thing_n that_o concern_v salvation_n they_o be_v make_v we_o by_o god_n free_a gift_n among_o which_o be_v christ_n his_o righteousness_n by_o it_o therefore_o as_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o we_o may_v be_v justify_v before_o god_n and_o accept_v to_o life_n everlasting_a ii_o object_n if_o a_o sinner_n be_v justify_v by_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n than_o every_o believer_n shall_v be_v as_o righteous_a as_o christ_n and_o that_o can_v not_o be_v ans._n the_o proposition_n be_v false_a for_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v not_o apply_v to_o we_o according_a as_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n neither_o according_a to_o the_o same_o measure_n nor_o the_o same_o manner_n for_o his_o obedience_n in_o fulfil_v the_o law_n be_v above_o adam_n righteousness_n yea_o above_o the_o righteousness_n of_o all_o angel_n for_o they_o be_v all_o but_o creature_n and_o their_o obedience_n the_o obedience_n of_o creature_n but_o christ_n his_o obedience_n be_v the_o obedience_n or_o righteousness_n of_o god_n so_o term_v rom._n 1._o 17_o 18._o 2._o cor._n 5._o 21._o not_o only_o because_o god_n accept_v of_o it_o but_o because_o it_o be_v in_o that_o person_n which_o be_v very_o god_n when_o christ_n obey_v god_n obey_v and_o when_o he_o suffer_v god_n suffer_v not_o because_o the_o godhead_n suffer_v or_o perform_v any_o obedience_n but_o because_o the_o person_n which_o according_a to_o one_o nature_n be_v god_n perform_v obedience_n and_o suffer_v and_o by_o this_o mean_v his_o righteousness_n be_v of_o infinite_a value_n price_n merit_n and_o efficacy_n hence_o also_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o this_o obedience_n of_o christ_n serve_v not_o only_o for_o the_o justify_n of_o some_o one_o person_n as_o himself_o adam_n do_v but_o of_o all_o and_o every_o one_o of_o the_o elect_a yea_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o justify_v many_o thousand_o world_n now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o point_n this_o righteousness_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n in_o this_o largeness_n and_o measure_n be_v pertain_v to_o we_o in_o a_o more_o narrow_a skantling_n because_o it_o be_v only_o receive_v by_o faith_n shine_v so_o farforth_o as_o it_o serve_v to_o justify_v any_o particular_a believer_n but_o they_o urge_v the_o reason_n further_o say_v if_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o every_o believer_n than_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v a_o saviour_n which_o be_v absurd_a ans._n i_o answer_v as_o before_o and_o yet_o more_o plain_o thus_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v impute_v to_o the_o person_n of_o this_o or_o that_o man_n not_o as_o it_o be_v the_o price_n of_o redemption_n for_o all_o mankind_n but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o price_n of_o redemption_n for_o one_o particular_a man_n as_o for_o example_n christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v impute_v to_o peter_n not_o as_o it_o be_v the_o price_n of_o redemption_n for_o all_o but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o price_n of_o redemption_n for_o peter_n and_o therefore_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v not_o apply_v to_o any_o one_o sinner_n in_o that_o largeness_n and_o measure_n in_o which_o it_o be_v in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n but_o only_o so_o farforth_o as_o it_o serve_v to_o satisfy_v the_o law_n for_o the_o say_a sinner_n &_o to_o make_v his_o person_n accept_v of_o god_n as_o righteous_a and_o no_o further_o iii_o object_n if_o we_o be_v make_v righteous_a by_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n true_o than_o christ_n be_v a_o sinner_n true_o by_o our_o sin_n but_o christ_n be_v not_o indeed_o a_o sinner_n by_o our_o sin_n ans._n we_o may_v with_o reverence_n to_o his_o majesty_n in_o good_a manner_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o sinner_n and_o that_o true_o not_o by_o any_o infusion_n of_o sin_n into_o his_o most_o holy_a person_n but_o because_o our_o sin_n be_v lay_v on_o he_o thus_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o which_o know_v no_o sin_n be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o and_o he_o be_v count_v with_o sinner_n isa_n 53._o 13._o yet_o so_o as_o even_o then_o in_o himself_o he_o be_v without_o blot_n yea_o more_o holy_a than_o all_o man_n and_o angel_n on_o this_o manner_n say_v chrysostome_n 2._o cor._n 3._o god_n permit_v christ_n to_o be_v condemn_v as_o a_o sinner_n again_o he_o make_v the_o just_a one_o to_o be_v a_o sinner_n that_o he_o may_v make_v sinner_n just_a iv_o object_n if_o a_o man_n be_v make_v righteous_a by_o imputation_n than_o