SECT. XIV. Of Justification by Sentence of the Judge.
211. The second sort of Justification, which is by Sentence, is done by Christ as Judge, and so is an act of his Kingly Office.
212. Therefore were it true (as it is not) that justifying Faith were only the receiving or believing in Christ as a Justifier of us, it would not be a believing in him in his Priestly Office only but in act: For he merited our Justification as a humbled Servant, and a Sacrifice: He ⟨p. 86⟩giveth it us in Right by his Covenant or Law of Grace as King and Benefactor: He promulgateth it as Prophet; He passeth the Sentences as King and Judge; He executively taketh off the penalty, and glorifieth us as King and Benefactor. There is no Justification by a partial Faith.
