god_n ordain_v and_o christ_n procure_n and_o by_o faith_n be_v make_v we_o which_o be_v gospel_n righteousness_n and_o this_o righteousness_n we_o have_v before_o describe_v 3._o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o three_o thing_n i_o propound_v to_o inquire_v into_o namely_o how_o any_o come_v to_o partake_v of_o this_o great_a mercy_n and_o benefit_n viz._n justification_n before_o god_n i_o answer_v this_o be_v obtain_v by_o perform_v the_o condition_n the_o gospel_n require_v which_o be_v faith_n in_o christ_n the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v in_o the_o proposal_n of_o it_o

and_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v we_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n to_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o the_o gospel_n be_v style_v the_o law_n of_o faith_n and_o whatsoever_o be_v require_v of_o we_o by_o it_o be_v call_v the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n 1._o it_o be_v not_o a_o bare_a assent_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n or_o to_o the_o revelation_n or_o history_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o faith_n that_o the_o scripture_n call_v a_o justify_v faith_n be_v a_o operative_a work_a faith_n a_o faith_n that_o include_v in_o its_o nature_n a_o suitable_a act_n and_o obedience_n this_o faith_n be_v never_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o scripture_n as_o a_o bare_a believe_v and_o assent_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o opposition_n to_o act_v agreeable_o thereunto_o but_o as_o the_o grand_a principle_n of_o action_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o since_o abel_n time_n the_o spring_n of_o all_o religious_a action_n have_v be_v faith_n viz._n believe_v god_n and_o his_o promise_n and_o threaten_n the_o bare_a believe_v the_o truth_n of_o christianity_n or_o the_o bare_a profess_v of_o it_o without_o answerable_a walk_n and_o suitable_a obedience_n be_v not_o enough_o to_o save_v any_o man_n and_o therefore_o to_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n be_v to_o be_v a_o sincere_a practical_a christian_a the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o that_o do_v righteousness_n be_v righteous_a and_o not_o he_o that_o reckon_v himself_o so_o without_o righteous_a act_n upon_o the_o mere_a score_n of_o his_o believe_a or_o bare_a profession_n when_o paul_n say_v abraham_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o work_n we_o must_v suppose_v he_o to_o mean_v either_o such_o perfect_a sinless_a work_n as_o will_v in_o strict_a rule_n of_o justice_n make_v the_o reward_n to_o be_v a_o debt_n and_o such_o work_v abraham_n have_v not_o or_o el_fw-es e_fw-es such_fw-mi work_v as_o be_v depend_v on_o by_o the_o carnal_a jew_n as_o sufficient_a to_o procure_v their_o pardon_n and_o acceptance_n with_o god_n by_o their_o own_o inward_a work_n and_o merit_n these_o he_o disclaim_v and_o when_o he_o oppose_v work_n to_o grace_n he_o mean_v such_o work_n as_o be_v suppose_v to_o justify_v by_o their_o own_o merit_n and_o which_o put_v we_o out_o of_o need_n of_o grace_n but_o he_o know_v that_o justification_n be_v not_o now_o so_o attainable_a but_o by_o faith_n yet_o not_o by_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o be_v not_o accompany_v with_o good_a work_n as_o st._n james_n prove_v for_o by_o work_n say_v he_o faith_n be_v make_v perfect_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v true_a save_a faith_n comprise_v obedience_n in_o it_o and_o be_v not_o complete_a and_o perfect_a without_o it_o nor_o such_o a_o faith_n as_o in_o scripture_n be_v account_v for_o righteousness_n now_o abraham_n faith_n the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o be_v account_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n but_o it_o be_v so_o account_v with_o reference_n to_o that_o obedience_n that_o be_v virtual_o comprise_v in_o it_o and_o natural_o flow_v from_o it_o and_o that_o his_o faith_n comprise_v in_o it_o a_o suitable_a obedience_n be_v manifest_a else_o it_o will_v have_v be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v esteem_v or_o account_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n that_o it_o will_v rather_o have_v be_v account_v to_o he_o for_o hypocrisy_n it_o be_v true_a abraham_n can_v not_o pretend_v to_o a_o sinless_a perfection_n he_o have_v no_o such_o work_n to_o plead_v as_o be_v god_n justice-proof_n he_o have_v no_o such_o righteousness_n as_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n and_o by_o its_o own_o intrinsic_a worth_n can_v justify_v he_o and_o denominate_v he_o a_o perfect_a righteous_a man_n have_v it_o be_v so_o it_o need_v not_o any_o favour_n to_o have_v be_v account_v for_o righteousness_n but_o god_n be_v please_v out_o of_o his_o free_a grace_n and_o favour_n so_o to_o reckon_v and_o account_v of_o it_o abraham_n faith_n therefore_o be_v a_o believe_v the_o revelation_n of_o the_o messi●h_n to_o come_v and_o of_o pardon_n and_o salvation_n obtainable_a by_o he_o and_o act_v suitable_o thereunto_o by_o a_o sincere_a though_o imperfect_a obedience_n this_o god_n do_v impute_v and_o account_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n therefore_o paul_n never_o intend_v to_o exclude_v gospel_n work_n or_o such_o a_o sincere_a obedience_n as_o be_v natural_o consequent_a to_o a_o true_a and_o save_a faith_n and_o which_o be_v accept_v of_o mere_a grace_n and_o can_v pretend_v to_o any_o merit_n but_o he_o speak_v against_o such_o work_n as_o be_v depend_v on_o and_o by_o virtue_n of_o which_o man_n pretend_v to_o claim_v justification_n as_o a_o reward_n just_o due_a to_o they_o in_o opposition_n to_o free_a grace_n now_o this_o gospel_n justification_n we_o have_v describe_v be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v such_o a_o justification_n by_o work_n as_o the_o jew_n seek_v after_o and_o st._n paul_n dispute_v against_o that_o it_o be_v a_o justification_n that_o result_v whole_o from_o grace_n and_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o christ_n purchase_n and_o of_o another_o covenant_n and_o all_o merit_n and_o reward_n that_o can_v be_v claim_v as_o a_o debt_n be_v utter_o exclude_v thereby_o abraham_n be_v not_o justify_v upon_o the_o term_n of_o the_o law_n viz._n sinless_a perfection_n but_o he_o be_v justify_v as_o one_o that_o have_v sin_n and_o fail_n about_o he_o which_o need_v forgiveness_n and_o so_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o gospel-way_n but_o it_o be_v by_o a_o operative_a faith_n which_o be_v productive_a of_o good_a work_n which_o work_n be_v not_o such_o as_o by_o any_o innate_a virtue_n in_o themselves_o do_v constitute_v he_o just_a but_o be_v the_o fruit_n and_o genuine_a offspring_n of_o his_o faith_n which_o rest_v on_o the_o promise_a messiah_n as_o the_o sole_a procurer_n of_o his_o pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n sinless_a work_n therefore_o we_o see_v be_v necessary_a under_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n to_o obtain_v the_o reward_n as_o a_o just_a debt_n but_o sincere_a work_n be_v necessary_a under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n as_o the_o genuine_a fruit_n of_o faith_n without_o which_o it_o be_v imperfect_a for_o if_o it_o be_v without_o work_n it_o be_v not_o true_a justify_v faith_n as_o the_o apostle_n james_n abundant_o prove_v 2._o we_o must_v take_v heed_n we_o do_v not_o so_o apprehend_v of_o faith_n as_o if_o it_o have_v in_o itself_o any_o justify_v virtue_n or_o be_v of_o any_o innate_a worth_n to_o acquit_v we_o before_o god_n from_o the_o guilt_n of_o our_o sin_n the_o value_n of_o it_o be_v whole_o from_o god_n ordination_n and_o its_o relation_n to_o christ_n we_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n alone_o meritorious_o and_o by_o what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v faith_n be_v but_o a_o conditional_a mean_n by_o which_o we_o come_v to_o reap_v the_o fruit_n and_o benefit_n of_o christ_n merit_n i'faith_o therefore_o