god_n judge_v sinner_n to_o be_v righteous_a but_o god_n judge_v no_o sinner_n to_o be_v righteous_a for_o it_o be_v abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n ans._n when_o god_n justifi_v a_o sinner_n by_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o cease_v in_o regard_n of_o guiltiness_n to_o be_v a_o sinner_n &_o to_o who_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n they_o he_o sanctifi_v at_o the_o very_a same_o instant_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n give_v also_o unto_o original_a corruption_n his_o deadly_a wound_n v._o object_n that_o which_o adam_n never_o lose_v be_v never_o give_v by_o christ_n but_o he_o never_o lose_v impute_v righteousness_n therefore_o it_o be_v never_o give_v unto_o he_o ans._n the_o proposition_n be_v not_o true_a for_o save_v faith_n that_o be_v never_o lose_v by_o adam_n be_v give_v to_o we_o in_o christ_n and_o adam_n never_o have_v this_o privilege_n that_o after_o the_o first_o grace_n shall_v follow_v the_o 11._o second_o and_o thereupon_o be_v leave_v to_o himself_o he_o fall_v from_o god_n and_o yet_o this_o mercy_n be_v vouchsafe_v to_o all_o believer_n that_o after_o their_o first_o conversion_n god_n will_v still_o confirm_v they_o with_o new_a grace_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n they_o persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n and_o whereas_o they_o say_v that_o adam_n have_v not_o impute_v righteousness_n i_o answer_v that_o he_o have_v the_o same_o for_o substance_n though_o not_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o apply_v by_o imputation_n vi_o object_n justification_n be_v eternal_a but_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v not_o eternal_a for_o it_o cease_v in_o the_o end_n of_o this_o life_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o that_o which_o justifi_v a_o sinner_n answ._n the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n be_v everlasting_a for_o he_o that_o be_v esteem_v righteous_a in_o this_o life_n by_o christ_n his_o righteousness_n be_v accept_v as_o righteous_a for_o ever_o and_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n grant_v in_o this_o life_n be_v for_o ever_o continue_v and_o though_o sanctification_n be_v perfect_a in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v yet_o shall_v it_o not_o justify_v for_o we_o must_v conceive_v it_o not_o otherwise_o after_o this_o life_n but_o as_o a_o fruit_n spring_v from_o the_o impute_a righteousness_n of_o christ_n without_o which_o it_o can_v not_o be_v and_o a_o good_a child_n will_v not_o cast_v away_o the_o first_o garment_n because_o his_o father_n give_v he_o a_o second_o and_o what_o if_o inward_a righteousness_n be_v perfect_a in_o the_o end_n of_o this_o life_n shall_v we_o therefore_o make_v it_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o justification_n god_n forbid_v for_o the_o righteousness_n whereby_o sinner_n be_v justify_v must_v be_v have_v in_o the_o time_n of_o this_o life_n before_o the_o pang_n of_o death_n ii_o difference_n about_o the_o manner_n of_o justification_n all_o both_o papist_n and_o protestant_n agree_v that_o a_o sinner_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n this_o agreement_n be_v only_o in_o word_n and_o the_o difference_n between_o we_o be_v great_a indeed_o and_o it_o may_v be_v reduce_v to_o these_o three_o head_n first_o the_o papist_n say_v that_o a_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n understand_v a_o general_a or_o a_o catholic_a faith_n whereby_o a_o man_n believe_v the_o arcicle_n of_o religion_n to_o be_v true_a but_o we_o hold_v that_o the_o faith_n which_o justifi_v be_v a_o particular_a faith_n whereby_o we_o apply_v to_o ourselves_o the_o promise_n of_o righteousness_n and_o life_n everlasting_a by_o christ._n and_o that_o our_o opinion_n be_v the_o truth_n i_o have_v prove_v before_o but_o i_o will_v add_v a_o reason_n or_o twain_o i._o reason_n the_o faith_n whereby_o we_o live_v be_v that_o faith_n whereby_o we_o be_v justify_v but_o the_o faith_n whereby_o we_o live_v spiritual_o be_v a_o particular_a faith_n whereby_o we_o apply_v christ_n unto_o ourselves_o as_o paul_n say_v gal._n 2._o 20_o i_o live_v that_o be_v spiritual_o by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n which_o faith_n he_o show_v to_o be_v a_o particular_a faith_n in_o christ_n in_o the_o very_a word_n follow_v who_o have_v love_a i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o particular_o and_o in_o this_o manner_n of_o believe_v paul_n be_v and_o be_v a_o example_n to_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v save_v 1._o tim._n 1._o 16._o and_o phil._n 3._o 15._o ii_o reason_n that_o which_o we_o be_v to_o ask_v of_o god_n
