Contr. Christ never had sin to repent of; and it is not proper to say one repenteth of another's sin; Christ believed his Father; but had no use for that faith in a Mediator which we must have. He that repenteth not, and believeth not himself, shall be damned: Therefore you may see how Christ repented and believed for us.
Contr. Christ never had sin to repent of; and it is not proper to say one repenteth of anothers sin; Christ believed his Father; but had no use for that faith in a Mediatour which we must have. He that repenteth not, and believeth not himself, shall be damned: Therefore you may see how Christ repented and believed for us.
Error 57. A man that trusteth to be justified at the day of Judgement, against the charge of unbelief, impenitency and hypocrisy, by his own faith, repentance and sincerity, as his particular subordinate Righteousness, and not by Christs Righteousness imputed only sinneth against free grace.
Errour 57. A man that trusteth to be justified at the day of Judgement, against the charge of unbelief, impenitency and hypocrisie, by his own faith, repentance and sincerity, as his particular subordinate Righteousness, and not by Christs Righteousness imputed only sinneth against free grace.
Contr. Christs Righteousness is imputed or given to none, nor shall justify any that are true Unbelievers, Impenitent or Hypocrites: Therefore if any such person trust to be justified by Christ, he deceiveth him. If the […] be, Thou art an Infidel or impenitent, it is frivolous to say, But Christ obeyed, suffered, or believed, or repented for me. But he that will then be justified against that charge, must say, and say truly, I truly believed, repented and obeyed.
