truth_n of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v almost_o six_o thousand_o year_n since_o adam_n sin_v and_o we_o who_o be_v at_o this_o vast_a distance_n of_o time_n from_o he_o be_v as_o real_o and_o true_o guilty_a of_o his_o sin_n as_o if_o we_o ourselves_o have_v all_o be_v alive_a when_o he_o live_v and_o have_v actual_o sin_v with_o he_o in_o our_o own_o person_n for_o say_v st._n paul_n rom._n v._n 12_o 19_o all_o man_n have_v sin_v in_o adam_n and_o by_o adam_n disobedience_n all_o man_n be_v make_v sinner_n and_o if_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n who_o be_v only_o a_o mere_a man_n be_v real_o and_o true_o our_o sin_n though_o we_o live_v so_o long_a a_o time_n after_o he_o then_o shall_v not_o the_o crucifixion_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n be_v real_o and_o true_o our_o crucifixion_n when_o it_o be_v but_o so_o short_a a_o time_n in_o comparison_n to_o adam_n sin_v since_o christ_n be_v crucify_a for_o be_v not_o christ_n more_o able_a to_o save_v all_o the_o elect_n who_o be_v only_o a_o few_o than_o adam_n be_v to_o destroy_v all_o mankind_n who_o be_v so_o many_o yea_o very_o for_o as_o the_o apostle_n prove_v it_o at_o large_a the_o mischief_n we_o receive_v from_o adam_n transgression_n be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o the_o benefit_n we_o receive_v from_o christ_n crucifixion_n for_o say_v st._n paul_n rom._n v._n 15._o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n have_v much_o more_o abound_v than_o the_o offence_n of_o adam_n and_o he_o give_v the_o reason_n for_o it_o v_o 16._o for_o say_v he_o the_o judgement_n be_v by_o one_o to_o condemnation_n but_o the_o free_a gift_n be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n that_o be_v the_o offence_n of_o adam_n only_o make_v man_n guilty_a of_o original_a sin_n but_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o only_o pardon_v original_a sin_n but_o it_o also_o pardon_v all_o the_o personal_a and_o actual_a sin_n of_o all_o his_o people_n and_o therefore_o since_o we_o have_v certain_o sin_v with_o adam_n in_o paradise_n before_o we_o be_v bear_v let_v none_o of_o we_o if_o we_o be_v true_a christian_n make_v the_o least_o doubt_n but_o that_o we_o be_v also_o as_o certain_o crucify_a with_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n before_o we_o be_v born_n and_o now_o have_v thus_o acquaint_v you_o with_o these_o three_o thing_n the_o meaning_n of_o the_o text_n which_o can_v otherwise_o have_v never_o be_v understand_v will_v be_v plain_a and_o easy_a to_o the_o most_o ignorant_a man_n and_o woman_n here_o present_a for_o when_o st._n paul_n here_o say_v i_o be_o crucify_v with_o christ_n he_o tell_v we_o what_o he_o mean_v by_o it_o rom._n vi_fw-la 6._o where_o he_o say_v that_o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o corrupt_a self_n or_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v common_o call_v original_a sin_n be_v crucify_a and_o mortify_v and_o put_v to_o death_n in_o every_o believer_n by_o the_o crucifixion_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o condemn_a power_n of_o original_a sin_n have_v be_v long_o since_o whole_o take_v away_o from_o we_o in_o our_o justification_n by_o which_o we_o be_v acquit_v from_o its_o gild_n and_o punishment_n the_o reign_a power_n of_o original_a sin_n have_v be_v already_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o be_v every_o day_n more_o and_o more_o take_v away_o from_o we_o in_o our_o sanctification_n by_o which_o we_o constant_o and_o manful_o fight_v against_o it_o and_o weaken_v and_o lessen_v its_o dominion_n and_o the_o very_o be_v of_o original_a sin_n shall_v be_v whole_o take_v away_o from_o we_o in_o our_o glorification_n in_o heaven_n where_o we_o shall_v all_o be_v one_o glorious_a church_n not_o have_v spot_n or_o wrinkle_n but_o altogether_o holy_a and_o without_o blemish_n and_o now_o you_o know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o these_o word_n i_o be_o crucify_v with_o christ_n you_o will_v easy_o know_v the_o meaning_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n for_o when_o st._n paul_n say_v nevertheless_o i_o live_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v this_o do_v not_o think_v that_o i_o contradict_v myself_o by_o say_v i_o be_o crucify_v and_o yet_o i_o live_v for_o as_o i_o according_a to_o my_o corrupt_a self_n be_o crucify_a and_o dead_a unto_o sin_n so_o i_o according_a to_o my_o renew_a self_n be_o alive_a unto_o righteousness_n and_o live_v unto_o god_n my_o old_a man_n be_v daily_o

