He was justified in a double regard.1
- 1Christ justified
In regard of God,1 he was justified, and cleared from our sins that he took upon him; He bore our sins upon the Tree, and bore them away, that they should never appear again to our discomfort. He was made a Curse for us: How came Christ to be cleared of our sins, that lay upon him? When by the Spirit, by his Divine ⟨p. 76⟩Nature, he raised himself from the dead; so he was justified from that that God laid upon him, for he was our Surety: Now the Spirit raising him from the dead, showed that the Debt was fully discharged, because our Surety was out of Prison. All things are first in Christ, and then in us; he was acquitted and justified from our sins, and then we.

When by the Spirit, by his Divine ⟨p. 76⟩Nature, he raysed himselfe from the dead; so he was justified from that that God layd upon him, for he was our Suretie: Now the Spirit raysing him from the dead, shewed that the Debt was fully discharged, because our Suretie was out of Prison.
