righteousness_n which_o god_n do_v accept_v and_o have_v appoint_v for_o our_o justification_n or_o it_o be_v call_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n because_o it_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v god-man_n no_o other_o righteousness_n than_o of_o such_o a_o person_n be_v sufficient_a for_o man_n in_o his_o fall_a estate_n i_o say_v through_o the_o ignorance_n of_o this_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n many_o christian_n seek_v after_o a_o righteousness_n in_o order_n to_o their_o salvation_n they_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v their_o own_o righteousness_n that_o be_v a_o personal_a righteousness_n and_o endeavour_v the_o gain_n of_o heaven_n in_o a_o way_n of_o do_v and_o so_o do_v not_o submit_v themselves_o to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n it_o be_v through_o pride_n so_o natural_a unto_o every_o one_o that_o they_o be_v loath_a to_o be_v behold_v whole_o unto_o another_o and_o therefore_o they_o will_v have_v something_o of_o their_o own_o to_o commend_v they_o unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o submit_v unto_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o god_n have_v provide_v for_o they_o therefore_o you_o must_v labour_v to_o be_v clear_a in_o your_o understanding_n what_o this_o righreousness_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o be_v two_o thing_n requisite_a and_o absolute_o necessary_a unto_o fall_v man_n the_o first_o be_v satisfaction_n unto_o god_n justice_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o without_o this_o there_o can_v be_v no_o escape_n of_o eternal_a death_n and_o misery_n because_o guilt_n do_v oblige_v unto_o punishment_n