great_a extoller_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n shall_v seem_v to_o have_v take_v too_o much_o to_o himself_o when_o he_o say_v nevertheless_o i_o live_v he_o present_o do_v as_o it_o be_v correct_v himself_o by_o say_v in_o the_o next_o word_n yet_o not_o i_o but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o and_o the_o life_n which_o i_o now_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n i_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o the_o meaning_n of_o which_o be_v this_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n never_o justify_v a_o man_n and_o aquit_v he_o from_o the_o guilt_n and_o punishment_n of_o his_o sin_n but_o he_o do_v also_o at_o the_o same_o time_n sanctify_v he_o and_o give_v he_o inherent_a righteousness_n and_o put_v into_o he_o a_o new_a principle_n of_o action_n but_o this_o new_a principle_n of_o action_n be_v not_o so_o strong_a and_o powerful_a as_o of_o its_o self_n to_o make_v a_o believer_n do_v all_o his_o duty_n without_o any_o further_a assistance_n from_o christ_n this_o inherent_a righteousness_n do_v not_o can_v carry_v a_o believer_n through_o all_o or_o indeed_o through_o any_o christian_a duty_n unless_o christ_n give_v he_o both_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n unless_o he_o excite_v he_o to_o enable_v he_o for_o and_o make_v he_o to_o persevere_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o every_o one_o of_o they_o and_o therefore_o notwithstanding_o this_o new_a principle_n and_o this_o inherent_a righteousness_n which_o every_o believer_n have_v yet_o there_o be_v not_o one_o spiritual_a action_n that_o any_o believer_n do_v or_o can_v do_v but_o christ_n do_v more_o in_o it_o than_o the_o believer_n himself_o do_v christ_n live_v more_o in_o a_o believer_n than_o a_o believer_n live_v himself_o for_o say_v st._n paul_n

that_o be_v before_o it_o and_o i_o now_o come_v to_o show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o it_o in_o order_n to_o which_o i_o be_o to_o acquaint_v you_o first_o that_o when_o st._n paul_n say_v i_o be_o crucify_a with_o christ_n he_o do_v not_o say_v this_o of_o himself_o alone_o as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v some_o extraordinary_a privilege_n which_o he_o have_v above_o all_o other_o

every_o one_o here_o present_a if_o we_o real_o and_o true_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o live_v up_o to_o our_o belief_n for_o what_o he_o here_o say_v in_o the_o singular_a number_n i_o be_o

principle_n come_v from_o renew_a nature_n and_o move_v he_o to_o grace_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o be_v plain_a from_o the_o text._n for_o if_o st._n paul_n have_v not_o have_v these_o two_o self_n he_o can_v no_o more_o have_v say_v i_o be_o crucify_v and_o yet_o i_o live_v than_o one_o and_o the_o same_o man_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v dead_a and_o alive_a at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n three_o i_o be_o to_o acquaint_v you_o that_o when_o christ_n be_v crucify_a upon_o the_o cross_n he_o do_v not_o endure_v that_o shameful_a and_o curse_a death_n for_o his_o own_o but_o for_o our_o sake_n what_o he_o do_v and_o suffer_v there_o be_v not_o in_o a_o private_a but_o a_o public_a capacity_n as_o he_o be_v the_o head_n the_o root_n and_o the_o representer_n of_o all_o the_o
