3. Note, that it is ordinarily agreed by Protestants, that Christs Righteousness is imputed to us in the same sense as our sins are said to be imputed to him; (even before they are committed many Ages;) which cleareth fully the whole Controversy to those that are but willing to understand, and blaspheme not Christ; so Maresius ubi supra: Quemadmodum propter deliquia nostra ei imputata punitus fuit Christus in terris; ita & propter ejus Justitiam nobis imputatam coronamur in Caelis. And Joh. ⟨p. 46⟩Crocius Disput. 10. p. 502. And Vasseur in his solid Disp. Thes. Sedan. Vol. 2. pag. 1053, 1054. While he mentioneth only Satisfaction for our Justification, yet § 27. saith that Satisfaction is imputed to us, and placeth Christs Imputed Righteousness in his Obedience to the death; and saith that this satisfying Obedience, in suffering, is our Imputed Righteousness. Ea igitur Obedientia Christi qua Patri paruit usque ad mortem crucis, qua coram Patre comparuit ut voluntatem ejus perficeret, qua a Patre missus, ut nos sui sanguinis effusion redimeret, justitiae ejus pro peccatis nostris abunde satisfecit; ea inquam obedientia ex gratia Patris imputata & donata, illa justitia est qua justificamur. And they ordinarily use the similitude of the Redemption of a Captive, and Imputing the Price to him. He addeth (Hence we may gather that as Christ was made sin, so we are made the Righteousness of God, that is by Imputation] which is true.
