Answ. If the passive Obedience be taken in conjunction with the active, we grant the sufficiency of it to all intents and purposes; but if it be taken disjunctly from the active, then we grant its sufficiency for such and such ends or effects, but not for all. For the removal of guilt, the satisfying of the penal part of the Law, the freeing from Hell and death, so it was sufficient; but besides this, the preceptive part of the Law was to be fulfilled, the condition of life was to be performed, the Sinner was to be made positively righteous, Heaven was to be merited; now as to these, abstractly from the active obedience of Christ, the passive was not sufficient. Upon his dying Believers shall not die or be damned, or be look'd upon as guilty; but for their being righteous and entitled to eternal life, Christ must actively fulfil the Law; |