in_o effect_n be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o master_n caluin_n that_o when_o we_o begin_v by_o faith_n to_o know_v somewhat_o and_o 5._o have_v a_o desire_n to_o learn_v more_o this_o may_v be_v term_v a_o unexpressed_a faith_n second_o this_o point_n of_o doctrine_n serve_v to_o rectify_v and_o in_o part_n to_o expound_v suudrie_n catechism_n in_o that_o they_o seem_v to_o propound_v faith_n unto_o man_n at_o so_o high_a a_o reach_n as_o few_o can_v attain_v unto_o it_o define_v it_o to_o be_v a_o certain_a and_o full_a persuasion_n of_o god_n love_n and_o favour_n in_o christ_n whereas_o though_o every_o faith_n be_v for_o his_o nature_n a_o certain_a persuasion_n yet_o only_o the_o strong_a faith_n be_v the_o full_a persuasion_n therefore_o faith_n be_v not_o only_o in_o general_a term_n to_o be_v define_v but_o also_o the_o degree_n and_o measure_n thereof_o be_v to_o be_v expound_v that_o weak_a one_o to_o their_o comfort_n may_v be_v true_o inform_v of_o their_o estate_n and_o though_o we_o teach_v there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o implicit_a faith_n which_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n yet_o none_o must_v hereupon_o take_v a_o occasion_n to_o content_v themselves_o therewith_o but_o labour_v to_o increase_v and_o go_v on_o from_o faith_n to_o faith_n and_o so_o indeed_o will_v every_o one_o do_v that_o have_v any_o beginning_n of_o true_a faith_n be_v they_o never_o so_o little_a and_o he_o which_o think_v he_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o believe_v and_o content_v himself_o therewith_o have_v indeed_o no_o true_a desire_n to_o believe_v the_o difference_n the_o pillar_n of_o the_o romish_a church_n lay_v down_o this_o ground_n that_o faith_n in_o his_o own_o nature_n be_v not_o a_o knowledge_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v but_o a_o reverend_a assent_n unto_o they_o whether_o they_o be_v know_v or_o unknown_a hereupon_o they_o build_v that_o if_o a_o man_n know_v some_o necessary_a point_n of_o religion_n as_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o godhead_n of_o the_o trinity_n of_o christ_n incarnation_n and_o of_o our_o redemption_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v needless_a to_o know_v the_o rest_n by_o a_o particular_a or_o distinct_a knowledge_n and_o it_o suffice_v to_o give_v his_o consent_n to_o the_o church_n and_o to_o believe_v as_o the_o pastor_n believe_v behold_v a_o ruinous_a build_n upon_o a_o rot_a foundation_n for_o faith_n contain_v a_o knowledge_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v believe_v and_o knowledge_n be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n and_o nothing_o be_v believe_v that_o be_v not_o know_v isai_n 53._o 11._o the_o knowledge_n of_o my_o righteous_a servant_n shall_v justify_v many_o &_o joh._n 17._o 2._o this_o be_v eternal_a life_n to_o know_v the_o eternal_a god_n and_o who_o thou_o have_v send_v jesus_n christ._n in_o these_o place_n by_o knowledge_n be_v mean_v faith_n ground_v upon_o knowledge_n whereby_o we_o know_v and_o be_v assure_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n belong_v unto_o us._n second_o this_o kind_n of_o assent_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o ignorance_n for_o when_o man_n shall_v be_v teach_v that_o for_o sundry_a point_n of_o religion_n they_o may_v believe_v as_o the_o church_n believe_v 15._o that_o the_o study_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o to_o be_v require_v of_o they_o yea_o that_o to_o their_o good_a they_o may_v be_v bar_v the_o read_n of_o they_o so_o be_v it_o they_o know_v some_o principal_a thing_n contain_v in_o the_o article_n of_o say_v that_o durande_n common_a believer_n be_v not_o bind_v express_o to_o believe_v all_o the_o article_n of_o the_o apostle_n creed_n altisiodoransis_n that_o it_o suffice_v they_o to_o believe_v the_o article_n by_o a_o implicit_a faith_n by_o believe_v as_o the_o church_n believe_v few_o or_o none_o will_v have_v care_n to_o profit_n in_o knowledge_n and_o yet_o god_n commandment_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v grow_v in_o knowledge_n and_o that_o his_o word_n shall_v dwell_v plenteous_o in_o we_o col._n 3._o 16._o again_o the_o papist_n say_v that_o the_o devotion_n of_o the_o ignorant_a be_v often_o service_v better_o accept_v then_o that_o which_o be_v do_v

article_n of_o faith_n be_v believe_v general_o of_o the_o whole_a church_n only_o by_o a_o simple_a or_o implicit_a say_v which_o afterward_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o a_o general_a counsel_n be_v

be_v mention_v a_o double_a league_n between_o man_n and_o man_n country_n and_o country_n the_o first_o be_v the_o league_n of_o concord_n when_o one_o kingdom_n bind_v itself_o to_o live_v in_o