the_o account_n of_o satisfaction_n give_v and_o accept_v on_o our_o behalf_n and_o though_o justification_n principal_o consist_v in_o our_o pardon_n and_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n yet_o

we_o consider_v the_o procure_a cause_n of_o our_o pardon_n and_o justification_n the_o procure_a cause_n of_o it_o be_v the_o satisfaction_n make_v to_o divine_a justice_n by_o the_o active_a and_o passive_a obedience_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o we_o may_v understand_v this_o the_o more_o clear_o let_v we_o take_v into_o our_o consideration_n these_o particular_n 1._o the_o law_n or_o covenant_n of_o work_n require_v of_o our_o first_o parent_n perfect_a and_o sinless_a obedience_n upon_o pain_n of_o death_n but_o they_o transgress_v fall_v under_o the_o curse_n and_o

covenant_n of_o grace_n no_o son_n of_o fall_v adam_n can_v be_v justify_v with_o the_o justification_n of_o a_o innocent_a person_n or_o as_o one_o perfect_o and_o inherent_o righteous_a for_o such_o person_n if_o they_o shall_v be_v challenge_v be_v justify_v because_o they_o be_v find_v without_o fault_n or_o blame_n and_o their_o justification_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o declaration_n of_o their_o righteousness_n and_o innocence_n but_o by_o this_o covenant_n of_o grace_n we_o must_v be_v justify_v as_o sinner_n and_o offender_n upon_o a_o satisfaction_n make_v to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n for_o our_o sin_n for_o offender_n can_v no_o other_o way_n be_v bring_v into_o the_o state_n of_o just_a man_n but_o upon_o a_o legal_a pardon_n and_o discharge_v and_o so_o we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v when_o the_o compensation_n or_o satisfaction_n make_v for_o we_o be_v accept_v and_o we_o thereupon_o be_v legal_o pardon_v &_o discharge_v 3._o this_o compensation_n or_o satisfaction_n make_v to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n in_o our_o behalf_n be_v make_v by_o the_o active_a and_o passive_a obedience_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o whole_a of_o our_o justification_n be_v found_v thereon_o i_o say_v the_o active_a as_o well_o as_o the_o passive_a obedience_n of_o christ_n be_v here_o to_o be_v reckon_v as_o concur_v hereunto_o for_o though_o christ_n when_o he_o have_v once_o assume_v our_o nature_n and_o be_v make_v man_n be_v bind_v to_o obey_v the_o law_n yet_o in_o that_o he_o voluntary_o come_v from_o heaven_n and_o voluntary_o take_v our_o nature_n and_o so_o
