_o they_o will_v have_v he_o retract_v his_o denial_n by_o person_n therefore_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v signify_v the_o person_n of_o the_o sinner_n himself_o suppositum_fw-la rationale_fw-la or_o the_o quality_n or_o condition_n of_o a_o sinner_n as_o when_o a_o man_n act_v a_o drunkard_n on_o the_o stage_n he_o personate_v drunkenness_n if_o a_o king_n he_o personate_v majesty_n christ_n god-man_n stand_v in_o the_o room_n of_o we_o sinner_n in_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o quatenus_fw-la he_o and_o we_o be_v supposita_fw-la rationalia_fw-la and_o in_o this_o first_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n mr_n williams_n allow_v a_o commutation_n of_o person_n so_o as_o when_o the_o suffer_a be_v christ_n the_o benefit_n be_v we_o which_o be_v that_o grotius_n intend_v only_o against_o the_o socinian_o but_o mr_n williams_n deny_v that_o christ_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o quality_n or_o condition_n of_o sinner_n that_o be_v in_o the_o second_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n he_o deny_v what_o they_o affirm_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o put_v on_o the_o person_n of_o sinner_n christ_n do_v not_o represent_v or_o act_v the_o part_n of_o sinner_n nor_o be_v look_v on_o by_o god_n as_o a_o sinner_n when_o our_o surety_n a_o commutatio_fw-la hominum_fw-la there_o be_v no_o commutatio_fw-la actionum_fw-la he_o represent_v we_o that_o be_v sinner_n he_o represent_v not_o the_o sinner_n a_o sinner_n be_v one_o that_o break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n do_v not_o so_o he_o act_v no_o such_o part_n and_o god_n never_o account_v that_o he_o do_v and_o there_o be_v therefore_o no_o change_n of_o he_o of_o the_o distinction_n of_o these_o term_n be_v not_o make_v ordinary_o by_o divine_n which_o excuse_v the_o brethren_n citation_n of_o one_o for_o the_o other_o but_o i_o use_v it_o as_o peculiar_a for_o explain_v mr_n williams_n sense_n if_o any_o shall_v still_o choose_v to_o confound_v they_o and_o express_v our_o sense_n otherwise_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o i_o and_o may_v be_v to_o he_o person_n though_o a_o change_n of_o person_n according_a to_o mr._n williams_n when_o in_o this_o sense_n therefore_o of_o the_o word_n person_n he_o be_v in_o the_o right_n let_v we_o consider_v further_o as_o to_o the_o other_o sense_n of_o it_o as_o it_o signify_v our_o human_a nature_n not_o our_o sinful_a nature_n or_o sinful_a quality_n that_o though_o christ_n do_v sustain_v our_o person_n give_v the_o brethren_n liberty_n of_o such_o word_n as_o to_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v in_o our_o stead_n yet_o be_v there_o nothing_o wherein_o we_o reciprocal_o sustain_v his_o person_n as_o he_o do_v we_o nothing_o that_o we_o be_v to_o be_v say_v or_o account_v to_o have_v do_v what_o he_o do_v and_o therefore_o do_v i_o in_o my_o late_a book_n pacification_n say_v that_o here_o be_v only_o a_o change_n of_o person_n but_o not_o of_o person_n a_o strange_a thing_n real_o that_o when_o the_o same_o sense_n be_v intend_v by_o i_o and_o mr_n williams_n the_o same_o distinction_n use_v and_o both_o say_v true_a yet_o the_o term_n of_o that_o distinction_n be_v contrary_o apply_v by_o we_o i_o must_v desire_v mr_n williams_n therefore_o to_o consider_v whether_o his_o use_n of_o the_o word_n person_n be_v not_o mediator_n not_o as_o they_o speak_v of_o christ_n judicial_o sustain_v our_o person_n for_o in_o this_o second_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n person_n or_o mr_n williams_n sense_n christ_n act_v no_o person_n but_o the_o person_n of_o a_o mediator_n foreign_a to_o our_o divine_n and_o it_o be_v not_o better_a to_o put_v what_o he_o mean_v in_o such_o term_n as_o be_v easy_a of_o reception_n and_o that_o may_v be_v only_o by_o distinguish_v of_o christ_n take_v on_o he_o our_o person_n or_o bear_v our_o sin_n in_o regard_n to_o the_o fault_n or_o the_o punishment_n and_o to_o say_v he_o sustain_v not_o our_o person_n or_o take_v on_o he_o our_o sin_n quoad_fw-la reatum_fw-la culpae_fw-la in_o these_o know_a word_n so_o as_o to_o be_v account_v of_o god_n a_o sinner_n but_o quoad_fw-la reatum_fw-la poenae_fw-la propter_fw-la culpam_fw-la nostram_fw-la so_o only_o as_o voluntary_o oblige_v to_o our_o punishment_n here_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o sense_n and_o if_o so_o good_a a_o end_n as_o reunion_n may_v be_v obtain_v by_o it_o he_o may_v understand_v with_o i_o retract_v the_o word_n in_o his_o book_n there_o be_v not_o a_o change_n of_o person_n and_o grant_v a_o change_n of_o person_n so_o long_o as_o he_o maintain_v still_o with_o i_o no_o change_n of_o person_n for_o his_o business_n be_v do_v thereby_o as_o well_o as_o by_o his_o stick_v to_o a_o word_n the_o lord_n jesus_n in_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o sustain_v our_o person_n i_o give_v way_n to_o such_o phrase_n for_o peace_n insomuch_o as_o we_o still_o say_v that_o what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o be_v account_v by_o god_n as_o do_v and_o suffer_v in_o our_o room_n that_o we_o may_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o but_o not_o account_v by_o he_o as_o if_o we_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v in_o christ_n person_n what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o so_o in_o that_o respect_n be_v there_o a_o change_n of_o person_n but_o not_o of_o person_n whereby_o i_o mean_v plain_o not_o
