A91793 Justification by Christ alone, a fountaine of life and comfort, declaring that the whole worke of mans salvation was accomplished by Jesus Christ upon the crosse, in that he tooke away & healed all his, from all sinnes, and presented them to God holy without fault in his sight. And the objections against this are answered, for the consolation of such as beleive; & that they may not ascribe that which is proper to Christs preistly office, to their beleiving. / By Samuel Richardson.

Christ hath under went all the curse that all his chosen might not suffer any at all of it and seeing none could be redeemed from the curse without his death Christ did dye and there shall none be saved but such as were by his death then redemed for he will dye no more Heb. 9 25 26. 6. Because that liberty which the Saints stand in and injoy when they beleeve was not procured by their conversion and faith c. but by Christ upon the Crosse Stand fast in the liberty a herewith Christ hath made us free Gal. 5. 1. This liberty Beleevers now injoy but it was purchased then by Christs death for then we were perfected for ever Heb. 10. 14. Yet untill men be converted they are visibly in a state of wrath and death 7. We were never since in our sins therefore the curse hath no place it hath nothing to doe with us we have no sin for all our sins were laid upon Christ as Isa. 53. 6. Christ was made sin for us 2 Cor. 5. 21. and Curse for us Gal. 3. 13. He then destroyed the power of death and the Divell for us Heb. 2. 14. or else we cannot be saved Consider Rom. 5. 18. 19. the head and the members viz. Christ and all the Elect are but one Heb. 2. 11. they make but one body one Christ 1 Cor. 12. 12. therefore we were crucified with Christ Gal. 2. 20. dead and buried with Christ Rom. 6. and were quickned together with Christ and raised up together with Christ Ephes. 2. 5 6. we were without God afar off are made nigh by the blo●d of Christ the enmity was slaine and reconciliation was made by the Crosse and by nothing else Eph. 2. 12. to 17. So that never since Christs death none of the Elect are under wrath or curse for Christ hath fullfilled the law for us Lo this is the liberty of the Sons of God though none but Beleevers can know that they are Sons or elected a Beleever he may triumph and say Blessed be God who hath given us victory by Jesus Christ the law with the curse is dead the visage of it terribly affright many But I see it is without any life therefore law I care not for thee I feare thee not doe thy worst thou hast no power to hurt me I will not be justified by thee I will not let thee come into my conscience to trouble me I will not heare thee nor have any thing to doe with thee no law no curse no Divell no death nor any thing else cannot hurt me nor any of the Elect For we are not under the law but under grace Rom. 6. 14. I may be this light will offend some for when the Sun breakes forth and shines in its strength it 's an offence to weake eyes because they are not able to behold it It 's reported of the Eagle that shee can looke upon the Sun and shee tryeth and rejecteth those to be her young that cannot looke on the Sun when it shineth it it's strength So none but Eagle eyed Saints can indure to looke upon the Sonne of righteousnesse thus shining in his glory And as it is also observed that the light of the Sun puts out the fire and the light of the Candle c. as not induring any light but it self So it 's here where this Sonne Jesus Christ comes out goes all fire and candle light not a sparke of our own fire remaines but all is in an instant put quite out not one sparke is left to warme or comfort us withall Isay 50. 10. All our good workes and righteousnesse is departed from us but 't is no matter let them all go because Christ is come he is light and heat and a better strength and comfort we need no other light now Christ is come and shines most powerfully and gloriously in his brightnesse without the helpe of any thing else that so Christ may be all in all Col. 3. 11. 1 Cor. 15. 28. What then shall we sunne because we are not under the law but ungrace God forbid Rom. 6. 15. When the Apostle had taught that we were redeemed from the law and the law was abolished by Christ and we were dead to the law c. It seemes by the Apostles words that some did judge that he destroyed the law therefore he saith doe we then make void the Law God forbid yea we establish the law Rom. 3. 31. The law is holy just and good this was necessary to silence Cavileers and also to informe such beleevers who through mistake might thinke that they were lawlesse now they might do any thing which is a miserable mistake all that beleeve are bound to observe the morall Law now we are dead to Moses Law but not to Christs now we are married to another Rom. 7. 4. So Christ we ought to be subject to him and obey his commands and though we may not heare Moses we must heare Christ he hath a yoak for our necks and we must put it on and bear it Take my yoak upon you Mat. 11. 29. Christ gives the same law to be a rule to all his to walk in and obey him in Christs Testament is his will which is full of commands I grant we have nothing to doe as a cause or meanes of our exceptation justification or salvatition c. Yet we have much to doe for to honour and glorifie God and herein is my father glorified that ye bring forth much fruit John 15. 8. And although there is no curse or wrath annexed to Christs commands as there was to Moses law Gal. 3. 10. to constrain us to keep the law or to be inflicted upon us when we faile and come short yet know the power of divine love sweetly and violently constrains a soule to obey Christs words The grace of God that bringeth salvation teacheth us to deny ungodlinesse and worldly lusts and to live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world Titus 2. 11. 3. Christ saith if any man love me he will keep my wards John 14. 23. and 15 16. See Ephes. 2 10.

John 1. 6. they mock themselves and others let them consider Gal. 5. 13. to 23. and 6. 5. 7. 8. Rom. 2. 17 c. and all men are to look upon them to be lyars yea and the basest among men that turn Gods grace into wantonnesse For as a man beleeves so he obeyes and as a mans workes are so is his faith good or bad Where Christ
